The Step Of Palimpsest
#6

I just remembered, Dominique's private castle had the name Mangata Castle, which means reflection of the shadow of the moon on the surface of the water. So named because the roof of the castle is a thick glass roof filled with water. The top floor of the castle will be used when Dominique and Dorothy's maturation ceremony arrives. Dorothy of course had her own castle, Ina Castle. Their maturation ceremonies will be held alternately, first in Mangata, then in Ina.

Unfortunately, Dominique has died. Dorothy always fled to Mangata Castle when she was reminded of her brother even though they were still living in Ginova Castle. Dorothy understood that Dominique was not the type to show off, but that her twin kept everything precious there, that was also the reason why Dominique's ally's lair was there.

After that, what I now have to think about is how am I going to behave in the future? We are now on our way home on a horse-drawn carriage to Ginova Castle. Ah, why is my head spinning? Am I drunk land? No, I've never had a land drunk. But, indeed, the road is chaotic because it passes through the jungle, even though this is the most luxurious vehicle on the road. Ah, I better walk.

"I forgot to tell you Dominique was drunk on land" said Theomund, with a glowing green palm glowing yellow at me.

My drunkenness disappeared, I'm not dizzy or nauseous anymore. "The drunkenness is just a matter of suggestion. As he grows up, his land-based hangover will definitely disappear."

"Dominique and Dorothy's age is now 16. How old are you really?"

"25 years."

"Well, my son has grown up before his time."

Huh huh? Whatisit? So ambiguous.

"When there's Dorothy who can lead Ginova, right? From a single glance, Dorothy was better than Dominique."

Having a twin brother cannot be forever in every way. Having hair color that is both green toska, eye color that is both purple like a precious stone, equally female, with a height that is almost no difference. The more common, the more differences. Dominique likes to grow her hair, but Dorothy likes to carry her hair. The tastes of clothing and cosmetics are different. Moreover, Dominique likes food with strong spices, but Dorothy is easily satisfied with only the vegetable soup of the sick.

Various ways have been tried so that a pair of twin sisters can have anything with the same taste. Unfortunately, the same taste is actually related to both liking the same man. Now, various ways are tried to make one of them can like other men, but they both can not be arranged by others. As ambitious as Dominique was with all of her tightly sealed possessions in Mangata Castle, she was very much looking after whatever was precious to her. Yeah, Dominique won't budge.

The moon does not want to lose its light. However, the light he got from the sun.

Dorothy was so kind and meek, her kindness shone through the whole country. She loved her sister very much and wanted her sister to be happy, all she wanted was Dominique's happiness. Dorothy had relented long before she knew that Casildo liked her sister. Dorothy was even more grateful for deciding to give up. However, his heart could not lie as he manipulated his desire to be with Casildo.

"To be honest, I would have preferred Dorothy to be the successor because she was meek and sensitive to the surroundings. However, too good it should not be too, let alone be a leader. In contrast to Dominique who is frank and can maintain his goals no matter what. I as the head of the family have to think about the survival of the other Ginova family members as well."

Dominique, the eldest, who has a thick disposition. Dorothy, the youngest, who had a vague disposition. Dominique inherits traits from Theomund, while Dorothy inherits traits from Lesya. Both have parents who understand their characteristics and can guide them. Without the need for jealousy, both can be the best in their own way. However, was Dorothy unwilling to defend her throne? Just because Dominique was born a few minutes ahead of him, and not him?

Dominique was realistic, but Dorothy was not that stupid either. Want a strong leader who can guide and direct clearly or a loving leader and always use a peaceful path without showing the hierarchy of a leader. Which would be more powerful to lead a witch family?

"Father is very wise" I said.

Theomund chuckled in satisfaction, he sighed after laughing. "I want to ask you one more thing."

"Yes?"

"Do you have a brother?"

Why would he ask?

"No. I'm an only child. Until I woke up a few days ago, I'm sure, my parents were still healthy."

"Adult woman, then single child. No one will realize the difference to Dominique Ginova."

