Haunted Duke’s Daughter

181

Sit on the chair and hold the stuffed animal from Tina. I stroked that comfortable head, and I started thinking, well.

– What exactly shall we do?

– Let’s do what we want to do, who we want to see, what we want to eat, whatever.

– Right… Well, let’s start with…

– First?

Excited, Lilia said with a smile as she asked in a fun way.

– I’m going to bed.

– Why!?

– Oh. I thought I’d take a nap once in a while. We need to keep it when we can afford it.

– No, yeah. If Lilia wants to, fine…… Let’s at least get dressed! You can’t stay in bed! Alliser! Cynthia! Your husband’s making a fool of himself.

Listening to Sakura’s voice, Lilia lay still in bed.

Naturally, my mother would be frightened, and Alisa would be angry, needless to say that she regretted it when she woke up.

“I’m sorry, fix your mood.”

“I’m not angry.”

“You’ll be angry…”

night. Lilia sighed as she headed to the dining room. Ever since Alisa pissed me off for falling asleep in bed with her uniform, she looks grumpy somewhere.

“Alisa has been worried about me for a long time, but she hasn’t come to see me, and she’s been forced to prioritize her sleep.”

That’s what Cynthia tells me, walking a little behind Alisa. Naturally, to be heard by Alisa too, Alisa had turned her face bright red, and Cynthia, she was screaming.

“I’m sorry, Alisa. And Cynthia. You made me worry. And yet I don’t have to go see him.”

“Oh, no…… That’s not what I meant…”

Cynthia turns her eyes round, as Alisa leans shy and didn’t think she’d be shaken to herself. Lilia said with a smile to both of them.

“I’m going to take my time here for a while. You’ll come with me, won’t you?

After a moment of flashes, of course, they smiled and nodded. Lilia nods too and starts walking again to the dining room.

“Nice to see you both in the future”

That was a whine in a small voice, but we both listened well and yes, replied at the same time.

Someone hugged me as I walked into the dining room with both of them. I was a little surprised, but within my expectations. Lilia sighed small and pulled Theo with one hand.

“Welcome back, sister!

Theo laughs uncontrollably, and Lilia nods and responds.

“Yeah. I’m home, Theo. You look good.”

“Yes!”

Listening to Theo’s energetic voice makes Lilia feel better, too. I looked around the room as it was and immediately found my brother who was already in his seat. My brother lifted the edge of his mouth slightly when he realized he was being seen.

“You look good. Worried and lost. No, I’m not worried.”

That’s what I say and laugh cold. It must have been to the attitude of the other nobles that my brother was angry when he was in the royal castle. It’s what I knew, so I’m sorry, I bowed my head. Lilia leaned her neck small as soon as she gave her brother a wolfed look.

“Your brother has always been worried about your sister. That’s why you can’t eat rice.”

“Theo! Don’t say anything extra!

I’m sorry, Theo said with a laugh, and my brother pounded his tongue.

– Huh? Really? Your brother was worried about me? It won’t be possible.

– No, no. Your brother thinks a lot about Lilia. Thank you, let me tell you something.

It can’t be easy to believe even if Sakura says so. Lilia looked surprised, but immediately turned that look off and smiled.

“Thank you, brother”

When Lilia said so, her brother got stuck in words and turned to her.

– What’s that?

– I think you’re just shy.

– Yeah…… Let’s just say that.

I don’t even need to break up with my brother now. Then you can interpret it as convenient. Lilia sat down in her seat, concluding so.

“Kuku…… Well, it’s about time.”

My father, who was already in his seat, says, Lilia nods. Hands together, prayed and began eating dinner.

After dinner. As I took a breath of tea after dinner, I noticed my mother looking at this one. Instead of staring at it, I heard something, and I think I’m staring at this look. Uncomfortable with that unusual attitude, Lilia told her mother.

“Mother. What is it?

You didn’t think they were noticing you were watching, my mother peeling her eyes a little and making her gaze wander. I was getting worried about what was really going on, but soon my father said with a laugh.

“Asha. You just have to ask. Don’t hesitate to ask my daughter what to do.”

“But…… Yeah, right. Lilia. I need to ask you something, okay?

There are only a few things my mother, the Magic Master, would like to hear. Lilia turned to her mother as she corrected her posture.

“Here, you see anything?

My mother points around my shoulder. Normally, I’d say there’s nothing. But Lilia has seen it. A dwarf in plain clothes.

“A dwarf, right? Is it a spirit?

When Lilia heard that, her mother glanced at her surprise and sighed slowly.

“You’re really seeing… Since when?

“It’s…”

Honestly, it’s this morning. But if you say that, there will be a contradiction in what Sakura did with Lilia’s body. When should I answer?

– I think a year ago would be fine.

Listening to Sakura’s voice, Lilia answered immediately. A year ago, he said.

“A year ago… When that happens, is it possible that the trigger was with His Highness?

Is it because you care about Lilia that you don’t clearly say it’s a divorce? Lilia kept an eye on her mother, not pinching her mouth.

“Asha. You’re going to see those who didn’t see the Spirit, what’s really going on?

“There have been several precedents in the past. The report at the time only states that something big happened to each of them. I don’t know what that is anymore, but it must be something big that shakes my mind.”

My mother looked at Lilia, and Lilia slipped her gaze softly. I can’t answer Lilia if she asks me if I’m right. Maybe Sakura knows something.

– I’m sorry. I don’t.

– What?

– I can see Lilia now because I’m the cause.

I frown suspiciously. But no matter how much you think about it, you can’t tell Lilia why.

“Lilia. What’s up?

To my brother’s voice, he returned to me all the time. When I smile to tell him it’s nothing, my brother stares at Lilia suspiciously. I immediately returned my gaze to my father and said:

“Father. Lilia seems tired”

“Right. You’ve made it impossible, Lilia. Go back to your room first.”

I’m not really that tired, but I followed my honesty and went back to my room.
