‘So, just like this, let’s become independent when I reach the age of adulthood, no, when I about to reach fifteen.’
I just had to hold on until then.
I rummaged through the picture book.
Devoir, wielding a toy sword from afar, came up to me and hugged me tightly.[clingy ml]
The smell of grass came from his body as if he had been playing on the lawn.
“Lily!”
Devoir looked at me and smiled broadly.
I also laughed along with Ar’s reaction.
Yes, it’s really annoying, but.
‘But won’t this be enough to raise me up in the house?’ [Lily is enduring because she somehow wants to pay back the lord who accepted her and the maids who were raising her.]
Thinking about it that way, I felt like I was worthy of being a hard-working nanny.
“Lily!”
Then the name of the attachment doll is Lily.
I shrugged my shoulders, wiping the saliva from his cheeks.
Well, it didn’t matter anyway.
*****
The Ardelos family had a cooperative relationship with the Lerotia family.
The two families frequently met to strategize and discuss plans.
The battle with the beasts and the resurrection of the demon king had to be taken into consideration.
The two families gathered together effortlessly to repeat training and actual battles.
The same was true of Agnos, the head of Ardellos.
He took part in all the plans.
As a result, Agnos often left his family.
Taking care of the family was entrusted to several butlers in charge of administration, and he was sent to the battlefield for the sake of survival for the family.
When he was away, months and years passed.
This time the period was even longer.
It meant that the power of the Deldeaar family had grown stronger.
Because of that, Agnos set foot in the mansion after a very long time.
It’s been a very long time, and five years have passed.
After an arduous journey, his fatigue had reached its limit.
His eyes were bloodshot with fatigue.
Even though he was called a superhuman, anyone could guess how hard it must have been for others if he was exhausted like that.
Indeed, he has wrapped up a life-and-death punitive campaign.
However, the return does not imply that everything is alright.
Agnos couldn’t sleep well even in the mansion.
He had to close his eyes for a brief moment and then start the meeting again.
It was because of the discovery of a greater danger than the beast.
Agnos’s forehead was distorted, reminiscent of the traces of the advanced beasts he encountered during subjugation.
The steps that were full and heavy became even slower.
