Chapter 36. Big dog, little dog2020.06.06.
“Good night, Your Majesty.”
“Sleep well, all of you.”
I closed my eyes and the nanny kissed my cheek, covered me with the blanket, and went out. Kongdak Kongdak. I could only hear my heart beating in the dark. I passed the time quietly, staring at the hazy ceiling.
‘hmm. What should I do?’
She still hadn’t decided what to do with the note from Aidan. I thought about showing it to Lisandro for about 0.1 seconds, but quickly gave up.
‘You can’t find out that you can read. Even if you just pretend to have received the note, it’s impossible to explain how you got it.’
People who have many secrets in many ways have many difficulties.
“Ehh.”
It was a night where only sighs deepened. After waking up through the night, dawn came quickly. After thinking about it, I decided to go out for a while.
‘If they were going to kill me, they would have already.’
I slipped the covers off and stretched them out as if someone was lying on them with a pillow in case Lisandro or the nanny came in.
“I like it.” (I liked it.)
After stealing a sweat for no reason, I walked stealthily toward the balcony. Kik-. After opening the door excitedly, he stuck his head out. But looking around, I saw no one.
“Objjana?
” Boop! I heard the cries of owls looking for prey. It seems that the message was meaningless.
“I’m sorry. … yes?”
As I stomped my feet and tried to enter the road, something caught my eye.
“Pocket?” (pocket?)
There was a pocket in the corner. When I inadvertently picked it up, I heard a jingling sound with a heavy feeling.
‘… jingle jingle?’
Suddenly, my heart started beating like crazy. Is jingle jingle really what I thought? As soon as I opened the pocket, I saw… gold coins and jewels!
“Huup!”
I was startled and closed the pocket. I felt like I was seeing something I shouldn’t have seen.
‘Is it fake?’
Gathering up courage, he carefully opened the pouch again. Brilliant gold coins and jewels greeted me with a shy smile.
‘what. My type.’
If this was a real gift, it couldn’t have been more perfect. money. Gold. jewel. Property that can be used at any time, not stolen property! I looked around again, just in case, but no one was there. I slipped my pockets into the room, hung over the balcony railing, and looked around. But all you can see is the very dark floor.
‘no way. Let’s just go in and sleep.’
It was the moment when he let go of the railing with a small yawn. slippery-.
“Ugh?”
In an instant, I lost my balance and fell down the railing. What would come to mind of the last scene from the previous life then? The difference between then and now is that I want to live now.
‘I don’t want to die!’
It was the time when I was falling with my eyes closed tightly. prison-. He was quickly embraced in a warm embrace.
“What the hell is this… what the hell are you doing at dawn, Your Majesty?”
When I carefully opened my eyes, I saw Lisandro in a cold sweat. I was so surprised that I could hear Lisandro’s heart beating.
“If I hadn’t been there, you would have been seriously hurt.”
“…God bless Lisanduro.”
I had nothing to say, so I lowered my head and apologized. If it wasn’t for Lisandro, I would have been really down. With a small sigh, Lisandro fixed me and hugged me.
“So what were you doing when you weren’t sleeping?”
“Four best!” (Four walks!)
“Hmm….”
Lisandro stared at me suspiciously. I felt like I was breaking out in a cold sweat for some reason, so I laughed desperately.
“lol.”
“…Ugh. That’s it. It’s okay because you weren’t hurt. I’m so cute I can’t scold you.”
Fortunately, Lisandro stopped questioning me. He took me in his arms and leaped lightly to the balcony railing. Lisandro, who was about to drop me off on the balcony, hesitated.
“…?”
As I tilted my head, Lisandro sighed again.
“I can’t be too anxious. I will take you inside and go.”
After hugging me again, Lisandro finally entered the bedroom, put me on the bed, and covered me with the blanket before taking a step back.
“You have to hold Xavier or Larimar’s hand for a walk during the day. Did you know?”
“Ugh…”
I couldn’t treat Lisandro as bluntly as usual because I had a sin. Lisandro smiled a little, wondering if that was so funny.
