[Episode 131]
‘Thank you…’
This is a word I hadn’t heard in particular while running the orphanage for quite some time.
Albion was well aware that he was not a very likable personality or a good teacher who took good care of the children.
I used to train my children rather harshly for their future.
Maybe that’s why I never really heard a thank you.
‘It must have been just self-satisfaction.’
Maybe the children were a little unhappy in my orphanage, I thought.
There must be some children who would have been better if they had lived freely under a more affectionate director.
“I don’t know what he’s thinking.”
Hill Rosemont, who was being forcibly dragged by Albion’s muttered words, stopped in shock.
It was because I couldn’t believe that I was quietly holding his hand and going as he led me.
“Where are you taking me?”
Hill Rosement asked stiffly. Albion stopped walking.
“house.”
“…a house.”
“What if you said honestly that you wanted me to be by your side…”
“What would be different if you said that?”
Hill Rosemont cut off Albion’s words. Albion quietly shut his mouth.
“A hypocrite who is more precious to strangers from that orphanage than to us, who have mixed blood anyway.”
“…it’s not hypocrisy.”
“It’s probably to alleviate guilt. Then can I express it with selfishness?”
Hill Rosemont broke and spat out sharp words. It was a way of speaking that only knew how to hurt people.
“Yes, that would be a more accurate expression.”
Albion replied calmly.
Hill Rosemont’s eyes widened slightly, then slowly narrowed.
“The orphanage is…”
Albion murmured slightly.
“The Etam family decided to take over and run it. They say they will find a good adoption place and support the study of children who need it.”
Albion said calmly.
Eirin suddenly appeared where Albion was last night. Maybe it was because he used his ability, but with his tail and wings dangling.
Then, while talking to Hill and Phil, he offered to run the orphanage on commission.
To be honest, it was a bit unbelievable. Since it was the job he started in the first place, he had no intention of entrusting it to anyone.
In addition, he was in a state of anger at Hill Rosemont’s terrible behavior.
I was thinking of going back to the orphanage and not contacting her anymore.
[There must have been a reason. People usually want to believe that no one is evil from the start.]
[…What he did went way too far.]
[I know, but… if there’s no one to tell you that it’s wrong, some people won’t know.]
[Even a three- or four-year-old child knows that killing a child, let alone a human being, is not allowed.]
Eirin, who was flying around in the air at Albion’s anger, laughed.
[Yes, I like the director’s conviction. But…]
[…]
[There really are people who don’t know unless they’re taught. And… there must be a reason.]
[There must be a reason for killing people…]
[ Mr.
]
[I’m not trying to protect the criminal, but anyway, this incident ended in misfire. how is it? I’m going to talk to Ms. Hill tomorrow, so why don’t you secretly come and listen?]
With an innocent face, the girl said something that was not at all innocent.
Albion shook his head, recalling a brief memory.
The reason Albion went there was to organize his thoughts one last time.
It was surprising that Phil Rosemont was there.
The story that the weak child killed my parents, and the fact that Hill Rosement took on the role of a villain to protect Phil Rosemont.
‘I wanted to take responsibility for the orphanage until the end…’
There is someone who needs him. If you can’t get your hands on both, it’s better to let go of what you have to give up.
“I lived without a family for a long time.”
Albion looked at Hill Rosemont and opened his mouth.
He wasn’t the ideal person as some people think. Relationships were clumsy and behavior was always awkward.
The only thing Albion is good at is that they always do their best.
“So he might not be the ideal…uncle you and Phil think he is.”
He spat out a little gibberish.
“I honestly don’t see anyone doing anything bad, so I might interfere more than necessary in the affairs of the two of you.”
“…What did you say earlier?”
“Of course, freedom will be respected, but there is a chance of giving advice on things that shouldn’t be done…”
The gibberish words that even Albion couldn’t organize properly.
“So…you might find it a nuisance later.”
At this point, the expression of Phil Rosemont, who had been quietly nodding his head and quietly listening to the conversation, became slightly meaningless.
“Even though I’m like this, I’m persistent, so I’m not the type to give up easily just because I find it annoying…”
“What…”
It was when Hill Rosemont was about to say something absurd again.
