1090 Lesson 3: The Tree Buried Room (Top)

Name:Isekai Ryouridou Author:Eda
Ahh, you're completely exhausted, aren't you?

At the end of the feast of praise at the Red Bird Palace, Vermes returned to a room for diplomats prepared for Genos Castle.

Gemdo hadn't been exhausted for a while, but he would say yes for his master.Vermes glanced sideways at the figure of Gemdo and laughed faintly.

"In the meantime, let's get dressed and relax."I'll wait for you in the bedroom. "

"Yes.... is Master Vermes still awake?"

"My body is exhausted, but my head has been subjected to the heat of the feast."Well then, I'll see you later. "

Vermes hides in the bedroom with his maiden name.

Assigned to the diplomat, the room was immediately between reception and service, with a door between the bedroom and the entrance of the servants.

Gemmud, who moved between the rooms, switched from his warlord's gown to his plain clothes and headed to the bedroom where Vermes was waiting.When I knocked on the door, I heard Vermes's voice instead of my maiden name saying, "Please."

Gemdo opens the door and stands up slightly breathless.

Vermes was still in the midst of a change of clothes - he was stripping off his banquet costume and exposing himself to the nakedness of one of his lower bands.

Her skin colour is white to the extent that she suspects that Vermes may contain blood from the south as well.And, on top of her beautiful face, she had a very slim and luxurious body.

Her limbs and torso were so thin that she could not compare them to the Gems of the Musketeers.That's like a big boy--no, that's what reminds me of an immature girl.

The white skin with a smooth texture like that of a maker is even more dazzling for the girl.Her arms, which could not even see the ups and downs of her muscles, her chest, which was so thin that she could barely see the baldness, and her waist, which seemed to break if she handled it roughly-all of them looked as pathetic and delicate as a girl or a spirit.

The boy with a small surname, who had followed from the capital, was preparing to wear night clothes by crushing all his emotions.This boy is supposed to be helping Vermes change his clothes in the morning and at night.Even so, Gemdo was so impressed that he could hide his heart.

“Thank you. If you're ready to go to bed, you can rest.”

Hermes, wearing gray nightwear, said that as she untied her long tied hair.The beauty of his pale hair fluttered, and the little boy's niece stopped moving as if he had only been taken away from his heart for a moment.However, after that, I recovered my courtesy and prepared Mama Leah's drink on the table. After that, I bowed and left the bedroom.

"Now, Gemdo, sit down."... what, didn't you change into nightwear?Such a figure is cramped, isn't it? "

“No, I'm not allowed to visit my husband's room at night.”

"You're as good as ever."... well, sit down.Mamaria, how about a drink? "

No, taking a drink in my husband's bedroom...

"Oh, that's enough. Anyway, if you stop sitting down

Vermes interrupted Gemdo's words and sat down on the couch.

In a place where no one else was watching, Vermes did not hide his loose figure from Gemdo either - but that was an impetuous statement by Vermes and the others.The figure that sat endlessly on the bench is also somewhere.

"Isn't Master Vermes tired after all?"If possible, you should rest early-- "

"What? Are you worried that I might get a fever again?"That's kind of you. "

Hermes smiled like an evil spirit and poured fruit wine into the cup with a manipulative hand.

"Now that you're finally alone, let me do what I want."If Gemdo smokes like this, I won't have a place to relax. ”

"...... I apologize many times if I've upset you."

"That's why it's so painful for me to behave like that."

In a childlike tone of voice, Vermes spoke of the fruit drinks in the liquor room.

Recently, Vermes has broken the hearts of the royals in the South, so it has been exhausted a lot.Of course, it wasn't Vermes who exposed himself to such appearances in public - but in front of Gemdo, there was no reason to be reluctant.

"But is this finally all that remains of the farewell feast?It's been a month and a half since the royals visited... it's been really long. "

Yes.

"It's only at this time of year that Lord Augg isn't here."If only Augg had been there, I would have pushed through all this trouble and acted freely... I wonder if I'd bought the Fate God Miza even if I was unhappy with it. "

Yes.

"... does that mean I deserve to buy the displeasure of the God of Fate?"

“No, I didn't mean to.If you've upset Mr. Vermes, then again and again-- "

So, if you're ready to go, then...

Fermes laughed bitterly as he put his cheek stick on the bench.

