Chapter 9. Spring of the Goddess Agrita
On the day in the kingdom, Gyerg suffered twice.
First, caught the runaway queen.
Next, to take me, Ash and other people back to the mansion quickly and easily.
In fact, the former task is not really suffering, and the real raw struggle seemed to have been the latter.
At that time, I heard Gyerg mutter while drawing a multi-movement magic circle on the ground.
âThis is the exploitation of labourâ¦â¦Iâm sure Iâll file a complaintâ¦.â
ââ¦â¦â
To where?
In any case, it was easy to catch The Queen, but it seemed difficult to take several people to travel long distances through movement magic.
After completing the movement magic, I was able to see the walking of the newborn baby deer that I only listened to.
Gyerg staggered at a precarious step, where it was easy not to fall, and said with a white pale face as if his blood had been sucked off.
âLet, let me take a rest. for a minute Just until I replenished my mana back.â¦.â
In front of the house, he said, â If you donât want to get rid of the corpse of a familiar half-demon, let me take a rest.â
So Gyerg temporarily became a family member of the mansion.
The horns on his forehead were able to conceal. When only the horns were covered, Gyerg looked just like a human being.
The people of the mansion welcomed me back with some stranger.
In fact, they didnât seem very interested in Gyerg.
Their interests were concentrated on something else.
And it came upon me the next day, it hit me scarily to release my accumulated secret.
âMy lady, tell me now.â
Inside of a multi-purpose room back on the first floor with a fireplace.
Bessie, who had me half forced into a spacious and warm room, stood with a lot of force in her eyes.
Next to her stood the butler and Alex side by side.
After that, several maids took their seats, apparently following them with similar questions.
Alex stepped forward to help Bessie.
âThatâs right. You promised to explain everything when you got back. Weâve been waiting for that. Why would I have such a midsummer night dream? No, I need to say it as a midwinter daydream, right?â
âYou were drunk in your dreams.â
Did he mean the dream when he became Ashâs face for half a day?
I almost burst into laughter, so I covered it with a false cough. Bessie said again.
âMy lady, what the hell was happening? Why did you have to go to the kingdom, and why did the count keep coming to the mansion?â
âUmâ¦â¦..â
It was me who left the mansion saying that I would explain them all in detail when I got back.
It has come. Itâs inevitable, and itâs something I didnât even try to avoid anyway. I opened my mouth after a short thought.
âCan you call all the people in the mansion here?â
The multi-purpose room was larger and spacious than I thought.
This is because it has accommodated all of these people.
I looked around the face of the people who filled the room.
Some of them had a puzzled face, holding kitchen tools or garden shears in their hands, whether they were brought in while working.
In the case of the knights, they were seen wearing towels on their shoulders or failing to disarm their uniform after training.
âFirst of allâ¦â
I tried to make eye contact one by one, but I realized that there were too many faces hidden from the person in front of me, so I immediately started the story.
âThereâs something I want to tell everyone.â
I was nervous to speak, but there was no hesitation in my voice more than I thought.
âIn fact, Iâm not the blood of this family. Iâm an adoptee.â
âLady!â
Bessie called me like a startled cry as if sheâs upset. Her big eyes look like theyâre going to dropâ¦
I smiled bitterly with a little bit of sorry and regret then opened my mouth again.
âItâs too sudden, isnât it? Youâll be surprised and embarrassed. Iâm sorry, Iâve been hiding it too long, and talking about it just now..â
âLady, nowâ¦â¦.â
âIâve been to the kingdom recently because of my origin.â
Bessie, who was trying to say something, shut up when the story came out.
Maybe itâs because she didnât even know about it.
I continued without delay.
âI was the princess of the kingdom.â
âYes?â
âPrincess?â
âWere you a royal family member?â
At that moment, there was a sudden disturbance in the quiet room.
I was startled by the sudden uproar because I thought the reason they had just been commissioned was that they were shocked by my bombshell announcement.
The multi-purpose room buzzed.
âPrincess, so weâve been taking a royal princess all this time?â
âItâs magnificent.â
âWeâre servants and maids who serve royalty.â
âI didnât know I did work as a maid of the royal princess.â
âDidnât you say not everyone can be a maid?â
âSomehow, Iâm flattered.â
I blinked my eyes. Somehow this was an unexpected reaction.
