Serdel turned away as she saw the carriage on which Falden was riding move away.

 

‘It’s strange.’

 

It was only after the Marquis of Spendar and Damon had first left that he kissed the back of her hand again and got into his carriage. 

 

He was an unpredictable person.

 

“Hey, what did you talk about with the 2nd Prince earlier?”

 

Redan grabbed her arm and wiped the back of her hand with a handkerchief.

 

“What are you doing, brother?”

 

“You got something dirty on you!”

 

“There’s nothing on it.”

 

“There is!”

 

Ha. She was dumbfounded, but Serdel just stayed still as he did that. 

 

It was also troublesome to bicker about this.

 

“What did the second prince talk to you about? Why did he call you separately? What took him so long to say, huh? Do you know that the two of you were out for over an hour? Hey, you must have left the door open when talking, right?” 

 

When she turned her head, Cartal and Addis were also looking at her with bewildered eyes.

 

In particular, both showed interest in Redan’s last words.

 

“Huh? Why aren’t you answering me? You talked with the door open, right?”

 

“…First of all, let’s go inside.”

 

Serdel, who took her hand out of Redan’s grasp, strode forward and paused only when she saw the butler. 

 

“Oh, come to think of it, I almost forgot. Butler, I have a question. I want you to be honest.”

 

“Yes, Lady, please tell me. This butler will always be honest.”

 

“Pills. Did you use it a lot?”

 

“No, I didn’t.”

 

In response to the butler’s sharp answer, Serdel glanced at Cartal. 

 

His shoulders flinched.

 

“…It was worth eating…”

 

If he meant it, he wouldn’t have lost his composure. She saw him eating two pieces of chocolate after drinking a glass of cold water. 

 

As if reading Serdel’s expression, the butler laughed.

 

“As I get older. If it’s good for the body, it’s sweet and delicious. The Master felt it was bitter because he was young, and the Lady was still young and also couldn’t eat it.” 

 

“But my brother ate really well.”

 

“Young Master eats everything given to him well. He’s not a gourmet.”

 

Redan’s eyes looking at the butler became cold.

 

“Hey. Don’t throw away your medicine. I’m going to watch you eat everything.”

 

For some reason, she became more afraid to eat.

 

Serdel glanced at Addis ,she looked healthy today. 

 

“I know you thought about handing it over to Sister. Sister, you know Medren Herbal Medicine, right?”

 

“How can I not know? Did they give you medicine? It would have taken quite a long time to get the medicine.”

 

After a moment of being startled, Addis placed her hand on Serdel’s shoulder. 

 

“Serdel, the medicine made there is very good. Even if you have money, you can’t easily buy it, and just because you have a lot of power, you can’t just make and eat it. Because it’s so popular, the line is huge. So make sure to eat well. It’ll be a great help to your physical strength.” 

 

“Did you hear that? It’s a medicine that you wouldn’t have had if you didn’t help the owner recently!” 

 

  

“…Okay. I’ll eat well, so stop it.”

 

With a sigh, she grabbed the bag tightly. It was terrifying to think of how Redan would behave if she lost it.

 

Still, it’s true that she’s grateful, so maybe she’ll have to repay it sooner or later. If so, what would be good? While she was thinking about it, she arrived at Cartal’s office just in time.

 

“Now, say it.”

 

Redan, who had put her on the chair first, pressed her from the side. 

 

After organizing her thoughts for a while, her mouth opened.

 

“His Highness Falden is—”

 

Except for the mercenary guild part, she confessed the rest of the story according to the situation.

 

“So, you mean now that the 2nd Prince decided to support with his five hundred men and wizards, not just one, but seven?” 

 

Redan asked, pressing his temple.

 

“Yes. He also wants to keep it a secret, so he asked me to use the ones hired by the Count.” 

 

“Why did he tell you such a thing? It must have been difficult to talk about it since Marquis Spendar was here earlier, but after that, it would be okay to stay and talk later.”

 

Addis’ eyes stiffened. 

 

“What is his purpose?”

