BOTB Chapter 23 (1) | I am not used to this familiar person

“Hey, Welcome.”

I looked up at Erich walking down the wagon and raised my hand as if to say hello.

“You…”

His eyes that looked at me were wide open at the same time. He was in an expression of doubt.

“What did you eat wrong?”

“Nothing.”

“Did you start protesting now? Did you even fight with brother?”

“No way.”

“Then is it a late rebel?”

He think of me in my rebellious face, and he was very impressed by my bad attitude. Hah, I did it.

Now I have a hammock chair next to the entrance on the first floor as I lay down and lay like a sloth on it, and now I was craving for work.

Moreover, when I went out with Louise a while ago, the thing I was buying was a black glasses.

Using this will help prevent glare from sunlight.

It was definitely less glaring, but I didn’t buy it by believing in its effectiveness.

I was wearing it, and I was satisfied because it seemed to be pretty cool.

If I use this for some reason, I should say that I looks a little more challenging because they can’t see my expression because their eyes are blinded.

One thing to do.

“I’m free to throw off this bridle of oppression that’s ever been redeeming me! Now, why don’t you become a wild youth in this new world with me?”

Erich hit his tongue at my invitation.

“It must be brother Cabel, I know it.”

He seemed to think that my deviation was due to the second brother.

Oh wait. By the way, am I just like Cabel now?! What, why is it a little humiliating?

“No, look in my eyes! You can be happy and laugh!”

“Oh, my eyes!”

Suddenly Erich, who came to me, reaching to my eyes, and the light that had been blocked so far suddenly came into my eyes, so I had to shudder with glare.

I lost my glasses.

“Oh, why do you suddenly take it away?”

“I came home after a long time, and now you did something strange.”

Erich didn’t peel off my face. He just took my glasses.

I even looked at the him with my eyes frowning and even tried to adjust them myself.

The glasses with black lens like this were mysterious when I first saw them.

Ha, He’s new. When a person plays a prank, it should have a taste that goes well.

Aa, he’s no fun.

“It suits you well. Just take it for you.”

I gave up on bringing Erich to the world of deviance.

Perhaps he noticed that I liked the sun-blocking glasses, so I just decided to give it to Erich.

“What? is this because of the wind?”

Erich almost fell down on the hammock chair and raised his eyebrows, looking at me waving my arms underneath.

Because of the black lens in the glasses, their eyes were blinded so they couldn’t read my exact look, but they thought very strangely about me.

I thought I knew as much as I did.

“I just wanted to open up a new horizon of life from now on.”

Mr. Gardener, who works outside, and the servants who go back and forth through the corridor inside the building, kept looking at me over the window.

I did try not to notice, but neverthless.

Erich seem noticed that I was talking about the noise of the people.

Well, it didn’t matter though.

“Would you like to have a snowball fight?”

Erich’s expressions has a suspicion over his eyes this time on my absurd words.

“Suddenly, why a snowball fight?”

“Aren’t you having a snowball fight with your friends at the Academy?”

“No kid, why do I’m acting so childishly?”

“Are you sure?”

I got off the hammock chair.

Ah, even if the sunbathing was the goal, it was cold, so I had to come down a bit because I wore thick clothes.

“You looks like a fat rabbit or a duck.”

Erich laughed at me.

Hmph.

It’s big, but Hubert and other servants didn’t want to let me out without this thick clothes because I shouldn’t get cold!

I wouldn’t have met my hammock chair until today is gone if I hadn’t worn it tightly.

“Erich.”

I stood down completely. I smiled at him.

“If you don’t want to have a snowball fight, you’re just a loser.”

Erich felt frustrated as if he felt something, but I was faster. I quickly picked up a round snowball hidden under the chair and threw it at Erich.

Pug!

Shhh, take it!

For this moment, just take the snowball made with a sloppy hand with all my heart!

“Hey, you cheated…!”

Puck!

Erich was amazed to know that I had made a snowball in advance.

It seemed embarrassing to realize that, regardless of his opinion, I was in the heart to fight.

Heh, I’m the winner in this area! The winner is already set, so just admit it!

