Chapter 111.2

‘The novel said that he had a soft character.’

Just like Lydia, who is kind to the whole world, so is Karion smiling and wishing well to everyone. However, Karion in front of Yurina seemed to be a completely different person than the same Karion he was in the novel upon his return from the academy.

Could it be that her personality has changed because she didn’t go to the academy and only stayed in the De Flon estate?

She didn’t believe him when he apologized at the hunting tournament for saying it was because he used space separation magic and wasn’t familiar with the manners of nobles.

But looking at it now, she thought maybe it was because he really wasn’t used to manners.

‘Though it’s a bit funny when I think about it.’

As Yurina continued to stare at Karion, Raynard, who was sitting next to her, suddenly coughed. She grabbed his hand under the table and let go immediately.

“Did you say you had something to tell me last time?”

Karion’s eyes slightly widened, as if her words were somewhat surprising. It was a minor difference, but since he was a person who did not change his expression so much, even the slightest change was noticeable.

“Yes.”

“Can I hear it today? I also have a personal question.”

Karion’s gaze slowly turned to Reynard. Before he started to broadcast, Yurina added quickly.

“Ray will also listen.”

“…”

“I won’t listen to anything Ray can’t hear, so I’ll decline to ask you to leave.”

To be honest, Yurina was at a loss as to what choice he would make. He was a man who suddenly used space separation magic to say he wanted to have a conversation. He wanted to keep secret to that extent, but will he reveal his true feelings in front of Ray?

‘I can’t help it if he doesn’t…’

But, to put her worries to shame, he soon opened his mouth.

“It’s a story where there’s nothing he shouldn’t hear.”

“Then can I hear you? Apparently, Ray can listen to it, but I thinks it’s a story that lady De Flon shouldn’t hear, but let’s finish it quickly before Lady De Flon returns.”

Lydia will be a little late. Before she came to her mansion today, Yurina had already asked Betsy to wait some time in case Lydia was away for a while. Betsy was puzzled but nodded and asked to leave it to her. Yurina could believe it because Betsy promised it.

“Then, on the day of the hunting competition, you asked me if I had seen you before, right? Is there a story related to that?”

Karion nodded silently.

“As I said then, I saw you for the first time that day. I first learned about the fact that I am a wizard sponsored by the De Flon family and that I am Blessed, like Ray, at Ray’s knight inauguration ceremony not too long ago.”

“Yes.”

“Then why did you think I’d ever met you? I heard from Lady De Flon that you’ve been living in the De Flon estate all along, but I’ve never been there.”

As if his throat was burning, Karion drank the tea in a cup and opened his mouth again.

“I saw a young lady in a dream.”

In an instant, Reynard’s hand, which held Yurina’s arm under the table, tensed up.

“It was such a vivid dream that even when I woke up, I couldn’t realize whether it was a dream or reality. But I was surprised to see Lady Carthia, who looked exactly like the stranger in my dream. So I asked if we had seen each other before, wondering why I could have had such a vivid dream.”

“I can’t remember my dreams, even right after waking up. But how did you know that the person in the dream is me? Besides, how can you be sure that the face in the dream is exactly the same as mine? Memories do not remain as they were. I often remember it by transforming it the way I want.”

Karion firmly shook his head.

“For once, you might think so. However, I have dreamed of the young lady many times.”

Yurina looked at his expression to see if it was true or if it was Marquis De Flon’s idea. However, his expression didn’t show any sign of the agitation.

‘If it’s not a lie, why would Karion dream of me?’

Is this some kind of deja vu? Then Yurina asked again, thinking that the content of the dream might be important.

“You wouldn’t have wanted to meet me just because you saw me in a dream. What kind of dream was it that made you keep trying to meet me?”

Karion gave Reynard a glance and then opened his mouth.

“The young lady sponsored me.”
