Chapter VI Family
Rust looked at the departing figure of the businesswoman, and the dejected look fell into the eyes of everyone in the room, and Enid couldn't help frowning when she looked at her brother like this.
She felt a little incomprehensible.
The jewel merchant, Milinda, was a perennial walker, shrewd and capable, full of confidence in her gestures, and was indeed very different from the pretentious aristocratic ladies of St. Valentine.
However, Enid is well aware of his brother, and in terms of IQ, he may indeed be a little nervous...... But in terms of emotional intelligence, you shouldn't be fascinated by a woman when you meet for the first time.
If it weren't for Enid's certainty that Rust wasn't affected by any psychic spells, perhaps she would have let Elle leave the woman behind.
Is it really love at first sight with negligible probability? It's really hard for Enid to be sure of something that usually only appears in bard poems and stories of knightly novels......
Because he hadn't studied it, Enid unconsciously maintained his usual rigorous attitude towards his brother's "love at first sight". However, it shouldn't be so easy to end anyway, so let's read on first.
After the deal was completed, Enid left Viscount Lancester's jewelry store with Ellie. The brother unsurprisingly made a clumsy excuse to stay in the shop, apparently hoping to find out more about Milinda from Viscount Lancet.
Jewelry Merchant...... Milinda? Enid played thoughtfully with a "diamond" that the businesswoman had given her at her parting.
"Elle, what do you think?"
"She smells the same as me. The faithful maid replied.
The same smell naturally does not mean that they happen to use the same perfume......
Elle's name is very ordinary, like the daughter of a country farmer, and her identity is also very ordinary, just the personal maid of a young lady of the earl's family, however, her person is not ordinary, especially when she draws her sword.
She is a high-level fighter, a high-level fighter who is not yet twenty years old!
Moreover, unlike most high-level professionals who have grown up in adventure, her skills have been honed on the battlefield.
Therefore, if she wants to kill someone, then except for a sword that seals her throat, she will never fight for a long time. If she wants to protect people, then, except to block deadly attacks, there will never be any other superfluous actions.
As it happened before in the tombs, on the long street.
In the same way, because of the countless killings in her life, she was naturally able to smell the same smell of blood on Milinda's body, which could not be covered up by no amount of expensive perfume.
Hearing the maid's answer, Enid fell into deep thought.
A jeweler who mixes zircons with diamonds and smells of blood, an adventurer with a large collection of high-end magical items who provokes the Noble family on the street, and a tomb robber who can't kill them all and flock to the ancient mausoleums around the Shiya Basin like ants.
Looks like we're in big trouble this time, Enid couldn't help but sigh.
"Sighing is not good for children. The maid beside her immediately spoke one by one.
Enid couldn't help but laugh, but what could I do without an adult to rely on?
All she needed was a stable environment, because only then could she be free to explore whatever she wanted. But, from another world's point of view, this may simply be the mentality of a vested interest.
Enid didn't want to dwell on it, and she didn't want to change. So, she never tried to bring something from another world here, for example, a social system that seemed to be more mature, advanced economic concepts, and so on.
At the end of the day, in this world, no one can understand themselves at all, and they are alone.
Ini took Ellie's hand and looked at her steadily, thinking endlessly in her mind. Thinking about it, his expression became sad, and his little face, eyes, nose, and eyebrows were all wrinkled together.
Ellie felt like her heart was melting.
"Miss?" she called tentatively.
Enid came back to her senses, and she looked at her closest maid, "Ellie, do you believe that there is another self somewhere beyond the vast void?"
The maid was stunned, she had no idea that it would be such a problem.
"Let's go back. Finally, the silver-haired young girl said.
......
On the second floor of the castle, in the earl's study, the little young girl stood at the desk with her head bowed.
"I know everything today. "The man behind the desk looked to be forty or fifty years old, he had silver hair neatly groomed even his sideburns, and his woolen coat was clean and straight, without a trace of wrinkles.
After saying this, he fell silent. The Count of Lilac was in the prime of life, but he did not seem to be in good spirits, and his eyes were always wandering aimlessly, as if he were looking for something.
"Let's go see Mom. I don't know how long it took to be fugue, he said to Enid.
Enid nodded and turned to leave.
Leaving the oppressive study, Enid breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since he was sensible, my father has been like this. Enid didn't know what was going on, and her brothers never mentioned it.
The mother in Count Lilac's mouth is not Enid's biological mother. The mother of her and her two older brothers died of illness shortly after giving birth to Enid, and Enid has a vague impression of her.
Enid made her way to a more secluded bedroom.
In the room, a beautiful blonde woman was lying on the bed. Russell, a year ago, this peasant girl from Lorraine became the new mistress of Lilac Castle, and because of her relationship, the relationship between the two older brothers and their father became cold.
But Enid got along well with her, or rather, Enid was one of the few people in the castle who could say a couple of words to her.
Seeing Enid arrive, a smile appeared on the blonde woman's face.
"Inni~" She beckoned Enid to sit on the edge of the bed.
"How's it going?" Enid looked curiously at the woman's slightly bulging belly.
"Do you want to hear it?, she seems to be able to move already~" The blonde woman stroked her belly.
"Why do you keep saying 'she', Russell?" asked Enid as she cautiously tilted her head and pressed her ear to the blonde's belly.
"Because I heard her voice~" Russell smiled happily, "She's calling my mom~ She must be a cute girl like Ini!"
There was no movement at all! Enid looked up, it's only been three months, and in general, it's impossible to kick, and it's even more nonsense to hear a sound or something.
After a few gossip with Russell, Enid was ready to leave, just as she opened the door.
"Sister~~Sister~~"
Enid jerked her head back.
