The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight's favorites

"Eh...?

Sofia shakes again, this time consciously. Now there was a sound that was so strong that it was hard to say that I had never heard it wrong. Gilbert and Fecht were also looking at Sofia.

"I didn't hear anything like that when I checked earlier."

Fecht stared strangely. But it did make a sound.

"─ ─ That's not antique. It's a magic tool."

Gilbert's words were unexpected. This lamp belongs to Sofia's father, who was the baron before him.

"But this has been going on forever ─ ─"

Looking at the lamp while confused, Gilbert approached Sofia. He put his hand out and handed over the lamp. Gilbert observed it and waved gently, but it didn't sound.

"The lamp itself is oil-type. Another feature is probably only available to the Baron."

Do you have magic tools like that?

"A lot of things are restricted to relatives. Especially when it comes to hiding something like this lamp. ─ ─ Hold on a second."

Gilbert took off the lampshade and put it on the desk with the lamp, and copied the pattern engraved on the shaft onto paper. Drawings and numbers are added to the paper that extract some of them.

"Isn't that the pattern...?

"This is a magic device circuit. I wish I knew how to activate it now ─ ─"

Fecht peeked into Gilbert's hand. After a while, I will point to the diagram.

"Isn't there enough information here and here?

"Do you understand?"

"... a little bit. If you don't mind, let me take a look."

Gilbert immediately showed Fecht the paper and lamp at hand. Fecht adds some information to the formula that Gilbert wrote, and Gilbert breaks it down further. Sofia was staring at their work without understanding what was going on.

"─ ─ Grab this and push it in. Sofia, come here."

Stand in front of the lamp as it is called. Grab the embellishment on the axis with the left hand with the ring Gilbert gave you. There's no place to push it in, so I pushed it in with all my heart.

The pedestal is broken and opened. As expected, Sofia relieved her cheeks of the nostalgia she visited with tension. Diamond earrings and rings are dulled by metal, but the stone's shine remains unchanged.

"Mother....."

I put it on my palm and wrapped it in prayer. Gilbert raised his face in a hurry at the trick, but it was already after the magic tool was activated.

Gorgeous music is playing like a night club. There was a modest laugh with a little sweetness.

"What are you laughing at?

A voice that was not too low sounded gently, and Sofia watched. This is the voice of Sofia's father. At the same time, she realized that the previous laughter belonged to her mother and closed her eyes. I didn't want to miss any shards.

"Because if you say so. I'm not leaving Sofia until I get out."

"I don't know what to do. It's pathetic to leave him alone in the mansion at night."

"Oh, she's pretty solid."

"Still, it is. I'm worried about what I have to worry about."

"Fufu. ─ ─ Well then, let's get this over with."

The music stops and sounds like a crowd. Gilbert grabbed Sofia's hand.

"─ ─ Sofia, more than that"

Sofia, who opened her eyes, could not conceal her surprise at Gilbert's serious expression, which was just around the corner. Gilbert's stopping it must be hard for Sofia. But you can't be unaware. Shake your neck to the left and right and grip your combined hands even harder. As Gilbert sighed small, he let go and gently wrapped Sofia's hand again.

"─ ─ Brother. What's the use of summoning people at night clubs?"

"Because you're running away. [M] You really know what you're doing."

What are you doing ─ ─

"Don't get caught in the immediate interest. The thing you're raising is illegal."

"That's right. As it stands, the baron's house is going to fail. Not yet...!

"... shut up!

There was a loud, cancerous sound and a short scream. Sofia trembles her shoulders.

"I will report this to the Knights immediately. I thought he was my brother, and I came to convince him that it was useless."

"Do something like that, and I'll lead you all the way. I'll kill you... I'll kill you!

"─ ─ That's not true. I should have talked to you sooner."

Back to the sound of the night club, after a while, the sound and voice disappeared. Looks like he's going home.

"─ ─ I'm sorry. I'm feeling a little crazy."

Percy, let's get out of here.

"Yes, right away."

There is a sound from one place to the next. You must have taken the carriage. Sofia knew where the carriage was going, and she strengthened her power to meditate. Maybe there's nothing I can do about it now. I can see your body trembling. Still, I wanted to hear the voice of my father and mother until the end, and I wanted to face the truth ─ ─ I didn't relax my combined hands.

"Hey, what are you going to do?

I see. I was hoping that we could talk and understand each other ─ ─ Hard. I will ask the Count to move the Knights as soon as possible. "

"But there's Bianca in that house. I'm sure it's the same age as Sofia."

"You can go home if you want. It's none of her business. But is Sofia okay?"

"Oh, why?

"─ ─ She must be a stranger."

"Fufu. Because you're really sweet to Sofia."

I see.... I want to go home soon. "

The conversation broke down and the raven rang. The carriage sounds louder.

"Percy! What are you doing!?

"I'm sorry your brother asked me to."

This ─ ─

"You!?

"Percy got off the carriage! Besides, here ─ ─"

The loud sound of something breaking and the sound of trees breaking. Sofia took a breath when she heard a banging sound. Turn around and be wrapped in silence. It was Fecht who first opened his mouth.

"─ ─ I will tell you this. The Marquis needs evidence."

Is that a concern for Sofia? I can hear the door close so far. Gilbert's hand encouraged Sofia to stay still.

I knew nothing would change if I stayed like this. Sofia herself knows that her parents fell off the cliff and died. There is no doubt that the current audio is from that time.

"─ ─ Sofia, I see..."

It was a faint voice. A modest voice with a little sweetness is swept away. Sofia opened her eyes to an unexpected voice. This was definitely a word to Sofia. The tears that you should have endured are overflowing.

"Mother...?

"I don't know... let me. I can't go home. You... nausea ─ ─"

Sofia sat flat on the floor. I can't stop hearing the last word. And now I didn't hear anything more from the earrings.
