“Wow…”

“Look at them.”

“How can you be so beautiful?”

The entrance to the mansion was noisy, so when I looked down from the second floor, the maids and servants were facing the arriving guests.

And the guests immediately looked up to see if they felt my gaze.

“What are you doing there? Are you going to keep watching?”

Lucia, dressed in a gorgeous light pink dress, as if matching her hair color and color, spoke to me with sleepy eyes.

Beside her, Vivian, dressed in a neat navy blue dress, bowed her head shyly.

“I will guide the guests. Everyone go back.”

I went down the stairs defeating the servants.

As I got in front of them, Lucia looked me up and down and tilted her head.

“It’s not a banquet attire, is it?”

“uh. I’ll have to change in a little while before leaving. Isn’t it a greeting first?”

“long time no see. How have you been?”

“No, every day is hard. Vivian, come this way.”

I held out my hand to Vivian, who still had her head down and was at a loss.

“Your clothes look good on you.”

When she saw my hand, she blushed and placed her own hand in a gentle way.

“huh.”

After that incident, I felt a bit embarrassed, but I couldn’t take my eyes off her.

After standing there for a while, Lucia intervened from the side.

“It was prepared by our family. Of course, it has to be pretty.”

“Are you from Hollington with me?”

“yes.”

When I entered the drawing room, the noise outside the bustle of work in the middle of the day disappeared and it became quiet.

Lucia sat on one side of the sofa as if it were her own home and gestured to Vivian.

“Sister, sit here.”

“huh.”

I asked the parlor servant for Rastilia tea and sat across from them.

“It’s the first time since the war.”

“Iknow, right. It looks like you must have been quite busy.”

“I told you, every day was hard. Is the Lord of Everlast safe?”

“You’re too busy these days, so you’re even taking care of me. Still, listening to what he said, if Cromwell were busier, he would have been busy, but I don’t think he was worse than us.”

As she said, a month had already passed since the war with the barbarians had ended, but it was still a hectic day.

If the academy hadn’t pushed back its vacation schedule due to the aftermath of the war, Amy would have been in quite a bit of trouble without my help.

“Isn’t Vivian also going to be awarded a medal for her merit this time?”

“huh.”

“Good. You don’t have to worry about your career after graduation.”

At my words, she just turned her head away in embarrassment.

Seeing us like that, Lucia sighed and shook her head.

“Ehh.”

“Why are you sighing all of a sudden?”

“no. It’s just that someone is a bit frustrated.”

Who are you talking about?

Are you talking about Vivian?

As I was about to ask her questions, Amy knocked on the door and came in.

“Welcome, both of you. Lucia-sama, it’s been a while. Is the person next to you Vivian? My name is Amy Cromwell.”

“It’s been a while. How have you been?”

“Vivian Velocan. Please take good care of me.”

Seeing Amy appear faster than expected, I immediately asked.

“Are you ready already?”

“Oh, oppa, change quickly too. I’ll take care of the guests.”

After leaving Amy to serve the customers, I went back to my room and changed my mind.

As with ordinary nobles, a servant would originally dress me in clothes, but I, who had memories of my previous life, struggled to put on clothes by myself.

Next time I’ll just have to ask for help.

“Shall we leave now?”

When I came back down to the parlor, everyone just looked at me and said nothing.

After a strange silence, I wondered if you hadn’t heard, so I spoke again.

“Let’s go.”

“Uh, uh.”

Amy nodded and rose from her seat.

Then he came up to me with a strange smile and slapped me on the shoulder.

“Why are you suddenly like this?”

“I thought I had eyes to see. Are you killing your teeth? I never knew.”

“This dress? I had a hard time wearing it, but the hard work seems to be worth it.”

By my standards, it was a black suit with a bit of fancy embroidered decorations all over it.

Fortunately, the embroidery was only a little darker, and it was the same black color, so it didn’t show too much, so there was no burden.

Needless to say, this outfit was custom-made by Amy.

I was completely out of touch with fashion, so I wasn’t involved in anything other than measuring.

“I was really surprised. I never knew it when she always wore only a baggy robe like a wizard.”

Lucia looked me up and down and smiled.

“I wear a robe because I am a wizard, not like a wizard.”

“Ah, I see. Senpai, were you a wizard?”

She grabbed Vivian’s hand, who was staring blankly at me, then got up and came closer to me.

Then he touched the embroidery on my clothes and chattered.

“Sister, look at this. Why did you make it the same color? It’s so beautifully nailed.”

“My older brother is shy, so I did it on purpose. You’re the younger brother I want to deceive…”

I didn’t know that such a behind-the-scenes story was hidden.

However, in the eyes of her who accurately grasped me, I thought that my younger sister was also a younger sister.

“Sister Vivian?”

“Yes?”

“how is it? The senior wearing a suit?”

Now I see Lucia, this guy…

Apparently, he knew Vivian’s confession.

Deliberately embarrassing Vivian seemed to overlap with the way she had troubled me in the first place.

