Haunted Duke’s Daughter

S2, I’m dedicated to you.

The mansion of the Duke of Ardis has a room that is clearly different in interest from the others. The room is large, but less furnished. There are only a few desks and chairs and beds. The Lord of this room is for not needing anything else, but it feels wider than Lilia’s room, which is supposed to be bigger than here for too little.

Furniture used in this room is also never a luxury item unlike anything else. As a result of following the Lord’s intentions in the room, all the furniture is likely to be available even in the Baron’s house. The furnishers, the kings and nobles of this country did not know which to choose, and they struggled quite a bit.

One of those desks, the one placed at the window, was loaded with tons of paper. The paper is written in beautiful letters. The Lord of the room sat at the side chair, reading one piece of the paper at a time.

A short distance away was the couch, and Lilia sat there, staring at how it was.

“How long have you been reading this?”

Speak to the Lord of the room, Sakura. Sakura looked back and said with a smile after showing a slight bare gesture of thinking.

“I’m almost done reading it.”

“That’s crazy, that’s supposed to be the third time I hear that.”

While I say that, I wait quietly without complaining any further.

All that is written on the paper Sakura reads is what Lilia taught her from Sakura. Sakura should be the only thing you know, so there shouldn’t be anything particularly interesting. Do I need to read it?

Waiting for Sakura to finish reading, Sakura abruptly stopped moving. I wonder if it was some kind of typo, and Lilia stands up frowning. That’s how I tried to start walking, and Sakura looked back at me.

Sakura was staring at this one with a full smile. With that look on his face, he gives me a piece of paper that I would have read earlier. Lilia received the paper in surprise. And I read that sentence, and instantly my cheeks got hot. Lilia turns that way so that she can’t see her reddened face and goes to throw away the paper she no longer needs.

“Oh Lilia, where are you going!? No!”

Sakura runs to take the paper from Lilia. When Lilia avoided it, Sakura proceeded straight in front of the door. We’re starting to stare at each other.

“Sakura, go through there.”

To Lilia’s words, Sakura immediately shook her head.

“No. Leave that paper and I’ll let you through”

“You can’t. I’ll throw away this paper.”

“It’s a shame I wrote it.”

“It won’t be necessary.”

The content written on this is really unnecessary compared to other pieces of paper. There’s a lot of knowledge written on other papers, but there’s nothing like that in this. Because what’s written on this paper?

“By the way, Lilia”

Lilia interrupts her thoughts in Sakura’s voice. Sakura smiled at Lilia.

“I already remember.”

Chuckle. Chuckle mischievously. Sakura, Lilia opened her eyes only for a moment, but immediately hid it and smiled. The cold sweat is pouring.

“Heh… You said you remembered in that moment? That’s why…”

“‘In this book'”

Lilia’s words stop perfectly. Lilia pulls her cheeks and Sakura continues to look fun.

“‘What’s in this book is what I taught more than my friends. I will write it down here because there are many things that are rare for me to know. Hope you can help for this country'”

That’s it, okay. I also feel like there was some embarrassing content to begin with, but it’s still okay. But I don’t want you to remember what lies ahead.

“‘Finally, I dedicate this book to Sakura, my unrivalled best friend'”

Sakura grins deeper. It’s a grin, a mean smile. Lilia sat on the nearest couch when she erased her expression from its face. Stay on the table and hide your face. To avoid being seen.

“One of a kind best friend?

Sakura stands in front of Lilia. I can tell by my voice alone. Sakura is in a very good mood and laughs happily. You’ll see a full smile when you look up, but now I don’t think I want to see that.

The reason is, crap, it’s simple.

Lilia, your face is bright red.

“Shut up…”

That was written before Sakura came back. Naturally, I didn’t expect to be seen sarcastically. Sakura’s return filled her head so much that she had forgotten her very existence. If only I could remember, I would have disposed of it before Sakura noticed me.

“Eh heh. Even my best friend. Glad to hear it.”

………… Kill him first… ”

“Er…”

Sakura seemed dissatisfied somewhere, but eventually she heard a small sigh. I hear the sound of folding the paper, and I look up wondering. When Sakura carefully folded the paper on which the earlier text was written, she went over it to her desk drawer.

“Yes. Now no one can see you anymore.”

“I’d like you to dispose of it.”

“No”

It would be useless to say any more. Fortunately, he kept it out of my sight other than Sakura. You should be convinced of that now. Lilia convinced herself so and said to Sakura.

“Well, that’s fine…… Don’t let anyone see it. If I show it to someone…”

“Why don’t you show me?

“I’ll fill your mouth with peppers.”

“Revenge is shady! Wow, okay. I’ll never show you.”

Sakura, once trembling her body loudly, let her face down and began to speak to herself. Lilia watches as she looks at it with surprise. Sakura nodded alright when she slapped her desk at the end.

“Now you’re okay! I can’t see it anymore!

“What? Did you do something?

“Yeah. I asked the spirits. If it’s open to anyone but me or Lilia, do it without mercy.”

Lilia accidentally pulled her cheeks. Wouldn’t that mean, kill? I don’t think you have to do anything that far, but you certainly wouldn’t have to worry about being seen.

“Now peppers can avoid……!

Sakura nods so many times. Now it’s okay, just so. Exactly, I really didn’t mean to feed you peppers, but you should keep your mouth shut about that.

“Well, Lilia!

Sakura moves in front of Lilia. Sakura has stared at Lilia with a serious look.

“Best friend?”

…………

Lilia turns a silent blind eye. Still staring at this one. Lilia sighed and glanced back at Sakura.

“For once, well, one way or another, yes, you’re my best friend, and you can’t help it.”

“Oh! It’s kind of an unclear answer, but don’t be happy! Wow!”

Hold down the sakura with one hand trying to hug me and say.

“Sakura. Shall we go shopping? Let’s go buy Dafu.”

“Go!”

Sakura rose up momentously and asked for a carriage, and left the room with momentum. He was able to distract Sakura from consciousness somehow. At times like this, Sakura seems simple and good.

Lilia leaked a relieved exhale and headed into her room to prepare herself for the outing.
