The Precious Sister of The Villainous Grand Duke - Chapter 61
I couldn’t easily answer her suggestion. Even though it was my long-standing plan to quietly leave LaGrange when Dietrich is safely played.
“Are you going to stay in Lagrange?”
Veronica frowns as if she can’t believe it. I hesitated her words as I met her eyes, resembling Dietrich, but far more vibrant.
“Lagrange has changed a lot. You know my sister.”
“Yes, we have changed, but it was possible because Derek emptied Lagrange,”
I bite my lips at Veronica’s words.
“But, one day, Gaju is supposed to change. When Dietrich becomes Duke-.”
“Ah Nissa, Dietrich must have changed. He must have been completely stained with the devil.”
“……. .”
“It’s because you didn’t see Dietrich during the war. If you think he’ll take care of you like he was a kid, it’s a mistake.”
Veronica had been called to the battlefield several times because of her unique hallucinogenic ability, and she shook her head as if she was heading out of her head.
“that’s not his fault. The power of the Shadow Devil is the power that loses his mind the more it is misused.”
“…….okay.”
I answered without strength, but in fact, none of the plans I had made after realizing that I had become’Anissa’ were good.
I survived under the protection of Dietrich, and I have not yet discovered my abilities.
‘If Dietrich really has changed, it’s okay to disappear like this.’
Without Eredia’s intellect, I was just that ordinary girl, and I agreed with the saying that mediocrity is not worth it in LaGrand State.
‘Even if I was gone, Dietrich wouldn’t care.’
Nevertheless, I kept getting caught in his heart.
Dietrich, who went to the battlefield, made a great stride while listening to the devil. He was too young and inexperienced to take the commander, but he was put into a more dangerous battle than a mercenary and wiped out all the southern soldiers.
Derek wanted Dietrich to die, so he only pushed him out of the unlikely battle, but he came back with a victory every time he was blood alone.
‘Wouldn’t it be difficult?’
“I have a nightmare.”
“uh?”
“Dream of Dietrich knowing nothing about me.”
The dream of returning from war and just passing by me was the nightmare I feared most.
I was intent on abandoning him anyway, but I feared that he would be abandoned, cowardly, it was too scary.
“Sister, is it weird that I miss Dietrich?”
“No, he’s your only family, of course. It’s just an unfortunate contract for you,”
I laughed at Veronica’s words, rubbing my head on her waist.
“My sister is also my family now,”
Veronica smiled silently and stroked my hair.
“Princess, are you going out?”
Marilyn greets me when she leaves my study with me.
For Dietrich’s achievement, the wider the territory of Lagrange, the greater the evaluation of him within the castle, and naturally the situation of Dahlia began to improve.
As his only’sister’, I had four attendants on my own, and Marilyn, who was like the head of the Dahlia Palace, naturally became a maid.
“Huh.”
“I’ll get my clothes ready,”
she cracked her chin, and her maids hurriedly moved and opened the door of her dressing room.
As she sits on the velvet sofa in the middle, she brings some clothes to wear and shows them. The maids’ eyes sparkled strangely with excitement.
“Try on this first!”
“No! From this one!”
“Princess suits you like this!”
“We don’t have anything that doesn’t suit you, Vanessa!”
“Well, that’s but-.”
The conversations that they are sharing with each other energetically come into my ears. If I left it like this, even if I tried wearing dozens of suits, I was still going to bring it.
“Just give it something comfortable today.”
“Oh, how is this one piece? This time, Marilyn put an order to the salon and made it.”
Tally, a cute freckles studded in the back of her nose, shakes a wide sky blue dress in a fuss. The white neck collar that reminds me of a sailor suit was a cute design.
“Yeah, I’ll wear that.”
Tally, who changed her clothes so scary that my words were over, rolled her feet and tapped her hands before I even looked in the mirror.
“It’s too-too-pretty! Our princess will be the cutest and prettiest in Lagrange.”
“Yes……”
Tally’s aura, who wore a large red ribbon over her half-tied head, was shaking violently.
There was one thing in common with the lively maids Marilyn chose and hired outside of LaGrange.
