Chapter 25: She is His Type
Translator:Masakibluei
When I say that I burned the letter in a calm manner, Isabella and Lawrence are extremely shocked. It’s normal for them to react that way. Moreover, burning a letter from the Royal family without reading it is an act of disrespect of the Royal family.
Ellen: “It’s a letter from a person who I met for the first time. At any rate, the content of the letter must be an invitation for a tea or an apology about Agriel matter.”
Isabella: “……Then, Ellen dear, what kind of reply did you give to Albert?”
Ellen: “I told him that I refused because Esteem Father would be angry.”
It was a letter that being sent to me without the knowledge of my Father who is my guardian. Therefore, I understood very well that it was an inappropriate letter. Both Isabella and Lawrence become speechless at my resolute and appropriate manner for the whole ordeal.
Rovel: “Ellen…Why did you burn the letter?”
Ellen: “That’s my little payback for Esteem Father!”
At this point, Father seems to finally realize that I am truly angry at him. Thus, his face becomes distorted.
Ellen: “I won’t talk to Esteem Father until Father talk properly with uncle Albert! “
After I make that declaration, Father falls down on his knee.
Rovel: “I can’t win against my own daughter…”
Lawrence pats Rovel’s shoulder who is depressed that his daughter is mad at him.
Lawrence: “At such a young age, Lady Ellen’s ability is very impressive. Grandpa is impressed.”
Rovel: “………Lawrence you……”
Rovel scowls at Lawrence with scornful eyes.
Lawrence: “Lord Rovel, you understand the intention behind Lady Ellen’s speech, don’t you, my lord?”
Rovel: “……My daughter is too smart. Sometimes she puts me into a dilemma.”
Rovel grumbles with a bitter smile. Because Ellen burned the letter from His Highness, he cannot pursue Albert. After all, the evidence that he had made a contact with Ellen had disappeared by the hand of Ellen. Accordingly, not only Rovel is unable to implore His Highness’s intention in the letter, but he also unable to punish Albert for his betrayal. In short, without a clear evidence, Albert’s treacherous act becomes unclear to settle. He won’t be able to punish Albert anymore.
……Ellen burned the letter to save Albert.
To make the matter even worst, Ellen has indirectly implied her identity as a spirit to the Royal family. When Rovel watched the ordeal from the water mirror, he was holding his head down for the whole time. Even though he had made a lot of precautions and perfected his plans, he never expected that his daughter would be able to see through his plan and made a counterattack.
Rovel: “Aaa. From who do you take after…?
Lawrence: “What are you talking about, my Lord. Lady Ellen is exactly like you, Lord Rovel.”
Rovel makes a strained smile at Lawrence who is laughing ’Ho Ho Ho’ at him.
Rovel: “I’m stumped. I’m truly lost this time…”
Rovel makes a lonely face and think to himself
Ellen definitely strikes His Highness’s fancy.
Lafissel could not hid his surprise when he heard Ellen’s reply from Albert.
Lafissel:”……She burned my letter without reading it?”
Lafissel breaks out in laughter because he finds it too amusing that Rovel’s daughter burned his letter. Moreover, she also simultaneously persuaded Albert to stop his misbehaviours. When Albert said, “This is the last time. I’ve been ordered by the young mistress to stop,” he acted with dignity and in a calm manner.
From this incident, it seems that Rovel’s daughter is able to read her opponent’s intention and sending back unexpected retaliation. It reminds Lafissel of his past exchanges with Rovel.
Lafissel: “A……I want her more and more.”
Although Lafissel wants Rovel and considers him useful, Rovel’s daughter has exceptional ability. Even though she is the same age as Agriel’s daughter, her conduct and abilities are beyond her age. Moreover, based on her action, it can be assumed that her true nature is very kind. All things considered; she might be able to easily getting a clue to end the problem that has been clouding the Royal family for a long time.
It has been said that Rovel’s daughter looks similar to the spirit who was making a contract with Rovel. She appears to be very cute, with a flawless and well featured face.
Since a long time ago, the Royal family has been unable to catch a sigh of spirit appearance, except for the spirit who is already bounded on a contract with a human. 200 years have passed and the Royal family is unable to find out the reason why they cannot make a contract with a spirit. The only thing that they know, whenever a royal family member tries to approach a spirit closer, the spirit will be flustered and runaway. Presently, the neighboring countries look down at Tenmark as a country which is deserted by the spirit.
Although the person himself might not fully aware of it, Rovel’s sole existence is an important support for this country. In addition, his daughter also has spirit blood. While thinking about it, Lafissel remembers his 12- and 9-years old sons.
Lafissel: “Their age differences are quite good.”
The current situation is completely the opposite of what he was aiming for. In spite of the setbacks, Lafissels feels that there is nothing better than this.
Lafissel: “I thought it would be good if I can get Rovel, but…”
Then, Lafissel starts to laugh with satisfaction. Altogether, he has found an interesting existence.
