by fnovelpiaA few days later. Marian’s office.
“Huh?”
It wasn’t an answer.
“Nadia.”
A flash flashed before my eyes and a pure white girl appeared.
“Lady Marian. I think she gets prettier every time I see her.”
“I don’t think that’s what you would say?”
Nadia became a beauty who could be said to be peerless.
A kid like this is an extra who didn’t even appear in the original.
‘but. ‘I’m an extra too.’
I stretched and leaned deeply against the backrest. Then I saw my reflection in the mirror. The sight of my sun-dappled silver hair flowing down my shoulders was very beautiful, even though it was mine.
“Hehe.”
Without hesitation, Nadia knelt down and leaned on my lap. Pure white hair gently tickled my legs.
It looks like a puppy following its owner.
“Nadia, I said you don’t have to do that.”
“But, you are my master.”
“Um.”
It looks like a cat, but acts like a dog.
No, I’ve said it several times, but seeing it behave so unruly, is it really a cat?
“What’s going on?”
I sighed.
“Hehe. That’s it.”
I heard that Cassano ran away without being tried.
So, Nazar followed him and harassed him in many ways…
‘hmm.’
Actually, I forgot.
The noble daughters who suffered damage from him were reluctant to go to trial, and the victims, who were mostly commoners, had no means of coercing him, who was a nobleman.
Suddenly, the contents of the report I received from Nazar passed by.
[As a result of testing Cassano Delight Youngsik to see if magical castration was possible, the results were satisfactory…]
I just read it roughly and it says magical castration… Is that really possible…?
“Lady?”
“It’s nothing.”
I shook my head.
‘No matter how you look at it, he’s a bad guy and it’s not my job.’
Right now, my mind was filled with thoughts of a partner to take to the prom.
“Lady. Are you busy right now?”
“Hmm. Specifically?”
Nadia smiled brightly and snapped her fingers.
“Then let’s go get some fresh air~”
Then a gate opened in the middle of the office.
Warm sunlight and vegetation can be seen beyond the gate.
“I will escort you.”
Nadia held out her hand.
“I guess so.”
I held her hand and crossed the gate.
“How do you feel?”
“It’s okay.”
There was no sense of discomfort.
It was as if I had just crossed a gate, and with that alone I was transported to a forest far away from the capital.
‘This is so.’
In the original work, only the male protagonist reached the 7th circle. Even he had to use the gate.
It was a conversation between Ren, Esteban, and Yuri.
In short, gate sickness.
This is a common phenomenon in hastily built gates.
“How do you feel? The air is good, right?”
She spun around like she was dancing. Shiny white hair flutters. A white girl dancing in a green forest.
‘It’s like a fairy.’
There’s something… it seems like there’s a lot of power inflation compared to the original.
“Miss, over there, over there!”
There was a group of people where Nadia pointed.
‘How should I express this?’
A swamp as big as a lake. Footprints of horses that are presumed to have already run away, and a carriage that looks like a wrecked ship.
“Fuck! What is this! It’s sticky, it’s already up to my chin. What are you doing! Work as much as you get paid, save me quickly!”
There was a blonde haired person with only her face sticking out and her mouth opening like a crucian carp.
“Ah. It’s better~ If you struggle like that, you’ll fall in love even more. Still. Just stay still and we will take care of it.”
In short, March of Fools? No. Did they already say they were Nadia’s people?
So you’re saying it’s all done on purpose?
‘Sports day?’
Just by looking at it, you can see that it is a huge swamp created by magic. Cassano and his carriage fell into it.
I don’t know what to do when I see him struggling. To be precise, ‘mercenaries stomping their feet as if they don’t know what to do.’
“How do you feel? Isn’t it fun?”
“Okay?”
It felt like watching a modern comedy program.
‘Has it been about 30 minutes?’
One mercenary toppled a freshly cut log into the swamp.
“Ahh!!”
A log much thicker than the torso of an adult struck Cassano in the shoulder.
‘Wow… this must hurt.’
Grab this and come up. I think it feels that way.
“Ah, maybe you should have done better.”
“Sorry for this, Nauri. I’m trying to save you, are you okay?”
There was no answer from Cassano, who lowered his head.
‘Isn’t that the person who fainted?’
After a while. A man who appeared to be the leader threw a rope. A skill so good that it brings to mind a cowboy. The rope wrapped around Cassano’s upper body immediately pulled him out of the swamp.
“It’s early today.”
“Your skills are getting better.”
Exclamations of exclamation are heard from all over the place.
