[16. Sus]

It doesn't feel like 3 months have passed, all the information in this world I have learned a lot, even I am secretly learning magic.

Even though I don't know what my element is, there's no harm in studying for preparation.

As long as I can sense mana, I feel uncomfortable all the time, apart from being able to sense the mana in the air I can sense the mana of others such as the butler, the first prince and my first brother.

I was confused at first why every week the first brother often came secretly to see me? I thought he just wanted to make something up that I should be wary of but as time went on, this confused me.

I don't know much about him other than some explanations about him in novels, I initially suspected he had child pedophilia (He thinks his brother likes children so he's wary, no one knows what other people think)

It wasn't until a few weeks ago that the gardener's aunt took his daugther to the pension because that day there was no one to look after him. The child is very kind and cute, she is a cute and well-behaved girl.

Because I'm bored there's nothing wrong with playing with that little kid, ahem.. I show off my magic skills because I have nothing to show off, not that I mean to be arrogant but I don't have friends who make me feel lonely. I sometimes miss my neighbor's aunt and the professor..

Yes. Never expected that I could be so naive playing with a small child made my mentality almost shatter, maybe the emotional influence of this child's body made me really almost an innocent person!

Not that I'm having a cough thought- no! Come on! As a person who has an adult mentality cannot endure being a child (╥﹏╥).

I thought my brother was a pedophile but he's not... Thinking about this makes me can't help but get goosebumps how can I not? I thought my brother was a... Bromance?

One more thing I don't understand this about the first prince.. Again..

A few days ago he visited Erlian's mansion so often that almost everyone was wondering about this prince? Did he like the Erlian family place? Thinks everyone does. But I don't think so.. Lately it's his actions and the reason is playing with captain Erlian's head.

I could feel that he was monitoring me, this gave me goosebumps. I think there's something wrong with these two characters!

Sure enough, their behavior was out of character ooc! Even though the prince hasn't changed much but it shows!

I suddenly want to run away from here as soon as possible thinking about their different behavior makes me afraid for the future. I'm afraid to die sooner

However, I have to be patient because I haven't checked my magic element and some things in the escape plan.

Since I woke up from being injured that time, the maids suddenly changed, they no longer bullied and bullied me then about food, I no longer eat leftovers but foods that can be said to be nutritious. I thought this might be due to the prince but after the prince left this still continued which made me confused.

Even my second brother never visited me.. It's weird, but I still feel a little scared.

I'm still happy to have this. Maybe for a while I don't need to pay attention to them.

During this time, I had always been close to the gardener aunt, Lilia the gardener aunt's daughter and the butler. The butler is very kind, he is like a predecessor.

"Little master, it's lunch time"

"Oh.. I'll just eat in the library, I don't want to go out.."

"Alright, hold on a minute little master"

Every night I would practice speaking and now that I'm fluent, I'm a little embarrassed to talk about this.

It's time for my elemental magic check. The opening of the Magic Tower of Magian will open next week. I don't want to buy mana crystals which cost 300 gold coins while my monthly allowance of only 5 coins bags could exceed 300 gold coins but I don't want to spend money on my escape.

Enough to buy something urgent. One more thing, I don't know where to buy which crystals, I once asked the butler and he said that mana crystals are not sold in magic shops.

They had to be ordered from the merchant or ordered from the hunter guild. Of course maybe more than 300 coins, you can also buy it to the magic tower.

Sure, it's not easy to save money, but easy to spend a day...

I can't just go out like yesterday I almost got caught by the maids walking at night to the dog hole, but luckily I haven't been in there yet.

I have to find someone as my confidant, but I don't know who it is. In this mansion all the maids have bullied me and it's not easy, don't tell me I have to buy someone on the black market?

Oh! Not my money! I also don't want to take someone in the plot! The plot definitely could have gone wrong and ended up falling apart then I would have died early! I do not want!

So, what to do now if I need something out there?

About the dog hole, not in the novel. It's new and there are a few holes I've never been to, I didn't want to get caught.

Tsk.. Why is it so hard, I also often feel someone's mana when I'm alone, it feels foreign but I'm a little scared.

Maybe he's a spy for Erlian's sly snake. But I don't think so, the whole day that person was around me like a cctv substitute.

At night I can feel the person leaving. There's no way I should go out at night, it's dangerous for small child.

Yes. I know I'm not a child, but avoiding the danger of reducing death and bad luck is best.

"Little master, time to eat"

"Good!"

I almost forgot to eat, my stomach was empty. Let's eat first and then think about the plan.

After eating I was a little hesitant to ask the butler, but I guess asking is okay right? I'm afraid he'll suspect that he's still the serpent's servant.

The butler saw me and knew what I was thinking.

"Does little master want to ask?"

"Um.. I heard the Magic Tower of Magian will open next week?"

"Yes, little master"

"When?"

"The gate of the magic tower will be opened when the clock chimes the 9th time and will be closed when the clock rings 17 times"

(9 times = 9 am, 17 times = 5 pm)

"Oh.. Did they only open it for a day?"

"No. They will open it for 3 days, a day for magic element testing, two days for a magic talent competition and three days for performances for the people and nobles..."

"So I see.. It must be fun.."

"Does little master want to see?"

"Eh.. I-I want to see the show on the third day, I wonder what it's like.."

Actually I wanted to go out for my butler's magic element check.

"I see, you can go outside that day. After all, little master never comes out."

"Eh? Is it possible?"

"Yes. The duke won't care, maybe you can"

"Okay! I'll be out that day too"

After that, I waited while learning my mana and read all day.
