His blue eyes rolled along. Eugene calmly replied with a casual face.

“……..he didn’t say much.”

It was a monotonous voice without a high pitch.

But I could easily see that he was lying.

“No, Eugene. I know it’s not.”

“Spade, it’s really not. He didn’t say anything.”

“Well, then what was that reaction?”

I felt like my head was getting hot.

Even though I didn’t think of any magic circle, I felt like a flame would soon burn from both of my hands.

“Who else would have said that you act stupidly if it weren’t for your father.”

Eugene turned his head when I said it.

“It’s not just my father. Anyone would have thought so.”

“I’m telling you right now that you’re not!”

The voice rose without my knowledge. As soon as I finished speaking, I put my hand in my mouth and blocked it.

‘It’s not the time to be mad at him now.’

On top of that, the Duke of Ace was a man who openly criticized his son at a meeting with other Housekeepers. That also, in front of me, his son’s classmate.

‘There’s no way a guy like that would have gone home and told Eugene nothing.’

Regardless of whether Eugene said, I could roughly guess what he said to Eugene.

I bit my lips and breathed a sigh and touched my hot forehead with my hands.

Then I went back to the chair where I was sitting and leaned my back against the chair and said.

“I’m sorry, Eugene, it’s not going to be resolved by yelling at you. I think I’m a little agitated.”

Eugene looked at me with a look that he didn’t know what to say and opened his mouth with difficulty.

“No, it’s okay.”

The atmosphere subsided awkwardly.

It was quite cheerful before, but how did it end up like this.

Anyway, the Duke of Ace doesn’t help much in my life.

I thought it would be difficult to stay in the gym like this.

“If you don’t want to talk, I won’t ask you any more. Since you did that for me too.”

I got up from the chair and talked with a tap on my clothes.

“I think I have to go. See you in class.”

I turned my back on Eugene and moved to the gym exit.

When I left the gym, my heavy heart became heavier.

‘I should have just slept.’

At that moment, Eugene called my name.

“Wait, Spade!”

I stopped at Eugene’s voice.

Turning my head and looking back, Eugene was standing up and chewing his lips.

“My father said so.”

I was a little surprised. Because I thought he would never tell me what he heard.

“He said I’m not qualified to be a successor because I’ve forgotten what I had to do, and I’m not good enough to meddle in other people’s land.”

Again, it was not much different from what was expected.

“It is a disgrace to the family to do such stupid things in a precious time when I have to train harder than others and improve my skills.”

Listening to him quietly, I turned around.

And I went back to the seat I had earlier and sat down.

“I heard everything. He said you couldn’t use magic at the end because of me. When I heard that, I thought I shouldn’t have come forward as you said……….”

“I was wrong back then.”

I cut in Eugene’s words.

“As the master of the castle, it is natural for me to protect guests. So I told you to stay inside.”

In a calm voice, the story continued softly.

“But I didn’t know until you left. There are too many monsters for me to deal with alone. And there’s one incredible guy among them which I’ve never encountered before.”

I turned my head, looking at his deep blue eyes.

“If you hadn’t come out and fought with me, I wouldn’t have made it to kill seven monsters.”

“But if it weren’t for me, you could have killed eight.”

“You tried to catch the last one. You weren’t even letting that guy go at all.”

Eugene stared at me at the words. Blue eyes are not sharp. Unlike usual, Eugene’s eyes contained pure curiosity.

“So you don’t think that my act was stupid?”

It was a question that I didn’t have to think about.

“Of course. I don’t think it was stupid. And I don’t think it was an act that would threaten your succession.”

“Why?”

Eugene asked as if he could not understand.

“As a Housekeeper, we should always put reasonable choices first. Putting the people who lived in the estate first.”

I was heartbroken to hear that. I’m sure that the Duke of Ace said that.

‘Oh, that’s not wrong, but……’

“I was not reasonable, and I went to your estate and made useless interference when I couldn’t even take care of my territory.”

“That’s exactly what your father would say.”

As I muttered quietly, Eugene said with a dark expression.

“But, you know, Spade.”

“What?”

“My father’s words are sharp and straightforward, but generally correct.”

Eugene, who said so, sat down on the chair again as if he were falling down.

“Eugene.”

“Huh?”

“Some may think you’re stupid because of your behaviour, and others may think you’re stupid because of what you’re thinking. I know that.”

Why don’t I know? Have you ever been to a family meeting where so many opinions come and go?

“But I don’t think like that.”

