Chapter 10

After all the crying and commotion is over.Claire stood seriously in front of the closet with the maids.Today was the day Cybill decided to bring Oscar. She had to choose her clothes carefully.It was this boy’s torso.”Let’s go!””Would you like more?”‘No matter how young you are… Still, it’s my first time seeing Oscar, so I have to be careful.’The boy with dark hair and red eyes was an amazingly beautiful boy that took his breath away.”Oh, are you chasing that man?”Let’s turn our gaze to the other side this time, and from one side, the users of the mansion were watching the situation again with excited faces.Claire reluctantly stretched out his arm towards the Duke.”I will hide first!””Give me a lot.”At that moment, Sylane’s words were heard, and Claire turned her head to see herself in his mirror.”I, I have to hide….”「Then. Then. I must propose but show it well.」’I do not know! How do you hide with that big guy! Are you playing hide-and-seek now? Is this funny?’When he turned his head, he saw the peacock whimpering in the distance and the duchess to comfort him.Duke Aston sat down, holding Claire with trembling hands. The process was very slow and careful.Luka and Lois got excited and started running somewhere.’Cause I’m feeling-His expression and atmosphere were quite calm, unlike his young age. To put it differently… It was very cold.”It is dangerous to travel alone.”Ruby put Hunsu by her side. Claire nodded her head saying she was right.Those who looked at them were cheering for the Duke of Aston.It was pretty as the waving skirt looked like it was waving like a wave. Claire’s sky-blue eyes gleamed as she looked in a mirror.At Claire’s words, the Duke was excited and fed him some more muffins.「That’s it. Hmm, by the way, how about being careful in front of your baby….」The Duke of Aston looked happy as he wept, and the Duchess smiled lovingly.”Come on, honey.””….”On the other hand, Claire was absurd.The two clashed shoulder to shoulder and ran as if there was a competition.He was already predicting how handsome he would become when he grows up.’It’s embarrassing….’”Lady, how about this?”At Ines’s urging, the Duke carefully took the muffin a little with a fork.Claire looked around her in disbelief. The servants passing by looked at Claire with a smile.It’s hide-and-seek… It’s not funny.Then, Ines whispered something into the duke’s ear. The peacock said, “Ah!” While doing this, he picked up a small glass on the table and brought it to Claire’s lips. Puck!As if he thought that Claire had opened his heart to the Duke because of the morning thing, everyone watched this scene and his heart was warmed.And Elliot smiled at his parents.”Now, shall we go get some snacks?””Claire. Claire can’t go far, okay?”Shilaine, the maid in charge of Claire, asked with a gentle voice.”Claire, are you okay?”‘To attract.’”Ouch!”It was ridiculous to see his big hands and thick arms holding a sword all his life, shaking and trembling to get rid of the muffins.’No….’”Great!”Elliot asked, but Claire nodded and started running towards the distance.Sylane put it on, careful not to let her zipper or inner seams touch Claire’s skin.Then, Cybill appeared from behind the boy. She patted Claire’s ass with concern.It was truly a happy sight.It’s childish, but… I think it might be fun somehow…?’Rather than open my heart….’Claire drank her grape drink.Sylane is a maid with lemony hair and light brown eyes, she says, where she originally came to work for the Duchess’s home.Claire’s body, as she was running frantically, bumped into something, and she slumped over, pounding her butt.It’s hide-and-seek, but you carry a person this big? Besides, since when did she follow you?Claire immediately grabbed Silane’s hand.No one would have expected that discord would come to such a harmonious and peaceful family.Seeing the big peacock crouching alone with a swollen face was heartbreaking.The legs of the pink teddy bear in her arms trembled.’It’s comfortable, but….”It’s comfortable.’My heart started beating a little.Even so, I did not forget the teddy bear I had left next to me and took it with me.But the duke’s face was serious.”Miss!”That’s….”It is dangerous over there. How about going to her room and hiding?”It was so burdensome that I couldn’t enjoy a proper snack time.As she lived here, she began to get used to her caring touch.Claire was very fond of Silane.’Yeah, let’s keep this peace anyway.’Like the person doing the most important thing in the world.Besides, I was deeply moved to see if there was such a thing as blood attraction….Although the memories of her previous life were blurred, it was not fully assimilated like a child.”Baby, where are you going to hide?””