Became the Hated Illegitimate Son of the Duke in Romance Fantasy

60 – Episode 60

After saying goodbye to Belita, she briefly talks with Misty.

“Uh, um. Then I won’t see you for the next few months?”

“Yes.”

“Well, as long as the priest doesn’t follow me, it’s okay… Even if it’s not okay, I think I’ll be able to endure it.”

Then Misty puts her lips clumsily to my cheeks.

If I tried to avoid her, she would have been able to avoid it, but she doesn’t feel the need to, so I just let it go.

My lips are slightly attached, then they separate, and he is looking at me with a bewildered expression.

“Oh, of course I thought I would avoid it. Aren’t you avoiding it?”

“Just think of it as a parting gift.”

At that, Misty looked like she was going to cry a little, then shook her head and smiled bashfully.

She said, “While Eric was out of sight, I was trying to give her some time to clear her mind. You can’t do that either.”

Then he took a piece of stationery from her bosom and tore it in half.

She also has the seal of an unknown family attached to the outside.

Since she did not behave in front of others, she looked around and was relieved that no one was there.

Because I’ve been living quite comfortably these days, I might forget where I or Misty are.

Unless Misty married her crown prince, Misty was a very insignificant human being.

“These days, people must have figured out that I don’t hang out with His Highness the Crown Prince, so marriage talks came from an appropriate count’s family.

Well, I must be very good. The answer is that I just cut it in half.

I love you, but what should I get in return?”

“Is there anything you want?”

At that, Misty put on a confident face and she grinned.

The words I heard were more cute than I thought.

“Give me your lips. Don’t pull back with an excuse that you’re a priest.

Don’t say things like “I’ll let you go if you put your hand away while blocking it with your hand.”

With a few bud kisses, after her kiss, Misty, with her flushed face, pulls her away from me slightly.

It’ll be fine, maybe she’s just playing with fire.

Misty has never failed or failed at anything in her life.

She might just be a passing little fever.

Those feelings she used to feel when she was a girl looking at a handsome human being, and when she was a lady, seeing a rich and handsome human being growing up.

Why don’t you read popular novels on the market today?

Love stories where she thought she was in love with a stupid man, but later found out that she met a more perfect and cool man and lived happily ever after.

“Now, have a good trip! If you can’t come back, call me.

Even if you can’t get married, no. There’s no need to bring this up.

What we have to say is simple. I like you, Eric.”

With that said, Misty ran away as if running away with his galloping steps.

And, I didn’t dare to say the thought I just came up with.

In the end, things go as Belita said.

Actually, these are all the blood of youth.

Around the time when both the beautiful appearance and the young and healthy body wither away, all these fresh feelings that you have now will cool off, and evil will be inflicted on each other, and you will live a life of hating, hating, and cursing each other.

Because there are two or maybe three women.

Hoping to stay by my side at least as much as Belita, she heads to her carriage just in time for Xenia to be waiting.

Perhaps she was a little late, Xenia was waiting for me with her arms crossed and a slightly angry face.

“Quick get in the wagon! Just sit down and we’ll start right away.”

Hearing that, I first got on the carriage.

Then hold Xenia’s hand and help her climb up.

Reminds me of the old days.

At that time, the chin of the carriage was so high that I couldn’t go up or down properly.

It’s so easy to go up now.

The wagon is rolling.

Unlike when I came to the academy, I rode a carriage that looked much more luxurious and soothed my boredom by breaking nasty matches.

Because of Xenia sitting in front of her, she can’t even burn tobacco in this cramped carriage.

“Eric, it’s been less than a year since I came to the academy, but it feels like I’m going back after a really long time.

Is there anything you want to see when you get back? I want to go to the rose garden in front of the mansion.”

Xenia’s face brightened.

It’s been a long time since I heard a story about the mansion I originally lived in, so it was a bonus that the story about it followed.

