Chapter 42 “This time, I won’t let it slide! You always got beaten up and never said a word, but now you ran to Father and badmouthed about us? I won’t forgive you!” “If you did something wrong, you should be punished! The one who hits is guilty, not the one who gets hit!” Even though Axel couldn’t hear me, I still shouted at him. “I’ll get revenge.” “In what way?” Tell me. I need to know so that my Dedrick can prepare in advance. But Axel didn’t answer.…-

Chapter 41 “Didi, should we check the upper shelves?” Since we couldn’t find it on the lower shelves, we raised our eyes. And finally, we found the book! In that huge library, we managed to find about five books related to the World Tree. “Only five books? No wonder it was hard to find.” Those five books were rarely read and placed on the top shelf, making it difficult to take them down. Since we needed to ask the librarian to borrow them, we secretly took the books and left…-

Chapter 40 I hadn’t lost my consciousness for long, but Dedrick had already cried so much that his eyes were red and swollen. I thought I was the only one desperate for him, but… It wasn’t just me. Realizing that made me happy, and before I knew it, the corners of my lips twitched into a smile. Dedrick pressed down on my lips with his finger. “…Why are you smiling?” “Because it turns out I’m not the only one who likes you, Didi!” He opened his mouth slightly in…-

Chapter 39 After Jacob left, Delani seemed pleased. I let her enjoy the moment. I was already looking forward to the day Jacob would return after awakening his aura—just to see the twisted expression on her face. As I was chuckling to myself, Dedrick returned from the library. Seeing my sly expression, he flinched. I quickly controlled my face and asked, “What fairy tale are we reading today?” Instead of answering, Dedrick handed me a book. The cover showed a fairy with four…-

Chapter 38 In the future, Jacob will be able to manifest Aura. If the Grand Duke finds out that Delani said such things about someone he personally appointed, her reputation in the Black Hawk will be ruined. Jacob might not say anything, but my mouth is quite loose. For now, I’ll stay quiet to protect Jacob’s honor, but the moment he manifests Aura, I’ll make sure everyone hears about this. “Good thing I stayed quiet!” I grinned and quickly slipped away as soon as the maid entered…-

Chapter 37 Jacob noticed it too, but he only frowned without responding. After all, Delani was the lady of Blackwood, so he couldn’t be rude to her. “I see… It looks like Dedrick likes you quite a lot.” “……” Jacob remained silent, but Delani began acting like a loving mother. “You know, Dedrick has always been weak. Losing his mother made him a little gloomy, too.” Oh no, here comes the badmouthing. I felt the urge to throw the tea at her, but I held…-

Chapter 36 “Huh?” Is he asking if he did well lifting me up? When did he get this strong? As I stood there with a dazed expression, Dedrick seemed disappointed that he didn’t get the reaction he expected. He mumbled hesitantly. “About the sparring earlier…” “Ah!” I had completely forgotten about it because I was so startled when he suddenly lifted me. I spread my arms wide and gave Dedrick a tight hug. “You did amazing! I was so shocked! I wanted to jump around while…-

Chapter 35 Dedrick stepped forward with his left foot, extending his arm to strike Jacob’s neck with the wooden sword. Jacob effortlessly dodged by stepping back. With that, the sparring match began in earnest, both of them clashing their swords seriously. Clang! Clack! As they fought, Jacob constantly pointed out Dedrick’s weaknesses. “This time, attacking the legs would be more effective than using your arms.” “I’ll remember that.” “Straighten your back. Your wrist is too…-

Chapter 34 “Are you really okay with that?” “Is there anything more important?” Why is he asking me that? “Yeah. You should do what you think is important.” I sat down with Dedrick. “But, Didi, this might seem random, but your opinion matters the most to me. If you don’t want to be the successor or if you want to do something else, you can do that. Anytime. Okay?” “Okay.” “Just do what you want, Didi!” “I will.” I felt uneasy, like I was pressuring…-

Chapter 33 Gemma stopped in her tracks and glared at the man named Arnold, as if she wanted to kill him. “Don’t call the Duchess by her name so casually.” “….” “We’re not the only ones at fault here. You’re not the only one holding the cards.” “But it’s true that it’s more favorable for me.” Gemma gritted her teeth, and the man shrugged lightly. “I’m not planning to do anything. I just want you to listen to my offer.” She turned around irritably and…-
