I hurriedly left Klaus’ library.
Fortunately, the numerous insects, birds, animals, and humans that had been chasing me a while ago were nowhere to be seen.
It seems that Klaus was right when he said that the servants would not sit idly by and watch wild and flying animals run amok in front of Klaus’ library.
‘I’m glad, really.’
I left in a hurry after saying I had a crush on you, but when I saw a swarm of bugs at the door, I almost ran back into the study.
I was heartbroken that another shameful death incident had passed safely and slowly recalled the events from before.
“Klaus has a crush on me?”
Of course, likeability can be interpreted in many ways.
Liking does not necessarily mean only erotic love between a man and a woman.
It can be interpreted in various ways, such as just wanting to have me as a friend, or being moderately interested in me.
But I didn’t let down my guard.
It was because I had accumulated experience through numerous failures!
When I first saw him and asked him if he was crazy about me, Klaus’s response was, ‘Are you weak?’
But there’s one thing that bothers me… … .
“My wish was coming true very well.”
Let me recall once again the courtship show of nature that caused me so much pain today.
I made a wish to become popular with everyone, and the tree burst out with pollen and wooed me.
It would be nice if only plants were like that. Didn’t not only animals but also normal people turn a blind eye and confess to me?
“Then it can never be done…!”
It is a powerful wish that makes flowering trees, birds, squirrels, butterflies, and bees rush at me without any sense.
‘If this wish is applied indiscriminately and even Rudyeat becomes fond of me!’
The deep love of the younger sister who wanted to save the man even if it meant turning back time, the older sister who takes the younger brother’s man away despite knowing her younger sister’s story, and the man who forgets his past and falls in love with the older sister – such a crazy love triangle!
“It’s a terrible drama, like something out of Love and Fate!”
Makjang dramas are fun to watch on the other side of a TV screen, and I have absolutely no desire to be the female lead in a makjang drama!
Moreover, as a Romance reader who really liked the story of the female lead falling in love with the male lead again even after turning back time, the story of Lariette returning but failing in love was a narrative that I could never forgive!
Of course, there was a very small problem with me being the cause of that narrative… … .
“It’s okay. Nothing is certain yet.”
I calmly took a deep breath.
“After all, the only answer is observation, right?”
After much thought, I decided that I should observe these two brothers.
More precisely, my intention was to observe Rudeat and find out whether he harbored feelings for me or not.
‘Also, it would be a good idea to check if Rudyard still has any memories of the love he had before returning.’
The reason Rudyard was so scared of what Klaus was thinking, he didn’t want to observe him.
My life would be in danger if the plot progressed like, ‘I need to find out what’s in this crazy woman’s head.’
Wouldn’t it be better to go in a safe direction?
“Rudeot, I believe your sincerity.”
I was careful not to let people around me hear and cheered Rudyatt on.
That’s how my Ludiat watchdog began.
First day of surveillance. 2nd day of Ennes calendar. Weather clear.
Location: The training ground where Rudeat and Lariat train.
Lariette swung her sword. Rudiott caught the blade of her lariat and lightly clicked her tongue.
“I’ll be honest with you. When the young lady first said she could use a sword, I thought she was lying.”
“I guess you couldn’t believe that the Count’s second daughter would be good at swordsmanship.”
“I’m sorry if it made you uncomfortable. I can’t help but feel that Lady, who doesn’t even have a swordsman teacher, is using the imperial swordsmanship better than me.”
Rudyard clicked his tongue lightly and raised both hands.
Lariette smiled slightly and put down her sword.
At the same time as the beads of sweat that flowed down, Lariette’s smile spread slightly bitterly.
‘I see!’
It was Rudiate who taught Lariette the imperial swordsmanship! Absolutely!
Lariette’s expression is like that because of the fact that only she knows about the past!
It seemed that Rudeat did not yet know this important fact.
And then I told Lariette that I actually ignored you.
Ha, Lariette. I don’t have anything to say because I like you, but I still feel like I’m a bit of a waste of you.
Third day of surveillance. 5th day of the Ennes calendar. Weather clear.
Location: The training ground where Rudyard and Lariat train… … Entrance.
“Young lady, is it okay if I ask what you are doing here?”
As I was carefully sneaking into the training ground, I almost took my breath away when I heard a voice coming from behind me.
Rudyard was looking at me with a very suspicious look on his face.
