I Kidnapped the Hero's Women-Chapter 255: Birthday (4)
"Thank you..."
[The evil spirit, 'Kali' shrugs her shoulders in satisfaction.]
Yuri accepts the dog bowl and expresses her gratitude with a trembling expression.
She is very happy inside.
It seems that she is hiding her true feelings because she is too embarrassed to show it.
Although dog bowls are scientifically excellent and have many special features,
due to the public's poor perception, they are only used by a few wise people who recognize their value.
Now that Yuri is also included in that wise group, she cannot help but be happy.
At least in this mansion, she can freely use the excellent dog bowl without worrying about what others think, so her quality of life has greatly improved.
"I will use it well..."
After finishing the meal.
In the meantime, the maids hurriedly shared the three-tiered cake that was completed as dessert. Still, I thought it would last at least a week.
"Huh? What's with your expression, Aslan?"
"It's nothing···."
In an instant, both the first and second stages disappeared, and I was shocked when I saw them slashing the last stage.
I knew that Charlotte, Yuri, and Sylvia ate a lot···.
But even Julia and Irene ate much more than me.
Well, Julia's metabolism must be high since the amount of mana she generates in her body is comparable to that of a great magician.
Irene is also strong enough to rival a sword master with her bare body, so she must need a lot of nutrition···.
I realized that I ate the least here, and I was shocked again.
We had a gift-giving ceremony.
We finished eating.
We shared cake and chatted.
It was just as the birthday party was about to end.
"Ah, Aslan! Take this! It's special because it's your birthday! ···Yo!"
"Ehehe! I prepared it too!"
"···?"
At that moment, right.
After putting down an envelope in front of me, Yulia ran away with her face blushing to the tips of her ears.
Charlotte put the envelopes in my hands and followed Yulia away.
Since we live under the same roof anyway, there's no need to write letters normally.
It seems she wrote them to celebrate her birthday.
Was she secretly jealous of Yuli and her regular letters exchanged?
After the party was over, Irene went back to work.
Yuli naturally ran out into the yard with Charlotte and Yulia.
Now, is it time to open the letters?
"Uh-huh-huh···."
[The evil spirit, 'Kali', is disgusted by your laughter for some reason.]
First, Charlotte's. The envelope seemed to be full, and as soon as I opened it, colored papers poured out.
I looked at them and they were drawings I had worked hard on.
They were mostly drawings of Hulhul, Laura's clone, and Mulmul.
As I looked at them one by one, I started to laugh.
I was certain that Charlotte was not the type of person who would go to art school.
Next is Julia.
When I opened the envelope, a letter written in neat handwriting appeared.
- To Aslan.
- I think this is my first time writing a letter···.
- Today is Charlotte's and my birthday. And it's exactly one year since we met Aslan.
- When I first saw Aslan···
"Master."
"I'm busy right now."
"It's urgent." "I'm in the midst of the emotional moment of reading the first letter Julia wrote to me, but you have something more urgent than that? Okay. Let me hear it."
I was reading the letter while holding back laughter, when Sylvia next to me broke the mood.
How urgent could it be to interrupt the moment of reading Julia's first letter?
Just pretend it's not urgent.
I gritted my teeth and put the letter down for a moment.
"I came to ask because I thought you didn't celebrate my birthday separately. Charlotte and Julia celebrated it, and Yuri also gave me a present. I would like to request that you celebrate my birthday regularly and give me a present."
"Are you a child?"
"I'm not a child. My childhood was completely evaporated without any memories, so I didn't even have the chance. During my teenage years, I worked like a slave for my family with a brand on my neck by someone, so I didn't have any memories at all." "···."
I was thinking of refusing immediately.
I was speechless at Sylvia's pitiful expression.
The one who branded me was me···.
It seemed like she was trying to provoke guilt.
"You take great care of the birthdays of slaves who have been together for a year. I, who branded you more than 7 years ago, am no different from a caught fish now, so there's no need to treat me well, is that it?"
"···."
"Well. That's right. Then I guess there's nothing I can do. I guess I'll have to stay locked in my room and wet my pillow with tears."
