Chapter 255
TL: Zimmings
I looked at Adrian in embarrassment. He was so nice that he didn’t reveal it until now.
‘Wait.The other students…!’
I quickly looked at them in case they heard Adrian calling me Leblaine.
The students were still arguing about the cards, as if they had not heard anything.
“Because you’re embarrassed… you cheat to win over a child?”
“She’s not just a kid! She knows the poker rules. She’s so talented!”
“Anyway, I’m really embarrassed.”
How could they didn’t hear us when Adrian said it right in front of them? While I was thinking, Amand slightly hit my nose. The sound of the water was like Amand’s laughter.
‘Did it block Adrian’s voice with the barrier?’
Amand was spinning around in front of my nose as if it said yes, so I smiled.
Then, Hayton opened his mouth.
“Why don’t you get out now after that?”
The male student’s expression turned red at his words. The girl shouted, “Yes, that’s right!”, but Hayton glanced at her and continued.
“You too.”
“Me-me too?”
“Get out of here.”
“……Yes.”
The girl bowed her head to Adrian, and the boy followed her from behind. The male student passed by Hayton and flicked his tongue.
“What’s with that overbearing attitude?”
“Just because you’re a young master…”
“Why is he a young master? His family collapsed, and his father was executed after a trial. You still think you’re the strongest? I’m sick and tired of your attitude.”
“Stop it…….”
The students left and I glanced at Hayton. He merely stared at me gently.
“So?”
“Uh? (Huh?)”
“I’m asking what happened to your body…Leblaine.”
I looked at Adrian in surprise, and Adrian replied in a quiet voice.
“Hayton Vallua could see a person’s mana without direct contact. It’s why he was taken by Honghae’s family.”
‘Hayton has that much power?’
He wasn’t that good in my second life.
“It’s because I’ve worked hard desperately.”
He said with an indifferent look. I could see how hard he tried after his father was executed.
“Thwere was a pwoblem when subjugating mwonstew- (There was a problem when subjugating monsters-)”
“If you’re going to lie, why don’t you put your heart into it? If you had a problem, other students would too.”
“…….”
“If you told me that it was because of summoning a devil, not the monsters, I would have believed it.”
“It’s nwot a devil, it’s an angwel.” (It’s not a devil, it’s an angel)”
“I’m the one who witnessed the devil my father called out. Do you think you can fool me? The pillar of light I saw that day, it was the pillar I saw in the devil summoning ceremony.”
I folded my arms.
“That’s what hwappened. You can repowt it! I’m telling you this, twetening in this situation doesn’t work. (That’s what happened. You can report it! I’m telling you this, threatening in this situation doesn’t work.)”
“What kind of person do you think I am?”
“… You won’t?”
“I told you already. I like you.”
Hayton, who said so, was looking at Adrian. They ended up glaring at each other.
“I told you to give up.”
Adrian’s words surprised me. Did he say that? When?
“Your Highness doesn’t deserve to be by her side. At least I won’t put her in danger.”
Hayton stared at Adrian and continued.
“Did Dubblede want your status and power as a condition for her partner? No, there is only one thing they want. She couldn’t be in danger. In addition, it would be best if she could also live with him for the rest of her life. Your Highness, can you do that?
“If you’re going to get the duke’s heart, why do you have to marry Leblaine? Why don’t you get married to the duke instead?”
“I understand that you’re not confident.”
“I don’t care about fighting with a dog who had lost the fight.”
“What awe you guys doing?”…?”
I looked at the two alternately with cold eyes. When I scolded them, they stopped talking, but their gaze seemed to tear each other to death. Hayton got up from the sofa and reached out to me.
“Come with me.”
Adrian held my hand.
“I’m here.”
“Let’s go, Leblaine.”
“Leblaine”
Both sides pulled me. I was getting dragged from one side to the other, then I couldn’t handle it anymore.
“Stwop!! (Stop!!)”
The two flinched as I put my hand on my waist and huffed.
“I’ll cwose my partner myself! If ywo guys keep doing that……!”
Suddenly, someone kicked in the door.
“Little sister, you…”
I pointed at the person who came in and shouted.
“Ywo guys kept gwetting- Huh?”
