Even if you succeed in jobless reincarnation and time magic, you must live life to the fullest.

But this is a necessary pain in growth.

If we don't do this, Alice won't be able to grow, and if she can't grow, she won't be happy.

I cannot let my pampering ruin Alice.

……

I used fire magic to burn through the ropes and came to Alice's side.

She had a nosebleed, her eyes were glazed, and she was muttering something to herself.

Upon closer listening, one could hear phrases like "I will never forgive them," "I'll tell Grandpa," and other offensive and terrifying words.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Alice, it is precisely because you said such things at a time like this that you suffer so much.

I reached out and touched the part of Alice's hand.

It feels so familiar.

The same sensation was felt when I did those things to Alice.

My stomach churned, and I almost vomited.

Perhaps noticing my pale face, Alice's gaze became somewhat unfocused.

……

The rest of the story is self-explanatory.

In short, after doing the same thing as in my previous life, I successfully escaped from the room with Alice.

They boarded the carriage and headed towards Roya.

Along the way, Alice became quite obedient.

I told her not to yell or scream, and that she had to listen to me and stay by my side obediently until we got home.

Alice did as she was told.

But this obedient and pitiful Alice didn't make me happy; instead, it made my stomach churn even more.

His apology to Alice, his own regret, and his pain surged wildly within him.

Alice...

I'm so sorry.

However, let's work together for a happiness that's even more distant.

……

Alice's perspective.

This is the first time in my life I've been so scared.

It revealed an embarrassing side.

But Rudy didn't laugh at me. Instead, he seriously told me to listen to him so that I could get home safely.

So I forced myself to endure it and followed his instructions.

Rudy took very gentle care of me.

Although they encountered kidnappers on the way, Rudy managed to stop them, and then Gilead was taken care of by the arriving Gilead.

If it weren't for Rudy, I'd probably be a slave.

But as long as you listen to Rudy, you'll be safe.

Rudy is so reliable...

He's two years younger than me, yet he's so reliable. No wonder my father made him his tutor.

When the sun rises.

With Gilead's escort, we finally returned to the manor.

As soon as I entered the gate, I collapsed onto the ground, completely exhausted.

I just can't get up...

The maids tried to come and help me up.

My gaze fell on Rudy. Despite having been through a fierce battle and taking care of me the whole way, he was still standing perfectly fine.

tsk...

He's a really reliable guy.

So I chased away the maid who came to help and forced myself to stand up.

"We agreed to talk before I got home, so can we talk now?"

"Yes, you can speak now."

Rudy responded calmly.

I took a deep breath.

"I'll make an exception and allow you to call me Alice!"

"what?

"It's an exception!"

I saw a relieved smile on Rudy's face.

I don't understand the meaning of that smile.

The next moment, I fell backward while still standing.

Before I completely lost consciousness, I think I heard Rudy's voice.

他说:

"Sorry……"

Why should I say sorry?

I must have misheard.

After all, he had absolutely no reason to say that.

18. Imitate the kitten

after that.

The housekeeper was apprehended.

After returning safely, Philip and I discussed it and decided to put all the blame on Gilead.

The reason, naturally, is the same as in my previous life: to protect me.

While Philip and I were talking about the tutor.

"I heard about it!"

Mr. Sauros kicked the door open, rushed in, and frantically patted my head.

"You saved Alice!"

"No, it was Gilead who did it all by himself, it has nothing to do with me."

"You brat, how dare you lie to me!"

"It was His Excellency Philip who instructed me to do this."

"Philip!"

With a single, righteous punch, Saloth smashed Philip's face to pieces.

very scary.

You didn't hold back at all. Alice learned her bad habits from you, didn't she?

"You scoundrel! He didn't even utter a single word of thanks to the person who saved his daughter! Is he just going to teach him some boring aristocratic acting?"

Philip rolled over and got up, then knelt calmly on the ground.

“Father, although Paul has severed ties, he still inherits the bloodline of the Grerat family. Therefore, his son Rudius also inherits the Grerat family bloodline and is a member of our family. Rather than formal rewards, I think it is better to treat him gently as a family member.”

Hehe, that sounds like a very high-sounding statement.

However, Phyllis's approach was correct.

I don't want to get involved in the power struggles between nobles.

Here, my role is merely that of a tutor.

Afterwards, Salos summoned Alice to the drawing room because I demanded that she personally bow to me and beg me to serve as her governess.

This is a necessary period of training.

Ok……

Actually not.

I wanted to see Alice imitate a kitten.

"Alice, if you need to ask someone for a favor, you must show sincerity!"

Then, Alice put on an unhappy expression.
