“A puppy…..?”
Ellie’s steps to the preparation room were very light.
She didn’t think her master (Helen) had lied to her. Her master wasn’t that kind of person.
There’s just one thing then. A dog without a name tag could be seen roaming around the castle. It was the Emperor’s puppy named Louis.
Once people saw Louis running around with his black fur dancing, they could never forget him.
He loved people and liked to roam all over the place.
“But he’s closer to a dog than a puppy. He’s very big.”
“I’ll ask her later.”
Ellie thought that maybe the puppy could be the key to succeeding the Emperor and her master Edith. (Helen is under Edith’s name)
If her master can heal the injured puppy, maybe the Emperor will show his face.
The Emperor coldly refused to visit his concubines every day, but if her master could heal Louis, whom the Emperor cherished, just once….
“I have a good feeling about this…”
Ellie’s steps toward the preparation room became faster and faster. A happy smile spread across her face.
At that moment, Helen got out of bed and secretly put some snacks in the basket. She didn’t know what Ellie was thinking as she making her way to the preparation room.
“….”
“Here is your medicine, Lady.”
A round jar in Ellie’s hand.
‘I said ‘wound medicine’ and she gave me some ointment.’
“Are you back already? You can go slowly if you want…”
“Are you going for a walk tonight?”
Apparently, Ellie’s eyes sparkled.
“No, I won’t go.”
“Why not!”
“Huh?”
Ellie was puzzled.
Helen had just lied to Ellie so that she wouldn’t be found out.
“I heard that the puppy got injured. Oh, don’t you have to treat him as soon as possible?” (Ellie)
“Yes, I do.” (Helen)
“Then, by all means, go for another walk tonight. I’ll prepare a thick jacket for you today so that you won’t be cold during the night.”
“I see.”
Helen nodded with a puzzled expression.
How could Ellie be so supportive of her evening walk?
Helen thought it was a relief, at least. If Ellie stopped her from going, she would not be able to keep her promise to the man.
At the same time, she didn’t want to be the one who didn’t listen to Ellie.
“Yes, I’ll go.”
It was rather a good thing.
***
After Ellie left, Helen put on her jacket and held a blanket in her arms. She also packed a pen and ink in the basket where she kept simple snacks.