 

“I think he wanted to test me. I’m not as strong as sister Addis, nor have I been holding a sword since I was young like my brother, but I wanted to go there and he wanted to figure out how helpful I would be.”

 

“Ha. I’ve heard rumors about him being a weirdo, but he’s a funnier prince than that.” 

 

Redan grumbled.

 

It was an eye that soon understood. To both of them, she was a younger sister, but to Falden and others, she was nothing more than a troublemaker with questionable abilities.

 

“Is that all?”

 

Cartal, who had been listening for a while, stared into her eyes.

 

“Really, that’s all.”

 

When he asked again, Serdel nodded.

 

For the time being, she had no intention of confessing about the mercenary business.

 

She didn’t want to bring it in the family because it might be dangerous until she went into mining and started trading in earnest. 

 

It’s even more tenuous because she’s decided to do it together with Falden. 

 

“Okay.”

 

Cartal said nothing more. 

 

Ever since the day he found out about her foresight dreams.

 

As always.

 

He accepted that if there was something she didn’t say in the first place, there would be a good reason for it.

 

“You can go. Good job for today.”

After leaving the office, Serdel looked at Addis and Redan’s back, walking one or two steps ahead of her.

 

“Do you have some time?”

 

The two of them were frozen like stones. They looked back at her. 

 

“…Huh?”

 

“…What did you say?”

 

It’s almost the first time Serdel has said something like this, so both Addis and Redan blinked blankly. 

 

Serdel passed between the two who had stopped.

 

“I have something to tell you.”

 

“Ooh time! I have. I have.”

 

“Hey, all that’s left is time.”

 

She took the two to her office.

 

Addis’ eyes, who had never seen Serdel’s office before, rolled around quickly from side to side because she had been busy.

 

“You decorated it well. Hmm?

 

Then, when she saw Dell lying on the sofa, she burst into exclamations.

 

“This child, this is a beast. Did you get it from the slave market?”

 

“Huh? This punk is a beast?”

 

Redan looked at Dell with surprised eyes.

 

Dell turned his head away. He seemed to hate Redan, who called him a rat when he looked at him. 

 

“Older Sister, how did you know he was a beast?”

 

“When subjugating, there were times when we ran into some of them. Most of them were wary of humans, but after signs of goodwill, they would often help.”

 

Addis reached out carefully to Dell with a smile.

 

Contrary to the fear that he might scratch her with his fingernails, Dell remained calm. 

 

The boy, who had avoided even the touch of the maid who took care of his meal, did not reject Addis’ warmth. 

 

“There were times when we saved them.”

 

Grrng, grrng.

 

“For knights, the beast is the most special friend you can meet in the forest. There is no knight that can’t recognize such a precious friend.”

 

Her appearance like this was unexpected and new.

 

She’s always been like this. 

 

The smile on her face at this moment looked very comfortable.

 

Serdel felt weird. 

 

In the past, they had never seen each other, and even in the second round where the relationship had changed a lot, Addis had never smiled so much in front of her. 

 

Her mouth was bitter, and emotions that were difficult to describe were creeping into her.

 

“Didn’t you say you had something to say?”

 

Serdel, who was absent-minded, came to her senses at Addis’ words. 

 

She nodded and sat down on the sofa first.

 

Addis and Redan sat side by side on the opposite side and waited for her words.

 

“It’s about exploring the Elbash Forest.”

 

“Oh, that’s right. Serdel, I think you should move with Reddan. If I could, I’d take responsibility for you, but I’m participating as the successor of the family and vice-captain of the imperial knight—you might be in danger if you’re with me—” 

 

“I want to move alone.”

 

“…What?”

 

“Hey! What are you—”

 

“I want to move alone. I need to find something in the forest.”

 

Originally, she didn’t mean to say anything before leaving.

 

Maybe she’ll bring Blenn along to help her solve it on her own somehow.

 

Like the day she got hurt while saving Laura and Dell.

 

But Addis and Redan’s faces seemed to overlap over Terra’s face, who was greatly hurt by her quiet attitude.

 

Perhaps she should have just kept her mouth shut and climbed onto the horse.

 

‘Then I must have really become a nuisance Young Lady.’
