Suddenly, Lowell stood up, as if energized. For a moment, her illness was forgotten.
“Everyone dead? No survivors in such a large mansion… It’s impossible.”
Lowell, often confined indoors due to her illness, was naive about the world. But even to her, this situation seemed off.
“There was never a time when everyone was asleep. We always had shifts. They had to keep watch over me at night…”
Lowell often had seizures at night. Her parents always arranged for servants to watch over her in shifts, even after lights out.
“It’s impossible that no one woke up while the mansion was burning. How could no one escape from this large mansion… How…”
Lowell vividly remembered a mill fire in the village. It happened at night. People had wrapped themselves in wet towels to escape, she heard from the servants.
Even in a small mill fire with few residents, people escaped.
But in this large mansion, not a single person got out? Not one?
It’s impossible. This doesn’t make any sense. How could there be no survivors?
“If… unless someone locked the doors from the outside…”
Amidst her chaotic thoughts, this realization stopped Lowell cold.
Suddenly, the answer to her questions became clear. Mutterings turned to certainty in an instant.
‘The royal knight is lying.’
The royal knights were preventing anyone from approaching the burnt mansion. They claimed it was to preserve the scene for investigation, but how could she believe that?
Who knows if they were standing guard like this while the mansion was burning, preventing anyone from escaping?
The realization quickly turned to anger.
Lowell, without a moment’s pause, leapt up to confront the royal knight. She intended to grab the liar by the collar and demand the truth.
“If it weren’t for…”
The sudden intervention of a hand stopped her.
Her anger, initially directed at the royal knight, quickly shifted to the owner of the hand. Lowell glared, ready to bite if the hand didn’t move, but her anger dissolved upon recognizing him.
It was an acquaintance.
A middle-aged gentleman who often visited her father. He stood before Lowell, calming her.
“Calm down, Annet. I understand your feelings, but this fire isn’t his fault.”
“…Annet?”
Lowell inadvertently repeated the unfamiliar name, but the gentleman was quicker.
“I’ll apologize on behalf of the girl. Forgive her rudeness, please.”
“Oh, no problem, Your Grace. Are you acquainted with the girl?”
“As you might know, I had a close relationship with the Hessen family. This girl’s sister worked for the Hessens. I wrote a letter of recommendation. I couldn’t just pass by seeing her in such distress. Please understand her grief over losing her family.”
“Of course, I understand. Completely.”
Understand what? Lowell’s insides still churned with anger, but she didn’t forget to scoff at the royal knight’s cowardice.
All tough in front of a seemingly insignificant girl, but utterly gracious before a Duke.
The gentleman who timely intervened was Duke Jurgen Martinet.
As Jurgen himself said, he had frequent interactions with the Hessens, and thus, a fairly acquainted relationship with Lowell.
As the conversation progressed, Lowell also realized something.
“Annet, sister working as a servant…”
Jurgen was lying about her identity, without batting an eye. Why was he hiding her identity?
The reason soon became clear.
“The Hessen family’s fire was an act of arson.”

Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
