Duke, Please Repent! chapter 285

51. Infiltration with the Duke (16)

“Edna, are you acquainted with Monam?”

“Are you mean? Are you referring to the person who just left?”

Yeah…, what…

To call a sloppy person ugly.

Even though I was a person who came to play chess, I did not wield violence once and went out quietly.

too much

Edna, the master of double lust, can’t even be called an ‘ugly’ abusive language, but how would children view a guardian who demeans other people’s appearance without hesitation?

“By the way, Shion, if you make comments that demean the appearance of someone you’ve seen for the first time Wouldn’t it be better to refrain from speaking in front of children?”

Yes?

She was not guilty. It was just that it was dark.

The word “monam” is unfamiliar, so it seems to have been replaced with a similar ugliness among the words I know.

“Did I say that I’m not ugly, I’m handsome?”

Ah! I’m sorry. I must have misunderstood. So… you mean someone with an angular heart?

Even after correcting the words properly, she was still too.

No, it’s an abbreviation for a man in a fur coat?

Why are you shortening it so much?

It’s long.

Ah .

Edna with an absurd look on her face

exhaled.

Was it such a shock to shorten the fur coat man to monam while even demon worshipers were abbreviated as demons?

What’s important now isn’t an abbreviation, is it?

Ah, ahhh. Did you?

So what’s your relationship with Monam?

Derek… I’d rather wash the dishes first.

I think Monami’s real name was Derek.

Edna explains about Monamy

As he was about to say it, he felt the children’s gaze on him and changed his words in a hurry.

Rather than washing the dishes urgently, it means talking in a place where there are no children.

”I need to go get an education right away too!

Ah! It’s late!

Monam and I were having a conversation in the middle of the playroom, and the children, who could not pass by, hurriedly headed to the front door.

The problem now isn’t just tardiness.

They are worried too.

I wanted to keep them from leaving, but even if the education they are receiving now is unfair, it is the only line of action for the children toward the future.

If you hold on to it, you will only have a backlash.

If a strange person comes up to you, don’t deal with it, and come back to the nursery right away!

Did you hear or not hear my cry? The children glanced at me and then just walked out.

I hope the monkey doesn’t touch the children any more.

Leaving my worries behind, I and Edna took the dishes from the dining room and headed to the kitchen.

After confirming that there were no children following, Edna performed another soundproofing magic.

Derek, like Austin, is a kid who lived at the same time as me at Elowyn Orphanage.

I thought that the devil had caught a slick guy and hired him, but that wasn’t the case.

It’s not even an orphanage group meeting. I don’t know what this is going to do.

“I heard that you were adopted, but I feel relieved that you seem to be living well.”

It doesn’t seem like you’re living that far when you come to see me like this. You didn’t know?

Yes. I was adopted when I just entered the tower and was busy adapting, so I didn’t hear the news properly. If you were the headmaster, you would know…

Either the adoptive parents did not like the child’s continued contact with the person at the orphanage, or the former director’s concern for the child to adjust to the new environment. roughly like that

According to Edna’s subsequent explanation, the mother. In other words, Derek is said to be one year younger than Edna and were once very close friends.

Then, when it was revealed that Edna had a talent for magic, they seemed to have separated from each other because they were going to learn magic.

Even so, the director, the fact that even the younger brother he was close with once was resenting himself.

Edna couldn’t hide her complexity.

The sound of the clattering of dishes is like her heart is scattered here and there.

sounded like

“Derek did that kid also become a demon worshiper? Is it because of me?”

Well? Thinking about the reaction I saw earlier, it seemed like they were helping without knowing…

I wish it were like that.

Even if I do feel resentful. Edna was worried about him.

By the way. Don’t you think the mother-in-law is living a very good life?”

Yes, I’m very happy.

Aren’t you jealous? You’ve got some reputation for making noble clothes.

And, would you make good money?”

“Is that something that would make you jealous?”

She blessed Derek’s success not only verbally, but sincerely.

Even though he hates him for harming the boy Shion, and it’s sad that it’s because of him.

It was fortunate that he was eating well and living well.

“Mr. Edna spares the materials necessary for magic experiments and uses the money she saved for the children. But, Monam was lucky to be adopted into a well-to-do family, so she wears good clothes all by herself.

While I was growing up, I didn’t make a single piece of clothing for the children at the nursery school. Isn’t it silly?

Even if I had met my adoptive parents well, I would not have been able to rise to that position if I didn’t have the skills. The reason that the child did well is because she worked hard. It cannot be defined in terms of luck. And what I do for my children is, It’s because I want to. I can’t force that responsibility just because I’m from an orphanage.

Perhaps my question was offended, Edna’s voice sharpened.

The more you scratch the inside, the more profanity will come out.

momentum I’ll just have to end it here.

“Shion-san, I didn’t see it like that, but how can someone .”

That’s right. People I’ve been close to say that they live happily ever after. Even though they can’t be happy together, the one who hates them is the weakest.”

..Yes?

As they chattered and suddenly changed their words, Edna looked at me with one eye as if it was ridiculous.

