The Count Family's Young Master
Chapter 39 - Walking in the Air (4)

"K-Sister?!" Dina exclaimed in shock at the bloody nose of Valias. Valias in another place also frowned in surprise to find himself nosebleed.

How many times has this been?

Valias thinks he doesn't have to count it.

"T, Doctor. Do I need to call a doctor? A, I'll call Lika!" Dina was about to run but a hand was holding her shoulder.

"no need. It'll be over soon." Valias said. Groped the pants pocket and took out a handkerchief from there.

He doesn't feel dizzy. He really felt fine and was astonished why Valias was bleeding.

"Is there anything you need?" valias asked as he rubbed his hands and the top of his mouth.

Dina aghast. "U, Uh, no. I just want to see brother."

His sister was back. Together with Alister they arrive at the mansion but after that Dina hears that Valias comes to the mage at the Bardev residence and then goes back away. Without Dina knowing where.

Dina was walking moodyly in the hallway when she saw Alister cross paths with her and gave her a smile. Seeing the whereabouts of Alister Dina guessed Valias had already returned and immediately ran into the man's room.

Valias looked at Dina still with a handkerchief on her nose. "I'm sorry I broke away from you and Danial before."

Dina who heard that raised her head in shock and immediately quickly shook her head while shaking her hands. "No! That's all right! Brother must be busy.."

Dina remembers her return trip with Danial before.

Both Dina and Danial were sitting quietly in their seats without anyone making a sound.

"About, where did you go?" Dina's voice broke the silence.

Danial who had not expected the question would come out of Dina's mouth was startled a little before sighing silently.

"Of course."

His brother was a mysterious person from the beginning. The change created shock but also happiness.

Maybe Danial didn't show it. But just like Dina, she also had the desire to be close to Valias.

Although Valias is quiet and has an aura that keeps people away from him, in just one look Danial can tell that his older brother Valias Bardev is a smart young man.

When she sees her brother almost never coming out of his room to write and just out of his room to go to the reading room, Danial knows that Valias is a smart and reading person.

In just one look Danial could guess that Valias was someone who had an extremely vast knowledge in his head.

When Danial first encountered Valias in the reading room, Danial could see the focus Valias had in the book he read.

The sight was something that Danial had never previously thought would be seen by him.

Her brother, standing in front of a bookshelf with a book in his hand.

His eyes were a little soft but also sharp at the same time. Read the book in his hands with great precision.

The day Valias spoke to him for the first time, Danial felt that he had finally seen the scene once again. But after Danial thought again, even though what he saw was the same person and with the same pose, he said,

They both look different.

The difference lies in the eyes of both.

Her brother, looks like a different person in the other sights.

Danial gets his favorite reading from Valias.

When she saw her brother on that day, she knew Valias was someone with a vast amount of knowledge and Danial wanted to be like her brother.

He began to visit the reading room of the building where he lived. Read every book he found on the shelf.

Several times passed her brother in the reading room, Danial began to be curious about what books his brother read.

Secretly paying attention to every book her brother touched whenever her brother was in the reading room with her. Leaving the book she had read and quickly grabbing the book that her brother had previously returned by Valias as soon as Valias came out to return to her room.

The books that Valias reads are never the same.

On the first day Valias would read a book on economics. The next day Valias would read a book on astronomy. And the other day, he would read a book about politics.

Unlike Danial and Dina who had teachers like Mallory who forced them to read the textbooks, Valias, her brother, read the books on her own accord.

Danial saw Valias as a man who thirsted for science. And that made Danial admire her brother very much.

He wants to be like Valias.

If Valias likes to read, then Danial will force himself to cultivate the pleasure of reading in him.

On that unforgettable day, Danial for the first time saw the room of Valias.

It was filled with books and papers full of writing.

Danial.

All the papers, written from the first day of Valias' arrival at their residence.

Only four months have passed. And all the papers full of writing were already there.

Valias, write those papers every day without a significant break. Happy four months.

Even in his 15 years of life Danial had never written that much.

His brother, Valias, is on a different level.

