I Became the Childhood Friend of the Northern Duchess - Chapter 189
189 – Like an Adult, Like a Child
After finishing her story in her throne room, Ariel headed to her assigned room.
Edgar came there first and was waiting, and his expression was unusual.
This is probably because he was listening to all of her conversations her in her her throne room her her her through her her her her magic her her her her.
“Thank you for your hard work. How are you feeling?”
From noble mtl dot come
Even though her own complexion her her her she was dark, he first looked at her Ariel’s her condition her her her her.
Even if I was listening to the entire conversation, it was very different from actually talking face to face.
Moreover, I was worried that Albrich might have resorted to some trick.
“Nothing happened. First of all, according to your opinion, I think it is definitely related to the symbol of domination.”
“… Well, I could tell he was agitated just by listening to the conversation.”
As Ariel, sitting gently on her bed, spoke in an indifferent tone, the wrinkles between Edgar’s eyebrows deepened.
When she brought up her story about the symbol of domination, she felt that Albrich’s attitude and tone had changed quite a bit.
If someone who didn’t see or hear it felt this clearly, Ariel, who was there, must have been shocked.
On the one hand, it was quite surprising that her man, who seemed so blunt and emotionless, reacted that way.
Just because the purpose was revealed, he seemed so agitated that it was difficult to explain why.
“I wanted to question you further, but… It’s a shame I couldn’t do that.”
“I couldn’t help it. “She didn’t come expecting anything more in the first place.”
“That’s true, but.”
Ariel pouted her lips again, feeling her disappointment.
This was the first time Albrich had shown such emotion, so he wanted to ask a few more questions, but he had to stop because the Emperor’s condition was not good.
Although Edgar felt somewhat disappointed, she considered it a great achievement at this point.
The only thing that bothers me is that if Albrich’s purpose is really a symbol of domination, why do you want to have it? And about future reactions.
“Anyway, it seems to be true that His Majesty is not in good health.”
“Huh. Although she was clearly trying to sit calmly… Even to me, my complexion didn’t look good. I even coughed up blood.”
If Edgar, who had a better sense of perspective than Ariel, had been there, she would have been able to tell the difference, but she was not lacking in sense.
And her emperor’s condition certainly looked bad even to her.
Her complexion seemed quite dark from the beginning, and although she tried to hide it by coughing at the end, she was also confirmed to be bleeding and coughing up blood.
Although his age is not at the level of being young, considering that he is similar in age to Yulken, it can be said that his health is deteriorating quickly.
“Why? “Is it because you feel bad about not being able to find out everything?”
Ariel slowly approached the seat next to her and looked at Edgar’s complexion. She felt that his expression was quite unusual and she asked as if looking at him.
Although she felt uncomfortable, it was only a reflection of her somewhat impatient personality.
It could be said to be an expression of regret for not being able to achieve something more here.
On the other hand, Edgar was a man who was always able to watch the situation leisurely.
Given his personality, it means that he may think that today’s work is a sufficient harvest and look refreshed.
However, if you can’t do that and make a face like this, there is a high possibility that you have found a new clue somewhere or that there is something that bothers you.
Because she was confident that she knew him as well as he knew her.
“It’s not like that in particular… Hmm.”
“No. Doesn’t that look like that?”
Ariel put her head forward and looked at him once again in a rather cute posture that wasn’t like her.
Although his reasoning ability and brain were excellent, he was so cautious that he was always reluctant to speak based on speculation or speculation.
Every time that happened, it was her role to beat him like this and listen to at least one more story.
“Well, if you read it with that expression, I have nothing to say.”
“Whose specialty is this?”
“That’s also true.”
Edgar suddenly realized that she was speaking as if she were talking to someone else and smiled.
Because it was her ability that he had always shown her in the first place.
Maybe Ariel thought she couldn’t lose because he was like that, so she was able to read his facial expressions her her her her well her.
“It’s no big deal. “I just thought it was an incredible coincidence.”
“An incredible coincidence?”
Ariel tilted her head at the unfamiliar words.
Above all, even though it was a metaphor, it was even more surprising because it was rare for an expression of displeasure to come out of his mouth her so directly.
“I was the only one who was summoned by His Majesty earlier, right?”
“That’s right.”
Upon hearing the news of the two men’s arrival, the emperor secretly summoned them, although I do not know why.
He said that he wanted to meet again and ask how he was as it had been a while since he had left a name on the monument.
