Chapter 182

In front of everyone, Maya directly buried the stone that he had carefully wiped off the dust from.

The finishing work of covering the soil with a shovel and leveling the ground was done by others.

“Huh…… ?”

In fact, I didn’t expect big changes to happen right away as soon as the stones were buried.

But to our surprise, as soon as we picked the last piece of soil, the sharp wind that brushed our cheeks stopped.

“…… !”

“The wind has stopped!”

Perhaps the others felt it, too, and he murmured in a surprised voice.

It was still snowing in the sky, but once the wind stopped, it was surprising enough.

We returned to the mansion.

The nanny, who had been waiting for me, knitting in my room, asked me what I had been playing with that I looked so tired.

I just smiled slightly.

‘But I’m really tired…….’

Yawn.

I yawned a little.

Today was a very busy day.

It won’t be known until tomorrow whether I succeeded or not, but anyway, I acplished the purpose of my ing to the Duke’s territory here.

I worked all day long, looking at a dictionary of letters the size of an ant.

‘Um, I need to sleep first…….’

As soon as I lay down on the bed, my thoughts stopped and my eyes slowly closed.

The next morning.

I was woken up by the noise of the nanny and other children fussing.

‘…… huh? Aside from the nanny, why is everyone in my room?’

Everyone seemed to be looking at me and talking about something, but as I was not yet awake, it just seemed to be humming in my ear.

I rubbed my eyes roughly and woke up from bed, and only then did I know what everyone was talking about.

“Miss! God, look out the window. The weather turned like this overnight.”

“What? Is that true?”

I forgot to stretch and cried out in amazement.

It was Alice, not the nanny, who answered.

“Yes, that’s right. Miss Emir. I woke up in the morning and was amazed! Apparently the sky was all overcast and extremely cold yesterday morning, but now the sun is very bright!”

As if Alice was really surprised, she poured out her words in a rapid-fire cannon-like, unlike usual.

I hurriedly headed to the window and looked outside.

“…… Really?”

Yesterday, I just felt that the sharp wind had subsided.

But in a night, the Duke’s territory had changed a lot.

The sunlight, which had not been fully revealed, showed off its presence in the clear sky when the clouds disappeared.

I couldn’t see the snowflakes that were falling from the sky anymore.

When I opened the window, there was a gentle breeze blowing from outside, but it was originally a cool autumn breeze suitable for the season.

The white snow that had piled up was slowly melting.

“Oh my God.”

I was overjoyed, so I covered my mouth and froze on the spot.

I really did it.

No, I did it with the other children.

I could hardly look away from the scenery outside, but after a while I came to my senses and turned around.

There were other children watching me.

Cedric said with a mischievous laugh.

“We’ve all seen it before, Emir, are you the only one who saw it late? As expected, you are a deep sleeper.”

“…… I usually don’t sleep late.”

I snorted.

Then my eyes met Jake, who was staring at me.

Jake looked at me happily and smiled.

“I am happy because Mir smiles.”

“Thank you so much for your hard work yesterday, Jake.”

“…… What is that.”

Jake let out a shy voice.

We went to the dining room for lunch.

Everyone seems to have had breakfast already, but lunch turned into breakfast because I woke up late.

‘Yes? Why is it so full?’

I was surprised to see the meals served by the employee.

It was much fuller than when we came here on the first day.

I was bewildered, and the cooks of the mansion approached me.

“I heard what the young master said. Miss Emir found a way to save this Duke’s territory.”

Yes…… ?

Saying that makes me feel like I’m a great savior.

As I hesitated because I did not know what to say, they continued their words with expressions and voices that were very moved.

“The only thing we can do is food, so we put the utmost effort into making it. We will provide you with the best hospitality during your stay.”

Uh, somehow it became very burdensome.

…… is it alright?

I can only feel it now, but the eyes of the surrounding employees looking at me were unusual.

Why are you looking at me with so much affection and earnestness?

What in the world did you say about me, Maya?

‘I, I want to go home soon.’

It was a big deal because I was not used to this feeling.

Just as the meal was over, the butler suddenly appeared and whispered in Maya’s ear.

“…… !”

I don’t know what he said, but Maya was delighted when he heard that.
