Obsessed with Regressors

hat?’ at Eugenie’s attitude as she shook his hand, but Eugenie’s expression was still soft.

“Hey, the flower shop.”

It didn’t seem to be limiting.
Another man who was with the man thought so and intervened.
Then Eugenie tilted her head and asked.

“It can’t be.”

“No, because I saw it.”

“Did you see it wrong?”

“Your sister? Weren’t we talking about your sister?”

“My sisters are on the second floor of this store.
I think you misunderstood.”

Eugenie grinned to give the men a chance to back off.
She didn’t know what these men were trying to do to her, but she knew they were trying to drag her out of the bar.
Because she didn’t want to make a fuss, she was trying to make them back off.
It would be a decent ending for both parts if they backed off at this point rather than making a fuss over her by paying attention.
But at least that’s a story that only works for those who have common sense, and there’s no such thing as common sense for those who want to sell out underage girls.

The men grabbed her arm to drag Eugenie away.
Then Eugenie quickly stepped on her man’s foot.

“Shit!”

The man groaned and sat down.
The other man and the bar owner, who were in the group, opened their eyes wide as to what this was all about.
Meanwhile, Eugenie quickly took a step back from the men.
And right away she started going up the stairs to this floor.

“You, you bitch!”

Really, that lady shouldn’t have come alone.
The owner thought so and tried to stop the men.
But the next moment, a black shadow appeared behind the men’s backs.

“Uh?”

They couldn’t even hear him come in.
Everyone was staring at Eugenie and the men, and they were unaware of his presence.
While the owner was startled, Elliot reached out to the men and said,

“Say it again.”

When did this kid come in? The men tried to back away from Elliot.
But first, his hands grabbed the men’s necks.

“No.
Do not say it.”

After saying that, Elliott bumped the two men’s heads.
Along with the sound of ‘Puck!’ there was the sound of the men’s heads crashing.
He said calmly after throwing the bodies of the men who were drooping to the ground.

“I don’t want to hear your voice.”

Eugenie, who came up to this floor, stopped in surprise when she saw the door that opened into a narrow hallway.
She had heard that a bar like this usually used this floor as an inn.
But it’s the first time she had actually been in.
Of course, the same went for entering a bar.

“Julia!”

She didn’t know which room Julia was in.
Eugenie called Julia’s name in the hallway and waited for a while.
Then Julia, hearing her voice, slightly opened the door and stuck her head out.

“Julia!”

Seeing Julia’s face, Eugenie was delighted and called out to her and ran.
And she hugged Julia tightly.

‘Oh my god.
I was shocked and my heart is still beating fast.
Hiding in an inn on the second floor of a bar like this?’

She hugged Julia for a while, then she said.

“It is dangerous.
To see the two of you riding in a omnibus.”

Julia knew they were going to be scolded by Eugenie, but she smiled as she looked at Lauren with an expression that said that.
Eugenie, who said that now that she had spoken to Sir Escolee, they need to think about what to say to her father, turned her head towards Lauren.

And she let out a sigh.

“I’m sorry, Liz.
I was too late.”

Thinking that Eugenie would scold her too, Lauren widened her eyes at her sudden apology.
Was she apologizing? Eugenie Biscon? The Eugenie Biscon that Lauren knew was not one to apologize to anyone.
No, to be precise, that was the Eugenie Biscon, whom she heard in her dreams.

She was a rare witch.
The Iron Lady.
Merciless without blood or tears.

These were the qualifiers people used whenever she heard them talk about Eugenie Biscon in her dreams.
There were even more outrageous words.

“I found out about Lord Sekei.
Unfortunately, he wasn’t a very nice person.”

Eugenie said that and sighed again.
Lord Sekei, who said that she liked women very much, said, to be precise, that he liked little women. 

‘She is a young girl, not a young woman.’

Oliver spoke euphemistically, but Eugenie knew what that meant.
And the story that Lord Masterson wanted Lord Sekei to invest in his business.
Eugenie wanted to believe that Lord Masterson would not sell his younger relative for the investment.
However, Lauren felt threatened to the point that she fled in her omnibus, and she once called Eugenie for help.

“Let me talk to Lord Masterson.”

Eugenie said so and held out her hand towards Lauren.
When she said that she should go back to her house, Lauren looked at Eugenie for a moment.

She didn’t know if she could trust her.
There was no one to trust in the life she went through in her dreams.
She had no friends, and she had no one to drink tea with, so she drank with the maid who worked in her house.
She even let the maid out knowing that he was swearing at her behind her back.

“Lady Viscon.”

Soon after, Elliot, who had taken care of the first floor, came up to the second floor and called Eugenie.
He saw Eugenie and Julia standing in the hallway, checked Lauren in her room, and then asked Eugenie.

“Shall we go now?”
