The boy opened his closed eyelids and lifted his leaning body. The rain had stopped a while ago. The table and documents glowed red as if scorched in the setting sun.

He remembered the blond hair scattered on the table from earlier. He wondered how it would change under the sunset light, not bright sunlight. He ruffled his hair restlessly at the thought of her. His neat black hair spread over his forehead. Saying this is useless, he tried checking a document, but he heard a knock.

“It’s Clifton. May I come in for a moment?”

“Come in.”

With simple permission, the gap in the door slowly widened. Clifton walked in, without a sound. He put one arm in front of his stomach and deeply lowered his head.

“It’s a message from Madam that you’ll be visiting the Marquis with her in two days.”

“If it’s the Marquis, do you mean Mother’s family?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Vicente’s brow was wrinkled. It was an opportunity to see the Marquis Visaride he had been curious about. He found it difficult to reject this attractive offer.

Suddenly, Ercella smiling brightly and asking him to go together appeared in the back of his mind. That woman always makes fun of me to the end as if she possessed my head. He couldn’t understand himself even more as he can’t brush her off his mind. He felt terrible because of it.

Marquis’s manor was a little farther away from the city square. Therefore, Ercella felt a little awkward with Vicente because this was their first long ride in the carriage together.

Vicente was looking out of the window, but he seemed a little surprised by the unfamiliar scenery, perhaps because he was usually only at home. Of course, he’s been outside before. He regularly goes to inspect their territory along with Harsen.

However, it must’ve been a while visiting another family. Ercella was somehow nervous because the house used to be her home.

Was the Marquis interested in maintaining the house? I hope we have the tea from the Sansche region.

Vicente won’t mind anything, but Ercella started to worry about this and that. Vicente turned his head and looked at her, perhaps noticed Ercella’s expression.

“Is something the matter?”

“What? No…”

“You seem restless from before.”
