262 – Side Story – Twin Siblings’ Daily Life (5)
It’s not long before it’s time to leave school.
What that means is that Edgar also has to finish preparing to return to the castle soon.
President Baldwin must have been aware of this, so he visited the Robeheim siblings’ class as soon as the first-year students were dismissed from school.
Then he smiled kindly and bowed to Edgar.
Edgar felt a little uncomfortable that a man who looked like twice her age was bending over her, but since she was in a position, she willingly took the initiative to offer her hand.
“Thank you for visiting. Prince Bilhark.”
“No. “I’m just sorry for causing you trouble.”
“Please don’t think like that. Of course, it may be somewhat against the academy’s regulations, but it was a meaningful time for us and the children.”
As if the white mustache around his mouth he was not his form, Baldwin gave an answer that he felt experienced.
He is a person who is truly adept at putting gold on someone else’s face without going overboard.
Still, it was surprising to Edgar that he didn’t feel like a snake.
“If you happen to visit again next time, please let us know in advance.”
“I should restrain myself as much as possible, but… If that happens, I will tell you.”
For some reason, Edgar expected that the next time he stopped by the Academy, he would spend more time talking to Baldwin than spending time with the children.
This doesn’t necessarily mean that Baldwin is a snob, but in general, the more someone holds a position like this, the more likely he is to build up close relationships with his high-ranking people.
“Evan, goodbye!”
“Hi, Serena! See you tomorrow!”
“Goodbye to you too!”
“Uhm, hi.”
Meanwhile, the two people were handing over their bags to Ellie and saying hello to her friends.
The methods were truly contradictory.
Eline, who was watching the scene with her mother’s smile her her her, belatedly came to Edgar’s side as he finished his story her her her.
As soon as that happened, the two children also turned their heads and fell into Edgar’s arms.
“Dad! Instead of going straight home, can’t we stop by somewhere?”
Evan, who had been out with her father for a long time, began to show off to her in earnest.
Actually, Serena’s influence was a little bit intrusive, but she was disappointed to go straight to her castle, as was Evan.
“Really? “Is there somewhere you want to go?”
The two immediately fell into trouble at the question Edgar asked as they left the classroom.
Even though I was thinking about making a proposal, I didn’t actually have any idea of where it would go.
“Master. First, we got on the carriage and had a conversation…”
“Oh, I forgot about that. Shall we talk about it when we go?”
At Eline’s remonstrance, Edgar naturally picked Serena up and walked with her.
When these three people walked down the street together without Ariel, this composition was almost like a set procedure.
In fact, there is a hidden backstory here as well.
In the past, Katria had told him that it was not good to discriminate against her children, and she had told him to hug Evan too.
So when Edgar picked her up and held her son’s body when they went out together, she didn’t like it very much.
When I later asked her why, she said she was embarrassed to be held like a baby in her father’s arms.
It seemed to prove that a man, even a child, is a man.
“Take care!”
The three people left the main building and were seen off by the academy’s faculty and staff, including the president, and eventually boarded the carriage.
There is still time, so if there are places you want to stop by along the way, you can stop by as many times as you want.
“If we’re not going straight to the castle, we’ll have to eat outside. Is there anything else you want to eat?”
“I am meat!”
“I like anything.”
“Hmm. “Then, shall we go today according to my son’s taste?”
Although he usually ate at the castle when entertaining guests, Edgar also liked eating out, so he would often make reservations at restaurants with a nice atmosphere and go there with Ariel.
Thanks to this, I am fully familiar with the famous restaurants in Hespania, so there are many places to go.
Especially if the meat is delicious and it’s a good place to take children.
‘That would be nice.’
Edgar, who remembered a good restaurant, smiled and brought his children to his side.
Since the destination has been decided, we can chat along the way.
Even though less than 10 minutes had passed, the two children quickly broke down and fell apart.
*
The three people arrived at a restaurant in a tall building in the center of Hespania.
Here, the panoramic view of Hespania is clearly visible, and the food is of a very high standard as the business mainly targets the bourgeois and high-ranking people.
“You are Lord Bilhark! “I don’t know how long it’s been since I last saw you.”
When Edgar entered the restaurant accompanied by his children, the general manager personally came out and welcomed him.
Because it was a restaurant in Hespania, he was indebted to the Robeheim family, but his attitude was even more extreme because he was a man who personally admired Edgar.
“How have you been?”
When Edgar smiled and offered his hand, the general manager hurriedly bowed and accepted the hand with both hands.
