Chapter 11.1

Philip and his companions rode in a carriage in direction of a mansion situated a brief distance from the procuring district.

“Right here we’re, Philip. This can be a villa the place the royalty from neighboring international locations keep briefly once they go to the academy to fulfill their youngsters or family members. The Buying and selling Affiliation has just a few extra buildings like this one.”

Philip wore a glad expression as he took within the environment of the villa, guided by Lisriel. With its two flooring and over six rooms, the place was adorned with varied costly furnishings and decorations.

“So, you’re lending this place to us?”

“In my coronary heart, I’d simply give it to you, however sadly, that wouldn’t be possible.”

Philip nodded in understanding.

“Properly, I assume that is sensible. Is every thing else ready?”

“In fact. We’ve got already employed a butler, maids, a chef, and a gardener. The remaining workers can be employed by the butler. Philip, you simply must chill out and revel in your time right here.”

‘She doesn’t appear to have any suspicions.’

As anticipated, Lisriel’s angle was much more favorable than Philip had imagined.

He puzzled if she may need doubts concerning the authenticity of the “Golden Seal of Joseph,” however it appeared there was a way to confirm its legitimacy.

“Um, I want to make use of the restroom. The place can I discover it?”

Lua, who had been quietly standing there, all of the sudden spoke up. Felicia, being a noblewoman, was greatly surprised by Lua’s directness.

“You shouldn’t converse like that. You’re a fourteen-year-old lady, and there are males round.”

“…?”

Lua tilted her head, not understanding what the difficulty was. Felicia rubbed her brow.

She was conscious of the atmosphere through which Lua had grown up.

“The restroom is on the finish of the hallway,” Lisriel replied.

“Thanks. I’ll be again shortly.”

Felicia took Lua together with her and headed in direction of the restroom.

“… Regardless that I requested her to return, why did she really come?”

Philip tilted his head, unable to grasp the rationale behind Felicia’s presence.

As soon as they have been alone within the reception room, Philip determined to ask a query.

“When do you intend to disclose the ‘Golden Seal’?”

Upon listening to Philip’s query, Lisriel set free a mushy chuckle and flicked her finger playfully.

“I’ll deal with that by myself. However to be trustworthy, I nonetheless discover it laborious to consider. That seal is essentially the most highly effective weapon in my possession.”

“Do you really belief me?”

Lisriel set free a small sigh in response.

“… The truth that you’re asking that reveals that you don’t have any intention of deceiving me. When folks deceive others, they often have motives. Particularly when deceiving somebody who has the ability to convey their downfall, there should be a grand motive behind it, don’t you suppose?”

“Maybe.”

“However you haven’t imposed any circumstances on me. You’re effectively conscious of what you can acquire from me. Most individuals who would do which are both absurd swindlers or these with restricted time left to dwell. However you don’t match into both of these classes. That’s why I discover it simpler to belief you.”

“… However I may nonetheless be a swindler.”

“Properly, I don’t have every other choices anyway. If I proceed with the succession competitors, I’ve no probability of successful. In a means, Philip, you’re just like the cube I’m playing with. So, don’t fear unnecessarily. Till the second you betray me, I’ll attempt to earn your favor as a lot as I can.”

Philip nodded in response.

Lisriel Joseph was an distinctive service provider, so it felt unnatural for her to belief him so simply. He wished to know the rationale behind it, and if that was the rationale, it was comprehensible sufficient.

‘From this level on, I’ve been fairly cornered. It’s not as a result of there’s a cause to belief, however as a result of I merely need to belief.’

Initially, if Lisriel didn’t get entangled with the primary characters’ group, her destiny would have been fairly merciless. In fact, now it will be completely different.

“Oh, right here they’re.”

Felicia and Lua, who had gone downstairs to select flowers, have been coming again, holding palms.

‘Ladies grow to be shut shortly.’

Philip approached Lua and requested her.

“Lua, how do you prefer it right here?”

“Hmm? Um, it appears like a very nice home.”

Lua answered with out a lot hesitation. It was the primary time she had seen such an enormous home. It appeared ten instances bigger than the home of the village chief within the mountain village.

“That’s a aid. Any longer, this can be your own home, so it’s best to prefer it.”

Philip nodded his head.

“… Actually? Why me?”

Lua widened her eyes in shock.

“Hi there.”

“Hi there.”

Lua bowed her head politely. Lisriel appeared happy by her modest gesture and opened her mouth with a playful smile.

“Have you ever ever puzzled what occurs when you freeze candy cream with magic?”

It was an immediate spark of fondness.

—

“So, you had a battle with Teacher Haron.”

Felicia parted her lips as she led Philip to the second-floor terrace.

Philip was greatly surprised. However upon reflection, it was unsurprising. Contemplating the incident the place Teacher Haron tried to attract his sword, it will be odd if Felicia was unaware of it.

“Oh, proper. I didn’t need it to occur… I’m sorry.”

Felicia couldn’t consider Philip’s apology and set free a hole snicker.

“Why are you apologizing? I heard Teacher Haron crossed the road first.”

“It was a state of affairs the place I may have held again too.”

“You? Holding again?”

“… Isn’t it okay for me to carry again?”

“No, you probably did effectively by holding again… It’s simply, I imply…”

Philip stared at Felicia, who was stumbling over her phrases.

‘Is she going by way of puberty?’

“Is it okay if we return to what we have been doing except it’s one thing essential? I’ve rather a lot to do any further.”

“I’ve to do a lot of procuring.”

Felicia’s eyes narrowed, and he or she abruptly turned her head.

“… Do as you want.”

Philip hesitated for a second because it appeared like she was upset. However since Felicia didn’t appear prone to converse up, he moved to return to the classroom.

Then he heard Felicia’s calm voice from behind.

“Philip Oswald.”

“Why?”

“Why do you need to sponsor that youngster?”

Philip blinked. He couldn’t inform her the reality that the little lady would awaken as a descendant of the legendary hero in about 5 years.

“She appeared to want assist as an grownup. In case you had seen Lua crying on her dorm mattress, you wouldn’t be asking me this query.”

Felicia felt his argument was persuasive. She had additionally seen Lua, exhausted from crying, and ultimately falling asleep.

“It’s not that essential, do as you please.”

She couldn’t discover any grounds or causes to hinder Philip.

It was too unreasonable to remove the luck that had barely come to Lua after all of the anxiousness she had gone by way of.

“… In case you resolve to sponsor somebody, you must take duty till the top. It was a reasonably… glorious selection so that you can sponsor that youngster, however that doesn’t imply I feel you’ve modified.”

Felicia spoke in a muddled method.

She felt fairly embarrassed as a result of she by no means anticipated to talk to her ignored and resented youthful brother like this once more.

“Okay, I’m going to purchase garments for Lua. Are you coming too, Noona?”

“What?”

“It’s virtually the weekend, so we want an outfit for going out. She wants a good sword for coaching, and he or she’ll want an allowance, proper? And we have now to do one thing about her messy hair.”

It appeared like there was no want to fret an excessive amount of.

Philip had as soon as considered an fascinating concept a very long time in the past.

It was an extremely unrealistic creativeness of freely swiping an infinite bank card, a quite common however extremely unlikely chance for somebody from a humble background.

‘That is the pleasure of irresponsibility.’
