Miss Witch, It's Time to Clean Up the Entries - Chapter 46

Inside the simple wooden house, the sunlight was blocked outside by the floral curtains, along with any prying eyes from outside.

Catherine looked at the handsome young man before her, listening to the most touching words of love spoken from his mouth. Her cheeks flushed slightly. Unable to help herself, she reached out, held Leon’s face, and kissed him.

Before Leon could react, he already felt the warm, soft lips.

So, he also responded.

Perhaps physical contact is the fastest way to develop feelings, especially like this.

From Catherine’s inexperienced kiss, it could be judged that this was definitely the young girl’s first kiss.

She didn’t even know how to respond to Leon’s tongue.

“I’m sorry.”

Catherine said apologetically. She thought her behavior just now was a little impolite.

Because although she and Leon had verbally confirmed their engagement, they had essentially only met twice.

Furthermore, documents were needed to acknowledge their legal status.

In a situation like this, it felt more like falling in love.

Catherine didn’t want to give Leon the mistaken impression that she was very greedy, even though he was very generous.

“If you are truly sorry, then let me ambush you once as well.”

Leon said, and bit Catherine’s lips again.

This time, Catherine seemed much more natural.

She was a person willing to learn and improve.

Once passion is ignited, it is hard to extinguish.

Especially for two people who admire each other.

So this kiss lasted for five minutes, intermittently. Their breathing also became rapid.

Finally, their foreheads rested against each other. It seemed only this way could their bodies remain balanced. They smiled at each other, revealing brilliant smiles.

This was the happiest moment Catherine had felt since the destruction of Blue Moon Territory.

It was also the first time in her sixteen years that she had physically contacted someone of the opposite sex like this.

But she knew she could not fall in love with the man before her, even though she was already very moved.

If she succumbed to love, she would become weak.

To accomplish her revenge, she could not be weak.

“There is one more red entry. We can clear it after your body recovers.”

Leon said.

Catherine nodded.

“Let’s go, come back to Green Shade Territory with me.”

Leon stood up, reached out, and pulled Catherine up from the bed.

Catherine nodded slightly. After getting dressed neatly, she put on a black veil hat. The black veil covered her face, preventing others from seeing her appearance clearly.

Pushing open the wooden door, Leon and Catherine walked out of the farmstead one after the other and got into their respective carriages.

Mina and Knight Kage Mori both breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Catherine was alright.

Knight Kage Mori loaded the luggage onto the carriage. Mina followed Catherine and got into the carriage belonging to Blue Moon Territory.

Although this seemingly ordinary small carriage had only two horses and the compartment could only accommodate a maximum of four people.

But it had repeatedly carried them away from danger. It was a well-designed carriage from Blue Moon Territory, equipped with magic stones.

Its speed was four or five times faster than ordinary carriages.

It was one of the pieces of equipment that could not be abandoned.

“Miss Catherine, are you alright?”

Mina asked with concern.

“I’m fine.”

Catherine said.

“Did Lord Leon trouble you? I just heard your particularly pained screams.”

Mina asked, biting her lip.

“No, Lord Leon is a very gentle person.”

Catherine said with a smile, “Mina, you don’t need to worry about me. This is already the best option for us right now.”

“But… did you see the Lady Witch and maids around Lord Leon? They seem to have a very ambiguous relationship with Lord Leon.”

Mina couldn’t help but start worrying about Catherine’s future situation. The Moria family’s philandering reputation was well-known throughout the country.

It was said that old Lord Moria married 33 wives and concubines, and also had many unregistered lovers.

It was said that old old Lord Moria, who lived in the Imperial Capital, married 7 wives and concubines, had 3 official mistresses, and no fewer than double-digit illegitimate children.

If based on this proportion, Leon would have even more.

Although it was normal for a Lord to have mistresses, Mina still couldn’t help but worry about Catherine.

“Mina, this is a good thing for me.”

“Why? Miss Catherine.”

Mina looked at her young lady with great incomprehension. As the esteemed heir of Blue Moon Territory, she shouldn’t be so humble.

“Because he will discover that no one can tolerate his philandering nature better than me. No matter how many lovers he has in the future, I will not care.”

Catherine had already made up her mind to focus on revenge, so she wouldn’t mind if her fiancé was a man who showed affection everywhere.

She even hoped that Leon wouldn’t spend too much time and attention on her, as long as he lent her enough power.

This was essentially a transaction. Was it not too greedy to still crave exclusive love within a transaction?

Catherine was not a greedy person. She was a very restrained, calm, and intelligent person. She knew that a momentary flutter of the heart meant nothing.

Past suffering had made her mature prematurely, even though she was only 16 years old.

“Miss Catherine, you can have more.”

Mina said with a pained heart.

“No, I already have enough.”

Catherine wiped away tears that had fallen without her knowing.

“I have countless times wanted to escape that high tower. When I left, I always dreamed of returning to the high tower. My only wish now is just revenge.”

“Miss Catherine.”

Mina lowered her head and said nothing more.

Knight Kage Mori also remained silent the entire time.

The two carriages traveled together on the muddy country road, making heavy clip-clop sounds. The wheels left clear tracks on the road.

Leon leaned against the luxurious carriage compartment, resting his chin on one hand, staring intently at the fishbowl in Sophie’s hand.

“Why are you raising a tadpole?”

“?”

Sophie looked at Leon in confusion. Her eyes clearly said, isn’t this a fish?

“Although their heads are big, and they both have a small tail, have you noticed that it has no scales, and it’s very pitifully small?”

Leon asked.

Sophie, who had no common sense about life, only then realized she had made a mistake.

“It’s alright. Tadpoles are tenacious and will even evolve into frogs that jump on four legs. Maybe they are easier to raise.”

Leon comforted her.

“Skin the frog and put it in the pot. The soup tastes delicious.”

Annie reminded him.

Sophie hugged the fishbowl, protecting the tadpole she was raising, and moved to a place where Annie couldn’t see it.

“Next time I go out shopping, I will buy two real carp for Miss Sophie.”

Anna said with a smile.

“Don’t be so stingy. Buy Miss Sophie 100 carp.”

Leon said generously, because he guessed that the probability of Sophie keeping one carp alive was 1%. So out of 100, surely at least one would survive, right?

“Alright.”

Anna nodded with a smile and suddenly changed the subject,

“Lord Leon, were you just on the bed with Miss Catherine?”
