Chapter 145

TL: Zimming

It was almost impossible for these people to gather at this time of the day, by mere coincidence, unless they were at another time or another day.

I asked them while frowning.

“What? Why are you guys here all of a sudden?”

Hayton Vallua remained coughed awkwardly and remained silent like Adrian. Lionel was the first to open his mouth.

“Because today is the day to give flowers.”

“Flowers? ……ah.”

Only then I nod my head.

‘I see. Today was the day.’

There are days when flowers are presented to someone you appreciate or someone you like.

It meant that they wanted to be more special to the person they give their flowers to in the future.

‘It kind of feels like a bribe…’

Come to think of it, Adrian, Hayton and Lionel all had a bouquet of flowers.

For a moment, I felt an ominous feeling.

“Don’t tell me…….”

The three people’s facial expressions changed as I opened my eyes wide.

Hayton turned away, Lionel blushed, and Adrian looked at me with a dim gaze.

“……I have a favor to ask!”

“…….”

“…….”

“…….”

I sighed out loud and folded my arms.

“I don’t know what it is, but don’t scare me!”

“…….”

“…….”

“…….”

“I won’t treat flowers as bribes. If you want something, you’ll have to pay for it. Your feelings? I can’t see that.”

They nodded and sighed after I said that.

“I was scared because I wondered if you guys like me. I don’t want to be uncomfortable. Any other lady would definitely misunderstand it too.”

When I laughed, Lionel’s expression became sad.

“If I like sister, could I keep seeing you?”

“Of course! Lionel is the only son of the Grand Duke, Adrian is the Prince, and Hayton…I just don’t like you.”

“Why do you only hate me!”

“You hid a bomb in a virtual battle. You tried to kill me pretending it was a mistake, didn’t you?”

“…….”

Hayton turned away from my gaze. He murmured, “It’s because of my father’s name….I don’t want to do it as well.…”

The three were strangely quiet. I got nervous again and took a few steps back.

“Don’t tell me you guys really like me……!”

Yikes! I screamed inwardly in horror as three people said at the same time.

“Are you crazy? Why would I!”

“N, no lady…….”

“I stopped by a store and heard you were here.”

I nodded with a pleased look on my face.

“Yes, thank you. But I won’t take the flowers. There could be rumors. Watch out next time, you stupid little boys. Hahahaha.”

“…….”

“Yes.”

“…….”

After taking care of the situation, I went back to the carriage, waving my hand to them, “Bye!”

***

The four boys, including Seto, looked different as they watched LeBlaine go away.

“Who’s the stupid little boy…….”

Tsk, Hayton clicked his tongue and glanced at Adrian.

“Your Highness, I can’t be mean to you because of your condition, but that doesn’t mean that I won’t retaliate in the future when this happens.”

“I’m better than a guy who needed to rely on others to live.”

“How long do you think I’ll be in this state? Don’t be so sure of the future. Someday I’ll make a leap again.”

Adrian, who was looking until Leblaine was completely gone, turned his head.

Glancing at Lionel and Seto, still sullen, he lowered his voice and whispered.

“I’ll help Leblaine reduce her expenditure.”

“The money she gave me is part of a deal……!”

Hayton didn’t say anything again.

‘But how does he know that?’

There’s no way Leblaine would have told him.

Hayton assumed that the hope mercenary guild, which pays him a living, was a business run behind the scenes by Dubbled.

That clever Leblaine could not have told Dubbled’s secret to the Crown Prince.

Adrian has several nicknames in public.

The poor prince, unprotected kitten, and the prince abandoned by god.

In addition to Yvonne and Duke Marche surveillance Adrian did not even have a proper teacher.

The nobles always belittle Adrian, saying that he couldn’t even read.

“…Your Highness is different from the rumors.”

“…….”

“But you are not wise. What would you do if I went to the imperial palace and revealed your true nature?”

“Do it.”

When Hayton’s face hardened, Adrian gently looked at him.

“It would be nice if someone believed you. That way you won’t be hidden in your dead father’s shadow and be told you are a poor boy who is obsessed with grandiose illusion.”

“……!”

