"Um, lady Moriana." She said.

"Yes?"

"I really want to thank you for that one time. You know, for defending me at the tea party." She said embarrassedly.

'??'

"That was nothing. I just did that because I thought it was the right thing to do. Even if my reputation depends on it."

"Really. I'm very grateful of your actions. Here, it's a gift."

She handed me a cloth.

"I know it's not much but I made it from the bottom of my heart." She added.

It was a handkerchief. The Allisson household symbol was embroidered in it and my name was designed beside it.

It was very detailed and beautiful.

'Did she really become a fashion designer?'

"I heard that you made a dress for the princess in the neighboring kingdom. Is it true?"

"Ah, that was nothing. It was just my dream to be a fashion designer." She said while blushing.

'Aghh, how cute.'

We talked for a while and she was fun to talk to.

"I'll get going first lady Moriana. May Nirvana's blessing be upon you." She curtsied.

"Okay. Take care lady Stella."

I bid her goodbye as she rode the carriage.

Many things happened today.

I deserve a rest.

"Young miss, I already prepared your bed." Kelly said as ahe came running towards me.

"Alright."

I walked inside and finally arrived in my room.

"Good night to the two of you then." I said before I entered the room.

"Good night young miss/my lady." The two of them said simultaneously.

I nodded.

"Hahhh...it was a long day."

I can't believe I confronted the heroine like that.

But what I need right now is pure rest and sleep.

...

Today is another day.

I decided to go out and explore around the town.

I already finished reading the books last time. Maybe I need to look around the bookstore again.

"Young miss. Where are we going this time?" Kelly asked.

"Hmm, just wandering around the town I guess? And maybe visiting the bookstore again."

"Right young miss, there's another novel that I haven't told you yet."

"Ooh....tell me when we get there then."

"Alright." She replied.

We walked out of my room together.

"Let's get going Justin."

He just nodded and followed me directly.

We rode by the carriage and arrived there after ten minutes.

'Ah, there's the bookstore.'

I got off the carriage and walked towards it.

"Welcome." The person in charge said.
