Chapter 54: Uncle Albert's Position is at the Bottom 2
When we reach the treatment center, all the doctors and the nurses have already gathered to greet us as usual.
Ellen: “Even though I already said that the Director will be enough to greet us………”
The way they greet us is extremely grand, like greeting a feudal lord. It’s way too conspicuous. Especially since Father wants to hide my existence, their extravagance and grand greeting are just like spreading the news about our visit. But they do this because they genuinely have been yearning for a visit. I understand their feelings, so there is nothing that we can do about it.
Sauvell: “We come to discuss something important, so everyone, please return to your own post.”
Sauvell claps his hands in a familiar manner. The doctors and nurses return to their own posts, leaving behind the Director by himself. The Director bows politely to greet us.
Director: “I’m truly sorry.”
Sauvell: “It’s alright, don’t worry. Today we have something important to discuss. Let’s head to the conference room.”
Director: “Very well, my Lord.”
Then all of us head into the conference room.
Vaan: “Princess, I’m going to scout the surrounding area.”
Suddenly Vaan appears to ask for permission.
Vaan: “Please call me if anything happens.”
Ellen: “Alright. Vaan also, please take care of yourself”
As I send him off with a smile, Vaan pats my head before he leaves. Kai who is standing behind us is looking at our interaction while frowning. He wants to have the same bond with Ellen as Vaan. He determines to work on it from now on.
In some other parts of the dominion, a group of people is having some conversation. They are talking in a dim and quiet alley where no other person can be seen.
“Is there any rumor about the Vankriff doctor? “
“There are some terrible rumors. There are rumors that there is spirit’s involvement.”
“What does that mean?”
“There is a rumor that the princess of the Vankriff family is the one who creates the medicine. The princess has a contract with a healing spirit, and that healing spirit creates the medicine and gives it to the princess. “
“…………”
The credibility of this rumor is pretty high. There is a famous hero who has a contract with a great spirit that comes from the Vankriff family. There is a possibility that the princess who carries the hero’s bloodline will be able to have a contract with a spirit.
“In that case, does getting the princess necessary to get in touch with the healing spirit?”
“……It seems so.”
“Then what should we do? The Vankriff family is like a fortress. I heard that even the maids are highly skilled. “
“It will be fine. Because the princess crafts the medicine, you won’t be able to get it easily at the treatment center. She goes to the city to bring them,” said the man while smiling meaningfully.
After hearing this information, the other man also smiles.

Laffilia is in the middle of doing some assignments from the governess when a maid comes in with a letter with a familiar wax-sealed of Prince Gadriel.
Laffilia: “From Gadriel? What is it about?”
Maid: “My lady, addressing His Highness by his name is inappropriate. “
Laffillia: “That’s so troublesome. If I call him like that, then I have to address Rasuel properly too. We are close friends, so it’s fine. Gadriel and Rasuel will allow me to call them casually. Can you please keep your mouth shut?”
While ignoring the maid’s advice, Laffillia happily holds the letter into her embrace. She expels the maid out of her room before she opens the letter with a paper knife. After reading the contents of the letter, Laffillia’s face turns red.
Laffillia: “Wh-what to do……What should I wear?”
Even though she is alone by herself in the room at the moment, she becomes restlessly looking around at her surrounding. She tries to remember all the clothes that she has in her mind while panickily trying to dress herself up in a cute style.
Laffillia: “This won’t do because I’m going to sneak out…”
She finally dresses up as a cute town girl. While holding the letter on her chest, she becomes really excited about the appointment.
When Van catches the voices that are carried by the wind, his ears start to twitch. It comes from the corner of the town. Van narrows his eyes and starts to listen to the voices carefully. After some time has passed, he wrinkles his eyebrows and feels worried about something. Right after that, a gust of wind blows. Van let himself away with the wind and disappears.