“I want to talk to the secret base in the corner where I went here and there with you in the past, the village children running around on the top floor of the mansion, and the maids who used to play with me, and I want to see my mother and father again soon. Ehehehe, Just thinking about it makes me excited. What about Eric?”

“I, just…”

“Just?”

Xenia tilted her head when I didn’t answer and kept talking behind her back.

There was no way the answer would come out.

Because there was nothing in my head.

Whether it’s the human being there, the place, the beautiful flowers blooming on the side of the road, the maid who sometimes cared about me and was bullied by her superiors and ended up walking out of the mansion on her own feet, or the stray cat I used to watch from time to time. I mean.

It was a life where every day was suffocating, and if not hell, it could be called purgatory, so it may not be that there is nothing to think about, it may just be that you don’t want to think about it.

“Nothing.”

At those words, Xenia’s complexion turned slightly pale.

Well, when I think about it, Xenia always tries to tie me up to her mansion.

Whether I like it or not.

If I keep going like this, I think the situation will only get worse, so I hit the ball first.

“I’m not leaving because something bad happened, I’m going because something good happened. The atmosphere just got dull for no reason. I’m sorry.”

“Oh no! Maybe I just can’t think of it!”

After that, we couldn’t even make eye contact, let alone talk.

Awkward atmosphere, it’s an atmosphere I’ve always felt.

To be precise, it should be the atmosphere when I came back after being abused by the Duchess.

I haven’t even seen his face yet.

From noble mtl dot com

The existence of an adult who spent childhood together seems to have a great influence, whether positive or negative.

Although the body was young, the mind was an adult, and just looking at that human would break it down like a dog.

But that will be over now.

Thinking objectively, I am no longer in a position to be swayed by that human.

On the contrary, if you grabbed Xenia and shook her around, she would shake it.

When I looked outside, it was getting dark.

The carriage did not stop, but the door opened with a knock, and a servant brought two blankets and two pillows, telling me to sleep on the seat.

I laid out a blanket over the seat, put a pillow on the wall, and closed my eyes slightly while leaning halfway over.

I fell asleep listening to the snoring of Xenia, who had been yelling at her until just now, with the soft moonlight coming through the window.

On the first day, I was able to endure it because it was my first time, but from the second day, I started to suffer a little.

That’s because the space is a space, so there is no choice but to feel stuffy, and when you open a window, the smell of horse sweat and a lot of dirt start to come in.

For almost two days the wagon continued to roll without a break.

Even if it’s a fairly high-end item or if there’s some kind of order, it’s comfortable without being shaken.

There was no case of stopping except to occasionally stop the wagon at the post station and change horses.

Xenia still felt a bit nauseous because of motion sickness, but she didn’t vomit inside, so if she’s lucky, then maybe she’s lucky.

Once upon a time, she saw the boys and girls who were once little children, whom she watched as they ran around, who had grown taller and shyly held hands and sat on a tree stump, talking casually.

What kind of life is that kind of life?

Now, after a little more time, those friends will have children, and those children will play on the mountain again, get to know each other, and live a life where they fall in love.

For those who like adventure, this story will be boring and unbearable, but for those who just want a stable life, there will be no happy life like mine.

I was just curious.

I’d be lying if I didn’t feel the slightest bit of jealousy, but it made me wonder if I had woken up on a farm like that instead of here.

At the same time, I felt ugly.

I don’t know why.

So I didn’t take my eyes off the two trees and the tree stump on the top of the mountain, and continued to stare intently at them.

“Eric, what’s out there that you’re staring at so intently?”

“I just want the scenery to be nice.”

“It’s fortunate that there’s a scenery you’ll like.”

“Favourite, um. Yes.”

A large iron fence was erected around the entrance to the mansion.

And as you pass between them, you begin to see the mansion you never wanted to return to.

I close my eyes once, then open them again.

The mansion stood majestically in front of it as it was.

The carriage stops.

I took a deep breath to try to breathe again, and then I grabbed Xenia’s hand and prepared to get out of the carriage.
