I became a Sick Nobleman

Chapter 7

"Cassion."

Ganien called Cassion, who was heading to Ruel's room.

"What's the matter? Do you have any inconvenience?"

"No, it's not something like that, but I have something to say."

"I don't know what kind of grandeur you've been holding on to me since this morning."

Cassion took the watch out of his arms and checked it. There were 10 minutes left.

Ruel informed Cassion to wake him up at 8 o'clock, so Cassion had to wake him up on the dot.

Instead of imagining his heart pounding if failed to complete the command, Cassion said.

"Keep it short."

"I apologize in advance for being rude. Why don't you join me? I don't mind if it's not right now. But later..."

"I refuse."

Cassion cut it off with a single stroke.

Ganien, who suggested it, seemed to not understand.

"I suggested it because I knew the time you spent with Ruel wasn't that long. But I didn't know you'd say no at once."

"Because you're a guest here, I'm putting up with this displeasure."

Cassion took a step without looking back.

"Sigh, what a waste."

Ganien looked at his back and scratched his neck.

If he had met Cassion first, they could have teamed up.

The Lord, assassins, and raids.

The combination of these three things made the relationship between Ruel and Cassion so strange.

But it certainly wasn't a close relationship.

'...You mean there's something strange about Ruel?'

In Ganien's eyes, there was nothing special about Ruel that could capture Cassion's heart.

No.

In Ganien's eyes, Ruel was just powerless.

'Did I see something wrong? Is there something else I'm missing?'

I thought it would be better to see Ruel again.

5 days later.

My eyes were filled by the red sunset.

The sky was really wide, standing on the ground with my two feet.

I kept my mouth shut because I felt something was going to rise up from the inside.

I did it.

I did it. I walked.

I walked over to the peak and smiled at Cassion who was behind me.

Cassion laughed all the way up to that point.

"Well done."

"Honestly, I didn't expect you to do it so soon."

Ganien clapped his hands in admiration.

"Thanks to your help, I did it. Thank you."

With a nod, I thanked the two.

"Mr. Ruel, please sit down for a moment."

Cassion walked into the mansion with his mouth raised, to see what was so exciting.

I saw the backyard where Cassion had gone.
