Haunted Duke’s Daughter

One.

Beautiful beds and furniture in large rooms. Take any one and you’ll find it to be the finest. That’s not an ornament, it’s what the lord of this room actually uses. Even the carpet laid on the floor is a luxury item you can’t imagine how much it will cost.

Everyone would envy a common man. A girl sat in that room with her head in her bed. Why, why, all the words are repeated in small voices. The face was stained with despair, and the neighborhood floated firmly around his eyes. Her proud long blonde hair is likely to show at a glance that she is not taking care of it.

Her thinker is the prince of this country. Hearing that there was a girl that the prince cared about, she went to see the girl at a school attended by nobles. She’s a quiet girl with a silly impression. The prince couldn’t possibly like such a woman, he tried to laugh with his nose, but in front of her the prince was talking to the girl. That, too, with such a full smile she’d never seen.

Then she started harassing the girl. Without resisting, the girl had been subjected to obstinate harassment by her and her surroundings. Because of her position, no one tried to help. The prince would have been able to help, but she stood around not to touch only the prince’s eyes.

It’s just that that can’t last forever. The scene of the Prince’s harassment, but also clearly seen where she got her own hands on it. The prince naturally raged, blamed her, and said away.

– I’m not getting involved with you anymore. Let’s talk to Father and have him put the engagement story back on the blank.

She despaired. I climbed under the Prince’s feet and said my apologies many times. Perhaps that was the first and last opportunity for salvation.

– You’ll have different people to apologize to.

That’s all the prince left to say, he shook off her hand and took the girl and left the spot.

That was a week ago. Ever since, she’s been stuck in the mansion’s own room.

Time to flow without meaning. I wish I had to do something, but I can’t do anything about it. The girl no longer had the strength to do something.

Today is the end of a wasted day. Night after night, the girl thought about that in a corner of her head, and

– Ha-ro. – Good morning. Good evening. Long time no see, Lilia.

To a voice that suddenly rang in his head, the woman called Lilia raised her face with momentum. I’ll take a look around, but no one’s here. It’s a quiet room of its own.

– Haha. Where are you looking?

To the voice of the young woman, Lilia was remembering two years ago. Same voice I’ve heard before. And that voice that I prophesied would touch the Prince’s scales.

“Where are you…?

– I’m here, but not here. I’m on your side! I’m an angel sent to carry you happiness!

“You’ve come to laugh at me?

– Well, you’re in a diagonal mood. Well, I don’t know what else to do. I’m sorry, with weird tension.

The last one was a really depressing, soggy voice. Lilia smiles slightly at the discrepancy. If you’re going to be depressed, I wish I hadn’t done it from the beginning, and I open my mouth.

“You’ve done what you predicted. If I had listened to you then, would I have avoided this situation?

– That’s a meaningless assumption. You weren’t going to listen to me then. That’s why this was a necessary process.

“The price of believing in you is too great…”

Lilia thought and sighed. You’re having trouble reacting, I didn’t hear your voice for a while.

quiet time flowed for a while, and Lilia wondered if she was already gone,

– I’m sorry, I can’t tell you what’s on my mind.

To that sad voice Lilia opened her eyes only slightly. What do you care if you deserve it more than you deserve it?

– Lilia, I want to help you. So why don’t you listen to me for a second?

To that voice, Lilia nodded with a bitter smile.

“You promised it originally. I fully believe your words. But can you help me like this? Can you make up with His Highness?

– Uh. Instead of the answer to that question, I wonder if I could give you another prophecy.

Lilia pressed on, as she narrowed her eyes surprisingly, go ahead.

– Then… You’ve been depressed for a week. A week after this, I think. What did I do wrong, what should I do? And you come to a conclusion. I said I wasn’t bad at all. He said it was the people around him who were bad.

“Become…! No matter how much I…!

– Yeah. He’s calming down. That’s what I can say now. Go on. You’re going back to school. As usual, swing around more than usual. As a result……

The voice stops the words there. Lilia swallows the saliva and waits for it to continue.

– You will touch the scales of the kings, not the princes. That way, even though it’s the Duke’s house, they can’t just be. You will be stripped of your title and your family will be thrown into the civilian world.

Oh, my God. I think so. It is true that the king of this country has that much authority, but there is no such thing as a duke whose title has actually been stripped. I won’t, I should.

– Come on, imagine, Lilia. Where the family of the Duke family, who have always lived as nobles, is suddenly thrown out into the civilian world…. Can’t you imagine?

As the voice says, Lilia doesn’t know what kind of life civilians live either. However, I would definitely not be able to afford a luxury like right now. In a family accustomed to this life, it should be unbearable. Maybe even suicide.

That much thought made Lilia wonder. It’s about Lilia’s family now, and I wonder why she won’t touch Lilia herself. I guess I guessed that, my voice said in a fun but sad strange voice.

– You don’t have to worry about yourself. Because he’s going to be executed.

When I heard that, my head turned bright white. To be executed? Who? Me? How could you?

– Keep your mouth shut about what you did. Because I don’t even need to know.

It was a gentle voice that touched Lilia, who turned pale.

– Okay, Lilia. That’s the point. I’m not going to let you die. I’ll give you some advice so you don’t step off the road. However, it’s not like I have a lot of life experience either, so I’ll be thinking about it with you…… I don’t know, Lilia.

Lilia thought a little and quickly concluded.

“Please… help…”

A weak voice, likely to disappear. Hear that voice of Lilia,

– Yeah…… Leave it to me, Lilia! I’ll help you!

To that powerful voice, Lilia quietly spilled tears.
