Episode 155 – The quietest way before a storm comes

Anyway, Adalbert was able to safely finish his family reunion.

Some time has passed, and now it is time for Count Meidern and his wife to return to the Bregern Empire.

The two of them did not forget to thank Adalbert before leaving the Elpario Empire.

“Don’t make a mistake without us.”

“Son. My mother thinks that her granddaughter would be better than her grandson.”

“… ….”

“… ….”

Of course, it’s a one-sided blessing from the parent’s point of view.

Anyway, the two of them, who left such meaningful words, boarded a carriage and returned to the Bregern Empire.

As the carriage with Count Meidern and his wife disappeared into the distance, Adalbert and Nina returned to the hospital room again.

Adalbert returned to the hospital room and lay down on the bed again. Nina brought a chair and sat next to Adalbert.

“Ugh, both of you still have a mischievous personality.”

Recalling his parents’ last words, Adalbert was relieved that his past and present hadn’t changed at all.

Anyway, he wondered if his disappearance had a negative impact on the appearance of the two.

At the same time, he was an Adalbert who felt a little guilty looking at his old behavior of not sending a call.

“Unlike when the news of the young master’s disappearance was announced, he is much brighter now.”

Whether or not she knew what Adalbert was thinking, Nina sat down next to her and nodded her head silently.

“Well, now that you have confirmed that the young master is alive and passed away, both of you will be rejuvenated.”

Fortunately, Nina was positive about her meeting this time.

She had been the Maydern family’s exclusive maid for a long time, so she knew the Maidern family’s inner circumstances better than anyone else.

After Alberto’s disappearance was reported, the couple of Count Meidern lost their liveliness.

It was because Alberto delighted the count couple with his growth ahead of anyone else in the family, and was in fact in a situation where he had been appointed as the heir to succeed the family.

However, due to an unfortunate accident in an unexplored area, Alberto went missing, and his whereabouts could not be found anywhere.

However, the count couple could not give up their lives.

Alberto is missing, but his two daughters and youngest son are alive.

So they tried to control their emotions as much as possible and did not reveal their sadness in order not to let the three children go through the same thing as Alberto.

However, no matter how much you control your emotions, one person’s vacancy is not so easily filled.

Right now, Nina, as she herself sees, after Alberto’s disappearance, the atmosphere of Count Meidern and his wife was much more gloomy than before.

However, through today’s meeting, the two confirmed that Alberto was alive under the name of Adalbert, so it would be back to life.

In addition, since he confirmed the possibility that Adalbert could one day become Alberto and return to the Maidern family, this meeting would be more precious than any other gift.

“So don’t worry too much. You both will do well.”

After Nina finished her lengthy explanation, she spoke her words as if to comfort Adalbert.

“I guess so. If it’s just the two of you, I’m sure you’ll do well.”

With Nina’s consolation, Adalbert could feel her mind at ease, albeit a little.

For the day when one day, complete the mission given by the Emperor’s secret order, recover the name Alberto and return home.

Adalbert only hoped that his wound would heal as soon as possible.

Still, there is a long way to go.

In the carriage returning to the Bregern Empire, Count Meidern and his wife were sitting facing each other, looking out the carriage window at the scenery outside.

Countess Maydern, watching the passing scenery outside her window, turned her head to look at her husband.

“Honey.”

“Hmm? What’s wrong?”

Count Meidern turned her head toward her as her wife called him.

“Alberto. It’s okay, right?”

She was worried about her own son, Alberto.

He was a grown-up young man with one year left until he was nineteen, to be recognized as an adult next year.

However, no matter how old they are, children look young in the eyes of their parents.

The moment she caught sight of her bandages covering her shoulders and abdomen, she wanted to run over and hug her own son and ask if he was okay.

She didn’t know how much pain and suffering she must have felt, but she could tell that her wounds were quite large, not small, just because she was wearing bandages and using potions.

Especially, it was because the Meidern family’s hands were precious for generations, so they raised their children with great care, so getting hurt while growing up was rare enough to count on one hand.

In the past, he would have rushed right away and treated the wound himself, but now his son had another person next to him.

Nina Esselton.

No, it would be more correct to call him Baron Esselton now.

Because of his merits, he received the middle name of Gratias and became a nobleman.

Anyway, Baron Nina Gratias Esselton was with Alberto, who went by the name Adalbert.

I don’t know what’s going on, but rather than entrusting my son to someone I don’t know, it might be better to have someone I’ve been with for a long time.

However, she thought it was better because the two of them weren’t even close to each other, and they loved each other.

In the meantime, she was Nina, she was Alberto’s lady-in-waiting, and she never did anything she didn’t like.

In addition to that, she did everything she couldn’t do, such as cooking, cleaning, and even becoming an aristocrat through her own achievements.

Old age may be a blemish for some, but no one with a swollen liver would dare to say such an absurd statement in front of a sword master who lives by holding on to her.

However, one thing I was worried about was that the two of them might have an accident before they even got married.

In her words, there was such concern.

“I will do it. If it is that child.”

Earl Meidern didn’t even know what his wife was worried about.

“I guess so. If you still have accidents at that age, you’ll have to get scolded then.”

The Countess of Maydern was hoping that her son would not have an accident before he even got married.

Fortunately, Nina was deliberately leaving Adalbert alone because he was not yet an adult.

However, when the reins of the legal age limit were lifted, it was easy to see what would happen between the two of them.

Of course, the Meidern Countess and his wife didn’t know that at all.

As time passed and Adalbert’s wounds were healing to some extent, someone visited Adalbert’s hospital room.

– Smart.

“Come in.”

At the sound of knocking on the hospital room door, Adalbert allowed the knocker to enter the room, and soon the door opened and the knocker appeared.

That person was wearing a royal blue uniform that symbolized the Inspection Bureau of the El Pario Empire.

From noble mtl dot com.

Looking at the impression, he was a person who gave me that kind of feeling, as if he was going to be meticulous in everything.

“Are you a student of Adalbert Rainmed?”

“Yes, but.”

“I came from the Inspection Bureau of the Empire of El Pario. My name is Delio of the Inspection Bureau.”

As you can tell by the fact that he was wearing a navy blue uniform, he was from the Inspection Bureau.

“I came here to refer to student Adalbert’s opinion regarding this external training situation.”

Fortunately, I didn’t come to investigate Adalbert as a suspect.

In the first place, since Adalbert was a victim, he came to ask him for a reference point.

“What can I tell you first?”

In response to Delio’s words, Adalbert asked what he could say first.

“I would appreciate it if you could tell me everything. I came here to listen to the story for reference anyway, so what the student said will not be publicized externally and will only be used for investigation.”

“Then, let me tell you what I know.”

After Adalbert confirmed that Delio had finished speaking, he opened his mouth and started talking about what had happened.

Delio wrote down everything that came out of Adalbert’s mouth.

“Then, do you think there was a problem with the contents of the notebook from the beginning?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. Thank you for sharing your precious time. With reference to what you said, we will do our best to ensure that compensation for the damage suffered by the student is made quickly.”

Delio left the hospital room after talking with Adalbert.

And the next day, a piece of news turned the entire El Pario empire upside down.
