Chapter 370: 370

Chapter 370

The reception room was filled with silence.

If the lights had been just a tad dimmer, the thick silence would have felt like a scene from a movie interrogation.

As the quiet stretched on, the stares towards the two Erul tribe members intensified.

Our eyes weren't as harsh as Kaneff's, but they did grow more and more suspicious.

Anis, with a tense look, tried to speak up.

"If Speranza becomes the priestess, it's not entirely incorrect to say that the situation would become challenging."

"Ugh"

I couldn't help but sigh and groan.

"Some folks in the village don't like Speranza. She's the daughter of a runaway priestess successor and has the blood of the Red Erul tribe."

"So, Speranza isn't really accepted by the Erul tribe, huh?"

Anis didn't have an answer to my slightly annoyed question.

Kaneff's guess seemed to be on point.

Thinking that poor Speranza wasn't welcomed for such a dumb reason got me pretty ticked off.

I couldn't help but feel resentment towards Anis and Daur.

Anis, sensing my mood, quickly tried to defend herself.

"Not everyone thinks of Speranza in a bad way. My uncle and I, and lots of other people, care about her and want to see her."

"Anis is right. Only some of the Erul tribe are like that, mostly for political reasons."

Daur chimed in, attempting to convince me.

"My mom's wish to see Speranza has nothing to do with those messy issues. She didn't even want to bring Speranza back because of all the attention. She's happy as long as Speranza's safe and living a good life somewhere"

Anis said, her voice shaking a bit.

The whole situation weighed on my heart.

Kaneff's cold expression softened a bit, but his words were still sharp.

"I get that you didn't mean any harm. But no matter how much I try to look on the bright side, taking Speranza to the Erul tribe's village feels too risky. Who knows what the villagers might do to her?"

"Um"

"You said you didn't even know the Red Erul tribe was tailing you, right? If something happens to Speranza after she goes to the village, are you just gonna say you didn't know then, too?"

Anis had no comeback for Kaneff's biting tone and just looked frustrated. Kaneff snorted, watching her struggle to find a response.

So, Kaneff plopped down in the comfy chair, chillin' with his arms crossed. It looked like he didn't need any more talking.

Anis looked back at me, her face very desperate as she begged me.

"Sihyeon, my mom's really sick. This might be Speranza's last chance to meet her grandmother."

"We'll keep Speranza safe, so don't worry about what you're thinking. Don't be mad about us asking, okay?"

I gave a heavy nod and answered.

"I hear you both. About your request I can't decide right now. I'll show you the guest room for now. You must be tired from traveling so far, so just relax."

I wrapped up the conversation and offered to show them where they could relax. They tried to hide their letdown and thanked me for being cool about it.

"Hey, little lady, this way, this way!"

"Kyahahaha!"Finnd new chapters at novel35.com

Speranza and Namira's laughter came from outside the window.

I didn't know when they got so close, but Namira was playing with Speranza like it was nothing.

The laughter coming from outside the window gradually faded. In the end, I couldn't make a decision until the game of tag was over and the surroundings darkened.

Initially, we planned to spend the night at the new mansion, but I took Speranza and returned to the farm building as if escaping.

Seeing the two Erul members staying at the mansion would only add to my distress.

After finishing dinner in a casual manner, I got Speranza ready for bed a little early.

While I played with the baby griffins and the divine beast Shushu, who were bored because I had been at the lord's mansion all day, Speranza adorably brushed her teeth, washed her face, and changed into cute pajamas.

Swoosh.

The adorable fox girl in pajamas nestled into my arms.

"Hehe, Papa."

"Did you wash up? Did you brush your teeth thoroughly?"

"Un. I did it."

"You're amazing, my sweetheart. Shall we go to bed with Papa?"

"Un!"

I lifted Speranza up and headed toward the bed. I laid her down first, ensuring she was warm with pillows and blankets, and then I lay down beside her.

Speranza chatted nonstop about her visit to the lord's mansion and the Erul people she met.

Her face was radiant with joy as she spoke.

I was concerned that she might be scared by the Red Erul people, but it seemed she got along well thanks to Lia and Namira.

"So I played tag with Aunt Namira and later had some yummy snacks ugh later on."

Her story became more and more disjointed, and eventually, Speranza fell asleep.

Watching her angelic sleeping face, I smiled tenderly.

Every time I saw her, she looked lovely, and my heart swelled with pride.

That time when I was quietly watching over Speranza.

Suddenly, the smartphone in my pocket rang. I quickly pulled out the phone and touched the screen. Fortunately, it seemed Speranza didn't wake up from her sleep.

Sihy, were you asleep by any chance?

My mother's voice came through the smartphone. I responded in a whisper.

"I haven't slept yet. I just put Speranza to bed."

Oh! Did Speranza wake up because of me?

"It's okay, it's okay."

I switched to a video call and showed my sleeping Speranza on the camera. My mother's muffled exclamations came through the phone one after another.

Oh my, oh my. How can she be so pretty even when she's sleeping? My granddaughter is getting prettier by the day.

"Hehe, right?"

For a while, my mother and I watched Speranza sleep, and then I quietly left the room.

"Mom, what's going on at this hour?"

Uh-huh. I called to see if you and Speranza were doing well. Is everything alright?

Usually, I would have brushed off her concern, saying that everything was fine. But today, I couldn't respond as if my throat was blocked.
