【084】
“Ow! Why are you hitting me!”
“You.”
“What!”
When I glared back defiantly, Luarel slowly pointed toward the bathroom.
“You need to turn off the faucet before you leave.”
“…Oh.”
Right.
Realizing my mistake, I scurried over and turned off the faucet.
As I left the room, Luarel never once took her eyes off me.
“Miss?”
“Lina!”
“Is something the matter?”
Finding Lina rubbing her sleepy eyes, I buried my face in her skirt and exhaled a long, relieved sigh.
And only then did I suddenly realize—
‘I didn’t stammer just now, did I?’
* * *
The next morning.
The moment I opened my eyes, I was bursting with the urge to tell everyone about what I’d discovered.
Just as I was about to kick off my blanket and get up—
Spirit King Alliance Quest!
Unable to call Luarel by her name,
all the Spirit Kings who entered the room have assigned you a task.
✔
Reveal the true identity of ‘Luarel Fasayen’
Reward upon success
★Good Job★ 2 stamps
Time limit
None
A Quest!
And since it’s an Alliance Quest, the stamp count is even higher!
I’d been feeling a bit discouraged after failing a Quest before, but this time I absolutely have to succeed.
Plus, there’s no penalty and no time limit—how amazing is that?
‘If I complete this along with the Quest to call him Dad, that’s four stamps total!’
Since I already have six stamps on my stamp card….
‘If I collect them all, can I make a contract with another Spirit King?!’
Thrilled, I threw my arms up energetically and did a forward roll on the bed.
“Woohoo!”
“Squeak!”
Feeling slightly dizzy, I sprawled out like a starfish, and Podong came trotting over with an invitation card as large as his own body in his mouth.
“What is this?”
“Huh?”
“Angela sent it, didn’t she?”
When I opened the adorable yellow envelope, a sweet honey fragrance wafted out.
Enchanted by the scent, I sniffed eagerly and read the invitation—surprisingly, it was asking me to attend a tea party.
At Superti’s.
Well, I didn’t particularly want to invite you, but there’s one seat left.
It’s a tea party for the Social Club that my friends and I attend, and I’m giving you the honor of being able to come.
The time is 2 PM.
Don’t be late!
It was so typical of Angela—stubborn and prim about every little detail.
‘And the tea party venue is… the Summer Rose Garden at the Fasayen Mansion!’
Since there are no classes today, I honestly want to go, but then when would I meet Elzen?
As I was pondering this, someone knocked on the door.
“Can I come in?”
“Joy!”
“Elzen said to gather separately tonight. The place is the Admiral’s Sponsorship. The time is 11 PM.”
Joy whispered rapidly into my ear and then vanished somewhere else in a flash.
No wonder he’s a half-elf—he makes no sound and moves incredibly fast!
‘So I can meet my older brothers tonight… I should go to the tea party!’
Angela had boasted so much about all the delicious food that my heart raced with anticipation.
‘She even said there would be rose jam cookies!’
* * *
“Oh my, Miss. You’re so adorable!”
“Really?”
“Yes! Miss Superti is the strongest in the world! The greatest in the universe! Oh my, how can you be so lovely…!”
For the outdoor tea party, Lina had prepared a bonnet for me.
Once I put on the bonnet adorned with lace and flowers and tied a ribbon beneath my chin to keep it from flying away, a perfect sun shade was complete.
“Then, let’s go!”
What kind of sisters would Angela’s friends be?
Were they all very close with Angela?
I was full of curiosity.
So when I arrived at the tea party venue, I couldn’t believe my eyes.
What on earth was all this!
[The Earth Spirit King ‘■’ clicks his tongue.]
[It’s complete chaos.]
The rose jam cookies that Angela had so often boasted about were crushed beneath a heel, crumbled into pieces.
Witnessing the sad sight of ants already swarming over them, I simply collapsed onto the spot.
“An… my cookies….”
But I couldn’t even finish paying my respects to the rose jam cookies.
“Pitiful because you didn’t receive Mother’s love? We’re exactly the same! How dare you compare me to someone like you? I am Angela Fasayen!”
Her bonnet tumbled across the grass, and the dress made from expensive fabric was now completely ruined.
Her hair, always arranged so meticulously, was now a tangled mess as Angela shrieked.
And it was Luarel who had grabbed her by the hair?
“You don’t even know if you’re real or fake! You! If it turns out you’re a commoner, I’ll kill you!!”
Angela, furious as a tiger, bellowed at the top of her lungs.
Angela’s friends stood frozen in shock at the corner, unsure what to do, while Luarel twisted her face in fury and struggled to break free.
“Let go! I said let go!!”
“Ha, is your stutter an act too? I know everything. How did you even find out about a party you weren’t invited to? It’s disgusting!”
“Let go, I said!”
“Kyaaah!”
Thud!
Luarel kicked Angela.
Angela flew backward and crumpled to the ground, but in that brief moment, I caught a glimpse beneath her skirt.
‘Her legs… they were as thick as the Admiral’s…?’
Did I see that wrong?
They were also quite hairy.
They definitely didn’t look like Luarel’s legs. What was that?
What’s going on?
That’s when it happened.
“Mother!”
Angela, her back against the fallen table and gasping for breath, called out to someone in a loud voice.
At the same time, I turned around, and my goodness.
‘Isn’t that Cecilia?!’
The aunt I’d searched for so desperately without even catching a glimpse of had appeared.
She wore a long, pitch-black dress, her teal hair cascading loose.
Something about it seemed odd to me—it didn’t look like the usual Cecilia at all.
“Mother! Look at her. Do you know what she said to me…!”
“Oh dear, you’re hurt.”
“…Mother?”
But what is this?
Cecilia didn’t go to Angela.
She didn’t even glance in Angela’s direction.
“Are you alright, Luarel? You should get treatment right away so it doesn’t scar.”
My goodness…!
Shocked, I opened my eyes wide and exhaled a hot breath.
She’s the mother! She’s the mother!
But how could she go to Luarel?
When Angela is lying there like that…!
“I’m f-fine. My hair got pulled a bit, but…”
“Why were you fighting?”
“I… I don’t know. Angela suddenly got angry, and I just wanted us to get along…”
I wanted to help Angela, but since I hadn’t seen the situation from the beginning, I had nothing to say.
Angela’s friends still trembled, unable to utter a word.
Frustrated, I stepped forward.
“Tsk, how undignified.”
Cecilia clicked her tongue as she looked at Angela.
In that moment, I saw it.
My aunt’s shadow rippling and bulging upward.
And despite her cold tone… her fists were clenched so tightly that the tendons stood out.
Even to someone as clueless as me, it was a strange sight.
‘She doesn’t mean it. She’s forcing herself to say something she doesn’t want to say.’
Soon after, Cecilia took only Luarel and left.
Angela’s friends sensed the atmosphere and slipped away one by one, leaving only the two of us.
I walked softly toward Angela.
Angela, her face contorted as she held back tears and gasped for breath, averted her gaze from me.
Yet she didn’t bow her head.
She held it high, more rigidly than ever.
I wrapped my arms around Angela tightly.
“What?! Get away!”
“I’m going to hold you.”
As expected, Angela snapped at me.
Since I knew she wouldn’t say “thank you,” I didn’t flinch or pull back—I just held her tighter.
Then Angela struggled to push me away and cried out loudly.
“How dare you pity me?! You don’t even have a mother!”
“Yeah, I don’t have a mother. But I have family. Angela is my family too.”
“…!”
“No matter what Angela says, it won’t change anything. I’ve decided to hold Angela.”
