Watching the roaring Oscars made me blank.
No, aside from the fact that he doesn’t have a good sense of humor, what kind of relationship are you talking about?
“What are you doing?”
Oscar sent me behind and asked the robed man.
“What are you doing! Master, calm down!”
I took the bouquet from Oscar’s hand. This is mine!
“There’s no way I’m dating without saying anything to my Master!”
“Right. That’s true.”
“…? No, wait.”
Aunt, who was listening, stepped in.
“What does this mean? Does my niece have to get permission— from the teacher to date someone?”
“That’s how it should be. A man sees a man best. What should I do if some punk is brought in from somewhere?”
“Ah, no matter how much it is.”
Aunt seemed a little displeased with the excessive interference, but Oscar spoke without giving up an inch.
The man and I watched the exchange between the two in the middle.
I sighed, and the man laughed as I saw his robe keep shaking.
“Aunt, this person is…”
“First of all, teacher. Don’t be so rude. Well, can I see your face?”
Aunt, who was arguing with Oscar, also stopped me and told the man.
“There seems to be quite a big age difference between me and Lilith.”
“I know. That’s not good. You can’t go over five years old.”
As Oscar encouraged her from behind, Aunt nodded.
“Of course, I respect Lilith’s opinion, but as an adult, I can give advice.”
“That’s true. As expected, you’re much wiser than your younger brother.”
What are you really doing?
“Ugh, really! Hurry up and show your face right now! Are you enjoying it?”
In the end, I can’t bear it anymore.
The man lifted his robe slightly and showed his face only to us.
“Oh my?”
“Ah, what is this!”
***
At that time, the palace.
The grand hall where the investiture banquet is in full swing.
“Cheshire is pretty good? How can you deal with so many ladies without a break?”
“Do you think that’s what he’s dealing with?”
Looking at the Cheshire surrounded by the ladies, Theo and Leon exchanged.
“Then?”
“Look closely at the shape of his mouth.”
Leon said, looking closely at Cheshire.
“He doesn’t move his mouth for more than 5 seconds. And he only uses ‘yes’ and ‘no’.”
“W, what?”
It was.
“I saw you from afar during the last victory parade. I am Rose of the Count Planz family.”
“Yes.”
“My name is Yvonne of the Count Laus family. Sir, congratulations on your official appointment.”
“Yes.”
Cheshire surrounded by all the glamorous and beautifully decorated ladies.
His reaction was consistent.
“Can you tell me about the last subjugation? I heard that your performance was truly amazing.”
“No.”
“….”
At this point, it’s understandable that the ladies who listen are offended.
“Oh my, as expected, you look just like I thought you would. How can you be so quiet and honest!”
“That’s right, Lady Planz. It’s really bad when a man talks too much. Especially the knights.”
They laugh like they’re happy.
‘I want to go home.’
Cheshire was really bored talking to them.
As a child soldier, he went to the battlefield many times and heard stories about a woman.
He was wondering why men always talk about women when they get together…
Even though he was in a place with a lot of women for the first time in his life, he still couldn’t figure out why.
‘Is there a problem with me?’
Does it seem like stones in dresses take turns visiting and talking?
He greeted almost everyone at the banquet today, but he didn’t remember anyone’s name.
“If you don’t mind, would you like to go see the opera on Lot Street next week?”
Rose Planz, the beautiful red-haired Count Young Lady, boldly placed her hand on Cheshire’s forearm and asked.
“Please don’t say no. I’m sad. I mustered up the courage to say it.”
“….”
Cheshire, who was about to say “No”, closed his mouth in response to Rose’s quick strike.
He thought for a moment and then lied.
“I’ve already seen it.”
“Ah, I see.”
Rose spread her fan in embarrassment and covered her mouth.
“T, that’s the first opera to open next week…. That, um. How did you see it already…”
“….”
At that time, Axion, who happened to come to see Cheshire, overheard their conversation and was embarrassed.
“Ladies, I need to talk to my son for a moment.”
“Oh my! Sir Axion, yes.”
“Hohoho.”
The ladies who spread out their fans stepped back with blushing cheeks.
Of course it was a short distance away. After the father and son’s conversation, they are ready to snatch Cheshire like a hawk again.
“That… father.”
Cheshire looked back at Axion as if he had been waiting.
“Yeah, I know what you want to say. You’re going to say you want to go home, aren’t you?”
“….”
“You can’t do that. I want to go too, but I’m staying because of you. At least you should stay until the banquet is over.”
Axion felt a bit sorry for his son.
‘Do I need to teach him separately how to deal with ladies? No, but I never learned anything like that either?’
Come to think of it, Axion himself was like this when he first entered the social world.
He just slowly acquired social and conversation skills as time passed and he got older.
‘He’s not even my biological son, so why do I look like this?’
Axion pressed Cheshire’s shoulder with a sigh.
“It’s almost over, so hang in there.”
