Unable to find anything wrong with her behavior, Joseph could not finish his sentence. In the shady corner of the garden, there were several hidden spots obscured by dense trees. Ines thoroughly scanned the surroundings as if she could not see them.
“I know your mind, but I hate this uneasy way. If my father sees this, even coming outside like this might become impossible.”
“But there’s no way to meet otherwise.”
“Can’t you endure it a little for the many days we’ll spend together in the future?”
He looked disappointed but nodded in agreement with her words. Then he quickly looked at her with enchanted eyes.
“You look really beautiful today. The dress matches Ines’s eyes so well.”
Ines finally scowled.
The reason she wore this dress was to express her gratitude to Carson Raymond. So she wanted to hear his impression first, even if he didn’t say it was beautiful.
Unable to bear any more time with him, she put strength into her toes to leave.
“Thank you, but I must go now.”

“So soon?”
As Ines turned to leave, Joseph grabbed her wrist again. She reflexively swatted his hand away.
“Joseph, don’t do this.”
Joseph looked at his empty hand suspended in midair for a moment. For an instant, his youthful expression seemed to cool, but he quickly resumed his innocent smile.
“Can we meet again when it gets dark?”
She rubbed her grabbed wrist and composed herself. She couldn’t let him notice her state any longer. Ines flashed a bright smile at him.
“Of course, why not? I heard there’s a patronage at the lord’s mansion. See you there later.”
“What time?”
“I can’t say for sure. I’ll go now.”
Ines quickly moved away from him without asking for his understanding.

(This is a time separator.)
The lord of Risonia appeared in the banquet hall with his daughter instead of his son.
Carson was royalty before he was a lord. Thus, it was right for Count Graham, a vassal of the empire, to bring all his subjects and seek him.
Risonia, bordering the sea, was undoubtedly a larger territory than Landhill, and it had more arable land compared to the mountainous Landhill. Therefore, Risonia had behaved for quite a long time as if Landhill was a mere appendage to their territory.
That the heir of Risonia’s territory did not need to personally greet the lord of Landhill was an arrogant expression of intention, no different from making it clear.
Graham Earl’s daughter was a glamorous beauty with red hair and black eyes. And Joseph Brnoa was right next to her. Seeing that, Ines realized that Joseph had appeared here as Graham’s lady’s escort.
The banquet flowed naturally. Decorating the garden to welcome guests was the host’s duty, but the banquet hall was prepared by the nobles.
The banquet hall was small and the atmosphere was simple, but Carson could tell that the nobles had very earnestly prepared a welcome party.
Though Carson did not direct it, the place where he was standing was prepared as if it were a place to receive royalty.
Standing on a single platform, his overwhelmingly tall stature made others look up to him. The nobles, one after another, waited in line to greet him.
The same was true for Lord and Lady Swenden and Ines. Her father was handling urgent business and was a little late, so she had to wait quite a while to meet him.

Soft music flowed in the hall, and one by one, the nobles who had finished their greetings dispersed to enjoy the banquet.
As the noble family in front of Ines was greeting Carson, the lord of Lesonia approached him with his daughter in tow. Suddenly overwhelmed by an unpleasant feeling, Ines frowned deeply.
This was the first time Ines had seen Graham Earl’s face in person. With a perfectly asymmetrical mustache, he had a lean face with long eyes. The color of his pupils, wrapped as if in a cloudy film, was hard to describe exactly.
“Earl Raymond, the banquet is excellent today.”
Graham Earl’s words were heard clearly by Ines because he was standing close.
“Don’t mention it…”
Carson didn’t look at him but reached out his hand to the person standing in front of him for a handshake, responding. The ones who were feeling awkward due to the cold air flowing between the two were actually the people standing around them.
“I’ve come with my daughter today.”
“I can see that.”
Despite the unpleasantness of not even being looked at, Graham Earl spoke as if he did not feel Carson’s indifference, skillfully continuing the conversation.
