"Who would have thought that the famous Lord Neuvillette would also have monts where he deliberately hurts others?"
"Now I'm really curious. If you were exiled to ropide Fortress, wouldn't that an you'd be under my jurisdiction? That would make your superior, wouldn't it?"
"From a legal and procedural standpoint, that is indeed the case."
"I never expected such a day to co. I'm really looking forward to it..."
"Duke, please say a few words less. Can't you see that Lord Neuvillette is feeling very down?"
"Besides, if you keep chattering like this, it will interfere with my treatnt."
"Head Nurse Sigewinne, don't look at , don't count on . One of them is Fontaine's Chief Justice, and the other is the ruler of ropide Fortress, while I'm just an ordinary Fontaine Special Security Team Captain..."
"When these two big shots are talking, I don't have a place to interrupt..."
In a daze, Su Yuan could hear voices conversing around him...
His head felt dizzy, and his entire body ached all over, with no place free from pain...
His eyelids felt as if they were glued shut.
Su Yuan tried hard to open his eyes, attempting several tis, but failed every ti...
"Just now, did Su Yuan's eyelids and eyeballs move a little?"
"Yes, this ans the treatnt is working. His condition is improving..."
"As expected of my most trusted Head Nurse Sigewinne! Your dical skills are nothing short of miraculous!"
"Thank you, Sigewinne."
"It's nothing, Lord Neuvillette. This is simply my duty. Saving lives and healing the wounded is our calling, after all."
Gradually, Su Yuan felt his body recovering sowhat.
Slowly, he opened his eyes.
"He opened them! Su Yuan is awake!"
"Thank goodness, this is truly a blessing amidst misfortune..."
Su Yuan looked around and saw Sigewinne, then Wriothesley, then Neuvillette, and finally, Chevreuse...
"Chevreuse, you're okay... that's such a relief..." Su Yuan said weakly.
"Mm, I'm fine," Chevreuse nodded.
"But you, on the other hand, are seriously injured and need proper rest."
"Su Yuan, I am sorry. I offer you my sincere apology..."
Neuvillette lowered his head slightly, speaking with genuine remorse.
"It's alright, Neuvillette. I understand... This isn't your fault. This is all because of..." Su Yuan started speaking, but just as he was about to say the word 'Eerie,' he forcefully swallowed it back down...
There were simply too many people here.
The existence of Eerie was sothing best kept to as few people as possible—otherwise, it could cause unnecessary panic and chaos...
Neuvillette quickly understood Su Yuan's intent and turned to Sigewinne.
"Sigewinne, could you step out for a mont? There are so matters we need to discuss."
"Of course, Lord Neuvillette. Su Yuan's condition has stabilized, and there's no imdiate danger to his life. I'll step out for now. Call anyti if you need ."
Sigewinne nodded, gave a few final instructions, and then left the room.
"Neuvillette, you're still as considerate toward lusines as ever, huh..." Wriothesley waved his hand with an innocent expression.
"But what about ? Aren't you going to ask to leave as well?"
"I have a feeling... that whatever you're about to discuss is sothing very dangerous... And once I know about it, there'll be no turning back for ..."
"Wriothesley, we need your strength," Neuvillette said calmly.
"Are you... begging ?"
Neuvillette: ...
Ignoring Wriothesley, Neuvillette continued, "Su Yuan, as a condition for keeping this secret, Chevreuse has also requested to know the truth and join us..."
Chevreuse nodded in agreent.
"Since Su Yuan is injured and unable to speak easily, I will recount what he previously told ."
With that, Neuvillette began explaining the existence of Eerie and so of the detailed rules to everyone in the room...
........
"So, the that Chevreuse saw at that ti... wasn't actually , but rather under the control of an Eerie..."
"Fortunately, at the last mont, the sky cleared, and the Eerie temporarily vanished. I was able to stop myself just in ti—otherwise, I would have had even more guilt weighing on ..."
"To be honest, Lord Neuvillette, one second you were trying to kill , and the next, you suddenly apologized and asked to stop the others from coming upstairs. I was completely stunned and had no idea what was going on..."
Chevreuse spoke up, "If it weren't for that overwhelming and malevolent aura suddenly disappearing without a trace, I would have found it very difficult to believe you under those circumstances..."
"The others were easier to handle, but Lady Furina... She was absolutely insistent on going upstairs to see what was happening. I had no choice but to use so... special asures. I knocked her out and sent her back to her suite."
"I just hope that when Lady Furina wakes up, she won't hold accountable for it..."
"This really is quite the troubleso situation..."
After listening to the full story, Wriothesley nodded.
"Neuvillette, I can help you—but you'll owe a favor."
"Alright," Neuvillette nodded.
"Good. Now, let tell you how you can repay that favor," Wriothesley continued.
"I don't like owing people favors, and I don't like others owing either."
"Get so top-quality tea from Qingce Village, and we'll call it even. How about that?"
"So whenever you cry, it rains in Fontaine. You really are..." Wriothesley stroked his chin and looked at Neuvillette with an expression of I knew it all along...
Su Yuan wasn't surprised by Wriothesley's reaction.
After all, in the later parts of the original ga's storyline, it was already hinted that Wriothesley had more or less figured out Neuvillette's true identity...
"Lord Neuvillette crying causes rain in Fontaine?" Chevreuse, on the other hand, suddenly showed an expression of utter shock, completely losing her usual calm and rational deanor...
"Could it be... Lord Neuvillette is the Hydro Dragon Sovereign???"
