「Although it was troublesome, she didn’t have any ill will, huh? It felt similar to Anneliese-sama’s trouble causing, didn’t it?」
… What to say, are all the people in the mansion softhearted?
They say there was no ill will, but Amalie’s behavior really was terrible.
It wouldn’t be a mystery if people kept a distance from her, or even if they hated her. She was selfish like a child…
It’s already late, but I shouldn’t be eavesdropping anymore, I should head to the library soon.
I left from my hiding spot without making a sound and arrived at the library with the maids’ voices gradually fading.
Now then, what book should I read?
… It should be a book about magic, after all. Preparation for lessons is important!
I keep on reading.
Fumufumu, there’s quite a lot written here… ah! This might be good!
「”A barrier producing magic” this will be useful for Wirbel’s protection!」
The method of using… set the extent of the barrier while conscious of magical power and then… close it?
「What does “close” mean? N~ I don’t quite understand? This is hard without lessons, after all…」
It carries a locking feeling to it~
I’m conscious, and the extent is the mansion? Then I try to gesture with a key「Gacha」.
… Un, nothing happened.
I thought if it were a barrier nobody would be troubled, but it’s impossible without understanding it more, huh.
While feeling a bit disappointed, tonton I hear knocking on the door.
「Come in」
When I thought that tea is was brought for me, Berta hastily enters.
「Okusama!」
Berta begins to speak in a tense state, but her movements stop once she sees a book of magic in my hands.
「I, is something the matter?」
「Okusama… you have done something, didn’t you?」
Berta asks with an assertive tone.
Eh? I didn’t really do anything, right? Did I? Eh??
「I, I didn’t, I think?」
Even after denying, Berta’s gaze continued to pierce through me.
She definitely doesn’t believe me. Berta-san’s intuition is too good, after all.
Rather, what has happened!?
Tell me! No, I don’t want to hear it! I’m sorry!
