Haunted Duke’s Daughter

107

If Aldis’ maids are inside the Count Lester’s mansion, they won’t be able to stand out either. Whatever the paperwork is, at least there shouldn’t be human damage like Broso. Neither will they think to turn the Duke of Ardis house against the enemy.

Lilia frowned as she walked into her room thinking about how far to tell Tina.

Tina had a sunken look somewhere as she stared at the big stuffed animal.

“What’s the matter with you?”

When Lilia spoke, she gave a slightly surprised look at Lilia when she finally noticed that she had come in there. Tina keeps her eyebrow butt down, says.

“After all, Keith and I can’t make up anymore?

Hearing that, Lilia finally remembered. I heard about Broso’s situation to find out what caused Keith’s noble hatred from there. I do know the cause, but there remains no solution. As long as Tina is a Baron but noble, Keith won’t be walking by.

I’m not saying give up, but I can’t do anything.

“Yeah…… I know. I’m sorry.”

Tina left the room with her shoulder dropped. Lilia dropped it off until the door closed.

The door closes and Lilia exhales slowly. I was just a little irritated by how Tina was doing. If you have something to say, you can say it. I don’t understand what you care about.

And so is Keith. I do have some sympathy for Broso’s condition, but why does Keith, who is not a party, keep getting angry when he says he doesn’t resent him? Not at all, I don’t understand Lilia. First, every civilian is against nobility….

– Lilia.

Lilia returned it to me. Sigh like tired and sit on the chair. I took a slow, deep breath to calm my feelings and looked up to heaven.

– Are you okay?

– Yeah. It’s okay.

Anyway, I get frustrated when I think about Keith. Lilia doesn’t even know why. Lilia sighed loudly, remembering her disgust for no reason.

The next day. Tina, who, as usual, visited Lilia’s room to study, smiled differently after hitting it yesterday. I was anxious yesterday because I looked contemplated until I went to bed, but I felt a little relieved.

“Lilia. I’m sorry about yesterday. I’m a little worried.”

Tina says as she widens her study tools. Lilia shook her head and replied.

“You don’t have to worry about it. Because I know it’s not something I’ll get an answer to right away either. Just don’t hesitate to tell me if there’s anything I can do.”

“Yeah. Thanks, Lilia”

Tina smiled happily and Lilia was just a little embarrassed and distracted.

Continue your studies at the same table. Sometimes it’s the usual flow of asking where Tina doesn’t get it and Lilia teaches it. Lilia has opened the same material, but she hasn’t actually seen it. Mostly Sakura talked, and Lilia was listening to it.

But only today, Sakura didn’t say anything. Even though I said I would study, today in review, I’ve only gotten one word of. Even though it’s usually obnoxious, suddenly it bothers me when it gets quiet.

– Didn’t you think of anything more rude?

– You react to this kind of thing.

– Ugh… Sorry……

Sakura apologized and silenced again when she said it in a voice that included insurance. It would be a lie to say that it doesn’t bother me, but there will be times when Sakura wants to think alone. If it’s necessary for Lilia, she’ll tell me later. Yes, convinced herself, Lilia dropped her eyes on the material.

It is before noon and the two of them who have finished their studies get dressed and ready to go out, as usual. Lilia, getting ready just to get dressed, always waited in Tina’s room looking at the doll.

I opened my mouth to say so, looking at the doll the same way today.

“Didn’t Tina know about Count Lester’s house?

Tina laughed bitterly as she seemed sorry when she heard that.

“I know your father would know, but I don’t really… Sometimes I go to say hi, because that’s all my contacts are. I never met Mr. Frigia.”

“Really?

“Yeah. This is the first time I’ve seen you at school.”

Uh, and Lilia opened her mouth and Tina tilted her neck at the look of it.

“What’s going on?

“The… Nothing.”

– Sakura. Is Frigia Lester the same school?

– That’s right. It’s the same school, not the same class. Well, a lot of Lilia’s classes are thick for better or worse. I can’t help but remember.

– What do you mean?

– Haha. Well, anyway, Frigia Lester is also a shadowy person. Try to remember. Someone around Chris.

I mean, are you around Chris? Reminds me of my memories at school, even though I’m just a little surprised. Fortunately, I remembered the names of all the classes once, so I could remember them right away.

