52 – Request

The time when the sun passed overhead, Eldrina’s residence.

“Mother, mother!”

After training. After taking a quick shower, Siriel went straight to Eldrina.

“hmm? Why did my baby come to visit me? “The etiquette teacher would have decided to come visit us after the training session.”

Eldrina smiled at Siriel, who also ran towards Odo.

No matter how hurried he was, Siriel’s hair was still wet. Normally, she would have been properly managed by the maids, but she was in a hurry because the tutor was supposed to come after training.

“…There is still time left, so it’s okay!”

Siriel glanced at the grandfather clock on the wall and said. There were still 30 minutes left, which was plenty of time to talk about the matter.

“okay. Let’s dry the hair first. Sit here.”

Eldrina pointed to the chair and said. Then she recited a small incantation, creating a warm and quiet wind. Siriel’s face was relieved by the warm energy.

However, as soon as he recalled the purpose of meeting Eldrina, Siriel’s eyes sharpened and his fists clenched.

“mother. “I have a favor to ask.”

“…What request?”

Eldrina said to Siriel with a warm smile.

Normally, the report would have gone to Eldrina through the head butler, but this was the first time in several years that Siriel had asked her directly, so I was curious about how important the request was.

When permission was given, Siriel turned to her and spoke strongly.

“I hope the employees will stop gossiping about Siron oppa!”

“……?”

Eldrina paused for a moment.

My daughter’s request was so unexpected that the smile on my face almost wavered.

‘Is this the request that Siriel came directly to me?’

“Hmm.”

Eldrina cleared her expression by clearing her throat and spoke firmly.

“No.”

“…Why?”

Instead of whining at Eldrina’s firm refusal, Siriel asked a question. Eldrina’s heart almost broke at the sight of that extraordinary appearance, but she managed to gather her will to refuse.

Eldrina, who wanted to be an ideal wife and mother, stroked her lovely daughter’s head a few times and spoke kindly.

“Does Siriel know how many people use this mansion?”

“…I don’t know exactly, but I know there are a lot of them.”

“334 people, even more if you include the escort knights. From what I heard from Philip, many of them were cautioned for gossiping about Siron. “Every single report is sent to this mother.”

“…”

Siriel opened her eyes wide. Her mother had already figured out the whole situation.

“Think about it, why does this mother tolerate this situation?”

In this way, Eldrina gave Siriel time to think about when a problem arose.

In order to resolve a given situation, deep consideration is required. Eldrina wanted to make Siriel a habit of finding her own way in situations where there was no right answer.

Siriel crossed her arms and tilted her head a few times before opening her mouth.

“Does your mother hate Siron?”

“……oh. Does my baby look like someone I would hate?”

“sorry. But other than that, I can’t think of any other reason…”

Eldrina sighed a little when she saw Siriel’s downcast appearance.

“It should be possible to shut them up, but…”

“but?”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s money or loyalty, they’re the people I gathered by distributing notices in this mansion. They are not slaves who unconditionally obey orders, but each has his own thoughts and feelings. Perhaps, shutting their mouths will lead to another feud. Maybe firing them won’t change the situation because the cause remains the same.”

Eldrina speaks calmly.

Siriel slowly raised her head and gazed at Eldrina.

“So, does your mother think there is a problem with my brother?”

“That’s right. “Does my daughter know the reason why workers gossip about Shiron?”

“…I heard a rumor that my brother is treating them poorly.”

“You know very well.”

“So, is it true that your brother treats the employees badly?”

Siriel opened her eyes wide and looked at Eldrina. Eldrina nodded slowly.

“The people who occupy the mansion are educated people, even by the average of the ecliptic. There is no reason to belittle others for something that has nothing to do with you. “It’s just the gossip of a master who is mean to himself… I can do it.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Then… why is Siron so mean to the employees? Shiron oppa is not that kind of person…”

Siriel held the hem of her skirt tightly and lowered her head.

can not understand.

To her, Siron is a good older brother who always gives her delicious candy. Why is it that my brother treats others so poorly?

“Hmm…”

Eldrina snorted as if she saw something interesting.

“What made you think I wasn’t that kind of person?”

“…Because my brother is a good person who doesn’t know how to be jealous.”

“jealousy?”

“yes.”

Siriel nodded once.

