Misi

The next morning, Kettie returned with a tray of rice porridge.

"Ding... host, you have a mission," said the system that suddenly appeared in front of Xerion.

"Read the mission," Xerion whispered only he and the system could hear.

The system also reads out the missions written on the system screen.

[Mission]

[Task: Dine with the original Xerion family.]

[Reward: 7 magic towers.]

[Penalty: Failed to catch a cold for 7 consecutive days.]

'****! How can there be a forced mission!' Xerion snapped. Turning towards Kettie, Xerion then spoke up.

"Kettie, can you take me to the table..." Xerion whispered with a grim expression on his face.

The first step is to complete the mission. 'Heh, my acting is the best. It even deserves 12 Oscars in a row,' thought Xerion proudly.

"B..but lady, you will get ..." answered Kettie softly unable to continue her speech, afraid that she would be hurt.

'Just have to wait another 2 months, then I'll get that lady out of here,' thought Kettie, clenching her fists.

He will love and care for his woman with all his heart, like the lady who used to love and love him. He already thought of her as his own sister. It's impossible to leave it here right? Except he doesn't have a heart.

"Help Kettie," Xerion pleaded as he turned to Kettie. Beads of clear liquid flowed from Xerion's bandaged eyelids.

"Okay, Miss," said Kettie. It was lady's wish, didn't she promise to do something? Even sacrificing himself and making a pact with the devil?

A calm smile that was able to calm the heart appeared from the corner of Xerion's lips. Kettie who saw it smiled helplessly inwardly.

"But before that. Lady has to change into fancy clothes," said Kettie walking to a closet full of worn dresses.

"No, there's no need to wear fancy dresses just to eat," Xerion said quickly. Kate stopped.

"Lady, if you really want to enter the dining room. Then you must obey me this time," said Kettie without objection.

'Hufft, troublesome,' thought Xerion resignedly. Kettie smiled and picked up a dress that seemed to fit the lady being served.

A few moments passed, Kettie dressed Xerion.

'I really can't see it. But I find this dress very heavy,' Xerion groaned inwardly.

'How can this age be so troublesome. Luckily there was a waiter. If not, it might be troublesome,' Xerion continued to himself.

"Okay lady, we're done. Come with me to the dining room," said Kettie as she led her madam by holding her hand and walking towards her destination.

Xerion nodded, walking led. Counting every step, second and measure to be able to imagine the plan of this big house.

He didn't see it, but he knew. Yes of course he knew, because the real Xerion was told.

"We're here, lady," Kettie said to her mistress.

Krieett

The sound of the door opening, signaling that what Kettie said was true.

Along the way. Xerion felt many gazes of disdain, dislike, envy and hatred. No mercy or anything like that.

"Thank you, Kettie," Xerion said sincerely. The admiration is undeniable. In all centuries, finding a sincere person has been difficult.

"You're welcome, let me walk you to your table," said Kettie happily. Finally the lady began to change. Yesterday, he felt that the lady he served had changed a bit and even then that feeling was uncertain.

But now, Kettie saw it for herself. the lady has changed. Not like the previous lady. Always cheerful and enduring pain, there are only women who are quiet and graceful.

'Hopefully Miss changes for the better,' thought Kettie hopefully.

'Let me guess, they must be looking at me with scornful and disapproving eyes,' Xerion thought smiling in his mind.

A voice of disappointment sounded from in front of Xerion. "Why is a crippled girl like you in this dining room?" said someone in a heavy tone that could be ascertained that it was a man.

"System, who is it?" Xerion whispered to the system.

"Ding... he is the father of the original Xerion, his face is still quite handsome even though he is old. His name is Jeroy Cavelian De Prescent, Duke Prescent," replied the system.

'That girl didn't say that I should treat her family gently. So, I can treat them however I want right? Let's make them regret it. Because I like to feel or see other people's regrets,' Xerion thought smiling.

"I just want to remember who my family is. Why didn't they come when I was sick? Why didn't they support me," Xerion replied to the man called the father.

Laughter echoed, sarcastic and mocking laughter.

"Since you were blind, no one has ever been your family. No one even wants to be your family," said someone whose voice sounded like an aged woman.

"That woman is Yveliana Bern De Prescent. The wife of Duke Prescent. The real mother of Xerion," replied the system without being asked.

Xerion nodded at the system's words. But it's different with Yveliana who considers it a mockery.

Pragg ... .

A glass float hit the face of a girl who was none other than Xerion. It's not like Xerion can dodge. however, Xerion didn't want to. Keep that in mind, DON'T WANT.

Why don't you want to? The answer is only one. Xerion wanted to make them feel more remorse. More and more wounds on Xerion's body. The greater their regret.

Tess tess ... .

Warm and fresh blood flowed from Xerion's face. 'Ah, it looks like it's bleeding. It hurts, but it's not much,' Xerion thought casually.

Meanwhile, Kettie was shocked. His eyes widened at the lady's face being served. Looking towards the Xerion family. No one was worried. Even looks happy.

"Lady!" Kettie exclaimed in surprise. Luckily Kettie had a handkerchief. So Kettie could wipe her lady's face and remove any remaining shards of glass.

"Thank you Kettie," Xerion said with a genuine smile despite the pain on his face.

Kate was crying. Can't stop thinking about the lady this girl serves. He was able to smile even when he was hurt.

"Don't smile, miss! You're hurt, you should be complaining about pain. Not smiling," said Kettie with 18th century thinking.

Instantly, pain and restlessness arose in the Xerion family's hearts. "You're wrong Kettie. We have to smile even when we're sick. Hide the pain and keep smiling. That's the meaning of Adulthood," Xerion explained gently.

'Ah, I'm getting more and more impatient waiting for their look of regret.' A bubbling curiosity rose in Xerion's heart. But Xerion was able to withstand it.
