Delina had practiced even more intensively as she didn’t know who she would end up dancing with. However, she ended up dancing with those she was quite familiar with.
“Of course, I danced with those who were much better than me by chance. Still, dancing with other young men shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Do you have to dance?”
“Of course, I won’t ask you to dance, but it’s good to be prepared just in case.”
Delina laughed as she spoke. At that moment, a flower was extended towards Delina.
“What’s this…?”
Surprised, Delina looked around, and suddenly, families had gathered, exchanging flowers with each other. Delina looked back at Velion and asked.
“Did you know about this? Giving flowers during the coming-of-age ceremony.”
It was a tradition for parents or families to attach flowers to young individuals celebrating their coming-of-age ceremony. Delina received the flower Velion offered.
“I heard from Felic not long ago. He said you must give flowers that are absolutely good.”
“That’s right. So, about the flowers…”
Thinking about Velion, who discreetly brought flowers into the banquet hall, a smile naturally formed. Delina, with a flower on her chest, smiled.
“Thank you. I’ll accept them well.”
Neither parents nor family, so she didn’t even expect to receive flowers. However, now that she received flowers, it felt good.
“Now you’re officially an adult clown.”
“That’s right. But even after becoming an adult, my title remains the same.”
It had been a few years, but the title remained remarkably consistent. However, now it would seem awkward to call him by name.
“The dance is over, so you can freely come and go now. What do you think? Shall we return to the Grand Duke’s residence?”
“Do as you wish.”
“Or is it okay if Your Lordship goes first?”
“No. Let’s just go together.”
With Velion’s firm words, Delina no longer insisted on him going first. Velion simply glanced at the young men and women around him. As a result, those nearby gradually moved away, murmuring among themselves.
“Delina!”
Of course, there were those who paid no attention to Velion’s gaze. Eilie approached cheerfully from a distance.
“Long time no see.”
Afterward, even Gideon, who bowed his head, was seen by Velion, who then stepped back.
“Let’s talk when it’s time to go.”
“Oh, okay.”
Especially when Eilie approached, Velion subtly tried to disappear. Eilie, who approached, discovered the flower on Delina’s chest.
“What’s this? Could it be a gift from the Grand Duke?”
“Yes. He gave it to me as a present.”
“Really? That’s great!”
Upon hearing that, the surprised Eilie looked at Gideon.
“But Gideon also prepared a flower for you, didn’t he?”
“What?”
Thinking it was an absurd statement, Delina turned around, and indeed, Gideon was standing there holding a flower. Shocked by the absurd sight, Delina took a reflexive step back.
“…Is it something like a white chrysanthemum? For my future funeral?”
“Are you crazy to say that?”
Although he made a face of absurdity, Gideon handed the flower to Delina.
“But since we’re family, I brought it for you.”
“…”
“Since it turned out this way, I might as well attach two.”
“…Thank you. I’ll attach them well.”
Delina, with an unexpected flower gift from Gideon, accepted it with a bewildered expression. Even Eilie, who was standing by, looked at her with fascination.
“I’ve lived to see the heartwarming sight of the siblings here.”
“It’s actually awkward for me too.”
Even Delina, the person involved, was bewildered, so seeing Eilie felt strangely amusing. Delina, with a flower, looked at the two and asked.
“Come to think of it, why did you two come together?”
Then the faces of the two distorted simultaneously.
“We danced together at the end. With Gideon, of all people.”
“Let’s be clear. If we have to judge, I’m the victim here.”
Apparently, the two had danced together. Eilie, who held her head as if in despair, mumbled.
“No, absolutely not. Dancing with Gideon is out of the question, even though I danced as much as possible with the other young men. No, but still, I danced a lot. With Viscount Roden, with Viscount Smelnin, and then…”
“Do you remember all that?”
“Of course! How important do you think that is!”
“Why?”
“Oh, well. You probably don’t understand either. I haven’t done it recently either.”
Eilie lowered her voice and whispered.
Lately, there’s been talk among the young nobles. If you dance the coming-of-age ceremony dance with one of the young nobles, it’s inevitably linked.
“What? Really?”
“It’s not impossible. Do you know Lady Reje? She also met her husband for the first time during the coming-of-age ceremony dance, and, oh, Lady Saela too! She danced with her husband during the coming-of-age ceremony.”
“…”
“So, I came fully prepared this time. But still, excluding Gideon, everyone was a good partner…”
Delina remained silent even after Eilie’s continued words. Eilie continued talking, paying no attention, and the voices of people inside the banquet hall echoed incessantly. Thus, the night of the coming-of-age ceremony was passing.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
