I Became an Extra Who Died Instead of the Main Character

41 – Side) Adele Listonia (5)

Dagdak- Dagdak-

Machaan heading to Count Kindred’s house.

While suffering from unknown anxiety. She was heading to the Kindred family.

The news she received yesterday of Ryan’s death seemed to be calling her.

“They have already broken up, so why are you trying to leave?”

“Yes, Adele. Listen to Dad.”

Although her parents didn’t understand her when she said that she would visit Countess Kindred.

Even she couldn’t understand why she was trying to find her.

“I’m sorry. I’ll be right back.”

Even if she couldn’t understand it with her head. Her body was already seated in the carriage.

She didn’t know either. She wonders why she is riding this carriage now. Her relationship with Ryan must have already ended.

The past didn’t matter. Even in the past she said that she and Rihanna were the best childhood friends in the world. It was none other than Lian who cut off that relationship coldly.

She cut her deep in her chest and it was her Rihanna who pushed her away.

“Surely… I did…”

I’m sure that’s the case. Why is she now heading to Count Kindred’s house, where her funeral will be held?

And… Why the hell does her chest hurt so much? Thinking that she had dried up, she wondered if tears were about to come out of her eyes.

She didn’t know.

***

The carriage ran nonstop until it reached Count Kindred’s house.

When she got off the carriage at her destination, she looked around and was overcome with a strange feeling.

“······It’s been a while here too.”

In the past, he was Countess Kindred, who had come to visit at least occasionally because of Lian. She hadn’t been around since she started taking the heir class in earnest.

Countess Kindred, who looked around her for the first time in a while, lost all her lively atmosphere whenever she came. She exuded a gloomy, melancholy air.

It was only after experiencing her atmosphere that she could feel the fact that the obituary she received was the truth.

“······Princess of Listonia? Are you the Princess of Listonia?”

As she looked around, someone in black mourning clothes spoke to her.

“······Deacon Alfred?”

“You remember. Long time no see.”

The identity of that someone was Alfred, the butler of Count Kindred. She was recognizable because she had come to Count Kindred’s family quite a few times in the past.

“The princess must have heard the news, but… The first boy passed away.”

“····.”

“It upset the Count a lot, but Master Lian was always healthy without any pain… Maybe it’s because of us.”

“What do you mean it’s because of the butler…?”

“Ever since the princess and the boy broke off their marriage, our servants have been treating the boy as someone who doesn’t exist.”

“····.”

“There were also rumors that the count abandoned the young master, and there were many people who were dissatisfied with the poor young master’s behavior.”

From noble mtl dot com

As he said that, Alfred’s eyes were stained with guilt.

“The young master is treated as a non-existent person, and the meals are not properly prepared. ······It’s only natural that you get sickness that you didn’t have before.”

“····.”

“I… Should have been more careful. My negligence…”

Seeing Alfred’s sincere regret as if he didn’t know why he did it.

She also felt her heart heavy.

Her butler, who was wiping her own eyes with her handkerchief, said as if realizing that she was in front of her.

“Oops, the old one talked too long. Let me guide you.”

As if Alfred asked him to follow him, he slowly started walking ahead, and she quietly followed him.

“······After you broke up with me… How has Lian been?”

“Your master hasn’t left the count’s residence since your last visit to the Duke of Listonia.”

“Never… You mean?”

“Yes. You never left.”

I never went out. Doesn’t that mean that she has lived only in her count’s family ever since she last met her?

“As if regretting the past behavior she had done. She spent most of her time in a secluded room in the deepest part of the county house.”

“····.”

“I should have realized then that the young master came back…”

“······Lian is back. What do you mean by that?”

She even thought of Lian, who must have been living in the most secluded room of the Count’s family for a while. She had no choice but to ask hastily at the lamentation of her butler, which she heard quietly.

Lian… Is back?

“You may not know, but… The young master’s diary was found in the remote room where he had been.”

