Civil Servant in a Romance Fantasy

276 – Let’s go to my house – 1

After the big event of the New Year’s ceremony and the marriage of a subordinate, I was able to spend a very peaceful vacation. During summer vacation, I felt like I was going crazy taking care of the lumps of luggage, but now I don’t have to worry about it, so it’s so comfortable.

Even the Fifth Empire, which was supposed to be a winter vacation event with a high probability, was blown off before I could even do anything about it. I wish I could live a life of eating raw like this in the future.

“Here.”

While looking at the clock blankly and waiting for the time to leave, the head of section 1 slipped out a piece of paper.

As soon as I checked the word vacation request written at the top, I immediately wrote my name in the signature line. I know the reason for taking vacation, but there is no need to look at the details.

“It’s the first time I’ve been on vacation with my boss.”

“It’s the first time I’m spending time with a subordinate.”

The place he wants to go while on vacation is the place I go. The county of Tyleglechen, which the family head and his mother are holding out for.

Didn’t you make a promise to your mother that you would visit the estate after the New Year’s ceremony? Of course, I couldn’t go alone, so I had to take my prospective daughters-in-law with me, and thanks to that, the first section manager had to take a vacation in a hurry.

Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to hate it.

“Oh, I also bought a present for my mother.”

“It’s extraordinary.”

I gave an appropriate nod to Section Chief 1, who was rummaging through his pockets. Even if this is her mother-in-law, she will have a normal accident and the Marquis Iones will shed tears of emotion when she sees it. It wouldn’t be strange if the Marquis made it this year.

“Your mother will like this, too, right?”

And a bright red ruby necklace protruding from the arms of section 1.

Hmm.

“…Yes, you’ll like it.”

“Right? I chose hard!”

I felt remorse when I saw Section 1’s eyes sparkling and happy, but I didn’t change my mind. When you live in the world, aren’t there times when you need white lies?

As far as I can remember, my mother was not the type to wear red clothes or her red jewelry. She liked soft and warm colors rather than too flashy colors.

But how could she tell the cruel truth to the prospective daughter-in-law who had prepared her present? Besides, she believes that even her mother-to-be daughter-in-law will like it if it is a gift prepared by her.

‘About one thing.’

Anyway, the present wasn’t just prepared for Section 1. All the daughters-in-law, who could not visit their parents-in-law empty-handed, prepared presents.

In the process, she suffered from a barrage of questions from her daughters-in-law who asked about her parents-in-law’s tastes, and when she said that her mother always wore her necklace, even if she didn’t know anything else, she prepared necklaces for everyone. I honestly don’t know what her family taste is, so she couldn’t speak. You know, you would have bought it.

Six necklaces that my mother will receive. Then wouldn’t it be okay to have at least one red one? Rather, among the plain colors, if there is something that stands out by itself, I think it will attract more attention.

‘I’ll use one for each day of the week.’

I burst into laughter as I came up with a foolish idea. The mother was in danger of wearing a different necklace every day because her son misled her mouth. She should have said that she likes all jewelry, not necklaces.

“I bought a present for my father, and prepared something for the manager!”

“No, why are you saying that in front of me?”

I received a small culture shock when I saw the head of Section 1 shouting confidently. This is new again Where is the person who makes a gift notice in front of the recipient?

“Even if I didn’t tell you, you know. You get presents on your birthday, of course.”

Then she nodded her head at the very persuasive words.

That’s right. Receiving a present on your birthday is something you know without anyone noticing it.

‘It’s my birthday.’

It’s a word I’ve half forgotten, so it feels a little strange. It’s a birthday I’ve had every year since I was possessed, but I forget it every year. Honestly, it’s not even my birthday.

– If you don’t mind, can you come at the end of January?

“Yes, I’m fine, but… Is something going on?”

– It’s your birthday.

“Ah.”

However, the karma of forgetting the birthday of the body returned splendidly. As soon as she heard my blank reply, her mother’s eyes seemed to say, ‘What the hell are you doing, how did you forget your birthday?’ Those slightly trembling eyes moved the triangle in my heart.

If I hadn’t said anything at that timing, I would have only received the eyes of the pitiful and pitiful animal and then ended contact. Even the most ignorant person can understand that much.

So, when I went this time, I hurriedly said that I would also take her sixth daughter-in-law, whom I hadn’t seen before, and only then could I escape from her mother’s moist eyes. I feel like I ran away with section 4 as a sacrifice, but what is it like? It’s enough if the results are good.

“By the way, Fenelia can go, too? I know that the Ministry of Special Affairs has strict restrictions on the number of people on leave.”

At the same time, the head of section 1 raised a very reasonable question as to whether his thoughts had reached the side of section 4.

Certainly, I heard that the Ministry of Special Affairs has a more complicated process for requesting leave than other departments. I heard that the number of people who can take vacation at one time is small compared to other departments.

“I heard that the Mukkwangdae kids returned their vacation.”

“Wow…”

But if there is a limit on the number of people, it’s okay if other people don’t go out. If all members of the Mook Gwangdae return their vacation, at least one section chief can come out easily.

