80 – Gift

In the end, Siron was unable to buy anything as a gift for Siriel.

He visited the streets mainly used by those who could boast about having a lot of money, and even visited the blacksmith’s workshop, which was said to be famous in the capital, but nothing caught Siron’s eye.

‘I may have been too complacent.’

Siron sighed heavily and took heavy steps.

I just wanted to give Lucia a gift equal to the elixir she received, but everything went wrong. If you think about it, there was no way that a ready-made product suitable for the elixir that Lucia received could exist.

The elixir is. Because it was a luxury item that warriors and wizards were anxious to obtain. It was rude to compare it to more expensive accessories or refreshments.

No matter how much Siron pretended to be an aristocratic master, his essence was a possessor with commoner’s sensibilities.

However, that did not make Shiron intimidated. Walking along a path filled with flowers was very pleasant.

Refreshing and fragrant.

That was the impression I felt as soon as I opened the front door of the mansion.

Colorful flowers are blooming from the main gate to the main building in the distance. The garden managed by Eldrina herself was in full bloom, as if welcoming the group, even though spring had not yet arrived.

As if welcoming Siron back from an arduous journey, the flowers did not harm each other’s scent and made the group feel comfortable. Siron felt comfortable in Hugo’s mansion as if it were his own home.

As I approached the main building, I saw a man with an unusual appearance.

“Thank you for traveling such a long way.”

Hugo welcomed his nephews who came from a long trip.

“Why did you come to pick me up? “I wanted to visit you first.”

“…I’m home. “My uncle.”

Siron smiled brightly at Hugo, who came with a heavy body. Lucia lowered her head with a slightly stiff expression.

Even though he participated in the subjugation system, he appears to be in good health with no injuries whatsoever. Hugo felt relieved and smiled happily.

“Don’t be like that. I was supposed to lead you all myself, but I feel sorry for not being able to do so. “Good job John, too.”

“no. “I have something more serious to talk about.”

Johan approached Hugo with a slightly shady look.

Something was wrong. Hugo read the thoughts written on Johan’s face and looked at his nephews again.

“I want to have dinner together in the evening, so come to the main house when the sun sets. “I want to hear about what happened on the trip.”

*

That night. Siron and Lucia knocked on the door of the main house. Siron was wearing the formal clothes he always wore, and Lucia was wearing the flowy dress she wore last time.

Lucia stared at Siron while holding a gift package in her arms.

“Do I have to dress like this? “I think it’s a bit excessive.”

“You never know. It’s obvious that Lady Eldrina and Siriel were also dressed up. And when else would you dress up like this? “It’s an expensive piece of clothing, but I need to wear it as much as possible before it gets bigger and get my money’s worth.”

I wasn’t really expecting a welcome party, but I couldn’t just wear anything and accept an invitation to a meal.

And as expected. Siron’s choice was not wrong. Following the attendant’s guidance, they entered a hall with a large table, and Eldrina, wearing a sophisticated evening dress, greeted them first.

“How. “You’re nicely dressed.”

“Your wife really looks good in that dress.”

“brother!”

While exchanging greetings with Eldrina, Siriel approached me at a slightly faster pace.

“I am? “What about me?”

Siriel, who pointed her finger at her face, looked as dressed up as Lucia. I thought that Hugo and I would come out to meet Shiron, but he thought that he would have wanted to show off his best-dressed appearance as he hadn’t seen her in a long time.

“Cyriel is pretty too.”

Chiron smiled and gave her the answer she wanted. At that, Siriel smirked and trembled slightly.

“Hmm. Come on, have a seat.”

Hugo cleared his throat, a little displeased.

Shiron and Lucia sat down, and the servants of the mansion placed luxurious food on the table one after another.

There were various stories of regards, but in the end, the main story was Siriel’s complaint.

“Do you know how disappointed I am that you left me alone? It would be nice if you left at least one letter. “How can you leave without saying a word?”

“that’s right. “Shiron really did it too much.”

“I’m sorry, Siriel. calm down. huh?”

Siron kept repeating that he was sorry to Siriel. Siriel’s energy after drinking wine mixed with a little water was a bit difficult to handle.

“As I said before, it was really dangerous there. “A strange crazy woman just attacked me?”

“I don’t know. “You’re an idiot.”

“That’s right, Siron is a head of a body.”

Lucia added a congratulatory note to Siriel, who gave a long speech with a slightly red face.

“I heard that your brother killed that woman with one blow? “Then he wasn’t a very dangerous opponent?”

“that’s right. “The golem she controlled was extremely flimsy.”

