The Duke of Cassis, half a city away, had a different air of mystery compared to the duke’s house.
The walls of the castle, befitting of a magical and ancient family, were wrapped in blue magic, and transparent magic circles were floating around here and there.
The Arthina Duke’s House, like a martial family, was filled with spears and swords, but the Duke of Cassis’s House had a greener, more serene atmosphere.
As soon as the Duke of Cassis heard from a servant that the Duke of Arthina had arrived, he ran down with open arms to greet him.
“Ha ha ha Your Grace, I can’t remember when you last visited!”
The Duke of Cassis had led the war on the frontlines with the Duke of Arthina.
Even in the fierce battlefield, they clinked their glasses under the bright moon countless times.
They vowed countless times to properly blow off steam once the war ended, but once it did, both of them had no proper meeting outside the palace because they were taking care of state affairs.
The reason why the Duke asked Hugo to come earlier than the party time was because of this reason.
“Without visiting, I’ll feel neglected. You’ve been dozing in my office in the palace for a few days and nights.”
Actually, Hugo didn’t want to leave his precious daughter, who he wouldn’t hurt even if she was in his eyes, alone to attend and didn’t want her to see the dirty social circles yet.
So he refused the invitation from the Duke of Cassis, but he had to taste the Duke’s true tantrums afterward.
It was because the Duke of Cassis had lain in Hugo’s office in the palace for three days and nights making a fuss.
Reminded of it, the Duke of Cassis said with a somewhat embarrassed and flushed face.
“Uh ha ha ha, in fact, I wanted to see the princess more than Your Grace. The rumors are rampant within the empire, but it’s hard to get an audience when I visit the Duke’s House.”
Although he had visited the Duke’s House a few times, he had only encountered her once.
Even then, Evelia was engrossed in surprising the passersby by hiding behind the armors displayed on the second floor as usual.
When the Duke happened to be walking with Hugo and Evelia jumped out from behind the armor with a “Kwang!”, he had to apologize with, “I’m sorry……” That was all.
When her story came out of the Duke’s mouth, Evelia stepped one leg slightly back as she had seen somewhere, gently lifted the hem of her dress with both hands, and bowed her head slightly.
“May the Duke be filled with magic. I am Evelia Arthina.”
The proper greeting to give to a wizard is ‘Merciful Mana’ not ‘Magic Filled’, and the posture was also terribly sloppy.
But the child trying hard to follow the adults’ way of greeting looked quite cute, so the Duke couldn’t help but burst into a big laugh.
“Ha ha ha, our princess has grown up in such a short time!”
“Hehe.”
The compliment that she had grown up was more pleasing to Evelia, who twinkled her blue eyes and smiled sheepishly, than any other compliment.
“Ah, this is my son and daughter, Princess. Our Rellian has been weak and has no friends so far, but he would be very happy if you could become friends.”
The Duke introduced his sons and daughters with an additional comment.
The Duke’s daughter, Rellian Cassis, was six years old, three years older than Evelia, and she was born weak and hardly went outside the duke’s house.
Naturally, she couldn’t meet friends of her age, so the Duke of Cassis sincerely wished that Rellian and Evelia would grow up to be close friends like Icrian and Arkan.
“I am Icrian Cassis. I sincerely thank you, Princess, for your precious visit.”
Icrian kneeled two steps ahead of Evelia to match her eye level and smiled gently.
He tried to lightly touch her hand to his lips, as he would do with other young ladies of nobility, but as soon as he lifted his hand, he felt a very clear killing intent from the three men and silently returned it to its original position.
‘If I even slightly touched her, there would be a bloodbath…’
Icrian Cassis was completely opposite to the image the brothers had described.
Although he had heard the harsh criticism of ‘punk’, his violet hair and eyes gave a captivating and serious impression.
Just like a fox, a sly, tailwagging fox!
Icrian laughed with a grin, slowly stood up, and called the girl who was peeping out from behind the Duchess.
“Rellian, you should greet the princess, right?”
The girl’s face turned beet red in an instant as she approached Evelia hesitantly.
“Uh! Friend! Friend!”
Evelia’s eyes were already sparkling, her little hand twitching with eagerness to grasp her friend’s hand.
But Rellian, looking at the floor as she walked, didn’t notice it.
“I… My name is Rellian Kasis, Your Highness. I…I hope we could be good friends…!”
Rellian hardly ever interacted with people other than her elder brother, Ekrian.
Thus, stepping forward to greet Evelia amidst a crowd was a huge act of courage for her.
Rellian wanted to establish a close relationship with Evelia, braving her fear and shyness.