“Isn’t this a scam? Did you intend to do this as soon as I come?”

“Hehe, is it still far?”

“How many of you made this snowballs?!”

At first, it seemed as if the end of the bomb, to Erich, who had just been hit, could not be seen.

Wick!

Soon he attempted a counterattack!

But I avoided his eyes. Heh, since I was young, my nickname was Mellinton’s flying squirrel!

Do you think that snowball like that cotton ball can hit me?

“Ahaha, idiot! I knew I was right…. Ugh!”

Perhaps!

But the first one was a deception. I was forced to stop talking because I was hit by a snowball that flew in a row.

“Hey, wait…”

“Wait a minute.”

Puck, Fuah!

Erich says, “Wait!”

While shouting or saying, I threw my eyes at him.

I also did not rest and teased him with my arms, and suddenly my surroundings were full of white snow that was flying.

“Hyuk. It’s quite good right?”

“Yeah, heo.. You’re pretty good heh?”

And finally, as the fog-covered eyes slowly subsided, we breathed a good breath and smiled at each other.

A thundering lightning struck between Erich and me. It’s almost 10 years since we burn a fight on each other.

This is the first time since years ago.

“Truce?”

“Truce.”

We agreed to take a break.

Oh hoo, it’s sax.

After a long period of vigorous exercise, my limbs are creaking. I sneaked my hand away from Erich’s eyes.

“Hey, will you keep cheating?”

At that time, Erich saw me sneaking my eyes and hit him first.

He turned his head and shouted away from the snow scattered in front of his eyes.

“You’ve decided to truce!”

“What’s the ceasefire?”

The second act of blood-blinking snowball fights rose.

We threw our eyes at each other with all our might, as if we were 8-year-olds and not 18-year-olds.

And this time it stretched faster than before.

“Hyuk, Huk. You’re so strong.”

“That’s normal.”

He said, both of us were no longer able to throw snowballs, but we were making fun with our mouths.

Oh, it was fine until the first game, but after doing this twice in a row, I’m going to die.

“Because of you, my clothes are completely snow covered.”

“It looks good, what I did.”

I giggled at the grumbling Erich.

Contrary to the first thought, it was a very serious fight, but it was fun to have a snowball fight after a long time.

“Do you want to play the third game?”

“Oh, I can’t, I can’t. I had enough.”

“Uh, are you surrendering now? Then am I winning?”

“You do whatever you want.”

Erich’s expression seemed to say,

‘This is a tough thing.’

I looked at his face and burst into laughter.

“Then, let’s go in.”

We moved with a good brush between our eyes when we had a passionate snowball fight.

“Brother Cabel is on guard at night.”

“Why do the 2nd division do that?”

“I don’t know, they’re saying that newcomers should do everything.”

“Is he still new to them?”

“Well, even then, brother Cabel is such a great man right?”

“That’s right.”

Erich and I stepped into the mansion without any worries about Cabel so much that we knew he gonna do well.

Wow, but this is a very valid idea.

“Would you like me to order for a warm tea?”

As soon as we went indoors, Hubert asked.

“Then two glasses of cocoa.”

“Not a cocoa, what a kid.”

I didn’t know this natural law of having not to eat cocoa after the original snowball fight!

I went to the fireplace with Erich and insisting on one cocoa, whether Erich was embarrassed or not.

Hubert smiled at us for a long time. After nodding, he left.

“Well then, where is the escort? I can’t see him?”

It was a mysterious shape because he couldn’t see the Ethan on my side.

“It’s a holiday today.”

“Holiday? Was there anything like that?”

“It is from now on. One day a week.”

“You’re completely negligent? Rather, what you’ve eaten so far? Throw it!”

Oh, in the next country, it’s said that five days a week is common workdays, and Arlanta needs to introduced to this new system, too!

“It’s good because I can’t see him anyway.”

On his face, there was an expression that seemed to be absent-minded. Seeing it, I kicked my tongue.

“Why haven’t you been well with Sir Ethan since long ago?”

“You’re unlucky.”

“No, what?”

“It’s all funny from head to toe.”

Where else is a sincere and polite man like Ethan.

