Chapter 38: 38

Chapter 38

“Then, my loyal friend, Sir Procyon, what happened to my request?”

At the mention of it, Procyon’s face immediately glowed.

He was truly the youngest of eleven sons. He couldn’t even manage his facial expressions.

“I succeeded in having a sincere conversation with the Lord for the second time. He didn’t think of you as bad as you thought he would, but…” Procyon cheerfully said. Procyon looked at Aedis’ face and lowered his voice for no reason. “The Second Lord is afraid that Your Highness will dispose of the First Lord like a sheet of paper.”

Aedis tied my braided hair in place with a string and let me go.

Seeing his satisfactory expression, it seemed I didn’t have to go in front of the mirror to check it.

I began to pay attention again and turned to Procyon.

“Using common sense, do you think it’s possible?” I asked.

However, the young knight who claimed to be my loyalist only tilted his head.

“Maybe it’s possible for Your Highness?”

‘Why is my image already like this?’

Even if I suddenly flew a dragon one day, Procyon would be moderately convinced and say, “It’s possible for Your Highness.”

“Oh, and I also spoke with Mrs. Theresa. Suddenly, the Lord asked for pocket money.”

My eyelashes fluttered. Mrs. Theresa was Regen’s nanny, and she had quite a lot of authority.

“Pocket money?”

“It was the first time he asked. Mrs. Theresa seemed to be surprised too. She said that if he had something he wanted, she could buy him the best one, but he said he just needed the money.”

‘Why do I have such an ominous feeling?’

“Oh, uh, thanks for letting me know. You can go rest now.”

Procyon stared at me with big, dog-like eyes.

“Your Highness, you’re okay, right?”

“Yes, I just need a little time.”

Time to grasp reality.

“If you have anything to ask me, please call me anytime. Then I’ll say goodbye—”

“Quickly.”

Procyon jumped, a conditioned reflex, at Aedis’ low, cold voice.

“I’m on my way!”

Procyon hurriedly exited, his green hair fluttering behind him.

Aedis didn’t spare Procyon a glance, even up until the very end.

He slowly opened his mouth to speak. “I don’t understand.”

His voice was a very different voice from when he ordered Procyon. It was like light moonlight, warm tea, maple syrup.

“What? ”

“There is no reason for you to hang on to your relationship with Regen right?”

Aedis noticed that I was greatly agitated.

I came up with an excuse I had prepared in advance.

“I have already beaten Gilbert. I don’t have to go against the Second Lord.”

“I don’t know how much you know, but they are both siblings. For Regen, Gilbert is family that he can’t really hate, no matter what crimes he has committed.”

No matter what sin he has committed.

“No matter how friendly you may be, you may be betrayed at a crucial moment just because Gilbert is his family. And since we’re already talking about it, one more thing. Regen is not just an ordinary child.”

Regen’s awakening in the novel was several years later, but Aedis already knew the talent in Regen.

He was no ordinary baby.

“I’ll take your advice. But isn’t the Lord is still eight years old? And Aedis, you are the Lord’s family too.”

I know how this world, which was in the novel Esmeralda’s Crescent Moon, would develop.

Even if I didn’t see the last chapter, I was aware of the fact that through a series of incidents, Regen couldn’t let Gilbert go through a series of incidents.

But Regen liked Aedis just like he liked Gilbert.

Everyone would feel that way if given the opportunity to watch the two from the side.

Aedis bit his mouth. He seemed to swallow my words in his mind.

‘You have a lot of secrets, too.’

“Is it because I really don’t understand, or are you giving me advice because you’re afraid I’ll get hurt later?”

“I’ve told you before, but my wife thinks too much of me.”

He spoke with a face filled with complex and subtle emotions that couldn’t be described in one word.

I smiled and replied, “Well, my husband is a good person.”

“…”

Aedis seemed doubtful.

But I really thought I picked a good husband. Every time I opened my eyes and saw Aedis’s face in the morning, I admired my foresight. Just staring at him made me happy.

I conveyed my heart to Aedis.

“If I were to be betrayed by the Lord in the future, you’ll be very helpful. You’ll pat my head, get my knee blankets, and take off my pants. Isn’t that right?”

“I don’t think I’ll take off your pants.”

“Then…”

“I made a slip of the tongue. There’s no way my wife needs my intervention. It’s late at night, so let’s go to bed.”

Aedis, who quickly cut off my words, pointed to the bed with his chin.

‘Wait a minute! I still have something to say.’

“It’s not a slip of the tongue, it’s an intervention. Please continue to pay attention to me in the future.”

“….”

“Is that too much to ask?”

“…”

“Am I really in trouble?”

I stared intently at Aedis

It was an attack that worked on Sarah and even defeated my blunt parents.

‘Look at my eyes. Don’t they seem shiny? Feel the power!’

“…this time.”

His eyes did not blink, but Aedis reluctantly broke the silence with a sigh.

“What?”

“This time, I lost.”

‘Um, well, then did I win this time?’

***

The next day, I wrapped myself in a blanket and set out to find Regen.

It didn’t take long. Sarah had a schedule for Regen that Mrs. Theresa gave her.

Sarah, who found Regen, whispered as if she had received a secret order. “Your Highness, he’s over there.”

I nodded my head and placed a hand over my heart solemnly.

The eight-year-old boy said he was frightened because he thought I could easily defeat his brother.

If so, the solution was simple. Just pretend to be weak.

Sarah then stepped back.

Left alone, I waited for Regen to come out to the end of the hallway to climb the stairs and then began my acting.

“Oh, I feel dizzy all of a sudden!”

“Your Highness?!”

Regen, amazed, grabbed me with both hands.

I did my best to create a convincing expression.

“My Lord? My God, thank you for holding me.”

“Are you okay? I’ll call someone soon!”

While supporting me, Regen’s rabbit-like eyes looked for employees.

However, there were no maids or butlers on this floor.

I showed off a million-dollar smile that I had practiced in front of Aedis.

“You don’t have to. It always happens.”

“Always… this?”

“I am naturally weak, so I often feel dizzy.”

“Ah…Yes…Naturally.”

He seemed a bit distrustful, but I wouldn’t have started it if I were going to step down from here.

As I staggered, Regen carefully spoke to me. “Would you like to go to my room and take a break?”

“Yes, I’d love to.”

Regen relaxed and laughed.

“But Your Highness. Why are you going around alone?”

I pretended to be sick again.

“Ah, my head is pounding again.”

“Ca-can I pick you up?!”

I refused to be carried by an eight-year-old, so I said, “It’ll be okay if I hold your hand like this.”

“Oh, Yes? Yes…”

Regen took me to his own room, which was nearby.

I laid on the bed carefully and he covered me with a blanket, so I stayed calm.

“Excuse me for a minute, Your Highness.”

Apart from his trembling fingers, Regen seemed to take care of me properly.

He even put a small hand on my forehead and carefully examined my complexion.

It felt like I was playing hospital for some reason.

“Doctor—no—My Lord.”

“Yes! Go ahead!”

“Am I really such a bother?”

Regen was greatly startled.

“Not at all! I know that Your Highness is a g-g-g-good person!”

‘Why are you stuttering so much? I’m a little hurt.’
