Once again, it was me who caught his eye.

Caesar was sipping from the already cooled tea.

He hummed pleasantly, as if savoring the taste and aroma.

“The effect is good.”

“…Please, keep it down!”

Anyway, it was a problem whenever serious discussions came up.

I tried to listen carefully behind me, but it seemed like no one heard.

“Ugh, Slya. Another hot one?”

“It’s tea, of course.”

It was the voices of the young ladies behind me.

Unless the entire second floor was rented out, it was easier to eavesdrop on conversations beyond a room.

“Do you like this kind of thing?”

“Rebecca, over delicious tea. Of course, it’s good.”

“I hate it. I want to drink something so cold it gives me a headache.”

Rebecca, called by that name, complained a lot.

Whether it was due to the energy running out or not, the sound of Rebecca leaning against the wall was audible.

“It’s not summer now but winter, Rebecca.”

“So what? We’re already burning up inside; shouldn’t we drink something hot?”

“Ah… well.”

When Slya sympathized as if there was something on her mind, Rebecca retorted.

“Harriot, you bastard… just die.”

“Well, if the windy bastard would die, too.”

Judging by the situation, it seemed like Harriot had flirted with Rebecca.

“I’d like to roast both Harriot and Piet.”

After a while, unable to endure frustration, the sound of Rebecca slamming the table was heard.

“Ugh, is there no exciting and refreshing drink?”

“How about iced tea?”

“I’m tired of that, too. I’ve been drinking it every day lately.”

“Kids these days, drink that, and you’ll catch a cold.”

“What cold? These days, it’s warm everywhere. I wish it would snow heavily.”

Noble young ladies who mainly stayed indoors or went shopping as a hobby didn’t have time to feel the cold.

Because there was heating magic outside, and cafes and mansions of nobles all had underfloor heating.

‘Freesia made underfloor heating popular.’

Of course, royalties for interior design were consistently deposited into my account.

“It’s all because of that guy that my family is hoping for me. Ah, I don’t want to go home.”

Rebecca sighed heavily.

Perhaps her family had expected Rebecca to get along well with Harriot.

“Ugh, I’ll order cold water for you.”

“Thanks. I need to drink something and calm down.”

Slya called the waiter and ordered cold water.

After a while, the sound of drinking ice water was heard, but afterward, the sighing sound persisted.

‘Well, nobles must have a lot of frustrating things.’

Infidelity, gambling, betrayal, and other private matters.

Viewed from a distance, it seemed like a comedy, but up close, it was a tragedy.

The more you looked closely, the more there were stories that were overwhelming and overflowing.

‘In times like this, that would be helpful… Ah!’

I remembered. A way to captivate the nobles.

But there was a problem.

‘It’s not nighttime now.’

To obtain what I wanted, I had to go to the DreamMart.

Now dreams were adjustable.
I could summon the mart only when I wanted to obtain something, but eventually, the entrance we went through was the same.

It’s not an easy task to force yourself into the dream when you can’t sleep.

‘I need that.’

I suddenly stood up.

“Caesar, I need to go for a moment. Do you want to come with me?”

He nodded without questioning.

I quickly took out Hyang-i.

“I’m going to your owner.”

Hyang-i, full of excitement, created a door on the wall.

Since the surroundings were blocked, there was no problem going in for a short visit.

We jumped into the extra-dimensional space.

“Dnuar!”

Today, the door to the hole shop was open.

I immediately approached the shop, grabbed the boss’s collar as if I were going to talk, and said,

“Give me the door anywhere!”

“…What?”

“Hurry up, I don’t have time!”

At my urging, he pointed to the menu.

“…Are you talking about this, by any chance?”

Want to go to the mart without dreaming?

Try using this key anywhere!]

‘This is it.’

It was the key I was looking for, the one that could create a door to the mart in reality.

‘It’s a pity that it’s disposable.’

I immediately handed over the card.

“Give me that.”

“I’ve received the card.”

After a while, the item that came out…

“Why is it Hyang-i?”

When I asked in bewilderment, Dnuar shamelessly replied,

“Because my kin can open it.”

At the same time he finished speaking, Hyang-i avoided my gaze.

The last magic card had already passed into Dnuar’s hands.

I immediately grabbed Hyang-i’s collar, or rather, fur, and shook it.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

Isn’t this totally a scam duo?

My empty hands, which were instantly dominated, could only be resentful.

But there was no time to complain.

‘Today is the social gathering.’

I had to quickly take out the items and get ready to attend.

‘But do I have to take Caesar with me?’

It felt like showing some business corruption, but oh well.

“Let’s go.”

I reached out to him.

The moment Caesar grabbed me, a new door opened.

Inside…

“What on earth is this?”