“Director, what did you come out to show?”
Eirin, who suddenly jumped out, looked up at Albion with a very absurd expression and said.
“Even if you come out to see the good, a man who recites only his own flaws is bad.”
Phil Rosemont nodded his head coldly, as if Eirin was right.
“Why is this…”
Albion narrowed his eyes while looking at Eirin.
“I’m going to go soon, but that’s because it’s still there. What are you doing here for 30 minutes?”
Albion kept his mouth shut.
“And I’ve only recently learned…”
Eirin sighed, crossing her arms.
“follow me.”
Erin shook her head.
“More than I thought.”
“I’m more than I thought…”
“Although I’m lacking a lot.”
“Not enough… I don’t think I’m lacking that much…”
Write!
As soon as I opened my eyes wide, Albion followed my words.
“It’s not enough, but…”
“Still, in the future.”
“But… from now on…”
“Please take good care of me.”
“Please take care of me…”
Albion’s eyes widened as he muttered.
“…do.”
“good job. Follow the two of them.”
I saw Hill and Phil. Phil nodded vigorously and clung to his brother’s arm.
Hill had a very unwilling expression.
“Please take care of me.”
“…Please take good care of me!”
Phil replied vigorously.
As Hill kept his mouth shut, Phil tugged slightly at the hem of Hill’s dress with a slightly gloomy expression on his face.
Seeing Phil’s tear-stained face, Hill Rosemont sighed in annoyance.
“Please take good care of me…”
Then he followed the words well.
‘It’s definitely a brother complex.’
Eirin thought and opened her mouth again.
“Uncle Albion.”
Phil Rosemont’s expression suddenly brightened at Eirin’s words, and Hill Rosemont’s face darkened.
Looking at the contrasting expression, Albion was also taken aback.
‘Why is Albion flustered?’
Eirin looked at the three with an absurd face.
“Uncle Albion…”
said Phil Rosement shyly,
“…the third Albion…three villages.”
Hill Rosement, who couldn’t overcome Phil Rosemont’s eyes and promptings, eventually opened her mouth.
Of course, there was a strange sound mixed in the middle.
‘These three also have a long way to go.’
The very old Eirin and Erno Etam might have felt exactly like this.
“Then I’ll organize the orphanage and send it to you.”
“Yes thank you…”
“It’s done.”
Hill Rosemont cut off Albion’s words. Eirin was also a little taken aback and narrowed her eyes.
“What…”
“The Rosemont family will take care of organizing the orphanage. 3…”
Hill Rosemont bit her lip.
“You may continue to operate it if you wish. Instead, the orphanage will be moved to the capital.”
“…”
“If you don’t want it, I’ll handle it just as Lady Eirin decided to handle it.”
Eirin and Albion looked at Hill Rosemont with very suspicious expressions.
“Don’t underestimate the Rosemont family I raised. I have that much money.”
“…Why all of a sudden.”
“I don’t care what you do, as long as your uncle doesn’t insist on going down to the country.”
Hill Rosemont strode away. Oddly enough, it seemed that her earlobes were slightly red.
Phil Rosemont widened his eyes and hurriedly followed Hill, smiling broadly.
“brother! let’s go together!”
Albion stared blankly at the two.
“Director.”
Albion lowered his gaze at my words.
“I’m not going?”
“Ah…”
He turned his head and saw that Hill and Phil were waiting for him, looking at Albion.
“…I have to go.”
“Don’t lose it this time.”
“…Yes, thank you.”
Albion moved away from Eirin in an instant with a large stride.
Eirin looked at the two of them quietly and then turned around.
“Let’s go see Daddy too, Laurent.”
“Your lady.”
Laurent smiled and was just about to go to his father’s office.
Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared in front of my eyes. It was a time when I closed my eyes tightly without realizing it.
Took Laurent collapsed on the floor, and Eirin opened her eyes wide in surprise.
“Laurent!”
“Let’s talk, baby!”
At the same time, someone appeared right in front of me smiling brightly.
It was Lucillion’s god ‘Arma’ with angelic wings that he saw in the black space where there were young tea smiles and gear wheels.