Hermès's complex brown and green eyes glowed like gems.

"You really haven't changed in a long time."...... how old have you been? "

"Yes, I am now 25 years old."

"Then I'll be twenty-two years old."You're getting old, aren't you? "

Vermes giggles like a toddler enjoying a prank.

It was somehow a reminder of her childhood.



Gemdo met Vermes about fifteen years ago.Gemdo was ten years old, and Vermes was seven years old.

At that time, Jemud was a poor child living in the downtown of the Duke of Veheim, the capital of the kingdom.The family was alone with a sick mother and no other relatives to rely on, so Gemdo was helped from a much younger age to work at home.

"But this kind of life isn't going to last much longer."Soon the Lord will help us save you... and you will be worthy of it. "

My mother used to say such things to me all the time.

Who is the Lord? but he was firmly silent, and repeated such words.It didn't seem to encourage Gemdo, it seemed to inspire him.

When Gemdo was ten years old, his mother died of a disease.

Gemdo, who had lost only one family, was taken to the cathedral in downtown, but within days, an unfamiliar old man visited the cathedral.

"You will be given a home and a role from today.Thank the Lord and keep up the good work. "

With those words, the old man pushed Gemdo into Totos' car.

And they brought him into the house of the nobles.

Gemd was amazed to hear that it was an aristocratic mansion connected to the Duke of Vehem's house.

(I wonder if this is the master's mansion that my mother said.But I can't believe you're an aristocrat connected to the Duke... where did your mother go to meet such a great man?)

But that sentiment suddenly dimmed.

When I stepped into your mansion, it wasn't as splendid as I thought it would be.

The mansion itself is quite large. However, there were not enough servants on the large scale, and it was a very wandering atmosphere.There was no appearance of the garden being maintained for a long time, and there were black stains all over the wall hangings in the corridor.

"You're Gemdo."...... from today, I will have your custody. "

The owner of the mansion was a man of old age, although he was still young.

The clothes are fine, but the skinny face is diminished by the color of fatigue and distress.His eyes, green as the people of the south, were filled with an imminent light.

"In the meantime, I'll leave the children in your care."I will be sincere and sincere to your mother. "

On the spot, the two children were refrained from doing so.

A boy who was about the age of Gemdo, he looked dangerous somewhere, and even younger, he looked very pretty.

When the boy underneath coughed bitterly, the master of the father's mansion carved a deep wrinkle on the thin forehead of the flesh.

"Are you losing your temper again?"What a sick child he is.... Gemdo, take him to the bedroom and take care of him. "

Still unable to grasp this situation, Gemdo had no choice but to follow his master's words.

The boy grabbed by Gemdo smiles "Thank you" with a bloody face.The eyes were littered with a very strange shade of glowing green and brown, similar to that of her father.

This was the encounter between Gemdo and Vermes.

For Jemdo at that time, Vermes was just a sickly boy with a beautiful face.Vermes didn't talk much, and half of the moon looked like he was lying in a bedroom, so he barely had a chance to interact.

Therefore, it was his brother's first son who taught Jemud behind the scenes of this scene.I was also thin and didn't seem very strong, but my temper was active -- and I felt uncomfortable.

"You're the one my father had his servant give birth to."So my mother got angry and knocked your mother out of the Mansion.And now that Mother has returned her soul, my father will finally be able to take you back to the Mansion. "

So, this brother's mother was to return her soul at the same time as Jemud's mother.

"It's a very pleasant story."What's so fun about that? You and I are 10 years old, right?In other words, my father impregnated his partner and his girlfriend at the same time.Of course Mother was angry.I can't stop laughing when I imagine your big, hungry mother kicking your mother out of the mansion with the same amount of hunger. "

Gemdo didn't feel laughable at all, but I could understand why he had such a ludicrous look in his eyes.And when his mother was sickened, his father brought into the mansion the iniquitous child that he had begotten.Then it didn't seem right for him to hate Gemdo.

Gemdo doesn't know why his father imitated him like that.Were they just looking for help, or was it just an expression of his apologies to Gemdo's mother - at least his father never loved Gemdo.He didn't even try to talk about his past with his mother, but treated Gemdo as a servant.Gemdo couldn't even think of this master as his father.

