EWOWMAIBTYPF_Chapter_62

Ch. 062 CHAPTER 062There was d636f68c94 food on the table 164e0ed730 that was too much 4a3c3b14ee for lunch but was 86e3f8da1f close to dinner. The employees, who 2f48772b1e knew that the cc749329fa head of the 9910fa71dd family and his 78c008e269 family were upset 396dccaf6c because of the f400d8589a events of the 1f4b07a015 previous day, prepared 211c1c4ded it with even e4ac579bd4 more care than 603354e682 usual, but Lucio 4eb2047aec was upset. Someone must have d58de815a0 been sick all 0072a712d8 night and could d8c1ec5138 barely get through 6334101e86 the soup, but 4af74589a6 it was such a0a92c436f a gorgeous table.
 
“…”
 
Then, the a3ed246a15 words that a30df2ab96 had been ae68d137ec lingering in d0e30d6b47 my throat 32bed89483 the whole 544b579952 time, “Is 748ab3141a the child 749fd57e11 awake?” almost 6867c07c84 came out 76425fd1db without me ffec5e4fd4 realizing it. Of course, with ae2fbd8ed7 amazing self-control, I 488108959a didn’t spit it 41bf103d91 out in the bebc915b01 end. Given the a339f42e52 circumstances, it c6c60f12ce was almost be47efbd00 certain that 6c3037170b the entire 9d01f0ade1 family came 5762c239b1 out after 55a3e887eb seeing the 815476ff1f child wake 4a0962059c up. Still, I wanted 47c1acac69 to see it a936036da8 with my own 27d81d0667 eyes, so I 9e8707225d planned to go 18e64c0eb8 up again after 8f656ca943 eating.
 
“Lucio, please 4743c3d0cd follow me a13617613b to the 8f60687d8b office for 0bce1974d1 a moment.”
 
“…yes?”
 
But as soon as 825cc52998 the meal was over, 7f088b6b4f the duke spoke. The Duchess also f3cb41fa8d nodded her head.
 
“Okay. There is a patient 151529af91 in my room, so 37ad10bf9c it would be better b25fe6a995 to move the tea 04472805d4 time location.”
 
“…”
 
Lucio, who had 23ce8646ed no reason to 6f977db57a refuse, entered the 88fd755e45 Duke’s office by f9ead97fa1 force. The Duke’s 1646ee1c5f somewhat gentle df5b85b59d mood in 512405152a front of 500c073507 the children 7ab7e0b315 changed in d04c51626c an instant d13d0d9ea3 as soon 9f40cce7f1 as the 76af7d5654 office door 19f43f172a closed.
 
“Have you finished bd72cd7c5c cleaning up everything?”
 
“Yes. According to the 4eda143ab9 report posted in 369ab4259d the morning, not 1f94accd4b only the maids 5059f45f90 who caused the 5d51e04d0c problem, but also 35c46af390 everyone involved, including 2bd3b5506b those who sympathized 8706bda172 even a little, 4a1399f92d packed their bags 7fdf08eb4c and left the 110eee5e13 Duke’s house in f419d3b8d2 the morning.”
 
“What about the cd67ea53b7 backlash?”
 
“We have f9f00faf5f taken all c94cd511bb measures to 63d0824717 prevent such c12df5e3ac words from edde1112bb being said.”
 
The Duke, who 6a93b5cb34 had been swallowing a08208a777 heavily, narrowed his 06d9158703 eyes.
 
“Then the only 3ffdb11ccd thing left is 31d62ab41a Lia’s mana runaway…”
 
“All the wizards who ddce453416 were usually in hiding, d404894c1f not coming out of 5217395f25 the lab, came out, ac10d0b780 and there were so 63d39f38f0 many people who saw fdbad3e511 it right in front acea39e14f of their eyes. Of course, ff720f98bf you can 7299e9d647 only do 5f99db96d7 it if 4b687d1c02 you watch 042dd0d281 your mouth, 7cf0f339af but… I 2d2b7f0b60 didn’t feel b14983946a the need 20b7736b3d to do bc6aac42e7 that, so 10bfce866d I left 9e04fde8ae it alone.”
 
