Chapter 46: Seeds Of Hope To End Longing

Chapter 46 – Seeds Of Hope To End Longing

“I heard that a blue-haired woman in the capital was making it.”

As soon as Kiehl heard of the twins' news in the imperial palace, he knew it was Iwer.

Summer of 1166. In the original novel, Rosanne and Kiehl were missing each other, though he found a seed of hope to end his longing after seven years. After a month or so, he rode a horse and saw the twins and Rosanne, whom he had not seen in over a year.

“Kiehl, long time no see.”

Rosanne’s face blushed and she greeted Kiehl, and Rio added a tribute to her.

“I found it thanks to Rosanne. She must have had a lot of money.”

"Oh really? Thanks. Rosanne.”

She was quite unfamiliar with Kiehl riding on the horse. Although she saw him a lot when traveling together, his attire looked more like a nobleman than a commoner, like the son of a family with a high reputation among nobles.

“Where is that blue hair?”

“Looks like some kind of tent sells them in bulk. Because today is the market day…”

Kiehl didn't listen to Rio at all and headed to the tent shop on the other side of the capital.

* * *

“You told me not to approach. You didn’t tell me to stop if he was approaching!”

How long has it been since he last saw the mansion family members? As soon as he saw that, Kiehl's tension was relieved.

“Pphpp.”

As soon as Rosanne entered the tent, she heard Kiehl's laughter and was startled and she looked at him. Even though she had been following this trip, it was the first time she had him smile with such a bright expression on his face.

“Iwer, I missed you.”

In Rosanne's memory, Kiehl never said such a thing.

"Haa. I can't get close, but I can't stop it."

As Iwer spread her arms, Kiehl drew closer to Iwer.

“You’re still here.”

“The Young Master has really grown up a lot. Wait a minute.”

Climbing into the chair next to her, Iwer hugged him like she had hugged Kiehl as a child.

“By the way, you’ve grown up so beautifully. If this is the case, I will have a very good chance of winning.”

"Really?"

It was Rosanne who panicked the most at Kiehl's behavior. He couldn't even smile, so it was shocking to have contact with someone like that. Also with a charming and beautiful blue-haired woman.

Of course, not only Rosanne, but the twins were looking at them in amazement.

"Wow… Kiehl hugs someone.”

"That's interesting."

With the twins in trouble, Jenkins decided to use Iwer's method on them.

“How did you get here?”

“We were looking for the person who made this potion.”

“…It’s Iwer.”

As Rio handed him the love potion, Jenkins smiled despondently.

“I’m smart, right?”

"Yes. Iwer, you are smart.”

Rosanne could not see the scene, so she left the tent, and Myu followed.

* * *

They had ordered a beer at the tavern inside the inn and waited.

"Well… But, shouldn't we find Lausanne, too? They probably wouldn't know we're here now. What if we waited in that tent earlier?”

As Rio asked worriedly, Kiehl frowned and opened his mouth.

“If there is no accommodation here, they will come. They wouldn't be that stupid."

The words were sharp like a knife, and Rio was sad as if he had become Rosanne. However, Iwer and Jenkins, who saw it, felt déjà vu.

“Oh my God, our Young Master smells like a young lady.”

“That’s what he grew up looking…”

Rio was at a crossroads.

Whether she was naive or stupid, he had to find Rosanne, who didn’t have a bad heart. Or, perhaps he should talk to the people of the Animal Kingdom that Kiehl always talked about. In the end, Rio decided to continue doing what his heart felt like.

“I’ll find Rosanne.”

Rio went out of the inn to find Rosanne. She was waiting with Myu in front of the tent. He remembered Kiehl saying, ‘They wouldn't be that stupid.'

“Rosanne, why are you here?”

"Ah. I thought you were gone for a while and came back.”

Even Rosanne knew that Kiehl wasn't there. For some reason, she stood there, wondering if he would find her at least once. However, as usual, today, not Kiehl, but Rio came.

Her voice trembled slightly, and Rio took off his coat and handed it to her.

“Everyone is at the inn. Let’s go back.”

Rosanne put on the robe and smiled bitterly.

“Kiehl… What does he think of me?”

As they traveled together, she felt there was a connection between Kiehl and herself. Though his actions were not at all, an inexplicable feeling kept telling her that ‘this person is my destiny.’

Already, the County might have flipped over, saying that they would kick their runaway daughter from the family register. Regardless, Rosanne didn't want to let go of this connection as she could continue to be by Kiehl's side for as long as time allowed.

‘You either don’t notice, or you just pretend you don’t know.’

If he was pretending not to know, there was no reason for that. Although it seemed like a dislike, Kiehl never threw her away or told her to leave. Even though Leo wanted to say, ‘he is not interested in you,' he didn't want to say it for fear of hurting her.

“It’s just that he doesn’t take good care of his surroundings. Don’t be too sad.”

