Countess Cianella’s Male Slave

143. Understanding the level (3)

When the sunset begins to set, Shione prepares for a quiet night.

They say that snacks eaten during the day and snacks eaten at night are two different things.

During the day, I move as much as I eat, shoot arrows and jog. As much as night is the time to lock yourself in your room and not move.

They say that if you eat at night as if it were daytime, you can go back to a year ago in an instant.

Shione-nim refrained from eating and drinking herself and entered the closed-door training on the bed and under the blanket.

Originally, she would roll around on the bed, but occasionally snooped in front of her bookshelf. Uncharacteristically, she was moving busily.

‘I heard that there is a dinner schedule with the elves tonight.’

Of course, the reason is because of the guests from Daesurim.

For what reason did the elf come to the count’s house, and how disgusted he was?

First of all, to the high family and family… Since he has a friendly relationship with Daesurim, he cannot be neglected.

“I should wear this.”

Shione was in her room in front of a full-length mirror, swishing her posture, checking her change of clothes.

She was wearing a formal dress instead of her usual wide-brimmed pajamas.

I checked the reflection of her in the mirror from behind her and gave her a small nod.

‘Now that I’m dressed up, I finally look like a noble lady.’

She used to be a beast, her long hair frizzy like a wild animal. Now, that is all a thing of the past.

Her lustrous hair is slowly getting out of the way and gradually recovering its former length.

The hair that begins to completely cover the collarbone will soon come down to cover the backbone.

Not only the hair in good condition, but also the white skin that has never been sunburned, and there is not a single visible scar at this age.

Unlike commoners who live and work under the scorching sun day by day, she boasts that she has grown up as a noble person even at a glance.

From the outside, it’s obvious that she has lived a much more comfortable life than commoners.

“Haa… ….”

Sione’s expression was a little crumpled as she looked at me in her robe.

“As usual, eating with her mother and older sister is the most comfortable….”

“Still, wouldn’t dinner be more delicious than usual? The cooks seem to be more diligent than when Shion returned.”

Even when I stopped by the kitchen to make a sandwich, when I went to drop off a plate or when I went back to pick up snacks.

Today, the chefs were working tirelessly, as if they were trying to somehow make a successful meal.

Especially when cutting onions, tears and runny nose made a fuss.

I can still see the busy struggles of her disciples dying under the overflowing spirit of the chef.

“What if it tastes good? The people I eat with make me look a lot.”

However, for some reason, Shione’s expression couldn’t be solved even with the food that several chefs put my passion into.

“Zion sits next to me… And she would have to face her face with the elves who came as guests in the front seat. It’s a burden, so I can’t even taste it properly.”

“Ah….”

Sitting next to him is a younger brother who is like an enemy.

And in the front seat, Friel, who had a strange fight with her, and her fellow gobies.

Certainly, you must have noticed that you are completely focused on eating.

As soon as I showed her subtly agreeing with her words, Shione let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

“Then I’ll be on my way. Ray is waiting here.”

“Is it okay if I don’t have to wait in front of the restaurant?”

“I don’t know when it will end, so why do I need to do that? Besides-“

Shione’s eyes shone with sharp eyes for an instant.

Shockingly.

Then she stopped talking and bit her mouth halfway through.

“Moreover?”

“Ummm… Nothing.”

Shione, who brightly corrected her expression in an instant, her dodo also ran and hugged me once.

Immediately, without hesitation, I opened my door and went out.

Before the door closed, she peeked out her pouting face through a small gap between her and said with a bashful smile.

“Then I’ll be back!”

Bang!

Ray looked downcast at the tightly closed door where her master stayed.

Shione stiffened her expression again and walked quietly.

“Hmm.”

Shione let out her small voice and at the same time recalled what she had heard in her past.

Her sister’s words that if she showed her indecisiveness due to her indecisiveness, Ray might be in danger or be taken away.

“Calm down Sione.”

Her own greatest enemy of her funds is Friel Arielt. As befits a woman of that noble race, she is beautiful and her abilities are outstanding.

She can never be indecisive in front of her enemies.

From her beauty, her family, and her ability, she brought countless treasures into her arms, but I have one treasure that she doesn’t have at all.

By the time her sunset was fading and the pure white light was sitting in the hallway, Shione was uncharacteristically acting her aristocratic elegance as she walked through her hallway.

Again. Again.

“Shione… you are the best…….”

Her self-confidence was boosted by her rather unfamiliar words, and the expression on her face contained the spleen of a woman going to deal with her rival.

* *

I passed the time in Shione’s room.

There’s nothing to do. Eventually, I snooped in front of Shione’s bookshelf and checked the titles of her novels she had been reading.