There was no hesitation in her answer as she was stating a fact that there was no need to doubt.

‘My brother is kind and kind.’

Last time, Siriel was the first to brag to him about being able to wear a self-defense device.

At that time, Siron praised Siriel, saying she was amazing. Not only did they give me candy, but I also gave them cookies and patted their heads.

Something sweeter than the sense of accomplishment from training filled her heart.

but,

Only later that night did Siriel realize that she had made a mistake. I didn’t realize it when I actually received the praise, but in front of him who couldn’t handle mana, I ended up bragging about using what he didn’t have.

Siriel, who belatedly realized her mistake, was not able to apologize to Siron in tears until the next day. Siron said it was okay and put some candy in his mouth.

‘My brother comforted me by telling me not to worry.’

In fact, Siron even asked me to tell him whenever I have an achievement from now on. They say that the stronger she gets, the more confident she becomes…

‘My brother even lied on purpose because he was afraid I would be embarrassed…’

Sometimes, there were times when Siriel envied Lucia and felt petty.

Siriel, who had never been able to defeat Lucia, who took less elixirs than her and started training later, felt like her mind was becoming clouded.

I was angry.

Is this the feeling of jealousy?

When Siriel expressed her anger, John spoke.

It’s the will of heaven. I have no choice but to work harder.

Hugo, like her father.

Poetry does not feel such universal emotions.

In fact, his smile, happier than mine, seemed genuine and shined.

“then. Let’s do it this way.”

Eldrina smiled brightly at Siriel, who spoke with shining eyes.

“How about meeting Siriel in person? It would be good to ask why Shiron acted like that. Furthermore, you could solve his problems.”

“Me?”

“okay.”

Eldrina nodded.

A child who is not yet ten years old. Eldrina saw a familiar emotion flash in Siriel’s eyes. This little girl had eyes that she had seen on many women.

‘You’re in love with that rambunctious little boy.’

Eldrina chuckled.

Even though she knew that her daughter had fallen for a boy, she didn’t feel uncomfortable.

Was the child Shiron brought by her husband the legitimate son of the Prien family? Then this situation is not bad.

When I met him face to face, there was nothing particularly angular about the child.

‘I have a pulpit, and I know how to use my brain.’

Eldrina snorted as she saw the rumors spreading in the mansion.

‘However, I haven’t gotten out of the frame of a child yet. You can’t fool me with such clumsy acting. It’s the same if you look at the way he treats people and acts kindly.’

Suddenly, Eldrina had such a thought.

How about making a relationship between Siriel and Shiron? Like Hugo and Eldrina, Ciriel and Chiron seemed to get along well.

Siriel of the outer son, Shiron of the inner son.

What are the benefits to be gained from this?

The answer came so easily.

Siriel could be a direct descendant of her husband’s family, Prien. It goes without saying that grandsons and granddaughters will be Prien’s direct descendants.

It’s not bad.

Rather good.

My daughter doesn’t seem to have noticed that it’s love yet, but what is it anyway? There was nothing to lose if the two didn’t get along and just became friends.

Eldrina decided to support Siriel.

“That, that… I want my brother…”

Siriel wiggled her fingers and pursed her lips. I was happy in my heart. My heart skipped a beat at the opportunity to be of help to my favorite brother.

However, anxiety crossed Siriel’s face again.

“…By the way, will my brother want my help? What if I get rejected?”

It is natural to have doubts. Siriel had never done or bestowed anything on Chiron. Besides, didn’t he make another mistake the other day? Siriel couldn’t believe her narration.

“…I’m afraid that my relationship with my brother will be ruined because of a mistake.”

Eldrina felt her heart tickle when she saw her daughter’s expression change rapidly.

“Then come back then. As you believe, if you are a good-hearted person who doesn’t know anything about jealousy, there will never be a case where a child makes a few slips of the tongue to form an emotional trough that will never be filled up for the rest of your life…”

“…Thinking about it, I think Mother is right.”

Siriel recalled the time when she made a big mistake with Siron. Even when I made a mistake in the carriage after the succession ceremony, Siron apologized and let me go.

Siriel thought for a moment and then smiled brightly.

“I’ll give it a try!”

After saying that, Siriel looked at her watch and was startled.

4:05.

I ended up being late for etiquette class.

Siriel hurriedly ran out of the room.
