That afternoon.

Lelia patted the wrinkled cheeks of her grandmother, who had fallen asleep.

Before coming here, Lelia visited her grandfather and handed him the cure.

Her grandfather said he would give the medicine to her grandmother himself if she was ready.

Just in case, Lelia gave him a few extra pills. Of course, she let him know the precautions.

Grandma, who woke up, saw Lelia as Elizabeth in front of her.

"Elizabeth...? It's Elizabeth."

"Yes, I'm here..."

"My daughter...."

Lelia smiled so brightly that her lips hurt when she looked at her grandmother.

After taking care of this and that and having dinner together, the sky became dark.

"Lelia, is it because you're here? I think she is in better shape than she was in Terren."

At Aunt Atias's words, Lelia smiled as if she was lucky.

[By the way...]

Lelia looked carefully at her aunt.

There were many things that Lelia had to do when she returned to the estate. But her uncle's work was solved very easily thanks to his friends.

Originally, Uncle Carius went missing for an unknown reason, so she was going to stay at the castle for a while.

The problem was Aunt Atias.

[They said the gambler must have had a huge bill...]

The members of the senate council objected to Atias succeeding on the pretext of that.

But while Lelia was growing up here, she never felt that from her aunt.

It was not known whether it was thoroughly hidden by her aunt or a trick of the elders.

[I'm gonna have to look into it.]

However, it was quite difficult to hire someone who could secretly investigate this.

[I can't ask my grandfather's aides... Should I ask Romeo to do it?]

It occurred to her that Romeo would specialize in this. But...

[What if he thinks I'm suspicious? It's harder to explain. I think I'll find a way.]

She could hire a secret informant on the main street.

[I wish I could ask Alchemy...]

Lelia went back to her room and looked at the game menu.

Inspection in progress for large scale updates. Please look forward to the new Alchemy lottery (୨୧ ❛ᴗ❛)✧!

She still got the same message.

[No, you're doing an inspection check for a few days. Without notice?]

It's a big update, but isn't that too much? There's no way users can stay still.

It was frustrating because it was a game in the past where she was already dead.

[I wish you'd rewarded me.]

Lelia grumbled inwardly and stomped in anger.

But when she arrived in front of the room, someone was standing.

On closer inspection, he was a servant of the castle.

"Lady, Sir Carius is looking for you."

At this hour?
