Don't Trust the Heroine

CHAPTER 20

The heat in the summer was like torture for those who are sleeping.

Medenna frowned as she tossed and turned.

"Medenna. Wake up."

A low voice that sounded something between a boy and a young man called out to her.

"No... 10 more minutes..."

"You've been extending it for 10 minutes and it's already an hour."

The maid was said to me.

"Sigh..."

Medena sighed deeply, but the opponent did not budge.

Medenna gave up and rubbed her eyes.

"...I'm still sleepy."

"Good morning."

"The lord said he wanted to have breakfast with us today, so you have to hurry."

When I blinked a few times, the boy said so.

A boy with black hair was seen smiling softly at her.

Standing in front of Farenn after getting out of bed, Medenna suddenly blinked as if she had realized.

"Oh my. You're tallerl than me now..."

"I know. But I still have a long way to go. My goal is to grow to the point where you need to raise your head and look up."

"Hmm. I'm happy, but a bit disappointed... I can't believe you're already this big..."

"I'm not your son. Stop talking and wash up now."

Farren called in the maids to take Medenna to the bathroom.

"I see. It's already been this long."

It was the summer of 1523 in the continental calendar.

More than two years have passed since Medenna brought Farren.

Farren, who will soon turn 15, quickly mastered many things as he said.

He recently started working as Medenna's assistant and served as the head of the Luke Mercenary Guild after Sein laid the foundation.

His achievements were surprising when he was not yet an adult.

As an assistant, Farren wakes Medenna up and goes to work at the mercenary guild.

He went out early in the morning.

So Medenna spent a cozy breakfast time with her mother today.

"It's been a while since I ate with you like this."

"Yes. Mother is often away from home."

"It's because I feel reassured because you're there. Honestly, I think I can leave the Rodenherg Mercenary Guild to you completely now."

"Mother, it's too much of a burden for me."

Medenna laughed off her praise and cut the bacon into pieces.

"By the way, you're not sick anywhere, are you?"

"You say that whenever you see me. There's nothing much going on, so you can stop asking."

"Don't skip a regular checkup."

"Okay, okay."

Luciola smiled kindly and was not very serious when she was told by her daughter.

However, Medenna had no choice but to be desperate.

It still gave her goosebumps to think of her mother dying of an unknown disease in her previous life.