“…Yes.”
“Are there any girls you like? Now you have to go to the victory banquet every time, so you need a partner.”
Cheshire shook his head at once.
“No, I’m not saying you should find a lover. I’m just saying that you should find a partner. If you don’t have a partner, you’ll have to suffer like this non-stop like today.
He said it after thinking about it, but Cheshire shook his head again.
“Promise…”
“What promise?”
“Lilith said she would like me to be her partner at the debutante banquet.”
“Really? But why is that?”
“Because she decided to give me the first partner position. I also don’t plan on doing anything with anyone else other than Lilith before then.”
“…?”
Axion opened his eyes wide.
“What are you saying? What kind of a partner means so much.”
“….”
“…This guy is serious. Are you saying this knowing that there are over 4 years left until her debut?”
Of course there’s no way he doesn’t know.
The son had declared that he would endure many of his social activities over the next few years without a partner.
“You really!”
“But, what about Uncle?”
Cheshire anticipated Axion’s nagging and quickly changed the subject.
“Enoch? Enoch is…”
Fortunately, Axion fell for it.
But,
“…I’m sorry. He left, that kid. A long time ago.”
***
When he took off his robe, Aunt and Oscar were surprised to see my father’s face revealed.
“Hahaha! Princess~!”
Dad smiled, quickly picked me up, and kissed my cheek.
“Mwaa~!”
“Daddy! Why are you here?”
“Oh my. What is this? Enoch, what about the children’s banquet?”
“Don’t worry, my face is visible. I was planning on just staying at the beginning then coming out and waiting anyway. I didn’t know when the princess salon would end…”
Which means, he was originally going to pick me up.
“Then you should have told me yesterday!”
“If I told you, you would have told me not to come!”
“That’s right! What if you come to pick me up at the anonymous salon!”
“Ey, look at me. That’s why I secretly came here with my face covered. If the princess made a lot of friends, I was just going to see you from afar and go home.”
Dad, who was speaking, stuck out his tongue.
“Wow, but everyone thought the same. While I was waiting, noble ladies came one by one. Dad was really embarrassed.”
“Mhm, I was surprised, too.”
“Dad has a hard time showing his face, so I was worried about what I should do. I didn’t expect my sister to be here.”
Dad burst out laughing while looking at Oscar.
“I didn’t know that the princess teacher would dress up so nicely.”
“I know. I was surprised too. It’s nice to see because he’s tall, and please continue to walk like this from now on.”
“…”
Oscar slowly turned his head between the teasing siblings.
“Enoch, I haven’t finished my schedule with the ladies yet, so I have to go right away.”
“Sister, thank you for your hard work.”
“What? See you later. Teacher, thank you for your hard work too. My pretty girl, please go in carefully.”
Aunt, who greeted me by touching my cheek, quickly got into the carriage and left.
“Wow, who knows? I wonder if the Wizard Tower has been coated with honey, and the Lord of the Wizard Tower, who doesn’t usually show up, showed off this much strength and came to the salon with young ladies? No one would have imagined that, right?”
“Hey, that’s enough.”
“Hahaha! I hope the princess has a rich teacher! Look at that carriage, the carriage. Something that shines brightly.”
Dad kept teasing him while hugging me.
“Princess, I’m hungry because I came here without eating anything. Let’s ask the princess’ teacher to buy us a delicious dinner.”
“Ah? That’s good!”
I said to Oscar.
“Master, Master! We decided to go eat something delicious! Will you buy it for me too?”
“Haa…”
“Of course please buy it for Dad too. All the Lord of the Wizard Tower has is money, but you are only stacking them and not using it.”
“Excuse me, I didn’t stack them up to use them for you?”
Dad, who ignored Oscar’s words lightly, quickly climbed into the carriage with me in his arms.
“I’ll ride in a carriage, too! I have to eat expensive food~!”
“Haha! Let’s eat meat! Meat!”
“Ahaha! Okay~!”
Oscar trembled at the sight of us exchanging.
“Oh, really! Why are you here, that human!!”
****
The evening when the banquet was almost over.
The room of the Emperor, Nicholas.
The moonlight, shining through the sprawling window, fell over the coveted blonde of a young and beautiful man.
“Hmm.”
Nicholas, leisurely leaning on the sofa, twirled his wine glass and thought of someone.
Cheshire Libre.
He really liked the look in his eyes when he met him at the investiture ceremony today.
A young generation of Dos.
He was about to become the man in power of the new era.
“Your Majesty, I hear you called me.”
At that time, a middle-aged nobleman with sharp eyes came to see Nicholas.
“Yes, it’s nice to see you. Sit there.”
Nicholas smiled.
The man is Marquis Roger Onyx.
Hee was the biological father of Cheshire Libre.
Watching the roaring Oscars made me blank.
No, aside from the fact that he doesn’t have a good sense of humor, what kind of relationship are you talking about?
“What are you doing?”
