My Fiancee Was the Villainess of This World

112 – Last Choice (2)

Time passed quickly.

My sister Rosaria was so picky that her days and nights changed and she would always burst into tears at her nanny’s hands.

Thanks to that, her mother was able to take care of him herself, and I had no choice but to concentrate on my studies.

Time passed so quickly that one year had passed since Rosaria was born.

And soon it was the end of May, the transition from spring to summer.

Her father revealed his plan to leave for the eastern region for talks with the feudal lords.

When her mother heard the story, she came to visit me at Biryong Pavilion for the first time in a long time.

“Also prepare Max in advance.”

She told her mother that she should seek recuperation in the eastern region, where the air and water are good.

Meetings with princely states, Eastern region, Liaoyang.

As those words passed through my head, I somehow felt like I had to go.

“I think it would be quite difficult to follow my father around.”

“hehehehe. Is it ‘recuperation’ after all? “Is this your first time in the County of Lvania?”

County of Lvania….

“Max?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

It was only for a moment, but I felt a sense of regret and sadness for some reason.

There was another place to stop by other than the County of Lebania.

For some reason, I felt like that thought kept passing through my mind.

“I will prepare.”

“hehehehe, it’s been a long time since I went on a picnic.”

As my mother said this, she stroked the head of Rosaria, who was sleeping soundly.

Rosaria was still a troubled girl who cried whenever she left her mother’s arms.

I will need a lot of help during this treatment.

“Shall we also recommend Dior?”

“I will tell you and come back.”

When I said that, my mother touched my head with a bright smile.

I felt embarrassed for some reason, so I bowed my head at her and hurried out of the room.

It is obvious where the Dior guy is anyway.

“Dior.”

“Brother, what’s going on?”

Dior, who had been playing the piano a little while ago, checked on me and bowed his head.

“This time, His Majesty is leaving for talks in the eastern region.”

“Ah… “I heard you, brother.”

“I also ended up following my mother.”

“Is that so?”

Dior muttered with a slightly mysterious expression.

“You too, follow me.”

“… Is that okay?”

“You’re my younger brother too, aren’t you?”

When I said that, Dior smiled brightly and left, saying he would get permission from his mother to come.

Dior used to strangely look between me and Linette’s mother.

He and I are also competing for the throne.

So maybe you are being told not to get too close to each other.

It was a relationship that felt a little bitter.

***

The County of Lvania was actually managed as a direct territory of the empire.

I don’t know the details, but I heard from her mother that she was originally the head of the Lebania count family, but when she married her father, who was the emperor, she had no one to manage the place.

“hehehehe, it’s been a while.”

Her mother sat on the sofa in the lord’s room of Count Levania, holding her Rosaria in her arms.

I felt a strange feeling that it seemed somehow awkward, yet also very fitting.

“Mother.”

“Are you the Count of Lebania here?”

Her mother said that and she laughed, covering her mouth.

“… Count Levania.”

“What’s going on, Your Highness?”

My mother looked at me with a playful expression.

“I think you should leave Rosaria to us and get some rest.”

I exchanged a look with Dior, who was standing next to me, and then told her mother.

My mother seemed to be worried for a moment.

“This is nursing. “You must act accordingly.”

“… “It’s a big problem because Max is such an unlovable child.”

My mother touched her cheek with a pitiful expression, but then she shook her head with an expression that said she couldn’t help it.

“Then can I ask Max?”

“Don’t worry.”

Dior and I carefully received the rosaria from our mother.

After handing us the rosaria, my mother must have relaxed slightly, covering the corners of her mouth as she yawned cautiously.

This person has been harassed by the picky Rosaria for over a year.

Now it is time to rest in peace.

After seeing off her mother with Dior, I was about to place Rosaria in the crib that the nanny had prepared for her.

But Rosaria seemed to have noticed the slightest movement and started tossing and turning her body.

“Your Highness Maximilian. Her Majesty Rosaria….”

The nanny trailed off her sentence with a very apologetic attitude.

I guess he was trying to explain how annoying Rosaria was.

“Give me swaddles.”

“Yes, Your Highness Maximilian.”

“Brother, I will do it.”

“It is done. “This girl is very picky and easily wakes up unless it’s me or her mother.”

I don’t know why, but Rosalia was someone who reacted like a ghost even while she was sleeping.

If you leave it to Dior, she will start crying, and her mother, who was taking a break, may come back.

In that case, it would have been better for me to take responsibility and take care of it.

“Can you excuse me for a moment, Your Highness?”

“Hmm.”

I gave Rosalia away with her in my arms.

