The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Chapter 106

“I was shell shocked! Why are you cheering all of a sudden, miss?”

The appearance of the nanny calmed me down. Should I call it the feeling of suddenly returning to reality? However, the thrill of finding the answer was still not forgotten.

“Um, that’s! Uh… um, I suddenly thought of a dress!”

“A dress? But you said you would try it on in the evening.”

“Yeah, I did! But there was one that was particularly pretty among the ones I picked yesterday. Reminds me of that, haha. Nanny! Let’s go look at the clothes.”

“…Yes, Miss.”

Fortunately, my clumsy excuse seemed to work. After all, humans are animals whose moods change constantly, even with small things. Young children are even more so.

“You’re a little weird today…”

Oh, could it be? My excuse didn’t work? The nanny’s words made me shiver.

Buried in the newly arrived dresses, I thought, ‘Alice will become the best fairy summoner in the Empire in the future.’

Summoning fairies was a very special talent. Among the nobles, the Duchy of Rose – Alice’s family – was the only one. That’s why the empire highly valued their talent. Iironically, because of that, Alice is now being rejected by her family. Unlike her family, Alice was considered not gifted, but that wasn’t true.

Alice was simply born with suppressed abilities. After the gates of her ability opened, her talent would grow rapidly.

‘And I know the secret to growing that talent. Thanks to reading the original story.’

That is, eating the fruit from the fairy island.

‘Hmm, fairy island.’

In the original story, it is only after Alice becomes an adult that with the help of Nicholas, she goes to Fairy Island to eat the fruit. Not just anyone can go to the Fairy Island because even the location is kept secret. But there was a hidden setting that came out of that part, and that was it.

‘Actually, the fruit of the fairy is in abundance on the continent. It’s just the shape… is too… no, it’s pretty bizarre and the taste is weird. Who would think to eat it for food?’

It is said that the fruit of the fairy grows here as well. In fact, when I read the story, I was a little surprised because the fact that the fruit of the fairy was found in abundance broke the preconceived notion that things with good effects would be rare. Of course, the fruit was treated worse than any other weed here, and it was called the ‘cursed fruit’.

“Hmm…”

At this point, another problem arose. I sighed..

‘Even if I bring that fruit to Alice…’

“Will it be okay?” I murmured.

I was standing in front of the mirror, the maids who took turns bringing new clothes to me, could hear what I said, which caused a misunderstanding. They all stopped.

“My Lady, did you just ask if it will be okay?”

“Why must you ask that? Of course it’ll be okay. You look like an angel no matter what you wear.”

They praised incessantly.

I was the type who easily blushed at compliments. I covered my face with both hands.

“Ahh! Stop! No more compliments!”

“Hoho, don’t you like compliments like that you’re an angel, my Lady?”

“Then how about this? Fairy?”

“Hahaha! It suits her so well. The Marquisate’s Little Fairy.”

It is human nature to want to do more if told not to. At the mischief of the maids, I blushed like a bright red tomato for a while.

“Okay, I’ll wear this. I’m going for a walk to the mountain wearing in this one.”

I picked a dress made of a coarse, tough cloth so that it would not be torn by being caught on a tree branch by any chance.

There was little decoration, but it was soft and comfortable.

“Oh my gosh, I thought I know what you like, but I don’t know.”

“Me too.”

As they changed the final chosen dress, the maids chattered one line at a time.

But I heard with one ear and flowed through the other.

My taste is not like this for a day or two.

“Did you suddenly feel a spring of energy? You said you’d take a nap, then get up, choose a dress, and go for a walk!”

“Hmm, I can feel the energy from inside me.”

I left the mansion exchanging jokes with the nanny.

Of course, there were also a few knights of the marquisate behind us.

‘I need to find the fairy fruit… they’re only going to get in the way.’

It was disappointing, but I couldn’t help it.

Safety is paramount, after all.

After the last kindergarten outdoor class incident, they were the knights with a strong standard.

‘But there is a way.’

When I finally arrived at the mountain behind the mansion, I pretended to go back and forth on the dirt floor.

Then the nanny was astonished. “No, miss! No matter how old you are, why are you playing with dirt that you never did……!”

“I am six years old.”

I’m old enough to play with the dirt.

But the real purpose is different.

I waved my hands and spoke.

“And I’m not playing with dirt. I made a bet with my kindergarten friends.”

“…bet?”

The nanny asked in an absurd voice.

I know.

I know what I’m doing now is very ridiculous.

“Yes, bet. We bet who can pick up more acorns from the mountain behind the mansion.”

“Oh my God!”

At my words, the nanny stroked one of her head as if she was about to faint at any moment.

Seeing that, I felt a little sorry.

‘Even if it was a lie, was acorn a bit harsh?’

It is early summer now.

For an acorn to fall, it takes another half a year.

The acorns that fell last fall may have already become good prey for wild animals, or rotted as manure.

The nanny had a resigned face, presumably foreshadowing that this walk would never end.

“What’s wrong, nanny?”

I pretended not to know.

The nanny answered.

“It’s nothing, miss. Pick up acorns. Yes, of course. You pick it up.”