“Thanks to the love of the Robeheim family, it is always successful. But why didn’t the Grand Duke come with you today?”
From noble mtl dot nete
“Oh, we were on our way to the children’s academy for a while, so it was just the three of us. Because her wife is probably meeting her guests.”
As soon as Edgar spoke, the two children who had been hidden from view by his body appeared.
“Hello!”
“Hello…”
“Hehe, some unique guests are with us today. “I’ll have to tell the chef to pay close attention to this.”
When nobles or high-ranking people come, it may be seen as a word given as a greeting, but this is not the case when the other person is the Robeheim family.
As if to prove this, the general manager called a nearby employee and told him to convey his message straight to his kitchen.
The waiter, who belatedly noticed Edgar’s presence, rushed to the kitchen and spoke in a trembling voice.
So Edgar took the children and headed to a private room where only VIPs sat.
It was a completely separate seat from the outside seating, and it was the perfect place to enjoy a quiet meal and the scenery as you could see the outside even though it was indoors.
“If you don’t mind being rude, may I dare to recommend today’s meal?”
“Let’s do that. Oh, instead, my son likes meat, so please adjust it to his taste.”
“By the way, I guess a la carte would be fine. “I will serve you with things I can recommend in my own way.”
The general manager, who took the order directly on behalf of the employee, soon quietly closed the door and disappeared.
Then, Ellie came to Edgar’s side and opened her mouth in a cautious tone.
“I… Master. There’s no need to be considerate of me…”
As a servant, she was very reluctant to have her meals at the same level as her master.
But her master was not such an easy person either.
“It’s just the right time to eat, so what do you think? “A person has to be full to work or not.”
“That’s right! Let’s eat together, Eline!”
Eline, who quickly sank under the pressure of her father and son, had no choice but to eat together.
Although I don’t think you’ll know if the meal goes to her nose or her mouth.
“Anyway, how was your dad going to the academy today? “I forgot to ask this.”
“It was great!”
“Me too. “I wish my dad would come again.”
“Wouldn’t that be difficult?”
You can go if you want to, but the problem is that an emergency summons order may be issued to the academy for all faculty and staff.
Of course, it was a good thing for a father to see the environment in which his son and daughter lived, but Edgar expressed his disapproval because he did not want to see it at the expense of others.
Surprisingly, it was Serena, not Evan, who expressed more regret.
‘It was nice that my friends praised my dad.’
Just like Ariel did in the past, Serena felt proud to see Edgar being admired in front of others.
She always thought that he was her own father and she wanted to keep him to herself, but I would say that she felt a strange sense of satisfaction when someone envied and praised him.
It was the moment when the young girl realized for the first time that just because something is precious, it is not a good idea to keep it hidden.
“Or rather than dad going to the academy, next time you get a chance, bring her friends to the castle.”
“Is that okay?”
“It won’t matter. “There’s nothing the academy can do to get there.”
Not being able to reveal one’s family name in the first place is bound to be a fairly meaningless rule.
In particular, the heir of a more prestigious family is bound to have contacts with other families from a young age, and children who were previously known to each other are likely to meet again at the academy.
So, Edgar thought that if there were children he had become friends with at the academy, it would be a good idea to invite them to the castle to play together.
“Wow! Then there are friends I want to bring!”
“Okay? “How about Serena?”
“Well, I have one too.”
Just because she’s a quiet Serena doesn’t mean she doesn’t have friends, so with her cheeks blushing, she just picked one.
She was a kind and lively friend who casually approached Serena, who often read books alone, and talked to her about various things.
“Anyway, bring him to the castle later. It’s okay to stay overnight and play together.”
“Wow!”
Knock.
Edgar, who was smiling happily as he saw Evan cheering, turned his head when he suddenly heard a knock.
When Edgar turned his head to see if the food was already ready, the general manager appeared again through the open door.
But isn’t your complexion a bit pale?
“I… Prince Bilhark. A customer came outside.”
“You mean customer?”
Regardless of how they knew Edgar was here, there are very few people who want to meet him when he visits a restaurant with his family.
So, the moment he tilts his head and tries to express a question.
“You fooled around with some girls and instead of crawling back to the castle, you leaked somewhere else, right?”
“Oh, Ariel?”
The owner of the Daegongga, who took on the form of a yaksha, entered the room in person.
At that moment, Edgar didn’t know what he had done wrong, but he could recognize that something was seriously wrong.
