The wife of the villains, returning to death to change her mind.

"... hahhh, what is that?

In the carriage, Sieg asked me that.

He is already three years old and is able to speak some sentences.

Even so, the complications are impossible for a boulder.

"That's Lake Ashan. Astelle boasts a beautiful lake where you can catch plenty of fish. Look, there's a boat floating around, right?

"Really! So, what do we all do?

"It's different from the sea. The water in the sea will be salty. The water in the lake is fresh water. They live in different species of fish... and monsters."

"What about Ma?

"That's right. The sea monsters are said to be much more likely to become huge. The ocean is much wider than the lake, depending on the concentration of magic in the water. There are other theories....."

When I looked at Sieg's face, I saw that he was twisting his neck hard.

"Hmm...."

"Elaine, it's still hard for Sieg to do more than just boulders."

And Cremant, who was riding in the carriage, said that, and I was sure, I nodded and said to Sieg,

"I'm sorry, Sieg. It was a little difficult, wasn't it?

That's what he said, but Sieg shook his neck.

"Yeah! Ha-ha, but I'm glad you did so much!

"Oh... is that so?

"Yeah, I didn't know..."

That's why Cremant and I looked at each other and laughed, and then I told Sieg.

"I'm sorry, Sieg. I'm going to tell you something a little easier next time... ah, is it time to get there?

As the speed of the carriage slowed down, I said so, and Cremant nodded.

"Ah, I'm entering the city. If we go a little further, it will be our beautiful villa."

That's what I said.

"Have you been there several times?

I have never been to an Astelle villa, but it belongs to Clément.

I asked him because I thought he seemed to have experience.

Clément nodded.

"Ah, a few times when I was a kid. I liked my father and mother, and I used to come here."

"Former Duke of Farrence... Father-in-law and Mrs. Rolf... Mother-in-law Sofi? Are you two sure now...?

"Yeah, I think I bought a little land for Trad and hid it there. It takes less than a day to get to Astelle and I think I can stop by. But you...."

The subtle cloudiness of Clément's words here is probably related to my relationship with my stepparents.

Cremant and I got married this way because Cremant wanted us to, but in fact, there was a passage that his parents didn't really think of me very well.

Of course, they didn't say that to the face, but Cremant was also somewhat opposed.

At the end, Clément seemed to be allowed to push him and say that, but I never talked to his parents much about that.

At best, during the wedding, I talked within the bounds of etiquette....

In retrospect, it certainly felt subtle at that time.

But there's nothing I can do about it.

I wasn't who I am back then.

I was depressed by various things and lost motivation, and as a result, I felt like I was pouring everything on myself.

Which parent would be pleased if such a woman came to my wife?

I just had to give my son permission because he asked so hard, and I don't want to get involved as much as I can.

It would be natural for you to think that way.

In fact, Rolf and Sophie have not visited the capital or the King's Farrenhal since they were hidden.

I don't think you can come to see me because I have my grandson, Sieg, but if you think that there is someone like me before, you won't want to come.

But still, they're not bad people.

You know how to be polite, and even when Sieg is born, she sends you gifts and greetings whenever her birthday or anniversary comes.

You won't want to be involved with me, but you will also send me a polite letter.

But it was true that there was a distance.

But honestly, I wanted to stop talking about that distance.

Soon after Sieg was born, which means I could have done it as soon as I came back from the previous time, but I had something to do.

And there was little danger in them, and there was an opening to involve step-parents who lived in hiding and quiet.

So after everything settled down, I postponed it.

Maybe it's because Clemen doesn't want to see his parents.

I feel sorry when I think about that.

That's why I told Cremant.

"Trudd. Surely there were plenty of delicious river fish to catch around there? Cultivation was flourishing."

"Hmm? That's true."

"Then I want Sieg to eat freshly caught fish, and I want you to meet Grandma and Grandma. Shall we greet each other during this vacation?

"Eh. It doesn't matter... I'm sure my parents would be happy, but Elaine's... okay? You don't really want to see my parents...."

"Cleman, that's not true. I was wondering if the injustice I've done up until now could put those people in danger... They live quietly. And I know you may not like me very much, but as far as I'm concerned, there's nothing in it. Even if you don't like me, Sieg is your child and your grandson? I have to let him see me."

"Elaine, thank you, but... you're not forcing it, are you?

"Of course. If I could just make up... it's not like I'm fighting, so it's a funny expression, but I wanted to talk to you for once. So....."

Speaking of which, it seems that Kreman, who is overly protective of boulders, knows that I don't have bad feelings for his parents.

Smiling and nodding,

"Okay, Elaine. However, if it seems impossible to meet... then you can be honest with me, right?

That's what I said.

He was very sweet to me, and he was willing to protect me as a husband, which I thought was very good, but I felt a little sorry for your parents because they were not bad people in the first place.
