"It's so dark, why are the lights off during the day?" Shelley

was confused as soon as he returned to his room, and as soon as he opened the door.

Isn't Lydia there? Where can she go......

"Who!?" a coquettish cry came from the corner behind the door, hurried and frightened.

As soon as he entered the room, Shelley dodged the dagger that had suddenly stabbed him, tilting his head to look at Lydia with a determined face.

"It's me, Miss Lydia. Hearing

the voice and figuring out who was coming, Lydia panicked all of a sudden, and wanted to kneel in front of Shelley, but Shelley hugged her directly and prevented her from kneeling.

"Ahh......h I'm sorry, I didn't mean to attack you, I thought it was the ......

" "It's okay, it's okay, you're safe." Picking

up the weeping girl and gently stroking her hair, Shelley analyzed the current situation in her heart:

"Obviously there is only a dagger in his hand, but there is still a ...... hidden in his chest

" "One attracts attention, and the other is ready to sneak attack, or ......

"...... Suicide?"

"It seems that she is ready to die and break the net, but I didn't expect that this is still a girl who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.

As he thought, Shelley's hand continued to unconsciously soothe Lydia, sliding incessantly.

"Ah~"

A moving voice pulled Shelley's consciousness back to reality, and he looked down at Lydia with a flushed face, and his fingers on her ears, slightly embarrassed.

But the long-term experience made him very calm, pretending not to hear anything, withdrawing his hand without a trace, and saying to her with a smile:

"Did you hear something?"

Seeing Shelley so calm, Lydia didn't know why she felt a trace of sourness in her heart, and lowered her head unwillingly.

"Lord Shelley, I must have been through a lot of these things, and heard a lot of these voices

......" "I'm just a mixed blood maid......"

"What's wrong?Lydia, are you not feeling well?" Shelley's concerned voice pulled Lydia's thoughts back to her body, and she hurriedly shook her head.

"I shouldn't have thought that of Lord Shelley...... He's so gentle!

" Shaking her head to shake her thoughts away, Lydia looked into Shelley's concerned gaze and whispered, "It's

okay...... Master, I heard the Bowen man arguing with someone else...... "I

was afraid he would rush in, so ...... I found the dagger in your room without permission, and I ask you to punish it.

Remembering her resolute feelings, Lydia bowed her head with tears in her eyes and begged for Shelley's forgiveness.

Whether it is attacking a nobleman or using the master's belongings privately, it is an unforgivable act for the maid!"

"No matter what the punishment is, I must endure it, even if it is ...... with my body

" "Lydia, please keep your head up.

Unfortunately, she did not wait for the imaginary punishment, and looked up tremblingly, only to see Shelley looking around the room.

Noticing her gaze, Shelley lowered his head, touched the maid's hair, and said softly:

"The house is very clean, the books are neatly arranged, and the most important thing is ......

" "I am very happy that there are people in the house." Originally

, Shelley was just trying to find a casual reason to comfort the maid, but after observing it, he made a new discovery.

The feeling in the room is really different!

Compared to the empty western-style building with strong contrast after returning from the banquet, it is now more like a place to live.

All the while, Shelley was lonely.

When I was young, I didn't enjoy the love of my parents, and there was no so-called brotherhood between the brothers and sisters of the nobility.

He is obviously in the mansion, but he is a dispensable existence.

Although he doesn't care about their emotions, it will make you feel cold and lonely in the end.

This bungalow is his cage.

He's the unlikable canary in it.

When he grew up, Shelley entered the social circle of the aristocracy, where the squalor and corruption were disgusting to him!

They are greeted with malicious eyes, greed, resentment, jealousy, and lewdness, ......

He was like a real canary, flying in a panic in a forest full of wild beasts.

It's like a never-ending masquerade ball, with all the masks on their faces and laughing wildly.

As for what the real expression under the mask is, they probably don't even know it.

In the past eighteen years, the only thing that has warmed him is his mentor Saliel, whose presence has diluted the fear of Shelley, who has crossed the border.

He has no bad Xi, he insists on justice and even a little pedantic, and he is gradually becoming nagging, but it makes Shelley feel extra real.

Saliel was like a father to Shelley.

