Chapter 32
It was said that in ancient tis, so magicians contracted spirits and were able to use special abilities other than magic.
However, 500 years ago, the population suddenly plumted, making it a rare species that appeared only in legends.
“It is said they had existed since the ti when the bell tower was built, but no one has actually seen them,” Aedis replied.
“Then why do you do that ritual?”
“It’s to comfort the Grand Duchess, who will have to live a lifeti in the barren North, in the form of a blessing from the spirits. And anyway, is it a ‘traditional’ consciousness?”
“Hmm.”
“There is no monunt to the spirit, but it is said that if you go to the bell, you will feel strangely calm afterward.”
I reacted coldly. “But it’s a calmness I don’t need. Besides, I don’t have much trust. Would the spirit that doesn’t show itself really bless ? I’d be glad if you weren’t an.”
Aedis tried to open his mouth and seed to be trying to elaborate on his consciousness.
Suddenly, a good idea ca up. “No, wait a minute. Don’t answer .” I closed Aedis’ mouth and laughed. “I’ll ask the Lord for more information.”
It was a traditional ceremony of the historic Kalakiss family.
Regen wouldn’t even know very much.
No, it was okay if he didn’t know. At that ti, we just have to ask Aedis to listen together. If he knew, Regen would explain it, and I just needed to concentrate hard and listen.
Anyway, if we were stuck together, we would naturally beco close.
It was important to see his face often and talk often.
“Then I’ll go! Oh, can I bring Regen here later? If you’re uncomfortable, you can just show your face for a mont.”
Aedis asked with an expression of surprise, “Should I answer this question?”
I smiled with my eyes. “Of course, Aedis.”
“…..”
“What’s wrong?”
“Do whatever you like.”
Aedis turned his head, aning he had nothing more to ask. It didn’t seem like he was seriously upset.
I took my lap blanket and went outside.
“Sarah, where is Regen now?”
Sarah, who had received Regen’s schedule in advance from Mrs. Theresa, said straight away, “He usually goes to take a light walk after lunch, but he’ll be in his room today because he’s sick of the weather. Then, he’ll have a history class two hours later.
That much ti was enough.
I rushed to Regen’s room.
“Milord, this is Maevia. Do you have a mont?”
When I knocked on the door and asked, I heard a rumbling sound inside the room, and the door slightly opened.
An eight-year-old boy with red eyes like ripe fruit stuck out his head.
His white and chubby cheeks soon turned red.
“Your Highness, the Grand Duchess?”
I could hear Sarah inhaling her breath from behind.
Regen was a little cute. He ate well, slept well, and played hard, so he was full of energy.
“Co-co in.”
After opening the door wide, Regen straightened the desk chair upright.
The noise I just heard must’ve been caused by the chair falling down.
(T/N: Poor kid, he must’ve been so shocked XD)
On the desk, thick history books were laid out as if proving that he was preparing for study.
However, I could see scribbles in fresh ink, signaling he was bored.
‘Yes, just sitting at a desk at that age is daunting.’
Even the capital aristocrats did not expect much from children under the age of ten.
It was fortunate enough if they weren’t mischievous and broke the family heirloom by mistake.
As a child, Charlie had a fight with her sister, and without knowing it, she tore up a painting the Marquis of Morgoz had bought for 100 million markas.
To be precise, she struck the fra with the painting on her sister’s head. Then her sister threw a 600 million markas bottle of wine.
I rember being surprised that Charlie, who had never been angry in front of Monica, had a bloody fight with her younger sister.
The Marquis of Morgoz, who blew 700 million marks in an instant, shed bloody tears and complained to his father.
Regen pulled the table chair back and looked at with big eyes. “Sit here, Your Highness.”
Sarah was more moved than by the action.
“Oh my…”
Sarah basically liked anyone who was good to .
I liked cute and small things, such as small animals.
Regen was both of them, so I understood why Sarah was so thrilled as she closed her mouth.
The maid caring for Regen set the tea and put a simple dessert on the table.
After a sip of tea, I spoke up.
“Aren’t you surprised that I co by suddenly? In fact, I need the Lord’s help.”
“My help…?”
“Yes, your help. I don’t know that I have to go to the bell tower and perform a traditional ceremony.”
“I’m sure my father or older brother will know that better than …”
“Maybe, but I think it will be very reassuring if the Lord says a word for .”
I skipped the information that I had learned from Aedis in making this excuse.
Regen shut his mouth and was lost in thought.
I wondered if he would refuse, so my eyes shine as much as possible.
I didn’t forget to send telepathy in my mind.
‘I am on the side of the Lord. So, don’t run away from ho, don’t be indifferent or injured, how about growing up just like you are now?’
It was said that a healthy body and mind are more valuable assets than anything else.
Regen rose up from the chair and I saw if my glance attack had worked.
He walked towards , looking at the maids.
Soon the eight-year-old boy whispered to my ears as if telling a secret. “The spirit in the bell tower. There are rumors that the first Grand Duke sealed it.”
… It was nice to say it to my ear, but the volu of your voice is the sa as usual.
However, neither I nor the maids pointed it out.
I narrowed my eyebrows and focused on the topic of conversation.
Anyway, it was more than enough to make curious.
“Sealed?”
“Most of the spirits in nature are quiet, but only the spirits living in the north continue to harass people. So there is a story that the first Grand Duke sealed it in a stone statue and then dragged it to the bell tower. If they bless the Kallakis Family, the seal will be released after a thousand years.”
‘You’re so cute, and I want to look good to you, but why don’t you take your mouth off my ears or reduce the volu of your voice a little?’
My eardrum was starting to sting.
Pretending to correct my posture, I asked, pulling away a little bit. “But why is the Grand Duchess the one asking for a blessing?”
Regen, who couldn’t understand the signal, steadfastly looked for my ears and moved his lips.
And he cast the third eardrum terror attack.
“The nanny didn’t tell that much…Well, but I heard the blood of the family!” Regen shouted as if it had suddenly co to mind.
‘Ahh! My ears!’
I had a spasm in my facial muscles, but I succeeded in creating sothing like a smile.
“Very…It was helpful. Would you like to sit down? I want to talk to the Lord face to face.”
“Oh, yes!”
As Regen returned to his seat, I quickly rubbed my ear.
Sarah said, “Sohow, it doesn’t seem like this will end today, so I’ll make a good redy for the eardrum,” and the maid in charge of Regen couldn’t lift her head.
By the way, did the spirit recognize the blood of the Kallakis family?
A thousand years was a long ti for spirits living in nature or things.
Was it not strange to say that it’s not a blessing but a curse. Why did Aedis say it was okay to make a wish?
Well, there was no need to think about it seriously.
Aedis is not the orthodox heir to the blood of the first Grand Duke of Kallakis, so why can’t he co?
If the spirits were cursed, wouldn’t they be weakened to so extent if they were divided in half?
Maybe Aedis’s ability would work with the spirits.
At this point, I should thank my husband. Regen added, “On a moon-shrouded night, he said he wished for the wellbeing of the Kallakis family and peace in the North, the first Grand Duke.
It was a very ambiguous wind together.
For now, there was no way to know clearly whether the family prospered and the northern part beca peaceful because the spirits blessed it, or if it was just the achievent of the Kalakis family.
“Thank you for the explanation. I’m glad I asked the Lord.”
As he smiled, Regen’s face was colored red.
“I-I’m glad it helped.”
Regen bit the cookie in his mouth, perhaps embarrassed of looking at him.
I averted my gaze.
It was an action taken to endure an awkward situation.
“…..”
“…..”
‘Oh no, we have to break this silence quickly.’
