Inside the portrait, black hair, frozen eyes.
He seemed cold just by looking at him.
Almost like a human refrigerator.
Moreover, his sharp nose seemed to cut even if one just touched the portrait.
‘Just like a Northern Duke.’
The ruthless Duke who only noticed after quite some time that his wife had died.
Unlike the original Atia, she knew well about such a stern personality of the Duke.
Hence, she had no expectation from her husband Casus.
‘Yeah, what’s the use of waiting for Casus a hundred times. Even if I die when I die, since I possessed the Duchess, wouldn’t it be better to enjoy it to the fullest?’
Under the twinkling chandelier, Atia vowed while pushing the food piled high on the plate into her mouth.
The Duke’s estate was expansive.
No, it was so expansive that even if you ride a carriage for a long time, you couldn’t tour the entire place.
‘Wow, even though I had a lot of money, this is the first time I’ve seen such a large plot…….’
In her past life, she was not short of money because she topped her field.
Because the Pilates center she owned was so crowded with members, there were no seats left.
However, the wealth of the Wellington Duke’s family was enough to make her mouth gape.
The scenery from the carriage pulled by two white horses was picturesque.
Half covered by welltended green grass, the white snow was neatly piled up.
Seeing the clean snow with no footprints, she wanted to step on it.
She could see small animals frolicking across the vast Duke’s estate.
“Wow, are the deer running around?”
The maid riding in the carriage with her was puzzled.
Atia, when she first came to the Duke’s house as the Duchess, did not have such fun.
But today’s Atia had a much different feeling.
Isn’t she enjoying it like a child, who was usually weak and always sagged?
At mealtime, contrary to her expectation that she would nibble on food and not eat much, she ate very well.
To the point where the Duke’s servants were surprised.
“Hey, what’s your name?”
“Huh?”
The maid riding in the carriage with her only realized late that Atia was asking her name and widened her eyes.
“Ke, Kesha.”
“Nice name.”
“Thank you.”
Kesha stared at Atia for a moment and tilted her head.
‘It’s strange no matter how I think about it. Is she so happy because she went out after a long time? Even asking for my name like a person who lost their memory.’
Atia’s skin, which hardly saw the sunlight, looked unusually pale.
Kesha felt sorry for Atia who had come to the unfamiliar north from the warm south and had been alone every day.
“Madam, aren’t you cold?”
The Duke’s house, located on the northern border, was cold enough to be covered with snow in places.
Ordinary people who were in warm areas and then came to the north usually couldn’t adapt well.
Especially Atia had a strong aversion to the cold.
“Um…… not really?”
But Atia, who was engrossed in observing the different world outside, had even forgotten that the weather was chilly.
“The weather is cold. Should we go in, Madam? If you catch a cold like this…….”
“Ah, I think I can go on a little more tour…….”
Eating her fill and sitting still, or lying down in a warm room was not something Atia could do.
It didn’t suit her personality. Because she couldn’t bear the itchiness if she didn’t move even a little.
She thought it was a hundred times better than being stuck in the room, no matter how cold it was.
Bang!
A sound of something colliding echoed.
Atia looked towards the sound.
A little distance away, a swordsmanship duel was in full swing.
A onesided assault unfolded before my eyes; a boy was on the offensive, and a knight was purely on the defensive.
The one leading the unidirectional attack was the second son of the Wellington family, Leo.
This year he turned thirteen. The pubescent Leo had black hair and ashen eyes.
At first glance, his appearance resembled that of a not fully grown wolf from a snowy mountain.
Cling!
The wooden sword of the defensive player fell to the ground.
“I have lost.”
The knight, old enough to be the boy’s father, politely bowed his head after kneeling on one knee.
Then, Leo spoke with bravado.
“Bring it on! Isn’t there another one?”
“Your skills have improved significantly, young master.”
“Tch, boring. Now there’s nothing interesting left.”
“…….”
Amid the silence that enveloped the surroundings, Leo, with a dissatisfied mumble, carelessly threw his wooden sword onto the ground.
“I also want to go to the Royal Hunting Competition, but they simply won’t invite me.”
“I’m ashamed.”
“Why are you ashamed? Isn’t all this because my brother has been ostracized among the nobles?”
“Young Master…….”
The boy, who was still young, was unseen by anyone.
And there was hardly anything scarier than an adolescent noble who thought of himself as a grownup.
“Why? Did I say something wrong?”
Again, silence enveloped the surroundings.
Everyone was in a hurry to keep up with Leo’s mood, as it was clear that blood would be shed if his temper flared up.
