On their way to the Pedelian estate, Roxana steps out of the carriage for a moment. The Pedelian knights were surprised to see her come outside all of a sudden, but before they could do anything, Roxana fell down onto the snow, like a lifeless body.

Cassis, who was leading the group of knights, dismounted his horse after he heard the ruckus. When he saw Roxana on the ground, he immediately ran after her and held her body. To him, Roxana's body was almost lifeless, she was nearing death's door. Her body was exuding a very poisonous air, and it was so intense that only Cassis can withstand the poisonous effects, so he warned his knights to stay away from them. He remembered healing Roxana five minutes ago before they headed for Pedelian. He thought Roxana's condition would stay stable for a while but didn't expect her to collapse so quickly. It meant that she was still very weak and Cassis became desperate to save her Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

As we all know, Cassis has healing abilities which grow stronger depending on the intensity of body contact or skinship. And one of the best ways to heal a nearly-dead person from dying is by kissing them on their lips. So without worrying about the place and the people around them, he kissed Roxana right then and there, and moved inside the carriage as he carried Roxana while still kissing her lips. (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ (▰˘◡˘▰)

The Pedelian knights were shocked to see their young master care for Roxana to this extent. It was at this moment that the Pedelians confirmed what position Roxana holds among the Pedelians. To Cassis and the Pedelians, Roxana was not a hostage, but a VIP. (≧∀≦)

Well, that's all for spoilers. Moments like these really make me love this pair more and more.

This is what Cassis told Roxana after he "kidnaps" her from the Agriches.

So it happens during the Agriche Downfall arc. Roxana fainted due to blood loss and excess poison flowing through her blood while the Agriche mansion was surrounded by flames. She used the abilities of the poison butterflies too much, and it affected her body a lot. She was walking away from Agriche because she didn't want to stay there anymore.

According to Cassis, Roxana's expression looked like a person who was "looking for a place to die". And that really shocked Cassis, so he became even more determined to take Roxana with him and take care of her in Pedelian.

Roxana, in response, told Cassis that such things were normal for her. As the master of the poison butterflies, her body would not be able to last any longer, and once she dies, her butterflies will feed on her flesh until nothing is left of her. Cassis then kneeled in front of Roxana and told her that if she is going to die anyway, then she should give the remaining time of her life to him. He wanted her to be by his side until her life ends. （/TДT)/

Roxana said that she is fine with any place as long as it's not Agriche, so she more or less agreed to live with Cassis in Pedelian. Cassis holds her hand and kisses it, as if to honor his oath. Roxana said that Cassis's eyes had a dark glow to it when he did that (Cassis borderline Yandere/Possessive moment?) (▰˘◡˘▰)

I will continue with pt. 2 in a separate comment.

hello sweeties!! I have some spoilers from the novel! I haven't finished reading since I essentially forgot to finish it BUT I know what's going to happen in the next few arcs. I'll answer some questions I saw to clarify a few things (ㆁωㆁ)


— Why isn't the crown prince the ML?
The CP isn't the ML because he is toxic as fck. The reason he became an assistant teacher at the academy was to open a sealed door. This sealed door supposedly has the power to secure him the throne. He has a burning grudge and inferiority to the ML. He became a TA to keep the ML in check while also searching for the door.

When the CP began to like Rubia, in the novel, he began to obsessively look for the door since he believes it would be the key to make Rubia his. In the novel, he was obsessive with Rubia to the point that Rubia, herself, had to help the ML close the sealed door.

But this seems light, in no way does this seem toxic. WRONG. The sealed door, though said to bring power to the person who opens it/conquers it, ALSO HAS THE SIDE EFFECT OF BRINGING CHAOS TO THE KINGDOM. Mans was really going to open a door to get a girl and win over his own brother. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

And, although its true the CP has more chemistry with Rubia right now. JUST WAIT, til he gets way obsessive cause its creepy. As a girl, CP's obsessiveness was so true to reality that I felt icky ready about him. Our ML though, after realising his feelings, IS REALLY OPEN ABOUT THEM, WHAT A CUTIE!! He respected Rubia and her past, he waited for her and, after being rejected, decided to support her anyway he can with Rubia's word. He legit WAITED til she was ready and maintained an amazing relationship. One of the best portrayals of real love ever!!

—Why is Rubia lazy? And why is she so unwilling to stand out?
This is already partially answered in the manhwa. She has lived many lives and has gotten sick of it. In the novel, it was explained a bit better.

Through her many lives, she lived relatively peacefully save for a few bad lives. Her most recent previous life, before she became Rubia, was horrific. Truthfully, every possible thing that could go wrong in a lifetime happened in that previous lifetime. Since then, Rubia decided to live peacefully as a way to grieve and heal from her previous life.

AND HERE ARE THE SPOILERS!!!!

— a student representative election will happen.
— Rubia was nominated by a few students, without her knowledge, and became a candidate.
— Duke's bitch daughter (I forgot her name) also ran for representative. A clique member (pink haired girly with ponytail drills) also ran is genuinely smart and responsible for vice representative.
— Rubia won and the bitch lost. Clique member won tho so Rubia and her worked a lot.
— Bitch became couldn't accept defeat and devised a plan to stage Rubia in a finance scam.
— Rubia was sent a debt notice. Clique member knows of this and tells Bitch. She regrets it though since Rubia treated her fairly unlike Bitch.
— Rubia takes advantage of the festival to make a food stand to pay her debts. Its successful.
— After the festival, there was a meeting. Bitch tried to make Rubia a fraud but then the plan fails cause ML backed Rubia up with genuine facts. Clique member betrays Bitch and tells the truth.
—Bitch gets arrested.
— Before this fraud claim, Rubia paid her debt. Only to find out it was kind of short. She finds out her older brother is the owner/share holder of the loan company.
— Rubia and her bro meet, bro pays her debt and tell her to come home. Rubia refuses but bro says that their father is ill and wishes for Rubia to see him at least before he gets deathly ill.
— Rubia agrees but after the semester is over. Luckily the semester will be done soon.


AND THATS ALL!!! I think I got a few plot timing wrong but its pretty minor! Ask me anything cause I genuinely love the story (≧▽≦) Have a good day sweeties!
