Capítulo 7: A Normal 20 Years Old Kid

It had not been that long since Martha came there as Henry's personal maid. During that short period what she realised was Henry was a good and sensible child who needed more love.

"He is very good. He is kind, honest, innocent, and also very cute."

Her explanation sounded very normal. Of course, Henry was a normal child. But who knew that normal child was actually 20 years old?

"Mmm...Do you think I can get along well with him? He didn't seem to like me."

Ricarda sat on her bed and asked Martha in a concerned manner.

"Don't worry, miss. I am sure he already likes you. He is just shy to talk with you. Later we can meet him if you want. But now, take a nap. You look tired. I will stay here until you sleep."

Martha was very kind. Even Ricarda who knew her just a few minutes ago felt very lucky to have someone like her. When Ricarda finally fell asleep, Martha went out to do her regular work.

Meanwhile, the little puppy who was left alone in his room was in deep thought. 

'I must not panic. She is just a child, just a child. She is not bad. Something must have happened to her at that time... I really don't understand these magical things. If there were police it would have been easy. Sigh...I can't rely on anyone else. I only have myself.'

What he had to do next was find the answers to the questions left by the past actions. He does not know those things. He was sure even the original Henry didn't know any.

As he was dozing off while thinking about what to do, he heard a noise from his room window. That room was huge. But it only had a huge bed which was enough for more than 20 Henrys to sleep in, a working table and chair for it, the little table which carried the lamp, and the cabinet to keep the clothes. 

And there was only one door and there were two windows. But it seemed like one of them had broken. Henry couldn't open that window before. So he gave up.

But the sound came from that window. When he got off the bed to check what that sound was, the door opened.

"Young master, the duke invited the master to have dinner together. This servant is here to bring the master."

The servant came in without even knocking, but she was very respectful.

"Next time, remember to knock on the door!"

Henry looked back at the window but didn't go there. He followed the servant to the dining room. It was already past 7 pm. 

Henry still didn't have any idea about the watches and timing system there. He didn't know how to read the time.

When he entered the dining room, Ricarda was already sitting there. He saw Martha who was in the corner of the room. But he didn't smile or talk to her. She was not her maid anyway.

After he sat down, the duke asked the servants to serve the food. 

After tasting the food, Henry couldn't deny the fact that it tasted heavenly. He ate to his stomach's content. That was very satisfying.

But the duke seemed confused. Whenever Henry took dinner in the dining room with him, he would cover in gloom, and nervousness would be labelled on his face. But at that moment, Henry was eating like a pig who had never seen food before. 

"Ricarda, do you like the food?".

The duke put the spoon down and asked her in a soft voice. Henry also looked at Ricarda to hear her answer.

But her answer made Henry feel very disappointed.

"I don't like oily food.".

She didn't comment about the taste, but also the type of food. The servants looked panicked hearing her answer. Since her answer showed she was not pleased with the meal, the servants might get punished.

"Then you should have to tell them beforehand. Let the servants know what you want. They will make it for you."

The duke said and drank the glass of water next to his plate. At the same time, he didn't forget to steal a glance at Henry who looked like a completely different person. Henry glared at Ricarda who pushed a piece of meat into her mouth with elegant actions.

'What are you acting for? It's clear you like the food. Or do you want to win the duke's heart by playing weak and fragile? Huh! Just win, who cares?'

Henry enjoyed the meal. He didn't forget to thank the servants for preparing such a good meal. The servants looked very happy and cheerful. They started to think their young master is the best and kindest child ever.

Ricarda watched him all cheerful and happy. She felt a little envious because he didn't talk with her.

Henry looked cheerful and lovable. That's how he was initially. He felt like he was being himself. It was better than acting like someone else. He thanked anyone who gave him this chance to go back in time even though he still remembered he got transmigrated there.

"Young master, I am your newly appointed personal maid. From now on, I will take care of you."

A woman in her 30s visited him at night. She introduced herself and said her name was Mira.

"Okay, see you tomorrow Mira."

Henry was already sleepy. So he didn't want to converse more than that. He fell asleep.

Mira, the maid, left the room letting him sleep.


