Meanwhile, Johannes's residence.
Elenoa was done getting ready, he was currently walking around in the room. At that time Elenoa was accompanied only by one servant.
" So, where's the Grand Duke? " Tanya Elenoa was curious.
The servant named Ruby answered Elenoa's question.
" I'll escort you madam. Grand Duke is in a park. He said he wanted to give you something. " Reply Ruby obeyed.
" Really?.." Asked Elenoa with slightly lowered eyes.
" Right, Madam. " Reply answer Ruby politely.
Elenoa nodded, and replied.
" Hmmm..All right, show me the way. " The Order of Elenoa.
Ruby the waiter showed her the way, she walked in front of Elenoa.
|Follow me and you will enter into the trap I have made. I must kill you, for this is an order. | Thought Ruby was evil.
If Ruby had thought that, she would have been the one Veronica meant. The servant who was assigned to kidnap Elenoa and kill Elenoa.
Elenoa then just followed Ruby from behind, she did not know that Ruby was Veronica's man.
If he finds out, maybe he'll catch Ruby right away.
" Wait! " Suddenly Elenoa stopped and glanced towards the servant's special residence.
" What's wrong, madam? " Ask Ruby.
| What else now? if I continue to delay time, Lady will definitely get angry. | Thought Ruby was impatient.
" I want to meet Rakian. " Suddenly Elenoa wants to meet Rakian.
Ruby was so upset, she wanted to take Elenoa away immediately. But she could not refuse Elenoa's request, if she refused, Elenoa would definitely be suspicious.
" But, the Grand Duke is waiting for you. " In return Ruby looked for an excuse.
" It'll be a while, so I want to see Rakian. " Said Elenoa kekeh.
Ruby pum inevitably nodded, if she continued to give an excuse, Elenoa would definitely be suspicious of him.
" good, Madam. I'll drive you. " Say Ruby.
Elenoa walked into the servant's residence. Meanwhile, Ruby is restless and agitated, as she must immediately bring Elenoa.
|Bothering, if it wasn't for Lady Veronica, I wouldn't have done this. | Thought Ruby.
The room used by Rakian.
At that time, the door of Rakian's room was guarded by several guards. Elenoa who came there, he asked that the room be opened, because he wanted to meet with Rakian.
" Open the door, I want to meet Rakian. " The Order of Elenoa.
The guard initially refused because they were told not to open Rakian's room. But Elenoa insisted, saying that he would take responsibility if there was something.
Because Elenoa insisted, the guards finally opened the room.
Ruby the waiter, waiting in front of the entrance. Because Elenoa didn't want anyone to follow him.
...----------------...
Special Room, where Rakian is.
" who? " A hoarse voice echoed within the room.
Elenoa who entered and closed the door of the room, she spoke in response to the voice earlier.
" It's me Elenoa. " Answer Elenoa.
The owner of the voice appeared, and spoke with a tired hoarse tone.
" ....Duchess, second owner after Grand Duke. " Say Rakian the owner of the voice.
His eyes did not reflect the desire to live. It was dim and empty, as if he was tired of moving on with life.
" Are you really that traitor? " Tanya Elenoa suddenly.
Hearing that, Rakian smiled bitterly, he replied without any lies.
" Yes, I'm a traitor. Even in the Goblin forest, I was the one who tried to kill Johannes. " The answer just came out of Rakian's mouth.
Elenoa at that time was not surprised at all, because he already knew from Eden.
Instead of being shocked, Elenoa asked Rakian instead. He asks what was the reason that made Rakian want to kill Johannes, but Elenoa knows, if Rakian is a good man.
" You must have a reason? why would you do that? " Task Elenoa.
Rakian pursed his lips, he was actually unwilling to answer Elenoa's question. Maybe this answer will sound trivial to others, but for him it is not.
".....Maybe for all of you nobles who have lived a luxurious and comfortable life since childhood, consider my story is just a trivial thing. So I don't want to say it. " Said Rakian.
Elenoa nodded in understanding, she did not want to force someone to speak.
" I got it. I won't force you to talk. " Said Elenoa.
" ....But, I want to correct the word comfortable and luxurious from your words. " Elenoa spoke again.
Rakian at that moment frowned looking astonished.
" We nobles are different. Our lives look comfortable and luxurious at first glance.....
" But behind those comforts and luxuries, there are struggles and pain that continue to haunt. So do not conclude that all nobles lived comfortably and luxuriously since childhood. " Said Elenoa with serious eyes.
Rakian just kept quiet, he felt that he had to say that to Elenoa, because he believed Elenoa was different from other nobles.
" Reason....." Rakian spoke uncertainly.
" The reason why I wanted to kill Johannes, was that he lived comfortably and I was thrown out. " But Rakian finally told the truth.
" I am the younger brother of Johannes, but my fate is different. I was dumped and Johannes was in love. " Rakian once again confessed.
" You're John's brother? " A surprised Elenoa asked.
" Yes, I was dumped while John wasn't. " Say Rakian moody.
" Who told you? " Tanya Elenoa was impatient.
" Veronica, she also tortured me like this. " Rakian unhesitatingly told the truth.
|I can't believe this. The reason Johannes didn't look good that night. Is it because of this? | Elenoa wonders in her mind.
" Are you sure? Veronica didn't lie to you? " Task Elenoa.
" I'm not sure, but he said I was Johannes' sister. Although different father. " Rakian looks unsure.
" What if Veronica lied about it? " Elenoa asked.
Rakian was silent, and he realized that Veronica could have lied to him.
".....I don't know if he's lying, I....
" If he lied and it turned out that I wasn't his sister, I'd be so ashamed. Moreover, I tried to kill him because I thought that he who was my brother lived comfortably while I was suffering. " Rakian said that with a face anxious about the truth he would one day accept.
" Rakian, if you're really his sister and think that Johannes lives comfortably. You're so wrong....
" You're wrong Rakian. John's life has never been smooth, he's just like you. Since childhood, he never saw his mother's face. Even his father. "
"There was no affection he had, since childhood his life was empty and dangerous. " Elenoa told the truth.
When he heard that, Rakian fell silent. His feelings were mixed, whether he should believe the words of Elenoa, or not.
" .....Go, I won't talk anymore. " Said Rakian.
|Why is he the same as me, or Elenoa just lying. | Thought Rakian fucked.
" I'm going to go. But everything I say is the truth. There are no lies. " Elenoa turned around and spoke.