But then, he turned around and looked at me. He creased his face as if he suddenly realized something he had passed without thinking.

It’s been like over a year since Erich replied,

“Wait. But what are you, you’re calling the child by name?”

“It’s been over a year since we’ve been together, it’s also the time for us to be natural.”

I hurriedly replied.

Rather, it could be said that it was too late to come up and start calling on the escort by name, but Erich’s thought was different.

“Is the escort life so hard? Just call it an escort, or a knight. There is a word that can be used in its own way, or Bishop.”

Oh, it’s starting again. I listened to Erich’s words and replied,

‘Yeah, yeah.’

“Do listen!”

“Oh, I got it. Ah, Cocoa is here!”

At that moment, the maid came up with the cocoa and I was finally freed from Erich’s nagging.

“Oops, if you want to come, do not make a noise.”

I knew that Eugene was home late and went to his room.

Today I play with Penny with Erich and I was being insane for a while with them, so I didn’t even know Eugene was home.

Even now, Eugene was just sitting on the sofa and skimming through the unknown papers that appear to be documents.

At the table in front of him, a cup of hot steam was prepared.

I don’t know what the reason is, but Eugene seemed to have a busy day between the inner and outer palaces these days.

“I didn’t call because I thought you might be resting.”

Eugene saw me and lowered the paper he was holding onto his lap. I walked into the room and asked him.

“Aren’t your expression is not bright? Is it not going well?”

“No. It’s not like that. I’m just a little tired.”

Even after the last days, Eugene and I treated each other with the usual attitude.

At first glance, our relationship has never changed. Still, there is the feeling that our psychological distance was probably narrower than before.

“If there is anything I can do to help, please tell me.”

Of course, I didn’t think I could be able to help Eugene do anything directly. But if there was anything else that could help him, I wanted to do anything.

Then Eugene, who looked at my face silently for a while, finally lifted his lips.

“Then come and hug me.”

At the moment, I wondered,

‘Did I hear it wrong?’

He had a face that didn’t change his expression, despite what he had just said, but as Eugene lifted his hands and spread his arms apart, I realized that his words were sincere.

Looking at me doubting my ears, Eugene did tilted his head at an angle.

“Why? You used to be like that sometimes.”

I was embarrassed, but Eugene wearing a very casual look.

Indeed, as he said, several times in the meantime, I hugged him first. Not long ago too, when I met Lavender Cordis…

However, it was very embarrassing when Eugene asked me for it.

But when I saw him staring at me as if he was urging me, I felt like I was a rather strange person who is hesitating now.

I faltered in a chaotic state and approached Eugene.

Why is this situation so strange that a question mark came to my mind in my head.

But I couldn’t stop walking because the person in front me was waiting for me with a perfectly calm face.

“There…”

However, when the distance between Eugene and me narrowed, I felt awkward and hesitated, but without a deep thought, Eugene pulled my wrist in front of him.

“Oh! Come on, wait a minute…!”

The very next moment, a leaked voice burst out of my mouth.

I shuddered and shook my body with a shocked face.

Because now It look like I’m in Eugene’s lap!

Why, why did he become like this?

At best, I thought about hugging Eugene, who still sits, and only hugs him once!

Never this come to my mind!

“It’s okay. Stay still.”

I jumped and struggled to get up again, but Eugene never budged. He whispered to my ear, and I screamed inside.

It’s not okay! It’s not okay!

However, as soon as my body was surrounded by warmth, I felt hard and turned white.

Eugene tightened my waist with a tight arm and pulled my back to him and make our body came into contact more tightly.

I stopped breathing with Eugene’s chest on my face. I could feel his shallow breath passing over my head.

The refreshing scent from Eugene’s usual scent stimulated the sense of smell closer than ever.

A body temperature slightly higher than me has been transmitted from our tightly-fitting body.

This was really weird. Not a little. A lot.

Besides, It seems long and it’s not that I’m not very good at first.

And something, something….

I couldn’t last long and pushed Eugene away from me. Obviously, Eugene must have noticed my condition.

But the next moment, the arm surrounding my body became harder for some reason.

“Oh, brother?”

