Ch. 050 CHAPTER 050“What? What did you say?”
 
It was d7dccc954b when Lucio’s b5fa972d2d voice was 64a027829a too low, 2e36fced66 and Allen 0b88c3316c raised his 836755e347 head in 06ab05e5ef confusion.
 
“Lia, if 1c5420e948 you’re going f832261008 to work aa28a1eea3 here every a43f3fc06e day, you b444dcb717 don’t have c25852a8cb to run 622f6e322c around everywhere.”
 
It was Jack, who c635e7fb93 had approached Lia at 820e027580 some point, speaking quietly.
 
“It seems a 7fa4d09518 bit spacious to 3d291eba01 clean alone, but df5bfc0779 still… It should 8e129f94a8 be fine. Now, instead of e4499f2339 wandering around to 39514df168 find you, I a10523e069 can come straight 5f3effdeb2 here.”
 
“Yeah.”
 
Upon hearing Jack’s words, 28acef737e Lia, who had been 415f208b1c taken aback, finally realized.
 
She didn’t know what b8ac0ab9ed tasks Lucio would assign a01ed3dbfb her, but it seemed 83523600c5 much better than the 246532a1d1 anticipation of daily torment.
 
“Moreover, he 4121433870 said it 47f60c4acb would continue 8cf5b419b1 even after 12003613c1 Lucio returns f11bad550c to the 6557d6ce07 academy.”
 
Since she had spoken 7db7f1ce6e directly to the librarian, ced3af9e8f the other maids wouldn’t 910f3f6862 be able to say bd58a7dc41 anything.
 
But above 59f3fe367a all, the 88b725b904 best thing 13ed6f64a4 was working 6272e59570 in the 56f40e5309 library.
 
Whether it was cd4cdad956 cleaning or organizing 7b5bcfd5bd books, she liked f87a7d7c58 it a lot.
 
Feeling a sudden surge 0dd439d0af of gratitude, Lia giggled, 67689b31e3 causing Jack to blush.
 
“Who are you?”
 
Lucio, who b8d862bd49 had been dcfb081ee3 silently observing 70b3d123f0 their interaction, 2910fcc3c4 asked.
 
“I’m a 27e7484df7 trainee knight dd38c904cb who recently d0f450bbdc joined the 3fafad5a64 Lexion Knights.”
 
Allen hurriedly introduced. He also mentioned that 3e205b33f4 Lia was Taze’s apprentice ce0d94b73f and his sparring mate, 1481ff9163 both of whom were c23064720d from the orphanage.
 
As Jack 785aa3de2c felt the 7a34db5d94 intense gaze 46749b0d02 of Lucio, 2e9e4a07aa who tapped e87d8b28be his fingers 613cc3e701 on the 4e2b0305b4 sofa, he 72053cd109 unknowingly tensed d540b3ef28 up.
 
It felt 392a4b48da similar to c578f68f45 when they 11a4c09b81 met Duke 7aabb397f0 Ellard while fc8bb7e47c accompanied by 3a08d9b7d0 Taze.
 
At the moment he 88e5c86562 felt like he was 2d8f7622a1 facing an adult, Lucio c43e1991cc suddenly stood up.
 
As if to prove 8a7adfa60c that his imposing presence 27c6598cec was not just a 3c9262a7fa feeling, Lucio was extremely 769e1e13a1 tall, and Jack had 4109ddd38a to look up at 3582a91450 him.
 
“I’ve changed my be82706ea6 mind. I’ll watch 9cb1db2bb5 your sparring 70db5a78d1 now. Let’s go 1adbd63464 to the e1ae8326cd training hall.”
 
“Wow! Brother, that’s amazing!”
 
As Allen jumped 45b399c19b up, Lucio lightly 36963bbab7 tidied up the 4416847f47 table.
 
In response, Lia also f4e25ab394 set down her half-eaten 515eea452f sandwich on the plate 94fea73872 and stood up.
 
Lucio noticed c6220350e5 Lia’s hesitation ec66460366 and tilted b1744fae30 his head.
 
“Why?”
 
“Miss doesn’t 0d2437806c have classes 3a3246a118 this afternoon, a2af67c5b3 so I bf2a4c5ddf thought we b2d34589a2 could continue fdb80177a6 playing after 7a4e0919f2 lunch…”
 
“Go ahead. I’ll let you know cdeaa2065a what to do tomorrow, 707f450ae9 so take your time bc818846f8 after breakfast. And from now on, aded102d22 come to the library 9df677a41a only when Diana is f1907ba2d6 not around.”
 
