Chapter 80: 62

Editor: DoraiO

His Majesty the King’s ruling was over and the nobles were dismissed.

On the way back, I tried to look for Remy and Remias-sama, but I couldn’t find them.

I didn’t see them at all, so they might not have been there during the audience.

But I felt worried for the two of them, but at the same time, I was somewhat relieved, and I felt self-loathing.

It’s because I don’t know what to say to them.

Although he had committed a crime, it pains me to think how much he must be suffering because his Father was going to be found guilty of the death penalty.

But it’s so far beyond the scope of my imagination that it’s difficult to replace it with my own.

…I’ll write to you when things have calmed down.

Maybe it’s important to leave things alone for now, I thought as if it was an excuse to myself, and I was depressed again.

When I arrived at the mansion from the royal palace by carriage, Shishi tackled me and almost blew me off.

AD

…I’ll have to teach Shishi a lesson about going easy on me next time…….geez.

Other worried servants greeted me with tears in their eyes and were pleased to see that I was safe.

”Ya-, young Lady! I’m so worried, I’m so worried…”

“I’m so glad you’re safe, young lady. I thought my life would be shortened….”

While I was busy comforting Shishi and her maidservants and rubbing the back of Sebastian the butler, the sinking feeling I had just experienced was much lighter.

It was while I was bustling about in that way that I heard a shout from the kitchen.

I went to peek in to see what was going on, and there was Pete collapsing in front of a massive pile of croissants.

And the Head Chef was crying like a man, shaking every muscle in his body.

“Pete, Pete! Pete? Snap out of it! Chef! What’s going on? Don’t tell me something happened to Pete?!”

“U oooo,uooooo girl! Please enjoy your croissant”

“E.”

Pete was just sleeping.

Apparently, the Head Chef and Pete had been making croissants all night long.

“That’s an awful lot of croissants….”

The kitchen is crammed with piles of croissants.

….but I’ll climb it!

To reward Pete for being a star in the croissant….

“My arm!”

I smacked my cheeks and got into the swing of things, and started eating every single croissant I could find.

That’s the chef’s croissant.

The ones I had eaten at the Royal Palace were good enough, but the one made by the Head Chef were superb.

The texture is light as in a golden, crispy pie.

The moment you bite into it, the aroma of rich butter tickles your nostrils, and the exterior is crispy.

The outside is crispy, but the inside is moist and flavorful, with layers of lightly textured dough.

AD

I can assure you that I have never encountered such a delicious croissant in my entire life, including my past life!

It’s like a treasure hunt, with chocolate and custard cream mixed in with the croissants.

I couldn’t resist picking up one after another.

I was so absorbed in eating them that I stopped midway through the pile of croissants.

“Young lady?”

Shishi, who was eating a croissant next to me, notices me and calls out to me.

”Guru … jiii …”

That was all I could do.

“Young lady?! Young Lady!!”

Ba-ching-ba-ching!

Huh!

“Ouch!”

""

The button on the back of the dress I was wearing popped off and hit Pete, who was lying down.

I had forgotten that what I had done with me was to wear the dress His Royal Highness had given me.

This dress was so slender, you know.

I thought I was going to die from too much pain.

”Fuu. Too many croissants, my buttons are dangerous!”

My stomach eased up, so I grabbed another croissant.

As I was munching on it, I was grabbed by a gasp on my shoulder.

….I feel like I shouldn’t turn around……but I feel like it would be even worse if I didn’t…

I got scolded and turned my head with a giggle, and I saw Shishi with a blue streak on her forehead.

I tried to pretend I didn’t see her, but this time she grabbed both my shoulders, so I couldn’t escape.

”….Young Lady? Madam tells me this dress was given to you by the Queen.”

“E, yeah, that’s right. I have an old dress from the Queen’s wardrobe.”

AD

“If I’m not mistaken, the button that just hit Pete looked like a pearl.”

“I-Is that so? Oh no, Shishi, even I can’t see my back, no matter how much I want to – hahaha….”

I’m afraid of Shishi.

I was taken by Shishi to change my clothes, trembling with fear.

But don’t worry.

I didn’t miss a beat, and while Shishi was dragging me away, I was still properly clutching the croissant in both hands!

… Let’s not mention Shishi’s fury at the butter stain from the croissant on her dress afterward.