Indeed, one of Chris’s surroundings is Frigia Lester. However, I have a completely different impression from yesterday’s story. Yesterday’s story pictured my arrogant and impudent character.

– Sounds like old Lilia.

– Shut up.

The impression of Frigia in the school comes first. Definitely the most important student in Lilia’s class. I suspect more about yesterday’s story.

– I guess that’s why I don’t trust Mr. Broso’s story extra.

– I guess.

Even Lilia suspects Broso. If my brother hadn’t brokered it, he definitely wouldn’t have trusted me. Maybe I can ask Chris somehow after I get back to school.

“Lilia. Thank you for waiting”

“Yeah…… Shall we go?”

Lilia headed to the South Side with Tina, who was ready, making just a few plans after returning to school.

Explore the South Side as usual while buying and eating along the way. Looking back, Broso was still arriving today, keeping a certain distance.

– Tae-fu is delicious today.

– You don’t get tired of it…

– You’re tired of Dafu, or when I’m not me anymore.

– How heavy is Dafu?

I laugh bitterly as I walk. Looking forward, Tina was tilting her neck.

“Lilia. What’s wrong?

It’s nothing.

Answering that, Tina looked forward, wondering,

“Ah.”

“Hot.”

Keith and I met eyes.

“How can we just see each other when it’s a big town… Could it be you, Tina’s stalker?

“Ha!? You’re kidding! Who’s this guy!

“I can’t believe this one… We used to play together.”

“So that was because I didn’t know you were noble!

Keith screams as he stares at Tina. Lilia sighed small, turning her back on both of them.

“Tina. Can you call me when you’re done?

“Oh, yeah. I’m sorry.”

“What, you’re running away!

Lilia sighed openly at Keith’s palpable provocation. Look cold at Keith and say.

“First of all, realize you haven’t been dealt with.”

Boy, I start walking shaking my head. Keith said nothing more and yelled at Tina.

“I knew you were noble! All the time, these guys are just the ones who can’t even listen!

“I don’t think Keith wants me to tell you, do you?

“Ugh! You’d be the same! If you guys look at your attitude, you’ll know better, you’re living without any difficulty anyway! That’s why you can’t listen to people!

That’s what I hear, and Lilia’s eyes sit slightly.

– Lilia, calm down. Let’s get out of here.

– Yes… Right. Let’s do that.

Lilia nods at Sakura’s words. That’s how I tried to walk to the point where I couldn’t hear my voice.

“Try harder, and you’ll understand our struggles earlier in the needle. Well, I don’t think you’re gonna try!

Lilia’s cheek caught on. My leg stops and only my eyes turn to Keith. Neither of us has noticed any changes in Lilia’s condition, etc.

Why not? Not that Lilia is patient, but there can be no such thing as exposing her anger to this extent. I’ve heard worse pussies. But somehow I was more angry with Keith’s words than ever before. I feel blood coming up my head, even though it’s not about me.

What does Keith know? Tina worked hard at school all the time. It would not be a major effort, such as suppressing the senior aristocrats educated from an early age and taking the upper hand in exams. Sure, it’s a different direction from the Keiths, but it’s not like Tina’s neglecting to make an effort.

“I don’t know how you know nobles! You’re flattered by the nobles anyway! Oh, maybe you’re buying your grades out of the nobles, too? You look great!

Who, and to whom, is selling the charm? Tina has never sold her flair before. Tina’s environment at the school was never a good one, but still I’ve never heard of anything like selling a charm to a noble opponent.

– Lilia.

Sakura’s voice could be heard, but Lilia overheard it. While you are aware that there is blood on your head, you do not try to contain it. I was comfortably left to the urge of anger I hadn’t felt in a long time.

In the first place. What does he mean in the first place? At the moment of the civilian……

– Lilia!

What are you saying to your aristocratic opponents when it comes to civilian affairs? You should be able to speak for yourself for a moment. I don’t even understand that, what are you talking about?

If you notice, Lilia stood directly behind Keith. He was supposed to be in a face-to-face position, but apparently he only went a little farther. Well, it doesn’t matter.

If you look forward, Tina was staring at Lilia with her eyes open. The face also looks blue somewhere. Again, that doesn’t matter.

“Mostly you always…!

Slap Keith on the shoulder trying to say something more. Shut up, and beat me again, remembering even more angry that I was paid my hand. Now it was time for Keith to look back at Lilia.

