The Precious Sister of The Villainous Grand Duke - Chapter 69

I came back to Dahlia, leaving Dietrich squirting as if he had something to say to me.

‘If someone sees me, they think I’m wrong.’

He seemed desperate as if he had been hurt by my attitude. I don’t know why it looks like Aji, a river in the rain, even though it’s such a careless face.

‘Aura did look a little sad.’

Still, the dark gray aura was difficult to read, but it seemed to have a very little blue energy.

“Anissa !!!”

As we enter the front door, the triplets who were standing in the hall terribly rush to come.

“Are you okay?”

I nodded at Meslow’s question. Looking at his swollen eyes, he seemed to have cried all night.

“Sure. It’s okay and not.”

Derek’s bodyguard came. Anit said that he was imprisoned in a dungeon.

“Damon?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

You still gave Dahlia news.

I shrugged at the thought that the aura I’ve manipulated is going to last for quite some time.

“Meslow, do you remember what Veronica said before?”

“What do she say?”

“What would it be like to leave Lagrange?”

I looked down at the child as I stepped into the bedroom with the three twins running behind me.

“I like it.”

Brown hairs with similar grains gather together and shake up and down at the same time.

“Anything is good if you can be with love.”

At Riesling’s words, I laughed at Bash and stroked the child’s posh hair.

“The capital is much warmer than here. There are ten times more merchants, and markets open more often.”

“Do they have a gambling room?”

Rosé, who was punished for fun by following me in and out of the gambling room, shines in her eyes. I nodded my head trying to make a stern expression.

“Of course there is.”

Crawling underneath a bed that was very large for my size, I pulled a treasure chest containing the’treasures’ I had collected in Lagrange.

“Wow. Oh, you’re so rich Nissa!”

“Not that much,”

I said, whipping my nose and starting to move the bundle of bills into my pocket.

‘It’s not big money, but the settlement cost will be somehow.’

It was a money made by collecting all the money from the lucky lottery and money from the gambling house.

If a child like me frequently goes to the gambling house and picks up money, it seems suspicious or disgusting, so I couldn’t win big money, but it’s pretty reassuring to save even a small amount of money.

“Because Veronica also said she had a certain amount of money she had saved, she would be able to buy a small house.”

I wouldn’t be able to get out of Lagrange right away, but at least I thought I had to be prepared.

I gave the triplets the location of their main money, then pushed the box back.

“I’m telling you to use yours if something happens.”

“What do you mean? Oh, what happens to Nissa?”

Derek is a trash man, but it was unlikely that he would have beaten me in front of Dietrich for no reason.

‘He said that I was a sacrifice.’

I don’t know for sure what that means, but it’s as certain as it was involved in the successor game.

“Anyway, because there may be situations that I cannot protect.”

“I don’t like those words,”

Riesling holds out to me, sticking out his mouth. I patted the child on his back as if it was a bit of a vigor.

I set out to find Liatris on that road. She left the Palace of Liatris after Neil’s death and was staying in a lonely little villa.

“Hmm.”

I cleared my voice in front of her villa, like the old Dahlia, where no one except one maid can come and go.

“Liatris.”

Liatris, sitting in a rocking chair in the garden, raises her head to my call. Her empty eyes were still empty, but she looked pretty good after a while.

“It’s been a long time.”

“Excuse me because I don’t have time, but I want to ask you something.”

“Ask me.”

“Do you really know anything about the successor’s last gateway?”

I looked at her with a lonely face like a tree with only her root left, and painted her body. I can’t hear the answer.

Silence again.

Instead of looking at her emaciated face, I focused on sharpening the tip of the sword that now fits in my hand.

“If you don’t know, it’s okay. Thank you for teaching me swordsmanship. I’m here to say hello.”

After Baal followed Dietrich on the road, it was Liatris who taught me the sword instead. Because her mother, Euler, was a renowned samurai.

“Are you thinking of leaving Lagrange?”

“Yeah.”

“Then, I really don’t have a single thing left.”

This is absurd, but Lia Tris, who has never made any noise since Neil’s death except for intermittent cries.