“Ready to depart.”

Just in time, Maria, Amy’s secretary, came to us and said,

As she was also participating as a secretary, she was dressed to the fullest, even if it wasn’t a dress.

“It will be a long carriage trip. now. Let’s go.”

Amy urged Lucia and Vivian out first.

As I looked at the two of them, who were pushed toward Maria by her natural touch, Amy came over to me and whispered a whisper in my ear.

“what?”

“Suddenly what? And why are you whispering?”

“Vivian Velocan, are you and your brother like that?”

I was taken aback for a moment, but I kept my typical expression and tapped Amy on the shoulder.

“It’s not like that. Let’s go.”

“no? really? I think that’s right…”

“Don’t be rude in any way. Because it really isn’t.”

“okay. You must know that because my brother is like that.”

Amy, who smiled and followed the group, was somehow unreliable.

This banquet, held at the imperial palace, traveled by carriage.

Of course, taking the train was much quicker and more convenient, but in the case of banquets held at the imperial palace, it became customary to ride in their own carriages to maintain dignity as numerous nobles flocked to them.

Thanks to this, a procession of fancy carriages was lined up at the imperial palace, where they had barely arrived after spending several days sleeping unexpectedly.

“I came here to come a little early, but everyone is diligent.”

Amy muttered as she watched the long line in front of the imperial palace.

It’s a matter of course here, but high-ranking nobles get a free pass, but insignificant nobles like us had no choice but to wait in line.

“You are struggling to buy. Wearing a tailcoat and sleeping on the street for several days isn’t enough, waiting like this…”

“Because that’s polite. Well, I can’t help it.”

Occasionally, the background was medieval, so there was useless formality.

It was like riding a carriage with the train next to it, but the most frustrating thing was the change of clothes.

It’s not that anyone checks it, but it’s natural to see women wearing dresses and enduring for days.

Of course, simple washing is possible with magic, so it’s better than the experience of a previous life where you spent a few days in place solving the toilet and urine.

‘I should get used to it.’

Come to think of it, when I first came here, everything else was uncomfortable.

These things will gradually get better.

smart.

Then there was a knocking sound from the coachman in front.

“Sir Cromwell. An imperial palace gatekeeper has come.”

At the coachman’s words, I opened the carriage window.

“Meet Your Excellency Cromwell. I am Bayer Montaigne from the Imperial Palace Guard.”

“Nice to meet you, Sir Bayer.”

I wondered if he had come to check his identity, but it felt like he had come right here without visiting the other wagons.

“It’s nothing else, the Cromwell family has come here because the people above contacted them saying that they can enter right away.”

“······Is that so.”

At the words of the knight, the atmosphere of the people inside the carriage was felt to lighten.

“Is it because you made a lot of contributions in this war? Thanks to my brother.”

“I want to go quickly and rest.”

I hesitated for a moment.

This is the Imperial Palace.

For me, it was a place like a tiger’s den, and a place where you should never be vigilant.

There was a high probability that the imperial palace already knew my identity, and they probably thought that I was hostile to my father because of it.

In fact, I had no intention of taking revenge for my father here, whom I hardly remember, but in the end, the emperor was a huge obstacle to defending this world, so from the point of view of the imperial palace, my enemy did not change.

“I wonder if they are superiors….”

“These are people I dare not speak of.”

Unlike other people, as a knight working in the imperial palace, he could not carelessly mention the imperial family.

The story is that a member of the imperial family or the emperor himself gave the order…

‘Even if I don’t accept this, it’s difficult, and even if I accept it, it’s difficult.’

I don’t know if he calculated the order and gave it, but he got it right.

If the emperor had issued an order, it was clear that he intended to make me in trouble, and if it was an order issued by another member of the imperial family, it would have been an act of ignorance.

“All right. Let’s go.”

Although Cromwell was a count, his prestige was weak.

It was obvious that other families would look at it like this with a free pass.

However, refusing the imperial palace’s offer could have been a great disrespect, so in the end choosing one of the two would inevitably result in a loss.

‘I was looking forward to it, but he’s blowing the first bread properly.’

The imperial palace was a pandemonium.

An aristocratic society, a place where all sorts of strife take place, enough to be called another world.

When I thought that the hand was already reaching out, I was elated without knowing it.

“Was it that good?”

“uh?”

“Your brother is laughing right now.”

I realized I was smiling at Amy’s words.

And as soon as he realized it, he smiled even brighter.

“uh. I was expecting something more than that.”

“······okay?

The quick-witted Amy looked at me with a slightly stiff expression, perhaps noticing something, and was lost in thought.

Lucia muttered indifferently about us.

“You must be looking forward to it. Because a great major awaits.”

“yes.”

Major?

It would have been nice to have it for sure.

But for me, since I don’t want to lose money while doing something, it was just something I gained, not the main purpose.

Most people probably think the same as Lucia.

“I’m really looking forward to it.”

What else can I get from the imperial palace?