And what is amazing is that the two women he met in the past two days made him feel novel.

A noble, charismatic and powerful, with the ability to kill him, unexpectedly made him discover the softness of his heart.

The other was too weak to make a disguise in front of him, and timidly curry favor with him, making him rise up to protect.

Gently hugging the overwhelmed Lydia, Shelley said softly

, "Don't worry, no one will blame you.

"If even women have to be pointed at for self-preservation, then the world will be over." "

Thank you for coming, I'm very happy. The

gentle voice was like honey slowly flowing into the ears of the two of them, and the gratitude without evil thoughts was more intoxicating than the sweet words with gorgeous words.

Could this be a trap? Should I escape?

Lydia didn't know, and she didn't want to figure it out now, she was too tired.

She hadn't rested well, and soon after she fell asleep, she was woken up by a loud quarrel, and before she could figure out the situation, she felt a familiar sense of crisis.

That feeling made her feel like she was in that home, and her half-brother looked at her.

Frightened and looking for all means to protect herself, she turned off the light and shrank behind the door, just as Bella had told her:

"Lydia, hide here, don't make a sound, don't come out!"

She finally felt the warmth by Shelley's side, and she didn't want to think about whether the warmth was real or fake.

Now she just wanted to feel the warmth more, and hugged Shelley's back with her backhand.

"Woo...... Wheeh......"

Feeling the sobbing of the man in his arms and clasping his hands hard, Shelley sighed silently and patted Lydia on the back.

, who finally recovered, didn't know what to say, but covered her face with a hesitation:

"Master...... I, I'm ......

" "Go wash up, go."

Not caring about her helplessness, Shelley gently asked her to tidy up, and watched her walk out of the room, his expression gradually converged, and he sighed in a low voice:

"Two half-elves, two beautiful women......

" He tapped the desk hard, gritted his teeth and said

, "Tsk,

slavery!" [Your tenderness towards the half-elves and anger at slavery

] [both make the half-elf queen happy]

[Natia Raiders: 43%]

"The increase is also slowly getting smaller, which is to be expected. Shelley

, who had done the show to her heart's content, gathered up her clothes and pulled out a ...... of a lady's gown from the deepest part of her closet

He said to Lydia, who had just entered the door and was about to speak

, "Put on this dress, and I'll go see the Duke." "

Ahh

............

hWhy do you have a lady's dress!!×2

The two half-elf ladies are extremely confused and confused, and they can't figure out what the situation is.

Could it be that he has a hobby of collecting these clothes???

looking at Lydia's shocked expression and the faint gaze behind her.

Shelley understands that if this matter is not clarified, it will not be able to pass today......

“...... This one, this is

......" "A noble lady ...... when I was thirteen

" Taking a deep breath, Shelley gritted his teeth and said,

"Give it to ...... My ......"

remembered the past ...... of mingling among the noble ladies in these lovely dresses, and letting the ladies dress up

Shelley's expression almost lost control, and he twitched slightly, and motioned with his eyes for Lydia to stop asking......

There are some things, you know, and there is no good

! Please, don't ask any more! There

was also a sister in the room!!

took a deep breath, and Shelley was about to divert the subject:

"Get ready, I'll take you with me to tonight's banquet." "

Come on, Miss Lydia.

Looking at the confused girl, Shelley's mentality adjusted, turned and walked out of the door.

When he reached the door, Shelley looked back at Lydia, who was still standing in place, and said with a smile

, "By the way, you don't need to worry about Bowen's affairs anymore, he will be sent to the Warrior Monk Monastery for a year."

"You are free to move around this house, and no one here will harm you.

"Hurry up, we don't have a lot of time. Looking

at the closed door, Lydia picked up the gown, which was too gorgeous to believe, and felt that it was all too sudden.

Pursing her lips, Lydia gently removed her clothes, exposing herself to the warm air of the room.

Looking at the slender body in the mirror that seemed to break if it was broken, there was a hint of pink in her fair skin, and she blushed and put on the dresses one by one.

Turning around, looking at the dress she had fantasized about wearing, Lydia touched the mirror and whispered to herself, "

Shelley...... What kind of person are you?"

"Why are you so good to me?".
