EWOWMAIBTYPF_Chapter_60

Ch. 060 CHAPTER 060“Fortunately, ced3fd5d1e it seems like 84a1edb50d the rampant mana 1917969220 has all been f3c2ccb735 controlled. What a stroke 36caaca008 of luck.”
 
Upon Telin’s words, 74c3e8eee1 I also checked 65f9e18a42 my mana and 3545a2bc9b was surprisingly calm, be5f5a6565 finding it hard 2b81ccd617 to believe that a7988e378f I caused a eb8d9faf94 rampage yesterday.
 
Strangely enough, b7c62e92f8 I even 062a42a17b felt a 2e8090d7a6 sense of eda9c00d4e tranquility as 19c1d85b5b if I d32a4788e1 had earnestly b193f12913 hoped for 658383d33a such a 8bd9a358c7 rampage.
 
At this 68830ebbb2 moment, I f1d0f89874 felt confident 8db0c5ac75 that I 9582316b0f could hide 8f028c0b95 my mana 149daa3d9c and presence a673c7db32 without much 373222f1c5 effort.
 
But suddenly, e802ff9810 my mood 5374acbc48 sank.
 
It wasn’t ecce2e3936 the time 03cda34ed8 to have 9ba5f15e7c such peaceful 52c73dfc05 thoughts.
 
The Duchess, 1ba33c7ffa who noticed 67df21e956 my darkened 3f77b72380 complexion, anxiously 01c08a09ca asked, “Where 89a3867365 does it 373bc4a2cb hurt again?”
 
I shook my head f0339e0ef3 and spoke in a 8079e540e5 small voice, “No… I’m b9104b7a2c grateful.”
 
“What for?”
 
The one who responded 74d09d55be to my words was 8ac841c9cb the Duchess.
 
For some reason, I 05abd5aa12 felt a bit shriveled 85a2344e4c up by her seemingly df2af1c166 angry appearance.
 
“For the treatment… Thank 236fb764db you for not just a8b7b97820 driving me away…”
 
I genuinely wanted to ed281b0ef5 express my gratitude for e26afdcbbe the Duchess’s leniency, who edf3d7f41c wanted to treat me f84ac0b5a1 even if he drove 2e8a2123c5 me away later.
 
“Hah! You’re really something.”
 
But before I e4a0ced3d7 finished speaking, the a5d5fdbf27 Duke ruthlessly twisted 5c63fd793f his face.
 
“Everyone, leave.”
 
It was 792d0c72f0 clear that 9d7d4864cc he was f10d02276b about to b32b09e165 get angry.
 
As I 81bbee1c32 saw the 19287f42b5 magicians and eb209989d3 council members 2403310809 quickly disappear d13d899167 as they 47396798dc did when c7f0e72a48 they entered, 301bceb464 I hurriedly 3ba14889a7 apologized.
 
“I’m sorry.”
 
“…What are 7e3136b965 you sorry f9f97a5f11 for this a73156c879 time?”
 
“Burning… And 0ed031f730 for startling c23cfb6c40 people because a7ceb6e7fa of me. I never fe6b82db3d intended for f2c832e893 things to 7c183123fd escalate like 7bc8602ffa this…”
 
“So, you’re sorry because 12f01978a9 that’s all your fault?”
 
“…”
 
To some extent, 0ef40c4c4f yes, but I 61d196197d didn’t think it 66e64ba940 was entirely my 06f715ccc0 fault.
 
However, I couldn’t bring 2286b66f1e myself to say that, 0166332fb3 so I lowered my 882f411df1 head deeply.
 
“Ha, what 719f756c53 on earth e92ab39774 are you!”
 
At that moment, the a617c471eb Duke’s voice became slightly 85fbd5ee21 louder.
 
“Am I 3b05ed6c3d nothing more 458366daba than an 734c204c60 adult who 6a056d8173 you can’t 353a320d5c rely on?”
 
