Damn it. He thought. What kind of secret does the little one have?
Louella saw her parents’ death at the age of eight. And she doesn’t know when, but she saw her own death.
Why did she have to? Of course, thanks to the future that Louella saw, they were able to heal their father.
When their father was said to have contracted the illness, he thought about why Louella had had that medicine, just at that exact moment.
Then he remembered what Louella had said in the past.
‘What if I say that our father is going to die? Dad will disappear from the world, and from us.’
Alexid clenched his fist.
Strangely, Louella had more thoughts than people her age. Though still naughty, she often said mysterious things.
Looking back now, it would have been inevitable. It might be possible that she could look into the future!
Alexid sighed. But now Louella might get Nisephor. He did not know what the hell was going on.
Louella had never been in contact with monsters before. Would it not make sense if he got it instead?
“I’m going to go crazy.”
Why is it all up to Louella? I feel sorry for my sister. His little sister, whom he thought he would protect for the rest of his life, was actually ahead of him. Rather, Louella may have been protecting Alexid.
“Not this time.”
Alexid asked the question. He was going to thoroughly examine the death of the prospective Crown Princess. If that will be the answer to saving Louella, he would find it. For his younger sister.
Alexid rose to his feet with a cold face. Certainly, there were many dubious parts of Philia’s death. Sudden onset and rapid progression of Nisephor and then death.
Usually, when the prospective Crown Princess died of illness, everything was to be returned to the crown prince. It was to be erased from the Imperial City, as if that person who would become a crown princess did not exist.
However, with Philia, it was as if she had been a member of the Royal Family. Events and proper courtesy happened in the royal family.
In addition, Philia stayed at the Crown Prince’s Palace throughout her illness. There must be a reason why the Empress and the Emperor sat on the side?
At that time, people were talking about how the Crown Prince was sick, amid all kinds of speculation about why Philia had died.
In the meantime, Philia’s parents had accepted the royal decision silently.
Why was it that it seemed like they did not care about their daughter? Because it was the royal decision? That’s impossible.
He had a strong intuition that there must be something hidden.
He thought that he should be a proper brother this time.
And does Gerald know these things? Alexid scratched his head.
Should he tell him and ask him to help him?
Tch. Gerald is perfect for Louella. Alexid rolled his eyes. And Gerald is smart, so.
He realized that this might be the reason why Louella approached the Crown Prince.
How worried he must be. He’s jealous. He can tell a little bit, right?
Alexid got up, he was going to meet Gerald briefly before he had to get ready and go to work.
Ugh. He hoped that they both knew that this was all thanks to him. However, he did not know if coy Louella knew that.
* * *
Gerald smiled at Alexid.
“So, you’re saying that Louella seems to be meeting the Crown Prince?”
“That’s it, Gerald. Just in case you have a misunderstanding.” Alexid shrugged his shoulders.
Gerald fiddled with his fingers in his mouth. Gerald had a very strong helper, Alexid Leander.
Alexid was a transparent man and kept on informing Gerald about Louella’s recent status. He was really grateful. Because of this, he could sit still and hear all the news about Louella.
Will Louella know this? Gerald smiled. He felt more at ease when he found out that there was a reason for Louella to meet the Crown Prince.
All he had ever thought about was that Louella had really wanted to meet the Crown Prince because she wanted to date him.
But, Lulu, why are you trying to find out about Nisephor? Already, the Duke has managed to escape from Nisephor.
But why is Louella clinging to Nisephor? How has Louella been lately?
When things got better, he thought of Louella, who was drunk, watching Gerald.
That languid look in Gerald’s eyes, his little face full of redness. Louella was trying to say everything she wanted to say.
The next day, Arthur woke up and couldn’t talk properly. He had chosen not to be there. No, actually, he ran away from Louella.
He was afraid that Louella would push Gerald away with that memory. Gerald ran away because he was afraid that Louella would push him away, as he had revealed himself without realizing it.
“…What purpose is Louella trying to figure out?”
“Hey, Gerald. Our Lulu.” Alexid lowered his voice. Like he was gonna tell him a great secret. “Had a dream.”
“What dream?”
“A dream about the future. Louella actually knew that our father was gonna be sick”
That’s it, because Louella remembers her past life. It was a magical mistake, but she was left with her memories.
“But?”
“……I heard she saw herself get sick. In my dream.”
“What?” Gerald asked back slowly.
Louella saw herself getting sick? No. Does that mean she remembers? Gerald’s eyes shook. He slowly clenched his fist.
Louella certainly doesn’t remember anything in her first life. At that time, there was no magic error. He had definitely checked.
So she was really dreaming about the future? The future that Louella didn’t have.
[No way. You can only have that kind of ability if God allows you.] Uroboros gave an answer.
[She looked pretty smart. Have you ever shown any room for her to figure it out? Didn’t you give her any clues that led her to the point of noticing?]
Gerald clenched his teeth. His heart beat like crazy. He felt like his head was spinning. He felt nauseous.
Did he get caught?
[Third, the moment she talks about the secret, you’ll be killed by the magical reverberation.]
“You know something. Uroboros, you must know something from your nonchalance.” Gerald took a deep breath.
The laughter of Uroboros made Gerald shudder.
[Anyway. They’re quick to sense that we’re gods. Yes, you’re right. She noticed. She knows all your secrets. She was so smart that she understood my warning at once when I told her about the magical constraints of time.]
He felt like he was being hit on the head. Gerald closed his eyes.
Gerald knew that Louella was smart. Louella never forgets when she sees something once. It was the same with Alexid sitting in front.
Although there is a problem that both of them are able to use the ability only when I want it.
“Thank you, Alexid.”
“Did I help you?”
“You did.”
“All right, Gerald. Please do something about that idiot. And then to that strange moldy fellow.. No, the devil is the problem right now. The Crown Prince is really dangerous, Jeje.” Alexid sighed deeply.
“It’s for Louella that I’m acting like this.”
“I know, and thank you. For seeing me as a good person.”
“At least I don’t think you’re going to hurt Louella.”
Gerald laughed bitterly. The thing that hurt the most was that he had, and he was glad that Alexid didn’t know his past.
Alexid made some complaints and then left for work. He was a man who comes around, and goes around.
Gerald had remained alone for the rest of his life, spending his time researching about Nisephor.
The only sound left was of Gerald’s footsteps around the room. “Louella noticed everything.”
[You guys matched the truth as if they were matching a puzzle.]
Gerald laughed. Louella had matched the pieces she had collected so far.
“Did she seem to know about the baby?”
[To a certain extent, yes.]
Gerald clenched his fist. Nothing went the way he wanted it. He wanted to keep Louella healthy and happy, but nothing went Gerald’s way.
[Isn’t it too hard to carry it all alone? Actually, it might be her, not you, who is strong.]
Gerald did not answer.
[But isn’t it easier now, Gerald?] Uroboros comforted Gerald affectionately. [She’ll understand you now]
Okay. That was the most disillusioning part. Louella was actually delighted, saying she didn’t like it when she noticed everything.
Now she may not push me away. Hope came into him. Love was bubbling up while taking his breath away.
