I Became the Fiancé of a Crazy Heroine

Chapter 8-1

In original, there were no descriptions of the interactions between Sion Laird and Hanette Adelaira, nor of their respective feelings.

Sion Laird existed only as the fianc of Hanet Adelaira, the Extra.

No. There cant be any variables now.

For an unforeseen change to occur, one would have to actively intervene in the narrative flow, or take some sort of action.

But so far, Sion hasnt taken any action.

He has merely been preparing to wield his Demon Sword and carrying on a normal conversation with Hanette.

She must be scared because shes about to marry a complete stranger.

He knew he wouldnt be marrying her, so he was able to act nonchalant.

But Hanette was still thinking about it and planning her escape.

Given their different circumstances, their positions were bound to differ.

I want to be nice, but but I dont want to seem shallow.

If Hanette was going to be a spoilt brat, I had to pretend to be a little rude.

Of course, I had to moderate the level of rudeness depending on the place and time, and I only did it when her parents were around.

If he gave in to Hanettes every whim, there was a good chance shed use it against him.

Is it just a matter of keeping what needs to be kept?

Simply put, I guess thats right.

Are you going to change your words after getting married?

Do I have to write up a contract to satisfy you?

When did I say I was going to write a contract? Its just that I dont know what will happen in the future

Hanette trails off as she speaks.

She wasnt solely focused on the idea of running away.

If she could find a suitable compromise with Sion Laird, accepting the marriage wouldnt be too bad.

Are you worrying too much? You could break up before getting married.

Thats not going to happen.

Well, I guess thats true. It wont be easy. But theres always a chance of what if, right?

Wheres the what if? For a break-up, one of us has to make a move.

It was rare to see two families calling for a break-up at the same time.

Either one would do something wrong first, or one would push for it for some reason.

Both were common, but more often than not, they just let it go for each others sake.

Even if we get married as long as we dont fight.

How can you be sure we wont fight?

Uh Maybe? Im kind of nice.

Sion pretended to think about it, then blurted it out.

It was a marriage he wasnt going to sign anyway.

There was no point in talking about what would happen.

What makes you nice?

Better than an idiot.

Drinking and gambling arent necessarily bad things, are they?

Wouldnt it be better if you didnt?

Are you already interfering in my life?

What if I cant even say these things?

Why dont you use your brain? Think before you speak.

I cant help but laugh when I hear you say that. Ha, ha!

Where did the nice person go? I cant argue with you anymore.

My sister is making me look like a bad person.

Why are you blaming me for your faults?

Why is this my fault?

If you say youre a nice person, shouldnt you at least acknowledge that?

Hanette glared at Sion and pressed him relentlessly.

Sion is aware of the level of dialog, but he cant help himself.

You said Im not a good person, isnt that settled?

Ha! You admit that now? I can see how well youll fight once were married!

From your perspective, yes, but from mine, its being nice.

Just because you say it doesnt make it true. If you have a conscience, you should at least be quiet!

You have a conscience and still act like this?

What can I do when you behave like this, I just followed your example once, what else could I do?

Youre trying to lower my level to match yours? You have good skills.

Do you think your level is higher? I just told the truth.

Youre lying whenever you open your mouth.

Youre saying that even after seeing your own appearance?

Whats wrong with my appearance? Am I not very handsome and polite?

Huh! Are you kidding me right now? You think youre handsome? Polite? Are you out of your mind? How did I end up engaged to someone like you?

Hanette bursts into laughter and shoots a cold gaze.

While Sion was somewhat good-looking, he lacked manners.

Of course, Hanette was a bit picky, but Sion was mocking her more than necessary.

If she married someone like him, wouldnt she be tormented for the rest of her life?

Didnt I tell you then? Im too good for you.

Whats so great about you when you dont even know how to do anything?

Relative to you?

Isnt it weird to call someone a Crazy just because they drink and gamble? Youre no different from them.

Oh are you denying reality now? Are you going to deny reality even after we get married?

Do as you please. Im going to live like this and die.

People who drink well dont usually live long

Yeah, you live longer than me. Whats so great about living long?

Hanette turns her head, abruptly, unable to say what she really wanted to say.

She wanted to ask about having children after marriage, but the conversation got tangled up and she gave up.

Even if she asked, she would only get a formal answer or a lie that would reveal nothing.

But it feels good to deceive myself.

Hanette felt a vague sense of satisfaction and cautiously smirked.

Sion was looking around the garden without changing his expression.

She had never had such an easy conversation with anyone in her life.

As with the engagement ceremony, she quite liked his personality and way of speaking.

Have I been lonely all this time?

Hanette occasionally felt lonely but tried to ignore it.

No one would understand her feelings, and she would continue to live alone in the future.

However, encountering someone who provokes her for the first time made that loneliness even more vivid.

Until I run away, I guess I wont be bored.

Hanette shows a lonely gaze before slowly coming to a stop.

Now that she thinks about running away, she feels a little regret.

Why does she feel this emotion?

Am I feeling reluctant because of one person? Thats not possible

What are you doing? You should guide me properly.

Hey! Am I the one whos supposed to guide you?

You introduced yourself as a guide, so you should take responsibility.

When did I say that?

You asked for some Time, right? You give and you take.

Hah! Youre really funny.

You think its funny? Im dead serious. Did you forget that you promised to help me?

Oh, come on

Hanette lets out a hollow laugh and reluctantly follows Sion.

He was overly nonchalant and had a relaxed demeanor.

How did he live his life to become so shameless?

Hes all talk. Hes also young