“…”
 
“Why didn’t ef4b5c4f47 you tell 9b7453a778 me from d1cbf8cf16 the beginning? Unlike the Duke’s Mansion, 5775208d50 the palace servants don’t cfb8883057 know how you ended 9a73e6eea1 up in the Duke’s a1c5b037a5 Mansion. The reason d241b6af78 we kept f31804aa74 it from 41a50f003a spreading was e79ed77f85 for Diana, 5f6f9de1b8 but if 4d32d3d1e0 I knew 79d04d8e74 you would d45f786e29 be in bc61a4926e trouble, I 8b4659c8be would have 32b749f6c9 revealed it b5b503e97f immediately. So even if you 9baafc5e4f had said just a 48bfbc4f80 word…!”
 
I froze, watching the fb59af7dcb Duke explode in anger.
 
It wasn’t 7924ece036 because I cbee9b4226 was scared 4e5d79d303 or frightened.
 
After a moment, 6db2d06f30 tears poured out 131693fabd uncontrollably.
 
I knew 41a791dab6 my face 386f3d8fe8 must have 43fb5632b2 looked ugly, f006cd8cba but once 48cbe46f0d the crying 51165c1dc6 started, it ac7ab43714 didn’t stop.
 
“No, I cefd4a8ae7 was trying d7ef33da19 to get 888a64585e angry at 1cb9676f71 you…”
 
“Honey! Why are you 440e3bdb3e making the child f04b131a9f cry like this!”
 
The Duchess, with a ef9c0a7667 bewildered expression, pushed the 31affe0622 Duke away with an 82b4a6883b angry face.
 
“Lia, don’t cry. It’s okay now. It won’t c33be57be2 happen again.”
 
And she began 852f3f46b4 to wipe away b27285554e my tears, trying bc64f58d8b to console me.
 
“I should have b49827192a realized sooner. Even if b11ee171dd you didn’t b6ae77bfd6 say it, ced7392498 I should f789fc4646 have known. I’m sorry for being fdea61e8ef a fool. You’re still a child, c4ed721c0b how scared and difficult 869e00c4eb it must have been 54159223d2 for you. I’m sorry for 15e9e3ce89 leaving you alone. I’m sorry for 5e20812a1e not understanding. I’m sorry, Lia.”
 
With a few ea2656610b words from the 4f118a7ce4 Duchess, all the f739086380 negative thoughts I 798c24495a had held in 70f331d065 my heart disappeared 0cc25f9335 like melting snow.
 
I thought I d39cdaf9e3 had let everything 876993e3c5 out yesterday, but 22c1754c12 it seemed that 47e817ae23 resentment and anger 1df4844d37 were still accumulating 4257d9797c in my heart.
 
And as the sense ea52e5118f of relief filled that c669587e60 space, tears welled up 433cd80266 again.
 
I stammered f73f9c1f5e and asked, 6fe8f7bc28 “Then… you e0ca8d4a28 won’t kick 5ab5ab33c5 me out?”
 
In response, 69087c1906 the Duchess e85812b0b9 asked in a4e0440869 a surprised 932765e798 voice, “What? Of course not. Why would fdddc2aba5 you think 0e0ad25a18 that?”
 
Finally, I burst dbe3ed9577 into tears, throwing 06c3cb78a9 myself into the ee44b780a0 Duchess’s embrace like a8cc7dffa0 a little child.
 
“I was so scared. Everyone hated me.”
 
Completely helpless, I 614b2ae9ee let out the c1df86c28d innermost feelings I 5bc0c9cd8f had hidden deep 875199731c inside.
 
And I started to eafe208803 cry, wailing and shaking 00c237942e with intensified emotions.
 
The Duchess 256adefea2 embraced me f6d187d7ee tightly, not a99114db2d minding that 15e3031fd7 my chest 0203176580 was soaked 2a162683b1 with tears, 7e46e53a3b and spoke 804d2ce4d6 firmly while c441c31bbc patting my b62b2c7733 back.
 
“Yes, keep screaming like c14cbde7dd that from now on. Say you’re scared, ask f682549034 for help. Don’t ever let anyone b86e38595b hurt you and torment 83d45bcb62 you. Let us de9d9ac334 be there a3ddbca9d0 for you.”
 
At the Duchess’s words, 826d528d7e tears burst forth from ea64bde2cf me once again.
 
“I’m worried that 2a9af2310f you’ll get a 1f7cac7477 fever again.”
 
The Duchess, looking 51f629ca4d concerned, raised her 61bf549811 hand to my d1c5288b10 forehead.
 