If he bled out from his nose for writing those papers, then it was appropriate for someone to widen their eyes.

Valias had been a mysterious figure from the beginning. But he then becomes even more mysterious as he changes.

Although Danial was puzzled by her brother's sudden change, she did not mind him.

But since their departure to the palace, they,

No. gabe. Since his brother's return from the palace, after being interrogated by his Highness the Crown Prince, Valias's behavior has become increasingly suspicious of Danial.

Her brother travels a lot. And always go home at the beginning of the day or in the middle of the night.

Like today.

His sister showed a normal attitude. He invited her and Dina to come out together.

A walk in the city, it was fun for him.

Although Valias did not say much and only responded to Dina's enthusiasm with a smile and short remarks, Danial was able to see her brother.

He always set his eyes on Valias throughout their strolling activities.

That was because Valias had a charisma that made Danial unable to take his eyes off.

Valias always has the confidence that emanates from him.

Attention to those who see it. Especially those near him. Like Danial.

Dina may not feel it. Because he was a child and only saw Valias as his missing biological brother.

But in Danial's eyes, his older brother Valias was someone who intimidated.

Valias is a genius and can do anything he wants.

That made Danial always look towards Valias. Find out everything her sister did.

For then he replicated. Then he made it as a command.

Her sister's been out of the house lately. Making Danial no longer able to see her brother from a distance.

What is my sister really doing? Danial was curious.

He wants to know. But at the same time, she did not want to disturb her brother.

Her brother was someone who always had things to do. Even all that paper, even though Danial can't figure out what it is,

He knows. That it's something very important.

It was so important that her brother would pull a lot of blood out of his nose but still push himself to write. Do not want to stay away from paper and pen even if only for a few seconds.

His older brother even caught the attention of crown prince Hayden and his family.

Prince Wistar even approached Valias to befriend him.

Danial. That her brother was a figure that would exert a great influence on Hayden.

And by the time that happened, Danial wanted to stand by her brother's side.

Dina looked at Danial who looked so preoccupied with her thoughts.

Dina played both hands. He knows Valias must be busy. Looking at the silent Danial Dina could tell that Valias must be doing something important. He has no time to play with him.

When they got home, Danial went first to the reading room. Leaving herself with Lika.

Dina is sad. He thought today would be a fun day. Spending time with her brother.

But apparently it has to end. Valias did not come home with them and instead went to another place with Alister on a different train.

Dina was excited when she heard her sister was back. Before being disappointed when she found out her brother was leaving.

But now, at least Valias was already back in front of him.

Despite the conditions that made Dina worried.

"Is, is brother sick?" Ask Dina worriedly. Face brightens.

Valias who got the question raised his eyebrows.

"no? Why do you think so?"

Which is actually ridiculous because everyone can certainly see the blood coming out of his nose. How would anyone consider him okay?

Dina played both fingers. "Is my sister tired? A, I heard brother just came back from somewhere this morning. But, but then I asked brother to accompany me to the city. What, is sister exhausted? Is this my fault? Is, is your brother sick because of me?" Dina had a clear face looking up towards Valias. That made Valias flabbergasted.

"What's? No. gabe. Of course it's not your fault. Why do you think so?" Valias told. "Not to worry. I'm it's okay. I'm not tired. After all, the first one to ask me to go to town was me. You're not wrong anything. Don't think about things that don't-no, understand?" Valias patted Dina on the shoulder. Awakened with something but then immediately grateful when she realized the hand she used to pat Dina was already clean from the troublesome red liquid from her nose.

Look at me making a little boy worry.

Valias breathed out without a sound.

Dina lowered her head glumly. Slowly raised his face again. "Danial said brother from somewhere this morning. Can I know what you've done? Where's brother sleeping?" Tanya Dina was curious.

"Uh, I," Valias was confused as to how she should answer Dina's question. Should he answer that he had released children of Dina's age who were locked up underground and sold into slavery?

Valias thinks that's not the right thing.

"I'm meeting someone."

"Who?"

