Now, the breakup that Blitzen announced to Ivonne sounded just like the words she had heard before the possession.
–”I’m sorry. I’m not excited about you anymore.”
–”It seems I’m not excited about you anymore.”
Her ex-boyfriend and Blitzen, their voices overlapping, left her feeling dizzy, and the emotions from that time rushed back like waves, making her eyes well up.
However, Ivonne didn’t cry. She hadn’t loved Blitzen, so it was only natural, but she also didn’t want to risk being killed like before if she cried.
Crying over a man and facing a dreadful and miserable fate because of it was an experience she’d rather not repeat. Furthermore, since he was the one who initiated the breakup this time, could there be a more certain separation than this?
That’s why Ivonne, after the possession, opened her mouth confidently and nonchalantly, as well as with a hint of joy.
“Well, that works out.”
—she said.

Back in her room, Ivonne clenched her fists. Her already pale fingers turned even whiter as she held them tightly. She appeared as though she was suppressing something.
Was it the sadness one feels when their lover cheats on them? Betrayal? Or perhaps tears?
None of those answers were correct.
“…Good.”
Ivonne was currently suppressing her urge to burst into jubilant laughter.
‘I can’t believe this opportunity has come…!’
Despite her efforts to contain it, Ivonne couldn’t suppress the bubbling joy that surged within her. Dreams do come true, and she finally felt like she was taking a step towards a peaceful life of singleness.
In reality, Blitzen was a count, while Ivonne was a commoner. Ten years ago, she had come to the ‘Ulfest County’ when she was just thirteen years old and had been living together since, but they hadn’t officially married, so there was no suitable status for her. This meant that, as a noble, Blitzen could potentially dispose of her, a commoner, without anyone noticing…
‘However, the fact that he summoned me to break up shows that he still cares about societal perceptions.’
There were parts that remained unchanged from the original work. One such aspect was Blitzen’s inexperience in magic, which made him extremely concerned about the rumors within the aristocratic society.
How polite he was when he informed Ivonne about their breakup today might become the talk of the nobles and the fashionable gossip of tomorrow.
‘Well, he can’t rely on my power anymore, so I don’t know what his future prospects will be… Ah, as for Celestia, she’s quite skilled in magic, so he might end up relying on that woman.’
Celestia Odelle Cyande.
She was the only daughter of the Marquisate Cyande, known for her considerable magical abilities. Setting aside her magical prowess, if Blitzen were to choose a spouse, he might find the Marquisate Cyande’s eldest daughter more welcoming than Ivonne, a commoner.
Of course, in the original work, Blitzen chose Ivonne over Celestia, which left Celestia as the villainess, but that’s how the story went.
‘Speaking of which, the original work really twisted things unbelievably. How could it… how could it turn out like this?’
While she was relieved to be able to break up peacefully and live on her own, she suddenly felt a profound sense of disillusionment towards the concept of ‘love.’
“Ha…”
Just a moment ago, Ivonne, who had been excited, let out a sigh, and the fox, which had been curling up on the cushion and twitching its ear, suddenly opened its eyes. Ivonne’s face showed a hint of regret as she saw this.
‘Come to think of it, I promised to release the fox into the nearby forest….’
She realized that she had broken up much earlier than expected. By the time the fox’s wounds would have fully healed, she had already broken up with Blitzen and left County Ulfest.
After pondering for a moment, Ivonne approached the fox and crouched down in front of it.
“Kng…?”
As Ivonne approached with a serious expression, the fox seemed to sense something peculiar and raised its head. Then, for some reason, as if asking Ivonne to tell it what had happened, it gently nudged her hand with its moist nose. Thanks to that, Ivonne could relax a little. While gently stroking the fox’s head, Ivonne began to speak.
“You know, I’ve been through a breakup. Blitzen said he’s in love with someone else now.”
Did the fox understand Ivonne’s words? Its violet eyes widened slightly, but that too was short-lived. The fox clumsily nudged Ivonne’s hand with its front paw, as if comforting her. Seeing this, a faint smile crossed Ivonne’s lips.
“Are you worried about me? You don’t have to be.”
The fox tilted its head slightly. It seemed more like an attempt to hear better rather than expressing confusion. So, Ivonne stretched her legs and sat down, placing the fox on her lap before continuing.
“In fact, I… I was expecting something like this to happen.”
Yes, Ivonne had a vague sense that a day like this would come.
And that day was about a month ago from now.
