Regarding the blind date, Lizelot was about to say,"'I'll try my best to change this.'
She heard Jing Yu say.
'He, he likes me…Does he want me to be his betrothed?'
She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Then, she lowered her chin shyly and rubbed the corner of her clothes shyly." I-I'll listen to Senior Jing Yu…"
After Jing Yu left, she regretted her boldness.
She covered her face with the blanket and scolded herself in embarrassment." Look at what you said just now. That was simply saying to Senior Jing Yu," You came to propose to my father, and I was willing…Oh my god! If Senior Jing Yu realized this, what would he think of me in the future?”
She looked like a young girl now, but thinking about such things, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
****
When Lizzelot woke up again, the sky was already bright.
She sat up immediately, ignoring her dazed head.
'What time is it? Has Senior Jing Yu arrived yet?'
She jumped off the bed and ran to the window barefooted. She pushed open the window to look at the sun…Phew, fortunately, the sun had only just risen from the horizon, and the warmth of the sunlight that shone on her body was not high.
Lizelot relaxed.
Feeling the cold morning air, she sneezed, but she smiled happily and shyly. She ran to her wardrobe and started to choose clothes.
Why did he do this?
The answer was, even if it was a pretense, the senior that he was looking forward to was coming today as if he was proposing marriage.
Of course, she had to prepare well.
Then, the duke noticed that his daughter was in a good mood today.
During breakfast, he even praised,"My daughter, I'm very happy that you can adjust your mentality. We are nobles. While we are rich in material wealth, we can't choose the people we like as we please like commoners. Everything was for the sake of the clan, so that the name 'Kreitia' could be passed down for a longer and more glorious time.”
" About this," Lizelot felt that this was an opportunity." Father, since you said that everything is for the family, if I can make enough achievements and help the family's prosperity. Then, can I decide my own marriage?”
"Oh?" The duke looked at her in surprise." Do you have any plans?”
His daughter was still too young. Even if the blind date was successful, he could not let his daughter marry him now. This meant that before she became an adult, there was time for her to try.
The premise was that she had to come up with an effective method.
"I don't want to make a big deal out of it, but you can immediately see that I think the courses in the Royal Academy are too simple." If possible, I don't want to continue going to the beginner division. I want to directly enter the advanced division!”
The duke looked at her in surprise.
The situation of those who could enter the Royal Academy was similar in all the countries. Even among the children of the aristocrats, they were the children with better academic standards and were more outstanding. Even so, the knowledge of the elementary department was not easy for a child like Lizelot.
He actually said that it was too easy and that he wanted to go to the high-level division.
There were several years of lessons in between!
"If it's possible, I can help you apply," said the duke. However, we have to test it first!"
"No problem!" " I won't let the name 'Kretia' be disgraced."”
As expected, the duke nodded in a good mood." Well said.”
An hour later, in the study room, the Duke, who had just finished his test on Lizelot and was very satisfied with Lizelot's academic ability, heard the butler's report.
"A young man with a child requests an audience with you.”
"He's here." Lizelot immediately knew that it was Jing Yu.
"Which family's son is he from?" the duke asked calmly.”
" No, this…" The butler hesitated.
Another voice suddenly sounded." I'll do it myself.”
The door opened. The person who appeared at the door was a young man wearing a black cloak whose face could not be seen. The girl beside him had very obvious characteristics.
It was an orc!
In the human world, demi-humans were like slaves, especially in the eyes of nobles…They were not treated as humans.
The duke frowned." What's going on?”
Because he felt that the young man was definitely a demi-human.
His butler brought the demi-human in front of him without his permission? No, the butler probably wouldn't dare to do that…He wasn't stupid enough to not see that there was something wrong.
As expected, the chin that was only exposed under the cloak revealed traces of a smile.
"I showed your guard the knight badge of the Royal Guards of the Kingdom of Beertum and attracted him to me. Then, I used my power to confuse him. Right now, he's just a puppet under my control.”
The young man waved his hand.
The butler actually turned around and left after bowing to him…It was as if he treated the young man as his true master.
The duke felt very uneasy.”
He shouted because he felt that this person was coming to harm him.
"Do you want to be controlled by me?" Under the cloak, a pair of dark, cold eyes could be seen.
The duke stopped and shouted," What, what do you want?”
"I want to talk to you!" The young man walked in.
The door to the room closed.
He went to the reception area and sat down. He looked at the Duke, who was still standing at the desk.
"Aren't you going to sit down?"
"…No, I'm fine like this.”
"Up to you then."
The young man shrugged and went straight to the point.
"As I said, I'm here to talk to you. I have some reasons and need to take care of some things. I can't take this child with me. I want her to live with you temporarily. Help me take care of her, and I'll give you something in return. For example, if someone wants to hurt you or your family, I can help you defeat them…I have enough power.”
When the duke heard this, he realized that the other party seemed to be really just here to discuss business, so he relaxed a little.
He looked at the little girl with the beast ears again." I don't have the right to refuse. But why…me?"
" To be exact," the young man turned to Lizelot." It's her!"”
