“Hey excuse me, but are you giving me this room?” (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.
“This room is always empty.” (Ferelmen)
Ferelmen said briskly as he fixed his one-sided glasses.
For a second, I was slightly surprised with the room’s design. It was way too feminine.
The interior designs are cute for an aristocrats’ little lady like my current age.
However, I am not even a little girl inside.
“You can wear whatever you like, I don’t care.” (Ferelmen)
I gasped loudly after opening the closet as I was too surprised.
The big closet was full with aristocrats’ and cute clothes for a little lady.
“W-wait…” (Lise)
Is it just me, or Jenny’s face flushed as if she was embarrassed?
Being straightforward and shameless as he can be, Ferelmen said bitterly,
“We were going to throw all these clothes after the seasons’ ended. Since you are here, you can wear them all.” (Ferelmen)
“Haha.. t-thank you.”
It seems that he was giving me these pretty clothes even though he’s treating me coldly.
Ferelmen replied again while grumbling.
“Take note that I’m not giving these clothes because I like you, It’s 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.” (Ferelmen) 3
“Ah, I s-see..”
“Keep it clear that I’m giving you the clothes that I wanted to throw away.” (Ferelmen) 4
“Of course, my lord. I am aware that you’d given me these dumped clothes.” (Lise)
Ferelmen raised his sharp single-edged glasses as he speaks,
“I will ask someone to send you some books that you are obligated to read. You must memorize them by tomorrow.”
“Understood, my lord.”
“You didn’t ask how much that I need you to memorize? How many books will I be giving you later? Really?”
“Honestly, I don’t really care.”
I shrugged.
“I can memorise a medical book I’ve read once without missing a single detail.”
Ferelmen laughed and left almost immediately without saying goodbye.
After a while, Jenny, who is still with me, asked carefully.
“Miss.. He always made his assistants memorise a dozen of books. Why don’t you tell him that memorising them by tomorrow is too much for you?” (Jenny)
“No, I’m fine.” (Lise)
I answered without hesitating.
“I’m a genius so I’m fine.” (Lise)
It was a self-confidence and high esteem that I don’t 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.
“My my.. You remind me of Sir Ferelmen when he’s younger. That’s what he always said at your age,

When I didn’t answer anything, he spoke to me with a straight face.
“What you are thinking right now is exactly what I am thinking now.” (Ferelmen)

Perhaps our bonding was either very good or very bad.
