Sid Valerie’s eyes finally turned dark when I told him I would notify the Duke of Elrad.
“How dare a poor girl like you! People like you just lie flat like worms and eat the garbage we give you
!”
“Stop it, Lord Valerie!”
“No, madam
!”
Just as Sid Valerie grabbed me by the collar, the voice I heard was that of a woman. Sid Valerie, who hastily threw me to the floor, hesitated and faltered away.
“Well, this isn’t what you think.”
“Don’t even think about making excuses.”
When the Duke appeared after that, Sid Valerie’s face turned white.
Sid Valerie’s face turned white when the duke appeared.
“Lia, are you okay?”
The Duchess rushed up to me and fell to the floor and examined the wound on my arm. I tried to cast my eyes down at her worried expression
Actually, all of this was my plan.
<Madam, I saw it while taking a walk. Sprouts were growing in the garden.>
<Oh my, is that true? The ground must still be frozen.>
<I think spring is coming already.>
Having said this over breakfast and dessert, I was convinced that the Duchess would come here for a walk with the Duke this afternoon.
This is because the Duchess took him out for a walk at a certain time every day for the Duke who couldn’t come out due to the work of the estate.
‘And since she’s interested in my story, they’ll probably come this way.’
Of course, it didn’t matter if it didn’t go the way I thought it would. Because I was really planning on going to Duke.
And I tried to put an end to Sid Valerie when I found out about his lies and confessed that he tried to threaten me.
But without the need for a cumbersome play, the two showed up.
“No sir! All of this is
 Taze! He used that kid to set a trap to frame me!” (Sid)
Sid Valerie, who acted tough and arrogant just a moment ago, knelt at once and begged the Duke of Elrad.
The Duke’s eyes were even colder. As soon as the investigation begins, the crime will be unequivocally revealed.
“If this is a trap, did Sir Sedian also purchase the Perion mines? Sir Sedian might not even know how much the Rexion Knights’ budget is!”
“Yes, how can I do that?”
Sid Valerie, who was deeply surprised, soon looked up at Duke Elrad dumbfounded. The Duke also looked surprised.
Allen couldn’t understand the situation right in front of him right now. His body stiffened and he couldn’t breathe well.
At first, it made no sense for him to grant Lia’s wish with that absurd bet.
At that time, I thought that Lia was young and didn’t know much, so she was fearless and thoughtlessly arrogant. Even though she wasn’t even an apprentice knight, she went out to fight kids who were much bigger than her.
In fact, Allen was worried about Leah, but he also wanted her to get frightened to scold her.
But the little flying squirrel-like child was very quick, restrained, and showed fierce movements.
Other children may not have noticed, but Allen saw it clearly.
‘At the end, I thought she was holding a dagger, not a comb.’
It’s also very close to the edge, I couldn’t believe my eyes, but the result was clear.
Allen was strangely not so upset when she stayed still and granted his wish.
On the contrary, I was looking forward to what she would wish for.
<Please let me meet the vice-commander.>
But Lia’s wish was a completely unexpected one. He couldn’t understand, but I already promised to listen, so Allen called his teacher separately like he had something to tell him.
And I was just trying to hide and see what Lia was up to.
‘It was Master who put Diana in danger
’
At a time when I was confused, I couldn’t believe what words were coming out of Lia’s mouth, my teacher, who I respected and admired so much, began shouting at Lia, his behavior was unfamiliar to his usual self.
He had never shown such a violent side in front of me. My body trembled by itself and my hands and feet became cold.
I wanted to go out screaming what was going on with his head, but my body stiffened, and couldn’t move.
And father and mother who just appeared.
“For now, I’ll take the child. I don’t want her near this man anymore.”
My mother knelt and raised the child, looking coldly at Sid begging to father.
As Lia, who was leaving with my mother, passed by, I unwittingly curled up and hid.
And in that brief moment, Lia turned her head.
Allen, who bowed his head deeply, thought that their eyes suddenly met, but shook his head inwardly. He hoped it was an illusion, by all means.