As if it was not the first time, the mercenaries threw the limp Cassano into the carriage and started running, carrying the carriage like a palanquin.
It was nothing special, but I watched them until they disappeared. Even thinking about it again makes me laugh.
Will the sound of laughter be cut off?
The man who looked like the leader lowered his head as if he noticed this.
It’s also a right angle bow bent at 90 degrees.
‘He’s a mercenary…’
Not as much as knights, but compared to soldiers.
‘It’s definitely useful?’
In the first place, famous knights are not suitable for secret missions.
“Lady, lady! Check this out!”
There was a small lake in the direction Nadia pointed.
“It’s pretty.”
Nadia, dressed in pure white from head to toe, was beautiful even though it was in contrast to the green forest.
*
At that time, Maria, who was reading the report, asked coldly.
“Cassano Delight had an accident?”
“Yes, Maria. It is also strange that he suddenly returned after leaving the capital, but unless the carriage was an accident, it cannot be explained… What should I say about this? It was such a mess. He also had an accident and was immediately taken to the hospital with a fractured leg and splints on both arms. Not only that, but the mansion was completely burned down…”
“So?”
Seeing Maria nodding her head without changing her expression even though it was quite a long report, the aide, sweating coldly, continued speaking.
“Yes… And that’s… I don’t think I should say this to the young lady.”
“Say.”
The aide was overcome with internal distress by the firm voice that did not allow for counterargument.
‘Let’s show only good things to our daughters.’
The words I heard from the matriarch pass through my mind. But I didn’t have the talent to overcome the cold eyes right in front of me.
“Yes, yes…! So… as a man, he suffered a serious injury to an important part… . From what I heard, there was a problem from the beginning… . ah. Anyway, you can rest assured that you won’t be snooping around on Lady Marian anymore.”
In fact, he was left in such a serious condition that he even had to report that the part that could be said to be a symbol of man was amputated, but he vaguely reported it because he had a premonition that he would be killed by the owner if he dared to even say that.
“That’s right…”
Maria tapped the table with her delicate fingers as if she had no intention of further questioning.
It was sorted out before I even had to do anything, so even though it wasn’t a bad situation, something felt uneasy. Moreover, it is a flame that cannot be extinguished even when magic is used…
‘I was thinking of tidying up before I bothered our good Marian.’
Marian didn’t seem interested either, so maybe it wasn’t something to worry about.
‘By chance, at the exact moment when he flirted with Marian, his scandal erupted, a lawsuit was filed, and while he was running away, he got into a carriage accident and came back with serious injuries?’
I care.
“There are still a lot.”
Maria sighed. Heir to the dukedom and student council president. It was a position that everyone would envy, but even she couldn’t resolve the piles of documents and agenda items in an instant, even if she was smart. Because of that, her nerves were on edge right now.
‘Marian… my sister. I miss you.’
Things are getting out of hand today.
‘I can’t do this.’
Maria jumped up.
“Oh, lady?”
The aide looked at me in confusion.
“Why.”
He cringed at the frost-cold voice and pointed to a mountain of documents.
“I… there are documents for payment…”
“I’m going to take it with me.”
The documents piled up in the room came to mind.
“Yes…?!”
I walked away, ignoring the bewildered look he was giving me.
“Marian~”
My brother’s office was empty.
“Where did you go?”
If I’m going to play with Marian, I have to finish this first, right?
The documents that were floating in the air landed on the desk one after another.
“How long will it take?”
Maria turned her attention to the pile of papers that needed to be processed.
‘The restaurant and logistics business has been developing at an incredible pace in recent years…’
‘The current duchy is not lacking at all if it is called the second capital…’
The words the officials said passed quickly through Maria’s mind.
That alone was doing the job perfectly.
She had a lot of work to do. Not only the work of the successor but also the work of the student council president. Still, the documents were being organized at a fast pace.
Then at some point. Maria’s hand stopped.
A conversation with the dean comes to mind.
‘Count Aines sent a large donation.’
‘so?’
‘…I want to be in the same class as Princess Marian.’
‘Dismissed. ‘No way.’
‘……’
‘answer.’
‘…All right.’
I remember the Dean laughing awkwardly.
“…Would Marianne be angry if she found out?”
Maria shook her head and started looking at the documents again.
‘The flow of funds is strange…?’
Maria’s eyes narrowed.
Not only the duchy but also the capital. The flow of funds was converging in one place, centered on the western district.
‘It’s Marian’s store.’
Maria nodded and moved her pen.
“No abnormality.”
Just the trace of her younger brother brought a smile to Maria’s face.
