Can We Become a Family?

The next morning.

There were several lamps and candlesticks next to Navia.

Flip.

“Marking magic… it’s not this.”

Flip.

“Hm… it’s not this either.”

Navia turned the pages quickly and reread what she already knew, but as expected, there was nothing to refer to.

‘If not now, I don’t know when I will have time to look again…’

Because of that, she did take a nap, but she was so tired. Navia stretched and glanced at the book she had last looked at. It was a thin booklet with dark red leather on it.

<The Gods Of The Outside World>

Navia picked up the book.

“Do the regressions and the black moon have anything to do with this?”

In addition to the God that made up this world, there was an ‘external God.’ The book described the existence of the external God like this.

The external God is indifferent to human good and evil and considers human beings worthless.

Also, the external God is chaos itself and has the ability to break the laws of the world.

It means that the laws of this world, the rules of magic, are simply ignored. Magic is a great power, but life and death cannot be controlled. In this regard, regression is a force that does not follow the rules of the world, as it is an ability related to life and death.

‘If my ability really is the power of an external God, it’s even more strange.’

Now she even has the power to steal other people’s magic.

‘Maybe my biological parents have some secrets?’

Biological parents. Navia bit her lips without realizing it. It was said that she was dumped in a basket when she was a baby.

The only clue to who her biological parents were was one card with her name written on it. The one word ‘Navia’ was written in a beautiful handwriting.

‘It seems that they had the nerve to even name a child they were going to throw away.’

Navia’s eyes subsided coldly and soon continued to think as if she never had those thoughts.

In the last 20 years, there had been no one near the nursery with silver hair or red eyes.

‘The card was the only trace of my biological parents. As if they intended to isolate me completely.’

Wasn’t it because she was unnecessary in the first place?

‘If that’s the case, it’s understandable. .’

She had seen, heard, and experienced a lot of things in Agnes, where they easily crushed a child.

Navia left the library after arranging all the books. Her eyes looked as if she were immersed in a deep swamp.

There weren’t any special results, so she wasn’t able to leave in a good mood.

She was so sleepy she was even dreaming. Navia found Charlotte as she was walking.

“Did you stay up the whole night?”

“A little.”

Where in the world do people say you stayed up all night a little? Charlotte was very upset but spoke as if she was relieved.

“Sir Spencer took three days off for some reason, so there’s no class. Get some good sleep now, Miss.”

Navia found out that Edward took time off to cure his little sister’s illness.

“Aren’t you hungry?”

“Ah.”

Thinking about it, she couldn’t remember the lat time she ate properly because she was looking into the black moon.

Once she recognized her hunger, her flat stomach was filled with hunger.

“Can I have some warm soup?”

“Of course. I saw an apple in the kitchen yesterday and made juice from it this morning. I will bring it.

Apple juice?

Navia looked at Charlotte with a surprised look.

Apples were a fairly common fruit in the capital, but they were as precious as gold to Navia.

Nikan prevented Navia from eating sweet food saying things like ‘your habits will get bad if you taste them.’

“Miss?”

Navia’s cheeks blushed slightly as Charlotte waited for her answer curiously.

“Ah, yeah. Yes please.”

“What do you mean please. It’s my job to bring it to you.”

Charlotte smiled softly as she saw Navia become happy because of apple juice. But somehow, she felt sorry and proud at the same time.

‘I’ll bring a very big glass.’

Such juices and desserts weren’t allowed for Navia. That’s why she was going to steal some, but Charlotte was confident.

Her hands were very fast. She was skilled at stealing and replacing.

The kitchen will be cluttered with chefs and other servants, so there will be many opportunities.

‘Besides, it’s not time for the young master’s or Lady Vivian’s servants to work, so I should be able to bring enough.’

“Lie in bed and rest. I will be right back.”

Navia went into her bedroom after nodding and Charlotte headed to the kitchen humming.

Click.

When the kitchen door was opened, unwelcome people were seen.

“Oh my, Charlotte?”

Maki, Anne, and Laura. Vivian’s exclusive maids.

‘What are they doing at this hour?’

Charlotte looked at the three curiously. Did Vivian wake up early today?

She thought it was possible because it’s not impossible. But that wasn’t the only thing that was weird.

‘Where are all the chefs and servants?’

It’s a kitchen. The employees may have gone to take a rest after taking care of Nikan’s and the blood relatives’ meals, but it was strange that none of the kitchen servants were seen.

Like someone had intentionally left the kitchen empty. When Charlotte’s eyes went thin with some kind of foreboding, Maki spoke.

“Did you come here to prepare Lady Navia a meal?”

Charlotte knew that Maki wasn’t one to express interest in what she did, so she felt suspicious and responded bluntly.

“Yeah. It seems like you are busy doing the same, so don’t mind me and keep working.”

“…hmph.”

The two entered the mansion as workers almost at the same time.

Both of them worked well and were well-informed, allowing them to quickly advance to the position of the Princess’ exclusive maids. . The fate of the two divided there. One became the maid of the real Princess and the other became the maid of the fake Princess.

Charlotte had no intention of burying her bones here anyway, so she had no complaints. Rather, it was nice since Navia didn’t require much hands.

But Maki didn’t think so. She looked down on Charlotte, who served Navia.

“I envy Charlotte so mich. You’re going to be done preparing Lady Navia’s meal soon, right? We have a lot to carry, so it’s heavy.”

“Pft!”

Anne and Laura, who were by Maki’s side, couldn’t hold back their laughter as they watched Charlotte pour soup in a dish.

Charlotte put down the ladle and turned towards the three with cold eyes.

Maki gave an exaggerated reaction and spoke with a surprised look.

“Are you perhaps offended? It’s a joke! Haha.”

“…ha.”

Charlotte stopped while turning her head.

It was because Maki was holding a full glass of freshly squeezed apple juice.

Maki, who noticed, spoke deftly.

“Lady Vivian is so sweet that she also give us juice, so we’d better take plenty of it. Right, you two?”

“If our Lady Vivian doesn’t drink it, there wouldn’t be anyone else to drink it anyway, so we should take care of it all.”

“Ahaha!”

As their mockery went too far, Charlotte tried to refute with a tearful look, but held it back.

‘I was supposed to bring the Lady apple juice…’

At this rate, she didn’t know if they would empty the whole jar.

Charlotte’s insides were burning, but Maki took out several cups and filled them as if she was teasing her.

“There are five cups of juice. One for the Lady and three for us. Then there’s one left. What should we do?”

“……”

“Ah, has Lady Navia ever tried something called apple juice?”

Maki smiled and turned around, winking at Laura.

‘Put it in.’

Then Laura took out a small bottle of medicine from her pocket and quickly mixed the contents into the juice and hid the bottle back in her pocket.

With Maki and Anne blocking Laura’s small movements, Charlotte couldn’t see.

Maki picked up the glass and turned around again.

“Charlotte, give this to the Lady. It should be okay to bring her at least a glass secretly. If it becomes a problem, we’ll take care of it.”

Maki’s eyes glistened sneakily as she spoke.

“You have to ingratiate yourself with Lady Navia in advance. It will give you points later if she becomes the Empress. This is what society is like.”

On the surface, it was a plausible reason, but neither Maki nor Charlotte knew that Navia was nothing but a puppet.

Maki’s lips twisted.

‘We can’t let the fake who messed with us yesterday go.’

They were waiting for Charlotte to come and even deliberately got medicine for an upset stomach to retaliate against Navia.

“Here, take it.”

Maki put the juice mixed with stomach medicine on the plate containing Navia’s meal.
