Chapter 79: 79

Chapter 79

TL: Zimming

The chairman let me know what was going on.

Nine years ago, the brothers, who were pushed out by my father, couldn’t give up until the end and attacked them.

It was when dad was away for work, so Risette had to flee while being pregnant.

There was Lea, who was on Irie then and Lea’s older sister Reina, who was a maid of Risette, on the castle.

The three girls left the castle safely, but suddenly Risette’s belly hurt, so they helped her.

The Duchess gave birth safely. It was Reina who helped her giving birth.

In the meantime, Lea faced tons of knights which was too much to defeat by herself.

Eventually, the Duchess died, and Reina entrusted Lea with the baby wrapped in a blanket.

Reina became bait and tried to chase the pursuer, but she died on the blade of the pursuer.

Lea also desperately protected the child. But she couldn’t hold on.

“After that, His Excellency cleared up the rebellion and searched the place, but we couldn’t find the child.”

I nodded when I heard the chairman.

“We had no choice but to hide about what happened to Risette, because of our enemies.”

If it was revealed that he had lost his wife and children due to a mere rebellion, the honor of Dubbled would have fallen to the ground.

Most of all, my father who lost his child and wife at the same time was not in a good condition back then.

If another enemy took this chance to attack them, the situation would be out of control.

Thus, the vassals, led by Dubos, joined forces to cover up the case.

Then, a vassal saw a child who looked like the Duchess.

The vassal was on a vacation when he saw the child. After that he told Viscount Dubos.

Viscount Dubos, who knew the truth of the matter, investigated it. He said that a couple, who had no child, had found a baby in the mountains and raised her.

“But why did we find the child in this life? It never happened in my previous lives.”

There is only one case in which the future changes. When I intervene.

“But what’s the change?”

As I murmured, the chairman said while putting a piece of sugar in my teacup,

“Thanks to you, the vassals were able to take a vacation.”

“……”

“Or she could be a fake.”

“The second one is almost impossible. It’s only a small number of people in Dubbled who knew about the missing child.”

The girl has all the symbols of Dubbled.

The mages even went to check her energy, it was confirmed that she had the energy of Dubbled.

There’s no way a mage of Dubbled could make a mistake. He was an excellent mage and he’s absolutely loyal to Dubbled.

He was a loyal mage who protected father and died later.

While I was thinking about it, the door to the greenhouse opened and a girl of my age came in.

When my eyes met with the child, I widened my eyes in surprise.

‘The child.’

“Lady!”

Many maids followed her and tried to brought her out after bowing at the chairman.

“We’re sorry, little miss.”

Then she whispered to the child.

“You can’t just come in when they’re in the middle of a conversation.”

“But, Mireille missed my sister!”

I blinked when I heard her calling me her sister.

‘She’s like Mina.’

She was very cheerful and was able to get along well with people.

The child approached me and smiled innocently.

“Hello, I’m Mireille…”

The child, who paused for a moment, stretched out her skirt and bent her knees slightly.

“The fourth child of Duke Dubbled, Mireille, nice to meet you.”

Then she looked at Lea and the maids,

“What do you think?”

The maids only laughed.

“Now that I have already introduced myself, sister should also introduce yourself!”

She suddenly said that and I felt a little awkward.

“Hello, my name is Leblaine……”

“Wow—!”

Mireille shouted and hugged my arms.

The maids murmured,

“Both of them are super cute……”

“Let’s go sister, let’s eat together.”

“Ah, but I……”

I still have something to talk about to the chairman.

Mireille saw the chairman and said,

“Grandfather, Mireille wants to play with my sister, can I take her?”

“You should ask for her permission instead.”

The chairman answered politely, Mireille was silent for a moment but suddenly pulled my arms.

“Let’s go, sister.”

I left the greenhouse while being dragged by her, I said to the chairman quietly,

“I’m so sorry.”

The chairman nodded.

Mireille was a really cheerful kid. She chattered with excitement the whole time we walked.

“Mireille and sister are actually the same age. Mireille’s mother gave birth to me in January and sister’s mother gave birth to you in February. But Mireille likes being the youngest, the youngest are always loved more, right? So sister needs to be older than me.”

“That’s not something I can decide at will…”

“Everyone thinks Mireille is precious. Everyone lets me do everything I wanted to, when I said I wanted you as a sister, dad didn’t say no. My dad thinks Mireille is precious too.”

Anyway, if Mireille is registered in the family registry, the title will naturally be corrected.

