Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Grand Duke Tessierie Von Alwigo

Rose's POV

I have been observing the time these days through the angle of light passing through the window, it is now the afternoon. I wonder when the guest is arriving? What is his/her intention of coming here?

I flicked my head to the door as I heard it creak. It still isn't time for my snack though...

Mira was behind someone with a tall stature, he has glimmering silver hair and dull dark blue eyes. But as he sees me, his dull eyes become animated... What a drastic change. =⁠_⁠=

Mira went forward to carry me up, she said, "Princess, this is your blood relative, he came here to see you"

Eh? Could he be my father?!

"He is Grand Duke Tessierie Von Alwigo, the older brother of your mother and your uncle" - she further introduced

A Grand Duke? So High in the ladder! I must make a good impression!

I struggled to get out of Mira's arms and stretched my arms towards the Grand Duke while flashing the cutest smile I could muster.

The Grand Duke appeared shocked and he tentatively tried to carry me. Although it isn't as comfortable as Mira's carry, I could manage! He stretched his point finger to me, and I grasped it while widening my smile. Are you charmed yet?

"You look... So much like Rizelia when she was young" - he uttered with a voice dripping with nostalgia

"I failed to protect her, but I won't make the same mistake twice! I will be the most solid and sturdy wall that you can lean on! I swear in the name of Alwigo!"

As I can remember, Swearing to your family's name is like commiting to an unbreakable promise because if you broke it, the family name gets tarnished!

"Gaa gaah Uh" - ugh this means thank you

Protect me well Uncle~ Let's get along in the future!