“I pray that you will be safe from Theodore Dubbled’s hands. I don’t know if you could safely go to the imperial palace before that.”

He walked towards him and grabbed his shoulders.

“Please don’t cross the line, Lord. I don’t want to do anything that implicates Leblaine.”

Adrian, who whispered softly, turned his back.

Hayton, who was looking at Adrian’s back with a throbbing shoulder, smiled in vain.

As expected, the silly little child is LeBlaine.

‘Dumb Leblaine. Did you have any idea what kind of a monster you raise?’

At that time, Lionel muttered, who was fiddling with the bouquet of flowers in a melancholy manner.

“Bundle of flowers…did she not accept it because it wasn’t pretty?”

Hayton frowned at Lionel.

“What?”

“As expected she likes pink! I’ll go back and get her a bouquet of pink flowers.…!”

“…….”

Hayton shook his head at Lionel, who was saying stupid things, and left his seat.

A few days later, we are ready to go to the Eston mine. I entered the carriage with Henry and Isaac behind me.

Henry and Isaac looked uneasy even until our departure.

“Kid, do you have to go? It’s enough for us to go alone.”

“Yes, Leblaine. You don’t have to go…….”

I heard that about 20 times yesterday. I get on to the carriage first and looked back at my brothers.

“Does anyone here know Suwon’s form other than me?”

Other than me, who has the memory of my previous life intact, I will bring Suwon knowing what it looks like and what kind of energy it gives off.

“But it’s dangerous. Having a child protected by the spirit means that even a legendary nymph can exist.”

“Leblain, Nymph is not a cute little human being in a fairy tale. It’s more like a monster. It’s fierce, terrible and clever.”

“Good for us!”

I clapped my hands and smiled brightly as Isaac frowned.

“Why?”

“If they are good and lovely creatures, we must win their hearts to get Suwon. But a vicious being understands trading.”

“That… that’s right?”

“And in the worst case scenario, when we have to steal it, how can we attack cute, harmless creatures? It has to look ugly.”

What a relief!

Everyone instantly brightened up.

“You’re a really smart kid~!”

“Right?”

The chairman looked at us ridiculously.

“Who would think that you weren’t Dubbled…….”

Dad and Johann, who came out to see us off, smiled as Henry stroked my head.

My dad put a robe on my shoulder and said, as my brothers sat across from me,

“Don’t forget the mine conditions.”

I’ve been warned several times and remembered the conditions I’ve now memorized.

“What did I say?”

I glanced at the people outside the carriage and mumbled. It was because the conditions were so shameful that I didn’t want to recite them here.

“The condition is…”

But I closed my eyes tightly and shouted loudly.

“One, your fist is faster than your words! If you can’t communicate, just punch them! Because my dad anxiously waits for the lovely Leblaine at home!”

“And?”

“Two, if you think you’re going to lose, run! No need to care if a person dies. First of all, me being safe is the most important thing! Because my dad is waiting for cute Leblaine at home!”

“The last one?”

“Three, pride is useless in the face of death! In case of an emergency, just beg! It’s because my dad waits for pretty Leblaine at home all the time!”

“Good.”

Dad and Johan nodded as Henry and Isaac grinned.

My dad patted me on the head and said.

“You can’t go to the mine for too long. It’s dangerous to enter Marche’s area.”

That’s why my dad couldn’t follow me directly, and we couldn’t use long-distance teleportation.

Me, Henry and Isaac leave under the guise of an outing. Most people would think that my dad was letting me escape because he didn’t want to send me as the prince’s escort.

‘I could never let Marche notice.’

If the Suwon is taken away, Dubbled won’t be able to beat Marche for the next seven years. We had to reach the top as soon as possible.

“I’ll be back.”

Hugging my dad’s neck, he patted me on the back and said,

“……yes.”

The door of the carriage was closed, and we left the mansion. I closed my eyes and squeezed the amethyst in my pocket.

‘Take care of me when I’m in danger.’

It is a dangerous situation, even though some of the best aura users like Zachary and my brothers are with me.

We don’t know what kind of situation we would be in.

‘Good, let’s cheer up.’

I didn’t know until then. What this trip will give me, and what I will give away.
