15 – 15 – The maid’s first tenet.
Fried’s second son’s room.
In the bed, the owner of the room, Edward, is lying unconscious and still unable to open his eyes.
Around him are the family doctor who examines him, as well as Camilla, Lilith, Grace, and Emma.
” What the hell! Why can’t I come to my senses yet? “
Camilla screamed loudly and became angry at the doctor when her child was unable to open his eyes for hours.
When she, who usually kept a blank expression, screamed with a distorted expression, the congressman was embarrassed and responded with a trembling voice.
” Well, I think it’s because of other factors. “
” Is it because of other factors? Please tell me quickly! “
Because the lawmaker was unsure and could not answer properly, this time her eldest daughter Lilith shouted and urged the lawmaker.
” As you know, Young master was exposed to life and aura in a man’s body. “
” This is my mistake. “If only I had drawn my sword sooner…”
” No, Grace! The energy of that hero was difficult for even a woman to resist! “
” That’s right, and I also clearly saw that you immediately covered it and blocked it. “
” Yes, you have done enough, Grace. “
When Grace blamed herself and regretted what the doctor said, Emma, who was next to her, comforted her, and the other two seemed to agree.
” Well, the priests cast divine spells and some time has passed, so isn’t it okay? “
After Edward fell.
Because her champion had her arm amputated during the battle with Grace, Tennessa had no choice but to focus on her to heal her teeth.
Still, the visiting priests from the remaining church cast a holy spell on Edward, who had lost his mind.
It wasn’t just one or two priests from the church.
Not only the people of the Frigid family but also Princess Charlotte were very angry.
Because the main culprit that caused the situation was a warrior from the church, all the priests present did their best to cast holy magic on Edward.
So even though he did not become Pope, he would not have lacked divine power.
In fact, Charlotte tried to keep mobilizing her priests to stay with her, but by orders from Emperor Elisabeth that it was too much, the only people present at this location were members of the Frigid family.
” It looks like the mental shock was so great that he fell into a coma. “
” By mental shock… Do you mean that you were surprised and shocked by the hero’s actions? “
” Rather than just being surprised… Perhaps it’s because of the hero’s life… It seems like a shock due to fear or terror. “
” Fear.. Well.. I think the sight of a warrior who pours his death into my son, who is a man, is something to be afraid of. “
” But… Even before the bitch went crazy, Ed got scared as soon as he saw the bitch and his condition became strange. “
” That’s right, Young master had trouble breathing as soon as he saw the man called Yongsa! “
At first, Camilla thought that her son was afraid of the hero’s rampage, but after listening to Lilith and Emma’s story, it seemed like she was afraid of the hero himself.
That’s why I muttered, recalling old memories.
” No way.. I knew that Ed was a scared child who always trembled at something, but..”
” Uh, Ed was shaking from something? “
” .. Lilith.. I guess the other two didn’t notice either, as they were either by Ed’s side or together.. “
The women, including Lilith, who heard Camilla’s mumbling looked like they didn’t understand.
Camilla, recalling a conversation she had with her son before his debutante, remembered that Edward did not deny that he was afraid of something at the time.
She clearly had something to fear.
I think that’s why she didn’t want to attend the debutante…
Did she expect something like this to happen and decide not to attend?
Camilla’s expression could not help but darken due to the disaster that occurred when she was forced to attend the debutante.
“But she’s not just out of her mind because she’s scared. “
” Yes, yes, what the matriarch said is correct. I think it’s because you were very shocked. “
” Does that mean he is a hero? “
” Yes, so in conclusion, it seems that due to the combination of exposure to a powerful aura in the body of a weak man and mental shock, he has not yet awakened even after time has passed. “
” So when do you think my son will be able to open his eyes? “
“Well.. If we keep doing this wrong, he may not be able to keep his eyes open..”
” That’s impossible! What is the reason! “
Continuing to examine Edward, the councilor cautiously opened his mouth.
” It’s not like he just lost his mind.. It’s like his body..”
” Your body? “
“What is Young master’ condition right now?”
” Hurry up and say it. “
” It’s like a dead person’s body. “
” What? A dead person? “
” Ed is going to die? “
” Jin, please calm down. Your Highness, Princess!.. I’m not saying you’re dead, I’m just saying that you’re in a similar state! “
As soon as he said the word death, the lawmaker quickly spoke again to calm down the excited people.
” Ugh.. I should have drawn my sword sooner..”
After hearing the doctor’s words, Grace blamed herself again.
” If you are in a state similar to death, aren’t you in a very critical condition? “
” Well, there is nothing wrong with Young master’ breathing or pulse, but rigor mortis is about to occur in the body.. “
” Then, hurry up and call the priests, no, the Pope, for healing! “
“You have already received enough divine magic..”
” No! “
” I will go back and cut it down right now! “
” Just calm down! Wasn’t it in front of the patient? “
When she started to make a fuss, Camilla stopped them.
And after confirming that everyone had calmed down a little, she asked the congressman.
“Why on earth is Ed’s body in such a state? “
” Well, that’s my personal opinion, but I think it was because Young master himself realized that he had died.”
” … Are you saying you think Ed died on his own? “
” Yes.. I think the shock was too great. “If the priests hadn’t grabbed him right away when he collapsed, he could have died of shock.”
” Ed!!! “
” Young master!! “
Before the congressman finished speaking, the rest of the women except Camilla screamed.
” Calm down, everyone! “
” Ha, but Young master! “
” Mother, my Edgar! “
” … It’s actually hard for me to bear it too..”
