"Shane."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
The Duke of Biherville, who put the child to sleep, called Shane, who was standing like a shadow.
Shane answered and came closer.
"What about the temple's movements?"
"They are constantly asking to meet. They seem to be aware of the Lady's existence."
"What about Enotis?"
"There is no movement yet. They know that we can't reject the temple's request until the end, so it seems that they'll stay still at first."
"That's right."
The Duke laid the child on the sofa and brushed the hair that had fallen down to the child's face.
Then he looked down at the child quietly.
"Prepare for adoption."
"Your Excellency. She's a child with divine power. The temple won't give up easily."
"How much damage did we lose because Serena Enotis was born with divine powers?"
"Eight business acquaintances have moved to Enotis, and public opinion is also flowing in favor of Enotis."
"Get it ready now."
"Yes."
Even while he was calculating, the Duke could not take his eyes off the child strangely.
Her body was smaller than Jerion, and her skinny cheeks caught his mind.
A child with gray hair and gray eyes sometimes reminded him of someone.
It was a child who was strangely caught in his eyes.
*****
In the meantime, I ate in the room, but today I moved to the dining room with the Duke.
It was strange that there was no sink to call it a dining room, but when the Duke sat down, the food was carried out.
I thought the nobles were eating in places like this.
But the Duke sat me on his lap and picked up the meal.
I was hungry, but there was no way I could have a meal in such a precious place, so I quietly leaned on the Duke.
"Here."
"Yesh?"
The Duke cut the meat into small pieces and give it to me.
When I looked up at the Duke with an embarrassing look, he once again put a fork around my mouth with no expression, as usual.
"Aa."
"Can i eath thhish?" [Can I eat This?]
"Yeah."
He carefully put the meat in my mouth.
"Hngg-"
It was so delicious that I breathed out strangely without realizing it.
I hurriedly looked into the Duke's eyes, but the Duke didn't seem to care.
"Here."
Again, I quickly ate the meat that was brought to my mouth.
It was such an ecstatic taste that I wondered if there was such a taste in the world. I took what he gave me and ate it.
