Episode 76

“Oh, that jerk Crown Prince, why is he dragging my time too much………!”

If Iker hadn’t held me up as an excuse to talk at the end, I could have returned to the Academy at 2 p.m.

But because of my conversation with him, I had to stay in the Noble State field for about 40 minutes more than other Housekeepers.

After all, I was swearing, changing my clothes at full speed and running for class.

Since I submitted a note of absence, it wouldn’t affect my attendance, and it didn’t matter if I went back to my room and rested.

However, it was a loss to give up classes since I have paid the tuition fees that feels like sucking my blood.

‘Should I not change my clothes?’

But soon I shook my head again.

It was obvious that this fancy dress would attract everyone’s attention.

And when I thought of wearing this clothing while having a practical class, my stomach felt twisted.

It was a nice outfit, but wearing this was like wearing a mustang or tuxedo to an elementary school student’s birthday party.

In the meantime, I arrived at the classroom and carefully opened the door.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to enter the classroom unnoticed.

As soon as the door opened, I made eye contact with the students attending the class, and the professor looked back at me with a slight surprise.

“Ah……sorry… I’m sorry….. I’m… I just got here and…….”

I ran so fast that my lungs felt sore and my head felt dizzy.

The professor said that it was okay with a pitiful face as if he didn’t like me speaking gibberish.

He told me to sit down quickly.

“And I’ve already received your reasons for absence, so don’t worry and take your breath away, Miss Spade.”

“Thank you.”

“Now, the rest of you, please look ahead. I’ll continue with the class.”

I returned to my seat like that, and in the meantime, some of the students looked back at me with impatience.

‘But I’m glad I could at least attend one…….’

Suddenly I felt like I was losing all my strength.

Now, until next week’s meeting, I could enjoy my daily life.

***

“Yerine.”

It was Cassius who came to me first as soon as the class bell rang.

Somehow I was relieved to see his sharp eyes drooping and anxiously looking at me.

“Are you okay? You looked really tired because you came in a hurry earlier.”

Cassius talked to me, looking at me, sitting with his knees bent.

“You’re worried again. I said I’m okay.”

“But still.”

His answer gave me a big laugh.

“I feel good. Thank you for caring.”

Saying so, I gently squeezed his hand on my desk.

He even often kissed me on the back of my hand, but at my act, Cassius showed a startling look. Still, he didn’t take his hand out.

“What is it? Why are you being like this?”

“It’s because I’m happy to see you.”

I waved my hand slightly and let go of Cassius’ hand with a weak smile.

At least in front of Cassius, I felt at ease and comfortable because I didn’t have to put my guard on or roll my head.

“Yerine.”

Rachel, Astra, and Rayl came in as soon as I let go of Cassius’ hand.

They were all looking at me with their eyes full of anticipation.

“You know, today, oh, Erica’s here. Wait a minute.”

First, Astra, who started out, went to pick up Erica, who was poking her head in front of the classroom door.

And when I heard Erica had come, I jumped up from my desk.

“Erica!”

“Yerine.”

Erica, who was running like a rabbit along with the Astra, opened her mouth, rolling her watery pink eyes as if she had put tourmaline in it.

“People say you didn’t come today…….”

She seemed to take a hint as she broached the subject, wondering if I had missed the class because I had gone through something bad.

So I tried hard to pull up my immobile facial muscles and smiled broadly.

“Yes, I’ve had some work. It’s all worked out well, so you don’t have to worry.”

Erica’s face began to glow brightly in my words.

“That’s a relief. I was worried if something happened.”

“Yes, everything’s fine now.”

Meanwhile, Rayl, Rachel, and Astra exchanged meaningful glances at each other.

As Erica and I were whispering in our conversation, they soon giggled.

“You know, Yerine.”

When the conversation with Erica ended, Rachel spoke in a hoarse voice, showing her white teeth.

“Huh?”

Strangely enough, Rachel still had an exceptionally excited look on her face, as if she were still feeling the excitement after the banquet, 12 hours later.

“Congratulations, Duke of Spade.”

As Rachel spoke out, Rayl and Astra clapped with fervent applause, and Cassius began to clap with a smile on his eyes.

“You, as expected, you knew it too.”

From the first time she ran to me, I had been anticipating it to some extent because the three looked excited.

And the Duke of Ale Club would have told her daughter about my promotion right after the family meeting.

“Honestly, I had a hunch when I saw that you didn’t come in the morning.”

Rayl said, shrugging.

“You could have gone there because something urgent came up, but I had a feeling for some reason. I thought it was time for you to be promoted right there.”

“That’s a reasonable guess, Rayl.”

I smiled back at Rayl’s words.

“Congratulations on your promotion to the Housekeepers.”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, when can I get in that position?”

