“Sirius, do you hear voices?”
"Yes."
“Do you understand what they are saying too?”
If you know what they're talking about, you can prepare for it.
I have to understand how conversations go in high society and get a sense of the atmosphere.
Although I did not learn the conversational style of high society, the style of the priests I learned in the temple is not bad.
'Even arrogant girls have a use.'
Who is the most numerous among the priests?
There are many noble young women who are expelled from their families.
It doesn't change just because you wear a priest's uniform.
Even though they don't speak a fancy language like the language of high society, the aggressiveness of high society is there as it is.
When she had to listen to it daily, every day seemed to bring her closer to the ruler.
Whether she becomes short-lived due to her inability to hold back her anger, or she has built such a solid foundation that she cannot be affected by a few words, the result is today's Deyaren.
These adversities were the basis for the formation of today's Diyarin.
Truly, the will of the ruler is deep and mysterious.
'High society conversations may differ only in their topics.'
Dayarin expected that the manner of conversation would not be significantly different.
Once she listens and understands the topics being raised, she can prepare how to deal with them in advance.
Then Sirius can be trained to do so.
'Shouldn't 'Never' also be wonderfully useful?'
Sirius is a smart pup who knows his way around things.
"It varies depending on the sound. There are multiple distances."
Sirius focused on Dearyn's instructions for a while and then shook his head.
The sounds heard here were too many. It wasn't just a few people in the palace talking.
The sounds were not separated the way natural sounds are.
Voices are not just sounds that must be heard, the content of speech must also be understood, which makes it more difficult.
“Don't try to listen to sounds that are too far away, but what sounds are closer?”
“This building.”
It seems that people stay in the rooms instead of going to parties.
It was said that the Royal Palace was a constant event every day, whether it was night parties, betting gatherings, or debating meetings.
The only goal of whoever gets a room in the palace is:
“Social relations.”
To form good relationships with people, you must eventually see them regularly and socialize with them.
Consequently, there was rarely anyone left in the room alone.
“What are they saying?”
“They say, ‘Look at this crinkle lace, it's annoying.'”
“…Ah? Ah…Ah…”
These were words that clearly expressed noble heritage.
Yes, real rich people bother even with small details like wrinkles in lace.
“What next?”
“They say, ‘If you're upset, just take it off. Why wear it and be upset?'”
"Hmm. There are normal people too. So what?"
“They say, ‘If you take it off, you can't handle it.'”
“…?”
Does it mean that the person who takes off his clothes will start to go berserk like Ceres?
Because Deyarin couldn't convey the style accurately, I felt a little confused when I heard it.
It seemed like she had to listen more to understand the details.
Sirius continued to relay the speech based on Dearyn's signal.
While Dearyn was still confused, she said a few sentences.
“They sigh.”
"…What?"
“They say, ‘A new employee came in today, right?’”
Dearyn's eyes lit up.
New employee? This definitely refers to Ceres and her, right?
Coincidentally, she happened to start listening and they talked about topics related to her and Sirius.
Therefore, Dearyn completely forgot the existence of the word “sigh” that Sirius had mentioned earlier.
“What next?”
“They say, ‘We checked the maids, and without a doubt they are just servants.’”
“Those… how dare they call us that!”
It wasn't just an insult, it made her even more angry.
Couldn't they at least be talking about cat hair or horse hair instead of dog hair?
They couldn't have figured out that our crazy dog was a dog hair type, could they?
M.M.: I mean like a dog that keeps its hair at home without any use and only problems
It sparked a lot of misunderstanding, and Deyarin began to tremble with anger.
Sirius, not knowing why, tried to calm her down.
“What did they say then?”
“They said, ‘But they look balanced.’”
"Hmm, of course, that's true. What's next?"
“They said, ‘The guy has black hair, and I adore black hair.’”
“…Hmm, yes. What next?”
There seems to be something wrong with this dialogue.
Unfortunately, Deyarin was also not familiar enough with the real adult world.
Although she heard a lot of things from here and there, she didn't know how conversations between adults actually went.
This is the harsh reality in the field.
The knowledge that Dyaren possesses, which is closer to abstract ideas, cannot be used directly in reality.
So, she couldn't imagine the situation clearly at such moments.
