Chapter 134. Revenge (II), Part VI

Translator: Khan

Editor Group: Liber Reverie

Mielle, who eased her anxiety a little by drinking warm tea, asked Emma, "Would the princess be really angry?"

"No, miss. She even allowed you into the garden after this sudden visit."

"I'm sure she had always been a kind person, so she will show kindness again this time, isn't that right?"

"Yes, and besides, you are the future Duchess, who has already received the ring of promise."

"Yes, that's right."

She believed Emma without a doubt because she had never been hated or rejected by anyone, but the princess only appeared when the sun was about to set.

"... Miss Isis!"

Because of the longer-than-expected wait time, Mielle's face was very shaded as she called her name. But Isis, who didn't even care about it, sat across from Mielle, greeting her simply. She frowned as she checked the time to see if she wanted to make a very busy show.

"I've been a little busy and have made you wait. I wish you'd made an appointment. I can't believe you're here all of a sudden... What's your business?"

"Ah... that..."

But Mielle murmured because she had nothing else to say, although she had come. Isis, who was as cold and fierce as the winter wind, set her sights on Mielle for a while.

Emma, who saw Mielle blushing with tears because of Isis's changed behavior that had always been benevolent, fell flat on the floor of the garden on her behalf. Mielle, surprised, called Emma's name.

"What is it?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! They're all my fault! I should have watched and checked by her side until she finished the job perfectly, but it was too hasty!"

Isis, who was watching her face for a moment without expression after Emma's unexpected behavior, soon raised her mouth and put a soft smile on her face. Mielle looked at Isis with her eyes shining as if she had forgiven her.

"I know. So you don't have to ask for forgiveness."

Emma, thrilled by Isis's benevolent voice, sobbed little. It was because she had been suffering so much in the meantime. Mielle was also fascinated by Isis's friendly face and believed that she would pass the matter as lightly as ever.

"But Emma, you have to clean up what you started."

"... Pardon?"

"I saw in the letter that there was no way to find Berry as she ran away... Isn't that right, Lady Mielle?"

But what came out of Isis's mouth was hard for Mielle to accept.

'I can't believe you're making Emma finish it. How on earth?'

Isis kindly explained the method to the unanswered women. "It would be perfect if you could achieve your original goal, but if you do that in this atmosphere, it would only make trouble. So..."

Isis's gaze rested with Mielle for a while before moving on to Emma.

'No way!' A startled Emma opened her mouth and trembled.

"You have no choice but to say that someone is the real culprit."

"Miss, Miss Isis!"

Mielle was surprised and leaped from her seat. She then stood next to Isis. No matter how wrong she had been, she couldn't let her go like this since she had followed her like her mother.
