"Really? That's very interesting. I'm going out for business."

Mielle took a breath and left the mansion, looking totally uninteresting. As soon as the detestable figure disappeared, Annie, who was following the Countess, gritted her teeth.

"Then she'll find out later and drop a fork or a cup of tea!"

Because she had witnessed it several times while serving Aria, even the modest Jessie hurriedly covered her mouth and held back her laughter. The Countess, who grasped Annie's character with her sharp eyes, patted her hair.

"I think it's time to make use of your specialty."

"... My specialty?"

"Yes, I'm sure they're all curious about what happened today."

"Ahah!

Only then did Annie's eyes shined when she realized what the Countess meant. It was time to make the proud appearance of her master, who had been hidden.

Already, it would have been told through the mouths of thousands of people outside. So why not let the mansion know that? In order to give the right treatment to Aria who would return soon... The excited Annie hurried around the mansion.

"Everyone! Something great happened! Don't regret it later, let's get together quickly!"

'What's the big deal?' She was always the one who had brought new and interesting news, so the servants and maids, who were working all over the mansion, held out their heads, asking, "What's that?"

'Where will the Count, Cain, and Mielle, who went out, hear the news for Aria?'

Wherever it was, it must be a very interesting and enjoyable reaction that she had never seen before. The Countess disappeared into her room, humming and thinking that she might be called the mother of the Crown Princess, who had risen from a prostitute to a Countess.

Mielle's carriage, heading for the mansion of the Duke, stopped in front of a famous bakery. It was to find a cake that she had reserved in advance. In order to take a freshly baked cake, she had to make a reservation ahead of time. While her maid went looking for it, she removed the curtains covering the window and looked outside.

'There's a lot of people today.'

Nearby, the academy's completion ceremony had been held, and the ceremony seemed to have ended, and the attendees were out. This was the only way down because it was the Imperial Castle if they went up.

'So why did the Countess, who went out with Aria, come back alone?'

At that time, while she was questioning what was happening, they were surprised and stopped in front of the carriage of Mielle.

"...?"

Normally, if they found a noble's carriage, they should avoid it a little or bend their heads. Strangely enough, more and more people stared at the wagon or approached and snooped.

"What's going on?"

At Mielle's question, the knight, who had been waiting, went out of the carriage to check. When she glanced out of the window, Mielle opened her eyes wide to see people who had been rude and could not hide their happy faces, let alone avoid the appearance of the knight. People said something eagerly to the knight with their full excited faces, and the knight cocked his head and talked to them for a long time.
