Why isn’t he coming—?

Edric looked seriously at the closed door.

By any change— He was also worried that the teacher’s bag might be thrown into the sieve just like the last time with the village chief. If it was Lobel, it was still there.

After a while, the door opened and Lobel entered.

“Young Master!” 

…What’s that? 

Edric frowned when he found a bunch of flowers that Lobel brought.

White parchment paper was used to wrap the flowers, which had thin and small purple petals. It was so unattractive that calling it a bouquet of flowers seemed embarrassing.

Did he suddenly leave just because of those flowers?

He felt it was strange, but Lobel, who placed the flowers on the desk, brushed his palms on his pants and held a fountain pen.

“Okay now, let’s write the name of this flower.”

Lobel put the ‘ia’ next to the ‘Lobel’ written by Edric.

Lobelia.

“If you add ‘ia’ here, it is the name of this flower. Lobelia.”

“…Lobelia?” 

This seems to be the reason Lobel brought the flowers. To tell him one more word.

Perhaps it was because the word ‘Lobel’ was included, and the color of the petals was purple, like Lovel’s eyes, and the flower, which had never been seen before, looked somehow special.

Edric looked at the flower and said the name several times.

Then, Lobel scratched his cheek shyly and then nodded his head.

“Yes. This is Lobelia.”

Then he laughed, pointing accurately with his hand.

“For the time being, you don’t need anything else and you can just remember this. Just remember my name. Then I will do it all.”

“….”

“I will watch over that man Oliver or Olive, and if he was bad, I will drive him out.”

“…Yes.” 

He answered, but he didn’t believe it.

Edric wasn’t stupid either.

The person who came in to teach him took an oath, and he had previously signed the Denkart seal, thus the situation was unchangeable.

No matter how good Lobel was and his exclusive servant, it was impossible. However, he knew enough of Lovel’s deep heart.

He soon stared at the letters written by Lovel. 

The characters that resemble the owner’s personality and seem to be written in a blunt font were surprisingly as sophisticated as Oliver’s. It kept catching his eye.

Concentrating on it, he didn’t even hear Lobel’s bewildered voice.

“Ugh…I’m serious, why don’t you believe me?” 

******

“He won’t last long and will give up soon.” 

Oliver put the teacup to his lips, lightly convinced.

Among the many children of noble families, Edric was the most outstanding in his family and appearance, but his skills were the worst.

Even after a month, when he was looking at him wandering through even small spelling, he couldn’t even laugh in vainly. The splendid background was a waste.

It’s surprising that he’s working hard even though he can’t keep up with the progress at all, but he doesn’t know. How long will that last?

As a child, he will soon lose interest and say he can’t do it, he will quit.

The Duchess asked him, smiling leisurely like a man ahead of an easy problem.

“I see. Did you check what I said before?”

“Madam, the Young Master is barely writing his name. Isn’t that just a prank of children?”

Oliver said with a smiling face.

Ancient language is a study that takes years for beginners to learn to read.

Those who learn slowly may take ten years just to read. But how dare for a Young Master who doesn’t even know how to write?

If anyone else had said it would go beyond being the Duchess, he would have been furious about not wasting time with the nonsense. 

“Still, please watch carefully.”.

He thought for a moment if she was joking, but there was no playfulness on the face of the Duchess, who was smiling softly.

She seemed to have a tendency to think more unnecessarily than she looked.

Well, she is about to lose her family to an illegitimate son with no such background, and it will be tough for her to keep her composure.

In any case, it was not a loss-making business. In return for this achievement, he will receive the southern granary area.

“I will keep that in mind.”

Oliver, who skillfully hid his insides, immediately left the office.

He turned his head from side to side and looked at the empty hallway several times. There was no one today.

Still, while walking down the hallway, he looked back several times and looked out his window. Even so, it was gloomy.

It was because he always had the feeling that someone was watching him.

‘…Is it because it’s raining outside?’

Of all things, he didn’t like the weather either.

The sky was overcast with gray dark clouds, and the rain grew thicker.

It wasn’t strange even when there was thunder. Even if it was simply climate change, it was gloomy.

‘…What do you mean a southeast paradise? Tsk.’

It simply increased his determination to make him quit immediately and return.

The method was simple.

