The Reincarnated Young Girl Is Adored by the Spirits She Helped in Her Previous Life
That night, I sleep with Sara, Sui, and Loa.
Of course, Sara has her own room, but until she gets used to it, we decided to sleep together.
Tonight, Daru sleeps at our feet, Kolko is by the window, and Carro is on the headboard.
“Luria~. I want you to hug me tightly,” Sui says. “Ryaa~.”
“What’s wrong? Sui-chan, Loa, why are you rubbing your heads like that?”
Once we get under the covers, Sui and Loa snuggle up to me, seeking affection.
I hug Sui’s head tightly and also embrace Loa.
“Good girl, good girl.”
Sara also strokes Sui and Loa.
“Since you didn’t play with me much, Sui feels lonely,” says Sui. “I was busy studying etiquette,” replies Sara. “It’s boring,” says Sui.
Sui had been watching the etiquette lessons near me, but it seems she was bored.
“Ryumuryamu.” “Loa, were you lonely too?”
Loa was chewing on my sleeve.
“I’ll endure until I meet His Majesty.” “Mu~. Sui will beat up that so-called ‘His Majesty’!” “Ryam?”
“No, you can’t. He’s your father’s father, you know?” “Mu~…”
Both Sui and Loa look very sleepy.
“Luria-chan, I heard that the King is scary.” “From Marion?” “No, from Baron-sama.”
Sara calls her biological father “Baron-sama.” She probably wasn’t allowed to call him “father.”
“What did he say?” That Baron, who tormented Sara and cursed Marion, is enough for me.
“Well, he said he’s a king with no blood or tears, a cruel and heartless king.” “Ho, I see.” “……Is he a scary person? But Sui is strong, so I’m not scared.”
Half-asleep, Sui says this and wiggles her tail. Loa had already fallen asleep, breathing softly while still holding onto my sleeve.
“Even the great nobles and royals will suffer if they go against him.” “…Does that include Luria? Are you okay?” “I’m a grandchild, so… am I royal?”
I remember hearing that my father had fallen to a lower status.
But both my father and my brother, along with my sister and I, have quite high ranks in the line of succession. It’s a complicated issue.
“I heard the King doesn’t forgive even family members.” Sara seems quite knowledgeable. The Baron must have spoken about the king frequently.
“Mu~. Still, Sui will… somehow handle it… zzz…”
While talking, Sui fell asleep.
As I gently stroked her, I asked, “What did the rebellious nobles who were punished do?”
“They say they made beastmen into slaves? He said they were punished because they lacked common sense.” “…Hmm? Did he say anything else?”
The mood had started to shift a bit.
“Well, he said that commoners and nobles are different, but they punish nobles like they would commoners.” “So that’s why he’s cruel?” “The Baron-sama said that. He said it’s inhumane to hang people for something as trivial as killing peasants for fun.”
“…I don’t think that’s really inhumane.”
When I said that, Sara nodded. Sui was completely asleep. Her sleeping face was so cute, so Sara and I gently petted her head.
“My mom said that if the King weren’t there, it might have been easier for me to be accepted.” “Do you mean that you’ll inherit the title of Baron?” “Yes.”
As for me, the reason Sara will go to the royal palace is to inherit the baron title.
“He doesn’t look that scary, does he?” “I don’t know. But it’s certain that he’s strict.”
I guess I can’t be too careless, but I don’t need to be overly scared.
“Luria-chan, are you okay? Is it hard for you?” “Hmm? The etiquette lessons?” “Yes. Your aunt is strict too…” “Really? I don’t think she’s that strict.”
I feel like I get praised more often.
“Also, it’s kind of fun.” “Is that so?” “Yeah! Learning new things is fun.”
“I see, Luria-chan, you’re amazing.”
While talking about that, Sara and I fell asleep.
