Chapter 21: Emelod

Warm sunlight streams through the stained glass windows of the greenhouse, casting colorful shadows on the floor. The breeze carries the scent of flowers. I am lying in a rocking chair, hugging my little black cat, stroking its soft fur with my uninjured left hand.Could life be any better?The kitten is very obedient, curled up in a small ball of fur on my belly. I can feel his steady breathing as I rest my hand on his back, a sign of trust.Just as I am about to fall asleep, I suddenly feel my right hand, wrapped in bandages, itch. The kitten turns its ears away and rubs its forehead against my hand."No biting,"I say, pulling my hand back to avoid it. The cat immediately drops its ears, as if sad, and then nods.?Did I see it wrong?After I bought it, I read up on elves. Humanoid elves are infinitely close to humans in both intelligence and appearance, and can communicate normally. However, most beast-like elves only have the intelligence of beasts, and even if they can understan

Chapter 22: Time for medicine, big brother

"Hmm..."I woke up naturally this morning, stretched out comfortably, and I haven't felt this refreshed in a long time!Hmm? My stomach feels heavy?I reached down to feel it, it's furry and warm..."Ah!""Miss! What's wrong!"Sharon rushed in, panicking, and I was about to jump out of bed when I saw a black tail under the covers.I slowly lifted the blanket and locked eyes with Eimo."Sharon, did you let Eimo in?""No, I didn't! Master Elio said not to bring Eimo into my room.""It's okay, you can go now."The door closed again and I poked Eimo's fluffy head: "You disobedient kitty, how did you sneak in here?"Ignoring my question, he walked over to me with an elegant gait and fell asleep in my lap.Now he pretends he doesn't understand!***Ever since I learned that I had too much magic in my body, I stopped pestering Gray to take magic lessons.On the one hand, I felt that I couldn't use it anyway, and magic wasn't something that could be mastered just by practicing, and on the oth

Chapter 23: Don't Leave Me

After solving the problem of my excessive magic power, the rejection reaction returned, and I was happy for a few seconds before falling back into sorrow and suffering.This time, I couldn't consult Grey. After all, he thought that the magic power I rejected was injected by a bad magician, but in fact, the magic power produced directly by my soul didn't match my body...Why can't life be any simpler...Ermo used his head to push his way into my hands, pressing his little head into my palms. He always did this when I was in a bad mood, as if he knew that touching his head would make me feel better.I picked him up and kissed him hard a few times. Life was tattered and torn, and the kitten was mending it.***The days of reveling in the kitten's beauty passed quickly. Before I knew it, it had been a year since I came to the Duke's mansion. It had always been very quiet here, with no banquets or parties. Nigel's family had almost no social activities.Until today.The door to the ballroo

Chapter 24: My life of being bullied by bad guys

Things didn't go quite as I expected.After the second prince introduced himself, he began to praise Claire's dancing. Before he could finish, Claire took my hand and said worriedly, "Inet? You look so pale, did you eat too much?"I was obviously sad, but you think I'm full...I looked at the Second Prince who had been interrupted, and he still had a bright smile on his face, as if it were a mask, without the slightest flaw.The Second Prince had a sunny and handsome appearance, but his look made me extremely uncomfortable, and I sneaked behind Cléa and shrank.She looked at me thoughtfully, "Let's go dance."I nodded repeatedly and followed her to the dance floor. Second Prince Er and Ario were talking about something, but his gaze kept following us, like a thorn in our backs.***They said they were dancing, but with our height difference, we were just holding hands and turning to the music."Are you not having fun today?"Was my expression that obvious? How could I let the person w

Chapter 25: Ahhh, there's a ghost!

Sitting on Arios' arm, I can finally look at the crowd eye to eye. At a child's height, all I see are thighs...From this angle I can even look down at Odysseus. He talks to me, leaning forward a bit because he developed a few years earlier than I did!"I heard the ladies say that Miss Inette is your younger sister?""Yes." Ariol walked past me, holding me close. He lowered his voice so only the three of us could hear, "If I catch you contacting her again, you're dead."Ariol walked away, and I leaned over his shoulder to look back. Ulysses didn't go after him, and he didn't come back. He just stood there, expressionless, wondering what to do...Huh? What's that?There was a bright red spot on the sleeve of Ulysses' snow-white tuxedo, slowly spreading, right where Ariol had just grabbed him. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't possibly strangle someone until they bled, could he? But Ulysses had a distorted expression for a moment when he was grabbed by the wrist just now..."The