As Astra sighed and talked, Rachel spoke with her fingers in her mouth.

“Well, we’ll be there soon.”

“But by then, Yerine will be the oldest and will be grumpy to us and will treat us like residents.”

Rayl raised his eyes and shot one more word.

“No, no way. Why would I do that to you guys?”

“The sooner you know the taste of power, the scarier it is–”

Rayl shook his head and said.

“Oh, is that so? Then, Rayl, I’ll make you my first target then.”

“Wow, that’s so mean.”

Rachel and Astra both burst into laughter as Rayl made a prank with an exaggerated look as if the sky had collapsed.

“Congratulations, Yerine. Now you’re really becoming a respectable Housekeeper.”

Taking advantage of the gap, Cassius said with a smile.

“Thank you.”

“You had a hard time getting there early in the morning. Get some rest today.”

Then he lowered himself and whispered in my ear.

“Tell me if you need healing because I’m really good at recovering the fatigue.”

“Haha, no. It’s okay.”

“Oh, this is making me sad.”

“I’m saving it for later.”

In my words, Cassius grinned as if he couldn’t help it.

“Well, Yerine, congratulations…..! So you went outside because of the appointment ceremony.”

“Thanks, Erica.”

Erica shook her head and gave a fresh smile to my grateful.

“That’s great. To celebrate this day, we should hold a special praise party with our fan club members.”

For some reason, the story seemed a little off, but I decided to let it go.

“I don’t like you very much, but you’re saying the right thing this time, Blothea.”

“When did I ever say anything wrong about Yerine? That’s what a fan club president should be.”

“But don’t be relieved. I’m always looking for the position.”

Why does the prince want to be the president of the fan club, not the emperor?

“Oh, let’s all go for dinner.”

A special meal is coming out today-”

So I came out into the hallway in the hands of Astra, and our party walked toward the restaurant, making a lot of noise. It was hectic and noisy. Still, it was too comfortable.

There were obviously good people at the Housekeepers conference, but there I had more responsibilities and burdens. That’s probably why this place feels so comfortable.

“I think I’m back now.”

Smiling silently, I murmured.

***

I was so tired, so on my way back from Noble State Field, I drank two more bottles of Rayl’s nutritional supplements. And now, because of that, I couldn’t sleep.

I didn’t sleep for nearly two hours after the banquet, so I washed up and lay down on the bed as soon as I had dinner, but my eyes were so wide open.

“No matter how early this night, how can it be so impossible to get to sleep at 8 o’clock….?”

Perhaps because the important work was over, or because of the awakening condition of the nutrient, it seemed that I was more energized right after the class.

Oh, or is it simply because I had dinner?

‘The dinner was delicious. There is also fried chicken.’

I was about to come out to get some fresh air with such useless thoughts.

But I was not the only one who couldn’t sleep, since I saw a shadow moving around the entrance of the dormitory.

A tall, relatively thin body.

I knew that silhouette.

“Rayl?”

He looked startled at my voice calling his name and looking back.

“Who is it?”

“It’s me, Yerine.”

“Ah.”

As I approached the silhouette, I saw familiar features.

The emerald eyes, dimly moonlit, glowed softly.

“Why are you out at night?”

Rayl asked, with his eyes wide open.

“Oh, I can’t sleep.”

“You can’t sleep? Didn’t you leave early in the morning?”

“Yes.”

“And yesterday’s banquet ended after midnight. There’s no way you can’t sleep.”

I answered his words with a scratch on my head.

“I was worried that I might doze off at a Housekeepers conference, so I picked up a lot of your nutritional supplements and drank it. And I think this is what happened.”

“What? I told you to drink just the right amount.”

Rayl was sensitive to ignoring the dosage and how to take it, perhaps because of his speciality in making magic drugs.

Still, I couldn’t help it because I was desperate enough not to fall asleep the next day.

“You made it anyway, so there will be nothing bad about my body.”

“I made it with only good ingredients, but if it’s too much, it’ll have side effects. Although, I’ve tried to reduce it as much as I can.”

“I don’t know, I’ll just trust you, the magic golden hand. I’m fine except for that I can’t sleep right now anyway.”

“Oh, I don’t know.”

And for a while, the silence sank.

For some reason, as I was still looking at the starry sky, the conversation didn’t come back and forth, and it wasn’t until a few minutes later that Rayl opened his mouth first.

“Hey.”

“Huh?”

The moment I looked back at him, I was very surprised.

The way he was laughing and chatting until just now went away, and Rayl, who looked as serious as he was making the magic drugs, was looking at me.

I didn’t know what questions would come out of his mouth.

“How did the Housekeepers meeting feel?”

I looked at his eyes with a clear, strong will, and quietly bit his lips.
