Chapter 8: CH 8

I definitely saw in [IPTVG] that it was green lavender.

Just what in the world happened?

“Hirda.” [Hilda.]

“Yes, Young Miss.”

“Do you know gween lavender?” [Do you know green lavender?]

“What is that?”

As expected, she didn’t know.

‘Is it because Dahlia was the first one to find it that it was named green lavender?’

However, when I thought of the narrative in the novel, it didn’t feel like that at all.

“Hmmmm.” I groaned.

On that kind of day, the maids, who were staring blankly, carefully spoke.

“Uhmm, Young Miss.”

“Yesh.”

“Since you have only been reading books for the past few days, why don’t you go out and play instead?”

Greta agreed with Hilda’s words.

“If one only reads books, one gets mold on their heads.”

The eyes of the maids who said so were teary.

It seemed that they felt very sorry for me, who was stuck in my room without any friends, not even one.

Come to think of it, it’s already been four days since I spent all of my time only in my room.

Unless it was time to read the ancient language, I even ate in my room.

‘It is indeed a bit suffocating.’

Should I go get some air?

“Okway, I’d wike to go out.” [Okay, I’d like to go out.]

“As expected, you’d want to, right? Grete, bring the Young Miss’ coat.”

“Yes.”

After wearing the coat, I went outside with Hilda and Greta.

The destination was a trail.

In the huge Astra Castle, apart from the garden, there were several trails as well as a greenhouse.

I jumped across the stones on the trail.

“Since you’ve gone out, your head became clearer, right?”

“Yesh!”

The trail which was recommended by the maids was quiet and still.

This place was more remote than all the other places, so it seemed like it wasn’t artificially decorated.

There were also wildflowers that grew naturally.

“It’s cold, but there aww a wot of fwowersh.” [It’s cold, but there are a lot of flowers.]

“It’s because of the magic item. It has an amazing effect, so many flowers bloom even in the winter.”

“It’s pwetty.” [It’s pretty.]

“Shall we make a flower crown? Wildflowers have light stems, so it’s perfect for making flower crowns.”

I squatted down on one side of the trail with the maids.

Carefully, I picked a few flowers and started making a flower crown.

It took a long time to weave a single flower as my hands were small and my muscles were not yet fully developed.

The maids watched with delight as I worked hard, sincerely focused.  

“Working so hard like that, who are you going to give it to?”

“I’m going tcho give ith to Conwad.” [I’m going to give it to Conrad.]

“The Young Miss likes Mister Conrad very much.”

Of course. He’s my precious information book.

Until now, the only one I could trust in the castle was Conrad.

The maids were good people, but they had no choice but to follow the butler’s orders.

And Viscount Debussy, who I saw often, was Grandfather’s person.

“It’ll be pretty if you weave it together with cherry blossoms.”

Greta picked a flower from a tree. Then Hilda said,

“That’s not cherry blossoms, those are apricot blossoms. This is an apricot tree, you know.”

“Ah….”

Embarrassed, Greta rubbed her hands against her apron.

I took the flower that was held in Greta’s hand.

“Apricot bwossomsh and cherry bwossomsh look similar. I’m confushed.” [Apricot blossoms and cherry blossoms look similar. I’m confused.]

“R-right?”

“Yup!”

It’s really nothing to be ashamed of.

‘Because they look so similar… Oh?’

With my eyes wide open, I jumped up.

Hilda and Greta, who were squatting down, looked at me.

“Young Miss?”

“I’m going tchoo go to my woom.” [I’m going to go to my room.]

“Aren’t you going to deliver the flower crown to Mister Conrad?”

“Hilda, gibb ith to him!” [Hilda, give it to him!]

Then I quickly ran back to my room.

‘It wasn’t lavender.’

There were flowers that were not easy to distinguish, just like apricot blossoms and cherry blossoms.

That was also the case with lavender and lilyturf.

From Dahlia’s point of view, the lilyturf must have looked like lavender. The two looked really similar after all.

