We thought he would be in the Chancellorâs office near Podere Palace, but we saw him in Solay Palace instead.
Of course, he was at my dadâs office.
Silvia also hesitated to interrupt this time, but I proudly opened the door to my fatherâs office. I would ignore all that!
âDad, Iâm here!â
âDaddy!â
My dad looked at me for a moment at the sound of my voice calling out to him, and then he just sighed. He made me feel strange again. Whatâs with the long face? I thought I knew something, but at the same time, I felt like I also didnât know much. Itâs that kind of weird feeling.
If he said that without even scolding me, then it made me think about what Dranste said.
Nah⦠heâs like this to everyone. Heâs not being kind to just meâ¦right?
My head was showing a troubled expression again and frowned. Because of that, Ferdel, who wisely stopped reporting, opened his eyes wide when he saw the twins behind me.
âOh, whatâs this? Are those my sons I see over there?â
âDaddy!â
Upon hearing Ferdelâs excited reaction, Valer ran towards him with the same excitement. However, Sanse, shamefully, never let go of Silviaâs skirt. He looked more like a girl in that way. Even now, Sanse was a shy lady enough.
âDaddy, look at this!â
âOh, thatâs my boy! You always look pretty no matter what youâre wearing!â
Ferdelâs mouth hung in his ear while smiling and holding Valer, who ran at him in his arms so did Valer, who boasted and was proud of himself. However, Ferdel was odd too for praising him so much about it.
Just as I thought, their whole family was far from ordinary. Then againâ¦I suppose our familyâs pretty out of the ordinary, too.
âWhat are they doing?â
Caitel frowned while Silvia was greeting him. It seemed that he got annoyed after seeing the boys dress in a womanâs clothes. Meanwhile, the boysâ father, Ferdel, was enjoying it so much. In response to the king asking what kind of craziness this is, I looked at him, showing my confusion as to what exactly is wrong here.
In my opinion, dadâs even worse than themâ¦
However, I didnât dare to talk this out of my mouth, haha!
One day I wanted to look straight at Caitelâs face and say it. Of course, I would only do that when I was ready to die. Oh, should I try it if I already wanted to kill myself? I thought itâs the fastest and most accurate way of leaving this world. I nodded, deciding I should try it later when I get drunk.
