Chapter 33: 16.2

“How about Emily?”

“Emily is being educated by the chief handmaid.”

Now that she had been given permission, she had a lot to learn as a maid for the Grand Duchy. It was said that it was not difficult because servicing Anne was something that she had done before, but this place seemed to have its own rules as it was a Grand Duchy. There was everything from understanding the structure of the most basic Grand Duke’s castle to other details to remember.

Come to think of it, Anne remembered that even she had not yet fully grasped the inner structure of the labyrinth-like castle.

“Let’s go today.”

“Yes? Where to?”

Marie’s hand was startled as she drained Anne’s damp hair with a soft towel. She looked surprised again, wondering if Anne was saying she wanted to go outside.

“You said you would show me the castle.”

“Ah . . . yes.”

At that moment, Marie shook her head enough to shake her dark brown braid.

“Then I will prepare suitable clothes.”

She also needed to be properly equipped for a walk. Anne, who was not yet accustomed to the northern weather, thought that it was a bit excessive as she wrapped her body tightly with thick clothes as if to protect her.

In Libelois, when she was sick, she was often scolded for not taking good care of her body. It was because she had been taught to never show when she was sick or weak and remain calm even if it was uncomfortable.

But here, except for the Grand Duke, everyone took care of her, which gave her a strange feeling.

Anne slid fur gloves in her hands and meticulously put on a wide-brimmed hat before leaving her room. As she walked towards the back of the main building, she was bathed in warm sunlight. In a place filled with the earthly colors, small birdsong also mixed in.

Now she could hear a noise that was a bit like a human dwelling. No matter how good the silence was, it was like a torment for her to be locked up in a quiet place for a month. As if climbing a sparsely populated mountain, the Grand Duke’s castle was always surrounded by silence, and even the air was different. Perhaps it was because it was built on high ground.

Anne took a deep breath as she seemed to be relieved of the stuffiness. The wind was still cold, but she was fine.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew from behind. The wind swept away the hat Anne was wearing.

“Oh, the hat . . .”

“I’ll bring it back.”

Marie rushed out saying she would bring back the hat. The hat seemed to fly quite a distance as it flew high in the wind.

Holding her gloved hands and waiting for Marie, she heard the rustling of dark leaves from the tree beside her. The moment Anne lifted her head, the snow that had fallen on the branch fell down on her shoulder.

“Aahh . . .”

For a moment, she shivered as the cold snowflakes entered her eyes. While she closed her eyes for a moment in a cold sensation, she heard a small, dull sound as if something had fallen.

She struggled to open her eyes, and a man with a face she had never seen before was jumping from the tree. Falling from a tree taller than two stories high, the man landed lightly like a nimble cat.

“. . .”

The man who found Anne looked like a fresh spring blossom blooming alone next to a bare winter tree. He had a surprisingly innocent and bright smile. The silver hair fluttering in the wind reflected in the soft light, and the soft tips of his hair brushed his shoulders.

His smooth body with no flab was as thin and slim as a woman’s. His shoulders were wide, but his dense facial features gave off a mysterious atmosphere as if he was standing on the border between genders, as if he could not completely escape the boyish figure.

It went well with his pure white shirt and white trousers, and even the straight collarbone visible between the shirt looked pretty. She suddenly thought that it would be a very beautiful scene if he ever showed off his swordsmanship. If the Grand Duke went well with black, the man in front of her would look good with white.

When Anne looked at the man in front of her, the man with a neutral and pretty face clasped her palms together.

“We finally met, Anne.”

He spoke in a gentle voice with his head tilted. The man she saw for the first time with clear silver eyes was calling her name.

“. . . Do you know me?”

All of a sudden, someone called her by her nickname. Who was this? There was no man in Anne’s memory who had called her by her nickname. Even Salton, who had been engaged to her for a year or so, called her Lady in a formal tone, and her husband, the Grand Duke, had never properly called her by name. Even if she traced back her memory, the man in front of her was someone she did not know.

The man with eyes finely folded and red lips stretched.

“Anne! Looks delicious.”

Hearing ‘looks delicious’ all of a sudden, Anne looked at herself from head to toe. She didn’t have anything to eat. The man stepped closer.

“My name is Luciel. If I had known Anne would come so soon, I would have just waited quietly.”

“Who are you?”
