Revenge.
Alice’s eyes fluttered at those words.
Although Alice had little to learn as a noble, she knew what the word revenge meant.
“Do you want me to ruin the family? Or will you destroy all summoner abilities from other family members? If you have such a wish, I can make it come true. I am the fairy king.”
“…I, I.”
Alice was confused.
She never had feelings of hatred towards her family.
But when she heard stories about her family being destroyed like this, she was terrified.
“…that is so scary.”
Alice murmured in a small voice only after a while.
Then, Fairy King Abish tilted his head with a trembling face.
“Why are you afraid? Even if the family is destroyed, there will be no problem if you are the contractor of the Fairy King. I will protect you.”
“……But I’m still seven years old.”
“What’s wrong with being seven, ah. Seven years of human age. Fairies don’t count their ages very well, so we’re a little clumsy. I’m sorry.”
Abby gave a shy expression.
And he continued speaking with a soft sigh.
“Then think about what you really want and call me again.”
As such, Abish suddenly disappeared.
The room where the fairy disappeared was dull and dark again.
Alice wrapped herself around her old blanket and was lost in thought.
“…what do I want?”
Before going to kindergarten, she must have had this thought.
What if something very miraculous happened?
‘I woke up and I thought it would be nice if a fairy appeared next to me. Then everyone will be surprised and rejoice.’
Alice thought, blinking her eyes.
‘Then I thought I would be able to be loved just like my sister.’
If she went out of the room now and went to her parents and told them that she had summoned a fairy, would everyone be happy?
For some reason, Alice couldn’t imagine it.
The way they greeted her with bright smiles in the blink of an eye, who had made a contemptuous expression until just before.
‘I hate that. I really hate it. It’s a creepy feeling…’
Alice shook her head.
Obviously, she had hoped for a change in her family’s attitude in the past, but now just imagining it gives her goosebumps.
‘But I don’t like the fact that the family will be ruined. If that happens… I won’t be able to go to kindergarten.’
Because she was of a noble family, she was able to attend Imperial Kindergarten.
Alice values her friends, whom she first met in kindergarten above anything else.
‘It’s so sad not to see Lady Emir.’
Alice continued to struggle in trouble.
And finally, late at night when everyone is asleep.
Alice carefully summoned the fairy king Abish.
“…Ooff, I just finished preparing to sleep, what happened?”
Abishh appeared with yawning in a row.
In front of him, Alice hesitated before speaking out.
“Fairy King, I have made up my mind.”
“Oh, really?”
“……Yes. First of all, please do not destroy the family.”
Abish narrowed her eyes.
“Are you doing this for the kindergarten? Because of the friends there?”
“How, how did you know?”
“I read your memory earlier, so there’s no way I don’t know.”
“Ah……”
Alice made a convinced look.
After a moment, Abish nodded his head.
“Do whatever you want. It is my duty to obey your will as a summoner.”
“Th, then!”
Alice hastily continued.
It was as if she was holding on to Abish, just in case he suddenly disappeared like before.
“… I don’t want to take revenge on the family. I don’t want to. Instead, if you sign a contract with me, Fairy King, I have something to ask you. It may be a difficult request, but…”
“What?”
“Ple, please raise me up to be a great adult!”
Abby’s eyes widened at Alice’s small cry.
“You want me to raise you? This body?”
“Yes.”
***
Chirp, chirp.
It’s a good morning to hear the birdsong.
“What did Alice do yesterday?”
Even after giving the fairy fruit, I was worried the whole time.
I wonder if she’s doing well?
Did she fall back asleep again after going home?
Did she meet a fairy ……
When I met Alice today, I thought that the first thing I would do is ask her how she is doing.
When I arrived at the kindergarten, I saw a carriage that had come before me.
It was Cedric and Alice’s carriage.
“Good morning, Lady Emir!”
I couldn’t even see Cedric. Perhaps he had gone to the bathroom, and Alice was welcoming me alone.
I waved my hand accordingly.
Then Alice smiled and said,
“I, I have something to tell you. Let’s go to an empty room on the second floor of the kindergarten for a while and talk.”
“Yes, Alice.”
I wondered what she was going to talk about, but without asking right away, I kept my mouth shut and took Alice’s hand and entered the kindergarten.
For some reason, Alice’s steps were fast as if excited.
Alice took the lead as if pulling me up and went up the stairs.
