I couldn’t figure out why I came to the garden. Zen too seemed to have noticed my unusual condition and kept glancing in my direction with a worried face.
‘…Let’s not do this, I need to come to my senses now.’
I was somewhat dazed, biting my lip to steady my breathing. After calming down to an extent, I spoke to Zen.
“Let’s go back now. It’s already over 5 minutes.”
“Yes, got it!”
Zen summoned Ventus and immediately transported the both of us to the garden of Valentino Castle.
I blinked to clear my vision. As I saw the familiar scenery, a strange sense of stability came over me.
…I returned safely without being caught. The plan was successful because we obtained physical evidence that could persuade the other noble households.
Still, my heart was beating unsteadily.
‘Father… No, I don’t even want to call him ‘Father’. Such a person.’
He’s planning to turn an innocent girl into a tool for the Everett family again.
…I could never just watch that happen. Did he say the Eloise Orphanage? I have to go there tomorrow morning and see it.
‘Before Duke Everett adopts the child, I will bring her in first.’
After deciding what to do, the shock subsided and I felt calm. After taking a deep breath for a moment, I slowly closed and opened her eyes, then turned to Zen and said,
“Let’s hurry. Let’s go to the dining room.”
“Yes, r-right!”
Zen nodded his head eagerly with a surprised expression for some reason. I was surprised by that reaction, but I passed it off.
‘It’s now been about six minutes over… It might not be too late. It would be difficult to arouse Owen’s suspicion.’
…But it didn’t seem to matter much if he suspected it. Because we have obtained truly solid evidence. With this, it would be possible to recruit not only the queen and crown prince, but also other noble families.
‘…Duke Alvinith is a bit ambiguous, though.’
Will the neutral House Alvinith really want to step on this turbulent situation…? Well, unless there was a clear guarantee of victory and profit, they would continue taking an ambiguous attitude, as if sitting on a fence. History had proven that House Alvinith had no sense of justice or loyalty. They’re such petty people.
‘Furthermore, Duke Alvinith is suspicious of Theodore because of Adeline’s disappearance.’
Duke Alvinith would never know. What did Adeline do? And who should he take revenge on?
The price Adeline paid must all be seen as retribution, but Duke Alvinith will not admit it.
Whatever Adeline’s sins, he will seek to avenge his daughter.
…So it was even more likely that House Alvinith would not help House Valentino. Maybe the Duke would stick with House Everett.
‘…Duke Alvinith and the wizards under him are difficult opponents, but they are no match for the crown prince’s teacher.’
The crown prince’s teacher, the great sage Philistine, was the best wizard in the kingdom in name and reality.
…Well, Derek, the wizard of the Valentino family, is also very talented.
‘There is no need to worry too much about the Alviniths. Rather… Duke Everett and Owen’s dark spirits are troublesome.’
As I walked briskly, I soon arrived at the entrance of the main house.
I stopped for a moment and looked around. Charlotte was supposed to wait…
“Madam!”
At that moment, I heard Charlotte calling, and when I turned around, I saw Charlotte quickly approaching me.
“Madam, there’s big trouble!”
“What’s the matter? What’s going on?”
My heart skipped a beat when I heard that there was big trouble. Could it be that Owen noticed? …Well, since he has a very sensitive personality, he may have sensed something suspicious.
But the evidence has already been secured…
“You have to go to the training grounds right now, Madam!”
“……?”
I flinched and blinked at the word training ground that suddenly popped out.
…The training grounds? Out of the blue…
‘Ah, there’s no way…’
“Did the Duke challenge Owen and Hessen to a duel?”
Could it be that Theodore, unable to control his anger, impulsively threw his glove? My heart felt tight.
“What? No, that’s not it! They’re sparring, not having a duel, so don’t worry about that! But… Since Lord Owen first challenged Duke Valentino to spar, something feels wrong. Lord Owen is not the kind of person who would do something without thinking, is he? I wonder if there’s a plan…”
“…….”
I’m glad it wasn’t a duel, but I also understood very well what Charlotte was worried about.
After looking around, I took out the necessary documents from my arms. I then handed it to Charlotte and insisted.
“Charlotte, please take these documents to the second safe in my room. Just in case, be careful not to get caught by anyone.”
“Ah…! Yes, I understand, Madam!”
The second safe was a safe hidden deep in the dressing room. Only Charlotte and I knew the exact location of it.
It could only be opened with two keys, one I had and the other Charlotte had.
Charlotte clenched her fists as if to say to trust her, and then she ran towards the stairs leading upstairs.
