“Demimore!”

Her working by means of the flowers was like a scene from a masterpiece portray, momentarily fascinating Demimore.

It was additionally the primary picture of her that existed in Demimore’s recollections. The lady who admired the flowers within the backyard. Typically, she appeared like part of that backyard.

“The wind is chilly.”

Freesia was as soon as once more wearing skinny garments. Demimore draped the scarf he had introduced over her shoulders.

The scarf was delicately woven to supply most softness for her, as she discovered it stifling to put on thick garments.

Thankfully, Freesia appeared to love the mild texture of the scarf, as she didn’t take it off once more.

“It’s delicate.”

“Have you ever seen the whole lot?”

“Yeah. I hope there will likely be blooming daffodils tomorrow.”

Demimore discovered Freesia’s phrases amusing and chuckled softly. Now, the backyard of Freesia was being maintained by means of great magic.

She didn’t appear to understand how laborious it was to have flowers blooming so splendidly in chilly climate.

The truth that Freesia wished for various flowers to bloom within the backyard day by day was actually Freesia-like, but it surely additionally felt suffocating, as if it encompassed the whole lot she desired.

“Lets go inside now?”

“Positive. I’ve very good tea saved for us. I’ve been saving it to get pleasure from it with Demimore.”

Freesia stated so with a twinkle in her eyes. Her expression was extremely endearing. It was not possible to gauge her age.

Even the relentless passage of time appeared to indicate mercy solely to her. Freesia leaned on Demimore’s assist and left the backyard.

At one time Demimore puzzled if she might marry a girl like her mom.

So far as Demimore is aware of, her mom was probably the most lovely girl on the earth. Demimore chuckled at his childhood ideas.

His present fiancée is kind of completely different from his mom in some ways.

“Huh? Why are you laughing?”

He had come right here, pondering that being together with his mom may make him overlook about Mary, however Mary nonetheless lingered in Demimore’s thoughts.

Seeing Demimore’s silence, Freesia stopped in her tracks and stared at him intently. Demimore couldn’t meet her pure and honest gaze, so he solely checked out Freesia’s white fingertips.

“What’s incorrect?”

Freesia blinked endearingly. It was a gesture that the emperor cherished probably the most.

When Freesia made this expression in entrance of him, the Emperor would effortlessly recount the trials and tribulations of his day.

Freesia couldn’t present sensible options, however simply listening to him was sufficient to consolation him, he stated.

Demimore was additionally susceptible to this expression. That’s why he might barely carry his head and will solely stare into the void with out trying straight at Freesia’s face.

“Mom, don’t you are feeling annoyed?”

And at last, Demimore’s hesitant response was fully completely different.

The Emperor, who thought that Freesia, who instantly appeared in the future, might instantly disappear in the future, stored her confined right here.

Demimore, who stored pestering to go for a stroll on the streets together with his mom, sat down with the emperor and listened to that scary story. From then on, Demimore slept by Freesia’s aspect each night time.

Since being forbidden from being along with Freesia by the emperor’s order, there was not a single day when the pillow didn’t grow to be dry. It actually felt as if his mom would go away him alone on this place and disappear.

However in some unspecified time in the future, he began to want that she would disappear as an alternative.

Quite than residing like a caged nightingale… He’d relatively her disappear someplace, forsaking.

She couldn’t also have a correct meal. Even a sip of ingesting water was harmful within the Imperial Palace.

Someday, Cameron approached Demimore, who was crying in entrance of his mom, who had collapsed after ingesting poison, and he sneered.

“What are you crying about?”

“However my mom… I can’t do something for her…”

“Don’t do something, Demimore.”

“What?”

“Are you aware why my mom hates that girl? As a result of she’s stealing His Majesty’s away from her? No, it’s due to you. For those who have been born as a lady, she might have simply thrown you away as a pal of Lausanne. Why have been you born as a son, threatening my path?”

“I by no means threatened…”

“Oh, in fact, watching you appearing silly like this makes me suppose the anxiousness I felt was pointless.”

There was a time when Demimore thought that he wanted to grow to be stronger to guard this weak and valuable existence.

However after listening to Cameron’s phrases, Demimore modified his thoughts.

To guard his mom, he should not grow to be a risk to anybody else. He should grow to be weak.

“Why swiftly… Demimore, why are you asking that?”

“Lets exit and stay, Mom?”

