âHey excuse me, but are you giving me this room?â (Lise) 1
It was a quick yet immediate action that Ferelmen has assigned a maid named Jenny to accompany me.
Jenny is a maid in her mid-40s as her soft and gentle face gives a pretty strong impression. Her blue lake eyes and also her brown hair are rather ordinary.
It was said that she has been working with Ferelmen for the longest time.
âThis room is always empty.â (Ferelmen)
Ferelmen said briskly as he fixed his one-sided glasses.
For a second, I was slightly surprised with the roomâs design. It was way too feminine.
The interior designs are cute for an aristocratsâ little lady like my current age.
However, I am not even a little girl inside.
âYou can wear whatever you like, I donât care.â (Ferelmen)
I gasped loudly after opening the closet as I was too surprised.
The big closet was full with aristocratsâ and cute clothes for a little lady.
âW-waitâŚâ (Lise)
Is it just me, or Jennyâs face flushed as if she was embarrassed?
Being straightforward and shameless as he can be, Ferelmen said bitterly,
âWe were going to throw all these clothes after the seasonsâ ended. Since you are here, you can wear them all.â (Ferelmen)
âHaha.. t-thank you.â
It seems that he was giving me these pretty clothes even though heâs treating me coldly.
Ferelmen replied again while grumbling.
âTake note that Iâm not giving these clothes because I like you, Itâs just we need to throw them away after this season ends. But since you are a small girl that suits these dresses, I give them to you. Also, there is no thin and small girl like you in this Duchy.â (Ferelmen) 3
âAh, I s-see..â
âKeep it clear that Iâm giving you the clothes that I wanted to throw away.â (Ferelmen) 4
âOf course, my lord. I am aware that youâd given me these dumped clothes.â (Lise)
Ferelmen raised his sharp single-edged glasses as he speaks,
âI will ask someone to send you some books that you are obligated to read. You must memorize them by tomorrow.â
âUnderstood, my lord.â
âYou didnât ask how much that I need you to memorize? How many books will I be giving you later? Really?â
âHonestly, I donât really care.â
I shrugged.
âI can memorise a medical book Iâve read once without missing a single detail.â
Ferelmen laughed and left almost immediately without saying goodbye.
After a while, Jenny, who is still with me, asked carefully.
âMiss.. He always made his assistants memorise a dozen of books. Why donât you tell him that memorising them by tomorrow is too much for you?â (Jenny)
âNo, Iâm fine.â (Lise)
I answered without hesitating.
âIâm a genius so Iâm fine.â (Lise)
It was a self-confidence and high esteem that I donât intend to hide.
I have been living in this current age with nineteen years worthy knowledge. It is unlikely pretending to be stupid.
Jenny smiled and chuckled instead of giving me a peculiar face.
âMy my.. You remind me of Sir Ferelmen when heâs younger. Thatâs what he always said at your age,

When I didnât answer anything, he spoke to me with a straight face.
âWhat you are thinking right now is exactly what I am thinking now.â (Ferelmen)
