The next day, in the morning I prepared for brother's attack, but contrary to my expectations he wasn't kicking up a fuss.
No, that's inaccurate.
I asked father about it during breakfast.
"I heard about yesterday's uproar… I'm sorry for always bothering Alek-dono, but I had him come early in the morning and take Ricardo to work. I also wanted to talk with Sana at ease."
Alek-sama…
Honestly, honest~ly, I'm sorry for each time.
I'm relieved brother has such an aide.
I must thank him the next time.
"So that's how it is… Then, it seems the uproar will happen in the evening."
"Well, I'll do something at that time. By the way, Sana, please come to my room for a bit after this. I want to talk to you. Ah, please don't make such an uneasy face. It's really just a little talk."
Sana refrained from replying to my father.
Grandfather who was watching it spoke.
"Hmm, then let's talk together."
Saying that, grandfather and grandmother smiled at Sana.
Ooh, are they concerned about her?
"Then Lillina. I will borrow Sana for a little while."
I whispered to the anxious Sana.
'It's alright. Neither father, nor grandfather and grandmother will scold you, Sana. You haven't done anything wrong. Honestly, I'd like to come along, but I can't. I'm sorry."
Sana smiled slightly in response.
"Yes, it's alright."
Saying so Sana left the room following father.
I guess it's probably about brother… I wonder what will happen.
While Sana was talking with father, I was shown Sasuke-san's ninja arts in the garden.
The reason being, I was invited by Ange-san.
Ange-san seems to have been asking Sasuke-san to show her ninja arts for a long time.
Today he's showing us the art of concealment.
I, Ange-san, Sasuke-san. And Allen-kun came together in front of a tree.
"Then, Sasuke, as you promised, show us."
Ange-san asked Sasuke-san in a cheerful voice.
Conversely, Sasuke-san has an expression of it being extremely tiresome.
Is it alright?
"Haa, I understand, only once."
When Sasuke-san said so, dry leaves suddenly whirled up into the air.
And after a moment, Sasuke-san disappeared, by the time all the leaves fell to the ground he was nowhere to be seen.
"Kyaa~~! He really disappeared! Amazi~ng. Hey, Sasuke! Where are you?"
Ange-san is looking for Sasuke-san with glittering eyes.
I and Allen-kun didn't speak up, but we were surprised at this art.
"It's truly impressive. Although I didn't have the opportunity to analyze it, as I've thought, ninja arts are convenient. I wonder if you'll one day teach me them…"
It seems to have piqued Allen-kun's interest.
But, it certainly was good~.
"Hey, Sasuke~!"
It seems like Sasuke-san isn't coming out.
Could he have found it bothersome and ran away?
When I began having such doubts, I heard a voice from behind.
"Here."
In response to his voice, I turned around to see Sasuke-san standing there.
Oh, when did he.
When she saw Sasuke-san, Ange-san approached him in a dash.
She grasped both his hands
"Please! Teach me too!"
and implored him.
Allen-kun, who was watching it, approached as well, and asked to also be taught whenever possible.
"No way, it's troublesome. Besides, it's ninja arts, you aren't ninja. Impossible."
"Then, I'll become a ninja!"
No, no, Ange-san,
What are you aiming for?
"Stupid."
"It's not stupid! I've thought of it properly. Because, I'm weaker than Allen, can't do maid's job like Sansan… In that case, for Lillinoneesama's sake I thought it'd be good to become a ninja."
Eh? Becoming a ninja for my sake?
But, even if you say you're weaker than Allen-kun, you're still plenty strong for a woman, and originally you weren't a maid.
I think right now we have a good relationship as friends…
"Um, umm! Ange-san, you don't need to become a ninja. I'm very happy you'd do it for my sake, but you can stay as you're now."
As we were making racket in the garden, Sebastian came to us.
"Lillinsama, master called for you."
Ara? Father called for me.
I wonder what happened with Sana.
I left three of them who were still fighting and headed for my father's place.
When I entered father's room, there was no Sana, inside were grandfather, grandmother, furthermore a man whose face I don't recognize.
That person has a very blue face.
Moreover, he seemed quite impatient.
"Ah, Lillina. I'll call Ricardo now. I told you it's urgent, so I'll come back in a little while. Count Kukuul, she is my daughter Lillina. Lillina, he is Count Kukuul, Miss Elise's father."
Ah, certainly their eyes are similar… That's not it, why is he here?
Besides, a blue face… No way, grandfather!
Although I looked at my grandfather with such suspicion, he seems to be thinking something.
"Lillina, to put it straight. As a matter of fact, Miss Elise was kidnapped."
Eh~~!!
Why?
