Chapter 9: Chapter 9 – Hurry up!

I stayed in the bedroom and waited for Noelle to come in. I lay down again. I coughed on purpose to worry her as soon as she entered the room. It worked perfectly.

"Master, are you feeling sick?" She approached the bed and soon after placed her hand on my forehead. "You don't have a fever, but you are paler. What are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling a little weak. I expended too much mana yesterday during my training with Anne."

"I told you you had overdone it!"

"Don't worry; I'll be fine. But I can't stay here. I have to go to my training. I'm already dressed properly, so I'll go straight to the training camp."

"No! You can't! Don't worry. I'll let Mr. Sigurd know that you can't train today because you feel unwell. Lie down and continue resting for today. I'm sure you'll feel better tomorrow."

"But my father will be angry if I don't train."

"I'm sure the lord cares more about your health than your strength! I'm sure he won't mind. Get some rest, Master Noah." Noelle looked worried. Did she believe what she just said?

That my father cares more about my health.

'She should know that is not the case.' I smiled bitterly and soon after lay down again. "Okay, I'll go and rest. I'll leave the job of warning Sigurd to you. Also, prepare a nutritious lunch so I can recover as soon as possible."

"Right! I'll talk to the cooks to make a very nutritious lunch! I'm going now. Rest well." Noelle covered my body with my blanket and soon after left the room. And right after she did that, I got up.

'I need to make this quick.' I grabbed some blankets and clothes from my closet and then made a fake body under the blanket. I was cautious about the size so as not to look strange. The result was better than I expected.

It looks natural. I'm sure it will fool anyone entering the room.

"Now the problem is to get out of the mansion without being seen. There are usually many maids around the house, so it will be difficult not to be seen by anyone. Should I offer them money to keep quiet? I have a good savings account."

Worst case scenario, I can do that.

So I put on my hoodie. After leaving the room, I found no one in the hallway. That's good; there's no one around. I kept my head down and walked carefully while paying attention to my surroundings.

If I heard any footsteps, I would hide immediately.

And that is what happened after I was very close to reaching the front door. In the large living room with two sofas, I hid behind one of them when I noticed two maids coming down the stairs.

"Have you heard? It seems that Master Noah is not feeling well. Noelle was quite worried about him."

"Really? That's the first I've heard about it. I hope he'll be okay soon."

"Me too. He's such a good boy. Too bad the lord is so strict and mistreats him."

"Hey, don't say that kind of thing. What would you do if the lord or anyone close to him heard that?"

"I'll be careful."

The two maids passed through the room without noticing me and headed toward the mansion's kitchen. It was close. But it was good to hear the conversation between the two. It shows that the maids like me despite everything.

Well, I have never been someone who has maltreated the maids or anything like that. It makes sense that they don't have a grudge against me. But to think that woman would say that about the lord. My father is so strict that he would have that maid's head ripped off.

I hope he doesn't find out about it, because even I won't be able to do anything about it.

Leaving the mansion, I soon noticed a guard approaching. Usually, the guards act this way. They keep walking around the mansion patrolling, so it is difficult to leave without being noticed.

Because of his sudden approach, I removed my hood and let him see me. He probably doesn't know that I am sick and should be lying down. As soon as he saw me, the guard looked like he had just sucked a lemon.

His expression showed contempt for me.

'You shouldn't do that. You know I can cut your head off if you disrespect me, right?' Not that I was going to do that. I let the guard pass me by, and soon after he walked away, I walked quickly toward the forest.

On the way, I had to pretend I wasn't doing anything suspicious so the guards wouldn't question me. And after much effort, I finally reached the entrance to the forest. There were no fences or walls, so I entered the forest without trouble.

It's good that they don't have protection, and I can enter the forest without problems, but the downside is that monsters come out of the forest daily and approach the mansion.

"But that matters now. Where is that light?" Walking through the forest, careful not to trip over roots, I looked for the golden light. After searching for a few minutes, I finally found it.

"Hey, I thought you would stay at the entrance."

[ I preferred to stay among the trees. I feel better that way because of the wind and the sound of the birds. ]

"And you can feel the wind by any chance?"

[ Of course, I can. Now come on, we need to do this fast because I'm running out of strength. ]

"Running out of strength?"

[ Yes, my mana is running out. If it runs out, I'll disappear before I get you to your doom. So let's go fast, and watch your step. There are some flowers with poisonous thorns in this area. ]

"Yes, I already know about that. Don't worry. I've walked through this forest before."

[ Right. ]
