When Dr. Fabre awoke, he was in a completely unfamiliar place, and beside his bed sat some people he didn't know at all. ★ Fiction Rankings m★≧≯≯

"Hello, first meeting, Dr. Fabre. It's rude to bring you here like this. I have punished my retainers to atone for my mistakes. Jadwija saluted slowly, and behind her two tower-like men were kneeling on the ground—Miłosz and Lukash who had knocked Dr. Fabre unconscious. Although they were punished, the two did not complain. This side is a retainer, unlike the servants in the East, the relationship between the lord and the retainer in the West is strictly observed, and the subordination relationship is unbreakable unless one party breaks the contract.

Miłosz and Lukash did not comply with Yadwiga's request to bring in Dr. Fabre, so they had no objection to the punishment.

"Retainers?!" Dr. Fabre sat up, still sore, but at least able to get out of bed. He couldn't help but look at the little girl in her early twenties in front of him, obviously much younger than himself, but she was the head of a certain nobleman!? After all, retainers don't have such respect for their own family's heirs.

Fabre asked suspiciously, "Are you?" He didn't remember that there was a nobleman in Novgorod who was headed by a young girl, and that they were not dressed like Rus' but like Raustins in the West.

"It's just people from the West looking for medicine." Yadwiga did not reveal her identity, in fact, no one in Novgorod knew their details except for the Noble Council, after all, an alliance with the Orthodox Rus' was a symbol of Polish betrayal. It was a declaration of war against the Holy Roman Empire! And Yadwigga didn't want to risk being exposed to tell Dr. Fabre where she came from.

Sure enough! Dr. Fabre sighed helplessly, so that there was nothing else to find him but to seek medical treatment. This is the reason why he chose to live in seclusion here, although the perennial war has always put this place in danger, but it does make it much less people looking for him, plus he is rumored to be wanted by the Holy See, so he has been able to escape safely in recent years. But now, it seems, trouble has come again.

But he didn't have a choice! Looking at the fierce eyes of the two burly men, a chill suddenly rushed up from his feet to his head.

······

Constantine walked alone in the empty hall, the mansion of the previous Grand Duke, but with the death of the Grand Duke, it became the property of the Novgorod Public. Located in the heart of the city, but magically unaffected by the hustle and bustle of the city.

The quiet corridor was empty, and Constance Dante could only wander around boredly, after all, everyone was around Yadwiga. But he stopped suddenly, for as he passed through a door, Consei-Dante seemed to see something. The door on the side of the corridor did not close, and it was because of this that Constance Dante saw the little girl who was looking intently at a thick book.

I saw that Bonifazia was sitting alone on the high book staircase, not afraid of such heights at all, but focused on the ancient books in his hands, although few people could read such books.

Although Constance Dante had also observed the girl beside his mother during the trip, Bonifazia was a well-behaved little girl in normal times, but it was the first time Constance Dante had seen such a focused and mature appearance.

This is the former Grand Duke's study, and it seems that the Grand Duke is also a fellow who loves to read, Cons Dante can't help but open his jaw when he looks at those tall bookshelves!

"It's still an amazing study, it's the size of a library!" Cons Dante subconsciously sighed.

Consei-Dante's exclamations caught the attention of Bonifazia, who was immersed in the sea of books.

"Ahh The book in the hand of the little girl, who was subconsciously startled, fell to the ground without hand.

"Monsieur Constance Dante!"

The surprised girl's voice trembled a little, and it seemed that her complex emotions had become less intimate than before, but a little rusty and timid. Obviously, when Bonifazia knew that Consy Dante was a Herodian, she was very excited and said that she had agreed with Considine to teach her Herod. But now it's a little different.

"Your Royal Highness! It is very difficult for one to learn Herod in this way. Constance Dante picked up the book that Bonifazia had read on the floor and said in harmony. It was an anthology of Aristophanes, the father of comedy, and looking at the girl's childish words written on it in Juan Xiu's words, Constance Dante knew that the girl was trying to teach herself by herself. It's just that such a book is too difficult for a beginner.

Looking at Constance Dante's gentle appearance, Bonifazia also seemed to be a little stunned, indeed she had not forgotten the previous agreement with this gentle big brother, but every time she saw that soft face, the girl would always think of [Nidhogg]'s hideous posture!

She couldn't believe it either, but that's what it was.

And Constance Dante also seemed to sense the fear in the little girl's eyes, after all, such a child still could not hide himself. He didn't know why, but the kid was scared of himself.

[Do you feel it?] This is how you end, not understood, not respected, this is the monster! Suddenly. A shrill voice rang out in Consit's mind, shaking his whole body, and the intense grief and indignation rushed over his head, but he quickly regained his composure. This kind of thing, which seems to be both hallucinatory and real, has been experienced so much that it borders on numbness.

In Bonifazia's eyes, Constance Dante's strange demeanor just now also made her even more frightened. That night, the demonic figure lingered in the girl's heart.

"Do you need me to bring this book with you?" Cons, Dante, however, did not see the resistance in the girl's eyes because of his confusion, and walked straight to the ladder.

"No······ No! And the frightened Bonifazia screamed, but subconsciously leaned back, and suddenly lost her balance and fell down the high ladder! If such a height falls, it will be fatal for such a young girl!

It's over······ I don't want it! At that moment, Bonifazia's mind went blank, but she knew that she would die this time, and Bonifazia closed her eyes.

But he heard hurried footsteps from below!

Seeing the girl fall from the elevated road, Constance Dante rushed forward without thinking about it, there is only one chance, but at such a height, can Constance Dante really be able to catch Bonifazia? (To be continued.) )8
