Chapter 35

"That... that is not it."

He made excuses in a bewildered voice.

"It's my nephew, how can I say it's interesting news? It's a story I brought up because I was worried."

"Nephew... Yes, it was. The Chancellor is your nephew."

"Yes."

"By the way, you sent your young nephew into exile to keep this position."

Hearing those words, he could hear the chief attendant, who was standing behind him, inhaling and exhaling.

Everyone in the Kingdom knows this, but what fearless person would expose that political weakness in front of the King? So, it was the first time that the chief attendant had seen him bring up the topic after serving the King so closely—especially directly from the King's mouth.

"Ah..."

The father-in-law did not know what to do. Defending himself would sound like he could make his nephew like that at any moment, and he couldn't even criticize the King.

The King watched him with eyes like a viper that could bite at any time. Only the sound of saliva being swallowed filled this place.

"Then... Is Kentrail okay? Brielle?"

The Queen asked in a surprised voice if she had just heard the news. But, the reply was cold.

"You didn't know about this until now? You want me to believe it? I heard that you had a big tea party recently, and the ladies didn't say anything there?"

Her husband's frosty tone was already certain.

She bowed her head silently. Caveran sent a good look to his daughter before getting up hastily to get out of there.

"Your Majesty... This humble person has an urgent business... I'll leave for now."

"I bet my wife would, too, so get going."

Her husband, whom she has not seen in a long time, has sent herself out from there.

Seeing the Queen come out after a short time, the maid chief secretly sighed in her eyes.

The time has come for Barry to go back to the Knights Academy.

The child hesitated to leave his elder and younger sister here. When he saw his sister who had passed out following the attack of a mysterious person, he wondered if he had been too greedy.

He sat in his room, alone, pondered deep in thought. The moon was really bright today.

After he sighed, Barry glanced away and the window opposite the mansion from his room caught his eye.

"Uh..."

For some reason, he could see the Count staring at him.

He bowed his head to greet. The Count raised one of his hands and pointed to the garden below. Perhaps it meant to walk together. Barry nodded his head boardly, indicating that a yes.

'What's going on?'

As he went down the stairs, Barry got a little nervous.

There were very few cases where the two of them were alone. Barry, unlike his older sister or Ellie, was a little awkward with the Count. It may have been a while since he left the mansion, but it seems that he was like that from the beginning.
