“Mother will go, okay!”
“I do know! I’m not nervous anymore!”
Rere scooped up a load of pudding sufficiently big for it to spill and ate it in a single chew.
So I walked to the kid who smiled in her try and reassure me.
“Rere.”
“Yeah?”
After I got here to her facet, I sat down and made eye contact along with her.
“Are you holding again since you’re scared that Mother will hate you?”
“W-What! Who’s holding again? I’m not!”
“Are you certain? You don’t need me to depart, don’t you? So that you’ve been holding again, proper?”
Listening to that, Rere pouted grumpily along with her tiny lips.
“If I mentioned I used to be somewhat jealous…If I let you know to not go….will you hate me? Is it okay if I’m not as courageous as an grownup? Will you continue to like me as you are actually?”
So I hugged the kid who was anxiously mumbling alone.
“Massive Bunny….?”
“Rere is the prettiest when Rere is being herself!”
“Actually….?”
“Yeah! So you’ll be able to inform me to not exit. It’s okay to whine from time to time.”
The kid should’ve been scared to be hated by me, and that made me unhappy as a result of the kid appeared to develop up so quick.
“Okay! I prefer it if Massive Bunny doesn’t exit.”
“Ah, is that so? Then, as a result of Rere prefers if I don’t exit, I’ll simply go as soon as per week to any extent further. That ought to be okay, proper?”
“Yup! Purchase extra bubbles in your means again, okay!”
“Okay.”
Rere lastly nodded with a really relaxed expression.
“Okay. Then, would you like Rere to attend for you outdoors?”
“No. Simply keep in your room, Rere.”
“Then, Rere will play with the toy from Massive Bunny!”
Trying on the excited little one, I rose from my seat and stroked her hair. If she waited for me outdoors, it might really feel particularly lengthy even when I returned early.
“I’ll go away the kid in your care.”
I made eye contact with the nanny and the maids behind her. For some purpose, they seemed very enthusiastic, clenching their fists as if telling me to not fear.
“You don’t want to fret, Madam. Depart it to us.”
“That’s proper. Anyway, you’re nervous an excessive amount of about me! Whose daughter am I?! I’m Massive Bunny’s daughter! So that you don’t want to fret.”
She even did her finest to reassure me, so there was no purpose for me to remain any longer.
So I ended up heading to the carriage after receiving a number of needs to return safely. The coachman seemed fairly relaxed as properly as a result of it was our third outing.
“We’ll depart shortly.”
Even the coachman barely confirmed any response when he noticed Luca sitting contained in the carriage.
The whole lot grew to become pure as if it ought to be like that from the start.
“Alright.”
The coachman closed the carriage door and slowly drove off.
“Going out like this feesl like a date now, doesn’t it?”
“I agree.”
“However I feel we should always cut back the frequency of our dates to solely as soon as per week….”
“Actually, I used to be somewhat dissatisfied. If solely you had a separate mattress, I feel we might do much more collectively.”
“D-Do what extra?”
“You’re such a cutie.”
He tilted his head barely and checked out me as if he was having enjoyable. Thankfully, the temple was shut, and the carriage stopped earlier than his lips got here nearer to me.
“Madam, I’ll open the door.”
“H-Hurry, open it!”
“Y-Sure!”
I yelled out of embarrassment, however the coachman mistook it for an order and hurriedly opened the door.
In the meantime, Luca grabbed my hem as if not prepared to let me go, however I hurriedly left the carriage.
And I noticed Isaac as quickly as I obtained off.
“Isaac!”
“I’ve been ready for you.”
Isaac waved his hand fortunately and seemed extra cheerful than earlier than.
“I used to be nervous about you, Isaac. However I’m glad you’re doing properly.”
“Um, I-I’ve one thing to let you know.”
“One thing to inform me?”
“Sure. Let’s go in and discuss! Rather a lot has occurred lately!”
“Actually?”
I used to be questioning what made him so comfortable and seemed in regards to the surrounding space. Positive sufficient, the ambiance within the temple was completely different. To be actual, the variety of folks dashing to my carriage had decreased considerably.
Isaac additionally walked extra freely than earlier than. Due to this, I felt extra snug following him.
“So, the place are we going right this moment?”
“We’re going straight to the library.”
“We’re not going to see the Excessive Priest first?”
“Do we actually want to satisfy somebody who’s already so busy?”
I consider that there shouldn’t be any strain in assembly one another. However I couldn’t assist feeling pressured to satisfy the Excessive Priest each single time. I attempted to make myself really feel snug, however there’ll all the time be an odd discomfort inside me.
