Chapter 3

The theme of the story at dinner was the Knights that appeared in the village.

This is a rural village far from the capital.

It is such a place where one never have seen the knights of the Imperial Palace.

But in this small rural village, the Knights of the Imperial Palace appeared.

Appearing in pure white armor and wearing golden-decorated helmets, they appeared in elegant and fine horses, and became the main characters of the rumour at once.

There’s nothing to talk about in this rural village.

At best, it’s a place where there’s nothing more to talk about than who’s married and who’s had a baby.

“But why were the knights stationed near the village, Mom?”

While eating bread with soup, the aunt’s first daughter, Anna looked curiously at her.

“I don’t know. How do I know that?”

“Didn’t the other ladies at the grocery store tell you about it? So many knights camped near town?”

“Everyone was curious, but no one knew why.”

“The Knights of the Imperial Palace…Wonderful….”

The second daughter, Mina, opened her eyes in ecstasy.

“I’ve never seen a knight up close. So do you, Mom.”

The Knights of the Imperial Palace cannot be looked on their faces unless they are aristocrats.

No matter how low-level a knight may be, it is still the child of nobility.

Those who are ordinary citizens cannot even dare to see their faces.

“How can we see the knight up close on our position?”

Anna poked Mina on the ribs and opened her eyes.

“I wish I had been born a daughter of an aristocrat…If I had, I’d be eating gracefully under the fancy lamb chops instead of taking cheap bread from such a shabby table… Dancing with a great knight at the ball…”

The soup dripped from the piece of bread in Mina’s hands in delusion.

“I was born in this corner of the house, and I don’t think I’d have the chance”

Anna laughed at Mina to the fullest.

Although she is her sister, Anna resembles the aunt and Mina resembles the uncle.

The aunt is thick-skinned and has drooping cheeks, so everyone complains that she looks like a toad, but no one has a great story to tell such as her.

By comparison, the uncle was lean, skinny, tall, and handsome, but he had a weak personality that was tightly held by his wife except for gambling.

“Oh, why aren’t we rich…Why can’t we live in the capital city? Mom, can we move to the capital?”

“To go to the capital and do whatever and eat.”

The aunt, who had been eating until then said, “Don’t be presumptuous.”

Then, her uncle Miller, who was looking at them gently, helped them.

“Don’t worry, girls. If I get a lot of money from the big board soon…”

“Just go to the gambling table one more time! I’ll break my leg then, so take care of it!”

The aunt shouted violently, as soon as the uncle brought it up.

“You still don’t know that you’ve lost all your money on the gambling table?! With that money, we could have lived proudly in the capital by now!”

The thought of what she said made her angry, the hand that held a fork shook and shouted.

Sigmund may stay by Adele’s side and leave like wild geese. 2

When Sigmund leaves, Adele will be very lonely.

Now Adele has two thoughts.

The desire to go to the place where Sigmund lived, where there are beings that resemble him, and to live together forever without going anywhere.

“I’d like to give Adele a present. The sparkle is shiny with glittering.”

Adele knows what Sigmund says is a jewel.

Sigmund’s cuteness to give a gift even if it’s a sparkle because it’s impossible to get a jewel has already transcended the world.

Sigmund’s face was so cute that Adele shook her shoulders.

And answered with a happy smile.

“I’ll look forward to it.”