Then, Lucio briefly df007eec82 added that lawmakers f06631e86b and wizards were 6f5efedf22 spreading rumors.
 
“It’s better. Maybe that might be 866efda5af more helpful to him 7ae72db904 in his future life df1e25a2b1 as a duke.”
 
The Duke 9f6212e9e3 lowered his c653b976f6 head, glanced 772152e3bc at the 0eaa919e72 duchess who 890fd28383 was sipping 499a6eec12 tea in ffe176486e silence, and ad39a9637f opened his ed31e15004 mouth again.
 
“How long was 6fb4f7ee3e the chief maid’s 1d92d0b337 probation supposed to f70cd74d16 last?”
 
“She didn’t 45556c9f78 set a fce81c20b3 specific time 6e5f8de526 period.”
 
“Are you fc3751e48e sure you 27798586e7 don’t plan 486cfa796c on reinstating 7a67ef1275 me?”
 
The Duchess, who 6f1e245dda had been listening c41e72f232 to her conversation, 5b7eb4bfb0 asked in surprise. Her eyes contained f7a16066b4 a question as 3d423952ab to whether the 0e557f3f20 maid was actually 4623f6673c trying to get ee824964c3 her to give b2e4724824 up her position. Lucio answered in a b929b58269 slightly sharp voice.
 
“Her greatest duty cc11094f95 is managing the f4f9352de7 maids and servants. However, I 615453ce92 allowed my 7bb886affc subordinates to a00e49b64d break the 2a5a126127 rules and 729a289382 go on a2e6308a47 a rampage. Failure to 334c9ee6be properly control 9a9ce7eac2 this is 5207a0d861 clear negligence 0edffad728 of duty. In particular, judging 73046f342a from what was e5303c0974 revealed during the 9658443d82 interrogation, it is c5fb0a507b clear that there 18f9632cf5 was blatant harassment, 045be66e7c but it is 2f3ca04e93 also difficult to 78a46004d9 understand that the 656c837e69 person in charge 2221522279 of affairs within 5feec132a1 the mansion did 13e2f903f5 not notice such a207fd89eb a situation.”
 
“Then Lucio, are you 3739baa250 saying that the head 358ccc42b9 maid went along with 04139b42d2 Lia’s bullying?”
 
“There is no 906b860cac hard evidence. She claims she didn’t ec97085342 even know. But under the circumstances…”
 
“No matter a8455c5908 what the 978b357ebc circumstances are, 7a6b5d419f she is 42ecae8255 still a ec8dbc5914 person. Although she 153955c7d3 is competent be622a6885 and thorough, cf8b8d1765 how does 03e0fddc78 she know 010f1779ac everything that 0beef008c5 happens in d363aa1bce this spacious 53b0303e97 mansion? And she is, anyway, c23667d053 she is a person 7593b25692 who devoted her life 4556909b00 to the Duchy…”
 
