"Estelle, help me out with this!" Yulia exclaimed.
Her golden, silky hair was now tangled up and had lost its luster. Dark circles formed under her eyes, and the clothes she wore were ragged as she hadn't changed in weeks.
Estelle had told her to clean herself with Water Magic multiple times, but Yulia wouldn't listen. She said that it would ruin the mood as it made her feel like she was just starting the research, like she hadn't made much progress.
Estelle couldn't comprehend that way of thinking, so although she was rather detached from her surroundings during the research, she would always make it back to her family during nighttime.
To act her part as the Dukedom's young miss, she interacted with the people, went to accompany her parents, and ended the day by watching over Noah and eventually sleeping nearby.
In truth, her body was growing at such a monstrous rate that she could discard sleep for a week or more and still be at her best state.
