The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Chapter 134

Really in the blink of an eye.

Cedric looked at me and opened his mouth.

“Ugh, I’m full. What do you think? I’m really fast right? Let’s go now.”

“……If you eat in such a hurry, you will have indigestion.”

I was worried, but Cedric had that confident smile.

“It’s okay, I won’t get indigestion. I have a strong stomach.”

But it was a groundless confidence.

Even if you were a Sword Master who handles auras, you wouldn’t be able to put an aura on your stomach.

It was then.

The nanny murmured as she heard the two of us talking in low voices.

“It’s a familiar voice. Oh I see. It’s like our Miss. Hoho, is the Miss having a good time at her friend’s mansion?”

It was a small talk to herself, but somehow it sounded clear to my ears.

I was a little terrified.

‘Nanny, were you really this quick-witted?’

We got up without a word and headed to the counter. The owner helped with the payment.

At that moment, I felt the nanny’s gaze on me again.

“…I thought only the voice was similar, but the hair, hoho, would it be like that when our Miss grows up?”

“……”

Only then did I notice that some hair was sticking out of the robe.

Now, it was embarrassing timing to put it back in.

I pretended not to hear and turned my head, raising my collar to hide my face.

‘Nanny, your eyesight is almost that of a detective.’

Anyway, we finished our payment and ran out.

We walked quickly to the alley, and from then on we all ran as if we were running away without saying a word.

“Gasp, gasp, gasp… We almost got caught.”

“I never thought we would meet someone we know in a place like this. It’s really fascinating.”

“No wonder. This is the biggest market in the capital.”

It was only when we arrived near the entrance from where we first entered the market that we managed to catch our breath and have a conversation.

In our hands, the headbands and accessory bags we bought earlier were crumpled up in a mess.

We stared at each other for a while, and then everyone laughed as if we had planned it together.

“What is that, Cedric? Did you have stew soup on your lips?”

“Damn it, tell me sooner.”

At Nicholas’ words, Cedric wiped his lips with his face blushing.

Meanwhile, I saw Alice with her hair scattered.

I went over and combed her hair with my hands.

“Thank you, Miss Emir!”

For me, except for a little bit of a cold sweat because I was so nervous earlier, there wasn’t much of a problem.

“Now let’s go ride the carriage again.”

After checking our dressing, we headed to the forest where the carriage was.

There was a fairly high stone staircase in the passage between the market and the forest.

‘You have to be careful.’

Because of the steepness, it seemed that we should be more careful when going down like now.

I carefully grabbed the railing and stepped forward, step by step.

But right then.

“……Oh?”

“Ack!”

Jake and Ninaina, who were right in front of me, screamed at the same time.

The moment I was startled by what was happening, my body reflexively reached out and grabbed the two of them so they wouldn’t fall apart.

At the same time, there was a slight ‘pop’, and the two changed from their grown-up appearance to their original childlike appearance.

“……”

“…Has half a day already passed?”

Jake muttered blankly.

I guess we didn’t even know the time was passing because we had so much fun.

But there was something everyone overlooked in that brief moment.

“Kyak!”

“Uwaaa!”

“Gasp!”

All six of us wore artifacts with a half-day validity. That was the point.

Therefore, after a few seconds of time difference according to the wearing time, we turned into children again.

Cedric, Alice, and Nicholas staggered out of balance at the sudden change, then grabbed each other and barely stood upright.

I stared blankly at the scene…

I stood stunned, forgetting that I was the last to wear the artifact.

“No, no!”

Exactly one second later, my transformation was released on its own, when I wasn’t leaning on anyone.

I staggered, immediately lost my balance and fell down the stairs.

“Miss, Miss Emir!”

“Mir!”

It was only later that I heard the voices of children calling me from above.

As I rolled, I felt a strange illusion as if time was passing a little slower.

“Ugh!”

After a while, I finally rolled over to the end of the stone steps and fell to the cold floor below.

The sound of children running down the stairs was heard in surprise.

“Are you okay? Emir!”

“Can you hear my voice, Emir?”

“You, you’re not dead, right?”

Judging by the sound of Cedric’s trembling voice, it didn’t seem like I was dead.

I blinked a little dazed at the same time as the pain.

It didn’t really feel like I had just fell. It was fortunate that I did not hit important vital points such as the head or neck.

Belatedly, I grabbed the children’s outstretched hands and tried to stand up slowly.

By the way.

“Ah……!”

It hurts so so much that a scream came out of my mouth. It looked like my leg was broken.

“Why, what’s wrong? Are you hurt?”
