Night fell.
Exquisite magic lamps lit up the back garden.
Amidst a sea of flowers, a romantic dining table is set up.
A handsome man and a beautiful woman sat at opposite ends of a long table.
The magic lamp shone on Marquis Marina's face, making her skin appear as smooth and flawless as a peeled egg, with not a single pore visible.
Marquis Marina, after taking two bottles of "beauty potion," was indeed radiant and beautiful.
Moreover, she did not feel any discomfort after taking the medicine.
She could reasonably suspect that this was the minotaur from the alchemy shop trying to avoid selling "beauty potions" to her, an outsider.
Under the moonlight, amidst a sea of flowers.
The magic lamp slowly changed colors, and everything was so romantic and beautiful.
Marquise Marina looked at the man sitting opposite her, Arthur Cold Jade, with flirtatious eyes.
The man possessed an invincible and powerful army, a vast fiefdom occupying one-third of the kingdom's area, immense wealth that rivaled that of a nation, and a handsome appearance that captivated countless young women.
How could God bestow such great favors upon a man?
Marquis Marina cleared her throat lightly, then cleared her throat and spoke in a sweet and melodious voice like a lark: "Brother Arthur~ Will Madam mind if you dine with me alone?"
The Duke lowered his icy blue eyes, staring at the bright red wine in the goblet in front of him.
The magic lamp behind him was quite bright, making his expression somewhat ambiguous.
The Marquis continued in her cloyingly sweet voice, "I'm genuinely worried that Madam might misunderstand. Do you think my sister will misunderstand?"
"'Misunderstanding'?" The Duke savored the word, his smile turning chillingly cold in an instant.
The Marquis was startled by that smile and instinctively shuddered.
"I know, sister. You just tend to be a little unreasonable." Marina shyly smoothed her hair. "Unlike me, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't be so unreasonable."
After listening, Arthur Cold Jade leaned back in his chair and pinched the bridge of his nose.
"I must have been so angry that I wasted my time here..." he muttered.
Having said that, the Duke stood up, ready to end the farce ahead of schedule.
However, at that moment, Marina suddenly felt gas rising in her lower abdomen.
The air was so strong that it almost burst her corset.
Because of the corset, the air was forced to rush downwards without hesitation, and the unprepared Marquis Marina let out a huge, loud fart in front of the most aloof male god in the entire empire.
"Pfft—"
There was a deathly silence all around.
The duke, who was about to take his leave, was stunned.
Marina felt her mind go completely blank.
But the two bottles of beauty potion she drank didn't allow her to be 'blank'.
All that could be heard was a "plop," a "splat," and a "splat pplat"...
The two potions combined were simply devilish; the sounds they made were like a percussion symphony that just wouldn't stop.
Arthur Cold Jade: "………………"
The Duke, who could crawl out of a pile of corpses without batting an eye, now looked at the blank-faced Marquis Marina with a complicated expression.
Neither the 'smell' at the moment nor a man's gentlemanly conduct would allow him to stay here any longer and watch a young girl embarrass herself.
As the handsome man turned and left with a subtle expression, Marina felt her beautiful dream shattered.
She panicked; she completely lost her composure.
A flash of inspiration struck my blank mind.
[Charm Potion]!
Yes! With a charm potion, I can make the Duke change his mind!
Even if they've seen me fart, they'll still love me wholeheartedly!
In her panic, she forgot who should drink the 'charm potion'.
So her personal maid watched as the potion meant for the Duke was taken out by her mistress, and in a panic, she tilted her head back and gulped it down.
maid:"……"
The first thing the Marquis saw after taking the medicine was the back of the Duke of Cold Emerald.
At that moment, she fell completely in love.
She only had eyes for this man; nothing else mattered.
Then……
Then, another effect of the alchemical potion began to take effect.
The princess's feet began to slowly lift off the ground.
With a loud "pop," she shot into the air like a rocket accelerating upwards.
The servants in Constantinople: "..." (?`?Д?′)!!
The servants' panicked cries made the Duke turn around.
The Marquis, with tears streaming down her face and her flight path altered by the fart, was like a punctured, leaky balloon... darting wildly through the sky.
Arthur Cold Jade: "..."
This can hardly be considered a dark chapter in one's life.
This is simply a mudslide in my life.
Arthur pinched the bridge of his nose, a gesture he seemed to make frequently ever since he brought his duchess back.
However, as the man turned to leave, a slight smile crept onto his lips.
...
Inside the castle, Li Aili was deep in thought, staring at a table full of "delicacies".
In front of her was a bowl of blue-purple "unknown solid-liquid mixture".
"What did you just say this dish was called?" Li Aili asked the male servant who was serving the food.
The servant said respectfully, "This dish is a traditional delicacy of the Moko Lizardmen, Moko Lizard Stew."
Li Aili silently pushed the bowl away a little.
She didn't want to see a whole Moko lizard floating in the soup any minute.
Then she looked at the second dish in front of her.
On an expensive porcelain plate were several thinly sliced pieces of raw meat.
