CH 88

There was nothing dangerous about that. Anyway, if we run, it’s still inside the mansion. There are no dog holes in the Grand Duke’s residence, and we just played together in a place out of sight of adults. Then get caught after a few hours.

It wasn’t such a big deal, but Kir liked just getting separated from the escort knights. Thanks to that, I also ran around and played.

Somehow I thought Kir was going up the stairs. The place we arrived at was a place that boasted a 100% escape chance. Kirr gave me a wink and then shouted.

“Run!”

I was still thinking about it, but I reflexively jumped at Kir’s cry. The handrails of the stairs here are quite thick and not too steep, so young children could ride the slide. Kir climbed the ledge first and rode the slide.

“Young Master Kirsec!”

When Knight Henry shouted at his sudden action, I also got on the stair railing in a hurry.

“Lady Aide?”

Even you, who believed in me! I felt sorry for Knight Henry who looked at me with that look, so I lowered my head slightly with an awkward smile and relaxed my hands. My body slid down with a thrilling feeling of floating. It’s fun because it’s been a long time. Kir, who went down first, supported me, so I landed safely.

Like that, the two of us were separated from Knight Henry in an instant. Soon Knight Henry will come down the stairs in haste. Kir gave a victorious mischievous laugh. I also agreed, oh, I don’t know. When you play, you should have fun. I also grabbed Kir’s outstretched hand and ran together.

“Stop running!”

I don’t know how far I ran. Was I still breathing through my nose? I was panting so much that I didn’t know how I was breathing. Then Kir stopped. The guy let out a heavy breath, probably overdoing it.

“It’s been a long time, so it’s hard. right?”

“Oh, it’s really hard.”

It made me want to pant with my tongue out like an animal suffering from thirst.

“We got away with it, though.”

I looked around without disturbing Kir’s proud mood. The place that was in my eye felt unfamiliar.

“Where are we?”

I went in and out of the Grand Duke’s residence frequently, but the routes I took were limited. It was limited to the places I usually use and the place where I play with Kir. I don’t even know what exactly is this place in this spacious mansion.

But somehow, the atmosphere here is a little different from other places. I followed Kir as he slowly started walking again, but the lights were dim this way. I felt a bit spooky. It seemed like it was a place that isn’t used often. The surroundings felt quiet.

“Come and see.”

Did he do it on purpose? He spoke in a lower voice than usual. It’s even more scary when Kir mutters. It’s not that I’m afraid of ghosts.

“Where is this?”

“Shh.”

Despite the small question, Kir signaled for me to be quiet. At this point, my heart was pounding. It was unusual for Kir to be this sensitive. I had been uncomfortable with it since we had separated from Knight Henry. It seems that Kir is going to have a big accident after a long time. I tried to stop Kir because I thought we would get into another strange problem.

“I’ll show you something good.”

But before that, Kir took something out of his arms. My eyes widened at the object in Kir’s hand.

The excessively yellow handle is pure gold, and the transparent jewel connected to that pure gold is elongated and irregularly bumpy at the tip. Taken together, that is a key. My curiosity soared when I saw the key that gave an unusual golden light and the transparency of the jewel. I swallowed a gulp.

“What is it?”

“The treasure trove key.”

Kir’s grinning face shone with a golden aura like a golden statue bathed in the morning sun. I was so nervous that I could hear the sound of saliva dripping loudly.

“A, a treasure trove. Was there anything like that?”

“Of course. Don’t you have something like that in our family?”

That’s right. It is strange that we don’t have it in our family. So, just piled up like a mountain of gold, a golden statue of a naked muscle man, and tons of art and jewelry, just like that?

My ecstatic delusion of discovering a mountain of gold came to me. It’s not mine in the first place, and it’s not like Kir is giving it to me.

But why does he have such a valuable key? If that was really the key to the treasure trove, it should be serious. I couldn’t understand why a young Kir would own such an important item. Because if it were me, I would never give that to Kir. Somehow, the ominousess came. Cold sweat ran down my back.

“How do you have the key to such an important place?”

“I stole it.”

“Are you crazy!”

Seeing his bright smile, I was so surprised that I screamed out loud. Then Kir came closer and stopped me.

“Shh, shh! Be quiet! If we get caught, we’ll get scolded.”

This would not end up just being scolded, I barely held it in. I was careless. I didn’t expect that Kir would do such a big thing as he had been quiet these days. Since he hasn’t been slapped recently, it seems that his thinking hasn’t gone back to normal!