‘It’s not green lavender at all. It’s green lilyturf!’

I opened the plant illustration book.

Quickly, I turned over the book pages to find the part where lilyturf appeared.

[Lilyturf]

Asparagales. It has a flowering appearance similar to that of lavender and it grows well in dry shade. Very rarely, there are times where its buds bloom green.

‘As expected!’

I eagerly remembered the characteristics of the place where lilyturf bloomed in the book.

I was happy to find a big hint, but I was at a loss. I didn’t know where I should start searching, especially because the castle was so large. 

Even after I wandered around in the shade all day, I couldn’t see even a glimps of it.

It was like trying to find a needle in a sandy beach.

But on the afternoon of the fifth day.

‘I saw root! No, I saw lilyturf!’

I raised both of my hands which were fully covered with dirt.

Among the purple flowers, there was a smaaaall flower that would be mistaken for a leaf at first glance.

This was the raw material needed for the Physical Regression Pills.

***

It was easy to get the rest of the ingredients.

It was because the castle had everything.

I went everywhere and simply placed my hands out,

“Pwease gibb me some fwour.” [Please give me some flour.]

—just like that, I was able to obtain all of the ingredients.

Flour was obtained from the kitchen, and evening primrose was obtained from the medicine warehouse. I didn’t forget to get the horse’s colostrum from the stable.

And like that…

‘Great!’

A day before Grandfather’s birthday, I completed the medicine.

There was only one stalk of green lavender, which was the raw material, so only two bottles came out. But, this was enough.

I grinned with excitement.

The maids who had just come in spoke to me.

“You’re in your room today.”

“Now I don’t habb tchoo go out anymore.” [Now I don’t have to go out anymore.]

Since the medicine was complete.

Looking at me, who looked extremely happy, the maids laughed, “Huhu.”

“That’s a relief. Since you have to try on your dress today.”

The administration ordered my dress for Grandfather’s birthday banquet.

It looked like it was completed today.

I headed to the drawing room.

The people in the dressing room had already come in advance, so they already had several dresses arranged and lined up.

Mrs. Rita, who came as representative of the dressing team, said with a kind look.

“Do you like it?”

Of course!

I approached people who were holding the hangers with dresses on them.

‘Wow, whoa—!’

It was so beautiful that I couldn’t even form any words.

The length was only up to the ankles so that a child wouldn’t trip over the hem and fall.

Various jewels were stuck over the embroidery which was engraved with golden thread. It looked like flowers blooming on a vine.

It was a dress that only a truly noble child would wear.

“Pwetty….” [Pretty….]

When I grabbed my cheeks with both of my small hands and “Hooo….” groaned, laughter burst around me.

Hilda grinned, perhaps the entranced me was cute.

“It’s because Mrs. Rita is a designer who can boast of her skills even in this Astra Manor!”

“Oh my, such praise.”

“What do you mean? I heard that even the direct descendants’ efforts bared no fruits even after they looked for Mrs. Rita.”

Come to think of it, it was odd. 

Mrs. Rita was a popular designer.

During the last party season, she received the highest praise for her unique and beautiful clothes.

That’s why I’m sure the direct descendants would also pay attention to her, but why out of everyone, did she choose to make my clothes? I’m powerless. 

Mrs. Rita covered one of Diana’s cheeks with her hand and said.

“Sir Conrad is quite scary.”

“Sir Conrad?”

“While ordering, he asked me to stamp a certain contract.”

“A contract?”

“Yes. Our boutique is dedicated to nobles, so it was the first time I’ve seen such a thing.”

“That’s indeed true. After all, who would try and cheat a boutique who only made clothes for nobles?”

“We also don’t dare to be the ones who bring in a contract first.”

“Yes…”

“But after stamping it, he said that I could only work on exactly one person’s dress for the Duke’s birthday banquet.”

“Oh my!”

“So we only worked on Miss Erylotte’s dress this time.”

‘Conrad is amazing!’

It was a matter of course to put their heart into the clothes of a higher-ranking person.

