Chapter 117
There was no plan to tear anything away from Elcia in the first place.
“If you’re trying to clear the debt, I’ll decline.”
I tried to refuse, but the seeds wouldn’t work.
“Does not matter. I have no intention of discussing the debt just out of natural loyalty.”
“… … Hey, Mr. Chamberlain. Your lady has a really nice face and says stupid things.”
“… … please be quiet I think it’s going to be whatever it is now.”
“No, you, the attendant, have to stop it!”
It seems wrong.
“It’s a simple favor, but are you still going to refuse it? draft?”
“… … The word I hate the most is the word favor. I don’t think there is pure generosity in the world.”
half is sincere To put it bluntly, the words are closer to the nature of ‘Xian’ than mine.
“is it… … . Unexpectedly crooked.”
“Are you openly suspicious? Hey, the proud lady of the Lyoleate family? If you were on the opposite side, would you openly beg for it?”
“… … Probably not.”
It seems that I am also aware of it.
For Elcia, who pushes forward with pure confidence, it would still be difficult for her to seduce more tactfully.
‘It seems that he moderately refused. then… … .’
I was about to finish by saying that I would forget about today’s work to kill time and go back.
“Presume it’s like an apology.”
“miss!”
Maid Reirin, who was escaping from reality, became contemplative and tried to stop it, but it must have been a beat too late.
“Sian, this is an apology for the tyranny of our Lioleites.”
“Are you stupid, are you?”
The words came out involuntarily.
“I am not surprised. draft. Were you sure?”
Even if she was reckless, she wouldn’t be a really crazy girl.
At some point I was sure I knew.
“It was just a suspicious area. No, do you usually say that before that?”
“I thought that if I didn’t do that, they wouldn’t listen.”
She didn’t listen to my twisted words as mere sarcasm.
“Don’t be honest. Apology and… … And I will use my hand to keep you out of trouble for a while.”
“No, since I’m being honest, even if you put on a face like, ‘Well, how about it!’”
Maybe the word apology is not an excuse.
It must be sincere to say that I will help purely.
“… … .”
“Don’t worry. If you stay here, I will treat you as a guest. there… … .”
“What nonsense are you talking about again?”
“I’ll tell the savvy kids who work at my mansion to take it easy.”
I kept my mouth shut and quickly moved my gaze without anyone noticing.
The servants who work in the mansion.
Following the clothes they wore, commonly referred to as maid uniforms, with their eyes.
“… … If it’s an apology, well, when you say that, I can’t keep saying no.”
It passed.
The maids working in the mansion were too cute to refuse.
(……As expected, I like it. That. Yes, yes. As expected, this older sister’s eyes are not wrong.)
No, in this case, please just be quiet. Mr. Emily.
Are you really not hooked on having maids waiting on you?
I have my own thoughts.
(It’s okay to be honest with this older sister. That’s why my taste is a little shorter than that one.)
So don’t read other people’s desires!
* * *
Elcia Lyoleate.
The second daughter of the Duke of Lioleit.
As a senior in the 83rd Class of Philos Academy, she must understand the weight of the position she is holding better than anyone else.
Laziness is never allowed in her daily life.
early wake up.
By the time the sky shows signs of turning blue, Elcia has already woken up and started a brief practice.
Right after waking up, he practices martial arts to clear his drowsy mind.
“Suck!”
Grab a wooden spear, adjust your spearmanship posture, and shake off laziness with sweat.
You cannot waste any time.
After warming up to start the day diligently, she was catching her breath.
“… … It’s not a bad day today.”
Elcia predicts the premonition of the day by measuring the morning air.
“Whoaaa… … . what. Has the sun just risen… … . After all, the pillow changes, so I wake up soon.”
“Huh-huh, then let’s go again, Xian. Will this older sister give me a pat?”
“Okay… … . I’m going to sleep until daytime, so don’t wake me up.”
“How about taking a walk in the morning sometimes?”
“Are you crazy… … . Sleeping is better. If you act rashly in the morning, you won’t grow taller.”
