The Villain Family’s New Daughter-In-Law - Chapter 136

Luciel looked at him with big eyes, as if begging him to pretend he didn’t know.

Who wants to eat now?

Seeing Luciel trying to run away with such a restless face, his grumpiness swelled up.

In addition, the shy atmosphere in which Luciel always created the pink jewel was inexplicably soft.

A sweet, berry-like fruity scent came from Luciel, who was close by.

The wrist he held was as soft and fluffy as that of a small animal. He thought to let it go, but he had an unknown desire.

It was all for Luciel that he trained so hard…….

When the last magic class was over, he had something to say, but Luciel was the first to speak.

“Kizef, I know you are more focused on your swordsmanship training. You don’t even need to take magic classes. I heard that the new master is very strict. My heart hurts when Kizef breaks his promise with your Master to come over. We’ve got a lot of time to spend together, so for now it’s better to focus on what we each have to do.”

After that, just like Luciel said, he didn’t go to see her often on purpose, he held it in and waited patiently.

Does this kid know about that?

From some point on, his days begin and ends with someone living in his thoughts.

Soon, Luciel’s silver eyebrows drooped.

“……Kizef, can you hear me? It hurts, so let go please.”

“So-sorry…….”

Kizef quickly released Luciel’s wrist as if surprised.

“Did you think of something else?”

“Nothing.”

Kizef said with a faint smile.

“But, as Luciel said, I tried to focus on my swordsmanship training. I was patient not to go to you. I turned away from wanting to go to the separate residence and stayed in the Knights quarters.”

Kizef continued to speak without knowing it.

‘He, now……he sounds like he’s asking for praise. What is this?’

After speaking, Kizef stood still, his face blushing in embarrassment. Then Luciel smiled brightly and said,

“That’s great. You did as I said, it’s deserving of praise. Good job.”

Luciel’s dazzling and beautiful smile was etched in his eyes, but that wasn’t enough.

I wish she could pay a little more attention.

It was not enough.

“That’s……everything?”

“Hmm……come over here.”

Luciel stood up and stroked Kizef’s hair with a gentle touch.

“Good job, Kizef.”

He felt like he became a puppy from nowhere, but he was happy. It was fortunate that he was able to hide his smile by bowing his head down.

He doesn’t like the touch from anyone other than his family, but strangely enough, he didn’t hate Luciel’s touch.

‘No, rather, it felt good.’

After the small and cozy hand stopped stroking his head, Luciel opened her lips.

“And the answer for what kind of feeling I made this spinel with, to be honest……I really don’t know.”

“……At least you can give an explanation.”

Kizef asked, cautiously raising his head.

‘Do you feel like your heart is pounding and your face heats up? I wonder if you are like me?’

“Huh? ……Luciel?”

As Kizef glanced at Luciel, that very same jewel was glisteningly and brilliantly formed in the air.

A Pink spinel.

Every time she made that jewel, Luciel either widened her eyes or flinched like a startled rabbit and just now she did both.

“……You made one.”

Kizef caught the spinel before it fell. A spinel that was bigger and more colorful than the last time.

“Did your heartbeat when you made this?”

Luciel, unable to deny it, nodded her head.

“……That’s one answer.”

“Yes. But, no matter what kind of jewel I make, my heart beats fast!”

Luciel quickly added that and couldn’t hear what Kizef was saying. With a satisfied expression on his face, he gently hugged her small body.

Meanwhile, Luciel was blushing and murmured a few words.

“It’s just warm and it feels good. I wish and hope that Kizef does better than anyone else…”

“That’s the same with me……Luciel, I want you to be happy.”

‘Maybe, I can expect a little bit? Does she feel the same as me?’

By the time Kizef was thinking about it, something flashed in Luciel’s head.

Ba-dum.

This excitement that Kizef told me. This unfamiliar but tickling feeling I want to hide. But I can’t hide my desire for the other person to do well.

Maybe that’s a ‘blessing’.

Luciel took out the spinel and murmured her innermost thoughts as she smoothed it.

‘……I also want Kizef to be happy.’

At that moment, a pink light emitted from the spinel spread and enveloped Kizef’s body like the wind.

“……That’s it! I think I know a little bit about the power of spinel. It is a blessing.”

Luciel exclaimed with admiration. She was also happy that her doubts about the jewel were resolved after meeting Kizef.

In addition, she thought that the bonds I had with him had grown stronger.

But as soon as she finished that thought, at that moment, there was a rattling noise from her stomach. Luciel’s face turned red.

“……Shall we go eat first?” (Kizef)

“Yes. I will eat two whole plates.” (Luciel)

“You’re a glutton.”

The two talked about it as they walked down the meadow.

“Just now, with the power of Spinel, I wished Kizef a blessing to be happy.”

