Chapter.41 Oblivion
“What should I do with this?”
“I know?”
Just by looking at its condition, it was clear that they had broken the pottery. Of course, it wasn’t for the girl to go out, so she watched the scene from a distance in the hallway.
The boys mumbled something and then started saying something as if they had a good idea.
“Why don’t we say that Dieran broke this?”
“Really? “You always nag us so irritatingly, so it’s okay to get revenge like this, right?”
“You brats! “What is this?”
In that situation, the chamberlain came up from the first floor, and the boys pretended to cry and pointed upward with their fingers.
“Dieran woke up and ran away!”
“You told us to tell you that you’re awake... .”
“Hey, what if I tell you that!”
As he spoke while acting cleverly, the chamberlain looked at the boys with great difficulty.
“Is that true?”
If it were true, it would be a big deal. The master is the one who hates making mistakes like this and pushing them on others.
When it occurred to him that something big had happened to his little master, the chamberlain began to feel restless.
So they hesitated with embarrassed faces and the boys started crying as if they were going to call someone else.
“Aaaah!”
“this this... Young masters, you shouldn’t cry. “Please tell me the exact situation.”
“So Dieran woke up and ran away?”
“that... !”
The chamberlain frowned again. I thought there was nothing I could do since there were three witnesses, so I slumped my shoulders.
The girl was astonished. And I started to worry. No, there was nothing to worry about.
It is certain that those nobles have awakened. But Dieran is being punished? I thought that would never happen.
If it were another noble, it wouldn’t be possible, but if it was Dierran, it wouldn’t be possible. The girl clenched her fists.
No, even if it was Gray Boy who actually broke it, the girl’s feelings would not change.
The girl, who thought it was her duty to the Gray boy who had always helped her, ran to the chamberlain’s front.
“Wait!”
“huh? Isn’t it Sierra? “What’s going on?”
The chamberlain called out to the girl who suddenly appeared and asked. Of course, it wasn’t the time to pay attention to the girl right now, so my mind was thinking of other things.
“I broke that!”
As soon as the girl shouted that, the chamberlain immediately returned to reality.
“What does that mean?”
“What’s wrong? This is Dearan... .”
Then the boys frowned and responded.
But the girl did not lose. He began to speak impassionedly towards the chamberlain.
“no! sorry! That’s right, I broke it! “They are mistaken.”
Of course, the chamberlain began to straighten his face at those words.
The girl thought about the reason and came to a simple conclusion.
That’s right, that day, for the first time, the girl realized the feeling of liking someone.
***
Time passed like that.
Even when dark times came to the Gray family.
Because of that, even when Gray was frustrated, the girl sincerely became the boy’s companion. I had no desire or desire for anything more than a companionship.
And it is true that the driving force that allowed the Gray boy to endure until he met El, and the fact that Count Dedran did not give up his feelings for a good lord even when his family was on the verge of destruction, was due to the girl’s influence as well as his father to some extent.
Since I was young, I wanted to spread knowledge, so I often learned about lords from my father.
And at a time when Verna could not meet the boy, the boy became lonely. But he was not a loner.
It was because of the girl’s presence.
A child who always just smiled, listened to stories, and gave strength. Little by little, the boy was realizing its importance.
But that happiness didn’t last long.
Thanks to Count Dedran, who controlled the Gray family at the time, there was a large change in the number of employees working there, and as a result, the girl left for another count’s house in the capital.
Because of Count Dedran’s pressure policy, Grayk was completely unaware of this fact.
It was the girl who first heard about it.
I’m not that young anymore. If it were on Earth, I would have been a middle school student.
I was able to understand the atmosphere, and I also knew that the more I could understand it, the bigger the gap in status would be.
On the contrary, if anyone were to see her calling him brother, it would be a great harm to the Graik boy who was under the watchful eye of Count Dedran.
There was definitely a way to cling to the Gray boy and say that you didn’t want to leave.
She knew that doing so would cause more harm to the Gray boy, so she decided to leave the mansion without saying a word.
Brother.
A long time when I called His Excellency the Earl my brother.
‘I liked it. And when you grow up a little, your brother... I’m sure you can get through this. Because he is smarter than anyone else and is completely different from other nobles! If it were my brother who always spoke next to me about the way to serve the people.’
But at the same time, I wanted the Gray boy to remember something about me from time to time, so I foolishly wanted to leave a trace.
With the hope that he would later remember that such a child existed, the girl left a copper plate with her name engraved in the boy’s room and left the Earl of Gray’s house.
That was the small plate that Gray was holding now.
***
In fact, the Gray boy also always had a girl in mind as he grew up. When I was young, I thought of her as a younger sister, but as I got older, I began to develop feelings that were different from those I had toward my younger sister.
Since she wasn’t my real sister, it was a natural feeling in a way.
He had been close with him since he was young, and he always had a crush on the little girl who always listened to his boring political opinions with a smile, but also always supported him by his side, so it was natural for him to harbor any other feelings. will be.
But now it was all just a memory.
The Gray boy just sighed and put the board with the name ‘Sienna’ written on it back in the drawer.
Great Dieran is the lord of Gray City, who owns a huge business called the watch industry, and he has a lot of power, so finding a maid was actually not difficult.
However, the reason I just occasionally took out the copper plate and sighed was because I had already looked for it.
After El helped him defeat Count Dedran and regain his dignity as a lord, he of course searched to find her, but the answer he received was that she fell ill and died in the count’s house to which he had moved.
So what is the point of looking further?
The shock caused me to stop eating and drinking for a few days, so I eventually calmed down by sealing the small plate in a drawer.
‘Even if you don’t try to take it out, you end up taking it out.’
The Gray boy shook his head to shake off the vague memory and slammed the drawer shut.