“I’m sorry. Your Majesty, but the rigor mortis has not progressed to the whole body like in a truly dead person, but has only progressed slightly around the jaw area. As time passes, Young master will be able to stand up on his own because he is young! “
When the situation got so bad, the congressman tried his best to comfort them in any way possible.
” Haha… I can’t believe it gave Ed such a big shock…”
” Damn warrior bitch! “
As soon as Lilith saw Edward in the debutante’s banquet hall, she couldn’t help but swear at the hero who pretended to know her and suddenly went on a rampage.
” In addition to that evil energy, the hero’s condition is definitely strange..”
The so-called hero was surrounded by a dark energy, something that seemed like a legend from the distant past, so I didn’t know much about it since I’d never actually seen it, but even so, the color couldn’t help but look ominous and evil.
” Mother! And, the bitch called Ed a weird name. “
” Yes, I heard that too. Did you say that? I guess I need to look into that too. “
It was strange that the warrior knew Edward, and he called him by a strange name, so confirmation was definitely needed from the church.
But all that aside.
Lilith was very angry because of one fact.
“Why didn’t you kick that bitch out right away! “
It’s not enough to kick her out right away, because that hateful woman is staying in Frigid’s residence.
” I also have a lot of desire to do that, but didn’t you say that Tenesa is a hero? “
” Are heroes that important? What on earth! Ed may never be able to open his eyes again now! “
” .. I guess you don’t know much since you haven’t inherited the family line yet.. I’ll explain this later. “
” …. “
” Grace. “
Camilla called a knight to escort her own son, leaving her Lilith unconvinced by her own words.
” Yes. “
” Do not do anything else, just do something to stay by Ed’s side. “
” Of course it’s something I have to do…”
” No, I am saying that you should only protect it. “
” Yes? “
” It would be nice to think of it as a probation sentence. “
From Noble mtl dot com
” Ah.. Yes, thank you. His Majesty the Grand Duke. “
Camilla was honest and did not want to impose formal discipline, but because her political situation was complicated, it was a decision she had no choice but to make.
Because Grace went so far as to cut off the arm of the ‘warrior’ and even tried to kill him, he couldn’t just get away with it.
Even if the Frigid Archduke family holds a high position in the empire, they cannot be careless about being a ‘hero’.
Still, since it was because the warrior had made a mess, Tenesa was not dissatisfied with Camilla, who gave her a formal punishment, but instead thanked her.
” Phew… First of all, the room is too crowded. Ed won’t be able to rest properly either. “
” Then I will be by your side. “
” … Even if I try to stop him, he will say no. First, I will go out to meet the emperor and the pope. Let Lilith and the council member stay with Ed. “
Camilla then gave instructions to those around her to organize the situation.
” Well, I.. “
” Um… Emma, I know you really care about Ed, but there are too many people. “
” Yes.. “
” Guard the door with Grace. “
” Yes.. “
She also seemed to want to stay with her son’s personal maid, but Camilla decided that it was not a good idea to have too many people, even though it was not a small room, so Camilla ordered Emma and Grace to leave and she went out as well. .
.
.
.
By the Archduke’s order, two women are standing outside the door of Edward’s room.
It had only been a few days since they had stood together to prevent their master from acting unexpectedly, but this time, Grace and Emma were standing together for a different reason.
This time, it was Grace who spoke first.
” Emma, I’m sorry. “
” … “
Grace wants to apologize to not only herself, but also Lilith and Emma, as they are the ones who thought of their owner more than anyone else.
She planned to apologize again to Lilith later if she had the chance.
” Actually, I wanted to draw my sword right away, but since it was Young master’ debutante, I think I hesitated a little..”
” Ah.. No, Grace. “I completely understand..”
” … “
This time, Emma didn’t hide her true feelings and was honest about whether she would be angry, but she understood Grace’s position.
However, unlike before, Emma’s expression was clearly expressionless and dark.
“ And Grace was very angry too, right? ”
” Huh? “
“ To that hero.. ”
” M, Emma? “
And the atmosphere has definitely changed as well.
” Ah.. I’m sorry, Grace. I have some business to do, so I’ll go for a while. “
” Yes, yes… Leave Young master to me. “
” Yes, thank you. “
Grace was a little embarrassed about Emma leaving her place outside of Edward’s visit, as she feared that her foot prints would fall, but she decided that she was leaving to collect her thoughts in her own way. Greeted him and sent him on his way.
.
.

After breaking up with Grace, Emma walked.
Slowly.
Tap, step, step,
‘ Young master! Young master! ‘
No, a little faster.
Tabak Tabak
‘I can never forgive you. ‘
Everything, everything!!
The walking speed became faster and faster.
While walking like that, Emma thought.
Even though time has passed since her precious Young master, she cannot open her eyes.
According to the congressman, she may never be able to live.
That shouldn’t be the case.
And I hated the bitch who was the culprit of this so much.
I can’t stand it.
Emma headed towards the back of the garden outside her mansion with her quick steps.
A lot of time had already passed and the moon was rising in the dark night sky.
” … Master. “
She muttered, lifting her head.
A title used only in childhood.
As she got older, she said she was like a child now and she muttered the title that he had told her not to call.
I looked at the window of the guest room where the hateful being was staying.
And.
She took out her weapon that had been hidden under her skirt.
“ I can’t forgive. ”
With those words, her portrait disappeared into the darkness.
Made’s first tenet.
Maid Emma is not only devoted to service, but also to everything else.
The first credo she created for her beloved master was…
Anyone who harms you, we will kill you unconditionally.
