“Sam, the butler, was a drug dealer.
Jane in the laundry room is a famous thief.
She even stole a countess “I kept Laura's words in my head.
“Then what about Laura?
““I don't have a criminal record yet!
“What are you thinking?
““I haven't gotten it yet.
Sometimes I feel like stabbing people's throats, so I think it would be really cute “So Laura smiled shyly.
“Laura, watch your words in front of Little Miss “When Leah spoke harshly, Laura said, “Oh, okay!
She covered her mouth.
“I'm sorry!
I don't have a history.
But I was born in prison and spoke a little harshly ““Were you born in prison?
““Yes, my mother was a cult leader.
She only found out she was pregnant in prison.
So she gave birth to me in prison, and I lived with my mother until I was three years old, and when I was four years old, she handed me over “This made it difficult for Laura to find a job.
It is said that even though they were looking for a job, they were soon caught, so they often moved from one job to another..
“I know all the employees.
But, I'm probably the quickest person to know about rumors about the aristocracy!
“When I saw Laura speaking proudly, my eyes lit up.
“Then let me know.
Is there any rumor these days?
““The funny thing is the story of Mr.
Constance.
He had an affair with his fiancée's mother!
Oh, my God!
Everyone seemed surprised.
What is this mess?
It wasn't what I was curious about, but it was an exciting story that made me forget my original goal.
“Not this.
Any other funny rumors?
““Lord Lin's story is also interesting.
Mrs.
Ruapang really likes him because he is a great guy.
To see him, she canceled her tea party …” I listened to Laura's story.
At that time, something was vibrating in my pocket.
' It is a communication device.’ This was an expensive magic device that I had recently purchased.
It was so expensive that I was going to cry when I paid for it.
Not only did I buy one, but I also bought for Seria and the president.
The three of us wouldn't use it unless it was something really important like this.
When I furtively glanced inside my pocket, it was Syria's code. [ She took the bait.] It seemed that the Empress had finally purchased the Luminous Medicine.
I patted my pocket and returned to Laura's story. *** Adolf, one of twenty-one priests in charge of the central church, disobeyed the Empress Dowager.
“Her Majesty the Empress “" Sit." The Empress received him with a kind smile as usual.
Adolf, who had been standing, sat down in the chair.
' This damned old woman.’ Although on the surface she was like a cute lamb, he knew how greedy that old woman was.
Five years ago, Adolf, who had gone to prison to pray for a wanted criminal who was about to be executed, returned with a pale face..
“I found the original version of the Bible ““What are you talking about?
I've been looking for it, but I don't even have an idea ““I knew where the original Bible was.
It's in the Empress's secret library ““Impossible … If the Empress had found it, she would have given it to us “When I went to the place the wanted criminal told me about, the Empress's people were guarding the place.
Surely there is a library that we do not know about.
The wanted criminal's words were credible.
As a test, when he ordered the Empress to mention the secret library, she immediately moved the library.
Later, it was confirmed that workers excavated the ancient plateau on the orders of the Empress seven years ago.
' You pretend to trust the Church, but you play tricks behind our backs to steal the Bible?
' The Empress knew better that the Church was searching for the original scriptures of the Bible.
I have to get it into my hands somehow.
With the original version of the Bible in hand, he could have entered the Vatican, not the central church.
So Adolf kept the matter a secret from the church and tried for five years to convince the Empress.
The Empress raised the teacup with a casual look.
“Destiny's Child will participate in this year's banquet.
I was curious how you grew up in Doubled “Adolf answered : “Yes …” With a sad look.
On February 29, the day the prophecy was issued, an orphan girl was born with divine power and became Destiny's Child, but she did not attract his attention..
It was her only strength * Lahia, re-verified, is so normal that she will save the world.
Even if she had only increased her strength * Hi, many people in the church said it was fake.
“How is your illness today?
““It's much better.
Winter was always tough, but it didn't hurt so much come spring ““I distributed holy water.
