The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Could it have been about 30 minutes?

I succeeded in making Cedric understand by using all of my knowledge of the original story.

“Yes. I understand. So, it means that Polly isn’t actually a dog, he’s a magical being, and he’s cursed and trapped in this dog’s body.”

“Yes, you understood it perfectly. Yes.”

Actually, I was worried that Cedric would run out of the room and call the servants and yell ‘she’s crazy’ , but fortunately, he did not show that intense reaction.

Of course, a certain degree of disbelief seemed to remain in him. But even after that persuasion, he trusted me.

And Cedric asked a question as if he had one question.

“Then, how can you get rid of the curse?”

“You just have to go to a wizard with great magical skills and ask him to destroy the curse. Are you close to any wizard?”

At my question, Cedric shook his head without a moment’s thought.

“No, no. All I know are Knights full of sweat.”

“Is that so? Then we don’t have a choice. I have to go to a wizard I know and ask for it.”

“You mean there is a wizard you know?”

Cedric is amazed at me for the first time. He stared at me with his eyes and I tried to shrug my shoulders for no reason. What is the meaning of this.

“……Yes. A friend of my father’s and a great man skilled of magic in this problem. But there is one problem.”

“What. Tell me quickly, even if I have to get down on my knees, I’ll beg them to save my Polly.”

Seeing Cedric staring at me with an earnest glance, I sighed and said.

“Whoa, you know I’m a close friend of Lord Jake. He is the father of Lord Jake. Duke Theion.”

“……Jake’s father?”

At the moment, Cedric’s expression hardened.

I carefully looked at Cedric.

“By any chance, you don’t like it? Of course, I know that Lord Cedric has a bad relationship with Jake. But there is no way I can think of other than this.”

To be honest, I knew that Cedric would behave stubbornly as usual.

It was my expectation that he would take pride in saying that he could not ask Jake’s father, Duke Theion, even if he died, or that he would only answer that he would do so after a long agony.

“I’ll go. To Duke Theion, can I go now?”

But my expectations were broken.

Cedric replied immediately without worrying about it a second.

As if he had already made up his mind, he stood up and even got ready to go right away, holding Polly.

“Now, wait a second!”

“Why? Do you need anything else to prepare?”

It was me who was embarrassed because of it.

I didn’t know it would flow into such a quick and clear development.

I reached out to make a hand sign that means ‘just a moment!’ and added an explanation in a hurry.

“First, I have a communication device. I’ll contact Jake with this and ask for Duke Theion’s schedule. Because he’s an Archmage, he’s busy.”

“……yes. Go ahead.”

I was really glad about bringing a communication device from home in any case.

Although it was an expensive magical item that I received as a birthday gift when I was 4 years old, I contacted Jake with tears in my mind, thinking that I should use it at this time.

-Mir! Mir! Is it really Mir? Wow, Mir called me.

……Uh, no, I’m very sorry.

Jake, who is so happy, how disappointed he would be to learn that I wasn’t calling him, but because of Cedric’s business.

‘But I can’t help it.’

In the end, I explained to Jake about Cedric and Polly, and told him that Duke Theion’s help was absolutely necessary.

I was anxious and waited at the communication device for an answer to come back. Finally my answer came.

-……I can’t help it if Mir wants it. Then I’ll tell my father. He looked more free today than other days, so he’ll probably listen.

And new answers arrived one after another.

-I asked my father. He said it’s okay. Come right now. Mir, I’m waiting.