I admit, he was a good father, a wise leader, able to sort out which ones were important and not right. Even with my true age, I still lost to him, which meant he had more life experiences than me. Because in the past all the shortcomings, they must be able to turn the brain in order to have a solution to their problems. People in the past were great. The result is the discovery of those who the people of my time have made use of. Everything is easy and simple, a discovery that makes it easier for people around the world.

Caring for the child was not easy, even for a high-strata witch. No matter where I go, I always trouble the old man. Ah, fortunately I had time to eat mother's cooking before finally moving here.

"Mr Theomund, we've arrived."

From a distance, I could see there were three people in clothes standing waiting on the main entrance to the castle. One was an old man in black and white clothes, a butler. One was a black-haired young man who also wore knight clothes, just that it looked more luxurious and the color of his uniform was different. Another one was a girl of the same age who had toska-colored hair - that was shouldered - like me and Theomund.

The two striking figures were the main male and female lead figures in this world. As for me, it is the caretaker who will determine their affection. However, apparently fate says something else. They cannot determine their destiny if there is no me, there is only me who determines my own destiny.

"Why is there Casildo?"

"While the father is the suspect, not always the son is involved, right? Then, remember, from now on you are a witch named Dominique Ginova."

The horse carriage stopped in front of the three people perfectly. The old butler stepped forward to open the door of the carriage. Theomund stepped out first, accompanied by words of welcome from them.

"Welcome back, Dad, Dommy!"

"Welcome back, Mr and Miss Dominique. How's travel?"

"less good. Dommy's face was so pale on the way, I shouldn't have forced her to take the horse-drawn carriage when it wasn't optimal."

Sandiwaraku as Dominique Ginova, starting here.

When I put my foot on the footing of the carriage, a hand wrapped in black gloves extended its hand to me. Then I gave one of my hands to her, I clasped her hand firmly, and she was not at all bothered by my grasp. When I tread the ground perfectly, the horse carriage immediately drove back towards the direction of the warehouse.

The man holding my hand is my fiancee. Casildo Valera, son of a royal knight commander. With hair as black as coal ore, not even the sunlight could reflect the light. His smile was perfectly curved like a crescent moon. Maroon eye slices perfect round like for rasberi. At times I would describe Casildo's eye color getting darker as he matured. From the rasberi to the color of the lunar eclipse. Casildo was no longer an ordinary man, but rather a man and a knight.

"How are you doing?"

"It's better than ever."

"Goodoo. Yesterday, my father and I had just returned from the coast, because he was on patrol there. So, we brought you salmon to help you heal."

Let me guess, the coast where they bought the salmon was the same as the shore where Dominique drowned. That means, Cashel is setting a trap, but it is also not impossible that he did something because Dominique who should have been dead is still alive. I would not be surprised if Casildo's future visit, Cashel will come to his side.

"Thank you for the great gift."

After I finished speaking, there was the sound of someone snorting, "When I greet you first, have you forgotten me?" dorothy's lips.

I pulled Dorothy's hand, clutching her body in my arms. The main character from this world who managed to give justice to his late brother. He is the sole successor of the Ginova family. Although he did not win over his feelings. Dorothy was satisfied with all the achievements she had achieved. The truth is the Ginova twins are my insertion. I love all sides of my personality.

"I'm home, Dormy."

"Your neck is so cold! Come on, get in your room, take a break while you wait for lunch to be prepared!"

Crewman

We all failed to focus after hearing the sound of someone starving. No, the sound is not coming from me. My stomach is sick with acid, but it's not coming from me. The voice came from Theomund. He who was bent in hunger could only chuckle in embarrassment while rubbing his stomach.

"Ah, I'm so sensitive when I hear food. I'm hungry, Dormy. What's the lunch menu?"

"It's up to Dominique, Dad."

Don't be like that, don't make me bother you guys. As for me being born into a noble family, can I ask as I please?

"Salmon from Casildo save it for dinner. I ... want to eat roast duck."