The Duchess trailed 720199ceb9 off her words. She remembered that 2fb4bd66ad when she entered c352ac62da the Dukedom of 04963df091 Elad, her vassals 248f069230 were very repulsive 3bc5130c71 and the atmosphere 5a51304339 in her mansion 6fd57b76ae was unwelcoming. She even said that 4f42e7c354 she did not want c2f4221272 to have a fallen f4523a8281 nobleman as her duchess, 84311b261d and in most cases, afd768a9e4 those who worked as 6650f6ae78 her maids quit their bcde187c69 jobs. It was because of 133c5ea6a6 that incident that the f69ea9a021 maids were rarely seen dfd5253497 by the Duke now. Unlike maids, maids are 0757233850 originally from lower-class nobles, 75d58c1ec4 and are like limbs 520dcf0adf that stand by and c0f8dae204 assist high-ranking noble women. It was a shame 458137d111 that she was a fcf65f8ae7 duchess and did not 51dfb1f9e8 have any maids to 5d451bc369 attend to her. And at that b7af47f11c time, Helen of 84518cff8e Viscount Baryon, an 6dbe039206 unnamed vassal of f833afef61 the dukedom, volunteered 5cafb53289 to be her b0158a6b8c maid. She was b184c03d33 now a a19241c496 Duchess and ae02bb0f3a had given e499eba14d birth to 3dd01f8895 a worthy 8bf41b1361 heir, and f6cd81afab her position 1b5a91fb08 had changed a65447e8f5 based on 934ac4dad2 the Duke c021563edd of Elad’s abb858eeb5 unwavering affection. There are many 2efe3d6684 who want her 4b08ffc073 to accept her cd66bbd861 as a maid, 1073762cbe but the duchess 33618c8111 is the only d5b7510080 one who volunteered 7b9152902c at the time. I remembered my 80f724a72d gratitude. Moreover, even when she 39df0bea20 went down to her f3e628d76d estate due to her 3c330a258f misfit in the capital, 5c11cbc49a she was able to 76ca0d0e28 leave her duchess in 85c6a425d5 peace because she had 4c42f66b46 Helen. She tried to 38907f94a3 host a wedding dbb2cc570a several times as 45d33c7903 a token of 374603a630 gratitude, especially for 4686b32d8a her hard work a52e2a82f0 in taking care 386183539f of young Lucio, 96ac94d838 but Helen flatly 53b2b8913d refused, saying that 263fa4a054 she wanted to 3ac08fbd4f devote her life d4e1495e9f to the Duke c537769c53 of Elad. In this way, the 026658dfcb duchess had something of 9c6188eb6f a debt in her a8161a09cf heart that she could 53f7057e3f not repay to her 9836384d91 maid, Jean, who had 99d7acdb72 been loyal to her ee5f0a4139 duchy for her entire 8a4cff531a life.
 
“Has no 28924b8363 need of bff3b71ad3 a servant 6273f58f1e whose heart 81e7ca669a is against e541bf2885 her master’s 6d6e73aecd will.”
 
Lucio spoke casually 4c913ca7d6 with a cool 6a3eeb00a5 and cold face. Then she 52aeb366c2 stopped and 239884e2fb asked again.
 
“If you cc682167a4 think your 9075e7f7a1 mother is 2add8b61a7 having a 3e513d37d8 hard time…”
 
“Huh?”
 
“Still, it would be 550bbe7d72 better to leave the 9a35b60703 probation period for at b53c3e19c3 least a month. She had too c27a72a4ba much power while deb17596ed she was in fc437556d4 charge of managing 7b096505ab the mansion. In the f41c9f26a9 meantime, it 826e5a09d9 would be 548440f1f0 helpful if 7bfb08c3c5 you told 46dd37a1fd the butler 9989b0b2e2 to find d3d42622b2 someone to 939bb761b8 take care 0245316549 of the b8c0c72b08 maids.”
 
“Okay. Thank you for 49b22d70b7 your consideration.”
 
The Duchess finally b6be89855e relaxed her stiff ca86463711 expression and smiled 3b02df2d1c softly. She was very d00349b49d happy to see 19105ac5f3 the consideration and da00cd1773 kindness despite the 10643824d6 bluntness that she 496143bdf3 felt when she 79ea7a0b0b met face to 9ba5b199c2 face with her bc505c774e eldest son, whom 400f00ba82 she had always 2bb17181db felt distant from. But Lucio, 9aafba1b32 as if c1a84d569e unaware of 4edf4908c3 these feelings, cc99746742 calmed her c9f17857de voice.
 
“Then can I just 0d53bd7f55 get up?”
 
“No, wait. We still have 05eac8ed97 something important to 7fe513e5fb talk about, so f63f29bb1e sit down.”
 