While staring blankly at the noisy crowd, someone raised their hand from the gap.
âWell, lady. No, princess. So youâre going back to the kingdom now? Are you going to leave here?â
âOh, noâ¦â¦..I donât think so. Iâve been to the kingdom to solve it in the first place.â
âThat means youâre staying in the mansion as youâve been?â
âYes.â
I see the servant who nodded his head lowered his hand.
Then he began to chat again with the person next to him. And the chatter was no different from the uproar a little while ago.
Likeâ¦.. She was a princess. Wow. We were supporting the royal family. and so on
I was dumbfounded. I couldnât bear to look at the favourable responses of their insignificance and lightness.
âWell, wasnât everyone surprised?â
âIâm surprised you were a princess. But somehow it suits you the best.â
âThatâs right, thatâs right.â
âI felt like you were like a princess since before. The princess in the story is all beautiful.â
âHoney, you took this opportunity to flatter the lady, didnât you?â
âIs it that obvious?â
âAmazingly.â
âWell, I still have a long way to go.â
âNo⦠itâs not thatâ¦â¦.â
I was so embarrassed that I went to the point of stammering and quickly added.
âThat Iâm not a member of this familyâ¦.â
âThat thing? It was a surprise, butâ¦â¦.â
âIs it important?â
âThatâs right. You said youâre going to keep staying here anyway. So isnât it the same as before?â
Right? They looked at each other as if seeking consent. The sound of âyesâ and âyesâ came from all over the place.
I glanced away at the domino-like scene.
âDo all of you think so too, Sir?â
The knights were a little behind the servants and the maids. They shrugged their shoulders when they received the attention.
âItâs not the princess we have here, itâs the lady of the family. Thatâs all I can explain because Iâm not very eloquent, but thatâs it is.â
âI agree.â
âI think so, too.â
âNo one would try turning back my word and trying to say something.â
âWhat can we do when our words are just at this level?â
The knightsâ answers ended there.
I closed my mouth. It was because I had nothing more to say. And then someone raised their hand again.
âExcuse me, my lady.â
It was a young maid with laundry.
âThen may I go back to the laundryâ¦â¦?â
Her clear eyes blinked blankly. I looked at it and then nodded.
***
âLady.â
Sitting on the garden bench, Sir Davery spoke.
I answered back without turning my head.
âWhy?â
âYou look upset, so Iâm here to talk to you.â
âItâs not that Iâm upset, justâ¦â¦â
I crossed my eyes and glanced around without lowering my arms across the backrest. I sighed soon
âYes. I think it was quite a bomb declaration from me. I donât know that nothing will pass, so Iâm a bit embarrassed. Should I say itâs an unexpected reaction.
In other words, it took me a lot of determination and a lot of preparation.
Starting with a young maid who wanted to finish the laundry, the place quickly dispersed.
The servants and maid walked out of the multi-purpose room to do what theyâve been doing.
Even the knights were away to continue their had-not-to-be training.
I came out like a low tide after telling the butler, Bessie, and Alex what I had done in a deeper, self-inflicted kingdom.
And now.
I looked up at Sir Davery, who was not there but had already been told.
Lord Davery seemed to pick a horse for a moment, then opened his mouth.
âIâm sure itâs a natural result.â
âSure?â
âFor the short-term employee, who does only the given work and rarely meets the employer properly, will have nothing to do with whether the owner is not of this family lineage or even a person fromâ¦.â
ââ¦â¦.â
Is that so?
I think so, too. It may be a little embarrassing, but if it doesnât have any problems with my salary, I wouldnât care about the secret of the presidentâs birth.â¦.
No, itâs not a big deal. What do I really know?
Realizing it, Sir Daveryâs words followed.
âThe employee who served you close enough to create a friendly feeling does not change just because you are from a different place. It doesnât matter for them.â
ââ¦â¦â¦â
âSo it turns out to be nothing.â
I listened silently and raised my head. Then asked abruptly.
âThen how about you, Sir?â
âââââ
