The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads - Chapter 54

Only then I realized Cedric’s intentions.

‘You wanted to show off!’

Come to think of it, it’s natural. Originally, at this age, when children have something valuable to them, they like to show it off to their family and close friends. Perhaps Cedric was also happy to get the sword and was overwhelmed with the desire to show off it. And he picked me to boast about it.

‘Still, in that sense, does Cedric …..think of me as a close friend?’

One thing I realized while thinking about it, I was surprised and opened my eyes wide. Just in time, Cedric urged me.

“Tell me. Do you want to see or not?”

“Oh, of course I want to!”

I replied right away, in case Cedric would reverse the offer. Then Cedric said with an arrogant attitude, as if he knew I would accept it, of course.

“Well, then. Come on, follow me.”

But I saw. Cedric’s eyes were looking at me in case I was going to refuse.

‘Because it was so obvious…’

As I followed Cedric’s footsteps, I glanced at the back of the small head. You wouldn’t have noticed would you? Of course, it is only for one reason that I accept Cedric’s request rather than getting a favor. Because of the fact that Cedric thinks I’m a pretty close friend to him.

‘In fact, I was a little worried. Cedric seems to keep avoiding me after the potion day. But it must have been just because he was shy.’

I felt better when I had a hunch, that I would succeed in making friends with Cedric, like I had hoped so much. Without realizing, I even hummed.

Arriving after Cedric was in the kindergarten’s locker room. I slightly closed my eyes and opened my eyes to the brilliance of the flashy locker box that I couldn’t get used to no matter how many times I looked at it. 5 large, transparent crystal cases the size of mine. In front of it, Cedric stopped.

“This is the storage box for the Grand Lord.”

And I went ahead of Cedric and pointed out the location of Cedric’s locker. I had never seen Cedric use the locker, so I was helping in case he had forgotten the location. Cedric doesn’t even bring his bag properly when he comes to kindergarten, let alone use the locker.

“I know. And I didn’t hide the sword in the locker box.”

But Cedric snorted and suddenly began to approach the side, not his locker. I was just watching Cedric do it. Because it was empty next to it.

‘There is only a wall, but what are you hiding?’

When I noticed the suspicious feeling, I narrowed my eyes.

And the next moment, I was greatly amazed.

“Oh……?”

This is because Cedric pressed the wall, precisely the part that seemed to protrude slightly from the wall, and the wall suddenly cracked.

Dududu- Finally, a new room appeared magically with a small sound.

Is this a secret passage?

Finally, when the entrance to the passage was fully opened, Cedric went inside without hesitation. However, the place leading up to that passage was dark, so I couldn’t step my foot and stood still.

“Come in. You won’t die.”

Cedric noticed me hesitating and said, looking back. It was only then that I began to take my steps carefully, step by step. Would I have walked about five steps like that?

The dark aisle sparkled and lit up.

When I looked at the ceiling in amazement, light was radiating brightly from the stone, which is supposed to be a high-quality magical stone.

“Wow……!”

“What do you think? Really nice here, isn’t it?”

I admired for a moment at the sight of the beautiful magical stone, and Cedric looked at me and asked smug questions. His nose was raised as if he had made this secret room. I nodded.

“It’s really cool. But Grand Lord, how did you find this passage?”

Cedric was taken aback for a moment to my question, and then replied casually.

“……I just happened to see it. I found it while I was going around the kindergarten. The wall just opened because I accidentally pressed the wall.”

‘Accidentally.’

If it is true that he was able to find a secret passage by accident, Cedric seems to be a very lucky child. However, looking at that expression that seemed to have been hit by a nail on the head, there seems to be something hidden.
