The Im Not Main Character
The Deal with Blodwyn

The banquet just passed. Never did Arcturus expect to be so tired like this attending a noble event.

At first it was peaceful until Arcturus made an appointment to meet with Blodwyn tonight. But after that everything went awry.

The noble girls came to him one by one and discussed things to interest him. But most are curious about the figure of Arcturus itself.

Handsome is doom for introverts who are tired of interacting for long periods. Arcturus was certainly not antisocial, but doing so for a long time drained him mentally.

From the top of his bed Arcturus sighed tiredly. He needed time to be alone and lament his life, but recalling his previous regression clearly left him unable to relax.

“I managed to bring Alda to my side early, pulled Blodwyn to cooperate, and freed princess Ogre. To what extent will the future change, huh?”

Geck! Geck!

“Log.”

Alda who did not use his mask appeared. He used black pajamas that matched his dark charm. But what makes Arcturus curious is why he carries his sword?

Arcturus sat and leaned against his bed, “Is there anything you need, Alda?”

Alda nodded and furrowed his brows, “There is watching us.”

Arcturus's forehead creased in hearing it.

“Can you confirm the direction and quantity?”

Alda nodded as if it were an easy thing, “There is only one person. I'm not sure how, but it's from a considerable distance. Probably the highest place in the city.”

“Ah, so I see,“ Arcturus went out of his bed and put on his clothes. “Well, ignore that as long as he doesn't threaten.”

Arcturus did not care about the spy at all. Even if his goal was to find information, there would be nothing useful he could get.

But it seems that his attitude made Alda unhappy. Arcturus finally sighed and explained.

“It was not the subordinate of the second prince or his group. I know him so don't worry, that guy is just shy.”

“... so.”

Alda was not satisfied but at least with this he would not pursue him any further. And, Arcturus hoped that this stalker would not do the stupid thing that made him hunted.

Arcturus is not confident in being able to stop Alda from doing anything to him.

“Talk to Mary, I'll see Blodwyn. Don't wait for me.”

An important night to determine the relationship in the future will begin. Arcturus did not expect to bring Mary or Alda. After all, it was safer for him to move alone.

Besides that—

• my clothes are in this city.

Arcturus needed to at least do something to the crazy bastard who kept talking in his head before he said anything strange about the God of Death again.

“Thank you for fulfilling my request at this time, Young Master Arcturus.” Blodwyn smiled gently.

Blodwyn who was somehow using after a man's suit with hair tied up to expose his neck, had a refreshing atmosphere.

On the other hand Arcturus only used a white shirt with frayed sleeves.

They were on the second floor of the restaurant with an open view. Arcturus observed the surroundings, it was clear Blodwyn had made a reservation for this floor.

There were some people elsewhere who seemed to be his bodyguards. In addition, there were also some people watching from other places.

“You are very concerned about the environment, yes.”

Blodwyn smiled wryly, “Sorry if this makes you uncomfortable. With what happened this afternoon, I'm afraid Bellion sent a rat.”

Arcturus had no problem with that at all. The thing that surprised him was that his bodyguards were completely unaware of the figure spying on Arcturus personally.

“About what you said earlier, you really know how to remove the curse, right?”

“You certainly know about what happened to me and my family, right?”

The incident that burned her residence and killed the third queen in a cursed fire. Arcturus knew little about it through his experience.

“The fire not only burns, but curses anyone who is exposed to the heat.”

A dangerous fire that gnaws at the body of its victim slowly and gives pain every second.

In the past Arcturus had experienced it and really suffered. He can withstand it but can not do daily activities like Blodwyn.

“Do you have that curse on your body?”

Blodwyn did not answer, he opened his coat and showed his back and chest. His skin was dark red and showed reddish veins.

Black smoke also seemed vague as if it was slowly burning its body. It was far more terrifying than Arcturus had imagined.

‘It's amazing she can act as if she's healthy sentosa.’

“Curse Fire, huh? You are amazing to be able to move with it.”

Blodwyn smiled bitterly, “If it wasn't for consuming Holy Water I wouldn't have survived.”

It's fact. Even the best Holy Water will not be able to cure it and can only minimize the damage and slow it down.

“So, huh? So you want medicine to cure it.”

“Not for me, but my brother, Aaron.”

“Fourth prince? From the news circulating isn't he gone?” Arcturus was very surprised.

He has an amazingly great acting. Arcturus was a great actor in three lives.

“That's just news I spread because Aaron has a more severe condition.”

The Curse Fire burned almost its entire body so that it could not move like Blodwyn.

“So, what do I need to do for you to get that medicine? I hope you don't cheat or anything.” Blodwyn smiled boldly.

Soon those around him reacted to show that Arcturus was besieged.

Arcturus did not care at all and brandished his two fingers.

“Fill my two wishes then you will get it.”

“You're too greedy. What do you want?“ Blodwyn seemed reluctant, but still willing to listen.

“My easiest request, I want money.”

Blodwyn tried to keep his face, but it still seemed obvious that he was confused. It was natural for nobles to ask for money, but in this kind of situation, they would generally ask for more favourable ones.

“Money is not a problem for me. But what is true is—”

“Two million gold pieces.”

Hearing the numbers made Blodwyn choke and cough. One piece of gold was more than enough for a simple commoner to live for a month.

And, Arcturus asked for an amount that would not be able to be spent in a lifetime if living in simplicity.

“I will exchange any information I convey with the amount periodically.”

Arcturus would not directly ask for two million, he knew Blodwyn's current condition did not have that much. Even if there was, it would only make him fall poor.

“It was burdensome, but fair enough. Then your last request? For the record, if you overdo it then I will only receive one condition.”

Arcturus smiled as he sipped his wine, “I'll ask for it later in the future. Don't worry.”

There has not yet come a time where Arcturus needs to mention other conditions.

“Then we go to the main topic,” continued Arcturus. “You need Elixir to recover that curse.”
