“Then, as rumored, the Countess…… Did you become a medium? They say that if you become a Medium, you’ll end up as a total wreck…” It has not been announced properly so I didn’t know there was already a rumor going around. Kaichen and Julius said that everything became known unexpectedly, but they did not say that it had spread throughout the empire.

“Teacher helped. I was away for a while, right? That’s when I got some treatment.” I spat it out as if it was a trivial matter, but Las’ expression was still distorted.

“We… really without knowing anything…”

“No! No, of course, you didn’t know. Because I didn’t tell you.” His tears were about to start pouring out, so I groaned and stood up. I heard the information I needed, so there was no need to stay longer.

“Miss… No, Countess…”

“Then Las, I’ll come again!” I squinted and looked at Lrs, but it seemed like he was going to hold onto me, so I waved and hurried out of the restaurant.

“Ah…” But when I left the restaurant, I was taken aback to see the locals of Acrab buzzing around me. No wonder I could feel so many eyes on me when I came to the store. They must have gathered one by one to see me.

‘This is not good.’ There is no one that I’m unfamiliar with. I remember the names, faces, family relations, and everything else of over three thousand Acrab residents. Even what I did to them. It can never be pleasant to be surrounded and looked at by them like this.

“Hu… Huu…” When I took a deep breath as much as possible and said ‘It’s okay’ in my mind many times, Jenny, who I was familiar with, approached me, wrangling her hands.

“Countess… You know, dad is healthy now.” When I looked up, I could see Jamie standing awkwardly holding Jenny’s younger brother. I gently patted Jenny’s head and smiled.

“Good for you Jenny, you don’t have to worry about your dad anymore.”

“Dad said it was all thanks to the Countess,” Said Jenny and took a flower out of her arms. The flower that was crushed in the child’s arms was a small dandelion flower. Seeing the pretty yellow flower, I carefully accepted it and sent Jenny back.

Holding the flower that the child had given me in my hands, I glanced at the people gathered around me. My eyes throbbed as if they were telling me not to forget. My heartbeat uneasily and my breath became rapid.

The friendly gaze towards me was burdensome. I had become better but it was still too much for me. Besides, just a few days ago, I had to witness a terrible memory vividly. I came out thinking that it would be okay, but when I was surrounded like this, my body showed signs of anxiety. ‘Ah, this is really annoying.’ Isn’t this what it’s like to not be able to do as you want? When I wondered if I was going to repeat the same thing as before, golden magic flashed in front of me.

“Why are you out already?” It was such a sweet remark that I doubted if it really was the voice I knew. Kaichen appeared in front of me in an instant and reached out to me staring at my face. He ruffled my hair lightly and said slowly,

“What a stupid expression.” It’s because I was so surprised. I held the dandelion flower that Jenny gave me in one hand and looked up at him quietly. Kaichen looked at me without saying a word, then patted the top of my head and turned his back. At that time, the gazes of the people surrounding me were blocked. It was thanks to Kaichen’s large body.

‘What is this exactly?’ I was surprised at how Kaichen, who disappeared and suddenly appeared, knew I was here, but I was even more surprised at how he didn’t mind receiving attention on my behalf even though he didn’t like to appear in front of people.

“I believe I told you not to act like this.” At Kaichen’s brief words, the gathered crowd flinched and tensed up.

“B-but… We wanted to say thank you,” said someone. I stared at Kaichen’s wide back and thought hard about what the hell happened.

“I told you to say thank you through a letter.”

“But…!”

“I also said that there are no buts.”

“…”

“Do you guys want to make the lord who has barely recovered fall ill again?” The surrounding air cooled down. The people gathered seemed to have a lot to say, but one by one, they reluctantly left. Over Kaichen’s shoulder, I could see Jenny waving her hand lightly. Exactly what did Kaichen tell to the people of Acrab? Raising my head, I couldn’t contain my curiosity and looking at Kaichen’s back I asked,

“Teacher, what did you say to people?”

“Not much… I told them to not bother you.”

“What?”

“The lord needs stability, so I told them not to say thank you or apologize or anything.” As I blinked my eyes and tilted my head, Kaichen suddenly looked at me again and put his hand on my head.

“I don’t know the details, but you… you find people here uncomfortable.” Then he turned his head. When I didn’t respond to him saying that he did it for me, Kaichen twitched his eyebrows and asked, “Should we go?”
