“Mir, why are you coming now? I’ve been waiting a long time. Much more than a minute.”
Fortunately, the class hadn’t started yet, and the guards weren’t looking for us either. However, I had to feel sorry and my heart was heartbroken. The moment I met Jake, anxious waiting in front of the door, I remembered the promise I had made lately.
‘You forgot what you said to Jake!’
I became very sorry for having lied unintentionally. It was natural that Jake was worried as I hadn’t come more than 10 minutes. I would too.
“I’m sorry, Jake. You waited a long time…’”
Honestly, I had nothing to say even with my open mouth. Fortunately, though, Jake didn’t ask any more and took me into the classroom. So, it’s like a common story we usually talk about. When he told me to meet and play together on a day off from kindergarten, I naturally nodded and said to do so.
‘Well, I think I’ve been neglecting Jake a little these days. I’m feeling sorry all of a sudden.’
No matter how much I decide to come here and make a lot of friends, my old childhood friend is only Jake. It shouldn’t be something I regret. I was so focused on Jake that I didn’t notice. The fact that Cedric was looking at me for a long time even after class started.

And a few days passed.
Since the day Cedric shared his heartfelt concerns with me, surprisingly, Cedric and I have become incomparable best friends… or not, as it didn’t happen.
Sadly.
‘Uh, shouldn’t we get closer at this point?’
From that day on, the distance between Cedric and me didn’t seem that close.
Why?
I wondered if it was because Cedric had no common interest with me, unlike Ninaina. He seemed to be interested in the gonggi I brought for a while, but Cedric quickly got bored of gonggi. Huh, besides, if he wants to get close to someone, he’s always being mean and cold. Even though I helped save Polly as much as possible, and even encouraged Cedric, who seemed to be frustrated because he didn’t know his skills.
All of that effort to become friends felt like it was in vain. No matter how hard I try, if I feel like pouring water into a broken jar, I will lose energy. Besides, I’m a pretty impatient person, so it wasn’t like me to try this much. To be honest, I was thinking about giving up at this point about getting close to Cedric. Then, Cedric suddenly showed up with a very depressed expression one day.
“……Alice, do you know what’s wrong with Grand Lord Cedric?”
I asked Alice a question that was inaudible to Cedric. Alice noticed Cedric for a moment, and then replied in a small voice.
“……The sword was taken away.”
Only after listening to Alice’s words, I could understand why Cedric was acting so unlike himself. The sword that he had boasted of a while ago was taken away, so he had no choice but to be drooping without energy. Oh, it was Cedric’s second elder brother who had taken the sword. It wasn’t just taken. He had to offer the sword he had hung through a “fair” swordsmanship trial. Because of this, it was impossible to say that it was invalid, or to speak to his father.
“This is not a scam.”
Of course, when I heard that story, I thought so. No, no matter how much Cedric is an excellent knight. Cedric is still a young child, and it’s natural to lose if he fights with an older brother whose physique will be clearly different! It seems that Cedric first applied for a trial with his brother…….
“I heard from the butler of the Grand Duchy… Actually, Lord Cedric was deceived.”
When I listened to Alice’s whispering words, there was actually a separate situation.
Cedric’s second brother is said to have coveted the sword his younger brother Cedric has. For this reason, the whole story of the case was that he made Cedric apply for a trial first for saying something that touched his pride as a knight.
‘He’s a bad brother, really!’
I clicked my tongue.
Being an older brother and tricking his younger brother.
He is also the son of the knights’ family, but it is not fair to covet a sword and have an unfair battle! His Chivalry was also zero!
I erased my thoughts of not making friends with Cedric anymore, and decided to help Cedric one more time.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