Dina's question made Valias confused. "Crown son."

"Crown prince?? Then, brother stayed at the palace??"

"Yes." Yeah." Valias nodded. Dina looked at Valias in admiration. His depression disappeared instantly and was replaced by great curiosity. "Are you close to the royal family?"

Valias.

Are we close? I don't think so.

Valias only helps Frey rebuild Hayden and gather strength for the fight.

Valias is only a maid so they are not close.

"No. I only work for the noble Frey."

"Sister works for the crown prince??"

Dina looked at Valias in admiration. Although she does not know many things but she knows working for the royal family—crown prince, let alone—means her brother is a great person and very admired.

Dina feels Valias is great and amazing.

That made Dina's marketing become more and more so. "What are you doing with the crown prince?"

"I-That,"

Valias was confused as to how he should answer.

But before Valias was confused further Dina covered her mouth with both hands.

"Ah, I shouldn't ask too many questions! Dad always said that work is not something that can be discussed carelessly. I-I won't ask you again." Dina shakes. "Me, amazed at my sister. Brother is a great man!" He smiled brightly.

"Well.." Valias feels awkward.

In fact, he was not as good as Dinah thought.

But then does he have to explain the truth? Valias thinks it's not necessary.

Dina doesn't need to know.

"Hm."

Valias lowered his chin when he felt the liquid from his nose not stopping.

Not many. But it also doesn't stop.

"Dina, I think I should sit down."

Valias hopes to sit down with himself. His body would become more relaxed and make the blood on his nose stop flowing.

"ah! You have to sit down!" Dina pulled Valias' hand and led her towards the bed.

"Sit down!" said it. Valias, who was planning to sit, sat himself on the edge of the bed. Noticing Dina who was standing still watching him in front of her.

Valias put on a small smile. Though obstructed by a handkerchief under his nose. "You sit down."

Dina's eyes widened. "Really?"

"Yes." Yeah." Valias nodded. "Alister will be here soon to bring food. We can eat them together." He patted the bed beside her. Tells Dina to sit with him.

Dina saw it instantly take off her shoes and climbed up the mattress enthusiastically.

He sat himself down and positioned himself beside Valias.

Dina lifted her head to the side. Looking at Valias who was smiling towards him. Dina lowered her head timidly.

"Um, where's that brother from?"

"I'm going to the southeast area where we live."

Dina raised her head to know. "Our place of residence?"

Valias nodded. "Yes." Yeah."

"I met a boy your age." He then spoke.

"Really??"

"Yes. Her name is Fee."

Valias turned to look at Dina. Smiling at the thought of the two would definitely be good friends.

"Maybe I'll introduce you to her someday."

"What's he like?"

"Hm. How about you see it for yourself?"

Dina started to get excited.

"All right! I'll see him!"

But suddenly gloomy later. "What, will my sister be with me?"

Valias raised his eyebrows confused. But then realize something. Put on a small smile.

"Of course."

Dina smiled broadly.

Tok

The two people sitting on the edge of the bed both turned their heads. Seeing Alister who still had a pose knocking on the door with a smile on his face.

"Your food, young master." Alister pushed the wheel table towards the two of them.

"Have you eaten?" Ask Valias.

"It." Dina nodded cheerfully.

"No problem, young master. I brought you a snack for young lady Dina." Alister opens the food lid. Shows a plate containing a cream cake with berries on it.

"Aah!" Dina directly took the plate with the cake. Also the fork from the table that Alister brought. Put a piece of cake in his mouth.

"Don't kid!"

Valias chuckled at Dina's enthusiasm. Noticing his blood flow that had stopped, he let out a sigh of relief without a sound.

"I see you're bleeding again, young master." Alister's voice sounded. Without Valias even raising his face he could already imagine Alister's smiling face.

"Hm." Valias hopes that his drizzle this time will be his last. He's feeling tired.

Knowing his blood had stopped, for some reason it made Valias feel extremely exhausted.

He felt pain all over his body and he began to feel drowsiness enveloping himself. It put him to sleep at that moment.