Even as I called, Eugene even buried his head deeper above my nape.

“Ah, Aa, I, I wish you could stop..”

A stuttering voice leaked out from my mouth. As I think, now I was very embarrassed.

“Nope.”

But Eugene refused my request. I was just more embarrassed than ever before because I didn’t know he would answer like this.

“Why….”

“I think it’s still not enough.”

My ears were tickling because of the voice ringing from my back.

I was about to die.

My heart seemed to be heard by Eugene as It start jumped and started jumping without stopping.

I couldn’t even breathe properly, because I seemed to catch him with my agitation.

But Eugene didn’t know my conditon and still held me tight.

“Don’t do that and let me go…”

“You didn’t let me go when I asked you to.”

Oops, at that moment, I wanted to see if this was a revenge of the old days from him.

Strange. It’s really weird.

If it were the original Eugene, he would have avoided it even if I tried to catch him.

“Hugging once like this is better than I thought.”

Suddenly his hand passed through my back.

“Yes, I didn’t know it before, but it’s not bad.”

The voice that flowed gently as if he knew my troubles seemed to soothe me. The hand touching my head was very friendly.

His face is invisible that his expression is not visible as I thought so.

Uh, for some reason, I felt like I was very pretty held by Eugene, so I felt strange.

So as I being touched and held by him, for some reason my body became languishing, so I began to relax slowly.

I still felt that the current situation was a bit strange, but the thought of, ‘What if I wanted to do it?’ passed my mind.

However, such a comfortable feeling did not last long.

Is it because of the mood?

When It seemed that the touch that touched me from a moment I couldn’t seem know exactly, have changed slightly.

Somehow his movement of skimming the back of my head and my back diligently dug into my senses.

At the same time, the temperature of Eugene and the air surrounding me gradually changed.

I was confused and questioned in a more intense silence than before.

Great.

“Brother, are you here?”

At that moment, the sense that had been flying away came back.

Erich’s voice came from outside.

When I shriek, Eugene comforted me, and he put his back on my ears and gently shouted “Sshh”.

I tried to raise my body, but I couldn’t help it because his arms around my waist weren’t released.

Did I lock the door when I entered the room earlier? It could not have been.

I was so nervous that Erich would open the door and come in right now. He will, think too, our posture is a little….

….no, it’s a little strange, right?

Eugene pretends not to be in the room as it is and not intend to return Erich’s call from the outside. He did not answer the incoming call.

“Brother? You’re not in the room?”

Still, I couldn’t be restless and twisted my body and try to ask him to let me go as Eugene looked at me.

I quickly got up from his knees, stepped back, and hit the table.

When he heard a rattling sound inside, Erich, who was outside, once again said and called Eugene,

“Brother?

Unlike me, who has struggling, Eugene calmly gets up from his seat and approaches the door.

Soon after he opened the door, Immediately, a mysterious voice flew.

“Uh, what is it? You were in the room? But why didn’t you answer?”

“I didn’t hear you because I was focusing on documents that need to deal with urgently. Why?”

“No, I don’t see Hari, so I wonder if she’s with you, and she said she might be in your room?”

Erich was not seen where I stood. I dismayed as I heard my name from his mouth.

“No, she’s not here. Have you try to find her in the piano room or greenhouse?”

“Oh, I haven’t been to the greenhouse, but I’ll try to go there. Then continue what my brother first did. I’m sorry to interrupt.”

The conversation did not last long. Soon Eugene closed the door and turned around.

I struggled and pretending to tell him.

“I’ll go out and see.”

However, Eugene looked at the door and shook his head.

“Erich has just gone. It would be better to wait a bit before going out.”

I tried to avoid Eugene as he approaching me and step back, but his hands were faster than my feet.

Until now, I rubbed against his chest, and his slow hand sat down on my messy hair.

“Just…”

But it was because of a little while ago, and I kept feeling his hand differently..

“Just go now.”

Eventually, I escaped from Eugene and left the room.

Just before leaving his door, I turned my head and put Eugene in my sight. He is looking at me silently with his black eyes like a bird.

Both my eyes became stiff at his gaze, and I hurriedly closed the door.

