CH 28.1

Angela stayed by Otto’s side and took care of him intensely.

Otto quickly recovered his condition and noticeably improved his health.

In fact, there was no need for nursing.

Angela was the culprit of the curse.

All she had to do was extend the curse’s validity period while Otto was asleep.

Thanks to that, Otto successfully survived his 25th birthday on January 1st.

‘Of course, she won’t lift the curse even if I die. Ugh. This evil thing.’

Otto clicked his tongue as he watched Angela regulate the intensity of the curse instead of lifting it.

The reason Angela didn’t lift the curse on Otto was simple.

– Insurance.

Now, she acted as if she would withdraw the curse at any time, but Angela was still a monster who could kill Otto anytime.

Now that they were in a relationship, she kept him alive for the time being, but she would activate the curse again if their relationship went sour.

‘Love is bullshit. She’s a psychopath who sees men as toys.’

Otto knew her personality so well that he clicked his tongue inwardly.

After all, she was a psychopath who had even cursed the son of the man she loved, intending to kill him.

That night, instead of having a birthday party, Otto spent time with Angela.

“Happy birthday.”

“Thank you very much.”

Otto smiled at Angela’ congratulations.

“For being by my side like this.”

“You’re welcome.”

“No, you’re my savior. So I have something to say…”

Otto knelt down and presented a ring to Angela.

“Will you…marry me?”

“Oh my goodness!”

“This ring is my late mother’s wedding ring.”

“Really?”

“My father gave it to my mother as a gift when they got married. He passed it on to me before he passed away, and he told me to use it when I proposed to the woman I want to marry.”

“Oh…”

“Please, will you accept my proposal?”

At that moment. ‘The Look in her eyes changed.’

Otto didn’t miss the momentary flash of ghastly madness that ran through Angela’s eyes before disappearing. And his thoughts were very accurate.

‘Hahaha!’ Angela looked down at Otto, who proposed with his mother’s ring, and laughed inwardly.

‘Hey, you b*tch~ Are you watching? Your son is offering you your ring to me? Hahaha~!’

The ring that Otto handed over was what Angela had longed for.

She had thought that the ring should have been on her left, fourth finger, not Otto’s mother’s. But after 25 long years, the ring finally came to her, so it was a new experience for Angela.

‘Oryx, are you watching? Your son gave me the wedding ring you didn’t give me. Hoho! That’s why you should have accepted my love so that you wouldn’t have been in a miserable situation!’

While thinking such ominous and wicked thoughts, Angela stretched her left hand towards Otto.

“I, I like you.”

“Do you accept my feelings?”

“Yes….”

“Then…”

Otto put the ring on Angela’ left hand.

“We promised to get married.”

“Yes.”

“I love you.”

“I love you too.”

At that moment, ‘Ugh, do I really have to do this?’

Otto realized that it was time to kiss Angela, and inwardly groaned.

As someone who knew Angela’ true identity, Otto couldn’t bring himself to kiss him.

But he had to.

To maintain the atmosphere and reassure Angela, he had to give him a passionate kiss.

‘Okay, okay. Pretend it’s a dog. Just pretend it’s a dog.’

Even though he didn’t know what crime the poor dog had committed, Otto closed his eyes and gave Angela a kiss.

Mwah Smooch

Squish Squelch

Wiggle wiggle!

Then, Angela responded passionately to Otto’s kiss by extending her tongue.

‘Eek! Why is her tongue so long!’ Otto shuddered as he felt Angela’s long tongue, like a snake.

The fact that Otto proposed to Angela spread like wildfire.

“I will marry her in a month.”

The next morning at the royal court meeting, the news of Otto’s marriage to Angela was announced.

As soon as she became the queen, Angela began to bully the maids, grabbing them as if she had been waiting for this moment.

“There’s dust here! Can’t you clean properly? You lazy girl!”

“Eek!”

“If I see even a speck of dust in my eyes, you’ll get slapped like this every time!”

The head maid, Olive, was angry at Angela’ tyranny.

“Please, please endure it! Please!”

“Shut up! She’s just a queen of tiny kingdom and a nobody! I’ll rip her from waist in half right now!”

“Please!”

Otto barely calmed down the angry Olive and explained the situation.

“Is that really true?”

“Yes. If I want to live, you have to endure it for a while. Please.”

“Hmm! That creature was an evil witch! I got it! I’ll endure it for the time being!”

“Thank you.”

“However, there is a condition.”

“What is it?”

“After defeating that witch and breaking the curse, start exercising. How long are you going to live with such a flabby body?”

“….”

“Do you hate it?”

“No, no. I should exercise. Uh, well, yes. Haha…hahaha…”

“Good.”

After calming down, Olive, Otto went to talk with Camille.

There was only one way to completely lift the curse of the ‘Wrenched B**tard’, and that was to kill Angela. So, they had to come up with a plan to kill her.

“Why don’t we attack her now? Isn’t this the chance?” Camille asked.

“It’s not the right time,” Otto shook his head. “We can’t just fight her. We’ll never be able to kill her, and we might even be wiped out. We need a plan.”

“I see. How are we going to take her down?” Camille asked.

“There is a way,” Otto whispered the plan to Camille.

“Is that really her weakness?” Camille asked in surprise.

“It is. But we need another month to complete the preparations. We just have to hold out until then,” Otto said.

The key was to endure for the next month while trying to appease Angela as much as possible, and prevent her from revealing her true form.