The nanny carefully wrapped a swaddle around my body as if she was sorry.

“If possible, please let me hug you from now on.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The nanny used her skillful hands to wrap Rosaria in a swaddle that made it easier for me to hold her.

“Dior, can you help me a little?”

“Of course, brother.”

Dior was surprisingly a gentle person to children.

Her eyes would often light up when she looked at Rosaria, but she was so picky that she couldn’t see her often, which made her feel sad.

“Tongue, brother… ! Rosaria held my hand… !”

Is it because she keeps showing her face?

Unlike before, Rosaria began to show interest in Dior.

Dior must have felt good about it, as she carefully moved her index finger up and down in Rosaria’s hand.

“Don’t be too affectionate, Dior.”

I said that to Dior, whose eyes were shining.

“That…” What are you saying… ?”

Dior asked that question quite cautiously.

At that, I shrugged my shoulders and sighed.

“What if this guy later brings her man to be her husband?”

When I said that, Dior looked at me with a surprised expression.

It seemed like a future I had never even thought about.

“You have to save it in moderation. “Because he’s a nasty guy who will leave anyway.”

As I said that, I glared at Rosaria slightly.

“Ah!”

Crackling.

Rosalia seemed to like my expression and started laughing, tapping my face with her hand.

As Dior looked at Rosalia like that, she felt lost in thought in many ways.

Then she thrust her sword at the man Rosaria was going to bring, and I was worried that she was threatening that if she didn’t defeat me, she wouldn’t be able to take him.

After that, Dior became more thoughtful and helped me more actively than before.

The nanny helped us even harder than before, so we took care of Rosaria more carefully than we thought.

As a week passed, her mother seemed to have regained her physical strength considerably, and she appeared before us with a more relaxed expression than before.

“Max, Dior. Thanks to you, I had a good rest. “Well done to both of you.”

When her mother said that, she smiled with a soft expression.

Seeing her in better health than before was a moment that made me feel rewarded for doing my best to take care of Rosaria even though it was difficult.

Mother poked Rosaria’s cheek and smiled softly as she was napping less than before.

“She initially wanted to go to the County of Arvest.”

County of Arvest….

For some reason, hearing that name made her heart feel tight.

“It is definitely known as a fiefdom located at the end of the eastern region.”

“Oh my? “There are more than one territory on the continent of Arcradium. Do you know them all by heart?”

My mother covered her mouth with an expression of surprise.

She then hummed and cleared her throat slightly, then raised her index finger and started waving it in the air.

“Arbest is the best area in the East for nursing care.”

“Then why did you ask to come here?”

“I wanted to show it to our little lord in advance.”

Her mother said this and stroked Rosaria’s head.

It seemed like her mother wanted to pass on the County of Le Vania to Rosalia.

It felt like she hoped that Rosaria would carry on her dream of one day making the County of Le Vania into the most prestigious family in her empire.

“What kind of place is the County of Arvest?”

I had a faint feeling for some reason, so I looked towards where Count Arbest would be and asked that question.

“It is a place with lush greenery that makes you feel at peace. Above all, the sunflower fields are really beautiful.”

My mother sang about the scenery of the County of Arvest with a nostalgic expression.

I have never seen it with my own eyes.

But is it because the description of her mother is so vivid?

For some reason, the image of a beautiful hill full of sunflowers in full bloom flashed in my mind.

─ This is my… are you.

“Max… ?”

“Brother?”

I turned my head from the window to the slightly urgent question from the two people.

“What’s happening all of a sudden?”

I could feel the slightly perplexed looks of my mother and Dior.

As I traced her face to see what was going on, I found myself shedding tears without realizing it.

I don’t know why.

I suddenly felt like my heart ached so badly.

I shook my head, saying it was nothing, and stared blankly at the window again.

When I looked at that cold blue sky, my heart ached so much today.

As I was staring out the window blankly, my mother and Dior were talking about a trivial topic.

It was a story related to my fiancé.

“Brother, do you have someone in mind?”

“No.”

I firmly shook my head in response to Dior’s question.

I didn’t want to meet anyone right now.

No, to be exact, I am waiting for someone.

I just felt like I couldn’t remember who it was.

“Isn’t that what you are?”

“If you haven’t thought about it yet, how can I, your younger brother…?” .”

Dior spouted such nonsense and looked the other way.

He was still a guy with a good knack for getting things out of the way.

“So, will Max also have a fateful meeting at Soleil? hehehehe, I’m looking forward to it.”

“Soleil, what do you mean?”

“Yes, Soleil Mado Academy.”

Soleilura.

If I go there, will I be able to meet you, who keeps making me dizzy? .