It was an impulsive comment. He simply felt annoyed as we speak. To his mom, who thought this lovely backyard was the world to Mary, who instantly disappeared and to himself, who couldn’t defend something.

The title Freesia was given by the emperor to his mom, who didn’t even know her title.

A presence that will not be unusual even when it disappeared or instantly died. The Emperor would undoubtedly grieve, however his greenhouse was at all times stuffed with different flowers.

“Exit?”

“Simply… Go exterior and plant the flowers mom likes… There are such a lot of superb issues exterior. You possibly can see all of them. Eat to your coronary heart’s content material.”

“What about Diego?”

“……No, not with father.”

Demimore couldn’t assist however set free a bitter chortle on the sudden point out of the Emperor’s title. Was it actually acceptable to casually name the title of such a dignified particular person? The Emperor didn’t anticipate something from Freesia.

Due to this fact, he didn’t trouble educating her primary etiquette. He simply needed her to remain lovely and beautiful as she was once they first met.

Simply watching the distorted affection from the aspect was suffocating, however the girl receiving that affection was so harmless.

“But when I instantly disappear, Diego will die.”

She should have been correctly brainwashed. The Emperor would by no means die even when she disappeared. However Freesia appeared to genuinely consider that.

As he checked out Freesia crying in misery, unusual ideas sprouted in Demimore’s thoughts as properly.

If she had threatened Mary along with her life like that, would she disappear like this?

If Mary have been additionally confined like this, at first, it could be bleak, however over time, Mary may discover her personal little happiness like his mom…

“What’s incorrect, Demimore? Inform me.”

Demimore’s expression appeared regarding, so Freesia gently stroked his cheek and requested softly.

“It’s nothing. Mom is comfortable residing like this…”

He hesitated to proceed.

Demimore bowed his head, unable to complete his phrases. How silly of him to speak about happiness in entrance of his personal mom.

Freesia didn’t know what number of decisions she had in entrance of her. She simply lived by accepting what was given to her.

To deal with Mary like his mom. Demimore, overwhelmed by a profound sense of self-disgust, set free an extended sigh that felt heavy. He thought he was actually the son of Diego Arstans.

“Aren’t you cheerful, Demimore?”

“……I don’t know.”

“Wait a minute.”

Arriving on the Star Palace, Freesia clapped her arms collectively and disappeared someplace. Then she reappeared, holding one thing, and prolonged it to Demimore.

The paper in Freesia’s hand was outdated, unable to flee the passage of time, but it surely nonetheless seemed prefer it had been cherished.

“What’s this?”

“It’s a attraction!”

“A attraction?”

“Now that I’ve Diego with me, I’m okay now.”

As Demimore stared on the paper, Freesia forcefully positioned it in his hand, maybe feeling annoyed.

Demimore cautiously started to unfold the paper. What sort of attraction might this be?

“It looks like it could be good to provide it to somebody valuable, Demimore.”

“Somebody valuable?”

“Mary?”

“Mary?”

There was Mary. Like a parrot, Freesia repeated Demimore’s phrases after which she realized one thing and giggled with pleasure.

“Sure! It will be good to provide it to Mary. Because of the Laminaicho that Mary gave me, I used to be capable of survive!”

“No, this girl one way or the other resembles Mary…”

“She’s a saint. She protects us.”

“A saint?”

“She was the one who protected us from the God of Dying.”

Freesia’s voice seemed like she was dreaming. Demimore remained targeted on the image of the saint contained in the paper.

“That’s proper. It will be good to take Demimore there. There was a home the place the flowers within the backyard modified day by day.”

“There?”

“The place the place I grew up.”

Demimore’s eyes sparkled as he heard Freesia’s story from the previous.

Since Freesia by no means talked about her previous, Demimore had assumed she had no recollections in any respect.

“Do you keep in mind, mom?”

“I don’t speak in regards to the previous as a result of Diego doesn’t prefer it…”

“In order that’s why you hope for the flowers within the backyard to vary day by day.”

Realizing that Freesia’s whimsical needs weren’t unfounded or nonsensical, Demimore expressed real regret.

Freesia, unaware of Demimore’s ideas, continued to talk cheerfully.

“Yeah, that’s proper. Arsene stated he did it for the saint.”

“Wait a minute, Arsene?”

Demimore interrupted her as her title caught his consideration.

“Sure, Arsene. He was the one who protected the village after the saint disappeared.”
