Aloof King And Cool (Acting) Queen Chapter 4

04. The Boy Who Looks Like A Girl

[Alexei’s POV]

That day, I finished my morning work as always and just came back home.

And then I found her in front of my house.

It’s a girl with black hair, something unusual in this country.

She was wearing some kind of an accessory made of two gla.s.ses around her eyes. I’ve never seen this before, either.

And she had a considerably delicate physique to the extent that I became worried.

Sleeping in this gra.s.sland is unsafe so I tried waking her up, but she didn’t wake up at all even if I shook her shoulder or called out to her.

I noticed that she’s apparently not sleeping but is actually unconscious, so I carried her in my arms and hurriedly took her along to my house.

That is when I realized that it’s not a girl, but a boy.

… I never thought I would be this disappointed.

The boy did not wake up easily, but since he did not have any particular injuries either, I decided to visit the actual scene once again.

When I returned to the house after a short while, the boy was crouching down at the front door and was muttering something incoherently.

“Oi, are you already fine?”

When I called out to him, the boy looked back at my direction as if he was surprised.

His eye, which were opened wide that they seem like they’ll fall out, and his hair are similarly pitch black.

And he still looks like a girl either way.

Furthermore, what surprised me the most were the words he spoke that I can’t understand.

I did not think that there was someone who could not speak the official language of this world.

I wonder what kind of mountain recesses did he come from?

Then when he burst into tears, he somehow stirred up my desire to protect, we began living together while I taught him the language.

That is when I noticed Haruto had an abnormally small appet.i.te and he likes flowers very much.

Moreover, he was quite intelligent.

Haruto has a beloved beautiful book where many imaginary flowers are drawn, it seems to be very valuable.

He is perhaps a Young Master if he has a book like that.

Those peaceful days continued, however, Haruto was strangely surprised when he saw my magic once.

I am even more surprise, y’know?

Really, just where did you come from…?
