Immortal Witch: Eldest Daughter Of A Duke

Chapter 35 - Go with the flow

Liberaine followed the woman to the office of a 'monastry', she learned that this place is a church when the woman talked to the priest man, all the requirements for her to register is in the hand of the woman, she said that Liberaine name is 'Rene' and the one who is sponsoring Liberaine as a guardian named 'Lefina',

Liberaine didn't know who is Lefina, but Liberaine didn't question them, she still need to talk to the apprentice man about this body, she needed to be low-key first, because if they know Liberaine can talk and understand them, they might question her.

Liberaine didn't know what to answer so she thinks that it is better to keep quiet. Although Liberaine got an idea who is this girl because of what she dreamed, it is better to confirm it to Lilibeth.

'Where is Lilibeth? And why am I here in the first place?' She ponder while walking.

When the registration is done, the woman take her to the place where she woke up. After entering the room, Liberaine feel the aura of three big guy getting close to the room. After marking them in the inn, Liberaine can immediately noticed them even with her eyes open.

"Sister Daryl, is Rene registered now?" The red-haired man talked with his husky voice, he seems to be really worried.

Sister Daryl warmly smiled, nodding she said, "Don't worry Lefina, its fine now to go around, because she is now registered, Anna will need to think twice before harming her."

Lefina sighed, "That's good, thats good! That girl really is shameless, barging in my inn in the middle of the night." Lefina remember the night when the people of Combre house barge in her inn, and taking her customer. She can't help but get angry.

"I heard that Josh and Dan are with the little girl, right? They can buy some time so the little girl can escape, but if it take a while I know you know what is the end of the little girl." Sister Daryl said while leading Liberaine to the bed and make her sit.

"Can't the church do something to help Lilibeth? She doesn't look like a girl who will try to take a life of a noble, she is innocent." Lefina said with a fierce look. Lefina know how noble works when the commoner offended them, 'Just because they have power they can accused the innocents..'

Sistet Daryl shake her head, "I am sorry, the church can only protect children under 12 years old, and Lilibeth is 13 years old a.d.u.l.t, it is out of our scope, unless you have evidence that the girl is innocent, but I doubt that you will found any.."

Lefina didn't know what happen, so how can she possibly know if there is a witness, and even if there is really a witness, Lefina doubt if they are going to help them because the other party must be scared of the Comreind House and will choose to be silent. In this world, the power and money rules.

They keep talking in the room, Liberaine get the gist of the situation right now, 'So Lilibeth must be falsely accuse, and she is imprisoned in that Combre House? That night while I am having a nightmare, many things happened.'

After Sister Daryl go out, Lefina stand up and keep walking back and forth.

Liberaine looked at Lefina, amused as she notice that the red-haired man have pointed ears, she cannot help but said to the worried Lefina, "Just calm down first."

Lefina stop walking, as she heard a clear voice behind her back. She turn around and saw a beautiful little girl looking at her with her green eye, while her lips hooked up.

Lefina didn't talk in a minute, after collecting herself, she confusely said, "Did you just talk to me right now? Didn't Lilibeth said that you cannot talk and you become a men-.." tal.. Lefina didn't continue anymore, she know it is rude.

Liberaine smiled at Lefina, she is happy to see a big man who gets worried for the sake of stranger. But she can't help but complained deep inside, 'So they really treat me like a mental huh.'

"That night what happened?" Liberaine throw a question without answering the question of Lefina.

With bewildered look, Lefina still continued asking, "You.. you must be acting right?.." Lefina look like she discover something. "Yah!! that must be it, maybe... maybe.. because you are keeping your real identity, Rene acting like a dumb child must be a cover right?" She questioned with a sparkling eyes..

Liberaine is speechless, it is the first time she saw a being looking fierce but have a puppy personality. After hearing a bombard of question, 'So it really comes to this... being questioned.' She silently sighed when thinking of that.

'Acting? No! I am not acting, I just don't understand your language. And whats with the high intonation of the word 'dumb', kinda hurt ya know.' but when Liberaine remember what happen to her, when Lilibeth saw her all her shamelessness, she immediately said, "Yeah, I am acting." Liberaine do not want to admit and do not want to explain what happened to her at this moment.

Lefina gasped and loudly yell while pointing at her. "You.. so you girls are really.. ancient..human .. then-?" Lefina cover her mouth with her hands, she don't want others to heard what she just said, the girl is hiding her identity, so Lefina thinks that she must not blow her cover.

Liberaine showed a questioning look, but she still nodded, she really don't want to explain,'Just go with the flow.' she thought. "Now answer my question."

Lefina quickly nodded her head like a chicken pecking her food."This is what happen, in the middle of the night the Comreind House barge in, they accused Lilibeth and you for harming their missy, Anna, in the middle of the day. So they proudly said that they have a right to get you two to be imprisoned and need to be punish. Josh and Dan insisted that Lilibeth and you are falsely accused, but the other part is determined to get you, and even said that the advisor will not let all of us off if we hide you two in our wings."

"Josh and Dan can only accept it, but they wanted to be with Lilibeth to make sure that she will be okay. Lilibeth defended you and told that you are just a bystander, under the name of the church you are register with me as your guardian, I can only nodded at that time and immediately bring you here while you are sleeping with the sky still dark, I seeked help with my friend Daryl to help us sheltered you first and legally registered."

Liberaine keep glancing at the door and Lefina, it confused Lefina so she looked back and saw a door closed, she heard the little girl said, "If they keep insisting that I must be imprisoned too in that house, how come I am here?" Liberaine questioned Lefina because Liberaine think that the Combre House is so arrogant the way they do things, so why must they let her off.

"Uhh... I used a brute force." Lefina said with her face blushing.

Liberaine nodded. 'So that is why when I woke up I feel throwing up, the reason must be me while sleeping, this man hurriedly take me for escaping without checking my situation, well I can't blame him.'