….”Rendel, who ran from behind, was restless and tried to wake Claire. ‘What is today’s snack?’It was because her voice was so soft and kind that it puts her heart at ease every time I hear it.Claire was determined as if she had received a sense of mission to save the planet.With trembling hands, he brought the fork with the cake to Claire’s little mouth.”….”‘Where should I hide?’The peacocks continued to look at them as if they were happy to see food in Claire’s mouth.The sad memories from the previous life gradually faded, and only the content related to the original remained in my memory.Claire swallowed his saliva and raised his head to look at his dark-haired boy.Is it because I see you every day? It didn’t feel scary anymore.Since she was never hungry, Claire now had no difficulty continuing her adult thinking.After coming to the peacock family, waiting for snacks every day was fun.But before that.”If you hide under the blanket, you won’t even be able to find Master Elliot!”My heart was pounding. Was hide-and-seek so much fun? Would this be crazy?What Silane gave her was a bright sky blue dress.After such a burdensome snack time.Luka’s face suddenly appeared before him as he made such an enormous promise to himself.”Oh, try it, Claire.”Claire glanced back and saw Elliot, Luca and Lois sitting across from the table.Also, the bad memories of the aristocratic family he lived in before were forgotten.A warm hand grabbed Claire’s waist and gently lifted her up.This boy is the male protagonist of ‘The Ending of Eternal Flame’, who will become an obsessive man in the future.Meals are as enjoyable as a meal, but the joy of snacks cannot be left out.But sometimes a child’s instincts would pop out.From his chest, a piece of heavenly and heavenly cloth was stretched out, and his collar was lined with lace and silk.Claire barely managed to get out of the duke’s arms and started running around his lawn.”Ah….”Who do you think is stupid? Do you know that hide-and-seek is a joke?Excitedly, he ran to and fro, and as he passed the garden, a large shadow suddenly appeared next to him.”Claire! Would you like to play hide-and-seek with your brothers?”When he eats something delicious, sees something pretty, or hears a strange or interesting story.The three boys with pink hair were looking at Claire with bright eyes.It was a good sign.”Are you hurt?”‘Oscar Perdenia.’Claire opened his mouth with a trembling expression.”Sir Rendell…!””Claire, I’m going to feed you some dessert today.”‘You look very calm.’”Let’s have Elliot hyung play the tag!””Claire! Come here!””Ouch!”Because you can erase all the bad memories and create a happy ending.With a low and heavy voice.He was the one to whom he should propose.The cheese muffin that came into his mouth was savory and softer than expected.”Heok is calling my name….”Claire clenched his fists and calmed his pounding heart, waiting for Elliot, the tug, to come. I hope you come soon….As she headed to her outdoor garden table where dessert awaited, the Duke of Eston greeted her with a bright expression.”I want to feed you too….”It was perfect because I don’t want to look like a snub-nosed child.”Great!””Claire!”When Claire stopped, startled, the person following smiled.Claire raised her head in surprise at the first hearing of her voice.”Have you never played hide-and-seek?””Me too. I want you to sit on my lap and feed me.”「Yeah, now I just need to make a proposal!」”Brother!”It was still warm, so it melted in my mouth.Luka and Lois, who called themselves like dogs, were annoyed, but they decided to hang out for a bit.’It’s embarrassing….’”Do you like it!””Yes?””Okay. Then we’ll count to 100 and go find them, so everyone hides.”He was a tall man.Luka and Lois grumbled.’Don’t keep reading my thoughts!’”…!”Luca ran to call Elliot.”Is it delicious, sweetheart?”I wanted to say no right away, but… Duke Aston’s expression looked so happy.”Then I’ll dress you with this.””I’m going alone!””Phew.””Miss. My name is Rendell, the lady’s escort knight.”On the other hand, Elliot sent a warm smile towards Claire.Claire stared at the teddy bear sitting next to her.Claire only now realized where she had dashed and pounded it.In fact, the two brothers are now 8 years old, so they are not old enough to play hide-and-seek, but the idea was to play according to Claire’s level.The duke asked with excitement. Claire nodded her head. And as if asking for more, his mouth said, “Oh!” spread outElliot, who was kind enough to be bothered, complied with the demands of his younger brothers.Claire nodded her head, and Sylane smiled sweetly.Claire pushed Rendell and ran. “Haha!” from behind. A light laugh could be heard, but Claire ignored it and ran away.Claire, who was running with a teddy bear, stopped there to rest for a while.Besides, the expression on the mother’s face next to her was full of anticipation.”It’s done.”Her red-haired knight introduced herself politely in the meantime.