“You know, I’ve never seen such a nice castle before. Will the people be nice to Mireille?”

“They’re all good people.”

“But I think that grandfather is bad.”

“What?”

I looked at Mireille in surprise.

“I asked you nicely but he got angry.”

“He’s not angry. He’s just not great at handling kids.”

“Why? That grandfather must have had children too. Why couldn’t he handle children? Did he have no children?”

“He once had a child. But his son died in an accident a long time ago.”

“I guess his son died because of the grandfather’s bad temper. Right?”

I was so surprised that I stopped walking and looked at Mireille.

“You can’t say that!”

“……huh?”

“That’s very mean and the words will make him sad.”

Mireille became sullen.

“……alright.”

I sighed and grabbed Mireille’s shoulder slightly.

“The chairman really loved his son. It would hurt him so much if you said that. Don’t ever say that again okay?”

“Yes……Mireille is wrong. Don’t get angry sister.”

I nodded then Mireille became cheerful again as if she was never sullen. When we entered the dining room, she still didn’t stop talking.

There was dad, Nos and some vassals in the room.

As I walked, I said hello to Nos. Mireille sat close to my father and waved at Nos.

“Hello there!”

The vassals who heard Mireille stared at the child.

“Her voice sounded similar to Risette…”

“Yes, it will be hard to tell them apart when she grows up.”

Meanwhile, Mireille was immersed in her conversation with Nos.

“Did you come yesterday?”

“Yes, lady.”

Mireille covered her mouth with her hands and said,

“I’m a lady. Mireille is not used to being called a lady.”

“You’ll get used to it soon.”

“Yes, I should get used to it quickly. I can’t make any mistakes!”

“Mistake?”

“Mireille made my sister upset today because I said mean things. I guess it’s because Mireille is not used to a proper way of speaking.”

Everyone’s eyes in the dining room turned to me. Then she changed the topic with an awkward expression.

“So, where am I going to stay later?”

“The west wing.”

“Is there any room left for the lady?”

After the death of his predecessor, Dad repaired the library in the castle.

The rooms of the ancestors and the rooms of the brothers were completely renovated.

As a result, there were only a few rooms for children, so I could have my own room only after it was renovated.

Dad asked Nos,

“Did the construction start?”

“Yes, it wouldn’t take much time to install the security system and fixed the room.”

“How long?”

“I expect it to be two weeks. I’ve unpacked her luggage in a room next to the little miss, is it okay?”

Then Mireille raised her arms and shouted,

“I wanted to share a room with dad!”

“Lady, that’s……”

“It’s so big here, I think I’ll be scared at night. It’s okay right? Dad?”

“……”

“Is it alright?”

The vassals looked rather troubled but they think she was just being childish.

“She must be the first lady who acted childish to you.”

“Yes, the little miss was not childish when she was young.”

“Mireille is mature and eats vegetables well too.”

When she ate the vegetables that came with the dish, the vassals laughed and said,

“Lady is very mature.”

As usual, it was easy to eat because my family didn’t talk a lot.

That evening, a vassal approached me, while I was going back to my room.

I was close with this vassal because he treated me well.

“That, little miss……”

“Huh?”

“For the time being, I think it’s better not to argue with Mireille…”

They must have thought that I had a fight with Mireille when she said that I was upset.

“No, we didn’t argue.”

“I’m glad to hear that. You need to get along well.”

Only then did the vassal smiled after I nodded.

The vassals came one by one separately and gave me some advice as well.

‘I need to treat Mireille well.’

I went to my dad’s room to take some snacks.

I took a bear shaped cookie that I really like. When I dipped it in milk, it melts in my mouth, it was very tasty.

I put the snacks and milk on the tray as I headed to Mireille’s room.

Before I knocked, I could hear a cheerful voice from outside.

“Back then, people always read Mireille fairy tales. It has become a habit, so I couldn’t sleep without hearing fairy tales. Can you read it for me too, dad? My dad has such a nice voice that I feel like I’m going to be able to sleep.”

After the whiny voice said so, Isaac grumbled.

“Just go to sleep. You’re bothering us.”

“Why don’t you make a habit of sleeping without fairytales in the future?”

Next was Henry’s voice.

“This is the first day Mireille came, I want to sleep with everyone. Okay? Don’t go big brother. Huh? Hey don’t go!”

“Let go of me.”

“Mireille, lie down here.”

I guess she’s spending time with her family.

It was the first time she met her family, she must have wanted to be pampered by them.

I turned my back as I held my tray.