"···!"
[The evil spirit, 'Kali', criticizes you greatly, saying that you're bad anyway!]
At that moment, Sylvia suddenly releases her aura and transforms into a child.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight.net or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
It was bearable when she pretended to be pitiful while acting as a pitiful heroine in her adult form. The moment I heard the line in her young voice that she would wet her pillow with tears, I felt my heart pounding wildly.
"Then I'm off..."
"Birthday. Of course I should take care of it. You're not just a simple escort, you've been mortgaged to me. So it would be good for me to take care of your birthday as well. Of course I've been planning to take care of it from the beginning."
"···."
[The evil spirit, 'Kali' nods, saying that you thought well.]
He grabbed Sylvia's wrist as she was about to leave and pulled her closer, then sat her on my lap.
Thinking about it again, it seemed right to take care of Sylvia's birthday as well.
"What would you like as a birthday present?"
"Hmm. First, please remove me from the position of CEO of Vermont Security."
"Sylvia. No matter how young you are now, there are requests that are acceptable and those that are absolutely unacceptable. Think more carefully and answer." "···Yes."
I couldn't help but straighten up at Sylvia's unreasonable request.
Asking her to step down as CEO of Vermont.
It was ridiculous.
"Then... when spring comes, could you go to an amusement park with me?"
"Amusement park? You mean an amusement park?"
"Yes... I've always wanted to go... but there are a lot of rides that I can't ride because of the height restriction... Now that I've lifted my Aura, I might be able to ride them, but I'm too embarrassed to go alone... "
"So you want me to go with you and look like an innocent child holding her brother's or uncle's hand and going to an amusement park?"
"Oh, that's right... It's really embarrassing when you say it like that..."
Ah. I understand perfectly.
Now that I can return to being a child,
but I'm still a little awkward about running around on my own. But it seems like she was embarrassed to ask someone else to go with her, so she needed my help.
"Okay. When the amusement park opens, I'll go with you."
"Really!? Thank you, my lord···!"
Sylvia jumped up and down from my lap, rejoicing.
Of course, she said she'd go with them.
She didn't say she'd go 'just the two of us'.
So it would be okay for Charlotte and Julia to come with her too.
A scene of a young Sylvia holding Charlotte and Julia's hands and running around the amusement park···.
Just imagining it makes me smile.
It's obvious that Sylvia would suffer mental damage if she held hands with children who were much older than her, but of course, that's none of my business, so I decided not to worry about it.
'Then, let's finish reading Julia's letter.'
I guess I've gotten rid of that annoying guy. Now, I picked it up again to read Julia's letter again.
- When I first saw Aslan, I misunderstood you a lot, but now I know you're a good person.
- Even the things that seemed to oppress us at first were all for our sake.
- You call me a slave, but you don't treat me like one at all···.
"Ugh."
You already know that.
You misunderstood me as a villain all through your childhood, and only when you became an adult did you realize that you would understand.
It seems that you've already figured out all my good and deep intentions, so that no one would think I'm not a smart guy.

At that moment, I thought I might shed tears of emotion.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"
"···!?"
At that moment, a shout echoed through the mansion.
Was that Charlotte's voice?
What on earth is going on?
"Sylvia. Carry me."
"Yes."
Carried on Sylvia's back, who had instantly returned to her adult form, she quickly headed towards the direction where the voice had come from.
After leaving the mansion and reaching the back garden, she was finally able to find Charlotte.
"Charlotte! What's going on?"
"Mister, mister! Look at this! An aura is coming out of the Jeoljeolgeom!"
"Jeoljeolgeom···?"
"That's the name I gave to this dagger!"
"···."
[The evil spirit, 'Kali', applauds in admiration, saying that our dark knight is indeed the best!]
Charlotte raised her dagger towards the sky.
Compared to the aura rising from the Jjangsse Jjangsseom, it was definitely smaller, but still, a vivid purple aura surrounded the blade and it was a mess.
No. That black sword is definitely not a holy sword, nor is it made with special materials. It was just an ordinary dagger···?
