<Episode 74> Someone embraced my body. When I took an exasperated breath, we were already at home. How could I cross such a long distance in a moment? I seemed to have fainted on the way. "You almost got struck by lightning and turned into a crispy treat.” After going through all the trouble of saving someone's life, all he had to say was just that. The relationship between this man and me was undoubtedly twisted. Otherwise, from the day I brought him home until this…-

<Episode 75> Afterwards, I searched the mansion thoroughly for a long time to try and find Rue. However, for some reason, Rue was nowhere to be seen. It was as if he’d evaporated into the air, without leaving a trace. "Um, Miss Daisy! What are you doing? You should be taking a rest!" I was scolded by Lenya. "Have you seen Rue?" "What? The C-Calepa.." It seemed like she didn’t understand what I was talking about, so I decided to ask about it from…

<Episode 76> The first day I returned to the Weatherwoods without Rue, I got scolded by the head maid. "What dangerous thing did you get involved in? I told you to take a good rest, relax and come back after delivering the letter. You even got hurt this time!" “That’s not what matters right now. Mr. Rue betrayed us. From now on, the Head Maid will have to cook.” "...That sounds like a serious matter. Please explain in detail." In detail, huh? Where should I start…

<Episode 72> Traces of the first oath. With whom and where did I make this pledge? As I pondered this question, memories of the past, trapped deep in the dark abyss I had built over the past 14 years, resurfaced. * * * * Imperial Southern Archipelago. The small island located at the southernmost tip of the archipelago, Queen Island. On that day, I was swimming at the beach. "Puha!" Damn it. Another failure today. After roughly…

<Episode 78> Jean looked confused on whether to believe me or not. Rue wasn’t here anyway, so I couldn’t prove it. I’d just have to confront her with a sword later. I reached for a suitable pen on Rue’s desk to prepare a response to the letter. However, I then suddenly remembered the presence I had forgotten and raised my head. "But why are you here?" Andert, with a disgruntled face, was sitting on the couch, glaring at me. "You're only asking that…

<Episode 79> While I packed a simple suitcase, the bandit maid and servants crossed over from Rue’s mansion. Seeing that the maid was smiling with satisfaction, it looked like they did a great job at their interviews. “We’re going now.” "Have a safe trip, Miss Daisy and Jean. Please return quietly without any incident, safely and with Mr. Rue. When did you say you'd be back?" "After ten days." "Okay. I'll see you then." After picking up her luggage, Jean…

<Episode 77> “Why?” “You’re asking why now?” After that, she gave a 20-minute speech on why I should not take Jean with me. Jean, one of the renowned knights of the empire, had a pale, lifeless face, and only blinked her eyes while listening. The head maid could truly be considered Penrotta’s finest nagger. "...So basically, it means that without the workers at the Weatherwoods Mansion, it won't work, right?" "That's the most important…

<Episode 84> "It seems that Miss Daisy needs to become a little more difficult. Easy women lack charm, after all. Admittedly, I am a splendid Count, but you mustn’t fall for me recklessly." “You’re Rue.” "Rue? I’m not sure who you’re talking about. A lover? If you’re mistaking me for him, he must be an extraordinarily handsome man. What an honor." "Stop pretending..." "Anyway, the important thing is..." His long and elegant hand reached out in front of me and…

<Episode 83> I shook my head with a look, and then said it plainly. "There's no such thing." "You don't have it?" “There’s no letter from Morian Serenier - since Morian Serenier is a made-up person in the first place.” Honestly, I was half-sure that this man was either Rue or someone related to him. Huh. Count Serenier looked at me with suspicious eyes full of doubt. "A fictional character? You speak such disrespectful words. Not only are you treating my daughter…

<Episode 82> “Rue.” “...yes?” “Mr. Rue is playing tricks. Otherwise, there is no way the Serenier family would send someone to pick us up on the pretext of a Viscountess that doesn’t even exist.” "Does that mean Mr. Rue is Count Serenier?" Wasn’t that unlikely? Rue was a Calepa, not a Count. ‘If he’s the Calepa, it must be easy for him to control high-ranking aristocrats in the Northern Continent, right?’ It didn’t matter if the direction…

<Episode 81> The journey to the Kingdom of Astrosa was arduous. To reach this damned country, we had to pass through two cities and an additional kingdom. However, each time we had to stop at an airport, the pilot changed, and refuel by replenishing with magic stones, which made the time longer. The estimated time to arrive at Astrosa was approximately 45 hours. "The lunch for the second day has been served. Enjoy your meal." Fortunately, meals were provided…

<Episode 80> "Fidgety guy." He followed Urd, grumbling. As they entered the white celestial fortress, they passed through seven doors and headed towards the central altar. Following the long marble path, at the end, it revealed a collapsed wall and ceiling, and a young man comfortably sitting in front of the stone altar. It was none other than Lord Calepa. Bernard and Urd swallowed their dry saliva and stopped fifteen steps away, kneeling down. "Calepa, Calepa,…

<Episode 62> ‘What would Rue look like with those fancy jewels in his ears?’ I decided to stop imagining because I was blinded just by the image in my mind. The item Rue carefully chose out of the gems was a pair of earrings with a pure white pearl on top and a smaller-sized turquoise pearl hanging below in a design. When Rue pulled on the radiant pearl, a spark of white light burst forth. Shiing. ‘That scared me.’ Soon, in the direction he…

<Episode 61> “So many? You said there was no one like that earlier.” "There were just so many people that came to mind that I lied without realizing it. I'm sorry." That was a cute lie. Well, since Malcolm was down, she must’ve been nervous. I moved past the lie. Only a maid could understand another maid’s feelings. “So who comes to mind?” Lenya glanced at Rue, who sat by the window, and answered meekly. “Mainly treasure hunters… err, a few spies and…

<Episode 60> ‘There are five rooms in total. When checking the windows from outside, the room with the lights on was the fourth room from the back, so it’s the third room from the inside.’ The first room the assassin entered was one that was typically used as the bedroom by the homeowner. Creak. The door opened very quietly. Sure enough, this room had more furniture compared to the other rooms. Judging by the extravagant and unmistakable preference of the elderly, with its…

<Episode 59> In the middle of being guided to the bedrooms, I almost habitually entered Rue’s bedroom together with him. This was the aftermath of using the same bedroom at the noble council meeting. "Miss Daisy, would you like to sleep with me? Well, I did consider going over to your side at night. It would be more convenient for us to wake up on time if we share the same bedroom." I ran down the hall with the maid before being turned into a joke. Rue was a vicious…