After some time, we arrived within the hallway of the library.
“So are you able to inform me what occurred?”
“Since your final go to, the Excessive Priest performed an intensive purging.”
“An in depth purging?”
“Among the senior clergymen had been demoted to decrease ranks, and a few had been dismissed from their function as a priest or holy knight.”
I couldn’t assist however smile at the excellent news.
“Actually….?!”
“Sure. And as for me….I used to be promoted to senior priest. It’s all due to you. I’ve been getting ready for a very long time however I by no means handed….”
He barely rotated to wipe his tears after which smiled dejectedly.
“It’s all due to you, Duchess. I thanks from the underside of my coronary heart.”
“No. I’m certain it’s as a result of Isaac is extra trustworthy than anybody else right here. So that you deserve this place.”
“Nonetheless, I feel even the Excessive Priest modified quite a bit since your go to final time.”
“I’m certain it’s solely a coincidence.”
“It’s unlikely. But when the Duchess mentioned it’s a coincidence, so it should be.”
Isaac crinkled his eyes right into a smile. Simply in time, we arrived in entrance of the library.
“In any case, it’s true that you just helped me. As soon as once more, I’m grateful to you.”
Ultimately, I gave a lightweight nod to Isaac, who was persistently thanking me despite the fact that I mentioned I used to be okay.
“Then you’ll be able to present us your medal and enter straight away.”
So I took the medal out of the rabbit pocket and confirmed it to them. After inspecting the medal rigorously, they opened the library door.
It was my second go to, but it surely made my coronary heart flutter.
“Now, lets search for one other?”
“Sure!”
Luca and I shortly walked to the place we had been finally time. I wasn’t certain if nobody had are available in since then or they purposely didn’t contact it since they noticed us studying it, however the books had been nonetheless the identical as earlier than.
Due to that, Luca and I might proceed from the place we left off.
Since then, I had been trying for a very long time, however I couldn’t simply discover what I wished from these books. Even after an hour, then two hours handed.
“Luca, do you truthfully suppose we are able to discover it?”
“Don’t fear. We’ve seen various data in comparison with the final time.”
“Even so….there are too many books.”
It wasn’t an exaggeration. There have been hundreds of books ready to be learn. Even every guide was made by combining a number of sufferers’ illnesses, so I questioned if I ought to learn 100 books a day.
“Talking of which, Leona.”
“Yeah?”
“Please don’t lose hope. Even when we don’t discover one thing quickly, I’m certain there’ll be a means sometime. I consider in you, Leona.”
He rubbed his cheek towards mine.
“Leona is an incredible one that can do something.”
“I’m actually glad that I’ve you, Luca. I gained’t hand over simply since you had been right here.”
“So let’s discover Rere’s treatment collectively!”
“Alright.”
And after on the lookout for one other hour, I lastly put down the guide I used to be studying.
“I feel that is sufficient for right this moment. Rere is ready for me. If it’s too late….”
As if he understood what I used to be saying, Luca additionally put down the guide he was studying.
“Then let’s wrap up for right this moment. I feel I’ve lastly discovered one thing. There’s some report of illness with signs resembling sudden collapse ….”
“Alright. Subsequent time, we are going to begin trying from that one. Let’s return house for right this moment. “
After which we left the library. Isaac guided us to the carriage simply as we had entered. Then, I instructed Isaac that we’d come as soon as per week now.
***{ /heart}
By the point we arrived on the duchy, the again of my head was tingling.
I had a extremely dangerous feeling about it.
And simply because the carriage entered the primary gate, I noticed one other carriage in entrance of the mansion.
Nevertheless it wasn’t an odd carriage.
“The royal household….?”
The carriage was adorned with the insignia of the imperial household. Which meant….
As quickly as I felt the carriage slowing down somewhat, I opened the carriage door and jumped out.
“Leona!”
I might hear Luca’s shocked voice, however I ignored him and stored operating. I couldn’t absolutely belief the Duke but.
How might a royal household go to at instances like this, anyway?
‘Possibly it’s the emperor.’
What if he got here to power the engagement?
I used to be engulfed in nervousness and sped up my steps.
The Duke’s servants seemed shocked once they noticed me operating in a rush.
“Madam, what’s the matter?”
“The place’s Rere!!”
“She’s within the backyard.”
“Take me there!”
The servants rushed to the entrance. Then I adopted the servant to the backyard and eventually discovered Rere.
My daughter, Rere, was livid with a boy.
“I hate it when a person is obsessive about me!”
