Chapter 15: Fran and Remi
(Thanks to the reward of 'Heart Wanghai' children's shoes~)
(I'm back to school today, and I'm in the car until now, so I'll serve a shift first.) )
————————
"Big Brother ......"
Fran's eyes lit up next to him, and he looked at Arthur with no secret of his interest and affection.
She could feel that Arthur's body was almost exactly the same power as her, and this feeling of being from the same source made the second lady feel extremely cordial.
Coupled with the fact that Arthur is the 'big brother' who liberated himself from captivity, the combination of the two makes the second lady's favorability towards Arthur even higher.
Arthur in the form of a demon king turned his head and looked at Fran, and there was an unexpected trace of tenderness in his pupils, which should not have the slightest emotion.
Bounting down, he gently picked up the second lady, the magic sword in his hand disappeared, Arthur freed his hand, put his palm on Fran's head, and stroked her soft blonde hair slightly.
"Arthur!"
When Elquit saw this scene, he was a little worried.
Fran's destructive power, she had seen it just now, and now seeing Arthur holding this terrifying little girl in her arms, the princess immediately became worried, for fear that Arthur would be hurt by something.
Arthur turned his head and saw Elquit's worried expression, the corners of his mouth twitched a little stiffly, revealing an expression that seemed to be a smile.
The next moment, the form of silver-haired and blood-eyed eyes dissipated like smoke, and the familiar black-haired golden eyes reappeared in front of the princess.
Arthur, dressed in aristocratic attire, smiled at Elquit and stroked Fran's hair with his hand.
"Don't worry, princess, Fran won't hurt me, and she won't hurt me."
Perhaps because of the relationship between power and origin, Arthur can't see Fran's 'eyes', and on the contrary, Fran can't see his 'eyes', so Arthur is not worried about whether he will suddenly be accidentally turned into a mosaic by the little girl in his arms.
Hearing his words and seeing the confidence on Arthur's face, the princess breathed a sigh of relief and looked up and smiled.
"Thanks to you this time, Arthur~"
"Do you need to say thank you to me......"
Arthur chuckled, and was just about to say something to the princess when suddenly there were several sounds of breaking the air in the sky.
"Fran!"
An angry voice with a hint of anxiety came from behind Arthur, making the boy slightly stunned.
The second lady in her arms was surprised for a moment when she heard this voice, but she quickly shrank back in fear.
This action made Arthur frown slightly.
"Miss, Sakiya."
Arthur turned his head and saluted slightly to Remi and the head maid who were rushing in the sky.
"Fran!" Remi screamed and landed on the ground, came to Arthur's side, and saw Arthur holding his sister, and a look of annoyance flashed in her eyes.
But the next moment, the eldest lady found out that the person in front of her turned out to be her newly hired housekeeper today.
"A-Arthur? It's you, what the hell is going on? ”
"Hmm...... That's pretty much it. ”
"Oh...... Wait, you haven't said anything! ”
Nodding subconsciously, and when she reacted, Remi was suddenly annoyed and looked at Arthur through gritted teeth.
"Sister, you are not allowed to talk to your big brother like this."
"What, Fran you ......"
Remi looked at the second lady in Arthur's arms in surprise, and couldn't believe that her sister would talk to her like this.
"Second Miss." Sakiya saluted Fran and looked at Arthur and Elquit with some serious eyes.
"Fran likes big brothers, so even if it's a sister, you are not allowed to talk to big brother like that."
“…… Fran. ”
Remi looked at her sister with complicated eyes.
Because Fran can't control her powers, she often causes irreparable damage to things around her, and Remi locks her in the basement to prevent her from hurting others.
Now it seems that this decision was not so correct.
At least the sister who was originally dependent on her and was extremely close to her will refute her sister because of others at the moment.
The cruel truth made Remi a little unacceptable for a while.
"Miss, with all due respect, what you're doing is really not quite right."
"Shut up, we don't want you as an outsider to take care of our affairs!"
"Big brother is not an outsider!"
“……”
The scene was deadlocked for a while, and Sakuya next to him smiled bitterly, walked between the two and asked, "Arthur, what's going on tonight?" ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the tension between the two sisters was suddenly diverted a lot.
Attention was focused on Arthur, and everyone waited for his explanation.
Arthur shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the professor over there who had turned into a mosaic: "This guy has invaded the territory of the Red Devil Pavilion, and as a steward, I naturally need to be responsible for destroying it." ”
"That's it?" Remi and Sakiya face each other.
"Well, I accidentally destroyed the ground during the battle, and I happened to break the basement where the second lady was locked."
“……”
This is a bit too coincidental, such a big place, so far away, that just happened to break that small piece of basement with a sword?
The corners of Remi and Sakiya's mouths twitched, but they couldn't think of any reason to refute it, because Arthur was only the first day he came to the Red Devil Pavilion today, and he was not even unfamiliar with the various places in the Red Devil Pavilion, and it was even more impossible to say that he did it on purpose.
So they can only explain this by coincidence.
"So, what's going on with you guys?!"
Remi couldn't help it, and pointed at Arthur and Fran and said, she couldn't figure out why her sister was so close to Arthur.
It's just unbearable...... The eldest lady was inevitably jealous, obviously it was her sister's words.
"Well, it's probably a natural nature that is more compatible, right?" Arthur looked to the sky.
"Mm-hmm, that's right, Fran likes big brother so much." The second lady happily arched in Arthur's arms.
“……”
“……”
Sakuya and Remi are embarrassed.
"Miss~" Sakiya pulled Remi's clothes and quietly pointed at Arthur, "Miss, didn't you find out?" ”
"Huh?" Remi turned her head a little confused, not understanding what her maid chief was talking about.
"Well, Arthur...... I can be so close to the second lady, but ......"
"Uh......" Leimi was slightly stunned.
She didn't think too much about it just now, but now she suddenly remembered her sister's terrifying ability......
Turning his head to look at Arthur.
Sure enough, Arthur, who was so close to Fran, didn't have anything to do at all!
"Fran, you ......"
Remi's face was suddenly full of joy, and she was about to say something, but her eyes suddenly froze at the scene where Fran casually turned a stone next to her into powder, and the joy on her face suddenly froze.
"That, eldest miss, it's just that I'm just immune to the power of the second miss."
“……”
"But eldest miss, I can help second miss control that terrifying power."
"Really?" Remi's eyes lit up.
"Really."
Arthur nodded solemnly.
To be honest, the weird ability in Fran's body was taken away by him with special means, and only a small part was left, so the possibility of losing control was greatly reduced.
The reason why Fran is still unconsciously wreaking havoc on things around her is that she hasn't reacted yet.
As long as Arthur teaches him well, with the bloodline of Nadracula in Fran's body, it is still easy to master this part of the power.
"Then please...... Hmph, then I'll reluctantly forgive you this time. ”
Halfway through the words of thanks, the eldest lady suddenly realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned her head and put on a proud appearance, but there was still a trace of eagerness on her face.
"I command you, you must help Fran control this power!"
Although it was a commanding tone, there was a hint of longing and pleading in Remi's eyes, and it was obvious that she took this matter very seriously.
"Yes, my eldest lady."
Arthur couldn't help but smile softly as he looked at the cute vampire in front of him.