“… … .”
The indolent will not understand.
Just by starting the morning early and tidying up like this, the difference in skill compared to other kids is widening.
Elcia’s day is busy.
Those who do not know her mistakenly believe that the life of the second daughter of the Duke of Lioleit will be leisurely.
obviously misunderstood.
“Raylin, what is today’s schedule?”
“I have a meeting with the head of Misilenga in the morning. After that, the magic class… … .”
“Unexpectedly enemy.”
“Before evaluation. We try to avoid making unnecessary promises whenever possible.”
She has to carry out her duties as an academy student and her daily routine as the duke’s second daughter at the same time.
There’s no way.
She, too, is neither tireless nor unwilling to rest.
But if you waste your time, you can’t guarantee the future.
“draft? Did something happen today?”
“ah… … . Did you decide to go to Carrot’s store? … . Oh, I don’t know. It’s annoying, so let’s go tomorrow.”
“I think you said something similar a few days ago?”
“are you okay. I can’t do anything when I’m not motivated, so I just have to wait until I’m motivated. Tomorrow’s work is tomorrow’s me… … I won’t.”
“… … .”
Laziness is not allowed.
Because neither he nor the world could benefit from such a life.
Even after the workday is over, Elcia is not allowed to rest.
Opening a theory book, I quietly begin to read it.
“How about taking a little break?”
“The evaluation is coming soon. You have to learn a little bit of countermeasures.”
“indeed… … .”
Responding calmly to the concerned attendant, Elcia concentrates on her studies in preparation for the upcoming evaluation.
Meanwhile.
“Sian, aren’t you studying?”
“Emily? Cramming works best if done the day before the exam.”
The consequences will not follow those who neglect their usual studies.
Elcia, who was convinced of this and working hard, smiled unwaveringly.
“… … Whoa.”
I closed the book with a light breath.
“I don’t know.”
I stared at the dark-haired boy who looked relaxed as if it was really hard to understand.
Although they are evaluated as equally excellent in the same learning field.
For some reason, a boy with a completely opposite atmosphere.
“… … I don’t know.”
* * *
I, Xian’s Haru, basically don’t think about countermeasures.
If there is a need to work, it is done in a hurry, and when it is not, it spreads more lazily than anyone else.
Ironically, I was a lazy cyan when I ended up living in Elcia’s mansion.
“… … Because there really isn’t anything more to do.”
I’ve already taken my share, and I’m done thinking about strategies to prepare for the test.
So until then what am I?
I need to rest!
gotta play!
I had no choice but to become more lazy due to the recoil of sleeping late and eating late-night snacks.
“I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just taking care of myself, so I’m going to put aside face and live comfortably.”
“I was the one who told you to be comfortable. I have no intention of criticizing it. just that… … Please be considerate of being overly intimate with your familiar. For the children who work in the mansion… … It looks a little irritating.”
“ah… … . We are sorry for that.”
It is a law that should be taken care of enough.
I was told to be comfortable, but I was too comfortable.
Just like my living room.
I limited my usual attitude to life by about 60%, but before I knew it, Elcia was looking at me with culture shock.
“I don’t want to say anything that points out my private life, but… … . Please be conscious of others.”
“uh? Are you conscious of this?”
When I was promiscuous, I was acting like I couldn’t see it any more.
If you see it, you’re obviously going to kick me out of the spot, so you’re being self-respecting, right?
“I’m very sorry for our Xian.”
“… … for a moment? Emily? Most of my bullying was done with you. You are an accomplice!”
Where are you pretending not to be, you devil.
To be sorry, you have to be sorry!
In any case, let’s shamelessly pass the blame on to Emily as if she didn’t show any remorse.
“… … You don’t have to look. draft.”
“huh?”
“I understand that you don’t want to show your routine, but aren’t you still waiting for the evaluation? Wouldn’t it be meaningless if it ruined your grades as well?”
“ah… … . Does that mean?”
Apparently, this lofty young lady was mistaken about something.