The Young Master he had taught so far was more naive than he looked. It was considerably different from the idea that he would be filled with anger since he had lived as a commoner before becoming a nobleman.

He is trying to treat him as a real teacher who will sprinkle ashes in his future.

When he saw him so nervous that he even spoke respectfully, his stomach was twisted.

‘It’s an undeserved position for such an ignorant person—e will be kicked out of this place anyway, let alone become a successor.’

He headed to the room laughing at the Young Master.

Just then, something grabbed Oliver’s hem from behind.

“…!”

Oliver, who gulped and swallowed dry saliva, hardened in that state.

‘There’s no sign—!’

Oliver turned his head right away and didn’t see what is it. 

Contrary to appearances, he was lacking in this area. He used to believe in superstition as well.

He was about to turn his head nervously when he heard laughter behind him.

“Why are you so surprised?”

A disgusting voice every time he hears it.

When he turned his head, there was Lobel, the exclusive servant of the stupid owner.

The round eyes were nicely curved into a crescent moon. All he could see was a smooth-faced man, as handsome as the owner.

But he was never in a situation where he would be smiling face to face.

‘Can’t believe they’re playing around with me—’

Oliver, his face hardened in displeasure, clapped his palm on the edge of his jacket and stared at him.

“Lobel, don’t you have a mouth?”

“I’m sorry. No matter how much I call, the teacher won’t hear me.”

The sound of the rain was as strong as the thick rain.

No matter how young he was, he was the Young Master’s exclusive servant, so he could not treat him recklessly.

He groaned and asked angrily.

“What business did you come all the way here?”

“The kitchen want me to ask you. What will you have for refreshment tomorrow—?”

“I told you last time that it doesn’t matter. Isn’t it?”

When the servant’s comments were cut short, he was embarrassed and not know what to do.

He scratched his cheek in embarrassment, then bowed his head and apologized.

“Ah. Is that so? I’m sorry. I guess I forgot again. I’m really sorry.”

He was about to say something, but at the end of the hallway, busy maids caught his attention.

Everyone was complaining that it was raining and the stairs were dirty.

‘…I have eyes to see, so I have to endure it.’

In addition, he came out so low that he could not find fault.

Oliver said, softly changing his blunt face.

“It’s okay. Please be careful next time.”

“Hehe. Yes, I will.”

—He believes he has heard this roughly 20 times so far.

His memory seems to be poor because he resembles his owner.

‘Ignorant, ignorant, ignorant punk. This is why the servant works all the time.’

Why does he continually act as if he hasn’t learned?

Oliver sarcastic inwardly looked at Lobel’s distant back.

It was only for a while. He hadn’t seen him for long, so he soon turned off his nerves.

It was time to puIt was when he pulled the doorknob to enter the room. Something was stuck in the gap in the door.

At first glance, it was such a thin newspaper that he wondered if it was a paper note.

‘…Newspaper?’

Oliver took it out.

It was discolored as if it had been quite a while since it was published, but the imperial newspaper was clear.

He doesn’t know why they brought old newspapers.

Still, since he’s a tutor, he thought that an attendant could take care of a newspaper or something.

‘The butler, who is careful in everything, may have told him ahead of time.’

It was one of Oliver’s old habits to read the changing situation of the empire through newspapers, but he didn’t see it here because he was preparing for the Young Master’s lessons.

Of course, if you paid attention, you could have had that much free time.

But he didn’t.

‘It’s not even necessary.’

After all, if he finishes this job, he will play and eat for the rest of his life.

However, this time, since he had already received it, he decided to open it. Spending time alone in a quiet room was about to get boring.

He took it and entered the room.

He took off his coat and lay in bed in a comfortable position. As usual, he decided to read the newspaper from the front page.

However, even before reading one side properly, his expression hardened.

Boom!

Thunder and lightning struck over the window behind his back. Thanks to this, the title of the dark front page was clearly seen.

[Lezandar family’s orb is stolen]

It was a case involving an orb that had been stolen four years before by a group of robbers.

It was also a rare event that shook the entire empire at the time.

But Oliver also knew a lot more than what was revealed in the paper.

Because he was the one who taught the discipline of the prestigious family at the time.

‘….’

He threw the newspaper into the burning fire with a nervous gesture.
