How long would it have been.  Somewhere I heard a crow cry.

It seemed that I forgot to fall asleep.  When I opened my eyes, I saw black hair in my sight.

Damian was still asleep, leaning on my shoulder.

I looked around slowly, moving my gaze so as not to disturb Damian’s sleep.

Crows were crying out of the window.

I opened my eyes round.

  ‘It seems like there was a war.’

The northern part was very barren.  The black swamp that seems to fall into it when you touch it, the barny trees, and the crow crying.  It seemed that it was not a lie to say.

‘They’re so gloomy!’

It seemed that it was not a lie to say that the monsters were infested.


I trembled and shook my head.

“No, I shouldn’t die already,”

I muttered as if pledged.  At that time, a crow flew toward the carriage and cried as if answering.

“……… .”

I quietly took my gaze away from the window.

For some reason, he seems to understand what I’m saying.  It seems like the eyes have met….. .

It was then.  The rattling carriage gradually slowed down.  Damian woke up as if feeling it.

“We’ve arrived,”

said Ante, opening the carriage door.  With his help, I got off the carriage with Demian.

‘Wow……..’

It was a prestigious castle.

The crows I saw on the way were flying around the mansion.

My body shrunk without my knowledge, but the warm body temperature touched my hand.

I was sorry.  I don’t want to show off any more ugly qualities in front of Damian, so I tried to laugh.

As the Duke approached the entrance, the door opened as if waiting.

  “Welcome, Duke,”

his gray-haired, butler-looking man greeted the Duke in a happy manner.

“I received a message that you came with Young Master .”

“That’s right,”

he looked back at the butler as if he suddenly remembered the Duke he was about to pass by.

“By the way, one of the scorpions is missing….”

“Who is she?”

“He also brought a child who will be his daughter-in-law.”

“Even the daughter-in-law of the council……what?  ”

The butler, who nodded, opened his eyes with a confused face.

‘It’s a little bit big to say that it’s a contempt of a deacon.’

The butler, who seemed to be surprised, looked at Ante.

Ante also shrugged his shoulders, as if asking what he was hoping for him to answer.

“It was like that.”

“Even the knight……”

mumbled the butler with a desperate face.

‘He won’t be glad to see me again.’

Suddenly, I remembered what happened when I was dismissed.

“Call me mom from now on.”

She laughed kindly, and as soon as she learned that I was the daughter of the thief, her attitude changed.

“Why didn’t you say it?”

“You are…. very impudent.”

Those eyes at that time were still clear.  I understand her heart now, but I was younger than I am at that time, so I expected to meet a new family.  Foolishly.

  ‘But not now.’

All I was hoping for was preparation for the future.  I didn’t want anything like a warm family.

So, I was confident that I would pass it on without any comments.

  When thinking so, Butler said in an awkward voice.

“I don’t mean there is a maid to take care of the lady. Did he give his a scorpion in advance.”

Miss?  A maid to supplement?

” I am…… good at myself.”

I didn’t want to look like an annoying child who even needed other people.

“I’ll be quiet. I don’t need other people’s help. I can do it myself.”

  What can’t I do alone?  However, contrary to my confident words, the butler’s face was more blurred.

“………Ok.”

The butler nodded with a sincere face at the low call of the Duke.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure you don’t care about it.”

When the Duke nodded silently.

  “ Lord Duke, the vassals and people on the sidelines are waiting for the Lord.”

Ante approached the Duke and whispered a little.

  “Did the rumors leak out?”

“Probably so.”

“Because I have a lot of ears to hear, it is natural that I have a lot of fluttering mouths.”

Take a break for now.

The room is Franz, he make it up for him.

“Okay,”

the Duke moved away with Ante.
I looked at the back blankly and thought of what I had heard.

vassal.  Collateral.

‘All of them are threatening Damian’s future.

Although Duke Shuetz adopted Damian, it was a distant future for the two to build a bond in earnest.