“Diary…?”

“A child named Stella discovered what was magically hidden in the master’s desk.”

“Hidden?”

When I expressed my doubt that I had hidden the diary, Alfred nodded her head in reply.

“Yes. You probably expected that you wouldn’t be able to find it even if you hid it like this… But it was found.”

“Then the contents of the diary…”

“In that diary, the reason why the young master suddenly changed and when he tried to come back were all written down.”

“····.”

“And our mansion, which learned the whole situation from the diary… As you can see now, it is filled with sadness at the thought that they killed the young master.”

She did not hear the story of the people in her butler’s mansion that followed.

“Diary.”

“·······Yes?”

“That diary. Where is it?”

The only diary left by Lian himself. The diary was the only thing that filled her mind.

***

“This way.”

“······Here.”

The room that Lian, who arrived following the guidance of the butler, has been living in all along. She was far worse than I thought.

The size of the room is less than a quarter of the one I am living in at the residence of the Duke of Listonia. The furniture is a clock, a desk, and a bed. It was all three of these things.

In this room without even a mirror on the wall, which is unconditionally the room of an aristocrat. Has Ryan been around for almost 3 years?

“First… I would like to apologize for what happened earlier. Princess.”

“······It’s okay. It’s not the butler’s fault.”

“To think that the countess would suddenly stir up such a riot… I have no face seeing the princess.”

Before entering this room, I was grabbed by Countess Kindred.

– Countess…?

– Even if it wasn’t just you! If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have anything to compare him to…

– Ma’am! Calm down!

– You too! You should have stopped me from doing that. I… Should have stopped me from killing her heart…

– ·······Sorry.

– hehehehe. Ryan…

The Countess of the gentle impression she had seen in the past was nowhere to be found, the Countess crying out in her sorrow at the loss of her son.

She misses her son whom she could not protect. She is the mother of a single family who regrets the actions she has done.

It was hard to keep watching.

“Maybe I should say it’s a relief that the princess didn’t see Lady Riana.”

“······Is Riana in a state similar to that of the Countess?”

Riana was Rihanna’s younger sister.

When she came to Count Kindred’s house to play, she still remembers the three of them playing together. She always remembered her lively and bright smile on her face.

“Miss Rianna is even worse.”

“She’s … Worse than the Countess?”

“She said there was a time when the young lady spat harsh words at the young master… And she probably regrets it.”

– Sister Adele!

She always smiled and called herself Lee Anna. She said she was worse than the countess now.

She didn’t have the imagination easily.

“The young lady, too, passed out in awe after reading all of the young master’s diary.”

“····.”

“The Count is very saddened that she fell like that and hasn’t woken up yet.”

“The Count…”

As if I knew how to ask Count Kindred if he was okay, Butler Alfred continued his conversation without interruption.

“The Count has shed tears for the first time in his life.”

“····.”

“I’ve been working here as a butler for well over 40 years, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen the count shed a tear.”

She also remembered the image of Count Kindred.

My friend’s dad seems to be very strict. The iron-blooded count who seems to have no blood or tears.

This was her evaluation after seeing Count Kindred.

‘······That Count… Shed tears.’

It was only natural that the butler’s words were not easily believed.

Then, slowly, her anxiety began to soar.

Because the diary left by Lian contained some kind of content.

Count Kindred, Countess, Lyanna’s younger sister. And even the servants of Count Kindred’s residence.

Is everyone regretting and missing Lian?

“This is a diary.”

“····.”

If Alfred is handing you that diary. If her content about her is also written.

She also regrets her own actions, and Count Kindred makes me regret like her people.

Then what should I do?

“······Wouldn’t you like to read it?”

“······No. Please.”

But I couldn’t help but read that diary that contained all the truth.

I reached out and received the diary that Alfred held out.

“·······Xx year xx month xx day.”

And then I started reading it.

Unexpectedly, the future full of her regrets will soon come upon her.