“Uuch, eh…?

Keith’s voice decreases to butt blush. Keith’s eyes looking at Lilia that way switched from anger to fear.

“Oh, come on, I’m deaf.”

Slowly ‘smiling’, Keith took a step later with a frightened look. But you gave it back to me right away, and you stared at Lilia.

“What, are you even complaining?

“Yeah. You do. You’re the one who doesn’t know anything, but I hope you don’t insist on talking nonsense.”

“What? You’re the one who won’t know anything!

Lilia laughs with her nose and continues without breaking her smile.

“I don’t care about that either. Ear damage. That’s enough. Shut your mouth.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about! What do you look great…!

Lilia’s eyes narrow slightly. That’s all, Keith breathed to see if he felt anything.

– Lilia. Please, just calm down…

Sakura voice. While recognizing that, Lilia continues.

“First of all, you shouldn’t. Who are you talking to?

“Is…? To whom, of some baron house…”

“Liliane Ardis”

“What?”

“Liliane Ardis. That’s my name. Would it be easier to understand if I said the daughter of the Duke of Aldis?

Keith’s eyes opened wide. Lilia says as she looks at the look of it funny.

“Again, I ask you, against whom are you talking like that?

Keith was stuck in words and just let his mouth open and close when he could not say anything. But soon, power returned to his eyes. I glanced at Lilia again and screamed.

“Ugh! The Duke’s house! That’s none of my business!

“Heh…”

Lilia’s mouth angle slowly lifts. That was a very, very pleasant smile.

And Lilia opens her mouth.

– No! Lilia, don’t say that!

“But the civility of the Duke’s house is what you used to say.”

The moment I said that, Keith’s expression froze and Tina opened her eyes in amazement. Never mind, Lilia goes on.

“Keith, it’s easy to find out what kind of life you and your family have, what kind of work you’re doing, that kind of stuff. You know what I’m talking about?

To Lilia’s words, Keith nodded as he grew pale.

“Keith, you should think a little bit about what you’re saying and doing. Otherwise…”

I’ll crush it.

Lilia smiles and says so. Keith hasn’t responded. I’m just opening my eyes and it’s completely solidified. Staring at Keith with a cold eye, he leaked a short scream and rushed away.

Lilia looks at Tina as she snorts in boredom.

Tina stared at this one with a crying face somewhere.

“Hey, Lilia.”

Tina’s voice. Is it my fault that I feel cold somewhere?

“Is that Lilia’s, is that for real?

Lilia frowns in surprise. I wonder what you’re asking for. That’s all Tina guessed, sadly lay her eyes down, and, oh, shrugged.

“I’m sorry, Lilia. I’ll be right back.”

That’s what I’m saying, I’m leaving Lilia and going back. For some reason, I felt a distance from Tina.

– Lilia.

– What is it?

– That’s all I wanted you to say.

With that said, I also feel like I was screaming something. There was blood on my head and I hadn’t heard.

– Remember well. What did I say?

– I’m not sure.

– You said the civilian flair told the Duke’s house.

– I told you. Am I wrong?

When I asked him that, Sakura shut up about whether he was stuck in words or not. He snorted boringly and Lilia also starts walking back to the inn.

– It’s an aristocratic society, so it’s not the wrong idea. Admit it. But, Lilia.

What do you want to say? I want you to be clear. Just a little irritated,

– Lower nobles are hardly any different than civilians. I wonder what Tina thinks when she hears that.

Perfectly, I stopped my leg.

– What…?

– I think you know Tina’s right about that, too. But I think Tina’s always thought Lilia was treating me equally. Anyway, in the beginning, if you’re watching what’s going on now, yeah.

That’s the same for Lilia. Tina thinks she’s an equal friend. Whatever the difference in pattern, it has nothing to do with it.

– But you said it. Civilian. If you think of that identity, you can say the same thing even in the Baron’s house.

Having heard that much, Lilia finally understood what Sakura was trying to say. I understand.

– Tina’s not mad. I just don’t think I know how to deal with it anymore. Because if Lilia really thinks that all the time, you can’t go out with her the same way.

– No… I didn’t mean to…

– You don’t have to mean that to Lilia, but I can only assume that’s what you’re asking.

That’s why I stopped it.

That’s what Sakura said, and then she shut up. Lilia was standing on the spot with her eyes open.