“The warm wind I felt earlier, was a blessing you gave me?”

“Yes. Because I want you to be happy.”

I don’t think Kizef I knew in the past has been very happy.

Luciel really wanted Kizef to be happy now. She grabbed Kizef’s hand and then put the spinel into his palm.

“I will give this warmth and blessing to you. Do not reject it!”

“Yes.”

Kizef’s eyes folded softly.

Several nobles unexpectedly came to the mansion of Marquis Cavill, which had been cut off from the aristocratic and social circles for a while.

They were all middle-aged ladies and gentlemen, all had hard faces.

“Hello, Marquis Cavill. I’m sorry for coming so suddenly, but I can’t hold back any longer. We’re from the Parent’s Committee of the Polyche Academy.”

“I am the principal of the Polyche Academy. Greetings Lord.”

When the parents’ committee and even the principal came to visit, the Marquis asked in confusion.

“What in heaven’s brought you all here like this?”

“Yes, we have something to tell you about your son, for now, why don’t we go inside to talk.”

“Please come inside.”

The Marquis brought the people inside with a clouded look on his face as if uninvited guests had rushed in.

Penelope saw them as she went down the stairs, and her eyes widened, wondering what was going on.

“If it’s Polyche Academy, isn’t it Brother Maximus school? What else did he do?”

A long conversation continued in the Marquis’ study and Penelope leaned close to the door with her perked up.

“Hold on, wait a minute. Our Maximus assaulted and pushed another child?”

“Yes, the student is currently undergoing treatment with a broken leg and missing a tooth.”

“I’m……I’m sorry.”

“Polyche Academy is an educational institution for the highest-ranking children of the Empire. Your son’s violent behavior that harms the emotions of our children is unacceptable. The disposition for expulsion will be decided by a majority vote, so I think you should let your son rest at home until then.”

“……Where is Maximus?”

“He’s in the carriage.”

“All right, I’ll meet him right away. Then, please go back now.”

When the Marquis spoke in an uncomfortable tone, the people turned around whispering about. Then, the Marquis, who almost dragged his son out of the carriage, furiously said.

“Do you dare taint the name of your family? Do you not know how much the tuition fee of Polyche Academy costs?!”

In fact, Maximus, who did not get out of the carriage for fear of his father’s anger, jumped to his knees.

“Fa……F-Father! About that, It’s not something that bad.”

It was not once or twice that he had been tormenting and assaulting children. The reason Maximus’s deeds came to the surface this far was because of the recent decline in the reputation of the Cavill family.

“They used to keep their mouths shut, but now they don’t sit still, they care only to tattle on me……Oh, but it’s not all my fault that the family reputation came to be what it is.”

Maximus looked up at his father and brazenly said so. The Marquis, furrowing his eyebrows fiercely, asked.

“This punk! You still won’t admit your mistakes? Are you saying it’s all my fault?!”

As Maximus avoided his gaze, the Marquis’s whole body trembled with rage. He ordered a nearby servant

“What are you doing! Lock Maximus in the room right now, and don’t give him a sip of water!”

“Ho-honey…Still, he’s our son.”

The Marquise tried to stop him but to no avail.

‘I’m sorry, but it will be difficult for us to work together, Marquis. Let’s invest together in the next business opportunity.’

‘……They say they can’t trust us and they’re taking all the money out.’

Everything had been going wrong since he was humiliated by the Duke of Bellstein.

The funds he had raised with effort with firmly established business partners were also running out as they turned their backs, withdrawing support one after another.

At this rate he might even have to quit the business he was running, let alone the business he was preparing for.

“Shit.”

He had a pile of hair that had fallen from work stress, adding a short-sighted son to the troubles.

“If only the Crystal Fairy was here, it would be solved in just one shot….”

He sighed heavily and tried to light the pipe, but Penelope showed him a piece of paper and said.

“Father. That idiot…… No, my brother was originally like that. Now that it has come to this, you can save on expensive tuition fees. Rather, shouldn’t our family find a way to live?”

“……My dear, this father is not in a very good mood right now.”

“Please take a look at this.”

“……What is it?”

“It’s the literary salon held in the Imperial Palace. I want to go here.”

Penelope said with her eyes shining.

“Anyway, we cannot enter the Imperial Palace.”

“Officially we can’t, but wouldn’t it be better to find another way?”

As anyone can see, my daughter looks just like me as she rolls that little head with all kinds of plans.

The Marquis smiled softly at Penelope.

“Why do you want to go to the literature salon?”

“Actually, I have heard a rumor.”

“Rumor?”

“It is said that Princess Claudia and Bellstein Princess have become friends. So, in other words, the Duke’s princess will go to this literary salon.”
