《TML? IDWH》chapter 27

"So you want to buy a new mansion? So that you do not make a mistake, it is better to turn to where I tell you."
Antares laughed slightly and translated the subject. And as if preparing in advance, he patted himself on his right breast a couple of times.
Luna, who could not understand his movements, looked at her right chest trying to understand what he was talking about, but Antares interrupted her and spoke.
"The contact information is in the inside pocket of my coat."
"... "
As a result, Luna carefully searched the inside pocket of Antares' coat. In his pocket she found a piece of paper with contact information, address and name.
"You will say that they will help you and me. "
"Won't you come with me?"
Luna asked mechanically, in his expression, it was clear that he would not go with her, but suddenly Antares looked at her, as if he had caught some important moment.
Realizing what she said, Luna tried to explain herself.
"No, if you don't want to go, you can stay in the mansion."
"I would like to, but this time I can't. I need to get back to the top. I haven't been there for a long time. And then we need to check our gold mine."
"Exactly, mine."
It seemed to Luna that for some time she had already forgotten about him. But thanks to Antares, all this time, she had more and more money.
If not for him, Luna was still puzzling over who to sell that much gold to.
When she remembered this, the balance, which was tossed between sympathy for Antares and anger, tipped in a positive direction.
She also thought that she should thank him.
"Thank you for everything."
"What are you talking about?"
"The mine, the carriage and this contact information ... Well, of course, except that you told everyone that we were meeting. But this is partly my mistake. This situation has grown so much that it has already become irreversible. If few people knew about it, it would be easy to "Resign" as my father did."
Luna, who was embarrassed about this, ended her expression of gratitude with a joke, but Antares looked at her carefully and did not even pay attention to it.

Nevertheless, Antares, who saw right through her, responded by straightening Luna's hair, which was slightly fluttering in the wind.
"A gold mine, too, was a good deal for me. She played a big role in my life. But this is not the most important thing, the main thing is that I was able to help you, so I still need to think about the Lady not wanting to break the contract with me."
"... huh."
"And besides, I should be grateful that I can annoy Fersen a little once again."
When he mentioned Fersen, his eyes sparkled strangely in the moonlight.
At first glance, it seemed that he was happy to imagine what would happen in the future, but on the other hand, it seemed that he was hiding something.
Because of this, Luna wanted to ask what he was feeling, but the conversation ended when she discovered that the Baron, along with the workers, were looking at them through the window.
They laughed awkwardly and entered the mansion.
* * *
Antares was very busy and quickly got ready before morning to get ready for the trip to Vincent's estate.
Breakfast is ready.
Antares's expression showed that he regretted his return.
Luna wanted to sleep a little longer because the party was over very late, but Emma and Laura woke her up to have it.
"Goodbye." Luna said, trying to suppress a yawn. All the family members accompanying Antares looked at her with a surprised expression.
"...What?"
'What should I have, as his girlfriend, shyly laugh and kiss on the cheek?'
I wanted to tell Luna to the people staring at her, but her drowsiness overcame her irritation.
"Nothing, we just thought that ..."
"We're just dating."
Luna answered without bewilderment.
"We are ashamed of you. The Baron spoiled you too much."
Emma said embarrassedly.
In response, Antares said sadly.
"It's OK. It's much better than pretending to be upset, don't judge Luna."
"... "
Thus, a soulless man was born who did not say a single kind word to his beloved who was leaving on a long journey.
Strongly tired yesterday, I felt that I was about to fall, but, fortunately, I had the strength to say a few words.

Luna put on a sad expression with all her might.
"Please take care of yourself. I hope to see you as soon as possible so that I can hear the stories of your childhood that I never heard last night. I was especially impressed by the story about your meetings with Fersen."
"... "
Antares said nothing, just smiled brightly.
"Soon I will follow you too. Hope there is something else interesting besides the gold mine, ha ha ha."
The Baron was enthusiastic. Unfortunately, there is nothing there but a gold mine, which in principle should be enough to restore the mansion, so he will not be disappointed.
"I will prepare the residence for the baron. "
"Thank you for that, but it will probably be very troublesome?"
"It's OK. You are our main client and the father of my beloved. I will do my best."
"Haha. How lucky that Luna met such a reliable person. "
"Father..."
In a battle of words, Luna confronted Antares and the Baron, who was not on her side.
Antares turned his gaze to Luna and asked:
"Is the lady planning to go with the baron?"
"I? No, I will stay here. Maybe I'll come to see the mine for a while, but I won't live there."
At first I thought that I would go with the baron, but there was no place more convenient than the capital. Now that I've dealt with Seira, everything will be fine.
Even if something happens, my father quit his job, so I can leave at any time if need be.
Confirming Luna's intention, Antares nodded and politely bid the Baron goodbye.
"Then go ahead."
At the end Antares said something to Royer, then he quickly got into the carriage and set off.
Royer, who was still in a sleepy state, said to Luna: "You are just a miracle."
The Baron's family, with the exception of Luna, was upset by Antares' departure.
'He is a good guy.... Even considering that he broke Fersen's leg and wanted to hit him with a stone.'
If you think about it a little, Antares was weird.
'... But maybe I was influenced by all these rumors around his person? He is very kind to me and my family.'
After thinking about it, Luna convinced herself that everything was fine.
'We must part in an amicable way.'
Luna thought.
It was clear that everyone would be surprised and overwhelmed if there was an annoying break with Antares.
Luna, who had a headache, headed for her room, leaving behind the Baron's men who watched Antares' crew disappear.
I need to get a good sleep first.
***
"What?! What have you done ?!"
Duke Rodrian turned to shouting asking for his butler.
The butler swallowed saliva and slowly opened his mouth again.
"... Lady Payles left the mansion with the Baron, hitting Fersen on the cheek. Mister Vincent was also with them. It seems that Lady Pales and Mr. Vincent are in a relationship ... "
(* Tink *)
Even before the butler finished his sentence, the Duke tossed down the glass of wine in his hand.
Fortunately, the debris hitting the wall did not hit the butler's eyes, but only scratched his cheek.
Nevertheless, the butler restrained himself and made no sound; he closed his mouth and bowed deeply.
"What were you doing at that time? Just stood silently to the side? And the knights? ... What was everyone doing while this little girl hit him in the face and soon disappeared along with the Baron !?"
"..."
The butler said nothing. After all, the knights obeyed only Fersen, who at that moment did not give any orders.
In addition, Fersen, upon learning of the relationship between Luna and Antares, fainted and was unable to say anything.
When the butler did not answer, the duke began to throw things at random. They were all expensive and valuable.
"What is Fersen doing !? Why shouldn't he come to explain himself and ask for forgiveness for such a shameful act!"
"...... He......"
The butler hesitated in a cold sweat. Fersen was now in a deranged state, so he did not know how to answer the duke.
As soon as the duke guessed about his son's condition, he headed to Fersen's room.
"...Sir!"
It was clear that a storm was coming if the angry duke confronted Fersen.
The butler, sighing heavily, hurriedly followed the duke, trying to stop him.
lYour Excellency! It's too late, you'd better go to bed and discuss everything tomorrow ..."
"Don't translate the topic!"
(*Slap in the face*)
The butler, with a swollen cheek, silently followed the duke. He realized that there was no way to convince the duke.