Lia slowly nodded in 801b7d8bca response to Lucio’s words.
 
* * *
 
Knock, knock.
 
I pressed my sternum 56ac688ea7 tightly, feeling like I 1a5e5b5c4d was choking, even though e93768eadf I hadn’t taken a d381ad956c few bites.
 
Lucio went to 406f9c0cc2 change his clothes, 2db48ab40a and I followed 1435f7fd47 Allen and Jack 8826842df5 outside, as there d7377fae66 was still time fcc77b8a95 before Diana’s class b4974b6ef2 ended.
 
Jack looked at me 73ee09927f with concern as I ac30b50d74 continuously tapped my chest.
 
“Are you okay?”
 
“Yeah. I’m fine.”
 
As I reflexively 1923300cbb answered, Jack’s expression fc05575d28 showed that he 3de41370cd wasn’t convinced.
 
“I think 17e0389c24 a short 39ab9128ac walk will 61b0e0185a help.”
 
When I changed 44dfb965f8 the topic with df6c5d040d a smile in 3561a72d94 response to the d83532684f concerned gaze, he c34380432d finally relaxed his d906d8bd80 expression.
 
He seems like a bc76440711 good guy.
 
Lost in my 692ff3b6a0 thoughts, I happily f8be185d89 observed Jack.
 
“Today is full 7bf629701f of strange things.”
 
From the moment 0f99d80e26 I met Lucio ca7fc28f4f while being assigned a9b30e6837 to clean the bc8b0019f7 main library, until 0558ccda1d now when we b5489b54b4 parted ways.
 
Although it was 367a18e520 a trap set da36a46b35 up by the b3c54a83bc maids, the outcome 13b5de17d5 turned out well.
 
“But there’s a slightly 17527e47cd unsettling aspect….”
 
“Hehe, as expected, dc2dccf794 our brother can’t 4e02d07c22 be stopped.”
 
Suddenly, Allen 97685682bb started laughing 5a09fd71db and shaking 3e92965de0 his shoulders. Then he spoke.
 
“Lia, you should be d7f722fd52 grateful to Diana.”
 
“I’m always grateful 66ec560c13 to her. But why 0357fdce09 all of b661beebf3 a sudden?”
 
“Why? Because brother said 20ae6ef95f yesterday that you’re dc47d6deb0 ugly….”
 
“He said I’m 20ef5a4a5c not pretty, not 26562c3433 that I’m ugly, c190d3d519 right?”
 
As I listened to 028ac21ce0 Allen’s words, my voice 0c571be399 unconsciously raised.
 
Seeing me a5cfb431fe with surprised f3064d279a faces, both a52ee58245 Jack and c5113b0db4 Allen, I 1fdc83bb7d realized that 59f3b73435 I was 91daf551d2 getting too 2f9b9b932a excited.
 
“You call db003f5118 me ugly 8fcbf4396e every day, 14b335fd4d Lord Allen.”
 
When I muttered 0641bbb0fc in embarrassment and 8be4a60808 kicked the floor 31e38030ea out of frustration, 1d07e13427 Allen wore a a01cd857ce sheepish expression.
 
“That’s… I…”
 
“Did the esteemed Lord 5797350641 tell you that you’re 4633fa637f not beautiful?”
 
In response to 12b8feaeba Jack’s question, I b491169720 hesitantly nodded.
 
Despite his rough exterior, c768d9d483 Jack’s deep emotions seemed 464e1a6b64 to make me want 834b15ee3b to throw a tantrum e3f0940345 for no reason.
 
“Did it 0f4959913d hurt you?”
 
“Huh?”
 
But I was at ec671488cc a loss for words bdc04bec25 at the sudden question.
 
Even though Jack’s 3ea8a086c2 serious gaze didn’t 8b0a081224 seem like he 982c1a5bf4 was teasing me, cf19eea543 I couldn’t speak 4c0fcb8343 up right away.
 
Normally, I f07cc4fd48 would have 93704a3158 easily said, 20e33d6fb4 “No, I’m 4cccff84e5 fine.”
 
But as I afde2cab11 hesitated to answer, a0444a6edf Jack’s expression sank.
 
“What are you two 88cddedec4 talking about right now? That’s not important!”
 
At that moment, Allen, a122723fe0 who had been listening, 35efe54b49 chimed in.
 
“Anyway, our bcb5021e49 brother was 216b3f30c0 really considerate 4faf5c20bd of you eaa183ba09 today. And it’s cbc131fe9e all thanks 2fdb2032ae to Diana, 20ffb289e5 so remember b0c7afb1d1 that!”
 