That’s why Conrad couldn’t do business with the other side at all.

I was afraid that Mrs. Rita would carelessly make my clothes, as she was too busy putting her heart into the other direct descendants’ clothes.

‘My, since he’s a very good worker.’

I was so proud of making Conrad my person that I laughed, “Hihi.”

It was then that–

A loud sound was heard through the open door of the drawing room.

“You idiots! You can’t even get one of those!”

“Since it’s something that’s only in the legends….”

“It’s impossible that there’s something that you can’t obtain! In Astra, you can get it if you put your mind into it!”

It was Liantyn.

With her face turning red, the child was huffing and puffing at her nanny.

“They lack sincerity. They’re ignoring me because I have the lowest rank among the direct descendants!”

“Don’t be like that… How about getting something else? Tomorrow is already the birthday banquet…”

“You’re so noisy! It must be God Dragon’s egg! It has to be God Dragon’s egg!”

Liantyn shouted and turned her head.

Then she made eye contact with me, who was in the drawing room.

When she saw Mrs. Rita with me, her expression became distorted.

The boutique people quickly curtsied. The very same even for the maid.

“We greet the Family’s Beloved.”

“I thought it was because of my cousins that you rejected my order…”

“….”

“Good thing I didn’t order. Would a dress made by a person who doesn’t have a good eye catch my eyes?”

Liantyn, who said so, walked in with long strides.

She then lifted an ink bottle on the table, and poured it all over my clothes.

“Oh my!”

“Oh my goodness…!”

Hilda and Mrs. Rita turned deadly pale.

Liantyn looked at me without giving the other people a single glance.

“I made it pretty for you, so that it would fit you. You’re thankful, right?”

Tuk.

The child who threw the ink bottle onto the floor smiled brightly.

I squatted down and picked up the ink bottle.

“Young Miss….”

Perhaps she thought that I was very disappointed, Hilda, who had a weak heart, didn’t know what to do.

But I…

Bang!

“KYAAACK—!”

I threw the ink bottle at Liantyn.

“…!”

“…!”

“…!”

Everyone in the room opened their mouths wide.

Liantyn, who was hit on the shoulder by the ink bottle, trembled.

“What are you…”

“You shaid it’s pwetty.” [You said it’s pretty.]

“Wha- What?!”

I smiled broadly.

“I made Owder Sishter pwetty too!” [I made Older Sister pretty too!]

Liantyn’s face turned red as if she was about to explode.

Trembling for a while, the child quickly raised up her hand.

“This…!”

“What is going on?”

Familiar voices were heard from the doorway.

It was Viscount Debussy and Conrad.

Liantyn held her hands tightly and bit her lips.

Then she looked at Viscount Debussy with a pitiful expression.

“Erylotte—”

“Owder Sister shaid that we’ll look pwetty if we spway thish.” [Older Sister said that we’ll look pretty if we spray this.]

“It’s not that—”

“I made Owder Sister pwetty, tchoo!” [I made Older Sister pretty, too!]

“No, I—”

“Right? Older Sister said it’s going to be pretty.”

“Let me talk—”

“But why is Owder Sister angwy?” [But why is Older Sister angry?]

When I cut off all of Liantyn’s words, she looked indignant and helpless. 

‘Do you think that I’ll let you tell on me?’

Viscount Debussy’s eyebrows wrinkled.

“I see.”

He then looked at Mrs. Rita.

“Fix Young Miss Erylotte’s dress well and bring it back.”

“Yes, Viscount.”

With that, it ended.

However, it was clear that this matter would reach Grandfather’s ears.

That’s why Liantyn was trying so hard to look good to Viscount Debussy, right?

“Then.” After saying that, Viscount Debussy bowed his head.

“Viscount! Wait a minute, Viscount!”

Liantyn chased him frantically.

I grinned, looking at the child’s back.

‘I mean, I’m the best at telling on people, you know?’

I’m saying that it’s my specialty.

***

Liantyn left the room trembling.

