It was then when Evelia, baffled by the whirlwind introduction, invitation, and even an outrageous proposal of engagement, had her soul sucked out and stood there with her mouth agape.
The chaos settled down in an instant with someone’s appearance.
“Is it Lady Artina?”
A small girl, seemingly Rellian’s age, stood out.
Despite her ashcolored hair and gray eyes, she was more conspicuous than anyone here due to her bright red dress.
Perhaps she held a considerable influence. As the ashcolored girl approached confidently, the children who were surrounding Evelia stepped aside as if they had made a pact, creating a path.
“Nice to meet you. I am Seres from the DePont family.”
“Nice to meet you. I am Evelia Artina.”
Evelia extended a naive greeting.
Evelia was still a child. She was raised in a ducal house, receiving only favor and love.
Thus, it was difficult to assume that a child she met for the first time would harbor malice towards her.
“I thought you might not know since you seem unfamiliar, young lady. It’s not polite to cause such a commotion when entering the party hall.”
……?
“Also, when many people greet you, you should stand up to receive them.”
……Why is she doing this?
“Young lady, you seem to have many shortcomings. But since you are still very young, it’s not a huge shame.”
DePont…… DePont…… Where have I heard that…
Rolling her eyes, Evelia, who was thinking ‘where have I heard that name…’, suddenly exclaimed as if she had remembered something.
That snakeeyed duke’s family was DePont!
A twofaced person, indeed twofaced! I thought she was pretty before, but I take that back. I thought she was a savior, but I take that back too.
You would have died by my hand if I were a little older!
Right now, it was better not to react.
She couldn’t press back with words as they kept slipping out and getting muddled, only making her look like a laughingstock.
Evelia chose not to react and just sat quietly.
‘Huh. What’s this, she doesn’t react even when I’m talking like this? Is she an idiot?’
Seeing Evelia’s peaceful expression, as if saying ‘bark all you want, I didn’t understand anything’, Seres felt even more frustrated.
She wanted to shatter that serene expression. Sincerely.
Until Evelia was born, she was the highestranking young lady in this empire, the most splendid child, the future queen of the social circles, the child closest to becoming the future empress.
All these descriptions pointed to her and her alone.
But about 2 years ago.
Ever since Evelia’s first birthday party made her widely known to the nobles and the citizens of the empire, all the descriptors that were originally hers, and even the grand title of the contract holder of the spirit, were all taken by that little girl.
‘For what, she’s nothing special.’
Except for her golden hair, Seres saw nothing particularly special about her.
And from the bits of conversation she overheard from her father’s office, the Artina family was soon to become extinct.
It was clear that the love the little girl received from the spirits was merely a fluke.
When Artina becomes extinct in the future, I should keep that little girl as my slave. Seres thought, with a crooked smile.
In the eyes of Seres, who had thought that far, Evelia was not a noble princess but merely a noble from a soontobeextinct family.
It was because she was raised in a duchy, spoiled and told she was the highest princess in the world, without knowing anything about the world.
“Speaking of which, the Artina Knights have returned to the capital, right? I heard rumors that the family’s dog was scared of the demons and ran away.”
When she heard the false fact that insulted her knights, Evelia, who didn’t change her expression even when she was belittled, glared fiercely.
‘Finally, some reaction. Just as I like.’
Thinking she had achieved the goal of today’s party, Seres turned around, laughing heartily.
“How dare you, insult my knights?”
Evelia’s pronunciation was still unclear. Instead of saying ‘Artina’s knights,’ she used a somewhat lacking expression of ‘my knights.’
But her energy was icy enough to freeze all the noble children in their steps.
She was not just a hollow princess of the Artina family.
“Undine.”
Evelia called Undine, who had sworn to be her shield and sword.
Feeling Evelia’s emotion, Undine, who was usually docile, ferociously wagged its tail and whirled in the air.
The objective was to hit that unholy crowd of Seres with a single water balloon.
But Undine, more furious than her contractor, rained down a baptism of water akin to a waterfall over Seres’ head and disappeared.
“Kyaak!”
Taken aback by the firstever baptism of water, Seres glared as if to devour Evelia.
Evelia too, struggling to hide her startled gaze from Undine’s waterfall baptism, looked back at Seres.
As if a scene from a western movie, in the tranquil garden, they stared at each other.
