Untouchable Lady

Chapter 17

When she thought about it, Hilise wasn’t a difficult Master for May.

In fact, May could say that her personality has been irrelevant from the past, and even after she suddenly changed to a different person, she has never been picky about things or harassing her with trivial matters.

However, these days, Hilise had an atmosphere that was difficult to reach, so she was never easy to deal with.

But with that said, when asked if May was ever threatened or scared since her first day, she didn’t feel that way. As a result, May also did not feel as much discomfort as she thought from living alone with Hilise.

So, what’s the big deal?

She was rather comfortable without having to do other chores in the mansion during isolation.

Though that doesn’t mean that Hilise was attended by her maids for all her personal affairs like Gabrielle.

In the first place, Hilise was May’s master, and she wouldn’t call her until it was absolutely necessary. So, she was only doing a minimal part of her essential job. She spends free time without doing enough so the day seems long.

In addition, while she was stuck inside the wall and stayed on the fourth floor, she was allowed to use the rooms and bathrooms that were significantly more luxurious than the accommodations usually provided to employees.

Hilise was not particularly interested in May’s life.

So, she picked one of the empty rooms and was able to sleep in a soft, warm bed that would melt her whole body every day.

She also took a bubble-filled bath that she couldn’t normally dream of, filled with water in a large bathtub furnished in a gorgeous bathroom, and she also used expensive perfumes and oils.

During her free time, she entered a room that kept Gabrielle’s new dresses and trinkets, and while she looked around, she had secretly worn them.

She was obviously careful not to leave any mark as Gabrielle would later fire her if she knew about it.

She had three meals a day, and the food that was brought in every meal was better than what she would have normally.

Though, there was a difference between the dishes prepared for Hilise and for May.

She was able to eat a better quality meal than before because the kitchen employees felt poorly for May and took care of her. In addition, the high-quality dishes and desserts that Hilise occasionally left out became May’s share.

As a result, May’s skin began to glow.

For some reason, this doesn’t feel like detainment. She felt like she was on vacation.

‘…Detainment life, is it worth it?’

She had lived a life that would be considered heaven for three days.

May, who was lying on top of her pillows stuffed feathers and enjoying the luxury, stood up. Her gaze turned to the clock on the side table.

Soon, it was time for dinner to be served.

May procrastinated a little more, but she woke up. As she opened the door and stepped out of her room, the quiet corridor greeted her.

Hilise was still quiet today.

Every time May observed, she was having a quiet day without any incidents.

Whenever May sees Hilise now, she is still very surprised.

Hilise, who used to be so timid and weak that she would always get out of Diego and Ricardo’s sight and tremble from everything, has now changed this much. Perhaps because the power that was not of this world was embedded in her body, it might be natural for her personality to change a little.

May turned around after being served dinner through a crack in the wall made by Diego, as she did in the last three days.

Knock, knock.

“Lady, here’s your meal.”

She arrived at Hilise’s room and knocked on the door, but she did not hear an answer.

Knock, knock.

“Lady.”

Again, silence.

“Shall I leave it at the door?”

May stood at the quiet door and tilted her head. ‘Is she sleeping?’

Still, it was impossible for her to open the door at will without her Master’s command.

Technically, she could. Though she may not know if she had received permission in advance, she had never received such instructions from Hilise until now.

She went through a series of events in a short period of time, and now May was very careful not to cross the line when dealing with Hilise.

Even now, she did not want to be condemned for making Hilise uncomfortable because she was doing something useless.

“I’ll leave it at the door, Lady Hilise.”

May eventually left the tray in front of the door and stepped back. She can reheat it if it gets cold.

May, holding her tray with the food prepared for her, humming a small hum. The delicious smell oozing aroused her appetite.

May wouldn’t realize, of course, that there was no one in the room that she just turned around from.

Rewinding back around thirty minutes before May knocked on Hilise’s door.

Tick. Tick.

“…”

Even in the dark, the eyes shining brightly stared at the watch.

Soon, it would be time for Kalykia’s banquet to begin.

Just as Gabrielle grew up receiving the treatment of a Princess in Inoaden, there was also a princess in Kalykia, the family’s forbidden jade leaf.

Today’s banquet was her birthday party.

It was Gabrielle who originally decided to attend, but Diego couldn’t allow her to go out at this time. That said, he wouldn’t want to send Ricardo with a scar on his face to stimulate people’s useless curiosity.

So, Diego was the only one who attended today’s Kalykia’s banquet in the name of Inoaden.

The summer clan, Kalykia, was the first of the four families.

It was said that when men and women who inherited the ancient blood from ancient times were joined together, there would be a higher probability that a child with a strong ability would be born. For that reason, among the four major families, there was a place that preferred inbred marriage at all costs for the purity of strength.

That was Kalykia.

Thus, it was true that a person with a surprisingly powerful ability appeared in the lineage of Kalykia, which had been passed down for many years.

However, they were all short-lived, not a single person was able to live long enough. In addition, the worst side effects of inbreeding were also revealed.

In Kalykia, they were no longer able to produce a child with abilities.

For that reason, Kalykia, which has been in decline for several generations, now has the smallest position of the four families.

Though, no matter how severely the power has depleted, the fact that they were descendants of ancient blood did not disappear.

So, even as Inoaden, he couldn’t help but offer their faces.

For that reason, it would have been just enough to send Gabrielle, but it was obvious that Diego would be anxious to put her out of there with her light mouth. It will also be necessary to look directly at the reactions of the Parvenons, who learned about Hilise’s awakening.

In the end, Hilise was convinced that Diego would have attended Kalykia’s banquet himself.

That has always been the case in her past lives, so there would be no changes this time, unless there was anything special.

And she was right.

Diego was on his way to Kalykia to prevent the Parvenons from spreading unacceptable rumors at the banquet.

Hilise also finally woke up from her bed and walked to the window.

Kiiiik!

Without hesitation, her hand pulled open her window. Instead of the outside landscape, a wall made by Diego was reflected in the view.

Hilise reached her hand out.

Pazzak!

Before long, the wall began to crumble from the area where her hand reached. The fragments quickly turned into petals and piled up on the window sill. A fragrant rose bloomed from the ground she stood on.

The wall that was blocking her sight shattered, and the light leaked through the gap dazzling. Hilise frowned involuntarily.

Hwaah!

The sunset was in full swing outside.

The wind that swam through the scarlet from the landscape rushed into the room.

Petals that were swept and piled up on the window sill flew away. Some of them went outside and fluttered into the sunset sky.

In the distant sight, Hilise climbed onto the window sill.

Her long hair, with her petals, shook with the hem of her white pajamas. Her movement was so quiet that no one noticed after she broke the wall.

No one was spying outside the window.

It may have been because she had been so quiet for the last three days, that no one seemed to have imagined that Hilise would break the wall and get out of her room.

She could say that in terms of her sheer power, she still lacked compared to Diego. However, she was still able to use her abilities like someone who mastered them, beyond belief that she had just awakened.

It was, of course, because of her experiences in her past lives.

Taah!

Hilise jumped out of the window while Diego and other people in the house were vigilant.

She was living on the fourth floor of the building, but with her power, she was able to land safely on the floor without any difficulty.

Hilise stepped over, and roses were laid soft on the ground.

Her final destination today was Kalykia, but before that, she had a place to stop by.

Today is the birthday of Violetta, Princess of Kalykia.

So, she must prepare a gift.
