Reincarnated into Two Bodies

Chapter 52: Sebastian Out

Deep inside the royal archives, a certain someone was wandering, looking for something. His golden hair bounced slightly with every step he took.

“Sareid… Sareid… Not this one… Is it further back?”

The man was Julient, the Third Prince, otherwise known as the Scholar Prince. He wandered into the royal archive in

For some reason or another, these two adults seemed to buy some of this creep’s words. Was it similar to how old people were more likely to be pulled into a pyramid scheme? Or was there something I was missing?

I knew that I wasn’t great with politics and words in this world, but even I knew this guy had a sly tongue!

Not able to bear to look at it further, I nudged Mother with my elbow. “Mother! Snap out of it! He’s spouting nonsense!”

Mother’s gaze turned to me for a brief moment, her cold demeanor dropping slightly. “R-Right, of course, he is.” She turned her attention back to ‘Sebastian’. “Enough games!” she snapped. “You have until I count to three before I deal with you myself. One—”

‘Sebastian’ let out a light, amused sigh. “This Talent really is limited, isn’t it?” he muttered to himself, just loud enough for me to catch.

“Fine, fine.” He took a step back, then another, his hands still raised in mock surrender. “I’ll take my leave. But remember, Your Grace, my offer still stands,” he added before striding out of the room like he owned the place.

As soon as the doors closed behind him, I let out a breath I didn’t realize I had been holding.

Without wasting a beat, Mother tossed the sword back to the guard who barely caught it as he stumbled forward. She was furious, I could see it in her eyes.

“Yeremiah,” Mother commanded the guard.

“Y-Yes, ma’am?!”

“Bring my husband. Now. And find out who let him into the house… along with Leila.”

“Yes, Ma’am! B-But, before that… Lady Carine?” He turned his head to me.

“Hmm? What is it?” I asked in a strained tone, still tense from the earlier encounter.

“H-Hiegh?! I’m sorry! I-I’ll get going right away!”

He rushed out the door after displaying quite a display of terror. What? Did I say something wrong?

It took a while for me to piece together what he was looking at me for, but I eventually did.