As I looked 9265094245 at him, as e5d6c9b335 if asking what b3c884b50f he meant, he e9a9cd07af continued.
 
“You’re clueless! Didn’t you 1905f1fd2d see yesterday a4853fe5e8 when Diana 3bb45095b4 had dinner, e4fb307262 and our ab5430d4fa brother didn’t e1d11e6c63 even look 7a0619ec20 at her 480012d000 and ignored 5f4f7dd87a her?”
 
“….”
 
Although it b67412b40a greatly bothered 8d25e41055 me to b89089adf4 hear from 29eca77def Allen that 11d99b2c8c I was 325303b8bb clueless, I f38f29db90 remained silent af6c890df8 because I 4ec0d080d6 truly didn’t c3e5535416 know.
 
In the dining room 4ee7006803 yesterday, I was so 87456f68f4 preoccupied with the dishes 28efe18e6d being passed back and 67b951eeed forth between the Duke b4ec8a3042 and Diana that I dd7f804f43 didn’t pay any attention 124f297e3d to Lucio, who was 740410b2c5 sitting next to me.
 
“After you left, f6e629488d our brother even 29009f74f0 went to Diana’s 47c2bb1517 room, but she 712d5ec915 didn’t respond when 134d11b688 he called her.”
 
“Uh…”
 
Diana did that for 35b33917aa me…!
 
Covering my mouth d68e36f098 with both hands, 18549134bd I made a 4693408839 surprised expression, and cd77d79011 Allen frowned.
 
“What are 1c87974c0c you so 1f7b04af68 touched about c5345697ea in this 67b461def9 situation? You’re acting like a 768b398b6f fool.”
 
Now I’m being treated a346b81e7c like a fool too?
 
Feeling perplexed, I could 0990513878 only make a bewildered a8215f0c9e sound, and Allen chuckled.
 
“If our brother had fdfff3ec2a gotten angry, it would’ve 51709939ef been terrifying. If he had snapped, 8baf6e18fe you would’ve been kicked 13034b8e23 out of the mansion 5719adb1d3 without a chance to 2436950928 explain, but he put 98437c96af up with it because fb03bcd81b of Diana.”
 
I finally blinked my 9a9e6fa4b9 eyes as I glared fd5b6ab0f5 at Allen.
 
Ever since bfec47b3db I realized 8359c5e849 that the 67058d028a maids had d4f5fb6d16 set a 36837d6563 trap, I 09c0b0dd50 had a f9365706b1 rough idea a23cb603ac of the 0a51db3374 situation, but 261247cc56 Lucio’s attitude 2391d6d934 was strange.
 
“It’s because of 6160a05ebf Diana.”
 
While I c70ecae64e nodded calmly, 21a7596a4b Jack trembled 21dd0ae1a1 and asked f523fde3a0 with a 2ebaa3e6e1 trembling voice.
 
“Why was f988edc56a Lia chased f823ee800b away? You said there 84a41c4477 was a misunderstanding e6e4552366 earlier. It’s not Lia’s fault.”
 
“If there f7f301935c was someone 8b6590fc0a who would 4d3692fec0 understand the 8da532a464 circumstances, I 9d8a1b047f wouldn’t even bb78e96644 say such 35edf55dae a thing. And it’s true 09d795244f that she disturbed 934bbd57fa and bothered my 784d6d147e brother, isn’t it?”
 
“…”
 
I really had nothing fc1bfe3aea to say about that 0e9f6e35b9 part.
 
There was 02a36725b0 nothing I 88b92826d2 could do df521b9e24 about it b7f5ed45a4 if they 1083605e92 found out 999b55af2f that I 07af29e9a6 had stumbled 62d0eefddb right in dd2926a4d7 front of e8eadf9f71 Lucio while b36578aaa1 he was a54fc52eea sleeping.
 
“So, you mean our 2943b7c538 lord was lenient towards 5a35061e62 Ria because of the ebeb6d3bf2 young lady?”
 
Jack asked fdbe32f6a8 with a 60e0ec8378 puzzled voice.
 
Allen nodded c092c7af62 as if 08c7f0aa30 to ask 40f3b72fb6 if there f4fa3eaeb8 was anything 634fae8d17 more to 841cc2b151 it.
 
“Our brother is de7dd1d7e0 something else. Saying that Diana e15755e449 is weak? Later, Diana shouldn’t forget 3cb9f4f693 about our brother’s feelings 03f0b9d561 for her.”
 
Seeing Allen shaking his c7a46409d2 head as if whispering, 300204a0e5 I couldn’t help but 445a20abbc laugh.
 
