I am the Nanny of the Villain

Chapter 132:



Sarah smiled meaningfully at Claude's question and looked at the slowly departing carriage.

"I have one of my brightest and prettiest disciples to pretend to be me for a while."

"Ah, it's Sister Belluna."

"You knew right away. Our Claude-nim is also very smart."

Sarah smiled softly and rubbed her cheek against Claude's. The child forgot to cry and grinned and struggled with ticklishness.

"......Ha."

Benjamin, who was watching the scene disguised as a servant of the mansion, quietly sighed. It was already time for him to get used to the affection between the two. It was also true that he was secretly indebted to those two.

"Young Lord Ambrosia and Countess Millen seem to have a pretty good relationship."

"Rumors that Millen's family had been exploited by the Duke of Ambrosia could be false."

The aristocrats chatted about Sarah and Claude, who looked on good terms. Benjamin listened quietly to their whispers, then approached Sarah and said.

"When do you intend to move over there?"

"I have to wait until those people leave. Ah, and what happened to the request?"

"All traces left in the garden and throughout the mansion have been disposed of."

Sarah sighed at Benjamin's words and looked at the nobles with sharp eyes.

"There are so many different kinds of traces, from video crystal balls to traces that the homing pigeon can be recognized."

"Thank you. How troublesome it is every time a guest comes in and out of Ambrosia's mansion."

Duke Ambrosia's family was known for its excellent security. There was a rumor that Duke Ambrosia's family was perhaps more veiled than the Imperial family. It stimulated people's curiosity, and at the same time, it aroused the desire to attack. So every time they received a guest like this, they would find various traces throughout Ambrosia.

"Still, the servant must have been very comfortable with you. Good job, Benjamin."

"......Yes."

Sarah praised Benjamin as she tapped him on the shoulder with her freed arm. Then the corners of Benjamin's eyes grew red, and the corners of his lips moved upward.

"......"

However, with Claude's eyes staring at him in Sarah's arms, Benjamin coughed a little and turned his head. Then he opened his mouth, sticking something out of his arms as if he had remembered it belatedly.

"Ah, and they are harmless to spy on Ambrosia, but I have collected these as well."

"These are......"

Sarah narrowed her brows when she saw what lay on Benjamin's palm.

"Women's handkerchiefs, earrings, necklaces, gloves......"

"It's not that dangerous, so I thought I'd just leave them alone, but just in case......"

"No. You did a great job, Benjamin. Really, really good job."

Sarah praised Benjamin in a more joyful voice than before. Then, as she looked at the nobles who turned their heads to see off the carriage, there was a lot of vigilance that was different from before.

"How dare they leave those masterpieces to announce their presence to Duke-nim......"

It was an attempt to say something to Ethan and make an appointment, saying that they had forgotten them at the duke's mansion.

'I didn't even know that the handkerchief was gone because I wasn't in a good mood that day, and I embroidered it myself...... Ah, I have been embroidering as a hobby since I was little! It was a handkerchief engraved with respect with Duke-nim's initials, and it's visiting its master like this.'

'These are precious earrings passed down to me by my grandmother, but I lost my eyes on the beautiful gardens of Ambrosia. I'd like to go get them back, if you'll let me......, do you have time?'

'I left one glove behind to pray for Duke-nim's safety. I want to give you the other one as well......'

In Sarah's mind, the words of the women who were aiming for Ethan rushed past. How good would a man who was handsome in her eyes look in the eyes of others? Sarah, who was flattered by eating, encountering, and talking with him every day in the mansion, had a subtle impatience. It wasn't the time to do this here.

"Do you think I'll stay still?"

"Pardon?"

"It's nothing."

Benjamin tilted his head as if puzzled by Sarah's murmuring voice, but Sarah secretly bit her lip and shook her head. Then she made up her mind when she saw the carriage leaving the mansion. She was really going to end it this time. On the way back from Alton Estate, she was going to make Ethan Ambrosia her man.

"......"