The hands that were washing the dishes stopped for a moment. Instead of the rustling of the moon, I could only hear the sound of running water.

Edna is right, and I think so too. Well, being human, you can be jealous. But isn’t it that celebration and joy take precedence over that between people?

I took the plate in her hand and wiped it clean with a dry cloth.

“Are you testing me now?”

No? I thought you would answer like that, but what about the test?

Then why…

I did, but I think Edna doesn’t know.

“What does that mean?”

Edna took another dish out of the dishwasher and rinsed the detergent in question.

Why do good people show so much generosity to others and be so harsh on themselves?

Monam’s resentment against Edna is because he has a bad heart, and it’s not Edna’s fault. It’s the same as what the manager said yesterday.

Edna didn’t do anything wrong, so you don’t have to suffer or blame yourself.

You don’t have to.

She didn’t open her mouth any more until the dishes were finished.

It looked like she was thinking deeply about something, so I didn’t even talk to her.

thank you.

She handed me the last bowl, along with a thank you note.

Seeing her smile with a lighter face made me feel lighter as well.

Spit, by the way, the ruby brooch cost… I will pay it back in narcissism.

Ah, that’s fine. It’s as good as buying it for 150,000 Ars anyway.

Yeah? It was 4 million ass before…

“To be precise, I borrowed 150,000 ass and got it as collateral, but it’s okay.

There were three witnesses, so I was proud.

“What if I come back later to ask for it?”

I don’t even know who I am, how can he find me?

Edna’s gaze on me became subtle.

A moment ago, he had looked at me with warm eyes, but suddenly he turned cold.

You reduced the alimony of 35 million ass to 3 million, and you are buying a 40-year-old brooch for 150,000 ass…. Mr. Sion is really , that’s great.

Edna’s words are somewhat sarcastic.

sounded like

If anyone hears it, they’ll think I’m a very bad guy.

Bad guy.

Serpence, who always came to me tonight, looked at me and murmured.

Why are you arguing?

That’s what I want to ask. You know what kind of guy he is, and you’re arguing all the time?

The person he refers to must mean Darren.

I later found out that I had paid the money back, and I asked why the manager did such a thing, but I’m sure it wasn’t me who was arguing.

Above all else, the manager is not threatening.

You introduced yourself in the first place? I’m not a savage person…

gibberish.

admit it As I said, bullshit is right.

You wouldn’t know how frantic I was watching you.

Uh, um… I’m sorry.

“I knew it would be difficult for me to act right away, but in front of my eyes did I have to say such a dangerous thing?”

Rather than doing it in a place you can’t see… , no, no 匸h I was wrong. Hey! Shion, you bastard!

I pretended to punch my head in my fists, and Serpens said, ‘Isn’t that your real name?’

looked at me with her eyes.

I decided to pretend I didn’t know that look.

Whoa… So, what did you talk about with Mr. Benevolen earlier?

Serpens sighed and asked me a question. I must have been unable to hear Edna’s conversation with me because of the soundproofing magic.

That mother-in-law is from this orphanage. My name is Derek, did you hear that?”

I handed the baby to Serpens who nodded and sat down on the bed.

He stared at me, but as I grabbed the opposite shoulder with one hand and turned my arm around, he quickly removed the impure gaze.

,It’s not unusual.’

When he handed a bottle of milk powder, Serpence accepted it without hesitation.

Like the guy who ate jjambab sesame seeds at the nursery school, Serpens stably held the baby and fed the bottle.

Is that all? It seems like we’ve been talking for quite some time…

When it comes to important things, I said vaguely

if.

Let’s see if I might have missed it.] One, Serpens secretly floated his luck.

When I was young, I was quite close with my mother-in-law, but did Edna become estranged from learning magic?

Hmm, that’s right.

Didn’t Ador find out anything?

When I finished my question, Serpens opened his axe again and looked at me.

No, why again?

Let the director tell you about

sent to.

Eh?!

“I was thinking of secretly changing the content but the one who came in the morning will be enchanted by the story, so I left it as it is.”

Thinking that he had assisted my danger, he closed his sharp eyes and avoided my gaze with a guilty expression.

Are you sorry for that? You did well. If you hadn’t talked about me anyway, you would have been more suspicious.

Know.

but. No, I guess I’ll just leave it alone.

“Anyway, what is it?”

“I wrote everything from the fact that you solved the problem this morning, and that it was Mr. Benevolen who introduced you.”

It’s like you’re such a scoundrel.

Other than that: Sir Winston is said to have arrived in the Ferrol Territory with his former chieftain.

In the case of Ferrol, it is the territory we got off the train. At the same time, it was also a manor with the main altar at the top of Rossio.

I heard that the director sent a letter earlier, so Jeon Seo-gu must have flown first. At that time, he must have read the letter that Euges slipped in.

“Did nothing happen?”

It is said that there were a few people near the former director’s house, who seemed to be monitoring the surroundings.

Then we’ll find out soon. No, you’ve already been caught?

“It would be better to assume that and move on.”

It’s been less than a week since I got a fake job at an orphanage.

The end has already begun to appear.