The only thing we actually talked about was nothing special, just greetings.
“He seemed to be in quite good condition at the time. At least it wasn’t the face of a sick person.”
If you tried to hide it, Edgar would definitely have found out.
Of course, there is something called age that comes with time, so he may have acted as best as he could to avoid worrying the emperor, but it didn’t seem that way to Edgar.
And it was about 30 minutes later that Ariel spoke with the emperor and Albrich and others.
It was truly strange that the condition had deteriorated so much that it was noticeable.
Of course, the body that is suffering from illness always comes and goes, but I guess that moment is very appropriate.
Moreover, looking at the situation at the time, there was only one person who could use the expression ‘appropriate.’
Because of that very incident, Albrich was able to lighten the mood for a while and postpone the story.
There was nothing else.
‘Is this too much of an interpretation?’
Although it was an inference he came up with on his own, Edgar, the person involved, considered it to be nothing more than a delusion.
Since the reasoning he has presented so far is correct to some extent, he is just continuing to think more and more useless thoughts.
If what he is assuming is true in the first place, the situation escalates out of control.
No, it may not be possible to end the situation at the level where it escalates.
Because there is a bigger culprit behind it than he thought.
“… No, forget it. Even I think I was too absorbed in piecing together the situation.”
“I don’t mind if you say so, but… Are you sure it’s okay?”
“Because it was nonsense to begin with.” “It’s something that shouldn’t happen.”
Edgar, with a bitter smile on his face, thanked Ariel for her hard work and hugged her tightly.
Although it was the usual expression of affection, Ariel was able to sense that the intention behind the action was that she would not say any more.
If that is his will, I have no choice but to follow it.
However, it seemed like I couldn’t listen to my request to forget.
A person’s mind does not always follow its wishes, and her personality was not very optimistic.
She knew too much to ignore the situation, thinking that the world’s affairs were not so full of schemes and secrets.
Still, the reason she didn’t bring this up in front of him was because she wanted the man to get some rest.
Since she was in Whitewood, she has never run without his help.
Sometimes, you need to clear your complicated head and take a break. Ariel wanted that more than anything.
In fact, the reason he decided to stay here instead of going to the villa today was because he hoped he would be treated well as a guest and take a break for a while.
There will be no shortage of hospitality from Robeheim Castle and the villas here, but sometimes it wouldn’t be a bad idea to spend some time in a new space for a change.
‘I feel like I’ve lost weight these days. ‘I have to feed him a lot before I go back.’
When her lover’s cheeks she felt a little thinner than before, Ariel anxiously stroked her area and made up her mind.
She said that delicacies from the mountains and seas of the Imperial Capital would be served in the Imperial Capital, so she would force them to put them all in her mouth and then treat her.
In the end, since it was her body that was to be used for her, she had to take the initiative and take care of it with all her heart her her her.
“… Man, where are you looking?”
When her eyes were on her, which she had not been able to manage, began to droop down and reach a harsh spot, Edgar hurriedly stepped behind her and her body shrunk her.
In response to the uncharacteristically girlish reaction, Ariel went out in a shameless manner.
In the first place, she said she wanted to look at something that was hers, so what’s so special about it?
Even though she pretended not to, she knew that Edgar glanced at her here and there from time to time, so she had plenty to say about this too.
“Why are you so surprised, girl? It’s mine. Can you take a look? I see you all the time too.”
“What kind of tone are you talking about… ?” …”
Edgar was completely dumbfounded when the woman who claimed to be the owner of the Grand Duke’s house spoke in the tone of a middle-aged man who was harassing a woman and acting like a man.
“Sii, am I wrong? Are you mine? No?”
“Yes, it’s yours, but… ” …”
I wondered who he could claim property from someone who was not even a slave in the first place, but Edgar was so overwhelmed by the atmosphere that he spontaneously spoke out as if possessed.
Then he gets excited and Ariel snorts and then looks satisfied.
“Where are you fussing? If the owner wants to take a look, he will say, ‘I understand.’”
“Are you still doing that damn master thing? On that topic, the other day you looked at me… Ugh!”
“Hey, won’t you shut up!? “I left it alone because I was afraid it might get tired, but it started climbing up!”
In the end, the serious atmosphere from before was gone and the two people started bickering on the bed like childish children.
There is a theory that when someone who came to serve him later knocked on the door, two people in a somewhat awkward mood appeared clearing their throats, but this was just an aside.
