Immediately, accusations from the other tutors burst out upon Viscount Cates.

Please refrain from such frivolous remarks, Viscount!

Why are you doing this? Can you take responsibility for that?

Stop.

All noise stopped at my cold warning.

I glanced at the Viscount.

She inhaled and continued.

The Lord cannot concentrate in class for more than 30 minutes, and sometimes sitting quietly in a chair is considered torture. Still, I felt that he was very eager, so I thought he was born with a lack of attention. But the premise was wrong from the beginning. He wasnt trying to keep up, he was desperately trying to pretend he couldnt keep up.

I heard someone sniff loudly, but I only looked in that direction and continued to ignore it.

It was only recently that I became convinced He asked if he could finish the class early for the time being if he made a noticeable difference. Its a secret that others have come to know.

Did he tell you why?

He said he has to watch out for some precious person to him so that they wont be in danger. He didnt tell me who it was.

Precious person?

Without realizing it, I glared at Aedis. He had a look on his face that asked if he needed a reason.

Im pretty sure its not Aedis in the part where so they wont be in danger.

Viscount Cates class starts after lunch.

At that time I enjoy dessert and tea time.

And used to go for light walks.

Well.

Lets think about who Regens precious person is later.

What if Viscount Cates claims were true?

Why did Regen pretend that the class was difficult?

I couldnt help but think of a certain man at once.

Gilbert always kept Regen in check.

If he had known that Regen had tremendous potential and was even brilliant, it would have bothered him several times more than it does now.

Of course, even in Esmeraldas Crescent Moon, it was described how the male lead had excellent situation-judging ability and his brain rotated quickly, as if he was a man who chewed the magic tower alone.

However, it was an ability gained by rolling around his head and taking heart aches, and then awakening saying that it is impossible to lose everything like this.

Thats why I also didnt take it seriously that Regen put on a puzzled expression every time he looked at his homework.

I thought it was just because it was hard to concentrate.

Even in the novel, it was said that before awakening, he was nothing but an ordinary boy.

I rolled my eyes.

At that moment, my eyes met the old baron who was in charge of Regens history class.

The baron had been staring at my head since before.

It was clearly the head, not the face. I tilted my head, wondering if it was something he should look at with such a piercing focus although my husband decorated it with all his heart.

Baron? Do you have anything to say to me?

That is

The baron suddenly trembled as if doused in cold water.

It was due to the fact that Aedis was staring at him with sharp eyes, overshadowing his hidden presence.

Oh, no. Please forgive my disrespect, Your Grace.

The baron had a very complicated face.

But I sent the baron and other tutors away without asking, because my feelings were more complex than those of the baron. And lay face down on the table.

There are still many things I dont know about Regen.

It has been less than half a year since the wife came here. So, of course. Aedis said frankly.

After all, no matter how young he was, he was a person like me, and it would be impossible to grasp everything in a short time.

Maybe its also because Ive never been close with children.

Why did Regen do that?

I think you should ask the question again, Eve. You shouldnt ask why, you should ask why he started making it obvious. I dont think he woke up and his brain suddenly improved. If he had changed in such an instant, theres no way the wife wouldnt have felt uncomfortable.

Huh

My limp body lifted lightly.

Aedis sat me on his lap and asked.

Eve, what do you think Regen thinks of Gilbert?

His only blood in the world?

Regen knows. How much Gilbert hates himself. However, in the meantime, it must have been nothing more than pretending not to know anything voluntarily or by force from his father.

..

When Gilbert first resorted to violence, Regen asked me not to interfere. He said he could handle it. In fact, Gilbert behaved much more violently in the capital without Regen. But the brainwashing has been cleared up, and Gilbert has gone so far as to blatantly target the wife, so I dont feel the need to put up with it any longer. So it must have been obvious enough for the tutor to notice.

I know that it will eventually reach the wife, whether it is late or early.

I covered the nape of my neck with both hands.

Aediss breath occasionally brushed against my neck that was not covered, as bitter as it was sweet.

