“I see.”
But to be honest, the way to the bedroom was too complicated and cumbersome.
The bedroom is covered with bright colors from the floor to the wall.
But Agnes instead of expressing her displeasure,
“Thank you.”
She said, smiling softly at him.
Laslo’s face turned red in an instant.
“Hmm. What do you mean thank you?”
“Can I ask you a favor?”
“Of course. Tell me anything.”
“Please reduce the number of my maids.”
“No!”
A surprisingly quick and firm response of refusal came back.
“At least remove the escort knights. Is there any reason for Matron and Max to follow me?”
“It’s normal to have guards in groups of two.”
Laslo shook his head sternly.
“Where do you think I will go? Why do I need two escorts to go back and forth from the office and the bedroom?”
“It is just right for the Duchess to always be accompanied by a knight.”
“Up until now, I didn’t have an escort knight but I did not experience any problem.”
“It’s because I was indifferent and neglectful to you. Please forgive me.”
“Have I ever felt indifferent or neglectful?”
Agnes strongly insisted, but it didn’t work.
Rather, Laslo was worried that the seven maids and two knights was not enough.
“It’s overflowing.”
“I hope you don’t feel any shortcomings in this castle.”
Laslo’s green eyes filled with sincerity, Agnes said as he hesitated.
“… There’s nothing lacking.”
“It’s because I always feel inadequate.”
He carefully reached out and covered the back of Agnes’s hand, which was on the table.
“I only remember what I couldn’t do for you.”
“……”
“Every day I think about how to give something better.”
“Laslo.”
“When I see you, I keep getting nervous.”
He smiled bitterly. Agnes somehow couldn’t say anything.
“If you are really uncomfortable, I will reduce the number of the maids serving you. However, the knight is for your safety, so please don’t send them away.”
“Let’s do it that way.”
Laslo got up from his seat. Naturally, his hand, which was covering Agnes’ hand, also let go.
“I’ll get going now. Have a good night’s sleep.”
When the heat surrounding the back of her hand disappeared, she felt empty.
Agnes touched the back of her hand, where Laslo’s had touched.
Her heart tickled like a flower swaying in the spring breeze.
Every time she saw Laslo’s face, she was overcome with this strange feeling.
Her intestines shook as if her toes had been torn apart, but it was also comfortable as if she was resting with a hard rock on her back.
When Laslo left, the maids who were standing afar approached Agnes.
“Shall we prepare for a bath?”
“Do that.”
If I soak my body in warm water, will this tickling heart subside a little?
Agnes took off her clothes and entered the bath.
“Are you worried about something?”
Ney asked, looking at Agnes’ eyes.
“No, nothing…….”
She tried to deny it, saying it was nothing, but suddenly she remembered that Ney was skilled in things between men and women.
“Ney.”
“Yes Madam.”
“What makes your heart tickle when you keep looking at someone?”
“Oh.”
Ney’s eyes twinkled excessively.
“Who are you looking at?”
“Don’t ask and give me the answer first.”
“It may be a little different depending on the target, but maybe it’s love, isn’t it?”
“Love?”
Agnes mumbled the word love over and over again, as if it were an unfamiliar word she had ever heard before.
“So, who is it? The Master? Right? Is it the Master?”
“Don’t say nonsense, just wash my hair.”
Then Ney carefully washed her hair with a meaningful laugh.
When she came out of her bath, her body was tired.
Usually, she would have fallen asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow, but strangely, she couldn’t fall asleep.
“Ney.”
Agnes, in a low voice, called the maid who had just opened the door and was about to leave.
“Do you need anything?”
“Please sit here for a second.”
All the other maids were gone and only Ney was left. Agnes jumped out of bed.
“Ney. What’s going on with Sir Zoltan these days?”
“What? Well, he’s fine.”
“What do you mean by fine?”
“It means to flirt in moderation and love in moderation.”
A smile appeared on Ney’s face. It was as gentle as spring.
“Well then, um. When did you know you loved Sir Zoltan?”
“Love, I don’t know.”
Ney fell into a short dilemma when asked a random question.
Agnes mentally counted the number of cases.
When the other person’s face shines? Or when you can only see the other person in the whole world?