I happen to be indebted to Elcia’s mansion, but I’m not pretending to be lazy on purpose to hide my true nature.
Does it exist that there is a secret to getting it out of me in the first place?
“This is my nature, and my original way of life. Elcia.”
“… … Are you serious?”
“Well, it won’t be that different from usual.”
Oh, do you eat more rice or snacks?
It’s a rich family, so it’s basically luxurious.
I don’t gain weight.
Maybe I should cut back on my naps.
“Then talent… … Is it?”
“ok?”
The words Elcia muttered while looking at me reached my ears.
‘indeed… … . Is it like that?’
She suddenly questioned my attitude to life.
Asking directly means that there are other intentions.
There’s no way she would have brought me here all of a sudden with good intentions in the first place.
“Are you curious about my training secret? Elcia?”
From noble mtl dot com
“… … .”
keep your mouth shut
Aren’t you making excuses?
“Sometimes your gaze was aware. Especially Raylin-san, that maid sometimes secretly checks on you?”
“… … It means nothing else.”
“are you okay. I am the one who believes that there is no such thing as goodwill in all human actions.”
Every action principle has a ulterior motive.
Why did Elcia suddenly bring me to her house at this time? Is it really because of guilt over the family’s tyranny?
It’s not like there’s nothing at all, but I know better than anyone else that I have other ideas.
Her personality and interests… … .
“Anyway, it would be inappropriate for a lady from the House of Liolet to refer to.”
“… … draft.”
In the end, it seemed that Elcia had given up on pretending to be ignorant.
It’s her personality to ask questions rather than pull them off.
“I was just curious. I won’t deny that I thought it was a good opportunity.”
“what?”
“Sian, you are strong.”
I don’t mean to just flatter you.
“I was sure then. … … Xian, you will surely be stronger than me.”
“Um, well.”
I’m not trying to pass it off as if it wasn’t.
As she said, I must be on the strong side.
It’s the result of trying to make it happen.
“I thought maybe I could find out your secret.”
“So you watched and found out?”
“… … I don’t know any more.”
Elcia gave a complicated laugh.
I understand.
As far as I can see, there is no room in her life.
try harder than anyone else
The academy and the aristocratic world say that Elcia Lyoleate is a gifted genius more than anyone else.
She is a girl whose talent creates and solves everything.
Some people envy and envy
“Maybe genius is what I mean about you, Xian.”
“… … Does it look like that?”
“I don’t understand you.”
Is it like looking at an incomprehensible monster?
“Ask me if this is the case. Xian, how did you become so strong?”
Elcia only hopes for improvement.
I want to become stronger and pursue a higher realm.
However, even empty words cannot say that the desire to improve is healthy.
“Come to think of it, the past… … There was a saying about warlocks that they sold their souls to the devil.”
“Hmm, soul. It wouldn’t cost me a penny to sell it.”
“I would like to know.”
Express your true feelings and ask without hiding anything.
“draft… … . What did you do to build up your current skills?”
“You know what?”
“me too… … Because they want power.”
I guess so.
“I have to build up more strength and skills to become an excellent me.”
Rather than determination, I wonder if I can feel the sense of urgency.
She said it was to hear the secret, but it must be her true intentions that would never be easily shared by her during normal times.
“Will you teach me?”
Seriously, even if you ask me to teach you, it’s difficult.
‘I feel like I want to make people angry by saying it playfully, but it’s like a chimney.’
Clearly, she is asking seriously now.
I’m sorry for being playful.
“The secret… … . It’s a bit difficult to put into words.”
“Is it too difficult?”
“I am indebted to you. Anyway, it’s good that it happened like this.”
“hmm?”
“Elcia, are you free?”
No, even if you are not free, empty your time.
Don’t be puzzled. You were the one who spoke up.
“He said he was curious about what I usually do. Then follow me.”
There’s nothing I can’t show you.
“I was just going to do some work today.”
“Is it work? What are you trying to do?”
“The things I usually do that you are curious about.”
I’ll show you if you follow me.
