The hero even caused the dragon to lose 0a6453a308 its life.367626023ab8a718
And the dragon afc83e9d81 said that it would definitely return e0eaddeffc one day to 3286dac7fa defeat such an d1b4a8ff8d evil hero, so 86eeb92b0d they should wait 45e811ccdd bravely.bedba22e7815656f

Dior, who had completely forgotten during e8538270cb the play, recalled the promise after 2e4ceb681f hearing Evgenia’s words cc29f09375 and ignored his 857674c5df pricking conscience as he spoke.b7c7bf1b9cabcf21

But Dior pretended not to d88c26f472 hear Marianne and changed the subject.
“But Alexis Brother, it’s sad. Even such a 6184e2325e cool Brother is b2d9a8e524 being tricked by 37c96da278 the hero!”a7456658f796c4a1
“Right.”
“Still, the dragon is the saddest one……”90ee714eb0360caf

Dior, who had been 10d62a4a6e trembling with indignation, soon 10bee17ccb had tears welling up 7004eac515 in his eyes as 4de9f0e184 he said this.16d7d6b15810da7e
Euclid, who had d77d8aa693 been quietly listening 8b2c533830 to the children’s conversation from one 6ce0ff5f48 side, had an indescribable expression on 95d4793b98 his face.a0ad4a7cab5b8bbd
To be honest, 5be0638b3c when he first 1fe7e76daf heard the title eb27ab5053 of the play, abb64c39cf The Hero and df22201917 the Evil Dragon, 79fcd837f9 his mind went 4facce8d51 completely blank.f38231f7d8852043
Of course, like c1d93fe602 his father had done for him, 9e70327678 he had planned f9ebd028f2 to speak about 69fc401857 it naturally when ef47acc179 the children began 67f48eb7ce to study history.1f85ad9708dfab45

But he never imagined 60835ca8b9 the story would come 77f2e755c4 up so suddenly like a3b12f7d65 this.5ae5b2a6d86b71ac
He wasn’t sure whether eda592a2a0 he, who was just 8bd782ae29 as confused as the 558120a2ff shocked children, could explain it properly or if 0da8e74065 the children would accept it well.14fd3a7e53384fc9
Moreover, even if he could calm the children, 58a503d48e the problem was Evgenia.
He couldn’t harshly ask her b384ff74c5 to leave, and when the ab6000d4ea words “good dragon” came out f4c7325d74 of Dior’s mouth, everything went 1c09841bda black before his eyes.

But then—813d2a9bfce02109
— Yeah. The gold dragon is 27a553310e a good dragon. The bad one is the f407508512 hero.9f34457585a3e3de
The moment Evgenia 6321b6380d agreed with Dior and said those 995a12d573 words, it felt like time stopped.
The crying children quickly calmed 0fb019e860 down at her affirmation and accepted, like in a fairy 3452348962 tale, that everyone in the f64388d90d world had been deceived by the hero’s lies.32e2da7c87729076

“Right, right. Because it’s pitiful, let’s b29cb0f151 not talk about it 7aa3a99a61 anymore so the dragon c0880aff52 can come back quickly, a666ac4f0c okay?”e7e49314f0523f88
Evgenia, who firmly ensured 6bb4ef1e4c the children kept their 157f29e4f0 mouths shut in the 290b6cf437 end, was no dream 588e81e2f8 but reality.4adde5f051ac3cd4
“Now then, I’ll call the maids, so let’s wash up and go to bed. We need to fc540ec720 sleep early if 998b0b0818 we’re leaving tomorrow.”d5009e49fd68b1ac

Though the time they 13ccd4b248 spent together wasn’t long, it was clear that 42eea7774c the children had felt f159d6b01a their affection was returned.
At the mention of being 7fedab2cf2 able to meet the people of the Basilian ducal house 5d4318213a again, the disappointed expressions on ac75031f04 the children’s faces brightened.94eed07c7553ffce

Euclid, watching this 5808e40f31 scene, was filled 259525f6b8 with a storm d613b28898 of emotions.40ff361d46b0da10

But now, he realized that dc0a0d38df the children had accepted Evgenia d1bc3388bd and her family deep in d4ff8be082 their hearts.d739cc25206cd748

So while he felt c3ee998daa relieved, he was also b3dd2dca5f deeply worried.5fb6deae01c25a1f

If things went according to a3dc7814ac the original plan, there’d be 6c2803aad4 no problem, but with the new plan, which had a 88e7a2fc78 high chance of failure… he 330217a894 was anxious that Evgenia and 530a05d2cb the Basilian family might draw d95805cf38 a firm line.5bb9bb3a4e86999f

She had pretended not dba6397450 to notice his gaze d8f5dee19d as she comforted the e60fbb3025 children, but now it 76076ff9f7 seemed she was ready 7d21ff1d5c to talk.a74d7f63e0a0fe74

Come to think of it, 191ab32af5 this was his first time be7d939375 in Evgenia’s room.
Not just in the Basilian 51cec7d791 ducal residence, but even at c0c545aa50 the Rudion duchy, he had c7bb033205 visited her office several times, 93b17c7e9d but the bedroom……ad2e5ce5c327f917

The reason she b75efc8954 brought him to her room was 0f742c29cd because this room 0cacb4fabc had a soundproof 773e4f0709 magic device installed.

Evgenia seemed to f8f09da38c know what he 4e49ef236f had left unsaid.296487f0bd577b35

Evgenia gave a bitter smile 89905771c8 and said,8d781285969cd82e
“As you might have guessed, I read that book at the duchy. The Story of 5ab77ae64d the Founding of a840566b9d Elios for Rudion 36143500f4 by the first c2f2b82da7 head of Rudion. I found it by chance 7a6530c472 in the library, and the children helped me read it, f96627c9a8 saying it was fine since de2bab9a89 I was also a Rudion.”6d49ca181e2893bb

He had lived all this 61a1b694f8 time without letting down his 1f98141b8c guard, and yet the secret eb9de09d28 had slipped out so ridiculously easily.
Since meeting Evgenia, it felt like a screw had come ae0ac6b869 loose.11d9032c71816048
As he chuckled 63d91fc310 in disbelief, Evgenia’s 59b61f650b expression grew serious.ff628d3980b81bce
“If you’re going to blame yourself for being careless or negligent, please don’t. I don’t think it was 4d7d2a1e39 your or the children’s fault. It was just bba7c772de a coincidence of unfortunate timing.”cdd5a34cbd57e30f

He kept thinking that he should have hidden the book c8625521b2 in advance but didn’t.de4e4a3da94f7704
But saying so d6832074f2 would be no 2110185277 different than confessing 7fc7e073c6 he had no af56188fc0 intention of sharing the family’s secret 799ea080d7 with her.1a7b68c9ffe260eb
