It may be because they have been through the battlefield, so I am more scared than usual. The hardened knights gulped.
Nos, who was behind my father, rubbed his hand at me with a desperate expression that say, âPlease save us.â
I rolled my eyes and muttered, âUh, that, ····.â
âI slept with the doll that my brothers gave me every day, and it seemed like I was with you guys at the castle.â
âEveryday?â
âAlways?â
The two said and I nodded.
âBecause I miss you all the time!â
Only then did the older brothersâ expressions relaxed a little.
Dad came down from the horse and hugged me.
âDidnât you sleep with the doll I gave you?â
Dad looks a little thin.
In my last life, he did not participate in the war after Kruger, but in the battle of the Allies, he participated at the end of the war and led the victory.
So, I was relieved, but when I saw his face, my heart broke.
I hugged my dadâs neck tightly.
âI hugged it and slept well.â
Dadâs hand patting my hair was very comforting.
That night, the castle was noisy with the party until late at night. Dubbled gave a wide range of drinks and meat for the soldiers.
When I got out in the middle of the party, I saw my cotton pocket, and then asked the chairman who followed me out.
âThe soldiers who came back from winning today almost died of a heart attack.â
âHuh?â
âI heard that you welcomed the loot box more than the brothers.â
âYes, but look at this.â
I took it out of my pocket and showed it to the chairman.
âWhatâs this?â
This is the item that I welcomed more than my family.
I laughed and said,
âItâs better than gold.â
âYou mean this? I think itâs just a normal seedâ¦â
âNo, this will separate the empress from the church, and make us a fortune.â
âWould there be such a seedâ¦?â
âItâs called Luminous. A special seed only found in orgos, the southernmost part of the continent.â
âLuminous?â
âIf you mix it with medicine, itâs effective for arthritis and neuralgia. Itâs also effective for the embarrassing skin disease of the Empress.â
âSkin disease? Does the empress have skin problems?â
I nodded.
Only a few people of the church knows it, but the reason why the Empress was deeply devoted to them is the skin disease.
The empress had a sincere heart and thought that if she devoted herself to God it would cure her skin.
Of course, thatâs not the only reason for her to be close to the church, but skin disease is a big part.
When I explained to the chairman, he shook his head.
âBut it will be difficult to get it into the hands of the Empress Dowager. Drugs that go to the palace go through years of review.â
âThatâs why we let the Empress find it herself.â
âHow can I do that?â
âIf most of the elderly are affected by the medicine, she had no choice but to pay attention.â
I gathered my hands together and looked up at the chairman.
âAnd thereâs an old man right in front of me.â
ââ¦.Pardon?â
He looked at me with an anxious expression.
***
a blooming party was held ahead of spring.
It was all old gentlemen and ladies who filled the party.
Jean Marc, who got off the wagon, looked at the party and held his forehead.
âHow did this happen?â
âBefore the relationship between the church and the empress gets better, we should send the medicine fast. You have to make that much of an effort so that rumors of Luminous can go around fast.â
The billboard is himself.
This Jean Marc is the most famous of the five viscount in the continent, leading the original circle of Dubbled, which has a good influence on the West.
âI canât believe Iâve become a puppet for a 9-year-old kid.â
Jean Marc sighed and went into the party.
As I open the door, I heard exclamations from all over the place.
âOh my god, Viscount Noanokeâ¦â
âHe looks extraordinarily nice today.â
It was worth it.
Before coming to this party, he had to manage his body shape with Leblaineâs medicine.
It was impossible for a man to manage this much in his old days.
Old ladies crept up, covering their mouths with peacock feather fan.
âHow have you been?â
âLong time no see, Lord Noanoke.â
âYou look different today.â
He really is different than usual. At other times, he would have ignored the ladies with an annoyed glance, but Leblaineâs words lingered in the chairmanâs ear.
He forced the corners of his mouth up.
âYes, how have you been?â
The ladies blushed.
Even when they were young, the face that thrilled many young girls did not disappear as they got older.
âOh my, why is she laughing like that?â
âIt reminds me of the old days.â
The ladies and a few gentlemen came up to him.
âOh, you look younger.â
âYour body looks very fit too.â
âThe word fit is a signal. You have to talk about medicine, right there!â
Leblaineâs words came to mind.
âIâm taking a medicine these days.â
The ladyâs eyes were wide open when he said so,
âMedicine?â
âItâs a medicine to become younger.â
âDo you have such medicine?!â
The chairman awkwardly took the medicine chest out of his jacket.
Then, with his right hand supporting the bottom of the medicine bottle and his left hand covering the back, he said the exact words Leblaine told him to say.
âThe medicine of youth. You can get one at the top of Hope right now.â
***
With an ecstatic expression, I hugged the ledger sent by Seria.
âOh, the joy of having money.â
I donât know how many zeros there are already.
With the effect of the billboard, Luminous sold out instantly.
To what extent, not only senior citizens but also middle-aged people line up in front of the place.
According to Seria, there is a long line in front of the store every day.
âHe did a great job on the ad.â
There was nothing like the word youth that made old people excited.
If I had sold it to everyone, I can probably buy a few islands, but I had a doctor on-site and sold luminous only to those who really needed it.
It would be more effective if it was used by a really sick person, so I could get more attention from Empress.
âNow all I have to do is wait for a call.â
I hesitated and hid the ledger well.
âLittle miss, donât you want a meal?â
âYes!â
Todayâs breakfast menu is French toast. It is my favorite menu, so I went down to the dining room while humming.
âGood morning.â
I answered to Henry, put my napkin in my lap, and grabbed a spoon and fork.
The smell of fresh French toast flowed into my nose.
The smell of savory eggs and sweet raspberry jam mingled and seemed to stimulate the stomach.
I cut the toast, folded it tightly and put it in my mouth.
âDelicious,â¦â
As soon as one toast was finished, a new toast was given to me. It was Dadâs.
âDad, arenât you eating?â
âNo.â
I never refused when it came to food.
In the past, I thought that I needed more food because I was a child, but turns out I really like eating.
I enjoyed living as myself in my fourth life.
I saw my family members who ate the toast and checked the newspaper.
âTheyâre having a party in the palace.â
When Henry said so while putting sugar cubes in my tea, Dad nodded.
âBoth the flower festival and the victory banquet.â
Isaac frowned while putting the salad on my plate.
âOh, I canât miss it if itâs a victory banquet.â
Henry replied, stirring the sugar in my tea.
âIf we donât go, others will steal the credit.â
Isaac sprinkled the dressing on the salad he had put on my plate.
âWe fought to die, but why is there a flower festival?â
Henry picked up the teacup, fed it to me, and said,
âIâve been telling you to watch your language in front of Leblaine.â
Isaac also picked up the salad with a fork and pushed it towards me.
âItâs just annoying.â
I couldnât stand the tea and salad on both sides and groaned.
âAre they harassing me because I welcomed the loot more last time?
As I was contemplating, my dad took the tea and salad from the two.
âDonât tease your sister.â
âBut sheâs very cute.â
When I saw Isaac smiling, I became sullen.
âIâve been bullied.â
I stared at them both. They are very naughty brothers to bully their younger sister.
I couldnât just pass by something like this, so I said it very sternly.
âCanât you not do that next time?â
Henry and Isaac, with their heads down, shook their shoulders. The employees turned their heads and trying their best to hold their laughter.
