성황의 아이들 [2]

204

204. Louise (7)

First morning at Sigismund Range. Seongjin opened his eyes at the same time without fail.

But instead of jumping up and starting to meditate like he usually did, he lay still, looking at the faint rays of light coming through the small window.

It was a strange feeling that is difficult to describe. A disturbing and breathtaking feeling that will disappear even if you turn your head slightly.

'Why do I feel so strange? 'Is it because I'm not used to sleeping there?'

Or maybe I overexerted myself and stayed up too late last night.

With that thought in mind, Seongjin raised his hand to block the sunlight, and suddenly his eyes fell on the small hand of a familiar yet unfamiliar boy.

'... ah!'

I thought I knew.

From now on, he really has to live a proper life as Mores. He may be feeling the burden unconsciously.

It will definitely be different from my previous life, which was filled with one goal: revenge. It's not an extra vacation at the end of life, and it's certainly not a life that you keep for a while before giving it back to someone else.

This is the full life of a young boy with brilliant potential, a family who loves and is loved, and who must never fail.

'That's too much for an old man like me.'

Everything that seemed so clear until now suddenly felt so vague and uneasy.

But it also felt exciting, so it wasn't such a bad feeling.

'Well, I guess I'll have to try something.'

That's how I make up my mind.

smart.

With a knock on the door, Edith comes in carrying a water bottle as always.

"Did you cough, sir?"

Ah, Edith.

My dedicated maid who is shameful no matter where I put her.

Please don't cause any trouble while staying at the count's house.

When Seongjin stared at her unusually, Edith was a little embarrassed and hurriedly made an excuse.

"Ah, I'm sorry, sir. Yesterday, I neglected my work as I was following the butler and receiving necessary training at the count's residence. Fortunately, Louise took care of most of the work, but did you find it very inconvenient?"

"no. "It was okay."

okay. Maybe the number of times you gave me gall tea is much more than I know.

I'll remember this, so let's do better in the future.

Then Edith trembled and muttered.

"what? Why do I suddenly have chills... ... ."

While she was working hard to activate the aura inside her body, Masaine also came to Seongjin's room as usual.

"Sir, did you have any trouble last night? "How are you feeling?"

"Oh, welcome. Lord Masaine."

Seongjin responded by getting up and looking at Masain's face once again.

Now that I think about it, that guy has been consistently kind to Mores since I first met him.

Normally, I would just say, 'You have such a loyal personality.' I probably would have done it, but as soon as the possibility that the target might actually be me arises, the feeling becomes more subtle.
