Then I suddenly remembered my mom.
âNo, Mom canât do that.â
Heâs handsome, but he never used it to bribe others, nor was it ever allowed. The Grand Duke was sometimes a cruel and crazy man. Having come to that conclusion, I nodded deeply.
âYour expression keeps changing every second.â
âHuh?â
âIt was good, then it was bad. It surprised me. I can see those emotions constantly passing by in that small face.â
ââ¦No, itâs not.â I was expressionless!
He stared at him with his mouth closed tightly. But he was quite relaxed. It was as if it didnât matter what I said. Like that, the Grand Duke looked at me for a long time and saw me again.
Meanwhile, as if he had something to say, he slowly opened his mouth.
âAnyway, itâs not when you like it unconditionally. There are some things I havenât published yet because of your name, but there are other reasons why I havenât.â
âAny other reason?â
âOkay.â
âItâs hard. Making documents didnât stop it.â
With disappointment, he hurriedly hardened his face, which had been filled with anticipation until just now.
âIn a way, itâs big, and in a way, itâs trivial. There are a lot of people who will definitely talk about why to let you go.â
He nodded firmly as he spoke.
Nothing was wrong with what he said. In fact, when I thought about it, it was natural for the vassals to look at me unkindly. They didnât know who I was. It was as if I fell from the sky.
I told the Grand Duke that I was a child of the previous emperor and had strong power, but the vassals do not know that.
Even if he knew that, you would think there was no reason to put me here.
His forehead hardened automatically.
âThatâs true. I think so, too.â
What should I do now? Wouldnât it be useless not to publish this document, especially if the emperor doesnât allow it.
âIs it all useless in the end?â
Disappointment was as great as expected. I looked down at the documents I had held silently in my arms for a long time. Come to think of it, my life was always like that. A comfortable road. There has never been an easy road.
âIt was always like this. You donât have to be disappointed.â
Therefore, I raised my head again after making a sullen face.
âItâs okay. Iâm sure thereâs a way.â
âIs it okay?â
âYes! Of course, my life has always been like that. The easier it was to go, the harder it was. So Iâm fine.â
Itâs okay. If you say itâs okay, itâd be really okay. With such expectations, I made eye contact with him.
âI thought youâd be disappointed.â
âYeah. I was disappointedâ¦â Nothing changed just because I was disappointed.
âItâs always been like that.â
I was disappointed every time I lost my mom and lost her again. There were many days when I was frustrated and struggling with the reality that I couldnât save my mother.
Now that I thought about it, all those days seemed to have provided me with the âpower to endure.â
The power to get up quickly.
âYouâre brave. Then Bebe, will you do anything to announce it?â
âYes!â
âThen, good for you.â
At that moment, I only opened my eyes wide at an unexpected word.
âHuh? Will it turn out well?â
âIâm showing you how strong you are in the morning.â
âAh!â
âAbleland Grand Park is a place that prioritizes strength. It flattens the noses of the vassals who keep talking nonsense. At least those who say you were put here for no reason will be speechless. If I have to say, itâs much better than those guys who talk without any power.â
As his lips smiled, he stared at me.
âWhat do you think?â
âGood!â
âOf course, there will be people who wonder about that power. Then youâll have a hard time. Is that okay?â
âIf I could enter a public place, I could do anything.â
I clenched my fist and made eye contact with him.
If only that could happen, so if I could wake up my momâ¦
I didnât care what I became.
âIf you do that, no one will be able to touch me. Me, too. My mom, too.â
If you did that, no one would touch my mom like last time. That alone was enough.
My enlightened head and the Grand Dukeâs head moved at the same time positively.
âI like it because itâs lively. There are plans they would like to achieve, and if so, I will take care of the work for that day.â
âArenât you going to worry?â
âYes. First of all, Iâll go to the forest.â
âForest?â
âThis forest is a great place to live. Do you know anything about him?â
âI heard thereâs a silver wolf!â
âYes, that forest with silver wolves. If we talk about him, we go back to the distant past.â
I nodded to ask them to hear me when I was completely out of expectation.
âA long time agoâ¦â
âYeah. The current Duke of Avrant is a man with a small amount of royal blood, but the previous Grand Duke was a loser.â