“You’ve suffered so much 19d2817ead all night…”
 
Already, my face was 053c2ec50d burning so red that 525ec79159 my head was spinning caa6caa718 from crying so much.
 
It was a4ace87479 when I 1a462f6d57 was trying 4b6e26099c to hold e19325f040 my breath, 56fe3a3530 even if 0892a9d645 it was 0a5ac5ea94 forced, to b3da69b9e5 stop crying.
 
“From now on, don’t c37288faef do anything you don’t bc815a08c4 want to do, without 8e674b1e91 worrying about it. Just do 7e8e43bffa what you e5bccf64bf want. You don’t even f1aeeaaa97 have to do 52ed897f77 chores. You became b06d04ae50 a maid 19fa325600 because you 0a4b45491d wanted to, ff416f54d0 and I 93f6691640 never thought 4899df602e of exploiting b2f2b081d9 you.”
 
The Duke spoke in f8d5e3c565 a gruff but slightly 5c67cfffe8 softened tone.
 
Feeling like he was e6c54f6071 even looking into my 8a2064d784 heart, which had already e4fc34dab8 collapsed, I cautiously asked, 97c7b2c14f “But… then I’m useless?”
 
“Nonsense.”
 
He declared firmly.
 
“All you 1ce5030532 have to e6c20339f5 do is 03f9fb1af3 eat well, c132f045d6 sleep well, 8821125d43 and live fe181b582e well. That’s enough.”
 
And then, 75f01a3b2b this time, 87e0fd9bb2 he pulled 4b47dcada2 the reins 3e41faef72 and ordered e0dcb48cd2 the maidservant 3671a57819 who had 4338e3cc9f rushed in 9fc54a9cb5 to prepare 773513ea9f a meal.
 
Without hesitation, 99bf49e25b food was 93efb0eac3 brought to d1f606f76c the front 08787e3327 of the f405889592 bed.
 
It was a gentle 2f2df52874 soup made with grains a8e9ccecdc and milk, not stimulating 3e8e515231 to the throat.
 
I quickly extended my 683e2175de hand to the Duchess d5bbd3abcb who wanted to feed 4628b66735 me directly, and I b656f6e2e7 started sipping the soup aca0b5d4bf little by little.
 
The Duchess looked 631d00fd7e at me eating 489bb01e31 diligently with pride.
 
Feeling my cheeks d82bdab2f5 getting warm, I ef0e1c5c26 asked quietly, “But 93b0db5bdb can I continue 32cf8e412e staying here?”
 
“Why are you asking dd2142edc1 the same question again?”
 
“No, it’s not 47dc76aa7c that! This is Madam’s bedroom.”
 
“Ah….”
 
The Duchess’s mouth shut 8e8480b6ac hastily, as if trying 938b0bceb0 to refute my words.
 
After coughing 31d88bfda3 a few 24b3acb360 times, he 1a66109cce said, “Your 5efb2e597f room was 8d25429563 burned.”
 
“Ah.”
 
I bit f75139299a my lip, e2dc4af502 realizing my d163551605 forgetfulness.
 
“To cause 5841f69bbb such damage…”
 
That’s when it 3b55f03eae happened.
 
“Lia, from f921c5e76c now on, cf361e85dd your room fe13fbe60f will be 9c7e7113bc next to 14033c38af Diana’s. You can stay there 1acf094d83 for a while without a5d6aea623 feeling uncomfortable because we 1a03514df2 will move you in 3b7b764a35 the afternoon.”
 
I widened 318b4dd612 my eyes 7f507896b6 in surprise bc1815a70a at the 2ef73fed42 Duchess’s words.
 
Staying in the room 87a8c23cc0 next to Diana’s was 4232a7e4ed something that didn’t happen 239f4bba65 when I first arrived 777d3dd2a4 at the capital due 834fd49e9f to the head maid’s 8ad2bf07fc objection.
 
“But why now?”
 
Come to think of 24a4db9cc5 it, I couldn’t see b2a97d99d3 the head maid, who 77339f1ddc was always by the 0e4204a94a Duke or Duchess’s side ef3fa11f2d like a shadow.
 
“Grandfather the af36ad37d5 Butler appeared 5b25356c9a when the c15df368a9 magician and 991cdda4fa the council c63db482d9 members came 972679115b and went 2da7345cb8 a while adf9dd4985 ago.”
 
