6 He is Handsome!

Erella groaned in her sleep. She was having a nightmare. In her dream, she was chased by an old pervert. She was about to be caught then suddenly she woke up from her sleep. She gasped. Sweat on her forehead was dripping down her face. She was still catching her breath when she felt her body was aching. Her eyes went wide and she felt nervous. She looked around. She was all alone in the closed room.

'Don't tell me, someone sold me to an old pervert?' She murmured. Then an unthinkable scene came to her mind. She felt horrified and disgusted.

"NO! NO! NO! It can't be!" She exclaimed. The whole manor suddenly trembled. The air was gushing out from her and her magical powers went out of control.

KABOOOOOOOM! An explosion happened because of Erella's magical power that went out of control. Half of the manor was destroyed. She slumped against the floor still feeling humiliated. Then a young man with an intimidating aura came rushing towards Erella.

"What happened? Are you hurt?" The young man asked her worriedly while kneeling and checked her if she was fine. When he saw nothing was wrong with Erella, the young man sighed a relief. Then alertly looked for the person who was responsible for the destruction of his manor. On the other hand, Erella was speechless. The morning sun that shone on the young man's face made her mouth slightly open and forgot the scene she imagined earlier. The young man's short military hair danced as sweetly as a poet's ink and quill. His red sharp gaze, like he's ready to cut down anything or anyone that gets in his path. Also, his celestial nose was as pointy as the tip of a knife was in congregation with his sensual lips that looked like it was inviting her to taste it. She suddenly swallowed an imaginary lump. The young man was incredibly handsome!

"He is handsome!"She murmured. Maxwell who was leaning near her overheard her. The intimidating aura that he was exuded turned to soft pink. His face slowly became bright red. He quickly turned away his face.

'KYAAAAAA! He is sooo cute! I want him!' Her inner voice screamed.

'Oh my gosh! Is this the thing my friends told me before? It's ok to be laid on if the perpetrator is this extremely handsome?' She grinned while thinking of her friends back on Earth. Then all of a sudden she slapped her forehead.

'Jeez! Get a grip SANDY! You are not young anymore. Your body is sixteen years old but your soul is already twenty-six years old! You need to think straight! Skin him alive because he humiliated you!' Erella scolded herself.

"Ahem" Maxwell coughed to get her attention. She looked at him intently then took a deep breath. She grabbed his hand and swiftly stood up.

"You need to take responsibility!" She proclaimed.

Duh?! Why should I skin him alive? It is such a waste to skin him alive.'She grinned secretly at her thought.

"Wh---what?"Maxwell stuttered for the first time in his life.

'Responsibility? What is she talking about? Is she asking me for some compensation because of her minor injuries? Did she think that I was the one who did that to her so she's asking for responsibility?' Maxwell thought.

Maxwell wanted to correct her but he didn't have the time because the girl talked again.

"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! I made a mistake. Sorry -------------- Erella apologized. Maxwell nodded his head to accept her apology. He thought Erella already understood the situation. But his shoulder went down when he heard the girl's statement again.

"I should be the one to take the responsibility!" She exclaimed. Maxwell was stunned! His brain turned into knots. He couldn't think what responsibility the little girl was talking about. A burst of laughter brought Maxwell back to the present. His Aunt the Marchioness kept on laughing while the servant looked at Erella threateningly. They didn't notice that his Aunt, who took care of him when his parents died came in together with some of the servants.

"Aunt Camille!"Maxwell called his Aunt.

"Oh my! Oh my! My belly hurts looking and listening to you both." Marchioness Camille said still laughing. Then she went to Erella. She pinched her skinny cheeks and said.

"Little kid, don't poison the mind of my nephew." She said.

"But my body felt sore--------------Marchioness Camille cut her off and said.

"He's too pure and innocent to think about that. He didn't even have his first kiss yet." She grinned. It was so fun for the Marchioness to see the two adorable children misunderstand each other. Maxwell who heard the conversation of her Aunt and the girl realized what they meant. His face turned red beet.

"Miss you thought wrong! Nothing happened between us. I found you unconscious in the forest so I brought you here in my manor." Maxwell frantically explained while his face was bright red. Erella who heard his explanation felt ashamed. She wanted to hide in a hole. Now, she has two things to say sorry about. First for misunderstanding him and second is for destroying his manor. Erella bit her lip. She didn't want to tell them that she destroyed his manor. She didn't have money to pay for the damages she had done. She thought of escaping after thanking them but her thought was in vain.

"Milord, who destroyed the manor?" A servant asked Maxwell. Erella turned pale and sweats started to form on her forehead. Maxwell, who remembered the situation again immediately called his knight to command an order to find the culprit. But the Marchioness stopped them.

"Dear, you don't need to look for the person who was responsible for destroying your manor. The person is just with us."She said smiling then turn her gaze towards Erella.

"What do you mean Aunt Camille?" Maxwell asked with his brows knitted together. The servants who were with them looked at each other.

"Milady, it would be impossible the duke's manor has a traitor."The old butler butt in with confidence. He knew that all the people in von Heinlein duchy are all loyal. Because if there's one who isn't loyal, that person will meet his creator right away. They loved the young duke so much that they will kill or torture the one who dares to hurt him. But Maxwell had no idea what his servants were doing when he was not looking.

"Little girl, why not tell them about how you destroy half of his manor." Marchioness Camille said. Everyone turned their shocked gazes towards Erella.

"WHAT?!!!!"They exclaimed in surprised.
