# 60 - 60
* * *
After my conversation with Lycian ended.
I was about to go back to my room and wait for the big conference to start, but I changed my destination after hearing unexpected news from the butler's assistant.
“Miss, you should wear a cloak.”
Adele, who paused for a moment, hastily wrapped a fur coat around me.
“But there is no wind coming in here?”
“Still.”
I thought it was overprotective, but I felt good knowing that Adel cared so much about me.
I turned my gaze away from Adel, who was looking to see if there was anything else to wrap around me, and spoke.
"fair."
“Yes, miss?”
“Since you entered the main castle, have you ever seen such a scene before?”
Adel turned her gaze to where my eyes were going.
She answered in a confident voice.
“No, Miss Tulia. This is the first time I have seen such a scene in my life.”
“You thought so, didn't you?”
Even Adel, who had always been calm and warm since she became the head maid, was looking ahead with a somewhat disgusted expression.
I raised my eyebrows slightly.
“Who would have expected that such chaos would break out in the main castle of the Great Grand Duke’s House?”
I never would have imagined that I would witness this in real time.
I involuntarily tried to cross my arms, but I realized that my arm was not completely healed yet, so I lowered it obediently.
“Miss, your skin doesn't look good.”
Adele supported me.
I grabbed a server who was trying to rush past us and asked him to bring me a chair.
“Please have a seat.”
“In the corridor?”
“Why does this matter?”
“Well, my health is the most important thing.”
Adel let out a light laugh.
"naturally."
I laughed with her and then looked forward again.
“This is really like watching a movie.”
Of course, what was unfolding before my eyes was not a screen displaying the names of the participants, but rather the facade of someone's bedroom.
The main castle was very impressive in size.
The aisle alone was wide enough to move a six-person bed without tilting it.
Dark-colored carpets are spread on the floor, creating warmth and a luxurious atmosphere at the same time.
This place, which has an interior design that resembles a modern luxury hotel at first glance.
It was right in front of Leon Fraser's bedroom.
“Amazingly loud.”
I muttered lightly.
It was an unimaginable noise under normal circumstances.
Servants, especially servants of high-ranking noble families, are educated, starting from their first steps when entering the service.
To be agile and agile.
So that almost no sound is produced.
Move quickly, but do not run unless absolutely necessary.
Shouldn't it be trivial?
“Looking at it this way, it seems similar to the movement technique that nobles learn.”
Well, nobles believe that the world around them should be noble to suit their “status.”
The more impudently the castle's maids and servants behave, the more it indicates that they belong to a family without social status.
Is this the reason?
The servants of the main castle were always highly efficient.
They were polite and kind, yet they were busy accomplishing their assigned tasks.
Thanks to this, unless there was a major problem, this corner of the main castle was so quiet and peaceful that you could count the specks of golden dust in the air.
“How could you turn my son into a semi-disabled person!”
“Even if it is the young master of the House of Marquis, you have crossed the line!”
“Our baby can't walk now and is half crazy!”
It's a market.
Electronic market.
“He must have been beaten pretty badly that day.”
Honestly, I couldn't see a lot of things with my own eyes.
When my body was pierced by multiple arrowheads and I felt like I was dying from pain, would I have noticed whether those bastards who were beaten by Leon Fraser lived or died?
Of course, from their parents' perspective, it would be like a momentous event that could turn heaven and earth upside down.
“Miss, it would not be good for you to stay here any longer.”
“Yes yes.”
The trio consisting of Adil, the butler's assistant, and the personal doctor were cleverly protecting my body.
The nobles also strongly demanded immediate apologies and explanations from Leon Fraser.
But if they happen to look at me, they will definitely rush over to confront me.
“That sounds crazy. Right, I shouldn't be drawn into this.”
However, since he got into that state to protect me, I wanted to at least see his face to check on his condition.
I cast a disdainful look at the nobles who were still protesting loudly.
The scene of them screaming at Leon Fraser, calling him violent and demanding that he apologize, was ridiculous.
Do they know, but pretend not to know, that their sons shot arrows at me first and enjoyed it?
Or do they really not know?
Whether it's the first or the second, I won't let it go unnoticed.
First, I will address the big conference that will be held soon.
* * *
My firm determination was instantaneous.
“Miss, before going to the grand conference hall, you should drink another bowl of herbal medicine, no, two more bowls.”
Before I could deal with the big conference, I was about to be treated first.
Once back in my room, I had to deal with a worried personal physician.
“...I don't feel dizzy anymore. And we don't have time, do we?”
“I have already prepared everything…”
“…”
“Oh, bitterness.”
However, when she swallowed it in one go, the personal doctor let out a sigh of relief.
It was because I felt so dizzy in front of my room just fifteen minutes ago.
I didn't know how pale I had become, but the three of them were very upset.
“Fortunately, the medicinal materials you have, Miss, are of the highest grade, difficult for even the Imperial Palace to obtain.”
“Didn’t you sell them all to Young Master Leon Fraser that day, miss?”
“I have set aside some of them for emergency situations in case there is any emergency.”
My eyebrows twitched upon hearing the personal doctor's words.
But Adil and the butler kept praising me, saying that I was really wise.
Oh, my God!
“Miss, can you move?”
"I'm fine. I just swayed for a moment."
“However, I was really surprised.”
Adel spoke with a serious face as she wiped my forehead and cheeks.
"However, compared to Leon Fraser, this is nothing. He has completely fainted and can't even get up."
“Young Master Leon has a stronger body than you, Miss.”
“That's right. You two have different levels of stamina from the beginning.”
“Since Miss Tulia is more sensitive, we should take better care of you. Since you sold those medicinal herbs to the young master, he will recover quickly after only a day or two of feeding.”
I couldn't help but laugh at the words of the three who were so concerned for my safety with such favoritism.
clink!
clink!
clink!
Is this just my imagination?
I seem to be getting the coins much faster than I did when I was recovering from a cold last time.
Maybe the faster Tullia recovers after his serious injury, the faster he can get the coins?
I thought about checking my status window, but when I saw the three of them discussing seriously while looking at me, that desire quickly faded.
I will check it later.
My body already felt heavy, like a piece of cotton soaked in water.
Adel personally fed me rice porridge made by grinding nuts and boiling them well with the grains, spoon by spoon.
When I was barely half done with the bowl.
Knock knock.
“Miss Tulia, I have come to accompany you.”
The Lycian knight himself came to fetch me.
“To the grand conference hall, right?”
“Yes, miss.”
I got up from my seat immediately.
Adil and the butler quickly came to my aid, and the personal doctor handed me another bitter herbal medicine, saying it was a tonic to increase my energy, albeit briefly.
I didn't really want to drink it.
But now that was just before entering the battlefield.
I closed my eyes tightly and swallowed the herbal medicine in one go.
"good."
Let's go.
Lycian sending a knight was a very generous gesture.
“This is very unfair!”
“Our son is permanently disabled, Viscount Lelius!”
"His wrist band was torn, his wrist band was torn! Our poor dear son was told he would never be able to hold a sword or a bow again for the rest of his life!"
"Count Nigella Fraser! Isn't this excessive violence based on social status!"
“Oh my God, it's really loud.”
Screams and anger explode like crazy.
This place was exactly a hundred times noisier than the place in front of Leon Fraser's bedroom.
It was in front of the large conference hall.