In other words, it meant that Damian’s ordeal was not yet over.

‘I can’t see that kind of thing again.’

I gave strength to my hand as if determined.

Before the Duke and children arrive at the ball creation.

People gathered in one room were fighting each other, raising their throats.

“It’s ridiculous. He found a child! There’s no way he could be alive!”

“But the Duke did not check directly with both eyes.”

“It must be a lie. Honestly, it’s like a mana stone, isn’t it just a replacement? How do we know if he’ve used a dirty number?”

One of the trails shouted in anger.

It was the work of Corbino, who had supplemented the Duke of Schuetz for a long time.

“Think about it. 10 years. No, it’s 11 years to be precise. It’s not another top, it’s a climber’s top. We’ve been running that big top. But it’s just going back to someone who doesn’t know where they rolled and ate it.  Does it make sense?”

“Cough…….”

Other nobles coughed in vain at the words of his own.  They were pretending to dry on the outside, but they were thinking the same way.

When the Duke of Kleider, who contributed greatly to the development of the empire, died, the Duke Klyder’s vassals and assistants were very happy.

Because he had the opportunity to have that honor and wealth.

However, Kleider surrendered all of his fortune to the Duke of Schuetz.

Those words sounded like a cheer for Bang Gye and other nobles who were aiming for Duke Kleider.

Even though it wasn’t, Duke Shuetz got involved in a mud fight.

For this reason, the nobles who coveted the upper part of the climber were eager to catch up with the operation of the upper part.

However, the Duke did a great job at the top of the climber.

Shuetz’s assistants were delighted.  Having the top of the empire so easily.

It would have been nice if he could gulp like this…… .

But the Duke found the child of the Duke Climber.

Everything seemed to be lost before his eyes.

So he had to deny it by pouring it all out.  must.

“This is something we’ve been putting up with a lot. We can’t stand it anymore. We have to find a way too!”

Viscount Corbino shouted like a wedge.

“We also have a similar thought…”

“Is there anybody who can overcome the Duke. If he could break his will, he would have done it soon.”

As the nobles said so, their gaze was blurred.

In that attitude, Viscount Corbino clenched this.

‘Is He like old friends who can’t communicate?’

You seem to lose everything in vain.

It was when Viscount Corbino was about to burst the branches he had piled up.

“What are so many words?”

“…….. .”

As the door opened, Erhard entered.

“I was outside and my ears hurt too.”

Erhard muttered with an emotionless face, and the simmering atmosphere subsided, as if splashed with frozen water.

  “……..Are you here, Duke.”

“Yeah. It seemed like you were going to throw a word at a time, so you personally visited me.”

It was like a sharp blade.  The nobles who were trying to soothe the atmosphere while laughing awkwardly asked each one of them.

The room became cramped and quiet.  Only then did Erhard open his mouth.

“You don’t have to spend time in other words. Everything I hear.”

“……. .”

“I found the child. Klaider’s son was right.”

The nobles laughed effortlessly as they swallowed the invasion.

“Sure… Congratulations. What’s the name of Yong Master?”

“You said Damian,”

The Duke replied lightly.

” Is that right?  It’s a really spirited and cool name.  So, from now on, he will be the one who will lead the Kleider family.  ”

As if a nobleman had been waiting, he put up a horse.

It was a word that drew a line, as if Damian and Shuetz could not fit together.


‘They can’t see you with there eyes open.’

Damian was the creators who would bite the boy anytime soon if he inherited the name of Kleider.

Erhard glanced at them as they tried hard and opened his mouth.

  “You made a very clever friend. You brought it with you because I thought it would be helpful to the family.”

“What do you mean?”

Erhard leaned deeply against the back of his chair and pulled up one of his mouths.

“I’m going to give the two kids a formal successor education.”

“Yes? Duke, that means…”

” It means that we will spare no support for the children so that they can succeed in the name of the climber.”
