Chapter 82
TL: Zimming
“What are you talking about……Mireille didn’t understand…”
Then why did she act like that?
I smiled at her.
“I’m fine. You’re also fine, aren’t you?”
“……yes.”
I looked at my family.
“We’re both fine, so don’t worry.”
I brought an end to the fight.
***
Back in the room, I immediately communicated with the chairman. The chairman laughed when he heard of what had happened in the herb garden.
[Is it Vallua?]
“It doesn’t matter.”
[You have to let them know.]
“There’s no evidence.”
What did they do? She had silver hair and blue eyes, which were the symbols of Dubbled, and she looked very much like the Duchess.
In addition, the mage concluded that Dubbled’s energy was flowing in her.
In the midst of this, if I say Mireille is a fake, they wouldn’t believe it.
[Just because the mage was loyal to Dubbled in your previous life, I can’t completely believe that this life will be the same. People can be different depending on the situation.]
“I’ll have to call Veronica. She’s a better mage than the Dubbled’s mage, so we’ll be able to check again.”
[Yes, I will investigate the mage and Mireille.]
“Also the vassal who found Mireille. I’ll invite Veronica tomorrow, so she’ll come to the castle later.”
[Yes.]
As soon as I finished talking to the chairman, I wrote a letter to Veronica.
The next day in the afternoon, Veronica came to the castle as we held hands.
“Thank you for the invitation! I was really excited because it was my first official invitation.”
“No, I’m glad you came. Would you like to go to my room?”
“Yes!”
I clasped Veronica’s hand and climbed the stairs.
We ran into Mireille, who was coming down. She saw me and turned her head.
Veronica and I passed by her. After some distance Veronica glanced to her back.
“Is that her? The kid I need to check on.”
A brief explanation in the letter made her aware of the situation. I nodded.
“Do it secretly please. Can you do it without a barrier?”
“Of course, if you give me time to run into her, I can make sure she doesn’t notice. Doing things like that is my speciality…”
That’s what she said as she smiled shyly.
‘She’s a talent that suits Dubbled.’
I grinned.
Then we went into my room together. The maids who were on a standby began to move.
“You guys can go out now.”
“But…”
“I am going to tell her a secret.”
The maids blinked as I said deliberately.
“If it’s a secret…”
“Why do you ask. If she’s talking about a secret, there’s only one thing.”
As Yuni said with a suspicious smile, Dahlia blinked and thought about something,
“Oh, my!”
Then she closed her mouth.
“Is it already that time?!”
“Yes, yes.”
Yuni drove the maids out of the room and laughed.
“Have a good time.”
The excited voices of the maids leaked in from outside the room.
“Don’t act suspicious. We have to pretend we didn’t know anything.”
“Who is it, by the way?”
“As expected, one of the young boys she met at the tea party?”
“I heard that the eldest son of Viscount Myshank is handsome.”
The maid squealed. It must be a story that they were sharing secretly, but I can hear everything.
Then, Veronica’s eyes glistened.
“So you don’t have a man you like?”
I got goose bumps when I imagined holding hands with kids my age and saying lots of cringey words.
I shook my head firmly.
“Never.”
“What a shame.”
I said to the sullen Veronica.
“I’m not interested in men.”
“It can happen at your age.”
“How about you, Veronica?”
“I always dream of love. But no one suits my taste…”
I sometimes flinch when I realize Veronica’s age.
At that time, I heard a knock.
‘I guess it’s the chairman.’
“Come in.”
The door opened, and the chairman came in as Veronica raised herself up.
As soon as she looked up to him, I could see her eyes glistening in a different way than when she saw me.
“…….Veronica?”
“Ah! Yes, yes!”
“I’m Chairman of the Dubbled’s senate.”
She spread her skirt wide and bent her knees slightly.
“My name is Veronica Dubos. I didn’t have a chance to meet you before.”

“My name is Jean Marc Noanoke. Nice to meet you.”
The chairman explained my circumstances in detail, except that I regressed three times and could call out the devil.
