Chapter 111
“So you’re saying that Beatrice hasn’t been real all this time?”
“Yes, that’s right. The one who’s been pretending to be Beatrice all along is Gye Deok-ho here.”
At my words, the Count looked back and forth between Louis and Beatrice with a bewildered expression.
“I did hear rumors that Beatrice had gone mad, but I never imagined another person was inside her body…”
“There were rumors that I went mad?”
I gave her a brief explanation about that too. That Beatrice’s reputation had fallen quite a bit while Louis was inside her body.
“Sorry, Beatrice. I tried my best to prevent it, but it wasn’t easy…”
“I put in quite a bit of effort too.”
Louis crossed his arms with a disgruntled expression.
“Anyway, that’s why I defeated the black mage and returned your soul.”
“I see…”
Beatrice quietly looked down at her hands, then discovered calluses and tilted her head in confusion.
“But why do I have calluses on my hands…”
“Ah, that’s…”
I awkwardly rolled my eyes before confessing the truth.
“Louis reached the level of Sword Master using your body.”
“What?”
Beatrice’s eyes widened in an instant.
“Since Louis has left, you probably won’t be able to use aura anymore.”
“I, I see.”
Beatrice looked extremely confused.
Well, it wasn’t enough that some stranger had entered her body and caused chaos, but he’d also reached the level of Sword Master.
I would have felt the same way.
“What about Father? Does Father know about this too?”
“No, the Marquis doesn’t know. He just thinks you became a bit strange.”
“I see…”
“If you want, I can go explain it to the Marquis together with you.”
“No.”
Beatrice shook her head and then showed an elegant smile.
“I don’t want to worry Father.”
As expected of the female protagonist. She has a kind heart too.
“Could you keep it secret from Father that another person was inside my body?”
I nodded at Beatrice’s words.
Though I did feel a bit sorry that only the Marquis was unaware of this situation.
Well, anyway, the real Beatrice had returned, so wasn’t that enough?
“Then according to what you’re saying, Mr. Deok-ho isn’t from this world?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
It was Deok-ho, not Deok-ho, but close enough.
Suddenly, Beatrice’s eyes sparkled.
Louis seemed burdened by that gaze and turned his head toward the window.
“So there are other worlds besides the one I live in… How fascinating.”
Beatrice seemed to want to hear stories about that world.
“Mr. Deok-ho, if it’s alright, could you tell me about the world you came from sometime?”
“Sure, why not. It’s not a difficult request.”
When Louis nodded, Beatrice smiled shyly.
“But since Mr. Deok-ho isn’t from this world, what about his identity?”
“Ah.”
I hadn’t thought of that.
We needed to create an identity for Louis, but I didn’t have that kind of power.
Mine, Beatrice’s, and Louis’s gazes all turned toward the Count simultaneously. The Count blinked at the sudden attention.
“Count, if it’s alright, could you create an identity for Louis?”
“Well, buying an identity isn’t difficult, but…”
The Count cleared his throat, then lowered his head as if embarrassed and whispered.
“If you… call me that.”
“Pardon?”
“If you call me father, I’ll consider it.”
I was momentarily flustered.
The word “father” was something I’d never used even in my previous life.
Because I was an abandoned child in my previous life.
But the Count really seemed to want to become family with me.
I hesitated for a moment, then parted my lips.
“Dad?”
Then the Count coughed loudly! He looked at me with disbelieving eyes.
“Rene…”
The Count’s eyes reddened. I felt embarrassed for some reason and avoided his gaze.
“Yes, this father will arrange Deok-ho’s identity! Don’t worry!”
The Count thumped his chest, telling me to trust only him, and I smiled softly watching him.
Could the word “dad” really make him that happy?
“Then Beatrice, will you return to the Marquis’ mansion?”
The Count looked at Beatrice and asked.
Beatrice still seemed to have many stories she wanted to hear from me.
But since she had just awakened, it seemed better for her to return to the Marquis’ mansion first and receive medical attention.
“Beatrice. We can talk later, so how about returning to the Marquis’ mansion first? We need to check your physical condition too.”
“Okay, I’ll do that.”
Fortunately, Beatrice didn’t insist. She wasn’t the type of character to be stubborn anyway.
I called a maid and instructed her to prepare a carriage.
“By the way, Rene, what exactly is that egg?”
Beatrice pointed to the egg on the sofa and asked.
“Someone I love.”
“Huh?”
“I’ll explain this later too.”
When I said this with a smile, Beatrice tilted her head and said she understood.
“Well, I should head back now.”
The first to rise from her seat was the Mage Lord. The Mage Lord looked down at me quietly, then placed her hand on my head.
“Thank you for saving this world.”
Then she patted my head vigorously as if petting a dog.
“Everyone else is grateful too.”
The sensation wasn’t bad somehow, so I smiled shyly.
“Then rest well for a while.”
The Mage Lord left those words and disappeared with a poof through teleportation.
I was thinking, why is she telling me to rest? when a maid said the carriage was ready, so I went down to the first floor with Beatrice.
“Be careful going home, Beatrice.”
“Okay. I’ll come visit again.”
“Anytime.”
I smiled and hugged Beatrice.
After Beatrice left, I went up the stairs with Louis.
The Count, who had followed us, cleared his throat while looking at Louis and said.
“Deok-ho. I’ll give you one of my rooms, so stay there for the time being.”
The Count said this and gave Louis the guest room in the manor.
“Thanks. You look around my age too, so we can speak casually, right?”
You already are.
Louis put his arm around the Count’s shoulder as he spoke. That posture looked exactly like a delinquent extorting money, so I chuckled softly.
“Of, of course.”
Perhaps having seen Louis’s menacing face, the Count nodded awkwardly with a forced smile.
“Then Louis, please rest comfortably.”
I said goodbye to Louis and went to the drawing room. Then I returned to my room while holding the egg.
I quietly looked down at Kaisis’s egg and stroked it.
Kaisis, please wake up whenever you’re ready.
After holding Kaisis’s egg like that for a while, I fell asleep without realizing it. I must have been tired from experiencing so many things at once.
In my dream, I met Kaisis.
It was a vast flower garden, and Kaisis was sitting in the middle of it, weaving flowers.
“Kaisis, what are you doing?”
“I’m making a flower crown to give to Master.”
Kaisis said that and then seated me next to him.
I sat quietly in place, and Kaisis placed the flower crown he had made himself on my head.
“Did you cry a lot?”
“A little.”
“Don’t cry too much.”
It feels like my heart is breaking.
Kaisis said that while gently stroking my cheek.
I smiled and leaned my cheek into Kaisis’s hand.
Kaisis stroked my cheek endlessly like that, then soon pressed his forehead against mine and spoke in a whisper.
“We’ll be able to meet soon.”
“Yes, we’ll meet soon.”
I smiled with my forehead pressed against Kaisis’s. I was no longer afraid.
* * *
I mainly spent my days holding Kaisis’s egg.
I put it down only when I had no choice, like when washing or eating, but most of the time I carried the egg around like holding a child.
Kaisis’s egg was warm.
I believed without a doubt that Kaisis would hatch someday.
Because he said we’d meet soon.
Whenever I became anxious wondering what if Kaisis couldn’t wake up, I recalled the dream I had recently.
Kaisis definitely said we’d meet soon. So he would surely wake up.
* * *
Meanwhile, Louis obtained a new identity.
The identity the Count had procured for Louis was that of a mercenary, and Louis was extremely satisfied when he heard this.
“Mercenary is perfect for me.”