And I ran to my room as if someone is chasing me.

Taang!

A sharp gunfire rang.

I noticed the smell of ammunition coming slowly and moved my gaze.

After a while, the servant who drove the animal appeared behind the tree. Soon Dice groaned as he saw his arms raised and drawing an X.

“I think you’re not focused?”

“Well, I guess I’m not today.”

The answer to my cautious question came back.

Dice usually had a fairly high rate of hitting skills until white-haired white-collar, but today he has never hit a target.

Suddenly, Dice gave me the gun he was holding.

“Would you like to give it a try?”

“I’m sorry. I can’t stand the imagination that even the small animals are hurting, as I have a heart that is unbearable. You know, my heart is a little tender and pretty.”

However, instead of accepting it, I shook my head and looked at him with a watery look.

Of course, Dice was going to see my explicit acting without difficulty.

Indeed, he lowered his arm with a slightly flirty look on my shameless sound.

“The more I know about the amount, the more different the Lady is from the first impression?”

“The more I look at your highness, the more attractive he is.”

“…”

Dice remained silent to my desperate answer.

“Well, maybe it’s because of the mood, the Lady seems to gradually resemble Lord Cabel… Ah, no, I’ve made a statement.”

Following that, as I gradually lost my laughter, Dice was dismayed and immediately canceled his word.

Thinking of himself, it seemed to me that the resemblance to Cabel was too much.

Well, Good god. The handling of the second brother in my house is too trivial.

Even though I can make a cold expression with the words of Dice unintentionally, I also like Dice, who expresses his sorry for me.

“Why don’t you stop and resting now?”

I opened my mouth looking at the hand like a frozen die. Then he nodded.

“Go over there.”

Dice was waiting behind me.

After passing the long hunting gun to the ground, this time an archer came over and handed him a leather glove. Dice moved with his hands on it.

“But the weather is warm today.”

“I think this winter is definitely warm compared to the previous year.”

With Dice, I headed to a resting place on one side of the hunting ground.

When faced with him with a table in between, Dice opened his mouth with a mug of white steam coming up.

“It’s weird. I think the atmosphere of the Lady is a little different from now.”

He squinted his eyes wide open and tilted his head diagonally, as if to measure something.

I laughed happily at him.

I was able to guess why Dice is telling me this now. After drinking a sip of tea and quenching my neck, I said.

“Now I want to stop trying to be Arina.”

His eyes was round, facing what I was saying as it was unexpected.

He seemed to be thinking about who ‘Arina’ that came out of my mouth for a moment, but soon he opened his mouth like he realized something.

“If you think about it, I think I’ve been trying to act like her unconsciously.”

Then I continue as Dice doesn’t seem to understand.

“But the Lady has never seen her before.

It’s kind of like that and maybe your brothers doesn’t remember her well too.”

“Yes, I guess it was because I was a fool.”

Practically no one has ever forced me to do that.

Even the dead Ernst couple, who had brought me to replace the appearance of Arina, never said, ‘Behave like Arina,’ even in their empty words.

But as I got older and met other people, it seems that Arina, who died within me, slowly revived.

“Sometimes, before I did something, I would have thought of her like if she had been a woman of this age, what she will have done?”

I tried to mimic other ladies and nobles and try to be like them, but in fact it wasn’t them that I wanted to look like the most.

“While doing that, the girl I saw in the portrait grew older with me in me.”

It would have been nice if I was born as a real Arina Ernst, as I’ve heard that words sometimes.

“So I mean, in the meantime, unconsciously, It is the same as me acting by imitating the imaginary Arina.”

I still laughed, touching the warm mug.

Of course, that was the old story, and now I didn’t think so.

“But I’m Hari Ernst. That doesn’t change.”

And now I liked that I am ‘Hari Ernst’.

“Now I think I can accept that.”

If I was in the past, I would not have thought of this.

Hari Ernst, 27, was the same, but it felt like a significant change in what was important to me happened now.

“The Lady is a brave one.”

Dice, who was quietly listening to me, suddenly opened his mouth and said so.

“Your highness is one of the people who gave me the courage to tell.”

“Me?”