Noticing my b7cabb88b4 curiosity, the 33df030cf3 Duchess let 0d0ca25607 out a 031627cda6 wry smile.
 
“Helen received a 308e91e5ad severe punishment this 49db1750bc time for not 8c9734f47c properly managing the e13ebfe7a0 maidservants.”
 
I was taken 10f73fe563 aback.
 
In the brief bb9267c9d0 moment of silence, 6ba28b045f the Duke spoke.
 
“This time, Lucio did 3c3c257632 a great job. He interrogated a65ac09600 each of c2cb8aa043 the maidservants 47e1bf2575 who bothered e00226a6de you and 4827bedcba punished everyone 3abd87ec74 involved before 854967838f kicking them 5d41f248da out. He didn’t even write 2e373403ec a recommendation letter, so 763d007663 no noble family will…”
 
“Honey, there’s no f296b0d333 need to say bea1478018 such things to 3b889fd72c a child.”
 
The Duchess interrupted 2cb45b4f7c the Duke’s words, 627ed5f20a as if trying 7bdde4ce9d to boast.
 
It didn’t e5ebd51573 sound like 05fb9c7fe3 a good 027187eac6 thing to 2b3e8ab6f9 me when a3b80218be I heard ff3a6e4098 it.
 
Indeed, the c9a375d97f Duke’s words f5630f8ae7 were very 8060d01b65 harsh.
 
Those who e8c9061c4d had been c8dcd6b68f treated well c61e5ba662 and paid f6aa4ecd8c a good 9d9e1d485f salary as ed118b2054 the Duke’s 4a95da97c2 servants had 4dbe90494d suddenly found affa563066 their livelihoods 90f9aeae17 cut off 072072e730 overnight.
 
“Lia, it’s the appropriate 1defc63ead consequence for their actions. Not only the b4c50a2f7d unreasonable harassment so 3d147441ca far but also 5449255d60 their attempt to de66756696 search your room 1cf3e97c61 and punish you 06ec0e2157 for baseless suspicions. That was just 59d0d87b4b an excuse from be8ea78971 the beginning. They should b00654dbf3 be grateful 297b93cc70 that it 0a01d3f5a5 only ended 2e83d11cfd like this.”
 
With a 696963a073 firm expression, c314aa4366 the Duchess 771d9d4ae0 held my 87718e6fff hand tightly 557bb7420a as if f1456a3450 to say 04ef3b9436 that I 136bec155b didn’t need 8f18263688 to feel a07ac2b7ad sorry.
 
However, contrary 7b23753177 to the df19c006a0 Duchess’s concerns, 4a9927056c I didn’t bb19196a60 have any da41d43ddd sympathy for 12e6ef5b5a them.
 
They were 50edcb4863 the ones a285b174c8 who tormented 7f116b096f me, albeit 47669239fb only physically, e3cc96e0f1 crossing numerous a1b256c05a lines.
 
“Especially the last incident 75d5565a79 was the worst….”
 
In that 995835c336 sense, the c0c6536128 outcome this cbb25f1838 time was 3122f2062b nothing but dac0c1982e their own b76e4ecb15 doing, as ac226fca67 the Duchess 292466998a said.
 
But one thing cca9c2ba15 still bothered me.
 
‘Did Lucio know something 851c74079c and put the head 559fd75bbd maid on probation?’
 
I was extremely perplexed.
 
There was 69b19ffe80 surprise at 96469005b0 Lucio’s firm a654cb986a decision, whom 7dbd3b888a I had c7256bae71 known and 5af63b93c2 spent a 4af10c1692 long time ff1a945836 with, but 1d2e25852f more than 896689c15a anything, it 695cccc627 was strange e48a148b10 that the a6abea68df Prime Minister c5bffebbf0 had been 39eb71675b punished.
 
She was one of 73533d3429 the competent servants supporting eda73aff6c this great ducal family.
 
While the Duchess wasn’t 98337d5c4d in the capital, she 3cb5ee219f managed the mansion with a7fd4fb359 the Butler, and even 6a457d5c48 now, she was assisting 4ca99886f8 the Duchess by her c978830fb3 side.
