Chapter 11: Elder Sister's Resolve

「Elicia-sama, are you ok?」

「…..Yes, I've already skipped 2 days of cla.s.s, it's about time to come out…」

It's been 3 days since I received Redius' sword from Otou-sama. I was in such shock, from that day at noon to the very next day, and the next day after that, I took 2 full days of absence.

Clena explained the circ.u.mstances to the teachers, so it wasn't really a problem, but anymore than 2 days will start to negatively affect my schooling.

In truth, I really want to go search for Redius' body and perform a funeral for him, but apparently he died in a forest, so his body has most likely already been eaten by Magic Beasts, or so I've been told. Otou-sama already disinherited Redius before he left, so it had nothing to do with him, or so the letter said. (tf, f.u.c.k this guy)

「Elicia-sama, we've arrived at the cla.s.sroom. I'll take my leave here and wait with Kurena-san in the waiting room.」

While I was out of it, I guess we arrived at the cla.s.sroom door. After Mia said so, she departed. Attendants can only walk freely in the halls and within their master's rooms. It's a rule that, no matter your peerage, no one is allowed to bring their attendants into the cla.s.sroom.

「Fuu… Alright.」

Even though I still can't recover from the news of Redius, If I continue to be this unhappy, I'm sure he'd get mad at me, so I pull myself together and enter the cla.s.sroom.

「……She came.」

「I wonder if that rumor is true?」

「You, go confirm with her.」

When I enter the cla.s.sroom, my other cla.s.smates start looking at me and whispering something. What's this about? I try not to think about it and go to my seat. When I do so, 3 of the female cla.s.smates walk up to my seat as if they were waiting for that. If I remember correctly, all 3 of them are earls' maids.

「huh, Elicia-san, Are you fine already?」

「I really feel bad for you, your younger brother having died and all.」

「Even though it would have been ok not to force yourself to return to cla.s.s so soon.」

…..Is this a roundabout way to tell me not to come to cla.s.s? But, this kind of stuff is just a daily occurrence. It would be pointless to care about it.

「Yes, I'm fine already. Thank you for worrying.」

When I respond with a smile, the 3 of them get irritated and the atmosphere changes. I wonder why they have to be so hostile towards me, when I think like that…

「Which reminds me, your deceased younger brother was black-haired if I recall correctly」 (aw h.e.l.l nooo~ you picked the wrong ojou-sama to f.u.c.k with b.i.t.c.h)
