The Extra's Indifference

Chapter 38 Absurd Misunderstanding

After Kayle's remark of the suicide, me and my brother didn't- no, couldn't speak for a while and just ate our foods.

'Is Kayle a suicidal person? Or else why would he considers committing suicide is easy. Is his maid the one that prevents his suicide?'

'What a pity that someone like him is a suicidal person, but what is the reason that he is a suicidal?' I thought with great sadness.

I glanced at Kayle, who was fed by his beautiful maid.

It was quite sad and funny sight to see that beautiful, cold but suicidal Kayle to get along with his expressionless maid.

Although i wanted to make some jokes and be friends with his maid, i held myself back. I feared that if i suddenly wanted be her friend that would scare Kayle that i want his maid as my maid instead of just friend.

From what I observed so far, Kayle relies on his maid too much and surprisingly his maid likes to take care of Kayle. Or this is what i felt from his maid, though i am not certain.

And i found this pretty strange, because i read many books about mages and influence of their highest affinity to their personalities.

Average ice affinity mages usually are cold like Kayle, so i assumed that his cold personality was because of his very high affinity to ice. But normally ice affinity mages aren't just cold, they are prideful too. They aren't prideful because they are powerful mage or noble, they are prideful because of their ice affinity.

For some reason ice affinity not just makes people cold and calculative, it makes them prideful, which in turn makes them not even depends on their own blood.

So when i noticed the fact that Kayle's action isn't someone with ice affinity would do, i began to think about this.

Although i wasn't intelligent like my father and brother but i wasn't idiot either. I considered myself as an averagely intelligent young woman.

'What if Kayle is like my brother that who doesn't affected by his affinity?' i thought for a moment but shook my head internally.

Although Kayle was talented and strong, this wasn't something common in the first place. Mages thag not affected by their affinity is so rare that, it's considered almost a legend.

'What if something happened to Kayle and this broke his pride and drove him to suicide?' I thought and looked at Kayle.

'Kayle is very beautiful and he must have been very cute child back then, plus he was orphan like my brother. Did his parents do something bad to him when he was child and this broke his pride or did someone do something disgusting to him while he was in orphanage? Some disgusting bastard must have tried or did something disgusting to him while he was just a child.' I thought with great pity and sadness.

'What if Ceurie family is the one that did something so disgusting to the Kayle?' I nodded.

'It must be them. Although i didn't observed them too much but it was kind of strange that, Kayle was too obedient to his sister.' I thought and began to get angry behalf of the Kayle, the one that i assumed, who was suffering from corrupted noble house and their spoiled heiress.

I completely convinced myself that Ceurie family is the one that caused the suffering of the Kayle.

'I will save you!' I thought to myself and looked at the Kayle with great determination.

My father once advice me to don't do anything without consulting to himself or my brother because according to him, i was too pure and someone would take advantage of this. But i didn't listen his words because i thought he was just overprotective.

If only i listened his advice and consulted my thoughts on this to my brother. I wouldn't regret for this idiotic decision.

"I will save you Kayle." Alicia murmured to me while she was leaning to my shoulder. Her balance was quite a bit off because of the mild drunkeness she is experiencing righ now.

Why is she drunk?

Well, when i stated that suicide is easy, room got quiet and no one spoke for a while.

So i ordered some wine to ease their mind and lighten their mood.

Wine worked too well than i wanted. The Ashtorn siblings went overboard with the wine that i gave them and became little bit drunk.

And for some reason Alicia spouting lines like 'I will save you' or 'You poor thing' or 'I will break hands of the fucking trash bastards'.

I deduced from Alicia's sad murmurs that Alicia got some big misunderstanding about me.

She was looking at me with great sadness and pity. As if i was injured kitten and she was graceful saint.

'Well, i can use this misunderstanding to get closer to the Alicia without causing suspicions.'

"Why do you think that i need help?" I asked to Alicia.

Alicia looked at me with moist eyes and sad smile.

"You don't have to worry about it, you poor thing." Alicia murmured and caressed my cheek.

I turned towards Aria who was looking at this sight while clenching her hands.

"What is your thoughts on this Aria?" I whispered to Aria

"I want to kill her." Aria answered without a thought.

"I didn't ask that my dear. Give me your thoughts about what this girl is talking about."

Aria who heard my question coughed slightly to hide her embarrassment.

"She got some big misunderstanding about you master."

"I know that too, my dear Aria, are you drunk too?" I asked and inspected Aria.

Well she wasn't drunk, just a little bit tipsy.

"I am sorry master, i can't think straightly right now." Aria said and bowed her head.

"You can think later when you are fully awake." I said and patted her shoulder.

"I thought after the dinner, we would go to the auction house but it seems we can't do that right now with these drunks." I said and gestured the unconscious Hywel who was sleeping on the floor.

I wanted to go to an auction house because i thought that like every transmigration genre protagonist, i would find a divine artifact that disguised as a random rock.

Well, i don't have any luck or bad luck, thus it is simply impossible for me to find something valuable like divine artifact in a random auction house.

So i gave up my idea of going to an auction house and began to make a plan.

>> Do you have any sleeping drug and aphrodisiac? << I asked to the Aria via telepathy.

Aria turned to me and looked at me with wide, trembling eyes.

>> But master you said that you don't have any lust and now master wants to di something like this. << Aria answered with trembling voice, as if she felt betrayed, or she really felt like this.

>> I don't have any lust, so just tell me if you have any aphrodisiac and sleeping drug. <<

Aria nodded reluctantly.

>> That is good. << I nodded too.

>> Your job is pretty simple. All you have to do is disguise yourself and knock out me cold after that knock out the Alicia when she see me knocked out and wake me up. <<

>> Why? << Aria looked at me with questioning eyes.

>> Normally you aren't the one that asks too much question. Are you actually a curious person that hold your curiosity back? << I asked with slight interest.

>> I am sorry master, it seems alcohol got a effect on me. <<

>> You don't have to apologize my dear Aria. If i wanted, i would sign the same contract as the Katie's with you, but i didn't. Do you know the reason? <<

>> Because master needed someone to entertain him? << Aria answered uncertainly.

>> You are partially correct my dear. I needed someone to talk freely without restraining myself because i didn't want to endanger my plans and future. So you don't have to hold yourself back, as you know i wouldn't even mind it. <<

>> Really? << Aria asked and her eyes glinted eerily for a moment.

>> Well now that i think about it, hold your lust back. << I quickly corrected my statement.

>> I will do my best master. <<

I turned towards to Alicia and found out that she was sleeping while leaning to me.

>> Aria pinch Alicia and be ready. <<

Aria nodded and pinched Alicia's side.

Alicia woke up and Aria quickly got out of our sight.

"Uhmm... Kayle?" Alicia opened her eyes slightly and murmured.

"What?" I said with annoyed tone.

"Am i dreaming?" Alicia murmured and reached her hand to my face.

"No." I said and push her hand back.

"Is that so?" Alicia murmured unconvincedly.

'Well it seems effect of the alcohol didn't dissappeared.'

"Yes. So, can you wake your brother up?" I said and felt something hit to back of my head.

Alicia's eyes widened and opened her mouth.

"Kayle!?" Alicia shouted loudly.

That was the last thing i saw before i lost consciousness.
