The Female Lead Takes Care of Everything - Chapter 105
“Did class end?”
Müniel, who was reading a book beside the crib, gestured for me to come over.
Next to her were a round table and chairs. As we had discussed this morning, they were prepared for the grandchildren who would bring their homework.
“Grandma!”
Nivellia ran over and giggled, leaning her face against Müniel’s thigh.
“Did the Master of the Magic Tower leave?”
“He already left, didn’t he?”
“Without even saying goodbye to me?”
Despite the presumptuous tone, her face was full of disappointment.
Muniel chuckled softly and stroked the child’s back, asking, “Did you study well?”
“I learned about Antel today.”
“You learned about the Deiamor family?”
“Yes!”
In the Dramenor Empire, there are four families of great merit.
The de Gladius Dukedom.
The Deiamor Marquisate.
The Deiamor County.
The Deiamor County.
All four families have the prefix ‘Dei’ in their names. In ancient language, it means ‘bestowed by God.’
God’s Love.
God’s Shield.
God’s Sword.
God’s Scale.
And the four families of merit enjoyed wealth and honor with their family businesses befitting their names, and remained loyal to the imperial family.
Deiamor, which had long been poor and had no connection to power, was a special case, but still always participated in major national affairs and voiced its opinions.
But why was the unique prefix ‘Dei’ attached to these family names?
Many scholars have been curious about this and have researched it.
However, nothing has been clearly revealed. This was because many records were damaged and omitted due to the war with the monsters.
However, it is speculated that the theory that the predecessor of the Dramenor Empire may have been an ancient sacred state is being treated as the orthodox theory.
In other words, it means that the first heads of the meritorious families may have all been high-ranking clergy.
“Clergy…”
Tap.
Müniel muttered in a voice lost in thought. The fingers that had been tapping on the cover of the book she had placed on her lap also paused.
Her gaze remained fixed on Nivellia, who was doing her homework.
“Woong…”
With her lips slightly pouted, she was muttering the contents written in the textbook and scribbling something on the paper, looking quite serious.
The handwriting is still crooked. But she writes with good balance, enough to read without any problems.
Reading and writing were no longer difficult for Nivellia.
As soon as she learned how to read, she read many books following Soles. Her dictation skills also improved, and she always received perfect scores.
‘Is she a little gifted after all?’
My granddaughter is smart.
The corners of her mouth naturally lifted gently.
‘She’s really become a person.’
Every time she looked at her, she felt proud.
At the same time, it was also amazing.
That’s because.
Nivellia’s infancy was like a beast itself.
She lived as a cat for seven years, and was born remembering that time vividly.
So she thought of her identity as a cat and lived focusing on that.
Her first babbling was a cat’s meow, and she preferred crawling on all fours to walking.
When she learned to stand on two feet, she tried to climb to high places, and when she saw a stranger, she would hide under the sofa or bed.
She would catch live mice in her mouth, and if she was scared, she would hiss and swing her fists.
‘Until she was four years old, she was really a cat itself…’
Now she seemed to have completely accepted the fact that she was human.
‘She must have been very confused too.’
Müniel looked at Nivellia, who was concentrating on her homework without even noticing her gaze, with a pleased expression.
In the meantime, Soles and Aref also appeared in turn with their homework.
Just in time, Nivellia, who had finished her homework, had Müniel check it.
A smile spread across Müniel’s face as she looked it over.
“You did well.”
“Hehe!”
“But let’s take this out. ‘Assassination’ is a secret in the Deiarma family’s achievements. You shouldn’t write it out in the open like this.”
“That was a secret.”
Nivellia nodded, saying she didn’t know.
“……”
“……”
Soles and Aref, who unintentionally learned the secret of the Deiamor family, only exchanged awkward glances.
The Deiamor family made a name for themselves through auctions and art businesses, but in the past, they were also very famous for assassination.
It was a ‘skill’ that had been passed down only to the head of the family and the successor.
“Grandma, is that true?”
Soles asked, swallowing his shock.
“I thought only Antel was an assassin. And even that wasn’t because she was called an assassin because her skills were so good?”
“She was a real assassin.”
Muniel explained about the Deiamor family from about 40 years ago.
“Deiamor was quite notorious for assassination until the Crepartna War. The imperial family even occasionally commissioned them.”
When the imperial family was mentioned, disappointment spread across Soles’ face.
He knew that the world was not entirely clean, but it was still difficult to face such blatant darkness.
“But Antel Deiarma stopped completely after becoming Count. She did not pass on the technique to her children and went down to the territory to spend the rest of her life.”
She even added that the current Count Deiarma probably doesn’t even know that there is assassination in his family business.
