"Yes!"

Anyway, the banquet was held inside, but Mrs. Seri worried that the sleeveless dress might be too light, so she sent a matching cloak as well.

I was ready to go out only after putting on white stockings and white round-toed shoes.

"Shall we go to the Lord, Miss Irene? You will enter the banquet together."

"Yes, let's go."

I took Rosaria's hand and, fiddling with the ribbon tail on my chest, headed towards Cade.

Knock. Knock.

"Lord, this is Rosaria."

"Come on in."

As I opened the door and entered, I saw Cade wearing a black suit that matched his body perfectly with a white tie filled with luxurious gold embroidery.

Cade, who was wearing his white gloves and looking in the mirror, tilted his head and lowered his gaze as I approached.

I unknowingly shouted at his sight.

"Wow. Daddy is so cool."

"Cool?"

"Yes! The coolest in the world!"

When I shouted, the people who were helping Cade get ready began to help me one by one.

"It seems that the young lady really likes you."

"Right! How much do you like the Lord, Miss?"

Cade seemed to be waiting for an answer, so I smiled broadly.

"I like Daddy the best in the world!"

"Oh my. The Lord is number one."

"Yes! Daddy gave me pocket money, sent me Kasa, raised me......."

When I listed them one by one, there were countless. As the reasons increased, the corners of Cade's mouth, which had been expressionless, went up in satisfaction.

I laughed along with that kind of Cade, and Baon came inside the room in our friendly atmosphere.

"Lord."

"Hmm?"

"Now is the time to join the banquet. Everyone is waiting."

"Seth and Arban?"

Come to think of it, Seth and Arban were nowhere to be seen.

Maybe they're not going together?

"The two are waiting in front of the banquet hall."

"Right."

It seemed that the preparations were quickly completed and they had arrived in advance.

Cade looked at me who was a little anxious and said.

"When the banquet starts, can you introduce yourself without being nervous in front of everyone?"

"I can do well."

"Good girl."

He held out his hand. I grabbed the hand with all my might and all my trembling seemed to go away.

"Then I hope you have a good banquet, Miss Irene."

"Isn't Rodaria coming?"

I took a step back and looked back at Rosaria, who said goodbye. Of course, I thought we were going together.

"It's a problem if there are too many people from a certain family at the banquet. I'll be cheering you on, from a place you can't see."

"Hm. Okay, Rodaria. See you later."

"Yes."

I was sorry, but I couldn't help it.

Leaving Rosaria behind, I headed to the party with Cade.

Cade, who was slowly walking at my pace, opened his mouth.

"I prepared toy presents at the entrance of the banquet hall."

"Really?"

"Yes. Check it out when you get there."

"Let's go!"

I wanted to see it sooner, so I walked quickly. I hope everyone likes it.

As we passed through the hallway leading to the East Building, the lobby and garden were filled with people I had never seen before.

I saw people wearing clothes that were completely different from those of the South, and others with completely different looks. As I was passing through the crowd filled with curiosity at the different kinds of people, someone approached Cade, pretending to know him.

He was a very bright-looking man.

"Isn't it Astrophels? It's been a while."

"Long time no see."

"You seem to have put a lot of thought into this banquet. My child is very happy with the gift."

"Really? That's a good thing. By the way, it was proposed by this one."

"This one...?"

When Cade pointed at me, a man with a huge white cloth around his arm turned his head toward me. Now it was my turn to introduce myself.

I took a deep breath and spoke in a clear voice.

"Hello. I'm Iline."

"...Iline?"

"Iline...... Iren."

Oh my God.

I made a teary face.

Contrary to the momentum I was so proud of, my pronunciation was messed up. I repeated it several times to correct the name, but the result was the same. As I grew pale, the man opened his mouth as if he had just realized it.

"Is your name Irene?"

"That's right! Irene!"

I nodded my head with a bright smile, and the man's eyes widened. And soon he burst into laughter.

"Who is this cute little girl, Duke Astrophel?"

"She's my daughter."

"Oh? Weren't there only two successors?"

I could feel that the people gathered in the garden and lobby were paying attention to this place. In particular, they had excited expressions on their faces when looking at me.

As I sneaked behind Cade, the man who kept glancing at me lit his eyes. He seemed to be curious about my existence.

"There are three. She is the first daughter of the Astrophel family in 50 years."

"I see."

"The banquet is in full swing, so I hope you enjoy it to your heart's content."

Cade announced the end of the conversation. However, I felt the man staring at me without leaving his place, so I peeked out my head.

After exchanging glances for a few seconds, the man murmured in a voice full of envy.

"...Daughters are indeed a little different. I am Hoshit of the Fox Clan. Call me when you come to the West, Lady Irene."

As I nodded my head to say yes, Hoshit smiled brightly and disappeared into the banquet hall.

I put my hand on my beating heart.

Good. I did a good job without being too nervous. Just do it like this!

When I followed Cade to the entrance to the banquet hall, I saw Seth and Arban, both dressed in stylish suits, waiting for us.
