Chapter 11: 11

Chapter 11.

 

The marquise's wife, Laceyna, was reading a book while leaving her nails done by the maid.

Knock, I heard someone knocking. Lacey I said without taking her eyes off her book.

“Come in, Betty.”

The knock on the door was none other than Betty, whom Laceyna had called.

Betty entered cautiously with a face of joy and anxiety coexisting at the fact that Laceyna had called her.

"You called me, ma'am."

"okay. Come here.”

Laceyna called Betty in a gentle voice and kindly gave her seat. Laceyna turned over her bookshelf as Betty pressed her butt, she said.

“Ten days ago.”

“Yes, madam.”

“I heard that Latia met Gruan San Sangju.”

At Laceyna's words, Betty opened her mouth slightly, then closed it.

"yes that's right. In front of the central door, Lady Latia took the Celltron top bar, which was being treated badly by the knights, to the room.”

“Yeah, you knew. By the way."

While reading a book, Laceyna's eyes turned to the frozen Betty. Gee, taking his breath, Betty stiffened his shoulders.

“Why didn't you report to me?”

“… … yes?"

“I’m sure.”

Laceyna said, blowing on the nails that the other maid had done.

“I think I told you to report Latia's every move. Am I wrong?”

“Oh, no, no.”

"then?"

“Betty just… … ”

Betty, her face white, stammered.

“Because it's too private, it's something the madam doesn't need to know about, so... … . Since Lady Ratia has no power, and the Gruan top is all doomed, he thought there was nothing special about it.”

"You don't need to know... … .”

“… … .”

"who."

“… … yes?"

“Who would have thought that?”

Laceyna asked as she handed over to the maid who had returned to the other side. Laceyna said as Betty licked her lips.

“Betty. That's your opinion, isn't it your judgment?"

"yes… … . Right."

“That is so strange. Betty, I never asked you to share your thoughts and judgments.”

Betty's head dropped heavily when she rebuked her for daring to act on her own.

“Does it make sense that I, the second owner of this marquise’s residence, have not known the inner workings for ten days?”

"no… … . sorry… … .”

Apologizing, Betty bit her molars. For a moment, Ryshina's pupils coolly sank, and then she regained her womanliness.

“Yeah, I wish I knew. stop going out I'll take care of today's affairs, so I hope there won't be mistakes like this in the future.”

She said that today would be the last day of her mercy, added Laceyna. Betty got up, nodded to Laceyna, and ran out of her room as if running away.

I slowly gained strength as I trudged along. The expression on Betty's face as she clenched her fists was nothing like reflection.

“Ha, funny, really.”

Betty burst out laughing.

'What? second owner? Latia, I didn't know for ten days that the girl and Gurouan Sangsanju were meeting! You say something funny about a subject with less information than me!'

Betty cursed at Laceyna inwardly and moved on.

'Let's see how long I can be the second owner.'

The place where her strenuous steps stopped was none other than the study of the Marquis, Albus.

Meanwhile, the maid who was trimming Laceyna's nails said.

“Will you leave it as it is, madam?”

“What do you mean?”

When Laceyna let go of her pretense, the maid looked at her for a moment before opening her mouth.

“I mean Betty.”

“What can I do?”

"However… … .”

"stop."

The maid shut her mouth at Laceyna's remark. Watching her maid's silence, I immediately spoke to her in a soft voice.

“After all, Betty is just a maid. Rumors of an affair with the Marquis are just scandals. But even if it's true, I don't care. Because Betty is from a lowly background.”

“… … .”

“You can’t be my opponent. Why would the Marquis not embrace Betty when I am there?”

At Laceyna's words, the maid quietly bowed her head. Her maid finished her nails, and Lacey turned her attention back to her book. She seemed confident, but her maid thought differently.

'As soon as the scandal with the Marquis began to circulate, he demoted Betty to Lady Ratia's maid.'

However, the maid knew that her life was precious, so she did not tell Lacey the truth.

The next day, I checked the letter that Carcian had entrusted to me. Fortunately, it didn't wrinkle and dried well. As if the magic had been applied properly, it shimmered like sand mixed with gold when exposed to the sunlight. But one problem remains.

"How do I infiltrate so that I won't be found out that I entered my father's study?"

The magic potion that allows you to deliver a letter to the siren is in your father's library. Susan hugged the blanket tightly and put on a serious expression.

“No matter how you sneak, you will definitely get caught. I heard that there is a magic to follow the footsteps of those who hide.”

"right."

That's what I'm worried about. My father collected other people's weaknesses and put them all in his study. That's how strong the guard is.

"I don't think it's a very good idea to hide in the Marquis' study, young lady."

“Is that right?”