“Yes, whatever I used to be, you told me that I’m an Ernst now.”

“It’s just that. It’s not me. It was just the Lady could change herself.”

But for some reason, the face of such Dice looked a bit bitter.

Of course, it’s an after image that has passed by very instantaneously, so I didn’t know exactly what I saw.

This was even more so blurred, as soon as Dice chuckled with a joke and laughed as usual.

“I think the Lady is a better person than I thought. When will we really get married?”

“That joke is not fun.”

“Yeah, actually, your brothers being

‘my brothers’ are a little bit too much for me.”

We got up from our seats after chatting for a while while we were giving and receiving from each other.

Spring has just arrived.

The hammock chair I put out for some reason became the title of Cabel.

“Wow, this is really nice! I want to have it!”

It’s definitely comfortable, but I come over there, everyone stares at me with anxiety, and in the winter it’s decisively cold, so I’m not approaching that chair for now.

So, the servants are cautious to Cabel and left the chair there.

Of course, Cabel was ignorant that he didn’t even know their inside mind and that just thought it was just good.

The second brother was that he didn’t get cold easily, so he used to use that hammock chair.

Cabel, who took a nap without turning his body over a tangled fabric, was like a caterpillar in a cocoon.

“Oh, Kerr!”

… Of course, his snoring sound was like a sleeping brown bear.

In the spring, Erich returned to the academy after a short vacation.

However, I don’t know how troubled he was during the winter when he said he would drop out of school.

In the academy, there’s nothing to learn from, what the hell he’a saying?

Why doesn’t he struggle at the Academy! What, does he mean he’s to be an unexploited genius?

It’s not long before his graduation.

However, it seems that the time he attended was not a waste. Ho, is that it? Rebellion that comes to the children of adolescents once!

Good god, it seems to be right because I see the eyes of others seeing Erich and me.

I also had things to do during the winter, so I had to sweat secretly in the eyes that treated us as a pair.

Still, it was spring when the words he said during the vacation weren’t very sincere, as Erich returned to the academy again and I was glad.

“Penny!”

And one day, I became free and alone again.

I was wandering all over the mansion looking for Penny. Naturally, Penny, who I knew she was somewhere in the house, was nowhere to be seen.

Did she go out to the garden? I was going to take her for a walk.

When I asked the servant who was walking through the hall, I went up the stairs because he seemed to have seen Penny upstairs.

“Penny!”

“Woof!”

Oh, at the end of the hallway, I heard a dog barking. I think it’s in Erich’s room.

I stepped in the direction I heard Penny. Then, in Erich’s room with the door open, I found a gold-haired puppy.

“Penny, you’re here!”

I found it, yo!

“Woof woof!”

Hyuk, but obviously Erich’s door would have been closed, but how did you get inside this? Did Penny open the door by herself?

When I checked the height of the doorknob, it seemed that if Penny walked upright, she could pull it with her front foot enough.

“Oh wow, my Penny, you’re so smart.”

Besides, Penny was a very special puppy from the past, so I was convinced even so.

“Are you here to see Erich?”

“Woof!”

Yes, yes, during the vacation, she stayed with Erich every day and now he’a back again. He’s been here, so it’s worthwhile to be empty.

I stroke Penny’s hair as she biting and playing with Erich’s slippers and then suddenly found it on the table.

It was the black glasses I gave to Erich before.

Child, he noticed that the glasses were so good that he left them in the room.

After all, how about bringing it to academic academy?

I got up and headed to the table. And I tried to wear black shiny glasses after a long time.

After that, looking at the mirror in front, I was very satisfied.

Hah, sooner or later I’m going to see some young ladies. This is why I can be a little too much and I don’t think anyone can see me with ease.

I took a long time and I looked at myself from various angles and muttered eloquently.

“This is why I have a charisma.”

“Is that a new trend these days?”

“Evil, surprise!”

Then I screamed at the sound in my neck leaking from the side.

As I turned my head in amazement, Eugene, standing at the door, came into my view.

Seeing that he was leaning against the wall with his arms folded, I don’t think he just came right now, but I didn’t know since when he was standing there.

