Formerly, The Fallen Daughter of the Duke

Chapter 5



5. Who are you?

“Dear…,… Dear Claire”

Someone is calling me.

“Dear Claire, please wake up. We have arrived at the AEAS post.

……

Psst, I wake up.

(Yes, I was on the move now)

The carriage had already stopped.

Outside the window, you can see the brilliant lights of the station.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t realize. Good luck.”

In a hurry, grab the trunk case and get off the carriage.

Claire was completely asleep and didn’t seem to realize she had arrived at her destination.

(Kind of, I think I had a strange dream…)

I say relieved as the carriagekeeper helps me get the trunk case down tightly.

“It was two hours, but I’m glad you seemed to get a good rest a lot. Dear Claire, your complexion is much better.”

“Oh, you look so terrible.”

I get embarrassed, I hold my cheek.

“You’ll be tired of going out after a day spent in college…. By the way, EAS is a relatively safe city, but let us accompany you until someone picks you up just in case.

……

(Bad)

Indeed, it is unlikely that the noble lady will travel long distances without her squire, etc.

No matter how hurried you are, you should at least be picked up at the maximum point in time.

A regular carriageman wouldn’t have mentioned this. If you arrive at your destination and say, “I’ll pick you up later,” you’ll be escorted to the rendezvous café and lodge to complete your assignment.

But these two are both familiar to Claire.

He is purely worried about Claire and trying to do everything more than his duties.

I honestly told him the translation, and as a result, I just wanted to avoid the College and then Claire’s trends being uncovered by the Martino family.

Asberto, completely obsessed with Charlotte, could persecute Claire as harmless to the future queen.

Now that I haven’t been able to communicate properly with my father Benjamin or my brothers, I don’t even know if the house will shelter me in case that happens.

Besides, Claire’s desire is to be reborn and live as a different person.

“Uh, yeah. I’m meeting you at the cafe. I rushed out, so maybe I’ll be late for my squire’s arrival.”

Asking how Claire was doing as she thought about how to cut through the

“Yes, sir. I’ll come with you.”

One of the wagon attendants, not aware of the circumstances, replied nicely.

“Yeah, yeah. Well…”

(I’m in trouble…

The EAS gateway is the north entrance to the Noston Nation.

Combined in the city of Aeas, it’s not as busy as the king’s capital.

With good security and a lot of people living there, you won’t have trouble working either.

However, Claire was going further north than EAS, to the monastery.

Only some limited people have magic in this world.

It was the same thing as a monastery belonging to the church.

I wanted to go where I could help myself, even with the fall of the Girl Martino family.

Besides, if you go to the monastery and leave home, you can get under the umbrella of the church.

In this country, where the power of the Church is great, that seemed the safest means for Claire to live.

(If you keep doing this, you’ll be alone, and you’ll be able to go to the monastery without heading to the northern territories)

As he walked out in a hurry but managed to smile, he was accidentally called out.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, ma’am”

(… who?

Sarah’s blonde hair, tall. A voice like a boy who doesn’t resemble its beauty. Even Claire, who has been beside her two brothers and Asberto for years and is used to beauty, is going to be sucked into Emerald Green’s eyes.

“My name is Vik, my lady’s squire. Thank you for sending me this far. Everyone is waiting for you at the Boulevard Inn. Let’s get your stuff.”

He gives his hand to the carriageman’s trunk case as it flows, wiggling a people-loving smile.

It was so natural and favorable that the carriage attendant handed him the trunk case without being alarmed.

Claire, the carriageman and his three hardens with a smile often.

(Wait. Is this a thief?)

Claire thinks for a moment. Even if this is a thief, Claire won’t have any trouble. The only thing in the trunk case is a little clothing and stuff around you. The mother’s appearance is worn, and the money has been deposited in the bank in her personal name. I’m fine with losing my trunk case.

If you’re a thief, all you have to do is dump the trunk case and run to the knight’s stuffing after you break up with the carriageman.

In just a comma how many seconds, I look into his eyes again at a stranger holding a trunk case and offering his hand to Claire with a soft smile. I thought the clear emerald green told me it was okay.

(I’m sure you’ll be fine)

Claire turned her full grin to him so that she could not understand her anxiety, and took her hand and said.

“Vik, you were already there. Thank you for your hard work all the way…. This one is from the college. If I told you I might be late for your pick-up to the North Territories, you said I’d escort you because I’m worried about Master Claire.”

Tell him your name so the carriageman doesn’t suspect you.

“Was I? Thank you for taking the time to do this for Miss Claire.”

Apparently, you talked to me.

He bows his head deeply toward the carriageman.

Claire noticed.

Hold the trunk case, take Claire’s hand, he’s doing very beautifully, even though every trick is casual.

Every trick he takes, his behavior is like that of the aristocracy.

“Now, if you’ll excuse me here. Good luck. We look forward to seeing you again after the advanced ceremony.”

“Yeah, you too. Thanks for coming so far. Be careful on your way home.”

I thank the carriage attendant and drop him off.

Carriage attendant leaves a few meters, a dozen meters.

(… a little more)

Next to Claire, he doesn’t show the bare gesture of running away with a trunk case at the moment.

The wagon attendant returned to the barracks and became invisible.

It’s time.

Claire rebelled the journey of the Knight of Aeas to the stuffing place while she was dropping him off.

And I asked him after I was ready to run in my heart.

“Who are you?
