Haunted Duke’s Daughter

“What’s Ray gonna do?

“I’m up to my father, I don’t know… They say you can do whatever you want. The nobles are loud, but that’s what the king’s father says to me, so you can do something about it, I suppose. Well, I still have school for another year. [M] After that, I’ll think about it then…”

Ray looks up to Lilia in a meaningful way. Lilia noticed it but ignored it, Ray sighed and dropped his shoulder.

– You don’t like Ray?

– Neither. Besides, even if you like it, you won’t be able to respond to me.

– Hmm…… Right.

When Lilia finished her sandwich, she slapped the table with her fingers. Ray returns to me as if he is angry, and I will prepare tea immediately. Soon this signal alone will allow Ray to brew it. Not that I have any hesitation about using royalty, assuming, but Ray would.

– It’s too bad.

Ray takes out the study tools and spreads them to the table. Lilia quickly began giving instructions to Ray as she grabbed the material.

I’m done studying with Ray and going back to my room. When I walked into my room, there was Tina in maid clothes.

“Ah, Lilia. Welcome back.”

I closed the door without saying anything.

– Hey, Sakura. I wonder if it would be too different just to be free for two weeks. I want to go home now.

– Easy, Lilia. Where are you going? The place to go is right in front of you. I agree with a lot of things.

Sigh with Sakura and open the door again. Still the same, Tina in maid clothes was waiting for her.

“Tina…… What’s wrong with that?

“Yeah. Doesn’t it look good on you?

“I don’t know…”

Lilia sat down in her usual seat, holding her temples so she could have a headache. Knock on the table and soon Alisa will have tea, as usual……

“Then Dear Tina. Shall I brew it?”

“Yeah.”

Prepare tea while Tina is coached by Alisa. Watching it flashly, Tina eventually put tea in front of Lilia. Looks like he also prepared his own, Tina sat opposite Lilia and put her own tea in front of her.

Tina stares at Lilia. Seeing what it meant, Lilia had no choice but to put her mouth on a cup of tea.

“Well…… It’s not bad.”

“Really? Good”

Tina laughs happily. Lilia sighed small and stared at Tina.

“So? What are you going to do?

“Lilia, I’m scared… Since Master Frigia works at my parents’ house, I don’t think I need to go back as soon as I graduate. So I thought I’d be Lilia’s maid. No?”

“No.”

Immediately, Tina seemed a little frightened. I immediately get back on my mind and ask Lilia why.

“I see you as an equal friend.”

“Yeah. Thanks”

“Yes, sir. If you become my maid, it won’t be reciprocal.”

To Lilia’s words, Tina rounded her eyes. You didn’t think about it, and I sighed.

“I’m not putting you down there. I’ll just accept your feelings.”

“Yeah…… Too bad. Then I have to think of something else… Lilia is going to be a magician.”

Tina roared troubledly as Lilia nodded at Tina’s question to confirm. Apparently he wants to work on Lilia’s side. Tina says, tilting her neck for some reason.

“The doctor told me. Without Lilia’s magic formation, I’d probably be dead.”

Perhaps so.

“Yeah. So Lilia is the benefactor of my life. I want to do something for Lilia at all. Of course I told your father and mother. Both of you, do as I please.”

Apparently, it’s not like a sudden thought, but a conclusion after a solid thought. It should be noted, however, that understanding is not satisfactory.

“I didn’t help you sell your favors.”

“Huh? Oh, yeah. I know that…”

“If you want to do something for me, do what you want. You don’t have to worry about me, so think about yourself. If you want to think hard and still be by my side, I’ll give you a little thought.”

Tina opened her eyes and immediately a smile lowered her brow butt.

“Lilia, sloppy”

“Excuse me. Anyway, there’s still time to graduate, so think about it a little more.”

Tina nodded as she finished saying that with a slightly flashing look. Apparently he convinced me, Lilia secretly stroked her chest down. I’m saying something great, but it’s still the best truth that I don’t want Tina down there.

Tina slowly drank the tea and nodded like she had decided something, okay. Tina says with a smile to Lilia, who thinks she still has something.

“Do you have plans for your next holiday?

It was a completely different story. Sigh small and remind me of my plans for the next holiday. I don’t have any big plans.

– Sakura. The next holiday is the last holiday, but you want to do something?

– Rather no Lilia? You can do what Lilia wants.

Think a little, then tell Tina.

“I don’t have any plans. So?”

“Why don’t we go south? Sure, go shopping.”

Lilia snorted, laughing bitterly at the content as expected. And soon, I say it like I remember it.

“I don’t mind, but is Tina okay? Exams will be coming soon.”

To Lilia’s inquiry, Tina turned away, though she did. I’m trying to put something into words, but I’m moving my mouth around to see if I can explain it well. Watching for a while, Tina opened her mouth, lost.

“I don’t know why, but I feel kind of sorry for…”

“Yes…”

Lilia is going to live without any particular change, but there may have been something to feel. Lilia didn’t say anything more either.