“I think I haven’t seen one person who wears it outside. It’s definitely impressive.”

Ugh, embarrassing!

I was so embarrassed with Eugene that I heard he say the appearance of the ‘glasses show’, so I was so frustrated that I raised my voice.

“Wow, why don’t you tell me why you’re standing and looking like that?!”

“I tried to do tell you, but you looks pretty enjoyable.”

Eugene’s eyes that looked at me were quite mysterious.

What is this…

Is it similar to the reaction that Cabel saw in the last ‘Remark of liver and gallbladder’?

Uh, no, I’m not like that!

“Try this too brother!”

Hmph, I can’t be humiliated! I approached Eugene in a hurry and put glasses on his face. And immediately disappointed.

Uh… Why is there no humiliation?

I was expecting a little funny look, but Eugene in black glasses didn’t look any funny.

Eugene, who added his charisma by wearing glasses, tilted his head at an angle while looking at me.

Ah, you don’t, you don’t.

I got steamed off and took off the glasses on his face again.

“It’s not fashionable yet, but it will be fashionable soon, well.”

But! to me! How are you going to make it like that? It’s just groundless defeat. Oh damn.

“Yes, that’s what you like, wear it.”

As always, Eugene said, ‘Do whatever you want to do.’

Maybe it was because I was pinched, so he was like trying to appease me.

“I’m going to go for a walk with penny, would you like to go with us?”

“I have to go out now.”

“Then wait.”

I’m holding Eugene before I see his off. I turned to try to put my glasses back to where they were.

Well? But a book on the table suddenly caught my eye. I didn’t recognize it at first because I was interested in glasses.

But the book cover was very girly and gorgeous. Uh, does Erich read all these books?

I inadvertently picked up the book and immediately became frustrated.

「Danish’s dire and dangerous education.」

Ugh, what is the title of this desired book?! Danish’s dire and dangerous education?

As I watched, a pair of men and women were depicted on the book cover.

It wasn’t a very sophisticated picture, so I could only see the silhouette of the figure, but the woman in the picture seemed to be wearing a maid suit.

Indeed, does the word maid appear in the title? No?

Well, was it just because of the mood? For some reason, the maid’s suit the woman was wearing seemed quite unprecedented.

Why Is there a flirty stocking from the maid’s thighs? This is southernly!

In addition, the size of the clothes was small, and the woman’s body in the picture seemed to appear to be unnatural.

Have I ever seen this inefficient maid’s suit?

And what else is this sensual rose flower background!

That alone was overwhelming, and even the cover had subtitles.

“From one to ten, let me know with a hot and sweet touch!”

“What is it?”

The moment Eugene asked, I was amazed and reflexively hid the book.

Ugh! I hid it without my knowledge!

However, this could not be seen by Eugene.

He will be surprised too, this is it! Red and vicious books that vigorous boys and girls sneak up on adults!

No, it’s not just boys and girls, even the grown-ups who are recklessly trying to sneak away from others’ attention!

Ugh, Erich! This third brother ah!

There is no one who beats boys of the age of puberty and does not hide a painted book under their bed!

No, but still, why did he put this book on the table like this? Did he imposing or shameless?!

“Eh, I think it’s Erich’s book. Haha, I should send it to the academy.”

I giggled and laughed awkwardly.

Of course, Erich seemed not to be worried about whether Eugene looked at this or not, but I was still in trouble and embarrassed.

I would rather think that if I had reacted naturally at the moment I first saw this, he might not know, and I hid the book behind, ignoring the call of Eugene.

But the next moment, Eugene was approaching me and reaching out.

“Then give it to me. Anyway, sooner or later I was going to the academy.”

Well, no! You’re Eugene, who goes to school to tell his brother about his coloring book? No way!

As soon as I imagined, I was frightened because the picture was not good.

“Oh, why should you?!”

“Why are you so embarrassed?”

Of course, Eugene noticed suspiciousness from me. His eyebrows were asymmetry, and he went up and down.

“Please give it to me.”

He opened his eyes narrowly behind my back. He reached out to the hidden book.

Oh, but it can’t be taken away! I hid my hand with the book behind my back.