It will make you feel more comfortable ““Oh, thank you “Adolf said in a calm voice as he saw the smiling Empress.
“By the way, Your Majesty.
The library you wanted to show me that day …” “Now that I think about it, I'm ashamed to show you.
I don't have any special old books “Adolf's eyes hardened.
' Old woman!’ When her skin condition gets worse, she acts like she would do anything if she could just get the treatment and keep my mouth shut.
Adolf said, smiling awkwardly.
“If I read your books, I might find something more helpful for your illness next time “" oh well.
You don't have to come and help me with treatment next time “"… Sorry?
““I found a good medicine “" medicine?
““They say it's a drug that makes us younger “The Empress put the medicine bottle on the table and said : “It's a trick, but it works.
It is less itchy than any other medicine “The priest's face was distorted.
This medicine has actually reduced the number of aristocrats seeking treatment.
The number of donations has decreased because of this, so it is difficult to inform the bosses.
' Is it the pinnacle of hope?
' Five years ago, when he tried to pressure Doubled, Hope Peak appeared out of nowhere and destroyed him.
Not only that, it has also reduced the market price of spinel excessively.
Reducing the value of the spinel mine owned by the church.
In the end, they were forced to sell the useless spinel mine, and now Hope Peak had almost a monopoly on the spinel market..
Adolf clenched his fists. *** Before the banquet, I went out to the shopping area with my two brothers to buy a dress.
Since it was the empire's busiest street, it was crowded despite it being a weekday.
“Should I walk holding your hands?
“Isik held my hand tightly and said : “Yes, the crowd will sweep you away “Henry grabbed my other hand as well.
' Because this is near the church, I should never leave my brothers.’ I made my decision and walked courageously.
Fortunately, the store was nearby, so even if there were a lot of people, we could get there without any obstacles.
Inside the store, a long-haired man who looked like an employee and the owner walked out.
“My name is Melvin.
Welcome to Melvin's wardrobe “The man, whose face was shining with oil, rubbed his hands and said so.
' Melvin?
' Melvin is a good designer for the wives of nobles.
His dress was so expensive that it was difficult to buy it unless they were of high-ranking aristocracy.
So the wives of most noble families used melvin dresses for years.
“The Duke's children are very impressive today “At Melvin's words, Henry and Isik sat on the sofa.
“Finally we came up with a design fit for nobility.
Embroidered with silver thread on pure white fabric.
And a two-button suit …” “Don't mind my clothes, take care of my sister “Just then Melvin turned to me.
“She Which …” “Miss Doubled “When Isik frowned and corrected him, a stunned Melvin nodded : “Oh, yes ““My store also has a lot of beautiful clothes to match little miss.
Aliana!
As he opened his mouth, the green-dressed employee approached him.
“Miss Doppeld, we'll show you our clothes “When she came, smiling, she led me to the hangers.
Meanwhile, Melvin clung to Henry and Isik and was chattering away.
“I heard that you two bravely destroyed the enemy in your first battle.
Melvin was deeply affected to hear this news...!” Maybe he wasn't interested in me at all, I'm not the Duke's daughter.
In the first place, Doubled is a very closed place, so the rumors don't go well, he didn't know that I was truly loved as his daughter..
“How do you like this dress?
The lace on the chest was designed by Melvin with all his heart and soul “They showed me different dresses, but I didn't really like them.
Since my response was lukewarm, the employee left saying she would bring in a design that wasn't in place yet.
My eyes widened when I saw the dress she had pulled out.
' Oh, this is what I wanted to wear in my second life.’ The lace collar was filled with sleeves.
' This was the most popular design of this period.’ The dress, hanging from Melvin's wardrobe window, looked like the dress of a fairy princess.
Will I look like a princess if I wear it?
I remember thinking about it.
I really liked this design.
It was the moment of putting on the dress.
" that!" she shouted in a bright voice.
She's a girl about my age with soft black hair and amber eyes.
“I, I like this “I blinked at the girl's words.
