C147
After finishing eating that day, I went back to sleep and dreamed of going to the academy.
Intuitively, I could feel that it was actually about Ethel's first life.
It was the first time I remembered Ethel's memories after receiving the power of the divine beast in the mine, and accepting other powers into my body seemed to bring back memories of Ethel.
In my dream, I, or rather Ethel, studied, made friends, and thought about her career like other students.
I can't say there were no difficult moments, but overall, it was a memory painted with warm colors.
I felt curious again. Where did she disappear to?
The next morning, when I woke up, I felt unusually energetic and moved my body.
I was definitely filled with energy, probably because I received Terence's power.
Well, Lucy said it was poisonous if taken too much at once.
"It's okay, let's get going now."
It was time to wake up those affected by Liena's blessing.
I checked the list I had previously made of the names of the people I needed to wake up.
Among them, there were many people on the list, including Cassius's distant relatives and Duchess Luciano, but one person, in particular, caught my attention.
Someone who would benefit from my blessing as soon as possible, but the problem was that he wasn't ready yet.
"—Ethel-nim, are you awake!"
At that moment, Laura entered my room.
Laura shook what she had in her hand with excitement on her face.
"Today, I found another note in my pocket again!"
A satisfied smile appeared on my face as I checked the content of the note Laura handed me.
With this, all the preparations were completed.
---------------------------
Isaac, whom Liena had been waiting for so long, did not reveal his presence until around noon.
"Liena, are you okay?"
Upon hearing a voice outside the door, Liena, who had fallen onto the bed, ran in that direction.
"Uncle! Why are you coming just now?"
The last time she spoke to Isaac was yesterday at lunchtime, so more than 24 hours had passed.
In other words, Liena was starving.
"Do you starve someone for a day and then ask how they are?!"
Isaac calmly responded to Liena's shout.
"You were the one who said you were going to starve, right?"
"But will you really not give me any food? This is violence and torture!"
"Are you that hungry?"
"Do you need to ask? Of course, I am!"
"I didn't know. I heard you've fasted several times, so I thought you wouldn't mind even for a day."
"My father and brothers never let me go hungry for more than two meals."
Indeed, Liena had never gone hungry for a single meal since being adopted by Cassius.
Even during the hunger strike, the maids, worried that the precious young lady's body would suffer harm, secretly brought her food.
Of course, Duke Cassius and his two sons had no idea about this fact.
Anyway, because of that, it was extremely difficult for her to starve for up to three meals.
In her previous life, she was used to hunger due to living in poverty, but in this life, Liena has experienced a life that is one of the richest in the empire for the past ten years.
Now, it was natural that it was hard to endure without a single meal a day.
"Uncle, this is too much. I was so hungry that I thought my stomach would burst..."
Overwhelmed by the emotion of unexpected difficulties, Liena cried.
"My little bunny, I'm sorry."
Then Isaac spoke gently.
"I didn't even know it was like that. Cheer up because I brought food that our little bunny likes."
She barely managed to suppress the words "If you let me out of here, you wouldn't need to bring all the meals."
Because she was so hungry, she didn't have the energy to fight against Isaac.
"It's okay, give it to me quickly."
Although Liena spoke bluntly, she looked inwardly at the hole with anticipation.
However, her face turned cold when she saw the tray Isaac had pushed toward her.
"W-what is this?"
"Why?"
"These are carrots! And raw carrots!"
"Yes, they are carrots."
"Uncle, don't you know that I hate carrots?"
"Oh, is that so? Why does a bunny hate carrots?"
"I hate them so much that I can't even eat a single bite!"
"Really? Wow, that's surprising. I thought you liked them because you're a bunny."
Liena was shocked and dumbfounded by Isaac's natural reaction.
"What kind of logic is that? Does it make sense for my nickname to be Bunny and for me to also like carrots?"
"Yes, you're a bunny."
"... Fine. Let's not argue anymore. Take this back and give me the bread and salad you gave me yesterday."
"Is there no more? I threw it away because you didn't eat it."
"Then you can bring me another meal."
"I'm sorry, but right now, there are only raw carrots in the mansion."