She tried to explain the ink bottle incident while chasing the Viscount around work all afternoon. But he only laughed, “Haha.”

“You don’t have to make excuses to me. Since I’ve heard enough about the situation.”

She clenched her fist tightly.

‘Cunning bitch. You think I’ll move on just like this?’

Liantyn took a step forward.

Her nanny, who was waiting outside, quickly followed her from behind.

“Young Miss, where are you going?”

“Where is that bitch’s room?”

“Yes?”

“I’m talking about that unlucky Half’s room!”

“I heard it’s on the 3rd floor of the separate house.”

Liantyn bit her lips hard.

‘Her place of living is in the separate house.’

The educational space for the third generation (the Duke’s grandchildren) was the new building. Bedrooms were also available in the new building. 

‘After all, there’s no room in the new building. How dare a filthy brat who lives in the separate building…’

Entering the hallway of the third floor, Liantyn headed straight to Erylotte’s room.

The guard who was guarding Erylotte’s room said,

“Young Miss Erylotte—”

“Get out of the way!”

Liantyn pushed the guard and went inside.

Liantyn’s nanny handed some gold coins to the flustered guard.

“You know how to behave, right?”

“Ye- Yes!”

The guard quickly put the gold coins in his arms and backed down.

Liantyn, who entered the room, frowned.

There was no one inside.

No Erylotte, and not even a single maid.

“Tsk.” Liantyn clicked her tongue and looked around the room.

It was a shabby room without a living room, study, or even a dressing room.

It could not even compare to her room at the new building.

The only furniture was a bed, a closet, and a desk.

‘Even the desk is all worn out…’

Liantyn opened the desk drawer roughly.

But there was something strange in it.

“Medicine bottles?”

A ribbon was poorly tied to the medicine bottles which looked like they were quickly placed. Next to it was a small card with crooked letters on it.

[Happy biwthday. Gwand father bwe healthy.]

Judging from the messed up sentence, it was clear that it was that bitch who wrote it.

“She even prepared a gift with her standing?”

“What kind of medicine is it?”

“Try to eat it, Nanny.”

“…Yes?”

The nanny was reluctant.

Is she telling me to eat it to know what kind of medicine it is?

“It’s usually nutritional supplements.”

“Didn’t I tell you to try eating it?!”

“….”

When Liantyn roughly gripped the medicine bottle and gave it, the nanny looked at it with trembling eyes.

When Liantyn was so stubborn, there was no one who could stop her.

If one didn’t listen to her order, one couldn’t know what kind of chaos would occur.

She drank the medicine with her eyes closed tightly.

“Tell me if your body condition feels weird. I’m going to blow it up on Grandfather’s birthday.”

Saying so, Liantyn closed the drawer roughly.

‘It’s not time to deal with this little shit yet.’

The other cousins come first.

Due to her poor performance in practice, she was pushed to the last place in the rankings.

To be seen well by Grandfather, she had to restore her rank.

But it was then.

“Ah…?”

Nanny clenched her chin.

“What? Why?”

“My teeth no longer hurt, Young Miss.”

“What did you say?”

“Recently, my teeth hurt so much that I couldn’t even eat, but now it doesn’t hurt at all.”

Liantyn hurriedly opened the desk drawer again.

She grabbed the remaining medicine bottle.

“Are you saying that this kind of thing has such effects? How did that Half get this kind of thing?”

“It must be Conrad Martial.”

“Conrad? Grandfather’s aide?”

“I heard that he was also the one who monopolized Mrs. Rita to make Young Miss Erylotte’s dress.”

Conrad Martial was a well-known man for his outstanding ability.

Therefore, at a young age, he became the aide of the Duke of Astra.

‘He’s surely stupid. To think that he would hold Half’s hand.’

Liantyn stared at the medicine bottle.

“This medicine is wasted on such a bitch.”

She put the medicine bottle in her pocket.

“Stop searching for God Dragon’s eggs. Since I’ve got Grandfather’s gift.”

Liantyn laughed arrogantly.