Chapter 26: A Numb Heart

“Ted Lux?”I nodded, and the duke hesitantly asked, “Can I ask why you like him?”Because he can beat up Elio! Haha!“I met him last time I was at the training ground, and he seems like a nice person!” And he's quite handsome.The duke frowned disapprovingly: “He is the future Viscount Lux, and I still hope that you can choose knights who are exclusive to the duke's mansion as much as possible, for safety's sake.”No wonder Ted didn't show any mercy to Elio. It turns out that he is also a nobleman. For safety's sake, I have to choose him even more. He is the only one in the entire Duke's Mansion who can possibly resist Elio.The Duke finally gave in, and I got a handsome bodyguard as I wished, with his cute younger brother as a bonus.***After leaving the Duke's office, I returned to the greenhouse. The sun had already begun to set, and Sharon would be worried if I didn't go back soon. However, I couldn't let go of Emo's unusual behavior, so I wanted to check on him again.The greenh

Chapter 27: Disobeying the Duke

"My Lady, you seem very happy today."Of course I am happy. The chance to leave the Duke's mansion is so rare that I want to enjoy this hard-won free time!Ermo hasn't been sneaking into my room in the mornings for the past few days. Even though we've made up, he's still in a bad mood. I've gotten used to my little cat pillow, and I don't sleep well when it's not there.My sister, Claire, has given me a lot of pocket money, so I plan to take this opportunity to buy her some cat toys to make her happy.A carriage is waiting for us downstairs. I opened the door with a smile on my face, only to see Elio's cold face."What are you doing? I have training this afternoon. Get in the car quickly."No, who invited you?"Brother, do you want to go to the fair too? Haha.""I don't want to."I don't want to. Then get out of the carriage, why do you make it sound like I'm being unreasonable by insisting on going with you?The carriage pulled up to the door and was stopped by a few people in a hurr

Chapter 28: I'm making a virtue.

“Yes?”Ulysses half-kneeled to be at my level, the light shining back into his eyes, his gentle smile mesmerizing the women passing by to turn back frequently.“How much?”I made a show of unfolding my arms, “There's this - how much I like it!”I'm a kid, there's no shame in that, there's no shame in that!Daniel looked at me with big surprised eyes, over, like it was embarrassing.“Well, then if I gave the rabbit to Ms. Inet, would you like me this--this much too?”Wasn't I embarrassed enough? I can't believe he's learning from me ......I looked at him with flashing eyes, “I would like you a little bit more!”Ulysses burst out laughing, I then heard the female crowd around me suck in a cold breath, was that so dramatic? It's not like this guy is Apollo.“That's enough.” He handed the cage to Ted, “Hold it for your lady.”“Thank you brother Yuri!”The 'little black bean' ate hay in a dull manner, oblivious to the change in his fate.Ulysses was thoughtful, “You always seem to be snat

Chapter 29: I Don't Know If This Is Goodbye Forever

With Ermo's permission, I temporarily stored Xiao Hei Dou in the greenhouse. If I see Ulysses a few more times, will this place soon turn from a botanical garden into a zoo?When Ermo saw the little mouse I bought, I saw embarrassment on his face for the first time. He played with it a few times symbolically, as if to save face for me, and then secretly threw the mouse into the depths of the flowers.He even pretended to apologize, "Woof woof, that's love!"We were in the middle of a peaceful scene of motherly love when Emo suddenly perked up, ears alert, and dove headfirst into the flowers. He's usually fearless, and even after the time he bit me, Elio threatened to teach him a lesson, but he still dared to argue with Elio!"Little Enid, your maid said I might find you here."Oh, it's Gray. Emo is really afraid of him, although he's very gentle."I need to investigate something. I've been delayed for a long time and may have to leave for a while..."He said, holding up a finger and l

Chapter 30: A Birthday Party and an Unwelcome Guest

Time flies. In the blink of an eye, I have been in the Duke's mansion for four years. Standing in front of the Duke's office, I have a feeling of déjà vu. It seems like only a short time ago that I was adopted. I tilted my head to look in the door frame to see myself in the mirror. I would never do such a silly thing now.It's really great to be taller. When I was little, everyone looked like giants to me, and I had to tilt my head 90 degrees to see their faces. Luckily, children's bones are soft, or everyone would get cervical spondylosis before they grew up."Click!"The door opened and I found myself facing the person's chest. Elio had grown faster than I had. The seventeen-year-old boy had a straight posture and a handsome appearance. Although his features were still the same, he gave a completely different impression. He blinked his dark red eyes and looked down at me."Why didn't you come in when you arrived? You were just standing in the doorway."The Duke invited me to sit bes