Leo smirked, not knowing that the words he couldn't bear to say were becoming more hopeful advisers to Rosanne.

“But, those people earlier…”

Bitting her mouth as she recalled Iwer, she was really a person who looked attractive to anyone.

Leaving Rosanne, who wanted to be alone, Rio returned to the inn, and they were having a heated discussion in the inn's tavern.

“So, Bella went back to the Animal Kingdom?”

"Yes. For originally, she had to go when she was an adult.”

Kiehl sighed.

He thought he could meet her now though Bella wasn’t there.

‘That's why she said it like it was the last time.'

She said she was going to pick him up, but maybe it was too late. At that moment, he remembered what Jenkins and Bella had said a long time ago.

“Jen, didn’t you say that she could be summoned?”

"This… yes?”

“Jen. Let me know."

While Jenkins continued to hesitate, Rio sat down next to him with his beer.

“It doesn't matter to Iwer, but I cannot live there without the Miss. I don’t want to be hated for nothing.”

“Then, what if the Young Master pretends he knows without your knowledge? It should be okay.”

"Yes. I'll pretend I don't know."

The twins were horrified to see Kiehl smiling bashfully as he casually sipped the beer. The twins have been the mood makers in their travels over the past few years, although each time, Kiehl laughed for a moment and said nothing.

He was always nervous and did not give up easily.

They could tell by looking at his dealings with Rosanne and Myu, who had been traveling together for several years.

“You pretend you don’t know? Then, the Miss?”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“Good job, good job, Young Master!”

However, seeing him smiling and relaxing like that easily melted people away, Rio seemed to understand why Kiehl was so obsessed with ‘Animal Kingdom’.

“Is there a real place called Animal Kingdom?”

After meeting with Kiehl, Leo had been learning about the animal kingdom from time to time, and that was the most important thing.

“No matter how much I searched, I couldn’t find any clues.”

“Even if you look for it… No way…Have you been looking for us all this time?”

Kiehl answered without hesitation.

"Yes."

Even though it was a short and decisive answer, Jenkins shuddered to imagine how much time must have been wasted in that answer.

At the same time, a sad and crushed heart tickled his insides. Ever since he left, the emotion that he had forgotten about being with the selfish demons came flooding back. Bella's initial oath of obedience was, ‘not to tell Kiehl that she came from the underworld.’

To use Iwer's words, she said not to be caught by ‘Kiehl,' but not for anyone.

Jenkins drew the summoning circle on paper. Anyone who knew how to summon this would know where this destination was.

“It doesn’t mean that it will work just because you know this anyway. The required magic would be considerable. We need to find such a wizard first.”

“If it’s a wizard, Rinne can do it.”

Rinne shrugged her shoulders and smiled happily.

Jenkins turned his head at those words and glanced at Rinne, though she didn't look like a wizard at all.

“The magic of the wizard will determine whom the summoning circle will unfold in front of.”

“I know that much.”

“The final destination should be the Miss, but if this person lacks strength, it may not unfold in front of her.”

"Hmm."

“There has been no magician capable in two hundred years.”

Then, Rinne banged on the table in front of her and shot at Jenkins, “Hey, did you grow up hearing the voice of a genius who appeared for the first time in five hundred years?”

"Well. I don’t know who said it, but I think it boosts my self-esteem quite a bit.”

Even Jenkins did not lose to Rinne's words. Nonetheless, he waved the drawn summoning circle in his hand.

“Anyway, just like when the Miss first crossed over to the human world, when a summoning circle appears, she can find it and come over.”

Knowing that Bella was a princess from the Demon Realm, he thought that the Crown Prince Kiehl could somehow find a wizard capable of summoning.

“I would have to let her know in advance.”

Jenkins’ tone, who thoroughly excluded Rinne, made her feel bad.

“Give me that!”

Rinne snatched the paper from Jenkins' hand and glanced at it slowly. Jenkins took a sip of the beer and wondered, ‘Is this person capable?'

“Rinne, is it possible?”

Rinne saw the painting, and only then did she understand why they had been searching for ‘Animal Kingdom,’ still, she couldn't find it.

“It wasn’t the animal kingdom.”

Rio got close to him and saw the summoning circle, but he couldn’t tell.

“How do you know when you see this?”

“You should know just by looking at it.”

"Well… First of all, it has no time difference, it's just summoning space…”

“You won’t be able to graduate on time. Now, look at me and call me Older Sister.”

At that, Rio clapped his hands and said, "Ah! Is this place heaven?”

Jenkins spit out the beer he was drinking. Rio frowned as he wiped the beer that had splattered on his clothes.

“Kiehl said this every time. The person named Bella was like an angel.”

This time, Iwer choked while drinking her beer. Kiehl lowered his head, his face blushing slightly.

“…Rio. Stop talking.”

“Young master, where does the Miss look like an angel?”