“I doubt it was the Duke of Vallua. So we’re working on an investigation, and if you can check Mireille…”
“Miss Dubos?”
“Ah, yes!”
I looked at the two of them with an uneasy face.
On the surface, they look like a girl and a grandpa. But in fact, Veronica was about 20 years older than the chairman.
I pulled on the chairman’s sleeve when Veronica went to the bathroom.
“What do you think about someone 20 years older than you?”
“What are you saying…”
“Then what about a young girl?”
“I think an older man who dreams of a romance with a young girl deserves to die.”
He’s right.
Veronica came back.
She asked as soon as she sat down.
“So what am I supposed to do?”
“It’s almost time Mireille’s snack time. She’ll come out to the terrace, I think it’s about 10 meters away from the terrace in my room. Can you check the distance?”
“Of course.”
When I saw Veronica smiling with confidence, I smiled brightly. I picked the right person.
The chairman, who had greeted Veronica, left the room, and we decided to wait for Mireille on the terrace.
Veronica sees the chairman going out and sighed.
“Excuse me, Veronica…”
“Yes, little miss?”
“Do you like the chairman?”
Veronica whispers when I ask with a nervous face.
“How did you know?”
Veronica continued,
“He’s perfect for my dolls collection!”
“…Dolls?”
“I collect dolls. It would be perfect if I left that grandfather for the new doll this time! Ah, where can I get a doll like the chairman?”
Then, when I saw Veronica covering one cheek, I sighed with relief.
‘I’m so glad.’
Then, I heard a sound from Mireille’s terrace.
‘It’s snack time.’
I stared at Veronica and hid in the room. It was because Mireille would definitely avoid her if she sees her.
I heard Veronica and Mireille talking for a moment.
“You’re so young, yet you say you’re Dubos family head? That’s amazing!”
“I’m older than you think.”
“I see. Oh, but where’s my sister?”
“The little miss is away for a while.”
“I can’t believe she left her guests behind. That’s bad. Excuse me, Veronica. Why don’t you come over here and have a snack with Mireille? You know, Mireille was upset. Yesterday, my sister told me…”
Veronica kept silent while Mireille was chattering away.
‘She must have started checking.’
And three minutes later.
“The little miss must be back. I’m going back.”
“Really? That’s too bad…Next time, let’s play in Mireille’s room.”
Back to my room, Veronica shut the door tightly and whispered.
“I checked.”
“How was it?”
Veronica said, narrowing her forehead.
“I think I would have said it was the energy of Dubbled like mage.”
“What do you mean?”
“I can’t say exactly that it’s the energy of Dubbled, but it was very similar to their energy…like Johann’s?”
“I was called in by my predecessor when he was born to assess his mana. It’s almost the same feeling I felt then.”
“Is there any spell to change appearance?”
“There is, but she doesn’t use it.”
If so, is Mireille really the fourth child?
While I was pondering, I suddenly remembered the story I had with Veronica.
‘Dolls?’
Doll……
It was as if the puzzle that was in my head was completed.
I bit my lips tightly.
***
The girl, who came out of the dark, ran through the corridor quickly. She secretly went through the courtyard and went outside to a disposal site built near the forest to throw out waste water and trash.
Arriving at the foul-smelling disposal site, the girl picked up a huge bucket of water she had kept after disposing of the garbage.
She saw someone through a small gap between the walls.
“What…”
The person lit up the lamp to take a closer look.
Then,
“Looking for this?”
She could hear a small voice right next to her.
The girl, who was terribly surprised, stepped back and dropped the lamp. When the fire on the lamp spread to the grass, a little foot came out, and trampled the embers.
When she saw the face reflected in the dim light of the lamp, she closed her mouth.
“You……!”
“You shouldn’t play with fire at night. Lea will be in trouble……Mireille.”
Mireilla stared at the smiling Leblaine.
“Oh, my sister, why are you here…”
“I thought you’d find this, so I came to return it.”
Leblaine threw something into the grass. Mireille took a deep breath when she saw the rolling object.