Ooh, we should focus on the conversation now.

It sounds like Regen looked after Gilbert.

After all, its his child. As I said, Regen is not normal. It doesnt mean theyre the same, though.

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the . website.

Aedis blinked as I pulled back.

He continued explaining with a bewildered look.

Even if the wife is not in a hurry, Regen will come first. After removing Gilbert from the list of priorities, he seems to have both a sense of duty to protect the wife and a desire to be praised.

Come to think of it, Regen made it clear that I needed protection because I was weaker than Aedis or Madame Theresa. He acted like he would never compromise on that part.

I dont know if its good or bad to be treated like the weakest by Regen.

But the wife is not just being treated as the weakest by Regen?

Hey, dont hit me with words, okay.

***

While I was paying attention to Regen, the weather was getting colder.

In the north, the four seasons have no meaning at all, but autumn was coming to an end anyway.

My birthday was approaching day by day.

That morning, a letter arrived from my parents early in the morning.

I had written in a letter sent the other day that I was going to dismiss Gilbert, so it was a fairly quick reply.

My parents were very happy with the decision and informed me that they were going to visit the North for my birthday.

However, it was difficult to make time long enough to travel, so they hired magicians from the magic tower to use space movement magic.

Because the distance from the capital to the north was far, they would have to use space movement magic at least five times.

Aside from the fact that it will cost them a lot, theyll probably suffer from motion sickness for a few days.

I finished reading the letter with tender and warm feelings.

On the last line, instead of saying that Mother would like to see me soon, she wrote a message of encouragement.

Monica and the daughter of the Morgoz family set off ahead of time, but I think they will arrive soon. She wanted to see you a lot, so welcome her warmly.

Pft!

When I suddenly tried to spit out the tea, the butler was startled.

Your Grace?

It was an emergency.

And Mother, what do you mean Monica?!

Since when we were close enough to call each other by name

My mother even urged me to warmly welcome her.

My mother, Diana Morgana, was notorious for being cold-blooded, so she wasnt one to say this idly.

I dont know how often Monica went in and out of the mansion while I was away.

You have to close the gate

Yes?

The latest_epi_sodes are on_the . website.

I took a deep breath.

Unplanned No, because I expected a guest who I didnt want to come to curse, no, congratulate me on my birthday.

The butler looked down at me as I said something that I would not normally have said.

Your Grace, how about increasing the size of the party to celebrate Your Graces birthday? Invite not only northern retainers but also central nobles. Wouldnt it be better to invite the royal family?

It was an unprecedented offer that did not fit the position of the butler, so when I stared at him, he coughed.

It was a proposal from the Master.

What.

It was as shocking as when I heard Aedis say I was frugal.

I havent attended a social party since becoming Grand Duchess.

So, if he cared, its not impossible to understand The emphasis was on having Aedis act as my partner.

When I entered the ballroom with Aedis in the capital, the reaction of the nobles was consistent.

They looked at Aedis like the devil from hell.

I wondered if Aedis will receive that kind of gaze again.

Also on my birthday.

Although my husbands attitude was happy, I didnt want him to have to go through such an unpleasant experience again, so I found an excuse.

But now, isnt it too late to scale up?

There were a lot of people who would want to forfeit. We have a good budget.

Please dont make me a bad employer. No, do you have more money than that?

Do you want to invite the royal family and the central nobles?

The butler and I looked at each other and tilted our heads.

Your Grace, didnt you budget it for 10 billion marks?

What?

10 billion?

Ive never heard of this?!

What nonsense, cough cough!

I shouted and beat my chest.

The one I approved was 10 million marks?!

How many zeros did you suddenly multiply?

It was on a scale comparable to that of the emperors birthday party, which was held throughout the full moon.

Recently, the financial condition of the imperial family is not good, so maybe more.

But exactly 10 billion marks were stated.

Who manipulated the paperwork Of course it would be Aedis.

I should have known when he told me I was frugal.

It was an amount that I couldnt even afford to spend with my normal habits, so he had the illusion that I had been living frugally.