“His sullen majesty is also cute. haha.”
“…joy.”
“Ahaha.”
I glared at Lisandro, who was teasing me, and he smiled cheerfully. But even that, with a face that only smiled for a moment, straightened my hair. He greeted the night in a low voice.
“Good night, Your Majesty.”
“Risandurodu.”
As the door closed, silence fell again. After a while I got out of bed and returned with the pouch I had tucked inside the door earlier.
“Kuraeso… Does this mean no order?”
jingle jingle. Precious gold and jewels that make a clear and cheerful sound. I felt healed just by listening to it.
“Gogechi sent by Aidan.
” If so, there was no reason for me to refuse. I chuckled and put my pockets neatly in a drawer in the most inconspicuous corner of the bedroom. It was probably safe because the place was not cleaned well. Suddenly becoming rich, I thought I would be able to sleep well tonight.
‘Just give and take away. Don’t leave me alone.’

There was a large bathtub in the bathroom, which was too spacious for me to use alone. But it was too deep for me to get in. I used a small baby tub. A sweet scent wafted in the air, and I involuntarily let out a languid sigh. It was hot and exhausting.
“Aww, Your Majesty. You’re also very modest.”
“I like to take a bath.”
“Be dignified.”
How soft was the nanny’s hand washing her hair. The ladies-in-waiting saw me like that and gave a storm of praise.
“Your Majesty is the first person to take a bath without bursting into tears like this.”
“that’s right. How loudly does Elise, the youngest in our family, cry. When it’s time to take a bath, I can hear the cries in my room?”
“Originally, all kids of this age are like that. Your Majesty is amazing.”
‘Oops. Embarrass me…’
I was just happy to be able to soak myself in a bathtub full of warm water without having to worry about water bills and gas bills, but I became a great person.
‘Because having a bathtub at home is a big deal.’
In the Banjihana rooftop room where I lived, I couldn’t even dream of a bathroom with a bathtub. At the house I was moving to this time, I would pray earnestly that there would be no condensation in the bathroom. The nanny said to me without a moment to be bitter.
“ruler. Shall we close our eyes? That’s right, nice~.”
“Ubu-boop.”
“I’m done washing my face. You did well, whoops.”
I just finished washing my face, but the ladies-in-waiting continued to praise her again.
“How can your Majesty be so dignified when you wash your face so well?”
“Cute, lovable, smart, and even cool!”
“How. Look at the red cheeks…!”
“So cute!”
‘Ahh…!’
The twenty-year-old soul inside me screamed. I tried to be as quiet as possible to end this embarrassing bath as quickly as possible, but that caused another big upset.
“You are so calm and so proud!”
“Your calm majesty is cute…!”
“Stop it…!
” I changed into new clothes, dried my damp hair, and lay down on the bed clean, clear, and confident.
“iced coffee. Jota.”
I was really happy with this drowsiness of not having to worry about waking up early tomorrow.
“your majesty. I’ll be out for a while, so play with this.”
“yes. Alas.”
It was a time when I was rolling around on the bed, fiddling with the doll my nanny gave me.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, something hard pricked my back painfully. Startled, I jumped up.
“This is all.”
A stone the size of my fist was placed on the bed. I hugged the doll tightly and examined the stones carefully. There was nothing special about it except that it was a pure white stone without a single spot.
“who is this. Ingani, who has a lot of stones here.” (Who is it? The person who brought the stones here.)
Among the attendants, there is no one like that. Displeased, he reached out his hand toward the stone. And when the fingertips touch the tip of the stone-.
[Give me…]
“…huh?”
Suddenly, someone’s voice passed through my head. what? Before I panicked, something even more unbelievable happened. Aaah-! Blinding white light exploded from the stone as if it were exploding, and it permeated through the fingertips that touched it in an instant.
“…!”
Surprised, I looked where the stone had been, but there was nothing.
“Mother.”
I fumbled on the blanket to see if a stone had rolled, but there was none.