“What is it?”

“That’s just a book.”

Eugene did not believe me. He once again stretched his arms to my back, but I was faster!

Eugene’s eyes were frowned at me, as he failed to take the paint books in my hand.

Oops, suddenly I remembered things when we were young. At that time, he was in trouble because of the candy Mrs. Ernst gave me.

But now Eugene is doing this and suddenly felt like he was back as a child, so I felt a little strange.

Ugh! Wick!

“No, it’s nothing, so why are you wondering?”

“I become more curious because you are trying to hide it.”

Of course, there was no intention to let my things to be taken away by Eugene from that time or now. Hah, look at me as I changed between 10 years ago and now!

…. I took a step widely!

Eh? Suddenly the wall touched my back.

While avoiding Eugene’s hands, I probably stepped back. Then there’s nothing to avoid him?

“Oh.”

To make matters worse, Eugene held my hand to him. I looked at Eugene and stucked between him and the wall.

Are you going to take away what I’m holding right now? Will you?

I looked up at Eugene with strange expectations that would make someone laugh when they heard it.

Would you like to laugh with a cheerful expression after pulling a book out of my hand, as when you were a child?

And maybe after that, you might be a little humble saying that you did something that wasn’t mature.

Oh, I seemed to want to see Eugene’s reaction like when he was still a child like back then again.

But he did not.

“…..”

Eugene didn’t say anything, just stood in motion and looked down at me. In the deep gaze falling from the top of my head, I also lost my words.

As I tried to make my eyes up close, I felt as if my inner heart was being read to him.

Suddenly, something happened to Eugene that seem different than a while ago, and my face’s heat rose.

Eventually, I couldn’t see him for a long time, and I looked away.

“Just… it’s a normal book. My brother is busy, so I’ll take care of it.”

And as I twisted my wrist off, the warmth overlaid on it fell off.

“Now you have to go out and go carefully. Take care.”

I send him off with a smile. Eugene was still standing there.

Originally I was going to see him off to the front door, but I just thought it would be good to just say hello.

I wondered why Eugene’s silence lasted, and I wondered if something was caught by him.

“….Yeah, I’ll go. The book is for you.”

Fortunately, this time he stepped back from me without saying anything else.

I look back at Eugene walking figure.

It wasn’t long before his back figure completely disappeared from my field of view, then I drew a deep breath and released the strength from my body.

At some point in time, my gaze was focused on the book that I was grasping so hard that my hand was stiff.

Ugh! Third brother, you should thank me! You must know that I’ve tried this way to protect your honor!

“Danish’s dire and dangerous education for a master.”

Ugh, when I see it again, the title is really that way. Just put it where it waw? Or instead of Erich, would It better if I hide it under his bed or in the chest of drawers?

I was thinking about how to do this for a moment, and then I remembered the existence I had forgotten and raised my head as if I was in trouble.

“Penny!”

I didn’t see how soon Penny left the room. I took Erich’s book in my hand and went out to find Penny again.

******

“Wow, awesome….”

That night I experienced a new world. In my hand was a book from Erich’s room today.

Yes, I would only look at this book in curiosity!

And the moment I covered the book after reading the last page, I muttered blankly. Child, it’s hot. Why is my cheek so hot?

Like that. I ready that The Master taught the maid from one to ten. Hmm, hmm.

In fact, it is not that I did not know the existence of book like this itself.

Throughout my past life and this life, I also knew that there were books like this at the first glance from young lovers, but it is the first time I had ever read such books.

I’m saying that young ladies and the married ladies, who usually only seemed quiet and negative, were reading this book without my knowledge.

Whoa ah.

I was deeply impressed with the new world I first encountered. I just unfolded it with curiosity, but this amazing story was hidden.

Suddenly the book in my hand looked a little different from the first.

I pondered for a moment and then concealed what I was holding in my hand behind the cushion with the thought of reading the book again tomorrow.

Hmm, Erich will come home at the end of the week at the earliest, so I’ll just put it back where it was.

Ha, it’s hot by the way.

I fanned my hands and fluttered, and after a while, I sneaked out to the book behind the cushion and secretly fell in love again.