Capítulo 8: To Meet The Beggar

"Good morning, young master"

The next day, Mira came to his room early in the morning. Henry didn't want to wake up. That bed was super comfy and he felt like he could sleep all day. 

'How did ancient people have these super comfortable things?'

He lazily woke up and saw Mira was waiting for him to wake up.

"Good morning, Mira. Did you bring my breakfast?'

After getting off the bed, he saw Mira empty-handed.

"No, you can get it from the kitchen."

As she conveyed with a displeased voice, Henry's mood got ruined early in the morning.

'Are you fucking kidding me?'

He was the son of the duke. These servants were supposed to serve them well. So how could she ask him to get breakfast by himself?

'Is that how you want to play? Alright, then!'

Henry didn't say anything. He pretended like that pitiful and naive child. 

This 20-year-old Henry was originally not such a kind person. He was originally born with an evil side. Even though he was all friendly, that didn't mean others could bully him easily.

When Henry realised that the maid, Mira, was initially treating him poorly, he thought back to something.

In the memories of Henry, he found out that even his maids bullied him. Stress and getting abandoned were the main reasons for him to let go of his innocence.

At first, he acted evil in order to get rid of those people's barbs and gossip. But later he knew it was the best way to control everyone. So he became evil for real.

Among those maids, this Mira also could have been included.

'So you want to bully me? Okay!'

Henry smirked secretly and turned to Mira who was looking outside the window.

"I am not hungry, so I don't need breakfast. Help me get ready. I want to go outside."

Henry said and sat down on the bed. Mira flicked her tongue and rummaged through the cupboard to find a suitable suit.

"Here we go! You have to dress more luxuriously. If not, that beggar will shine more than you. You need to be more competent to get the duke by your side."

As she kept babbling nonsense, Henry watched her changing his clothes roughly. It hurt. She was really reckless.

"You have such fair skin!".

She touched Henry's stomach and said. She looked like she found a treasure. She turned him around and touched his back too.

'What the hell?'

Feeling disgusted by her unnecessary touches, he tried to struggle.

To distract her from him, he kept asking her questions and acted like he didn't care about her touching him.

"What beggar?"

It seemed to work. She stopped touching him and put on more clothes. The clothes there had so many layers. For his upper body, he wore three layers. And for the down, he had to wear three layers including long shoes like boots. 

He didn't want to be naked in front of her. But he couldn't refuse either. If so she would pay more attention to it then. So he let her change his clothes, closing his eyes and wishing her not to touch him.

Luckily, she didn't touch him anymore.

"Who else? That girl our duke brought! I heard she lived with beggars. I really don't believe she is his child. Why would she end up with beggars then?"

She talked very frankly. Maybe she never bothered that Henry might expose her.

Henry didn't reply to her. After it was done, he looked at himself in the mirror.

'Handsome! Is it really? Shit! I am not very handsome, but cute. This is hurting my pride.' 

He noticed his hair was still a mess. He was looking in the mirror without taking care of his hair.

"Let me comb your hair."

She showed him the comb and let him sit down. While she combed his hair, Henry felt like she was taking a lot of time. She kept stroking and combing the same spot more than five times.

'Don't tell me she likes my hair too?'

"Your hair is very soft."

As Mira commented, Henry, who already expected that, "...."

"You must not let her steal your spot. I think it would be better to throw her away from the mansion, right? She doesn't deserve to be here. She must leave!"

She still kept talking while combing his hair.

'How dare you talk like that to the duke's child? I am sure he will kill you if he knew.'

Henry conceded those words must have affected the real Henry too. If he didn't know about the past and wanted to be good, he would have listened to Mira and would have tried to teach Ricarda a lesson.

'What a sharp mouth!'

Henry watched her combing his hair and finally tying it up into a ponytail. 

He never had long hair before. He once saw how long Henry's hair was when he was 14. Long hair bothered him very much. 

'Why do I have to grow hair this long?'

In his original world, he never saw any men who had such long hair even though some existed.

However, long hair matched well with his outfit. So he thought it must be the fashion style in this world. 

"Where do you want to go?"

Mira asked while looking at the reflection of Henry in the mirror.

"To meet that beggar."