"I'm telling you, I don't think my concubine has inheritance rights."There is no proof that you are my father's seed.You will serve us as servants for the rest of your life. "

My brother used to say it like that.

Of course, Gemdo didn't want to take my mentor, and I didn't think it was worth it.This house belongs to a fallen nobleman, no matter what he thinks.I don't know what blood ties there are to the Duke's house, but I could see it wouldn't last for generations.

Then Gemdo spent his funny days being taunted by his brother -- sometimes in Vermes's bedroom.Gems were often pulled out when maidservants were out of hand.

Vermes was a child without a hand.Even nursing care was such as wiping sweat when he had a fever, and taking care of medicine and meals.As soon as he got a little better, the boy would be immersed in the book, so Gemdo had no choice but to watch his figure.

"... is the book so much fun?"

One day, Gemmud asked in a whim, and Vermes, who was halfway up on the bed and reading, turned his face to hers.

"Interesting. Does Gemdo hate books?"

”I don't like it... I can't read”

"What!? Gemdo is older than me, right?"And yet, you can't read? "

Vermes coughs with a bounce when he shouts out in surprise from the bottom of his heart.

"Oh, please rest. I'm sorry for the unnecessary words.Would you like to have some water? ”

"No, it's okay.... I see." Gemdo grew up in downtown, didn't he?Is it not permissible for a child who grew up in a downtown area to learn to read and write? "

"No, if you were a merchant's son, you would probably learn in the cathedral... but I had work to do at home and I couldn't make that kind of time."

"I see.... if I hadn't been able to read the script, I would have been bored, bored and unable to bear it."

Vermes, who was only seven years old, said so in a strangely stingy tone.

"Well, I guess that's a nobleman's crap who lives without any limitations."Gemdo couldn't learn to read and write because he was busy at work. "

"Yeah, well... please leave me alone and enjoy reading."I won't bother you anymore. "

"Why? Does Gemdo hate me?"

With complex eyes of brown and green, Vermes stared straight at Gemdo.

Gemdo replied "No", holding his gaze in fear of being sucked into his soul somewhere.

"I am a servant serving this mansion."I don't hate my master, Vermes, and I don't want to destroy him. "

"No. It's a servant's job to do everything in the mansion, so it's a different matter whether you like or dislike your master."If you're a bad master, isn't it normal for a servant to hate you? "

Perhaps because he was only reading, Vermes was a master of words.

Still distracted by his mysterious gaze, Gemdo answered.

"But I've been living in poverty for a long time... and the other day, I lost all my family."Life in the cathedral didn't seem to suit me very well either... so I appreciate you taking me to my mansion. ”

"Hmm. Gemdo is a different person."

Having said that, Vermes laughed thinly.

Somewhere, you're laughing like you're enjoying a prank.

"Well, if Gemdo doesn't hate me, I'm glad."Gemdo is the one who treats me like a human in this mansion. "

"Huh? I don't think so..."

"Why? Children like me who get a lot of fever are neglected by servants."But even if you don't have enough manpower, you'll have more extra work, so that's only natural. "

"However, everyone in the family..."

"My family is ignoring me."Well, rather than neglecting it, does it feel like you're treating it as something you don't have?After all, children like me won't live long, and I don't think there's any use for a useless family. ”

And Vermes fell down on the couch.

"I've spoken a lot to crackle, so I guess I'm a little tired."I'm going to sleep, so you can rest your gems. "

"No, it's my job to keep an eye on Master Vermes."

"No, it's hard to fall asleep if you're seen like that."... there hasn't been anyone else watching me like that before. "

As a result, Gemmud gradually bonded with Vermes.

I wonder if such a life has lasted for about three years.When Vermes reached the age when Gemdo first came to the Mansion, a great transformation came.Vermes said he wanted to become a bachelor.

"At ten years old, what is a bachelor's degree?You didn't even go to school in the first place, did you?You should probably take care of your worldly misunderstandings. "

It seems that her father-in-law was showing such indignation.

But Vermes didn't give up.At the end of the day, he convinced his father to take the bachelor's entrance exam.

"Um, I don't really know what a bachelor is... is that what it means to go to school?"

That night, he was given the role of taking care of Vermes instead of a busy maid, so Jemud asked.

"No. There's just so many people who go to school."In it, people who make learning the main thing are called bachelor's students. "

At the age of ten, Vermes replied to me in a slightly grown-up manner.

