Feeling so unfamiliar being held by someone, Larissa forgot even to be sad. She squirmed uncomfortably until Guinevere adjusted her hold, making her calm down.
The funeral service ended in the meantime.
The priest recited the final prayer, and the coffin was lowered.
As the choir sang a dirge and the grave was being covered with dirt, someone began to sob, prompting others who were just looking around to burst into tears.
The priest, accustomed only to the quiet and solemn funerals of the nobility, frowned but could not rebuke their grief.
Amidst the many sobs, Guinevere thought,
‘At least her journey won’t be lonely. So many are crying for her.’
Whether they were truly Marina’s friends or just there for the bread given at funerals, Guinevere had no way of knowing. Still, she hoped they would pray for Marina at this funeral.
Guinevere turned away after watching the mourners for a moment.
“Let’s go. William.”

“Yes.”
Larissa involuntarily looked at the tall boy called William, then quickly lowered her head when their eyes met.
Pretending to sleep on the great witch Rodante’s shoulder, she hadn’t expected his gaze to linger.
Larissa regretted it. Of all things, she had stolen the wallet of her mother’s friend’s son.
‘I’m sure I’ll be scolded. Maybe even bullied.’
As long as she wasn’t kicked. That would hurt too much. With these thoughts, Larissa worried about the future but soon fell asleep.
Guinevere carefully laid the sleeping Larissa in the carriage. She thought Larissa hadn’t cried, but saw dry tear stains around her eyes.
It was absurd that a mere seven-year-old knew how to cry in secret.
“What will you do with the child?”
William, sitting opposite her, was gauging her reaction.

Even though he had turned back time and forgotten about Larissa, he instinctively seemed to care. Guinevere smirked.
“Worried?”
William didn’t deny it.
“She’s not really your mother’s friend. That woman.”
“Right.”
“I’ve never seen her before.”
“I met her for the first time yesterday.”
‘You’re not the kind to befriend someone you just met, right?’
William skillfully swallowed the words he wanted to say. His mother was unpredictable, but she had never been this unexpected.
No, in a way, she seemed like the simplest person in the world. All her incomprehensible actions were linked by the thread of magic.
“Are you taking her to… teach her, perhaps?”

William was suspecting the little girl might possess extraordinary magical talent.
“No.”
But that wasn’t the case. Moreover, the answer that followed left William dumbfounded.
“I’m going to marry her to you.”
“…….”
After a moment of silence, William managed to gather his thoughts.
“What?”
“I said I’m going to marry her to you.”
“….What?”
“Are you deaf?”

William barely restrained himself from shouting out loud, “Are you insane?”
But he couldn’t hold it in. William exclaimed in a low voice.
“Are you insane?”
“…….”
“She’s too young.”
“She’s young now. But 10 years will pass quickly.”
Guinevere stroked Larissa’s forehead and closed her eyes. It felt like the fatigue of the lost 50 years was hitting her all at once.
Who are you calling insane? An insane person. Is there another madman who would stab his own heart in front of his mother? Guinevere sighed as if speaking to herself.
“You’re going to fall in love with this girl. Even if I object, you won’t listen. Not even death will be able to separate you two. If death tries to take her away, you’d turn back time, even if it means offering your heart…”
William was at a loss for words.

His mother often made cringe-worthy statements that sounded more adolescent than a teenager, but most people praised her pompous nonsense as the great wisdom of a powerful witch, backed by her abilities.
But this time, it was really too much.
“Don’t say things like that outside, please. Really….”
Stop trying to act cool. It’s embarrassing.
However, Guinevere, already asleep, didn’t hear her son’s complaints. Only William, wide awake, thumped his chest in frustration.
‘This damn house. I’m going to run away!’