If not, is it about being happy just thinking about it?
“After spending the night.”
“What?”
“I was not sure, but after spending the night together, it became clear.”
“O, okay…?”
Agnes was a little embarrassed because he spoke so casually and confidently.
“If we spend the night together, will I be sure?”
“Usually, you can tell for sure.”
Agnes was in trouble.
Although they shared the same bed many times, they never had more physical contact than necessary.
“Actually…….”
She honestly explained the situation to Ney. Ney listened carefully, nodding her head.
“So, you mean you want to sleep with him?”
“Um. Well, uhm.”
Agnes said, avoiding eye contact.
“Oh my. Leave this to me. Madam.”
Ney said with a confident face. Her eyes twinkled and she shouted out loud that she’ll take care of it.
However, when the next night came, there was nothing Ney brought.
“What did you prepare?”
“First, I’ll help you get dressed. Madam.”
Agnes was puzzled, but he meekly took off the dress she was wearing.
Ney brought her a Night dress.
“Why did you bring this? What about my underwear?”
“Don’t wear it today.”
“What?”
“Just wear this dress and go to the Master.”
“Ne, Ney, you’re crazy!”
Agnes blushed not only on her face but also on the tips of her ears.
On the other hand, her handmaiden had a calm look from beginning to end.
“Come on, spread your arms. Madam.”
Agnes yelled at her to bring her underwear right away, but Ney, who grew up with her from day one, didn’t blink an eye.
“I’m sure this is the way.”
Rather, she opened her eyes wide and forced Agnes to put the dress on her bare body.
“How can I…….”
Of course, it is said to be a dress worn in the bedroom, but the material is thick, so it does not show through.
But I felt different from usual.
Agnes couldn’t calm her red face murmured as she looked into the distance.
“Madam. This is the most important.”
“What is it?”
“Tell the Master that you forgot to wear your underwear.”
“What?”
Agnes jumped so much that it was incomparable to before.
Her face, which had barely faded from redness, turned even redder as if it would burst.
“How can I say that without going crazy, more than that to Laslo?”
“Oh my. Of course, you have to tell the Master. Who else are you going to tell that?”
“That, that, that…….”
Agnes was speechless, repeating the same thing over and over again like an idiot.
“Still, I can’t do this at all.”
She bowed her head and looked only at the tip of her toes.
Even though he was not in front of her right now, she couldn’t have dared to imagine saying these things in front of him.
“Madam, you said you wanted to sleep together”.
“…… That’s true.”
“There is no man who won’t fall for this word. I guarantee it?”
“Really?”
“Sigh. Don’t even talk about it. He’s going to change and rush right away.”
Ney spoke with confidence.
Agnes, who gained the courage from those words, found herself in front of Laslo’s bedroom.
Agnes took several deep breaths before he was able to stand in front of Laslo’s bedroom.
The servant who was standing in front of the door naturally opened the door.
“Agnes.”
Laslo, dressed comfortably, recognized her arrival and greeted her.
Agnes, embarrassed to make eye contact with him, put her head down and hold her trembling hand.
“What’s going on?”
“Laslo.”
She took a deep breath. But she still couldn’t talk right away.
“Huh?”
“I have something to say…”
“Tell me.”
“I mean, today. Hmm. That’s…. Today.”
She doesn’t know how hard she pulled the hem of her clothes that it wrinkled a lot.
Grasping the fingernail tip, she finally got to the point.
She doesn’t know how much she inhaled and exhaled to say a sentence.
“Hoo. So I mean, I didn’t wear underwear, hoo, today.”
Although her voice was small, she barely spoke to the end.
Agnes didn’t have the courage to look up at his face because of the embarrassment that was rushing in.
“Agnes.”
His voice quickly went down.
Laslo stretched out his arms and placed them on Agnes’ shoulders.
It was nothing special, but Agnes was surprised.
Her heart beat like it was going to explode. Her face also feels hot.
The room is so dark that it’s so hard to see well. That was the only consolation in the situation.
“I see.”
But to be honest, the way to the bedroom was too complicated and cumbersome.
The bedroom is covered with bright colors from the floor to the wall.
But Agnes instead of expressing her displeasure,
