19 – Grand Duchess’ Birthday Party

Apart from my restless mind, we were taken to our respective mansions and almost confined to our rooms.

No matter how allowed outings were, it was an unavoidable result since both big things happened during the two outings.

Besides, Illencia’s physical condition was not normal, and I also had been exposed to the cold wind in thin clothes for a long time, so I couldn’t say that her body was normal.

In Berman’s case, it is said that he escaped harm with Illencia’s strong insistence.

Anyway, what was surprising was that Berman, who had made mistakes twice, was able to continue to be Illencia’s escort.

According to what I heard a long time ago, it was the second time Illencia was born and used it in groups.

Well, at any rate, all he said was ‘I don’t want my escort unless it’s Berman.’

Anyway, Illencia’s second opinion, saying she didn’t express her opinion and didn’t want anything, was unexpectedly strong, and it is said that Berman was able to save his life thanks to Anna’s strong support.

What was the first thing Elencia used to swarm?

That I don’t know. Even if I ask, they don’t give me an answer.

It was a secret that every time I asked that, Berman looked at Illencia happily with his fatherly smile from behind.

Anyway, Balenciaga, which had only thought it would be peaceful after the turmoil, was once again stormed.

Ah, these are unchangingly peaceful days.

Me and Elencia love gardens so much that we spent a long time there, so a small table and chairs were prepared in the garden of the mansion.

Moreover, as my mother took care of the garden, the garden at our mansion became incredibly beautiful.

All sorts of flowers and well-maintained trees were planted in the garden, which was larger than the yard of the rich man’s house in his previous life, and he hired several more gardeners to thoroughly manage it.

… Of course, we were always in the most neglected garden, thinking of going out.

Knowing that fact, my mother and the gardeners would probably fall over by the back of their necks, so I tried my best to keep it a secret.

“Turn it off….”

I sat down with my back on the back of the chair, turning over.

About two months after that incident.

Until winter was already approaching, Illencia had never visited the baron’s house.

Just as there is a saying that you don’t know where you are, but you know where you are, I felt empty for some reason because Illencia, who had been visiting me all the time, didn’t come.

I once asked her mother about her current status in Illencia, and she said, ‘I’ll find out soon, so just be patient.’

…… It’s bland.

Actually, after that incident, I didn’t put my mind at ease. Of course, the unreasonable confession Illencia made to me is still lingering in my mind.

That too, very deeply and clearly.

The memory of her in her mind came to mind as clearly as if it had happened just yesterday, and the touch of her lips touching her cheek was as vivid as if it had happened just before.

So, how could he be at ease as if nothing had happened?

I was just trying to empty her mind.

Of course, that didn’t last even for an hour, let alone a day and a half.

If Illencia had expected everything and acted up to this point, wouldn’t that be Illencia, but her nine-tailed fox?

‘No, Illencia with nine tails might be the right expression….’

Ha ha.

I sighed deeply because I never dreamed that my head would be so complicated because of a girl who was only 11 years old.

I raised it… You raised me well….

I stared blankly at the sky, not lamenting but lamenting, counting the floating clouds one by one and lost myself in thought.

It was a peaceful life that did not require physical training or magic training.

Knowledge? As long as I absorbed the knowledge of this world, there wouldn’t be much of a problem for me. In the first place, basic things were no different from previous lives or here.

To put it bluntly, even if I wasn’t the son of a baron, I would have lived well and lived well, even if I had gone somewhere and worked as an accountant.

Train your body? I don’t think it matters that much. It’s not like I’m going to learn swords or martial arts, and I don’t think it’s very necessary.

Magic training? Isn’t it inevitable that there is no talent in the first place? Even if he had interest in magic, he couldn’t use it, so it was meaningless.

No, in the first place, I was already fed up with living in a hurry and brutality.

I thought that my previous life was enough to live like that, and even if it wasn’t a gold spoon, I was born with a silver spoon, so I have the heart to live comfortably.

I was tired of hard work even in my previous life.

I got tired of living today like crazy without any time to catch my breath.

So, I wanted to live a little more comfortably.

…… Somehow I didn’t think it would be like that.

I was immersed in my thoughts for a while, and when I came to my senses, some time had passed before I knew it.

“… ?”

For some reason, feeling the commotion around me, I straightened my posture and looked around.

It was really upsetting.

Somehow, I feel like this has happened before….

Just like the day the Grand Duchess first visited our house… ?

“Did Illencia come?”

I can’t do that.

At first, the staff members of my family, who used to be nervous and trembled, are now accustomed to Illencia’s coming, so they don’t behave like this.

But why all of a sudden such a fuss?

As long as there is no fuss even in the grand duke’s family, isn’t it that he developed a great resistance to most things?

With some unknown curiosity and anxiety, I got up from my seat.

“Hmm….”

Realizing through my experience that I have to act more calmly in times like this, I calmly moved on.

The servants seemed to be busy preparing for something. Also, the mother and butler in the house were preparing something urgently.

Entering the mansion, I was alone in a peaceful mood, scratching the back of my head and staring blankly around.

What is everyone in such a hurry for?

I was standing alone with those thoughts in mind, but when my mother found me like that, her entire face was painted.

Hmm, I’m worried about something.

“Cain!”

“Yes, Mom.”

If the timing when my mother welcomes me like that is questionable, I feel uneasy for some reason.

Maybe he’s trying to pass another trouble on me.

Contrary to my expectations, however, in front of my mother, I had no choice but to move to another place.

“Measure the young master!”

“Um… How about these clothes?”

“No matter how weak we are, wouldn’t it be better to preserve the family’s characteristics?”

“I will refer to it.”

Dragged into the dressing room, I surrendered to the hands of the maids measuring my clothes with a question mark floating above my head.

In front of me measuring my clothes, my mother and a man were talking about something with serious expressions on their faces.

‘… What is this situation?’

What I don’t understand about this situation is that everyone in this mansion is moving like a knife, as if I’m the only one.

Take measurements of clothes.

It feels as if I have a situation where I need a new conquest or something.

I rolled my head here and there, but I couldn’t come up with a situation that would make such a case.

‘… What happened around this time of year?’

As I carefully searched for my memories, I was led somewhere again and moved my body.

This time it was a different place.

As if trying to make shoes that fit me, I measured the circumference and measurements of my feet, and I was examining each and every accessory on my body.

Of course, my mother was also with me during the process.

My mother was always looking at me with sharp eyes she had never seen in her life and was giving instructions to the servants.

It was the first time I had seen such a sharp and charismatic figure, so I was stunned.

In the end, it wasn’t until around dinner that I ended up being dragged around.

As I was sprawled out on a chair at the table with my entire body drained of exhaustion, my mother with a refreshing face came into the restaurant and sat down.

“Whoops, everything is ready.”

“…… What the hell are you preparing for?”

Is it true that shopping makes women younger?

Looking at her mother’s shiny face, she asked weakly, and the mother tilted her head and opened her mouth with a puzzled face.

“Huh? Didn’t you know Cain?”

“… What?”

My mother looked really puzzled.

I thought you would remember? I was intrigued by the expression on my face.

Then, my mother smiled at me and said,

“Isn’t it Ilensia’s birthday soon?”

“… Ah.”

“I thought you would remember Cain, right?”

What is it about you who remembers anything related to Elencia?

Listening to my mother’s words, I unknowingly burst into exclamation.

Come to think of it, Elencia’s birthday was in winter, right?

An event I had forgotten for a while came to mind.