‘The stone was absorbed by me.’
Wasn’t it just a stone? I checked my body with anxiety, but nothing had changed. I didn’t feel dizzy or sick, and I didn’t feel strange. There was one thing that made it difficult to dismiss it as nothing special. The voice I heard the moment I touched the stone.
[Give me…]
‘Who the hell are you?’
***
As soon as he saw me, Yang suddenly stopped walking.
[Mabel… What is it?]
“Uh-huh?”
[The divine power has increased. Quite a lot.]
‘Is that because of that?’
I frowned and sat down beside the sheep. Then, as if I had waited, my animal friends came and surrounded me.
[Mabel. It smells good.]
[It feels good. Moya moya?]
Originally, they were animal friends who liked to be around me, but today they were severe. I looked at the sheep while stroking Toto, who was rubbing his hair in my hand.
‘Even if it’s not the case, I’m here because of this.’
[Have you received a revelation from God? Why did it grow like this?]
‘Why is there a stone on the bed? So I touched it and it was absorbed as it was.’
[rock? …a holy relic?]
The sheep’s tail slammed the floor. It was somehow serious.
‘I don’t know why it was there either. But isn’t it bad if the divine power increases?’
[Nothing bad. It’s just that the latent divine power within Mabel was released anyway.]
That means it’s not dangerous. I was relieved by that.
‘And I’m curious about something else. I heard a voice.’
[Voice?]
‘Yes. The moment it touches the stone.’
[What did he say?]
‘I thought he was asking for something…’
His voice was so muffled that I couldn’t hear it properly. Like a radio full of noise.
[I don’t know either.]
Yang shook her head. suddenly got stuck
‘The only divine number I could ask was the sheep.’
So the identity of the voice fell into question.

Dinner time with Oscar and Hwang Sang-je. I took my seat with a pounding heart. Of course, even the baby bib was tight.
‘Eat something delicious.’
I was waiting for the food to be served, but Oscar, sitting across from me, tilted his head.
“Mabel. Why are you in such a good mood?”
“Drinking snow.” (Delicious food.)
“Because you ate something delicious?”
“yes.”
Of course, the meals that are usually served are delicious, but they still taste a bit boring. On the other hand, the meals served at dinner were more light. It was a time when they were even enjoying the time they had waiting for their meal to be served.
“Why are you so slow at preparing meals?”
Hwang Sangje, who had been looking at me with his chin resting on his chin, suddenly began to exude a chill. I opened my eyes wide.
‘What’s wrong?’
The reason soon became clear.
“I can’t stand by, you dare make my Mabel wait like this.”
‘Let’s try sitting down…’
I couldn’t bear to raise my head because I was the cause of the sudden atmosphere. Unsurprisingly, the unexpected anger of the situation system caused a stir in the kitchen. those people are innocent all my sins
‘Ehh.’
I hit the table hard. bean!
“Puhang Kuromon doesn’t stand up!” (Father can’t do that!)
“…Mabel?”
“The wait is so cheap. (Wait is also a meal. You have to know how to wait!) Hwang Sang-
jae looked at me with a face stained with shock.
“Mabel. This…”
“My luck is ugly.” (The excuse is ugly.)
“…”
“You say you’re mean. Puhang is pretty good at it.” (Say sorry quickly. Father was wrong.) Sang Hwang
looked at me with sad eyes like a puppy caught in the rain, but I pretended to put on a stern expression. After a while.
“…sorry.”
“omg!”
“…Huh!”
Hwang Sang-jae’s apology shocked the kitchen workers. Either way, Hwang Hwang Je’s gaze was directed only at me.
“Is it okay Mabel?”
“yes. Do a good job.”
When he pretended to stroke Hwang Sang-je, who was far away, his expression suddenly brightened. I looked at Hwang Hwang Je and Oscar as if they were the same. The eyes that were only directed at me were bright as if they were looking for something.
‘A big dog next to a small dog in front.’
There is no such thing as a puppy rich.