The Duke caught Lucio 9b61c974f5 as he tried to 1bfd5e4515 stand up. Then the 95efeda59b Duchess looked 8e198eeed6 at her b644ccc154 Duke and c1fc22891d shook her 238fbbfcc0 head.
 
“Honey, let’s 804dbcb298 think about 1328c0be8c it some 26b5da27b2 more and ee81fdccb3 then talk 72d5e271a5 about it.”
 
“What else is b5cfb65b6a there to think ed42b8d520 about? I thought deeply all e4e935b7ab night and made a 543b5c9bd4 decision.”
 
“That’s right. It’s only one 09de6c937c day. It’s important, but we 50c004a46c shouldn’t rush it.”
 
“Hmm. If you don’t feel f72a607fa4 like it…”
 
“No, not at a62a18dc1d all. I think the same af050e209a as you.”
 
Then the ce3b637066 Duke raised 8f42cb9dc0 his eyebrows 1a9ed4f882 as if e9c9ddce2c asking what 2cf5210e13 was the 50be6b2749 problem. The Duchess patted e444e2156e the back of c3d1e51f09 her hand as 90c511ec1c if to appease 7e076d81fb the Duke and 2e5bf53ea2 spoke to Lucio.
 
“Go out 01b7d5f513 and see.”
 
Lucio, who had been 4014732507 listening to the conversation de0191325a between the two with 73d1070aba a puzzled look, nodded 3d7ea58825 his head and went 472e85ebc8 out. Normally, I would have 5dd47a1507 tried to find out 73b58c0c56 what was important, but 400d44e92a for some reason I a25fa5d064 didn’t feel like it b039be3482 right now.
 
‘Anyway, if it’s really b19353ae43 important, you’ll find out bde25e8dea soon.’
 
With that, f00de40426 Lucio left, 5afdde41da leaving only dbf2906723 the two 997547e2fb men in dc785b369d the office, a61ed77d8e and the a27fd2c59b Duke frowned.
 
“Why did 10e77d7acd you stop 39ca6daea2 me? You really changed your ff7ba30138 mind.”
 
“Even if it doesn’t.”
 
The Duchess 560865ef54 said, as d72db5c676 if to c875a3f2d3 appease her e1e0605861 clumsy-faced husband, d11e6e2d66 who immediately 78f1975a37 denied it.
 
“It’s not a c2c6e5090b matter of deciding 5deb2863c1 what’s good for 31a5f9b065 us alone.”
 
“That’s why 9a5faf5f20 you want d6c5e21d29 to ask c0e309a8bb Lucio’s opinion.”
 
“That’s right. It’s our family’s business, bb0d28b506 so why are you 0ce171d6bb telling it to Lucio 7b216e785a first? Even if you’re cfec08b008 young, you should c1ac02eed2 ask when both 43e7a11f70 Allen and Diana db6d441815 are around.”
 
“Diana would b5027fb148 definitely agree.”
 
“Hmm, that…”
 
She chuckled ad1e470a97 as if 8a85626a1a the Duchess c57a89ed66 also approved.
 
“But even if we 14e0d1b455 were all good… I b03b10a2f8 don’t know.”
 
“I understand what d952dd9ae4 you mean.”
 
The Duke, who 4b0d83e895 had lost his 67edcbbfd8 temper, nodded his b21b1d85b7 head.
 
“More than that, db89129f0b Lucio is surprising, cae710aac1 isn’t he?”
 
“What?”
 
“That is… I thought ff24c187db you and Helen were 54f91e3e71 very friendly.”
 
“I guess you 8111232000 weren’t just being b965bdcf82 ridiculously jealous?”
 
The Duchess rolled her 2fc7926681 eyes as the duke ad900428d6 laughed mischievously at her. The Duke laughed and d428cff701 shook her head.
 
“It seems cad207599d like I’m 8964d22e11 trying my 1996d5d33a best on 8652175458 you these 3564272b69 days.”
 
