The Duke's Castle consists of three buildings: the west wing, the central wing and the east wing. My room is on the third floor of the West Tower, and the Duke's master bedroom is in the central building. Long to the destination - cross the hallway, also through the crossing hallway, climb the stairs, walk up the stairs, and travel alone takes quite a while.

On the road, when a different guard saw me being held with my brother, he made me stretch my face a little.

Isn't this the exposer? One more reason why you can't live in this castle.

"Ugh. Listen, brother. He... the Duke of Vlage thinks I'm just a convenient woman. You can't be such a compassionate person and a couple."

"Don't cry. You might be able to take care of it. He's a generous guy who gets assholes like you."

"That's not true! I heard that! He said he was a weak-headed country girl who seemed submissive and sturdy about me!

"That's an accurate comment. You're stupid and sturdy."

I don't know if I'm submissive, but my brother.

Ugh. Not really.

When you're a brother, trying to appeal to emotion is like you're not responding. Rather, it's the end of a spicy word coming back.

"... this will be the master bedroom"

Ines stops in front of a big door. My brother nodded and threw me away like a wheat bag, as if to treat me with "see". Baltic humans have no mercy in them. Brother Tris, who is near his age among his brothers, is particularly unforgiving to me.

"To, brother..."

"My son-in-law is waiting inside. Just get inside."

"... would you like to come in with me?

"I'm not kidding."

My brother openly distorts his face.

Even I don't want to go into a bedroom with a real brother and a married partner. But I didn't want to face that duke alone any more.

"You mustn't, ma'am. Only your husband and wife will be allowed into this room. Even Serenia is not allowed to enter the master bedroom."

I get shot through Inez's keen gaze. The liking from the Vlage family samurai was close to zero on the first day.

... I have no choice. If this happens, it's a direct confrontation.

If you're going to bandit people's parents, I'm going to show them the barbarism they deserve.

Make up your mind and enter the door. As soon as I let go of my hand, the heavy door is Batan! and shut his mouth with a sound.

It was dark and quiet in the room. The air is limp and cold.

Because of the cold, the courage that was stirring him up shriveled.

"Oh, uh..."

Proceed to the back and look inside. In the dark, it became apparent that more than three times as many beds as my parents' beds were equipped with such beds.

The moon is peering through the window, and the moonlighting curtains are slightly shaking.

"Duke... me, my stomach hurts today..."

I'll call it in. No reply. Were you tired of waiting and falling asleep?

That would be convenient. Let's keep him asleep until morning.

Think about it that way, turn your heels back. Just because my husband was in a blast of sleep, I'm sure there's nothing to blame for going back to his room.

—— and the moment of thought.

There was a feeling of something cold penetrating deeply into my abdomen. Then that part gets cool and hot.

Furthermore, the same sensation runs on the chest.

"Ahhh..."

The heat spreads throughout your body. It wasn't until my body collapsed that I realized that was the sting pain.

"How..."

Doubts overflow with blood and pain. How did I get stabbed? To whom the hell?

I manage to move my head and look up over my head.

Among the twitching and obscuring sights, I saw a white blade glowing vividly and a black figure with it.

Again, the blade is swinging down on me with merciless light.

So my consciousness was cut off.