A duke and a magician leave to solve the difficulties of the empire. And the nobles who see them off. Various emotions were contained in the eyes of those who looked at the carriage carrying the duke and the magician. Some thought it was a moment that would go down in history, some were jealous of the duke who would become acquainted with the magician, and some thought about how to use this opportunity.

* * *

"Woahhh!"

"It's the Duke of Ambrosia's carriage!"

"The magician is riding in it!"

As the gates of Ambrosia opened and a carriage led by knights appeared, the waiting citizens cheered. It seemed that the ugly rumors circulating due to the affairs of Alton Estate soon turned into a festive atmosphere. This was also because Ambrosia, who was respected by the people of the Empire, and a magician who existed like a legend were moving at the same time. The people of the Empire fully enjoyed this moment that would go down in history. And Belluna, who had been quietly shutting her mouth in the carriage, slowly opened her mouth.

"......I'm going to lose my hearing."

Belluna raised her hand to take off the stuffy robe.

"They can see the silhouette through the window of the carriage, so be still."

"......Sure thing."

But at Ethan's restraint, she gently lowered her hand. In the future, her master would never take off the robe, so while pretending to be her, Belluna should never take off the robe.

"......"

Belluna clenched and stretched the hand that was on her lap awkwardly, examining Ethan's face through the robe. He closed his eyes and leaned his head against the carriage, but his defenseless appearance gave him a subtle feeling. Belluna knew the moment when such a man, who had always looked without any gaps with his sharp eyes, was gently relaxed. He had such a face that could only be seen in front of her master. Belluna thought quietly as she nodded her head.

'He's always going to be like that in front of Master.'

The Sarah she knew was like that from a long time ago. She always put people's minds at ease and made them realize for the first time in their lives that they were capable of being childish. Even though Sarah was hiding her appearance and voice, it was so vivid that she could feel that she cared and loved her very much. Moreover, in Ambrosia, her master was showing her face. She was more kind and caring than when she was in the magic tower. It was very natural to be disarmed in front of such a master.

'But it's subtly annoying.'

It was the Duke of Ambrosia who was collecting Belluna and Benjamin because they were useful now, but before that, he looked at them as if he were looking at the garbage to be removed very soon. And the vaguely reflected boundaries in his eyes, apparently because they were dangerous, seemed to contain other meanings as well. So Belluna spoke to Ethan in a significant mood.

"Do you intend to keep Master's true identity a secret until the end?"

When asked by Belluna, Ethan opened his closed eyes and looked at her. Looking at Ethan squinting as if to gauge the intent of the question, Belluna added a back remark.

"Do you not know who caused the Alton Estate's incident? As long as Master comes forward, we will not be able to hide it forever."

At Belluna's words, Ethan secretly narrowed his brow. Just imagining that Sarah's true identity was revealed to the nobles gave him a headache. Even if it wasn't, dealing with the Emperor who was wary of Ambrosia's power was about to become annoying.

'There's no prospective bride like Countess Millen. Why don't you invite the princes to your mansion often, Duke Ambrosia.'

'The Knight Commander of the Imperial Knights is yet to be married, but he is a very tall and young genius among the geniuses who rose to the position of leader. Isn't it perfect for him to be about the same age as Countess Millen?'

Whenever the Emperor made eye contact with Ethan, he tried to tie Sarah up with his people somehow. It took a day or two to cut off the Emperor's snarky proposal. Moreover, the Emperor was not the only one who aimed at Sarah.

'How is Countess Millen? I'm worried because she hasn't shown up since the last banquet.'

'Last time I sent an invitation to Duke Ambrosia's family, but there was no reply. Please send Countess Millen my regards on my behalf.'

'I still can't forget the dance we had together at the last banquet. The smile that Countess Millen showed......'

Whenever the aristocratic young men who encountered him mentioned Sarah and made enthusiastic faces, he suffered the urge to get rid of them from the Empire. In this situation, if it were known that Sarah was a magician and the head of the magic tower, they would do everything possible to lure her out in earnest. Just imagining it made his teeth grind and tremble.
