Nasya what the hell is going on with you, I'm a slave even if you have plans to use me later, this is ridiculous. A room near the lady of the house can't be used even by the lady's lover, so how can I? That's an important place. It was good that someone else opposed this decision, I myself didn't know what to say, I was totally shocked.
"Miss Corttes what did I hear just now?"
"Oh, is there something wrong with what I said, Spencer?"
This must be mister Spencer?! A handsome and tallboy, with a slender body and long white hair tied in a ponytail from behind, his eyes were green and his face was calm and felt as if he was seeing people from above.
I imagined him younger for his age, he probably is twenty-four years old now, but maybe living through paperwork and fulfilling the whims of the marquess and his daughter has been really difficult for him.
Spencer Melbruc is an aristocrat with no land and no wealth. At a young age, ten years old, when he lost everything during a 'catastrophe', the marquess took him and taught him how to live in society and also the job of secretary. Nasya had not been born yet and the marquess treated Spencer as his son. He made it possible for him to be educated in one of the best academies in the country, this would help him to have more achievements under his name.
After that, he gained his reputation as a genius and graduated from the academy with the best grades.
Now he works as a personal butler and secretary of the house who deals with all matters related to the property and wealth of the marquess.
He had many other offers to do the same job, and could be paid more, he could probably also work as the personal secretary of one of the princes if he wished, but he chose the marquess as his lord in gratitude for the achievements he had made and ... for one of his personal reasons.
"Since I'm looking for an explanation, it means there is something wrong with what you said, my lady."
"I don't think so, my friend here needs constant observation because she doesn't know anyone here. How can I leave her in one of the other rooms when I was the one forcing her to come here?"
Spencer turned his gaze to me. His eyes didn't show any emotion, but I felt as if I was being criticized for the lady's decision. Spencer originally didn't talk much, and on 'special occasions', he expressed his dislike quietly and as far as I could see, also with deadly glances.
Sir, I know you are against it but I am not the person to who you should express your anger, talk with the lady who made the decision, not me, do not involve me in this.
"My lady we can find another room more suitable for...this person."
Ouch, that's hurts! I didn't expect this from you, mister!
"I don't care she will stay in the room next to me, I talked to father and he agreed."
"Did the marquess really agree with this absurdity?"
"Yes! You can go ask him if you want."
He hesitated for a moment there. Even if he went to ask the marquess after he hear that it was a wish of Nasya he would still accept it even if she hadn't told him.
Sir, I think you lost here.
"Then I'm going to consult with the lord about these new changes, my lady. And I heard that you haven't eaten breakfast yet, remember that after an hour you have dance lessons."
"Oh, you don't have to remind me, I know this very well!"
"Then I'm taking my leave."
Until he left he didn't change his expression, he showed his dislike about me but someone who didn't know him meant that he was simply giving his simple opinion. Only Nasya and I know what he was really thinking.
"Let's go, we'll be late for breakfast."
"All right."
If I live here I will meet many characters I know from the novel. So far I have managed to meet two of the heroine's most loyal followers, Spencer and Giselle. Each of them has a special connection with Nasyan because of the words and actions she has performed. If Nasya managed to become the new heroine and touch everyone's hearts with a few simple words, then if I use the same method may be…
Haa no that kind of strategy doesn't suit me. Nasya and Mireya could do it but I am not in the same position as them. Nasya had the knowledge of the original novel and also the support of her new family, and Mireya had the support and love of the prince, and I have nothing.
The room that Nasya prepared for me was beautiful and looked different from all the others, probably because it was all painted white and the furniture was black a simple room but I didn't expect more. Everything I have here is not mine and it scares me. It seems to me that if I don't make myself useful, everything that has been given to me will be taken away from me again like is nothing.
I don't like to show a liking for what I have now, this is not my home and I feel that everything here will be temporary anyway.

It was night, the marquess was locked in his office like every day reviewing some documents when suddenly someone knocked.
"Who is it?"
"It's me father, did you ask for me?"
"Ah yes my daughter, come inside."
"Greeting father why did you ask for me this late at night?"
"I wanted to talk to you about an issue pretty interested."
Hmm, I knew he would call me sooner or later about this issue, but I didn't think he would do it so soon, I believe Spencer should have talked to him and told him about the decision I made to leave the young Rapha to stay in the room next to mine.
Tsk what a nuisance!
"Of course I would also like to talk openly about this."
"Hmm very well let's start then."
Forgive me father but I don't intend to give up on my plan. I will do everything to convince you to be on my side on the path I have chosen and in the end, I will be the only one to emerge victorious from this room.

Mmm .. huff .. huff .. mmm!
[Who are you, why are you following me wherever I go?]
"I'm just following orders that have given me nothing more. You'll do well to stay in just one place where I can catch you and get this job done."
[Haha… hahaha who ordered you to follow me and why? No one in this country knows me and doesn't even know my existence, so I must think that the orders came from above.]
"…"
Tsk Eternia do you still want to get rid of me? What have I done to you that you have to punish me with this kind of fate? You also brought a knight to follow me and kill me huh ?! Eternia, I swear I will find the way to come to you again, and then I will show you what pain really is.
[Won't you talk huh ?! Listen here you idiot knight let's pretend like I didn't see you and leave as if your job is done, I will give you this opportunity as a reward for the trouble you went through finding me if you don't you will regret that you were born!]
"I can't do that."
[Haa, then DIE!]
Ack… huff… huff huh ?!
A dream or memory? I can't say for sure, but that battle gave me a bitter feeling. It was so painful that I could not see the end, but I have a feeling like they both died, the Rapha and even the knight.
On that person's thoughts, I could hear the name Eternia again. I want to know who she is, and why she punish 'that person' with death. One of those above hmm.
I will not solve anything without having a reference, I can only hope that if other memories like this appear to me again, it would be better to show me something that I could understand.