…The madness of subordinates giving up vacation for their boss is frightening, but it’s okay to think that the 4th section chief is very popular.

After going through an adjustment period in which public officials match vacations with each other and the owner of the magic tower beats the owner of the vice tower.

“It’s been a while. It’s a nice place to come again.”

Thanks to the continent’s best wizard, I was able to move comfortably. When she teleported, she fell right in front of the castle, but that’s no longer the case when something inconvenient happens.

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I came here comfortably.”

At my greeting, Lord Ma smiled lightly and shook his head. As if this wasn’t a big deal.

Of course, it’s not really a big deal when you think of Ma’s ability, but it’s difficult to take care of others for granted. It is the right way to express gratitude, even for the smallest things.

“Thanks, Beatrix.”

So, as I whispered quietly, I felt Jong-Kong Ma’s ears tremble.

The effect is certain.

***

My heart beats. Today is the day I leave the mansion for the first time in my life. Not just leaving my room, but the day I leave the mansion.

“Sarah, are you okay? Aren’t you overdoing it? No, let’s just stay here. I’d rather—”

“It’s okay. Didn’t the test have already been completed?”

I felt uncomfortable seeing Erich next to me who seemed more nervous than me, but this is a step I must go through. In order to attend the academy like Erich, he eventually has to go outside.

You have to prove it. I have to show that there is no problem with me attending the academy or going out. Only then can he be with Erich.

“Everyone said there was nothing wrong. Don’t worry too much.”

She smiled, placing her index finger on Erich’s lips, still uneasy.

The wizard and the priest who were in charge of the treatment said there was nothing wrong. He said that life at the academy wouldn’t be a problem, so theoretically it’s perfect. Now, it is just a process of building a practice based on the theory.

“…Yes, okay.”

In the end, as if Erich had given up, she sighed and said.

“Instead, if it’s even a little strange, you’re going to take a break right away?”

In the midst of that, she added conditions, but I was rather happy to think that she cared about me that much.

“Huh, if it’s strange, I’ll have to rely on the driver.”

“I’ll have to stick around.”

Her face heated up a bit at those words. I said it to make fun of her, but her heart trembled for no reason as she counterattacked casually.

‘Continued…’

Still, that trembling was a trembling of joy. As soon as she heard Erich’s words, she instinctively developed a happy imagination.

Erich sticks by my side and doesn’t fall, Erich escorts me like a great knight. Just imagining it makes me happy It really is like a dream.

But it’s not a dream, it’s a reality.

“Yes, please.”

I smiled briskly and crossed arms with Erich. Then, I felt Erich’s body stiffen.

It’s cute. Her face went red too. How innocent you are, that you are only this shy.

“Come on, let’s go. Don’t be late.”

“Uh, yes. That, yes.”

Looking at Erich who stuttered to the end, she left her room with her confident steps.

…And I realized that my face was also extremely red after I left the room and looked in the mirror.

When she arrived at the castle, she was greeted by her mother and her wife. There were all sorts of questions pouring in, such as whether there was anything uncomfortable on the way, whether the body was okay, or whether it was cold, but it didn’t bother me at all as I thought the questions were full of affection and concern.

“Yes, it’s fine. You don’t have to worry.”

“You’re heartless. How can you not worry?”

Seeing my wife caressing my cheek and talking, I naturally smiled. Mother’s childhood friend and Erich’s mother. Because of that relationship, she cares about me to the extent that she calls me her aunt in private.

“It’s really good. My aunt sent me good therapists.”

At her words, the woman smiled faintly and turned her gaze toward her mother.

“You look exactly like you when you were young, but how can your personality be so different?”

I could see her mother’s eyebrows twitching at the sudden attack, but I could see her holding back as she looked at me on her first outing.

Although she instead gave her eyes a look that seemed to know what it meant to swear.

“Come to think of it, I guess I haven’t seen Carl in a while.”

“Yes. It’s been a few years.”

She ignored her mother’s gaze and her wife opened her mouth again. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Carl.

If my brother didn’t return to the manor with his lovers, there was a high possibility that I wouldn’t see him in the future if my body didn’t recover. My brother is so busy that he can’t visit the hospital.

‘Six…’

And when I thought of the number of lovers my brother would bring, I felt a little distant.

Oh my God, six. That’s six at the same time. Now, the Count and his wife are living happily together, but why is his son, Carl’s older brother?

‘… I heard that the former Count had several wives.’

Has blood manifested through generations? Then, then, is Erich going to have multiple wives like Karl’s brother?

‘I hate it.’

I held Erich’s hand with a trembling hand. No. I hate sharing my own knight with other girls.

Erich is my only knight. He is the knight who has protected me since I was young, and the knight whom only I have watched.

“Sarah?”

As I suddenly grabbed his hand, Erich asked what was going on.

“It’s a bit cold… Can I stay like this for a while?”

I replied with a slight smile at Erich.

It’s actually a lie. I want to do this for the rest of my life, not just for a moment.

I hope this hand that I’m holding right now is a hand that only I can hold.