I answered sullenly and sat down on the sofa, hugging my crouched legs. I rested my chin on my lap and stared into the air. It's as if some kind of trick comes to mind. But only my eyes hurt.

It was when I let out a low sigh as I closed my stiff eyes.

“My lady, a guest has arrived.”

Susan, who had brought new bedding before she knew it, said in a bright voice. I looked at the door where Susan was standing, with a question mark floating above her head. Behind her, Celltron's bright face was visible.

“The Supreme Lord?”

What will happen in one day?

When I got up and greeted him, Celltron came running.

"miss!"

Then he got down on one knee in front of me and looked at me.

“Oh, my.”

I covered my mouth in surprise and widened my eyes. The impression of Celltron changed drastically in just one day. Where did her gloomy and lethargic face go, and now it was very brisk and lively.

He said.

“Your prediction was correct!”

"yes? … … no way."

I spoke ahead of Celltron before he could answer.

“You brought the soft grass back to life!”

"yes! And that in just one day!”

"Wow! really?"

"yes! all, all! It's thanks to the lady. Thanks for letting me know I have druid abilities, I, I... … !”

Seeing that a withered herb came back to life within a day, Celltron must have realized it too. That with the druid ability he had, he could raise the Gruan Merchant again.

With a harmless smile on my face, I guided him to the seat across from him.

“Susan, serve the tea.”

“Yes, lady.”

Susan also brewed tea with a friendly face, as if responding to Celltron's bright expression.

Celltron spoke belatedly with an embarrassed expression.

“The reason I came here today is not just to report this. I want to formally thank you, lady.”

“A word of thanks. It was done with the power of the upper lord. Thank you for giving me a job at the upper ranks.”

“But you didn’t wake me up yesterday, did you? i really... … It was an unexpected possibility. I had no intention of checking.”

Celltron bowed his head again, saying thank you very much.

Well, it's not something that deserves such a big compliment... … .

Let's just laugh awkwardly, Celltron said.

“Actually, I didn’t want to come empty-handed, but I still don’t know what you need, my lady.”

'The young lady knows what I need, but I'm ashamed of myself because I don't.' Celtron lowered his eyes for a moment with that expression on his face. But that was only for a moment, he said to me with his twinkling eyes.

“So if you need anything, feel free to tell me!”

“Anything?”

"yes! haha, that's... … .”

Celtron shrugged his shoulders and scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed.

“I officially signed a contract with the Yeriel All Merchant this morning!”

“With Yeriel at the top of all things?!”

My eyes widened at the familiar name.

The Yeriel Merchant Merchant is the largest merchant guild in the empire. From legal items to illegal items, it was also a dubious guild that couldn't get anything if you asked for it.

According to the original work, the top lord of the top of all things, Yeriel, is a so-called 'snake' and smells like money.

To think that the Yeriel team was collaborating with the Gruan team!

“No, how is it? The Gruan Merchants are just starting to rise again!”

I was so puzzled that I asked honestly. In response, Celltron scratched the back of her head and spoke shyly.

“Well, actually… … .”

It is said that he screamed because he was so happy that the soft weed that withered at dawn was revived. And just in time, a person from the top of all things, Yeriel, was passing by outside, and he became interested and asked what was going on.

Celtron happily explained, but it turned out that he was the lord of all things in Yeriel. He immediately revealed that he was a top lord and at the same time said he was sure that Celtron was a descendant of the Druids.

“The deal with the top of all things Yeriel is also thanks to the young lady.”

Celltron looked at me with eyes filled with infinite trust.

“The owner of the Yeriel All Things Merchant said that if you sign an alliance agreement, you will be given a chance to use the guild for free to ensure mutual trust.”

The Merchant of All Things, Yeriel, has a somewhat puzzling corner, so you should establish trust in the beginning.

Celltron said, 'It's not a gift from me, but... … .' said with a look.

“I want to give you a chance to use the top of all things, Yeriel.”

“… … Yeah? to me?”

"yes. It's all thanks to the young lady that I signed a contract with the Yeriel All Merchant."

Celltron looked at me and said. I blinked my eyes at him, then grinned.

"like!"

I readily accepted Celltron's favor.

There is a saying that humility is a virtue, but now I had to hold on to all the things that came rolling into me. This is not the time to be snobbish.

At my words, Celltron let out a sigh of relief with an expression that seemed to have relieved him.

“Then, if you need anything, feel free to write me.”

Celtron said that if I said anything, I would immediately turn to the top of all things in Yeriel.

But, what. Do I even need to send a letter? My answer is fixed.

Suddenly, Susan's eyes met. She smiled, and I smiled at her.

I said.

 

“Sir, it’s okay even if you don’t. I just needed something.”
