Liz, who had come up to the room, had to tell the story of what she experienced in the banquet hall, suppressing her yawns until Mirabel was satisfied. It was lamentable to think that there were no recording devices in this world.
“So then? Who was that man?”
“I told you a little while ago. A disciple of my father.”
“But you didn’t tell me his name.”
“The name is…….”
What was it? Ka…… It seemed like something. This is serious. The man said he’d ask again next time.
But wait. If I don’t meet him again, that’s it, right?
Liz thought so and gave up on recalling the name. Then she continued to ask Mirabel, who was giggling.
“Do you like it that much that I danced with a handsome man?”
“It’s not that.”
“……?”
“I mean Miss Lilia. It’s fun to think that she has been pushed to the background.”
“You really……”
Has she turned dark, knowing that I had changed after all the effort of possessing her body?
“She didn’t get pushed away like that. At the end of the banquet, she received so many afterparty invitations from the men.”
“Miss? Did you receive one too? From that man?”
“……No.”
The smile disappeared from Mirabel’s face.
“No? No, did he lead you on and then not promise a next time?”
“I should be thankful for the lead. You can’t ask for too much.”
And in fact, the man looked too good to hope for something like that. Considering the women who followed him one after the other after parting with Liz, it seemed generous that he had been her dance partner for a while.
Mirabel pouted her lips as if regretful. Then, she started to tidy up the clothes and jewelry Liz had taken off, and noticing something missing, she asked.
“Miss, where did one of the topaz earrings go?”
‘That, that man took it as a sign of our meeting.’
Liz couldn’t tell the truth. In case Mirabel would get excited again.
“I…… I lost it. I must have dropped it somewhere while dancing.”
“I’ll go find it right away.”
“No, don’t do that!”
Was Liz’s urgent reaction unnatural? Mirabel looked at her with suspicious eyes. Liz made an awkward face and circumvented.
“That…… I mean…… Don’t bother looking for it on purpose. It must be rolling around somewhere when cleaning.”
Mirabel was about to say she would still look for it, but realizing that earring was part of a discounted set, she seemed to feel it wasn’t worth the effort, and came back to Liz’s side.
Liz took the opportunity to express her gratitude to Mirabel.
“You knew, didn’t you? That mother bought Lilia the highestgrade jewelry set.”
“Ah…… Yes. Somehow…….”
“Why did you hide something like that? Don’t do that from now on. Mother acting like that isn’t something new.”
“But…… Yes, I won’t.”
Mirabel seemed to have wanted to scold more but held back.
“Then rest, Miss.”
“You too.”
Mirabel took care of Liz’s bed and left the room.
Mirabel’s lips continued to twitch as she returned to her quarters.
‘It’s a bit disappointing that there was no afterparty invitation, but the fact that my Miss shined the brightest at the banquet today remains unchanged.’
Mirabel was so proud of this that she couldn’t bear it.
(This is a time separator.)
A few days later, during mealtime, the Countess of Berium passed on the news.
“The Duke of Bert’s house has sent an invitation to a tea party. Your name is on it, Lilia. The young duke seems to like you a lot. Considering he urged my mother to invite you.”
“……. ”
“So, I’d like to take you instead of Liz today, how about it?”
“I’ll follow Mother’s will.”
Lilia obediently consented.
But Liz caught the hesitation on Lilia’s face in a split second. And she noticed that Lilia’s eyes had briefly turned toward Kain, who was waiting on one side of the dining room.
‘Well, it would be troubling. To be caught between becoming a daughter that Mother likes and the man in her heart.’
Lilia tried hard to look good in front of her lady, even if it was because Liz was scary. Being out of her lady’s sight meant she would be literally kicked out of this house. So she tried to suppress her feelings for the protagonist Kain in the original work and even tried to marry a man who pleased her mother’s heart.
At this point in the original, Kain should come forward, confess his feelings to Lilia, and encourage her courage. Why does it not seem to happen at all?
Despite the fact that Bert, the little Duke, had been wandering around the entrance to the Duke’s house for the past few days, Kain showed no signs of caring. Could he be keeping his jealousy inside?
When Liz was puzzled by the lukewarm relationship between the two protagonists, Lady Berium spoke.
“I just got some highquality local products from the territory. I’ll have to take some on my way. I have a lot of luggage, who should I take with me?”
At that moment, Liz’s thought circuit worked quickly.
Before her mother chose Monica, Liz quickly said,
“Of course, you have to take Kain. He’s Lilia’s attendant.”
“……?”
All the eyes of those present gathered on Liz at once.