“Because the peacock is a maid for that taste.”
Everyone was eager to decorate me.
It was very burdensome at first, but now I am a little used to this handling.
‘I don’t hate the feeling of being pretty.’
The maids sent me out of the dressing room after wearing knee-high lace socks and black Mary Jane.
‘Today, though, it ended quickly.’
I looked into a large full-length mirror set by the door.
‘Even if it’s like me, I would have tried to decorate it with a younger sister like this.’
The girl with her fine eyelashes raised like a doll, blinks big eyes and looks at me.
Even though I was only twelve years old, the features that had already been completed were shining brightly.
“What kind of child’s nose is so sharp.”
Still, it was the’voice’ role of the book, so the author worked hard on it. In’The Men’s War of the Roses’, I likened Nissa to a delicate spring rose, but it’s really like this. it suits you.
‘Oh, it’s so self-contained,’
I shrugged my nose in front of the mirror.
‘Hmm. Well, how about a little. Pretty is true.’
If it weren’t for Dietrich-related worries, I would be able to wander around just by having such a brilliant appearance.
“He didn’t reply to the letter once.”
I guess who’s not the villain. I couldn’t tell him the heartbreak for her younger sister, who was left alone.
I slowly walked to the front door and kicked the floor once for nothing.
The wind blowing through the open window is chilly. Time passed as much as the fallen leaves piled up in the garden.
‘3 years…… .’
The boring war lasted for three years, and I was already twelve years old.
I couldn’t remember exactly when, but since Dietrich was 17 years old, the day he would return would not have been too soon.
I stood tall, forgetting Veronica waiting for me.
“Ah……”
When I press my two eyes with my palm, the patter’s tears fall.
Because I had a lot of thoughts about staying alone in Dahlia.
One day, he was a villain anyway and I was thinking of escaping from LaGrange, so now I thought it didn’t matter if he hated me or not.
Then another day suddenly thought of his cool eyes that became cold to me, and my heart thumped down.
“bad guy.”
Maybe you haven’t read my hello letter asking if it’s hurt or not.
I thought I could endure things like loneliness now, but Dietrich’s vacancy was too big for me.
‘It seems worse than then.’
On the day the report card came out, my parents took only my sister and brother to eat out. I didn’t have’qualification’, but they are.
When I was eating half, I was choked by loneliness.
I didn’t want to eat delicious food. I also wanted to be with him.
It was then. Sometimes I felt lonely and I felt like I was going out of my mind.
Some philosophers made fun of me saying that humans are originally lonely, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t get lonely just because everyone else is lonely.
I opened my eyes and stared at the ceiling. Tears go into the road.
‘It’s not a time when I’m just wasting my time like this,’
I hurried back to find Joseph’s lab. Since no one visited, the dusty building was reminiscent of an old library.
“I read all the books on this bookshelf.”
I used the duster like a cane and picked out the books I had read. The three years were quite long, so I was able to read all the books and materials that Joseph had left behind.
When he stayed in Lagrange, books were piled up in the bookshelves surrounding the slopes of the room, but now there is only a three-quarter schedule.
‘Of course it took quite a while to read all this.’
There were a lot of data that I left behind as if I wasn’t conscious. In particular, the sources on Eredia helped me quite a bit.
I approached the window and confirmed Joseph’s Shin Seong-soo, which I secretly raised.
“Ai, be pretty.”
Shin Seong-soo’s light green leaves sparkle in the sun. The barely blooming white flowers are as beautiful as pear flowers. I moved the aura of the divine water, touching the soft petals one by one.
‘I knew that animals and plants also have auras, but I didn’t know that they could move around two times.
At first I thought the book was wrong because no matter how much I wrote and tried, I didn’t even move, but it was a problem of my ability.
“When the holy water grows up, it was a cleansing neck, right?”
I smiled happily as I spoke to the plant, knowing that the answer would not return.
‘What can I do with Jeonghwa Mok?’
If you look at Joseph’s writing and research, there must be some use.
As I look around my attention while worrying, I hear something thumping from the floor. I was amazed and squeezed myself to the floor.
‘Is there a basement in the lab?’