Eugene’s eyes grew very slightly. As if a little surprised

“I know that your father often says the right thing. So I don’t often contradict your father at meetings. There are many times when I don’t really have anything to refute.”

I continued my story with my chin on my chin, squinting my eyes, and looking at Eugene.

“But that doesn’t always mean he’s saying the right thing.”

Like a blue jewel, his eyes that had been shining in an inorganic light began to glaze. Like it’s alive.

“This time, I think your father is wrong.”

Eugene rolled his eyes in confusion and began to cover and rub his eyes with his hands.

“Now I don’t know what’s right or what’s wrong.”

He took his hand off his eyes and muttered.

“When I’m with you, everything I’ve known seems to be shaking.”

“Really?”

I replied with a slight smile around my mouth.

“Then, can’t you just do what you want? Whatever you think is right.”

“I can’t do it because I’m so overwhelmed.”

“I don’t mean to get carried away by your mood. But act according to your principles.”

I glanced at Eugene, who still seemed confused.

“Not your father’s principle.”

Eugene couldn’t answer me right away.

‘Yeah, he’s been living his whole life based on what his father wants. It must be hard to change it at once.’

I opened my mouth, thinking so in my mouth.

“No matter how similar you are, you and your father aren’t exactly the same people. I don’t think you need to follow your father’s path.”

Eugene still had an expression of indecision.

‘Well, he’s a person who holds a child like that, so he won’t let Eugene do it.’

And because I didn’t have parents, I was able to make decisions relatively free of other people’s influence compared to Eugene.

Eugene probably took a little longer to escape from his parents’ influence.

Still, I didn’t want to wait and see those people imposing only their values ​​on Eugene.

That’s why I said this.

“Well, yeah. Pretend to be obedient to your father until you become a Housekeeper. You can do whatever you want after you become the master of the house.”

Eugene said with a look on his face as if he was dumbfounded by what I said.

“Wow, I didn’t see it that way. You’re using your little brain.”

“I’ve learned it after participating in the Housekeeper meetings. Anyway, listen to me.”

Looking at Eugene smiling, like he was finally relaxed, I also smiled.

“No one knows if you and I are right or if your father is right.”

“That’s true.”

“So prove it to me.”

At the sound, Eugene turned his head surprised, and his silver hair, which shone transparently like a white snowfield, shook.

“Whether it’s become a Housekeeper or Trump, prove it.”

I said every word with strength.

“That we were right.”

For a moment, Eugene’s blue eyes seemed to burn like a flame.

Like a blue flame coming from my hand.

“You can do it.”

Then Eugene asked with a slight frown.

“Me?

“Yes.”

I added with a nod.

“You’re the smartest and most sincere person I’ve ever seen.”

Eugene, who heard me, blushed as if he was ashamed.

“You’re really……..”

I don’t know exactly what he swallowed after.

Was it too much?’

But I didn’t lie or exaggerate.

I was really thinking so.

I just didn’t say anything in front of Eugene until now.

“Smart and sincere, isn’t that about you, not me?”

Eugene asked as if it was strange, with a face that still couldn’t erase the blush.

“What’s wrong with you, with all your praise.”

“Oh, Is it not? You’re smart, but you’re not sincere.”

“……what I said earlier, cancelled.”

I pouted my mouth forward and looked like I didn’t like it, but I was relieved inside.

This is because Eugene laughed and joked as if he had finally emptied everything.

“Oh, Eugene, let’s get going. It’s a little early, but I think we’d better go ahead.”

“You’re being stabbed because I’m not sincere, right? Aren’t you always coming perfectly on time?”

“I’m not that bad, you know. At least, I arrived 10 minutes in advance.”

“Well, I don’t think so.”

“So, are you going or not?”

When I asked, Eugene stood up, shrugging his shoulders.

“Of course, I’m going.”

He complained as he arranged his chair.

“I couldn’t even train because of someone. It’s been a long time since I came out early.”

“Who was the one who was playing hooky without training as soon as you got here?”

“I wasn’t just playing, I was having some time of contemplation and anguish.”

“Oh, yes, I suppose so.”

When I left the gym, the blue sky was completely brighter than earlier.

The wind, which had been blowing hard for some reason, was now calm.

“Spade.”

“Huh?”

The silver hair shone beautifully in the sun.

The eyes coloured with the colour of the sea were gently rolled like breaking waves.

“Thank you very much.”

I didn’t ask what he was grateful for.

Because his eyes were telling everything.

“This is nothing.”

Leaving a short answer, I walked out to the sunny field.
