Chapter 8: 8

[There’s a lot of eyes that can see around. Didn’t you want to make the fire in the mansion by accident?] 

[Yes, but. ……] 

I looked around at the children who were slowly crying. 

The children were dressed in shabby clothes made of thin cloth. 

Emma’s determination came in to my mind. Without warm fire, the children would not be able to stand the cold weather of the night. 

[If I haven’t seen it like this but since I’ve seen it, I can’t help it. I’m a human being too.] 

To be honest with you, I wasn’t a person who deliberately stepped up to do good deeds. 

‘Service activities or donations? Why would i do that? I’ve been eating and living by my own self.’ 

But when a person is in such a difficult situation appeared before my eyes, I can not even turn a blind eye from it. 

‘Maybe many people was.’ 

I was one of those ordinary people. 

[So Harry, I need a fire.] 

[Well, This is what my contractor wants.] 

Harry answered in a humorous voice and at the same time, the fire flared up in the fireplace. 

“Wow!” 

The soaring flames made Lionel, fell with a scream, and Emma, who was crying, was startled and began to hiccup. 

Before I knew it, the cries of the children died down. 

The burning blackwood began to warm up the air inside. 

“…sister, are you a wizard?” 

The boy, who was staring blankly at the burning fireplace, asked carefully. 

I smiled instead of answering and looked at Emma. 

“Emma, remember? The promise you made at the mansion.” 

Emma nodded her head in hiccups. I asked her to check. 

“What have you seen and heard today?” 

“I have to forget everything. “ 

That was the right answer. 

I got up with a contented smile. 

“I think I’ll go back to the mansion now. When Emma calms the children down a bit you can come back. “ 

Emma stood up from her seat in amazement at what I said. 

“No, I’ll go back with you.” 

“Emma, the mouths of the kids, not you. “ 

I meant that the children should be kept track. Fortunately Emma noticed my intentions quickly. 

“I didn’t think much. I’m going to make sure it will be controlled.” 

I nodded to Emma and then gestured to Lionel, who was still surprised. 

“You go back with me.” 

“Yes, miss!” 

Lionel scrambled to his feet and came over to me. 

With his sword dropped where he had sat. 

‘Is he all right as a knight?’ 

Harry sighed as soon as I thought so. 

[Contractor, can we just leave him behind? I’m going to burst just by looking at that. ]

On our way back to the mansion, Lionel was still flustered. 

His flustered face has been twice as much as it had been before heading to the guesthouse. 

He must have been shocked to see that I burned the blackwood. 

The children’s mouth was left to Emma, so it was up to me for him. 

“Sir Lionel.” 

“Yes, miss.” 

“What you saw and heard today…” 

Lionel’s shoulders stiffened as I gently blurred the end of my words. 

He spoke with great reserve. 

“I won’t tell anyone what I saw and heard today.” 

“Yes, sir. If I hear it today from somewhere, I will think—“ 

“Think…” 

“I’m going to take your finger.” 

It was a ridiculous threat, but I thought it would be quite effective for a weak extra. 

And the prediction was right. 

“Hik!” 

Lionel was so nervous that he swallowed his breath. It was obvious that he was thinking ‘the rumor was true!’ 

“I will never tell anyone! I swear!” 

“Okay, I’ll trust you.” 

I looked at Lionel, who was shaking his head, and I pointed at his back. 

“But didn’t you see the sword back there? It seems familiar.” 

It was Lionel’s sword. 

Lionel turned his eyes to where my hand was pointed and said with surprise. 

“Yes, it’s very similar to my sword. It’s not a black one that’s so common that it rolls around the street. Is that my sword?” 

As Lionel began to fumble around his waist, Harry smiled and sighed deeply. 

[Contractor, it’s not too late. Let’s throw him away now. ]

Emma was lost in thought as she looked at the blazing fireplace. 

Yvesria Oberon. 

It was the name that came up in Emma’s mind. 

Erell is part of the Duke of Oberon, so rumours about in the main house have been widely spread among in the residents. 

Among them, rumours about Yvesria were the most common. It was because the rumors about her were the most stimulating. 

Isn’t whispering stimulating rumours can be the the best way to endure hard work? 

They said it was like that. 

The day went by as soon as they was whispering about the end of the talk 

There was a lot of talk about rumours of Yvesria. Most of them were negative. 

The witch who turned the capital upside down. The House of Oberon downfall. The Duke had given up his ambition. 

They said she was violent, unruly, and arrogant. 

So when the Baron asked her to become a direct servant girl of Yvesria, she was devastated. 

How can she handle such a wicked lady when she cut off her maid’s tongue for making a slip of tongue? 

If the Baron had not offered to double her hourly wage, she might have just quit her maid job.