I held my breath, not wanting to disturb her remarks.

“I thought that flowers bloom again when they fall, and grow again when branches are broken.”

“………. .”

“It seems that all of the things I gave to this northern part were roots in the end. I cut my roots and called the ship of the devil myself.”

Was it that she devoted her life to Lagrange without knowing that zhe was being sacrificed?

I slowly blinked my eyes, paying attention to her dry lips.

Sec.

Liatris came down from her chair and put her hand on the tip of her sword I was going to. The blood, dripping on the tip of her finger, drips to the floor.

“Ah Nissa, the devil doesn’t work for humans without a price. The successor who wants to become a grand duke must pay a fair price.”

Holding my own hand tightly, I looks at her bleeding with her tongue and her empty eyes.

“Derek Lagrange told me it was a sacrifice.”

“Yes. Then you better leave.”

Even if she did not give advice, she had already packed all of her parts.

The reason I hesitate wasn’t simply the question of whether I was going to be in danger. As I put my sword in, I faced her faceless face for the last time.

“What about the unpaid successor?”

I said with a faint smile on her lips.

“Are you still worried about your brother? he turns away from you so terribly.”

I couldn’t answer easily because it seemed to blame my stupidity. Liatris, who glanced at me who couldn’t open her mouth, talks again.

“If it’s about him, he’ll be able to open the gate.”

But he won’t come back. I read the lines of the words she swallowed.

“Anissa-.”

“Shh. Don’t make a sound.”

After waiting for a dark night when the moon doesn’t rise, I picked up the triplets and hid myself in a forest of withered roses.

Yuric and Veronica appeared as supporting actors in’The Men’s War of the Roses’, so there was no need to worry about their death, but the circumstances of the triplets were a little different.

They only appeared in their names in the original, and, according to the original, they were destined to be eliminated by Dietrich, who became Grand Duke.

‘As soon as he returned, I was thinking of convincing him that he no longer needed to get rid of the children.’

Since Dietrich was no longer a boy I know of, who was awkward to deal with people, he was a successor who was ready to become a grand duke.

“Come up, follow me carefully.”

I climbed the tree with a sigh that was inaudible to the children.

The old tree hidden with the triplets was the largest and oldest tree in the Withered Rose Forest.

“You can wait for the signal here.”

“Where are you going?”

“To Lorraine.”

“Aunt Geumeunbang?”

“Yeah.”

“Then are we selling as slaves now?”

I laughed in the fear of Riesling’s voice.

“No, we are hiding in Lorraine’s house.”

Dietrich has not yet climbed the air, so the triplets were unable to escape Lagrange due to the limitations of the picture.

The sound of the bush swaying in the night breeze resonates. I forgot the situation and closed my eyes for a while, feeling cool as if I was washing my ears clean.

“Ah, Anissa.”

Rosé, sitting on my lap, suffocates and calls me. I opened my eyes and looked down after the child.

“Hype!”

Instantly I was convinced that Dietrich and my eyes met, but he quickly turned and stared at the other direction of the forest.

On the side where he turned his head, there is only a field with sparse silver grass.

‘What are you looking at?’

I was dazzled, and I caught my tongue at Dietrich’s bright appearance, which made me feel that the description in the book was lacking.

‘Isn’t it that Charlotte saved him by looking at her face?’

On a dark night without the moon rising, the only light that illuminates him is the only street lamp in the garden, but the sun is bright.

I wondered why he went out for a garden walk this night, but the withered rose bush was Dietrich’s favorite place in LaGrange and he couldn’t sleep at night.

Fearing the presence of the children would be noticed, I lifted them up with my eyes wide open.

Basrock.

I was hoping to send it all up, but a child fell to the floor with a sound that one of the children had stepped on the wrong foot or that a weak branch was broken.

‘I must have caught it this time.’

I felt thrilled with my heart rattled down. Tired of contemplation, I quickly looked at Dietrich’s reaction, but he was still not looking at our side.

‘Did he fall into deep thoughts?’

I wonder how I survived the battle because I didn’t have that much attention.
