The Butterfly Trap

Side story 7

Eventually the relationship between him and Sicily again improved, it is true that so many trials that blocked the relationship between him and the girl even though the incident even made her love deeper.

" After all this is done, I will resign from the commander of the Taurus faction and only spend our days in the Dagaras region peacefully" he murmured as he flipped through the documents on his desk.

Moments later the door was knocked from the outside and Gawain entered with some documents in his hand.

" Based on the letter coming from the incoming spy, there will be chaos that will occur during the upcoming tournament festival Sir, should we share this information with the other Faction Sir?" ask after paying his respects.

" No, we still don't know who the enemy is and who the allies are right now, so it's better to gather the elite members of the Taurus army on guard!"

" Said the mess they'd use to find the secret room where Noah Mcgnagal's research books were stored"

" Let it go, no one knows where the secret room is except the last heir of the Mcgnagal family"

" What do you do when you find it?"

" What do you mean? When I find that last mcgnanal successor, I will immediately eliminate him, no matter who it is!"

" Is it necessary to mobilize an army to search for him sir?"

" No need, I don't intend to eliminate him by killing, I'll make a deal with him, I'm sure he's hiding for fear of his life being threatened but if we promise to protect him, I'll make a deal, I think he'll agree"

" Well sir, I will return to headquarters, is there any other order sir?"

" No, go!" zurich answered back to the documents he had on his desk.

A few minutes later the door of her room was knocked back, she was irritated that her concentration was disturbed but she still let the person knocking at the entrance, she was in front of her standing a panting female servant.

" Mister, Miss Sicily is unconscious!" he said he still painstakingly managed his breathing.

Zurich's eyes were wide open, the pen fell out of his hands, his body was helpless but he immediately stood up and walked quickly out of his room, in the middle of the room Gawin was holding onto the drooping Sicily.

Zurich took the girl straight to the room, she was so afraid that something bad might happen to her, that she couldn't afford to lose the girl once again, fortunately Gawin had already ordered the waiter to call Penelope first .

" How is he doing?" zurich asked impatiently.

His face described a worry that had never been seen by everyone in the residence, even his eyes were glazed as he waited for a reply from the man.

" I did not find any disease Your Majesty, I am a matter of Psychology, maybe the patient is under pressure"

" Are you playing around with me, how could he faint so much because he's under pressure?"

" His psychology is different, Your Majesty, some are able to withstand a pressure so that he remains standing upright no matter what the problems that occur, some are immediately uprooted when they are not able to face the problem"

" It's bullshit!"

Penelope was quite trembling to hear Zurich's words, she realized that if she mispronounced a little then her head would roll on the floor first, he tried to convince the man who could not think clearly that the girl lying in front of them was fine.

Zurich nodded his head and Penelope resigned after convincing Zurich of Sicily's condition.

Zurich sat beside the bed holding the hand of his idol, he repeatedly kissed the hand and asked the girl to wake up.

" I don't know what kind of problem makes you like this baby, I know maybe being next to me wasn't your choice but I was a selfish human being, I'd rather you hate me as long as you stay by my side"

He again extended the face that lay pale, he stroked the cheek of the girl and he kissed her forehead then he sat back beside her, his hand still tightly grasping the girl's hand.

" Please baby, you should be fine, don't scare me like this, I'm really afraid you're okay"

" I'm sorry I didn't want to let you go, it's because you've become my world, if you walk out of my life I don't know what's going to happen to my life, I can't even imagine my life without you, it's all my fault, I know it but I'm sorry, I still want you"

Zurich continued to be on the Sicilian side until Claude met him to discuss the issue of the upcoming festival, he did not want to leave Sicily even if it was only a minute that made him a little upset but he hid his irritation in front of his boss.

They discussed a few minutes later Zurich asked Claude to replace him to make a decision, he firmly said that he would not leave his side until he regained consciousness.

Claude actually wanted to curse his highly unprofessional superior but considering that after meeting Sicily he could be his human side, Claude simply massaged his chest and left the Dagaras residence.

" SIRAAAAKKKKKKK"

Suddenly Zurich was startled by the cry of Sicily, he immediately approached the girl and was about to touch her but quickly brushed her aside and avoided her, even looking at her with a frightened face.

" Punish me, please.please don't kill me!" said the girl with trembling body.

Zurich was confused, the girl in front of him was crying and begging him, his chest hurt and he felt guilty, she wanted to know what kind of dream frightened her like that but Zurich was unable to say any more and tightly hugged the girl's body until she fell asleep again.

After the incident Zurich became increasingly concerned about Sicily, he asked Penelope to come back to his residence to help Sicily, thankfully when she woke up Sicily had already returned to her usual self.

He also treated Zurich as usual and also asked some questions about the upcoming festival, she tells the girl that she will be away for a few days to greet the invited guests and it seems that the girl has no issue with her departure.

The day the festival was waiting for arrived, Zurich was busy taking care of the event so that he did not have time to return to his residence, although the name is a festival, the event also aims to discuss diplomatic relations between countries.

A banquet for invited guests was held that evening, Zurich, who was the only Grand Duke of the kingdom, had to attend even though he refused to part with Sicily any longer, while conversing with Felix, suddenly one of his subordinates approached and whispered something.

" What do you mean? didn't I order you to watch over the residence?" he said with anger.

" I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but there's a sudden business I have to deal with immediately, I'll step down"

" Does this have anything to do with your lover whom I met a moment ago?"

Zurich did not answer but from his reaction Felix could understand that his cousin was frightened and also worried and the first time Felix saw such a sight, even though he wanted to tempt the man, he abandoned his intentions.

" Go, leave the one here to me!" finally said.