“They said, ‘I'll have it soon.'”
Those frank words from Sirius' mouth were shocking.
“Ah, ah, ahhh!”
All those previous words were part of this kind of conversation!
Dayaren, who was completely lazy in thinking, suddenly realized in a big way.
The words seemed unclear due to Sirius's calm and beautiful tone which made it more difficult to understand the meaning of the words.
'Serious style for adults'
Sirius recited the speech in a sacred way, as if he were reading from a religious book, as he conveyed the adult talk that was like hell:
“‘Black hair looks especially delicious in bed……’”
"No! Stop! Wait! Stop!"
Urgently, Dearyn covered Sirius's ears with her hand.
This was not something a puppy should hear.
Of course, she couldn't listen clearly either.
Dearyn learned that panic can make the world go round.
And now, it was just like that.
‘Wow, the royal palace is a scary place……’
Her heart was beating fast.
The royal palace was a dangerous place.
It was a place where brutal people of power gathered in a state of sexual turmoil, making it unbearable for innocent and pure souls. He posed a great threat to Sirius, who was beautiful and well-groomed.
How will our puppy fit in here?
Deyarin felt lost and began to see everything before her eyes as dark.
How can her pure and good puppy be transformed into a wonderful noble?
“Dyaren.”
"……Yes."
“What does ‘communion’ mean?”
“…….”
…Oh, my God.
The apocalypse that was confined to the temple suddenly exploded before Dearyn's eyes.
The surrounding world was too black, corrupt, and chaotic for our innocent, crazy child to be unleashed into.
Her puppies were nothing but crazy, but they were evil.
Dayarin felt that the future was already shrouded in darkness.
‘How will I make our pure child survive as a great noble among these unjust humans?’
In order to shine among these oppressive humans, he had to be many times stronger than them.
Sparkling purity is quickly becoming tainted in this world, and this is not true purity.
Although the surrounding environment is polluted by corrupt things, the thing that cannot be polluted is pure truth. Like the moon that illuminates the black night, true purity remains radiant even in the darkest of circumstances.
But Ceres is still empty. If Sirius is taking in everything Deyarin has taught him like a sponge, the imagination of what he might become in the future is terrifying.
“…You don’t have to know that yet.”
Even when you don't have children, the desire to raise them comes from these feelings. Diaren, who had never experienced love or fatherhood, found herself feeling the heart of parents in advance.
"Yes."
Sirius answered as usual, kindly and calmly.
When he was told that he didn't need to know that, D'Arren was again alarmed by Sirius's unquestioning behaviour.
'Will my son be so simple and be considered a fool by others?'
Should I add some intensity to it?
“Dyaren.”
"Yes?"
“Why does a person scream even though he says he is fine?”
"What?"
“The woman keeps screaming, 'Good, good, there, more.'”
“Ah!”
Deyarin held her head, as if she wanted to faint.
“Stop listening, stop!”
Although that wouldn't stop the sound from coming through, Dearyn placed her hands over Sirius' ears.
“……I can hear them.”
“Try not to listen!”
The environment here is not suitable for education.
This place, so full of pleasure and lust, was too harsh to raise our son.
It would have been better if he grew up in a beautiful place, where he saw and heard only good things.
But Ceres was supposed to mingle and live in this place.
'Oh, it's terrible.'
It wasn't long ago that our child started learning how to speak the language of the people. He was supposed to learn beautiful words, and only listen to beautiful things. But instead, he had to listen to corrupt conversations and search for appropriate responses to such conversations.
The dream was for our son to be kind and warm, but that seems to be just a fantasy. He didn't even wish to be like the ideal nobles in the stories, even if he was like the nobles who roamed the neighborhoods and clashed with others, it would be better.
But simply closing the ears and not teaching him was not a solution.
Worse than turning Sirius into a pervert was being a loser who returned disappointed from wherever he went.
but.
‘Should I give him sex education too? truly? 'Am I serious?'
Not just sex education, but an analysis of the sexual meanings of vulgar talk among the nobility, sex education in great depth.
Deyarin raised her eyes to the sky and held back her tears.
What am I exactly?
Am I a priestess or a nanny?
Right now, I'm a dog owner.