Only then did Soles feel relieved and stroke his chest.
“That’s a relief.”
“That Antel, is she also Grandma’s friend? Like the Master of the Magic Tower and Mrs. Della…”
Aref, who had been listening silently, also asked.
Muniel nodded with a smiling face.
“Yes. She’s a friend.”
“Antel is a very fast and strong person!”
Nivellia also chattered about what she knew.
“She knows to offer snacks, and she plays with me when I’m bored. She was the only subordinate who could climb trees.”
Of course, no one except Muniel believed Nivellia’s past life story.
Nivellia was now used to this situation and took it for granted.
“Oh, speaking of which.”
Muniel told the children some news.
“That very Antel is said to be coming to the capital soon.”
“Antel?”
Nivellia opened her mouth wide in surprise.
“Yes, Antel is coming.”
Müniel closed her mouth and continued.
“I don’t know when she’ll come, but if she does, she’ll probably stop by our house. So, you have to greet her well then. Antel likes to be treated well.”
–
After finishing their homework, Nivellia had lunch and took a walk around the garden with her brothers.
“If even the former Count Deiamor comes, then the ‘Heroes of the Saintess’ will all be gathered.”
Nivellia and Aref tilted their heads at Soles’s mutter.
“What are the Heroes of the Saintess?”
“It refers to the group that fought together with Grandma at the forefront in the Krepata War. Grandma and Grandpa, and…”
Saintess Müniel and Holy Knight Ardores.
Master of the Magic Tower Magia and the Saintess’s maid, Della.
Berserker Monatos and Assassin Antel.
“What about the Great Witches?”
“The witches were mainly rear support. They didn’t fight directly because they were in the medical field, and they stuck together.”
But after saying it, he thought that the witches also fought together, so it wasn’t right to exclude them as rear support.
“Let’s go to Grandma later and ask her to include the witches in the Heroes of the Saintess.”
“Yes!”
Nivellia especially strongly agreed.
The children parted ways again after the walk.
Soles and Aref had swordsmanship training, and Nivellia had to go to manage the Pella Company.
Even at the age of seven, she did not neglect her work. Because that is the role of the leader who holds the enormous position of the company owner.
“Young lady, you’re here?”
Deter gently wiped Nivellia’s hands and face with a towel soaked in warm water that she had prepared in advance.
Then, she handed over a glass filled with water to rinse her mouth.
After rinsing her mouth neatly, Nivellia sat down on the chair in a cool manner.
“These are the documents you will review today.”
“Hmm!”
Nivellia made a rather solemn breathing sound as she looked at the documents piled up on the desk.
“I know why Dad doesn’t like working!”
“But you have to work. Because you are the owner of the Pella Company.”
“Before that, the newspaper first!”
As the owner of the Pella Company, Nivellia subscribes to a children’s newspaper every day and learns about what’s going on in the world.
Then, she reviews the documents sent by the company and approves them.
She is still a small company owner who receives a lot of help from her parents, but recently, she has a business that she is conducting independently with her parents’ permission.
“Look at this!”
Nivellia pointed to a small article in the culture section of the children’s newspaper.
Deter slowly read the article.
“As Tepe fabric becomes popular, its value is increasing day by day…”
“Amazing, right?”
“I agree. Tepe is a territory east of here. Is it close to the de Gladius territory?”
Deter, who was thinking of the imperial map, asked Nivelia with a surprised face.
“Could it be that you want to do this new business here?”
“Yes!”
Nivellia’s first independent business was to supply new products to the Rubeo Department Store.
It is a common thing for an ordinary company to do. But Nivellia promised to proceed with this only with her own skills.
If she succeeds safely, she traded with Celletina to invest a large amount of money in the company.
“I want to go to Tepe territory.”
“Then it would be good to ask the owner in advance. You have to coordinate because classes with the Magic Tower Academy or home teachers are scheduled.”
“I can’t go as I please. I have to tell them everything in advance and go after making exact promises.”
“That’s right.”
Another article caught Nivellia’s eye as she looked at the newspaper again.
The title of the article was ‘A Business Place That Smart Children Must Know.’
Here, Nivellia’s Pella Company was ranked as high as 11th out of 19.
It was written that it was a company that had firmly established its foundation by exclusively trading rare products even though the number of items was small.
“Hehe! 11th place!”
“Wow, aren’t you going to be 10th place next time?”
Deter, who was sincerely impressed, immediately checked the name of the business place recorded in 10th place right above. A slight wrinkle formed on her brow.
“It’s here again.”
The Roslen Company.
It was a new company that had been clashing with the Pella Company in every matter recently.
