The New Duchess
Chapter 104: Finally


Out of the room


father, the man is heading to his sister's room. He'll try to cheer Ai up.


 Tok Tok no sautan. That guy


dare to open and go inside. I see Ai is


sitting pensively staring at the walls and windows of the small room.


Dalbert exhaled


rough breathing, he did not feel strange about this scene. When he was accompanying


Ai in Grafton's butler's lodge, the woman also often did the same.


“ Ai” Dalbert calling


slow down so that his sister knows his presence. But Ai did not reply, the man


then walk over and sit on the bed. He patted his sister's back.


It was clear that Ai had a tear that had not dried. This sister must be


crying all day.


“ hey, “Dalbert try


communicating with this woman, she had already established the heart that she would


always on his side with his sister.


Ai looked at him weakly,


the woman seemed to have no spirit of life.


“ are you okay?” Dalber


wiping Ai's wet cheeks.


“ they say Axton


dead, they all surrendered. Then what can I do? Who would


helping me find Axton” the voice was so raucous, Ai started to tear up


any more. He seemed easy to cry now, was close to


the family felt that he could not endure his sadness anymore.


Seeing his sister


kept crying Dalbert immediately hugged her slowly. He stroked Ai's back smoothly.


“ do you want to take a walk?


So that you do not feel sad like this, let's” Dalbert immediately pulled his brother's hand.


He'll comfort this one-of-a-kind sister. Let it be even though it will be huge


the consequences he would bear, Dalbert did not care anymore.


Ai was initially not interested


with his brother's invitation, but seeing how enthusiastic Dalbert makes


the woman with a little weight finally complied.


“ where are we going?” ask


Ai who had her hand in Dalbert's hand. They walk in more and more


into the forest, and away from the building area. Walk through the path


a very small one with a variety of trees fencing it.


“ you'll be happy later”


that phrase had a lot of meaning to Dalbert. He's been a while


being here, it is very familiar and know very well the situation and what


happen.


They keep walking


up to a hill, there is a view of the forest and its surroundings emblazoned


vividly. Ai was so astonished, yet pitched she saw such a thing


these.


In front of them


the field with the middle part there is a fairly wide lake.


The orange yellow afternoon sky greeted them. Ai was silent for a moment closing her eyes


and let his black mane fly in the wind.


The position of the lake is rather


low, if you want to see it closer they have to go down a few meters.


However Ai and Dalbert choose to stay on top, they are under a


willow Tree with thick leaves.


“ how do you like?”


Dalbert looked at Ai with a bright face, he could also clearly see


the change in her sister.


“ like it very much,


thank you Dalbert” Ai was so fascinated by the sight, the woman


hugging her brother for a moment then she sat down on the grass.


Dalbert sat down


side by side with Ai, even the man was not just sitting, but lying down


on the grass staring at the afternoon sky so interesting.


“ it feels so peaceful here”


said Ai while looking away at the sun that began to fall.


The mood became quiet,


just the sound of the wind and making the leaves rub against each other. They enjoy so much


the mood this afternoon. Each one was busy with their thoughts drifting far away


brings unrest. Makes the heart seem temporarily empty. Doesn't feel Ai either


lying down, he closed his eyes.


In that silence Ai


who from noon was busy crying, finally unconsciously slept on the expanse


brother's gone. It was getting dark, in the sky was a red shard.


How could Dalbert leave him here, why didn't he


woke him.


Ai immediately stood up, she


staring around. Confused how to get home. The woman stepped up somehow


where, he looked maybe his brother was nearby but blocked by trees.


In the midst of searching


Ai seemed to catch the sparkle of the lamp, down there. A little closer to the lake,


although not on the edge. Ai did not know that there was still a cottage here to take place


stayed. He just thought maybe this was also included in the building


their area.


With a slow step


the woman immediately approached the building, she did not know if without


to his knowledge a man peeking out from the crack of a tree was watching


himself. Who else if not Dalbert had deliberately brought his sister here


not only did he comfort her, but he had a special purpose.


Dalbert is not


leaving Ai, she just monitors for her plan to succeed without


take a lot of risks. He saw Ai getting closer to the destination, the cottage


that's why Dalbert brought his sister here.


Smoke looks like it's billowing


from the chimney of the cottage, there is also a little lighting from the candle


and the lantern lights. It clearly indicates that there is life.


“ what might Dalbert


there?” ai's guman to himself. He would scold his brother that way


up there, he could casually leave her alone asleep. Look out


just.


Ai's distance is very


close by, he paused for a moment to watch every corner of the looking hut


brother's presence. It's like hearing a faint sound.


“ Night wind is getting


taut, you better get into” Ai can hear it clearly.


Women were getting more cautious in stepping, it was definitely not Dalbert's voice.


“ hem” Ai stop


in his footsteps, the voice was so familiar, even though it was only deheman.


Ai is getting closer, she


it was right behind the cottage. From this close distance Ai could smell


the aroma of the medicinal herb was so thick, it seemed like the person inside was boiling


drugs.


“ the cure is done,


you can pet it while it's still warm” again the sound gets louder


and vividly. Ai could guess if they were on the front side of the cottage. And that


make Ai get closer to the source of the sound.


Ceramic twang sound,


that person was taking the intended medicinal herb.


“ it feels this medicine is not


there useya” Ai's heart is racing, the sound feels so real.


The woman knew exactly who the voice belonged to, she seemed to be hallucinating


abrupt.


From the wall, woman


he saw a man in a simple dress and a coat


he was sitting on the terrace


the cottage was putting a glass while beside him there was another person who was Ai


believe a waitress who makes potions.


“ let me help you in,


night wind is not good for your body” Ai watched closely,


how weak the man in the coat stood up to go inside.


At that time Ai was sure that she was not


hallucinating, once turned the body of the man's face clearly plastered


ahead of him. His feet seemed stiff suddenly, even his tears immediately fell


without him noticing.


“ be careful ” the waiter


holding the shoulder of a coat-mouthed man because of his unbalanced steps.


Ai's lips are hoarse, though,


how can this reality seem to stop time. Amongst


believe it and not, the woman very clearly saw the man's face.


“ A..Ax.ton” Ai's voice


stuck, so weak. It can be heard by both men, with


his shocked face they immediately turned towards the voice. They're both glued together, they're,


dumbfounded. All the dreams.
