CH 79

There had been a series of surprises today.

Damian looked at his little sister seriously.

She was obviously still a small and delicate child, but lately, she seemed to be more mature.

‘As expected, it must be strange. But it can’t be helped.’

It was no different for Siervian to find an information guild forcefully.

This was because she was worried about people with Harmin allergies dying one after another.

‘I’m sure there must be something.’

It might be just information that was accidentally revealed, as there were only five out of several cases. Even after trying to think like that, a strange anxiety lingered.

They must look into this matter.

“Yeah. A person named Delphi Borgir is the guild leader.”

Especially when Siervian was said to be allergic, the empress’ reaction was excessively surprising.

She still couldn’t figure out what was going on yet.

However, if this allergy was the key component of the Duke’s conspiracy, she needed to work quickly to respond.

“….”

Damian stared intently at his little sister and forgot to answer.

It seemed surprising that his little sister, who was still young, knew the name of the information guild leader.

Therefore, Siervian was very nervous and waited for her brother to talk.

“Siervian, if it’s not just a simple outing, I think you should explain the situation a little more.”

“….”

“Is it dangerous? Then you can’t just take two escorts with you. It would be different if I’m alone, but I can’t put you in danger.”

Siervian nodded as if she understood her brother’s concern.

So she quickly replied, “It’s not dangerous.”

The Justice Information Guild she knew had a special history.

Justice Guild was uniquely famous for the guild leader’s fair personality.

“There’s something Siervy needs to find out.”

At this point, the guild was not very popular, but soon it will become a top information guild thanks to its perfect work.

In the previous life, it had served as a savior for those who suffered injustice.

“How did you know about this information guild?”

“… I’ll tell you that later.”

Siervian gave up slightly even as she spoke. Her brother seemed to turn the carriage to the Imperial Palace and said it was impossible at any moment.

‘It would have been hard to believe.’

She shouldn’t have rushed to see her brother.

Her young body continued to act on impulse even though she was already seven years old.

Siervian lowered her head and wiggled her fingers.

“Siervian.”

Damian knelt on one knee and looked into Siervian’s face.

“Yeah, I’m sorry, Brother.”

When she apologized half crying, Damian quickly took his sister’s hand.

Siervian’s small hands were cold from nervousness.

So Damian soon decided.

“Will you explain later?”

Two identical blue eyes met.

Siervian bit her lip when she felt his trust.

[Damian Erveldotte]

Emotions: Faithful

Thoughts: Siervian is doing this for a reason. I have to trust my little sister as a brother.

Her gloomy feeling soon dissipated, and she began to shine brightly. Siervian unknowingly gave strength to their clasped hands.

“I know you have a problem. I’ll also believe it when you say it’s not dangerous.”

The Imperial family was forced to mature more quickly than their age would indicate, as circumstances around them constantly made it so.

Having experienced the situation firsthand, Damian guessed where Siervian got the information.

It may have been from the aristocrats who went in and out.

“But don’t forget that Father and I are always on your side, Siervian.”

“Yes!”

[Damian Erveldotte]

Thoughts: I have to check if the aristocrats are using young Siervian.

Rather than hastily telling her not to trust anyone, her brother chose to trust Siervian in this way.

Siervian discovered how much anxiety he had inside and nodded her head.

‘Sometimes I think it was really fortunate that I went back and got close to my brother.’

“Then, shall we go back to the information guild today? The Justice Guild is a bit far from the aristocratic commercial district, so it will take some time.”

“Yes!”

[Damian Erveldotte]

Thoughts: Anyway, I’m glad someone didn’t tell her a dangerous place. Justice Guild’s leader has a reputation for having a good personality.

Siervian was genuinely surprised while reading his thoughts.

It was still a few years before the Justice Guild would gain a great reputation. It would be just a small guild now, but it was surprising that her brother already knew the place’s location and information.

“Oh, I want to ask you a favor instead.”

“Yeah!”

Siervian shouted while clenching her fists firmly.

