Chapter 360
I Talked With Mr. Ekenhart
“Does Ms. Claire and the others know about it? It seemed like Sebastian did.”
“Claire knows about the swords, though not in detail. But neither does Nicholas, and he uses one. It is the same with Sebastian. Also, they know not to talk about it with others.”
I suppose only the head of the house was allowed to know more about them then.
Sebastian was the butler who was closest to Mr. Ekenhart, but even he did not know much more than Ms. Claire.
“But why does Nicholas have one if it is something that is supposed to be secret?”
I could understand why Mr. Ekenhart had one, but it seemed odd that one the guards should as well.
“Because I gave it to him. Their existence is not what is secret. Besides…it is not a very good one, and so it is allowed. As long as you are working for a noble.”
“I see…”
Now that I think about it, the sword that Nicholas had been holding was a little different from Mr. Ekenhart’s.
Though…I could not really explain what it was.
There was a difference in the way that the blade reflected the light, and the hilt and sheath were less decorated.
