Evalina Algaria, was accused for attempted to kill the crown princess by poison. After being accuse without any further investigation, she was being punished by cutting her head. But, she was not the one who put the poison. She just being accused be...
"Huh, my lady? Is there something wrong?" asked Rozy when I screamed at her.
Ah....Why is The Young Duke here?
The Young Duke had his eyes on me and there's a piece of paper in his hand. I froze when I saw him that I suddenly forgot the reason I came here. He wasted no time and asked me immediately, "Did you learn how to write foreign writings?"
"I, uh, yes. I did learnt how to write foreign writings and language. Why do you ask?" I became nervous.
"This. You wrote it in writings I do not understand," said The Young Duke while handing the paper back to me.
I received the paper from him and looked at it. It's true, this was the reason I came here. I wrote the list of people I asked Rozy to investigate in Kanji. That's why The Young Duke does not understand it. Guess Kanji didn't exist in this world.
"Yes... This is what I was looking for. Thank you for handing this to me. Rozy, please follow me," I said, turned around and began to walk my way to Arsen Room.
"But, my lady..." saidRozy with a scared and whisper voice. Though, all of us could hear it.
"Yes-"
Huh? Did you stop here just because you just stop by or... you heard us?
I turned, facing The Young Duke. He was looking at me with a cold expression and a "I caught you" expression.
"What did you write in that paper?" My body began to froze again when he asked that.
I-it's fine. I have the advantage here.
"Don't think you can lie about it."
No... Don't ever mention I want to lie.
I let out a small sigh and say, "Those are the names of people."
"What is that for? I heard you said it's for the maid of yours can investigate about them. Why do you want to investigate about them?" asked The Young Duke continuously.
"As someone who will become The Crown Princess, I have to know those people as they have a great influence to The Empire. I asked Rozy to investigate about them so it will be easy for me to have a conversation with them," explained me to him with a hope he will believe it. I tried to be calm as much as I can.
Ahhhh?! I mentioned "investigate"! He might not believe me.
"And you accidently wrote it in that writing?" asked The Young Duke after he went silent.
Eh..Is he starting to believe me?
"Yes. It was just a mere accident."
"I see. But don't you think I believe over your lies. Nobody will believe it." he replied and walked away to his room. The Eleutheria Room (Eugene for short. We going to start calling The Young Duke's room, Eugene Room now).