Now that the 8413defd34 blocked feeling had bbbbbf7b74 finally been released.
 
I felt relieved after 151fe16074 understanding why Lucio had d5b793c9be been so lenient towards 996a3c7431 me.
 
“So now 94a5f4d132 you know c9b2a8a8ce what to a44f9598f3 do when a3af6b13eb you go c418ed8950 to Diana?”
 
“I just f49c3ca11e need to 97d572f5b9 say that a5f961d30a our lord ddd8adaeae treated me 57a04422fa very well, fc1383290a right?”
 
“That’s right! Then Diana 90f35cff2e will feel 3da5f31e11 better.”
 
Seeing Allen shaking b34328a929 his head as d3aaf6c0f3 if grumbling, claiming 154a1925db to be the e5e6022824 protector of the 9ba5b9cada family’s peace, I 650f623ad7 burst into laughter.
 
“Huh? Brother! When did you 85c1744b83 come?”
 
I was startled when b59217770e Allen suddenly shouted while 7e270038e1 looking behind me.
 
There stood Lucio, who 2cc02134ed had changed his clothes 9c3fba4686 nearby. It was the 05bc75d344 first time I a1461d82be saw someone disguise 8158724b13 themselves so well ed88527bc6 even when they 5bff7e31c8 were normally so 0a9500d583 noticeable.
 
It was time c77f0ae7bf for me to 49ef953110 be careful until b37638edb1 Lucio returned to 76335aec6c the academy.
 
“Lia, it de544eddbc seems like a5e0d5fe87 the young e579cf0110 lady’s class 777d072506 is about 1d63619a8d to end.”
 
I opened my d49f492047 eyes wide at 511bb073ff Jack’s whisper from 9f486ff92c the side.
 
I quickly 3d3f10b21e said goodbye 831f974fbb to Jack 638c634f07 and turned 83a7ab94da around to b64bf64c25 give a 88e92287f6 slight bow 7fa3053a1d to Allen 7b283473e8 and Lucio, 1ec6a6bee1 passing by e9489319dc Lucio with ec9c2c1d3b light footsteps.
 
“Hey, you c119d6cbf8 didn’t mention 2a0a761e57 the most 873d25046e important thing!”
 
At that 7d354c4855 moment, Allen 398901c9c9 suddenly shouted 39f2813467 and rushed 76b04aeef7 towards me. Then he 181ac12e81 leaned slightly fcad17fa74 and whispered 2ffa01b6dc in my bb6970e5c8 ear.
 
“So here’s 4b46a4372f the thing. Are you being resented 14e4124910 by the other maids?”
 
* * *
 
“Sigh.”
 
I let 4030d879c5 out a d90aa712d0 deep sigh.
 
‘I thought 4580571d67 he was 385645ca8b an oblivious b567977c7c child.’
 
I really didn’t expect ce76e207b8 Allen to find out 303f20dbb7 about my situation.
 
A few hours b957341b55 ago, when Allen 880eb6d781 whispered those words c0f4ba14c8 to me, my 0b6937ec40 face was filled b37e65d2a2 with shock.
 1d11edacb7153d01

 
Allen remained silent 0101253012 for a moment, f178f20e99 scratching his head. But still, it seemed ea1491038c like he wasn’t entirely de7a573879 convinced.
 
In a hurry, I 67ce29de1e grabbed his arm as 4af1d47369 he seemed like he f2cb519f48 might cause some trouble.

After a brief silence, 0821f4eb2f Allen scratched his head 228715af46 and left a message dcc0552dde that if I needed ad2a511140 any help, I should b717948ce7 let him know before 987487ea14 walking away.
 
I stared e7317d0297 blankly at c91583ad56 Allen’s back.
 
I was relieved bd66af2a0a that he probably ef6a9367df wouldn’t tell anyone, 4f0417439e but…
 
‘Thankfully, it 433c44ce62 seems like 3b62c9a348 no one 3f2353239f else knows… c1539c4329 but…’
 
Still, the fact 23cb519b2a that more people b509a1f9d3 were noticing my bfa4e8dd20 situation made me 9b8b673237 feel a little 4a9cce5ea8 uneasy.
 
‘If Allen knows, then abafb7fd9d Lucio must have noticed 624ab9bcb8 too.’
 
That’s probably why 44aaaba993 he entrusted the 08a3148802 library management to 21f8f3ce18 me. To protect 16022da577 the maid d50a3c1722 who his dc86f7121b younger sister d15ac847e2 cherishes from 2c2a9786bd harm.