"Learning is the main thing... I'm sorry.I still don't seem to understand. ”

"That's why noble and merchant sons learn in school to get the knowledge they need for their lives, right?"Instead, a bachelor is a scholar who tries to hone his knowledge in order to develop civilization.To make useful tools more convenient, or to guide new teachings from history so far... simply put, that's what it's all about. "

”Hah... is it true that Master Vermes has such aspirations?”

“No. I just want to know more about this world.I've already read all the books I can borrow from the regular library, so I thought I'd have to go to the "Tower of the Wise Men". "

Having said that, Vermes laughed again like a toddler enjoying a prank.

"If you pass the reincorporation test, you'll be spending time in the [Tower of Sages], right?"Is your body okay? "

"Yes. The 'Tower of the Wise Men' is equipped with medical facilities."Because there are a lot of people there who are learning medical knowledge.It seems that there are not a lot of people who also work as a bachelor and a medical practitioner, and it's more convenient for people who are sick and weak like me. "

And then, Vermes smiled even more like a prankster.

"So, if a human with a bachelor's degree falls into a disease, I'm sure they'll treat him for free."My father finally broke when I said that I wouldn't have to cut my fortune for my medicine in the future.It's useless to leave a sick second son at home who can't even hold a government position. "

"Master Vermes..."

"Ahahah. Don't look like that.If I can get away with a bad family, I'll be clean as well. "

And --- Vermes turned to Gemdo with a sweet gaze as he wiped out his childish smile.

"The only thing that's left is that I can't meet Gemdo."Gemdo was the only one who broke my heart in this mansion. "

Gemdo was unexpectedly stuck with words and couldn't reply quickly.

Then, Vermes turned around and hid her gaze in her long forehead.

"But, well, that worries me since I took the exam."Since the youngest person to date is 13 years old, I wonder if you can repaint the record for me. "

Then, a few days later, Vermes challenged the entrance exam to become a bachelor---and brilliantly repainted the history of the "Tower of the Wise".

The next few days passed in a hurry, and Gemmud realized that he was going to have a long farewell without a chance to talk to Vermes.Once he became a bachelor who lived in the "Tower of the Wise Men", he said he would not return home unless it was an urgent matter.In fact, Gemdo spent the next few years without facing Vermes.

(How should I have answered Master Vermes that night?)

Gemdo was bound to have such suspicions for a long time.

Vermes is a hard man to read.I don't hide my emotions more and more, but I can't really tell how far the gossip is.

And Gemdo had never spoken to Vermes about his origins.In this mansion, Vermes' brother was the only one who took care of it.The owners and servants of the Mansion seemed to be gripping their mouths tightly while they understood everything - in such uncomfortable conditions, Jemud spent about three years.

Hermes' brother is clearly ignoring Gemdo's presence.He hates his father and his unjust mother, and he hates his son Gemdo.Your love for your mother must have turned into a hatred for Gemdo.

Gemdo sees the hatred as legitimate.Hermes' brother seemed to turn his disgust toward his father and even toward Gemdo, but he didn't know how he didn't want to hate his real father.If you hate Gemdo and feel good about him, you've come to the point of giving up.

So, what was Vermes like?

Didn't you feel uncomfortable about Gemdo?

In the first place, did you know as much about Gemdo's origins as your brother did?

Well, I don't think it's possible that only Vermes has been informed of anything - neither Gemdo nor Vermes have spoken about it for the past three years.

(Could it be that I was afraid of knowing Master Vermes's true intentions?)

In an uncomfortable mansion, Vermes' bedroom was the most restful place for Gemmud.The atmosphere in that room was as if time was stopping somewhere, and I shouldn't have thought it was unrelated to the troubles of the outside world.

Maybe that's why Gemdo didn't want to destroy that restless space.

With Vermes gone from the Mansion, Gemmud began to feel that way.

And Gemdo was about to say goodbye without even trying to know Vermes' true intentions--and he couldn't really answer Vermes's call.

(The only thing that's left is that I can't meet Gemdo.Gemdo was the only one who broke my heart in this mansion.)

How should Gemdo have answered Vermes's words?

Along with the sweet gaze that Vermes showed, the words were always stuck in one corner of Gemdo's head, and he never got away from it.