Lucia nodded and agreed. In fact, she was a very difficult person to deal with, but she sympathized with Siriel because it was worth seeing Siron just keep saying sorry over and over again.

“Lucia! “You too!”

“…huh?”

However, Siriel’s arrow immediately headed towards Lucia.

“You enjoyed the festival alone with your brother! “Then you are an accomplice!”

“…It wasn’t a festival.”

“Quiet!”

“…”

“I thought of Lucia as a friend! I’m so sorry! Surely you could write a letter too!”

“…sorry.”

Lucia cringed at Siriel’s shouting.

‘Isn’t this it?’

Lucia felt a little dizzy and avoided Siriel’s gaze. Then a gift package caught her eye.

“that’s right!”

Lucia clapped her hands to brighten the mood.

“Ciriel, I brought a gift for you.”

“…gift?”

“huh. Look at this. It’s an award derived from the punitive system. “It was awarded directly by His Majesty the Emperor?”

Lucia took out a wooden box covered with luxurious cloth from the package. Inside it was a liquid that gave off a faint red light.

“…what’s this?”

“It’s an elixir. They say it’s made with mermaid’s blood, but if you take it, it increases mana and has anti-aging and cosmetic effects.”

“Hmm… really?”

Siriel glanced at Lucia with one eye closed. Consciousness was focused on the beauty effect rather than the effect of increasing mana.

“what. I will receive your gift well. I want you to be more careful next time.”

“huh. I’ll be careful next time.”

Lucia let out a sigh of relief when she saw that Siriel’s expression relaxed a little. It was the first time that Siriel was angry like this, so she felt uncomfortable. Lucia treated Siriel as a true friend, not as a child.

“…brother is?”

and.

Siriel opened the other eye this time.

“That’s it.”

Shiron rubbed the nape of her neck with a slightly embarrassed face.

Unlike Lucia, who had been holding a gift package since entering the hall, Chiron had always been empty-handed.

“It’s not that I don’t want to give you a gift… What is it? I was trying to find something better than Lucia’s gift…”

“…”

“Sorry.”

Shiron lowered his head and apologized.

however.

Just because he lowered his head didn’t mean he couldn’t see his face. Sitting between Lucia and Chiron, Siriel felt a little complicated looking at his face.

Then, Siriel looked at the plate in front of Chiron.

“uh…”

Shiron hadn’t touched the food until now. The deliciously grilled steak and the sparkling wine in the glass all remained lukewarm.

Then, Siriel woke up.

I was just excited and pushed hard, but I had no intention of pushing it this far. Cyriel was embarrassed and asked Eldrina for help.

However, Eldrina just smiled.

“Oh, brother? It’s okay even if you don’t have a gift. “I’m just happy that my brother came back safely…”

Siriel hesitated a little, then held Siron’s hands tightly.

Crunch-

A strange noise was heard from the head table where Hugo was sitting, but the most important thing to Siriel right now was Siron.

“…really?”

“huh. “Really.”

When Siron raised his head, Siriel smiled brightly.

“Now that I think about it. You said you were attacked by a crazy woman. I was so indifferent. “You must have been very shocked…”

“By the way, Siriel.”

“…huh?”

“I didn’t prepare anything at all?”

The moment I said that.

Rustling-

There was a bouquet of flowers in Siriel’s hand.

“!”

Everyone present was surprised. Lucia too. Hugo too. I didn’t see the process of Siron taking out the bouquet.

Ignoring the reactions of those around him, Shiron recited the lines he had prepared in advance.

“I’ll give it to you.”

“brother…!”

“It’s only for one day tomorrow, but we’ll go out together and buy the things you want to buy. how is it? “Is this enough?”

“Puhup!”

Eldrina, who was watching the situation, spat out the sparkling liquor she had in her mouth. At the wit of that impudent little boy, she whimpered and laughed, not even noticing that her dress was getting wet.

“…”

Hugo… didn’t say anything.

Arwen Plateau was definitely a dangerous place. Didn’t they say there were even attacks?

but. No matter how many reasons were given, Siriel was bound to be upset. But Siron overcame that crisis well.

Siron’s wit to comfort his sullen daughter. In some ways, it was a pleasing sight, but for some reason Hugo didn’t feel good as he looked at it.

Hugo felt a hot energy rising in his chest.

‘…again.’

Hugo was taken aback by a feeling he had never experienced before.

‘Why are you doing this? It’s a shame I can’t praise you…’

Looking at the knife twisting around in his hand, Hugo swallowed down the aching emotions.
