Mr. Ekenhart Was Awkward Around Ms. Claire
“Good morning, Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne. Sebastian.”
“Good morning, Mr. Takumi.”
“Good morning.”
“Mr. Takumi. Good morning.”
After washing up, I went to the dining hall along with Liza and Tilura.
Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne were already waiting there, and so we greeted them.
“Wuff-wuff.”
“And good morning to you as well, Leo. And you Liza.”
“Good…morning.”
“It looks like she’s still not used to being around people besides Mr. Takumi and Leo.”
“Yes. And Mr. Ekenhart, who was with us in town.”
As Leo had barked to greet them, Ms. Claire greeted her back.
However, Ms. Anne averted her gaze. It seemed that she was still a little scared.
And Liza was partially hidden behind me as she greeted Ms. Claire.
I suppose it was still a little overwhelming to be here.
Only, she was fine around Tilura, as they were a similar age.
As always, Mr. Ekenhart slept in and skipped breakfast.
Liza ate a lot of the food that Ms. Helena prepared, and looked very happy.
At one point, Leo even tried to make Liza eat some of her sausages.
It was a surprise that she would share something that she liked so much… Perhaps it was because she knew that Liza had rarely eaten anything good, and was quite underweight.
Everyone else watched this with a smile, and I was the only one who was surprised.
In the past, whenever I gave Leo sausages, she would always devour them quickly as if she was scared that someone would take them away.
So this showed how concerned she was about Liza.
Did she really see her like a daughter? Even if Liza was older…
“Morning! What fine weather!”
“Father. Everyone had already eaten breakfast. It’s a bit late for you to be commenting on the morning.”
“Uh, yes. Perhaps you’re right.”
As we relaxed and drank the tea that Ms. Lyra poured for us, the doors burst open and in walked Mr. Ekenhart.
For someone who was bad at getting up in the morning, he sure had a lot of energy.
Perhaps the lecture he received from Ms. Claire and Sebastian was not that long.
However, Ms. Claire seemed like she was still a little upset.
“Here you are, Your Grace.”
“Mmm.”
In spite looking a little awkward around Ms. Claire, he sat down at the table as Sebastian put a cup of tea in front of him.
He took a sip and then scanned the room.
“Now, Mr. Takumi. About the matter we were discussing yesterday. I have already relayed it to Claire and Sebastian. When shall we begin?”
“Yesterday… Ah, that’s right. Indeed. …It could be today?”
“Good. Sebastian.”
“Yes. We can be ready at any time.”
Mr. Ekenhart turned to me first and brought up what we had discussed yesterday.
At first, I didn’t know what he was talking about, but then I remembered.
I hadn’t thought about it much due to everything that happened with Liza. That was close.
The reason that Mr. Ekenhart didn’t say anything specific, was probably because Liza and Ms. Anne were here.
Neither of them knew about my Gift, Weed Cultivation.
Though, I think I had talked about making herbs in front of Ms. Anne before…but since I was concocting medicine, it would be easy to make excuses…I think.
“Papa. What are you going to do?”
“Hmm. We have a little plan. And so we must prepare and do some research.”
“Oh, I see.”
Liza seemed interested in what I was going to do.
But since Ms. Anne was here, I could not tell her the details, and so I just explained it vaguely.
As Ms. Claire already knew, she was nodding, but Ms. Anne looked puzzled.
“Ah, Milina.”
“Good morning, master. Uh, is that the child? Ms. Lyra told me about her.”
“Morning. Yes, this is Liza. Say hello, Liza.”
“Uh…it’s…nice to…meet you. I’m…Liza.”
“Hello. I’m Milina. It’s nice to meet you too. I am Mr. Takumi’s apprentice!”
After finishing my tea, I left the dining hall and then bumped into Milina in the hallway.
Tilura and Sherry had gone off to study, while Ms. Claire and Ms. Anne were talking in the drawing room.
While Milina was adult and older than Tilura, she was raised at the orphanage, and so she was much more approachable.
“Is something the matter, master?”
“Uh, indeed. It’s about the medicine. We’ll need more of it. For a while, we’ll need to drink the wine that is combined with it in order to confirm its effects.”
“I see. Ve-very well! Leave it to me!”
“Uh, yes. That’s what I wanted to do… If you are sure?”
“It’s a simple job, so I’ll be fine. Even if…my arm hurts!”
“I-I see. You can stop if it’s too much, alright?”
“Yes!”
The medicine used for the medicinal wine had to be mixed until it dried.
As all you did was move your hands, it was technically a simple task… But it was still tiring.
In any case, I asked Milina to do it, and then I went to the back garden in order to make the herbs.
Mr. Ekenhart and Sebastian had gone ahead, and so they should be waiting for me.
“Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Ekenhart, Sebastian.”
“Mmm.”
“There you are, Mr. Takumi.”
I arrived at the garden with Leo and Liza.
Just as I expected, the two were waiting for me.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