She would do everything she could for him because her brother trusted her.

“It’s…”

[Damian Erveldotte]

Emotions: Embarrassed

How difficult a request that her brother could not say for a long time?

Siervian grew nervous at the same time and waited for his words.

“Can I also call you by your nickname?”

“Huh?”

But what followed was really unexpected.

“I-I also want to call you by your nickname!”

Siervian opened her mouth when she saw her brother act his age for the first time.

It’s nothing compared to what he has done for her!

“You can!”

“R-really?”

[Damian Erveldotte]

Favorability: +100

Maybe he pretended to have conditions in case she felt burdened.

For a moment, her brother smiled very brightly.

[Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100]

While popping up colorful status windows.

“Siervy.”

“Yes!”

[Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100]

“Siervy!”

“Yes yes!”

[Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100] [Favorability: +100]

Siervian felt awkward because her brother loved it so much.

She would have asked him to call her by a nickname if she had known.

“You know, Siervy. Let’s go out to eat your favorite dessert next time.”

“Okay!”

“By the way, Siervy. Are you still wearing the ring Carmen gave you? I heard Father gave you an immunity ring.”

“Yes! Because it’s a gift.”

“I see… but, Siervy….”

After that, her brother excitedly called her nickname.

As if pitying himself that he hadn’t been able to call her that until now.

At first, Siervian was carried along with the excitement, but she was also slightly tired of the persistent nickname and favorable conditions.

“Cough cough. Your Highnesses, we have arrived.”

The carriage had been running without rest for a long time and finally stopped.

The escort carefully knocked at the carriage door and informed them that they had arrived at their destination.

He called to them in a whisper in order not to reveal their identities.

‘Fortunately, I have come this far without any problems.’

As Siervian expected, her brother seemed to know the exact location of the Justice Guild.

The experience of leaving the city with her father last time was all Siervian had, so she was a little nervous.

Siervian also felt like she was taking the most risk in her previous life and so far.

“Siervy, are you okay?”

“Yes! Siervy is fine.”

Unconsciously, she grabbed her brother’s hand as he sat next to her and spoke bravely.

Siervian had already come all the way to the information guild, and she was afraid her brother would ask her to return if he noticed that she was scared.

[Damian Erveldotte]

Thought: How cute…! My little sister is a mana fairy…!

Fortunately, he didn’t ask to leave.

The two escorts brought by her brother looked around skillfully and led them as if they were accustomed to this.

Worried about the empress’ spy, Siervian also examined their status windows.

‘You have a strong affinity for me. I can trust you, right?’

When she got out of the carriage, she saw a particularly old building in the aristocratic business district.

As if this was the best office for a small guild.

“Siervy, you’d better go in and reveal who we are.”

“Are you sure?”

It was only after hearing it that Siervian realized she had really come here without any measures.

She just came with a belief about the guild leader’s fair personality.

Siervian felt a little relieved as she could see the other person’s inner feelings through the status window.

“Justice Guild is small, but they aren’t lacking in skills. They might track where our wagon came from. It’s safer to reveal our identity.”

“I see…”

Even more so because she didn’t mean to do anything illegal.

Her brother also had a deep belief that Siervian didn’t come here for a bad purpose.

‘All right, let’s try it first.’

They climbed the old wooden stairs with their escorts in front and behind them.

No guard was standing at the building that looked very sloppy for an information guild. This was because the Justice Guild had taken the route of a ‘clean information guild’ from the beginning.

‘Thanks to that, it took a long time to settle at first.’

In particular, the Justice Guild leader was famous for being picky about work.

So, in the beginning, people didn’t see them in the aristocratic business area. When aristocrats sought information guilds, they usually wanted someone to handle dirty work.

“….”

Even though Siervian was the one who came up with this idea, her face gradually changed.

No matter how clean the information guilds were, this building was too sloppy. At the guild’s entrance, there was even a crude sign that said welcome.

‘… Will it be okay?’