“Um.”

Although I snoop around here while cleaning, I’m a bit far from books. It’s the first time I’ve checked properly like this.

I checked the title of the novel that I had the most hands on.

[Biography of Princess Frelanche]

A normal title for books that say he taught Shione a strange way to seduce him.

Then I read the title of the novel next to it.

[Ugly woman of the Mage Tower reincarnated as the daughter of a duke]

Finally, the concept of reincarnation came out.

[The knight who was executed for being accused of unreasonable treason becomes the 3rd princess of the Damned Empire]

With the appearance of a suspiciously long title.

[How to live like a human, Volume 1 – Let’s motivate ourselves]

A self-development book popped out.

“… How to live like a man? That there is one…….”

I skimmed the pages of the book.

[How to live like a human, Volume 2 – A happy life from family]

[How to live like a human, Volume 3 – For a better myself]

“Ah… ….”

Seeing that my hands were burnt more than other books, it seems that I read it very diligently in the past.

She seems to be able to see a little bit of her efforts alone.

I ignored the How to Live Like a Human series and focused on the titles of other books again.

[About how a commoner looked hungry and handed me three gold coins while inspecting the territory, and 7 years later, he became the most beautiful man in the continent and swore allegiance to me.]

[I took over the body of her princess, who was her villainess, but unlike her, I try to live a kind life for her]

[The secret to the success of face genius Youngae! – Struggling for a senior position at the Imperial Academy]

“… ….”

All the continental abysses are gathered here.

Perhaps that clumsy way of seducing came from these books.

Overwhelmed by the lengthy title in the common language of the continent, time has already passed.

I finally start to feel people in front of the room.

….

Finally, Shione, the owner of many novels, returned to her room.

She left the corners of her eyes, the corners of her mouth, and eventually her shoulders drooping. She was exhausted.

“Huh… ….”

The sound of sighs submerged in fatigue is truly a masterpiece.

I moved away from the bookshelf that had been gathering my attention and approached Shione.

She just sat still and noticed the food with her mouth, and with all her other senses except for taste, she was too tired to even hit people who had eaten.

“You look tired, but… Did something happen?”

Nodding.

At my words, Shione nodded her head.

“Today, throughout the meal, you put all your nerves into preparing the ceremony.”

Before she knew it, Nell, a child who appeared behind her, made eye contact with me and answered her instead.

Ainel is the same as usual. It didn’t matter that she was wearing a suit.

Why is it today? Inside the count’s residence, a sword was prepared at her waist as she carried a pen as a literary person, not a soldier.

Moreover, with that sword.

‘That sword… ….’

It was not an ordinary thing to feel a familiar energy somewhere.

The child Nell, who had brought such an unusual sword, looked at Sione from behind and gently raised the corner of her mouth.

“You have the most aristocratic appearance since you were born. Maybe that’s why I’m exhausted.”

“Ainel?”

If you go, I think it would be better to talk with Friel a little more after the meal.

Why did she come all the way to Sione’s room at a time like this?

“May I ask what brought you here?”

At my question, Ainel erased her smile and stepped completely into her room.

Kiki. Bang.

At the moment when the door is closed and the corridor and the room are disconnected, Ainel responds in time.

“I have something to say about the conversation I had with Sione, Ray, and the daughter of the Arielt family, so I would like you to take a moment.”

Her face, which usually showed her unwavering stable emotions, was distorted with negative sentiments such as small annoyances before she knew it.

“Quite… Because it’s a serious story.”

Life is like shooting an arrow.

Received the exclamation of the protest, the arrow cuts through the air and flies toward the destination.

Although turbulence and headwinds along the way, and sometimes obstacles, may cause you to bend and fall. Kkuyeokkkuyeok Overcoming the ordeal somehow and hitting the target is exactly that.

My arrows have the power to pierce the storm, and I, too, will not be shaken and overcome any ordeal that may come my way in my life. I used to think so.

But this time the ordeal…….

[The quest has been formed.]

「Salvation of the Great Forest」

「The High Elves of the Great Forest saw a future where the World Tree was burned and the Elves were annihilated. As she sees the future, demonic lunatics will try to burn the Great Forest’s world tree with the black flames of corruption. Will he ignore the World Tree and the weakened elves, who have already been considerably damaged, or will he bend the fate even more by breaking the flow of affairs? It all depends on your choice.”

「Reward: Changes in history, depending on contribution」

「Failure: Extermination of elves, weakening of spiritism, disappearance of the World Tree… ….」

‘No, why the hell is the World Tree suddenly burning up?’

It was an ordeal to the point that even the nutmeg letters, which I hadn’t mentioned at all because I was a bit sassy these days, would come out on their own.
