The World Without My Sister Who Everyone Loved

No, so can I take that as an insult to me, too?

‘I’ve lived here for half my life before I died….’

Unable to say that, Sienna sighed again.

“You’re just sighing because you’re in such a gloomy place. Come on, let’s go.”

“Ah….”

“Today I must show you what a great place this castle is.”

No, I really do not want to know. I know most of the rooms already.

Is there anything else?

“Let’s go out and get some sunshine, have a good look around, and drive out the darkness.”

Mrs. Deborah took Sienna to the second floor hallway.

‘Ah.’

Sienna had a rough idea of where the head maid was taking her.

There was a simple exhibition room on the second floor of the castle.

“Of course, simplicity is based on Nacht, but…”

Grand Duke Nacht was also one of the richest men in the country. As he protected his territory, it naturally took up a lot of trades from the territory.

From grains that grow and take root in the soil, to many of the copper, iron, and gold treasures.

Nacht’s simple exhibition hall meant that the large corridor on the second floor of the castle contained portraits of the family’s ancestors. It also displayed various kinds of art as well as numerous medals. The exhibition even changes quarterly to match the theme.

“Originally, I was going to give you a formal tutor, but I’m not going to let you miss out on this family exhibition. Oh, my little Prince?”

Unfortunately, there were people in the exhibition room.

A boy whose cheeks are still round and big like a cat and whose eyes are slightly raised. It was Michael Nacht, the second son of the Grand Duke.

‘Oh, my God.’

Should we say hello?

But she and Michael had never been on good terms before. More precisely, Michael unilaterally hated Sienna.

Her worries did not last long. Sienna grabbed Mrs. Deborah’s skirt and hid herself.

“My Lady? Say hello to the second young master.”

Sienna remained steadfast despite Mrs. Deborah persuasion. There was a reason.

Michael hates the weak. He has a habit of saying a few harsh words and leaving first when he is offended.

In other words, Sienna’s sudden pretense to be scared contained this meaning.

‘He’ll get mad and then disappear quickly.’

However, Michael’s reaction was not as expected.

“……Okay. You’re here to see the showroom, aren’t you?”

“Ah, yes, that’s right.”

“Then you can go now. I’ll show her around.”

“Yes?”

‘I’d hate that’

But Mrs. Deborah reacted faster than her.

“Good for you, Second Young Master is more qualified to be a guide than I am. All right, Miss.”

“Yeah, I am.”

“Then I’ll be on my way.”

Pushing Sienna to the young master, Mrs. Deborah left quickly after the brief greeting.

It was clear that she believed that they would become close if they were alone.

Anyways, it was too late. Without any time to do anything about it, Sienna was left in front of Michael, who blinked his pretty red eyes.

“Would you like to say hello?”

“It’s nice to meet you, Young Master.”

“…..”

Michael stared at Sienna with a glare, unable to understand what she was thinking. Sienna thought she would have been quite nervous if she was really eleven.

“Ye-.”

“Yes?”

“I advise you, don’t think about staying in this house for long.”

“…..”

I was wondering what you were going to say.

I could not feel hurt. It was the same as the past. He still hates me even in this unknown world.

‘It’s nice to see you again.’

Michael, looking at Sienna, questioned her with suspicion.

“Do you understand me?”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Sienna nodded mildly and kindly repeated it.

“You told me not to stay here for long.”

“If you understand, why didn’t you answer me with your opinion?”

“Well, that’s what I am thinking.”

“…..”

Michael opened his mouth with a straight face. Sienna realized one thing at this time.

‘Wait.’

This can be an opportunity to be comfortable with Michael.

We do not need to like each other, but we also do not need to be as unfriendly as we used to be.

‘I’m afraid I’ll bother you.’

Sienna decided to think about what Michael will like to hear. The answer would be found in the past.

Come to think of it, Michael hated me the most when I worked as hard on chores as if I am Loreina’s maid or a Nacht’s family maid.

‘You’ve been fed up with it, telling me not to let it show.’

He said exactly this.

“Why don’t you just get out of this house if you know you’re humble enough to take away the maid’s work?”

Then what I have to say is…

“Don’t worry. I know that being a child of Nacht is too great for an orphan like me. I’m going to apply to the academy when the time comes.”

“…What?”

“It means that I will go out and become self-reliant without embarrassing the Nacht’s name.”

Rather, it was quite the childish response, but it would make sense considering it was coming out of an 11 year olds mouth.

“I’ll be a little noticeable, but I’d appreciate it if you can ignore me until then.”

Sienna thought it would be close to the answer he wanted to hear.

But…

“You…!”

Unexpectedly, Michael’s face was upset.

“How could you say such nonsense? I can’t believe you want to get out of here!”

“Pardon?”

What are you talking about?

I didn’t say it in words, but the sentence “you’re the one who told me to get out?” was shown on my face.

“Ugh!”

Michael, who was not a fool, soon noticed his contradiction.

He turned red at that moment. Sienna tilted her head as she saw the colorful face turning blue.

‘What’s wrong with you?’

“Hey, let’s talk about this later.”

Sienna had nothing to talk about with him, even until ‘next time’.

However, it was not important to let him know, so she just nodded her head.

‘He’s offended anyways, so he’ll be out of here soon enough.’

That was what Sienna expected. But Michael did not leave.

“…Young Lord?”

“……Follow me.”

“Err yes?”

No, why the hell?

Thanks to the distracting items in the exhibition room, Michael didn’t see the look of annoyance on Sienna’s face.

“I made a promise to the maid to show you around here!”

“You don’t have to…”

Should I have him continue? Sienna was in a bind. So she decided to throw a fastball.

“You don’t like me, do you?”

Let’s get on our way, please.

“That’s…! Come on! I can’t be a man who doesn’t keep his word.”

“Hmm, that…”

Was that the problem? Sienna was convinced.

‘I’m bothered, but I can’t help it.’

Come to think of it, if Michael leaves right away, the head maid will ask what had happened.

It was entirely Sienna who will be at a disadvantage if it was revealed that she offended the young lord by messing around with words.

“You’re shameless.”

“…Follow me.”

“You can think of the portrait in this corridor as going back to the Nacht’s genealogy from the inside out.”

Obviously, he had come to hate Sienna as perfectly as before, but Michael’s explanation this time was very sincere.

“This is my grandmother. She is the sister of the present Emperor.”

When I think about it, it seems that Michael was the least flexible among the three men in this family.

“This is my great-grandfather, but two portraits are hung on it because they are two of…”

No, it wasn’t like ‘that’, it was definitely accurate.

‘If you think about it, the young lord has always pointed out all the things that just went over in history, and that’s true….’

I used to be a quiet and timid person, but at that time I couldn’t evaluate calmly because I was overwhelmed with luxuries.

Anyway, if I was the same Sienna in my first life, I probably would have listened to him even if I did not know what he meant, but it was a pity.

Sienna, who was scheduled to enter an academy at the age of 15 and finish her education at the end of that same year, only listened to Michael’s easy explanation with one ear.

Naturally, her eyes began to wander elsewhere, but not at the portraits.

‘Huh?’

Then, something shiny caught Sienna’s eye.
