Chapter 40: Malicious Man Vs Little Girl 1
Translator: Masakibluei
Without a delay, I lead Sauvell and rush in to see Isabella.
Ellen: “Grandma-!!”
I take Sauvell’s hand and return the previous room to see Isabella. Isabella at the moment is still buried in the pile of fabrics and busily chatting with the merchants. When we come in, we are greeted with their surprised faces.
Isabella: “Oh……OHMY!! Is that Sauvell!?”
Sauvell: “Ehm,……Mother……”
Isabella: “What happened?! You have become even more handsome!”
Ellen: “He is, isn’t he? It’s hard to recognize Uncle Sauvell while he looks like this. He looks like an entirely different person.”
I hold his hand tightly in order to keep him from running away. Isabella smiles happily when she sees our interaction and says, “Oh my. Now you have become really close, huh.”
Rovel: “I won’t accept this! Being close with Ellen and holding hands with her………Damn it. I’m so jealous………!!”
Father is barely able to hold himself and grinding his teeth out of vexation in the corner. Although I am able to see him with a fleeting glance, I continue to ignore him. Sauvell seems troubled to be at the receiving end of my services. However, he keeps staying by my side while making a wry smile.
Ellen: “Grandma, why won’t you use this occasion to order some new clothes for Uncle Sauvell too?”
Isabella: “Oh my! That’s a good idea!!”
For some unknown reason, I feel like seeing a black aura coming from Isabella when she cheerfully says to Sauvell,” Sauvell, now please come over here.” Sauvell who seems to see it too, is hauled by Isabella while trembling in fear.
He will experience the same thing as I did before. Everything has worked out well as my plan. Then I secretly chuckle to myself.
________________________________________________________________________________
Time has passed for a while after I brought Sauvell to Isabella. Up until now, Sauvell has not been released by Isabella. Thus, I spend some relaxing time with Father while enjoying tea which is brewed by Lawrence.
Rovel: “Ellen, I think you should hold hand with Father!!”
I take back my previous words. At the moment, I am trapped with Father who is still sulking about me and Sauvell’s holding hands. It’s extremely tiresome to deal with him.
Ellen: “I think I have always hold hands with Esteem Father!!”
Rovel: “No! It’s not enough!!”
As he says that, he tightly embraces me into his arm. This act of him makes me feel disgusted.
Ellen: “Are you jealous of Uncle Sauvell? Then, do you want me to give you the same service too?”
Rovel: “…………No, I’m fine.”
In the corner of the room, the make up staff are holding the beauty tools with sparkles on their eyes. Father seems to notice their sparkling gazes at him. However, a moment later Isabella calls for the make up staff and they exit the room. In the end, the only one left in the room are only me and Father.
Rovel: “Why are you doing this to Sauvell? “
Ellen: “If he becomes much cooler, she will be unsettled.”
Rovel: “E?”
Ellen: “I’m talking about Aunt Aria. In this way, she won’t have any leisure time to look at other men. “
Rovel: “…………no way……you think about Sauvell that far?”
Ellen: “Yes. Actually, I thought it will be nice if everyone can have a new view of Uncle Sauvell.”
Rovel: “E……?”
Ellen: “This is only between us, perhaps the Goddess’s condemnation for Aunt Aria was not done half-heartedly by the Twin Goddess……Aunt Aria maybe about Esteem Father……”
Rovel: “No matter what anyone says, for me, it’s only Ellen and Ori. That definitely won’t change. From now on, I won’t see Aria. Frankly speaking, I don’t want to see her. Even if she says that she wants to see me, I will firmly refuse her.”
Ellen: “I understand.”
It seems that Father views Aria in the same way as he views Agriel. Even with this, he forwardly shows his antipathy and this makes me smile. I feel happy because I can feel Father’s genuine love for us from his words. I feel relief in Father’s embrace. I place my head on his neck and act spoiled which makes Father so happy. In return, he lovingly caresses my head.
Ellen: “And then…Father, will you be mad at me for this?”
Rovel: “For what? What happened?”
Ellen: “……I prayed that Uncle Sauvell will get his happiness. “
Rovel: “Hmm.”
Ellen: “………then I heard a voice saying, ‘Leave it to me!’”
Rovel: “………E?”
I can’t stand Father’s fixate gaze at me, so I turn my face to the other way.
Rovel: “A-, Ellen. Whose voice was that-?”
Ellen: “………It might be Older sister Vol……”
Both parent and child become silent for a moment.
Rovel: “Ellen, that means…”
Ellen: “………That means that Uncle Sauvell will be popular with women.”
Father turns his gaze up to the ceiling.

After that, there is a lot of commotion happened. When Sauvell shows his face for the first time to the knights, all his subordinates are shocked to the point that they drop their swords to the ground. All the knights have been trained to never drop their sword no matter what happens. In spite of that, Sauvell’s transformation shocks them to the core that they completely disregard their training. It does not take too much time for the news to spread out from the knights to the people in the dominion and eventually to the other nobles.
A few days later, Sauvell is struck by the increasing numbers of party invitations that he received.
________________________________________________________________________________
Some time passed after that, and now it’s the day to go to the palace.
Rovel: “A--------I don’t want to; I don’t want to………”
Ellen: “Esteem Father, it’s useless to keep complaining.”
Rovel: “Ellen, why are you looking like you are going to a war……?”
Ellen: “To be honest, even for only once, I want to have a direct conversation with that Malicious man.”
Rovel: “What’s with you being so excited like that……I can only have a dreadful premonition……”
As he says that, Father carries me on his arms and sets out to the palace. When we pass by the soldiers who are watching by the gates, a lot of people are gathering with a dumbfounded look on their faces as they see us. Father’s reputation as the hero has always caused such commotion, but today is even more because he is carrying a child with him to go into the palace.
Because of Agriel, the Vankriff family has declined any contact with the Royal family. As a result, a lot of people in the palace are making an uproar about ‘What is going on?’ about this situation.
A personal guard leads us the way into a guest room where Lafissel has been waiting.
Lafissel: “Ah, I have been waiting for you, Rovel. And also, you, little princess.”
As he smiles at me, I also smile and greet him back with the courtesy of a noble lady after I am being put down by Father from his arms.
Ellen: “Nice to meet you, Your Majesty. I am Rovel’s daughter, and my name is Ellen.”
Lafissel: “Yes. I have heard about you from Albert. But you are extremely beautiful!”
When Lafissel sees my face, he becomes overjoyed and smiles broadly which makes me feel irritated. However, I hide my emotion and avoid to show it on my face. What kind of conclusion did he make after he saw my face? Is it important to him if I have a face that is similar to Father’s?
Lafissel: “I’m sorry that I call you out of the blue, Ellen. I had always wanted to meet you.”
Ellen: “Is that so?”
In spite of my smiling facial face, I do not utter any single words of being happy. When he sees my reaction, Lafissel opens his mouth again to speak.
Lafissel: “You are truly Rovel’s daughter. You are exactly like him.”
Ellen: “Let me humbly say, this comment makes your subject feel upset.”
Rovel: “Ellen!?”