Looking at the person who came in, I opened my eyes wide.
‘Brother Johann?’
Johann dropped the book he was holding, as Henry and Isaac, who ran after him, frowned.
Johann covered his mouth with one hand, and Isaac asked,
“Big brother, what are you doing here?”
“… Who’s the best at making tuxedos these days?”
Hearing Johann saying nonsense, the room was engulfed in silence.
***
After sending Hayton back, only those who knew I could call out the devil remained in the room. It was Adrian and my three older brothers.
“Small.”
“…….”
“You’re really small.”
“…….”
“Were you always this small?”
“…… Cwan you let my hands go and jwut twalk? (Can you let my hands go and just talk?)”
Johann was still expressionless, but he kept holding my chubby hands tightly.
“… Cute.”
“Huh?”
“Nothing. Did you always talk like this when you were young?”
“…….”
Johann seemed out of his mind today.
“Get out of my way. I’m going to cut her nails now.”
“I’m first.”
As Isaac and Henry began to argue, Johann grabbed my body and lifted me up.
“Don’t bother her.”
‘Well, he’s in his right mind now.’
That’s what I thought, but Johann said while looking at Adrian,
“Do you have nail clippers?”
…… He was still out of his mind.
I got out of Johann’s hand and sat on the sofa.
“So why are you here?”
“Because they said you were younger. I came to pick you up.”
“Bwother and dad awe busy though.”
“Bwother…”
“Huh?”
“Nothing.”
It seems like my words couldn’t enter his ears, so I grabbed Johann’s cheek with both hands and frowned.
“Go back. Dad is busy, so how cwould you come hewe?”
“It’s okay.”
“Twis is Odis. I would be safe.”
I let out a deep sigh and sat down on the chair and crossed my arms.
“I hwave to go back to my owiginal age. To do that, I have to stawy here. (I have to go back to my original age. To do that, I have to stay here.)”
“You can’t go back?”
“Wouldn’t it be pwossible to find what made me a cwild? (Wouldn’t it be possible to find what made me a child?)”
“I heard it from Henry. It happened after the passages overlapped. Is one of them in your hand now?
“No, twat’s not it…”
I spoke with a sullen face.
“Dwisappeared…”
Then Isaac shouted,
“What!?”
“No… I feel swome weird vibwation in Mina’s passage.”
If I couldn’t have Mina’s passage, my amethyst must be on my hand. Because it was like a trump card that I had hidden.
‘It’s a passage with a different force than Boone and Pur. I have to have it no matter what.’
Hearing my words, everyone exchanged glances. Henry told Adrian.
“Please search the school. It would be better for Your Highness, who is acting as the president, to step up rather than us.”
Adrian nodded, and I looked at Johann.
“Bwoter will go? (Brother will go?)”
“I was allowed to stay here before the vacation.”
“How?
“I also graduated from Odis.”
So there’s a way for graduates to stay in school… I couldn’t think why and looked at him, puzzled.
***
“The meeting with a senior this time. It’s him?”
“Yes, Count Dubblede!”
“Ah, Johann!”
While hugging a bunch of documents and walking around, I shook my head when I heard the cheers of the girls.
‘I’m so busy that I can’t even investigate anything, and he’s so busy counseling students.’
Even so, that’s the only way Johann could remain at the school.
I sighed, and the documents I was holding slipped.
I screamed and quickly grabbed it.
This was an errand for the administration.
I’m Juliet’s assistant, but since I’m employed by the school, I have to run some errands.
“Hello, child.”
“Hewo!”
“You’re strong today as well.”‘
It’s been three days since I started working at this school.
Students thought I was quite cute, so they were friendly with me.
When I entered the second dormitory where Mina was because of my errand, I heard the dormitory head communicating with someone in a serious voice.
“Yes, Miss Mina has no signs of waking up yet. Oh, but something bothers me…… Yes, something was suddenly in Mina’s hand last night. It’s like a jewel.”
‘Jewel? Maybe a passage?’
I should check before others take them.
‘But I can’t go into Mina’s room. What should I do….’
While agonizing, I quickly caught the student in the dormitory and asked.
“Whewe is Count Dubbwede?”
“What?”
“Cwount, Count!”
I mean Johann!
