Herscherik

Gene entered the mansion's hidden study late at night when he returned from the castle. This is a secret room that is only known to some humans, even in the mansion. It is a place of intimate meetings or where there are materials and books that cannot be placed on the table. The poison I tried to give Hershelik was also the method described in the book in this room.

Gene fishes a pile of paperwork so that he doesn't make as much noise as he can. Minimal balls of light appeared on hand and the documents were fished. But I can't find anything useful about Hershelik.

(Information Your Highness needs………)

Gene thinks.

I was wondering if it would still be evidence of my father's crimes.

(No. Your Highness should have more information than you need.

Change your mind immediately.

There is certainly information about the dark things that my father has been doing in this place.

But decisive evidence is no.

Gene has looked closely at my father. I couldn't have come alive if I hadn't seen it.

My father is cautious. Though it was a secret place to keep evidence that would ruin me, I didn't think I'd keep it where more than one human would know. Besides, that kind of dangerous stuff was letting the aristocrats in the distribution hold it, preventing themselves from getting firepowder on it.

And weigh your profits and losses, and if you have to, treat each of your nobles and thoroughly minimize the harm to you.

That is the head of the Marquis Barbasse family that is cowing this country.

Are you leaving such evidence as far as my father can find for himself...

Gene gets up when he leaks a small sigh.

There was a slight discomfort in the footsteps when I walked out to change places. Turning the crouching carpet, there was a different floor there than the others. The floor could easily be removed even by the woman Gene, and there was a safe inside.

(This is………)

Vaults with no boundaries stretched. For a moment, Gene thought it might be the back money, but he changes his mind. The advantage of the junction is its defense and the role of the alarm when it is broken. But from those who sense magic, on the contrary, it becomes a landmark that there is something important on the spot. Bounded vaults can contain important things all in all, and vaults with no boundaries are rarely thought to be of little importance and targeted.

However, if you read the back, if you visually hide the unbound vault, it is unlikely that you will be discovered because there is no landmark for the junction.

Gene turns his ear and dial the vault to discourage the feeling of deviation.

When I lived in the flower district, I had a regular mother with bad habits. The regular told me a lot about sneaking up on myself. Among them, there was a way to open the safe. The lock opens after a chilling noise.

When I opened it, a number of letters appeared. Gene pulls it open in his hand and approaches the light. Then he confirms the contents of the letter, and Gene closes his eyes once.

(Father, you are still………)

Gene retrieves all the multiple documents in the vault and starts working on them.

And after all the work, I put everything back in the safe, and when I put the floor and carpet back together, I left the room.

(I need to tell His Highness soon. And vio...)

Reduce the urge to run and continue down the corridor. But there were those who prevented him from going.

"What are you doing?

"…… Father.

Gene is in a hurry. It is unlikely that I will see my father at this hour. Yet I can only assume that I had no luck seeing him.

"... did the prince turn it off?

"No. But I still have a chance.

Yes, as usual, I answer clerically. Try to keep your mind normal and don't be suspicious.

"I see. Speaking of which, could you ask for one, little bird?

"Yes."

Gene answered my father as usual.

Violetta tilts her neck.

"Where's your sister?

No matter who you ask, you won't get the answer you want.

It's been three days since I last had it with my sister. A peek into the room didn't make me feel like I was home, and I've never seen my sister this much before.

I was on my way to my father's study to ask him by last resort.

Violetta didn't like my father. I was somewhat afraid of that big physique and presence, and I didn't want to see him from myself.

Except this time. To find out where my favorite sister is, not being a good father can only be a small handicap.

As soon as I turn around the corner of the hallway, that's my father's study. It had already been investigated by the butler that he had a father.

But coming to the door of the study, Violetta stops walking. Because the door was just a little cleared, and I heard a different voice from my father from it.

(Are you visiting?

As a lady there is. Seriously, but Violetta sneaks up on her ears. Apparently there was a father and multiple guests inside.

Something was hard to talk about, and I heard my father.

"Do you think we can keep the Knights and the vigilante down tonight?

"We have already hand-windled.

"Hmm, you church. I don't know what you're thinking...... but this is cheap if you think you can erase the prince after all that blindness.

Violetta takes a breath in her unlikely remarks as a subordinate. And he hurriedly pressed his mouth so that his voice wouldn't leak.

A guest nodded in tune with my father's words.

"We had painful eyes on that prince, too. But wait, are you sure you want to take your daughter?

"You mean my daughter, that little girl named Gene? Even though there's no certainty that it's really my kid? It's troublesome when it gets noisy, so I used it for my Violetta counterpart, but it's time for the tide. I don't think it would be particularly a shame.

Violetta knew her sister was a half-sister. But none of us suspected that a sister with eyes the same color as ourselves would be our true sister. Even if there is no blood connected to it, my sister, who has always been with me, is dozens of times more important than my elder brother, who sends me a gaze that I always look down on, rather than my second brother, who doesn't know where he is, than my father, who just works and doesn't eat with me.

"The princes and the church will finish... but let's prepare ourselves for the future. Because this country is ours.

Violetta takes a few steps back with her mouth pressed against the words of her out-of-the-box father. The last prince, no doubt about Hershelik. And if my father's words are true, my sister is going to turn them off with me.

(No…………)

Violetta leaves the scene to make no noise and walks back to her room early.

(What do I do, what do I do?!

I was beating fast. I can't think together and get confused. But there's only one person in my head.

(Master Hershelik)

Violetta popped out of the room when she grabbed her coat. Head to the castle from the back door so no one can find you.

If we don't do something, Hershelik and his sister will.

But do you want to enter the castle with a child? Usually my sister stayed with me and got the process done. You can't call my father even if he's Barbasse's daughter.

Continue along the main street in confusion. I didn't realize it because I always traveled by carriage, but the castle is quite a distance away.

The crowd broke. I see a carriage wearing it from the rear. When a carriage of noble men passes, the people of the castle make way for no disrespect. Of course everyone paved the way for the carriage Violetta was riding in.

View the carriage coming towards you. And looking at the design, Violetta jumped out of the people's walls onto the open road, but rolled onto the ground.

He notices the shadow and hurries to pull the reins. The horse hissed as he complained and stopped walking.

"Little girl, you know who these carriage riders are!

A shadow pops up and a girl and an acquaintance yells. But Violetta lifted her torso without pulling.

"Please help me!!

"What are you talking about, pave the way!

"Please, help me!

lay flat to rub his head on the ground on the spot. The man is here, and when he gets out of the carriage, he reaches out his hand to get Violetta away.

"Wait, a crying girl is willing to work intact even though the people are asking for help?

The carriage door opens and a boy emerges from inside turns a stern gaze to stop him.

"But..."

He looks back with a troubled face. Two people passed by and helped Violetta wake up.

"Are you okay?"

"Come on, wipe your tears?

One of the two passing by, a girl hands over a handkerchief. But Violetta doesn't receive it, so she wipes her own wet cheek tears and dirt with her clothes sleeves.

"That, you are……………."

Another boy within the two tilted his neck. I remember seeing her.

And I knew Violetta, the boy who scolded you, and the two people who helped me up.

"Please. Please match your Highness Hershelik!

Violetta gets up and lowers her head vigorously. The three men who stepped out of the carriage, the three sons of the kingdom of Gracis, the princess Cecily, and the princes Arlia and Lenette looked at each other.