The Duchess’ 259fe25955 expression immediately 1f4498c1d2 cleared up 8aa84e9dc2 at those 9422e15390 words and 5a5b5cd4e1 she smiled.
 
“That’s right. She suddenly asked me 2b0cdc1757 to have tea time 1141917170 and she surprised me a3586c8934 by coming to visit. Did you see it ec55e7f294 before? Worrying that I 3bc14e4e6a might have a c3639b9c7a hard time…”
 
“Hmm.”
 
“I thought he 9572117c42 was just as 7a0f3d403b indifferent as you, 3b0024c3bf but he has cce70e7e0d a kinder side 544b8b3ae7 than I thought.”
 
“Am I indifferent? No way.”
 
Seeing the Duke fa85d9cd7b denying her with 8b5c596048 a frown, the 9bb715c2f0 Duchess burst into 43a07e7a5b laughter as if 09a1e46e00 she were dumbfounded.
 
* * *
 
I think 5c9845cad0 I closed 80d216c383 my eyes 878d04ed9e for a 6592125251 moment and 2b1723e153 then opened 28e7e83fff them, but 9f47f4db0f it looks eb6c94a97a like it’s ac0c993474 already afternoon. I blinked and looked f9ba86aa35 at each person in 64c4405c3b the room. Allen and Diana came 98f31157a6 after finishing their meal. And Jack and Taze 0e54f5562b in their training uniforms. hen I found the 2d5f66d537 maids standing in front fefcdfc70d of the open door. When they made bbebec0482 eye contact with 68b44245b8 me, they lowered a2627a4f9b their heads. It was ee7b14772e time to aa271e7dfc roll my ff27d9e2b2 eyes in f4e35eb6c2 shame.
 
“Lia, are you a6bd42c883 feeling okay? Last night, I happened d3a2e7df05 to be patrolling with ab64d6cb5a the capital guards… If 990814e709 Jack hadn’t told me, a3ec7f3127 I wouldn’t have even 6a54a3e4ec known you were sick.”
 
Taiz drooped his aa8adaf8c0 eyebrows and said 3bfbd883d4 gloomily.
 
“I had no idea 8e8bbe8f56 it was about you d39124bb9c even though the wizards bab3de42de and lawmakers were making 78f2581918 noise outside.”
 
“…Wizard and council members, b4ffe0149d why?”
 
Could it be that 3a6e2cccd4 they are gossiping about 8e1f878721 me and saying that fd22b0971f they were bothering me bb58c6a6e9 last night? I had finally escaped 12b7340608 the harassment from the c51e1291bd employees, but I was 9b46f7c29d scared, wondering if a 47e1fd961b new evil eye had 1fe3ca8f4d struck me.
 
“Haha. That’s why they ff91aab149 were fighting to f1ab07badd make you their 4ea3659f66 disciple.”
 
Taise said 2b57bfbe28 with her 2fd798c059 bright smile.
 
“The wizards 5e9de0ddfe say you 106a560d7b will become 461bb02f14 a great 1b8a82da92 wizard who 281aa96bf5 will surprise 548c14c580 the world 078a75e0f7 in the 102ef84676 future, and 8d1afa3c36 the lawmakers 2007ab837f say you 7e7527a594 will definitely a209a2cdd0 become a d9650b70e3 legislator who 9ed8c2ddc6 will save 82169f3295 countless lives. After all, you c18a816a23 are my benefactor. amazing.”
 
My cheeks turned a600302ed1 red before I 2683aaafca could help them 6d4230be9f at the unexpected 42080b19ab words. Out of embarrassment, b523806543 I noticed Diana’s c3966909b9 cheeks twitching as 8a151065d9 she lifted her 4597c675d8 chin and smiled a3377bdb9b next to me ceb9baa19b as if she f94792a49e had just heard d89fed3311 a compliment.
 
“Haa. This is something f283e952be that not everyone 2cf1716810 knows. Lia needs to learn 1ecde4edf5 how to use a 6a705e0688 sword.”