“Ah, um… Well, I heard that my younger brother is coming here…”
“Lariette, um, my younger brother is training inside right now. If you have any business, I’ll call you right away.”
“Oh, no. It’s okay. I’ll stop then.”
I ran away at full speed before Rudyatt could sing his real lariat.
In the first place, they went into hiding to spy on the two people’s condition, but the plan was a complete failure when they were exposed like this!
I’ll have to do a more perfect spying tomorrow!
Seventh day of surveillance. 9th day of the Ennes calendar. weather clouds. It’s going to rain.
Location: Training ground where Rudiot and Lariat train.
“Lariette. Let’s end today’s training here. They said it might rain.”
Rudiott, who had been training for a while, called out Lariette.
Lariette’s eyes were faint as she looked back at Rudyatt.
“Now you call me by my name.”
“Wasn’t Lariette the one who first asked me to call you by my name?”
“That’s right. I did.”
“If you feel uncomfortable, you can always return to the title Lady.”
“Oh, no. No.”
Loneliness passed across Lariette’s cheeks.
Ah, Rudeat. It’s just minus one point.
This sister feels a bit regretful about having you as her son-in-law.
I frowned as I looked at Rudeat, who seemed to have not remembered the past yet.
At that moment, Rudyard added another word in a vaguely vague tone.
“……well, it’s strange to me too. For some reason, calling lariette lariette feels familiar.”
“Oh my god! … Oops.”
Rudiott, you also had faint memories of Lariat from beyond your memories, right?
… … Ra was so absorbed in the emotion that he forgot that he was hiding and jumped up, clenching his fists.
I belatedly realized my mistake and hid my tightly clenched fist behind my back, but Rudeat’s suspicious gaze had already turned to me.
“Lady Sebes. What brought you to the training ground?”
“……sister?”
Lariette’s face, who followed me, was also full of puzzlement.
no! Don’t doubt me! I’m working hard right now to connect you two!
“Ah, well. Lately, I’ve become interested in nature, so I’ve been observing nature. Do what you’re doing. Yeah, yeah.”
I smiled sheepishly and quickly ran away.
Still, I’m glad. It seems like Rudiate and Lariette’s feelings are still connected!
Now your problem is solved!
The only thing left to worry about is how to catch and kill this white chick that doesn’t even come close to my eyes these days!
Klaus Ertikev has been living a very interesting life these past few days.
It was to see a woman named Elena Seves who claimed to be from another world.
I wasn’t sure if she had really died in another world or if she was just a crazy person, but even though her behavior was crazy, it didn’t seem like she was crazy.
She seemed wary of Klaus, but Klaus didn’t pay much attention to her wariness either.
I didn’t intend to look good anyway, I was simply interested.
Of course, I wasn’t just watching Elena because I was interested.
‘That’s strange.’
Klaus thought back to the courtship of the countless creatures chasing Elena.
After Klaus, who happened to see Elena as she was coming out of the personal library that day, rescued her, Klaus had been watching her carefully to prevent her from being put in a similar situation again.
It was because he thought that he was the only one who understood such a strange phenomenon and could protect Elena, at least for now.
‘If I get into trouble for no reason, I feel bad too.’
But strangely, after that day, Elena Sebes was never courted by animals or plants again.
Although he himself seemed to be so absorbed in other matters that he did not notice it at all.
‘There’s definitely something there.’
The vague hypothesis I had initially made about Elena was turning into a vague certainty.
If that hypothesis is correct, Klaus himself should have started to move.
“……Hmm.”
Just as Klaus was crying softly, there was a knock on my study door.
He shook off his thoughts and straightened his posture.
“come in.”
“older brother.”
Klaus looked at his younger brother, Rudyard, who came calling for him.
Rudeat’s gentle eyes were raised, indicating that something was troubling him.
Although they were born with the same blood, Klaus resembled his mother and Rudyard resembled his father, so their impressions were greatly different.
So Klaus closed his sharp eyes and smiled to balance it out.
“What’s going on, little brother?”
“……It’s hard to say, but I have some concerns.”
“Why don’t you just pick one thing that’s difficult to say or something you’re going to say?”
Despite Klaus’ happy voice, Rudyard just sighed.
I was already used to my brother’s speaking style.
Rudyard sighed and confessed his deep concerns in a trembling voice.
“I feel like I’m being stalked by Elena Seves.”
