Chapter 14

The incense chamber of Larrite and the Duke’s villa

Fortunately, since the man from the government came, no one looked for the villa.

The winter days passed as the snow piled up, melted, and disappeared again.

Ian’s body also showed signs of improvement and he was almost recovered…..

—Meooowww

One morning, Ian heard a cat crying outside the door.

Ian opened the door and stepped on the squeaky floorboard while rubbing his eyes.

“Butter, you’re here already? Your mother is still sleeping.”

The cat’s full name was Lavingenis von Alexandria Anges.

‘Butterfly’ for convenience.

[T/N: Ornithoptera Alexandrae is a species of Butterfly]

It was only her who had a special meaning to her name.

Laritte herself had said, “Let her visit here for some food, and let’s give her a name.”

Ian took out a fish, which he had caught a few days ago, and returned to the door.

“Meow.”

A long furry cat with blue sparkling eyes, looked at Ian as if she was making a smiling face.

“Yes, yes. Here’s your meal..….”

Ian stopped.

The green ground was spread out before his eyes.

There were times when the cold got milder, but it was the first time that there was a sign of life.

Spring had finally begun.

Laritte, who woke up from their conversation, appeared in the living room.

“Butter, you’re here! It’s been three days since the last time you visited us.”

“Do you feel more independent these days? Is that why you can live alone?”

Butterfly took a few steps towards Larrite gracefully but stopped before her.

As usual, cats were cats. They don’t easily trust people even though they have been taken care of.

“By the way, did you take a look outside? There are sprouts.”

“Wow…..”

After the chilly cold weather, there was finally a fragrance of the spring.

Spotting a yellow flower through the green grass, Ian walked towards it.

He picked up the small flower and held it out to Larrite.

He wanted her to smell its faint sweet scent.

But when Laritte couldn’t understand him, she sarcastically asked.
