Chapter 3People (2)
⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅
Eva was a small and delicate woman.
She was alone and an orphan but she didn't have a tough livelihood.
In fact, she was a popular romance novel author.
Her house was purchased with the money she earned from her books. Property in the capital was way more expensive than those in the other regions. So, from just her house it was obvious how popular her books were.
She submitted the manuscript today and was walking back home joyfully.
It was when she was a maid when she first wrote her book. Her masters were unusually kind noble people.
They always looked after their servants and even gave out fur clothes in winter.
They were such good people that she still contacted them even after her success.
To elaborate on how she started writing, Eva was actually illiterate but she learned how to read and write from the baroness. And the baroness's hobby was to read romance novels.
The baroness was a gentle and generous person.
She often asked the maids what they needed and gifted those.
So it was probably inevitable that she helped an illiterate maid learn how to read and write. She patiently taught Eva and initially, Eva was uncomfortable with her kindness but they soon got along.
And the teaching material the baroness used back then was a romance novel.
When Eva could read, the baroness recommended her novels to read and discussed them with Eva. Sometimes, they would even get mad about a fictional character together.
Then one day, Eva started writing her own book.
She was shy but she always went to the baroness first to show her crumpled manuscript.
The baroness was even more excited about Eva's manuscript than Eva herself. She complimented Eva's writing and encouraged Eva to write more.
Eva then started sleeping lesser to finish her manuscript.
And in a competition, which she no longer remembered the name, Eva won a gold award.
Eva remembered how happy the baroness and she were.
The baron stared at them wondering what was going on but when he found out that Eva won a gold award, he congratulated her.
And when Eva decided to become a full-time writer, they gave her quite some money for severance pay. Even when Eva declined multiple times.
Now she had a fan named E who always sent fan letters ever since her first work.
Today, she was coming back from the publisher with a heap of fan letters, and on top of that pile was E's letter.
When E sent her the potion not long ago, she was very surprised. She never saw a potion even when she served the baron so she assumed E was a very rich person or a high noble classman.
Also, she thought she would have to be more considerate when replying to fan letters.
Anyway, the sky was blue and it was a nice day.
