"Father I apologize" Isolabella bow.
"What do you mean?"
"For what happen last night"
"Rather than anger I feel satisfied by your action"
"Pardon?"
"About 'accident' that happen towards viscount Ito, make sure to keep quiet about it"
"You know about it?"
Flashback
A black colthed person slip out of the mansion and make her ways toward another mansion that far away from their's. While the guard change shift she lit the matches and trow it towards the mansion. Then, she walk away, ignoring the scream and tears that she heard.
~Current situation~
"You have prove your worth with inventing gun, befriend with Lady Cecelia daughter of Duke Owen and ruin Ito teritory which is one of our biggest oppenent to conquer the mine on North. Say. What do you want as your reward?"
"Pardon? I just burn the whole teritory because of my anger. I don't think it's deserve a reward"
*sigh*" although it's just for your anger but still it's help to smooth my work. So what do you want? Jewels? New gown?"
"Then.., I hope father can give me a permission to go out"
"Alright. Bring a few knight with you"
Later she bring Mabel, her lady in waiting and 4 knight.
After riding carriage for forthy minute they finnaly arrive at the town. Upon seeing their family crest, murmur could be heard everywhere.
"My lady should we break their neck to give a warning for the other" one of her guard ask. *chuckle* "if you see the dog bark and you bark back, then what's the difference between you and the dog" she answer casually while looking around.
"But my lady-"
"I apologize for his behavior my lady" the other man cut his friend.
"Mmm.. Let's go to the other shop"
After skimming through many shop she finnaly found the one that she need. Smiling she told the shop keeper to send all of those flour to their mansion. Passing through various shop she finnaly got into an old shop. There's many painting display but none customer come. Not only that the painting pick her interest but it's also type of painting that didn't exist in this world except for her previous life.
There's a ginger hair colour man paint a beautiful landscape with a girl on the middle. He's too focus that made him didn't realize Isolabella presence. Olive green eye, sharp nose, plump red lips and a sharp jawline (idk how to describe) can make anyone drooling just by looking at him.
"Erm.."Isolabella humming make him avert his attention towards his.
"Hello. Bts?" She ask suddenly. Her question make the young man tilted his head.
Look like he don't know about it. Is he from 21st century or...if he really is then it will be good to have a companion here.
"Pardon?" The young man ask confuse.
"Ah..sorry. I apologize if I have startled you" she gave her curtisy
"Ah..it's nothing. May I ask what did my lady doing here"
"Eh? Of course to buy a painting. Isn't it's obivious?"
"Ah.. apologize for my rudeness. I just didn't thought that my lady would come to like my painting? Let's me show the best one i've paint" he lead the way.
" Pardon me for my rudeness but may I ask why did you say that you didn't thought that I would come to like your painting? Aside of that what can I call you?"
"The given name is Dalziel. For your ladyship question,..it's because no one ever like the way of my painting since no one ever use this tecnique nor did anyone ever make such a painting. My lady-"
"Isolabella. Call me Isolabella"
Upon hearing that name he seem a little suprise but quickly hide it.
*chuckle* "I can understand you. In this world it is hard to bring a new change towards people perseption. When you make something that different for other they will call you weird. Your stubborrness. I like it. The second I see your painting I fall in love with it"she say while look around to see the painting.
"I want to buy all of this" she point from one end until the other one.
"Please take a seat while i'm pack it" he smile politely.
Dalziel pov
Today I have a weird dream. So, I decide to paint it. However no matter how hard I try I still can't paint a girl in my dream until Lady Isolabella appear. Her face resemble that girl in every aspect. It's been many years since I dream about this girl. From a child until she become a lady that dream always appear. Until she become a great warrior.
Unfortunately in every dream the face of the girl always foggy. But something in it's that make my heart clench seeing her. After met with Lady Isolabella, there's a feeling inside me, telling me that the girl face was exacly like her. Don't know why the first time I landed my eyes on her my feeling become indescribeable. Happy, sadness, mad. It's feel like meeting an old friend. Even when I inttoducing my painting, I feel the urges of crying and hug her. It's feel like the feeling of missing someone.
After finish packaging the painting she propose me a business. Not only that will invest into my shop she also say that she have think of the way to promote it. I wonder what is it?
Isolabella pov
Strange..
After handed the painting that I bought toward Mabel we make our way into carriage. Suddenly my head started to spinning and there's a sudden force that come from a black alley not far from us. I made my way there and saw a young boy around sevent-teen or more sit in the corner hugging his knee mutter the word "it's hurt".
Hearing his word make my heart ache. I approach him and ask what's wrong. When he finnaly free his knee the scene in front of me can make anyone freak out on the spot. Tilted his head he smile and say "it's hurt. Hurt so much"
Blood gushing down from his mouth and there's a huge black spot on his chest. Tears that flowing down, wetting his plump cheeck with a beautiful smile. Handed my hand towards him, I was shock when he suddenly grab it and say "welcome back general"
With that words suddenly I heard Mabel call out my name.
"-iss. Young miss"
"What happen?"
"You say your head ache and suddenly you lost your consciouness. So we brought you to the carriage but before we could arrive you already open your eyes. Young miss is there anything wrong?"
"No.."
It's become more strange...
