A few days after such a party, the Albert family's long idle garden...... not a room in the mansion.

Normally, windows carrying a pleasant breeze are also tightly closed and, on the contrary, even curtains are closed if the sun does not allow. Even though the beautiful sight of a sunny courtyard was spreading if it opened, the indoor facades were face-to-face that they couldn't afford to indulge in it.

Heavy air would never be considered an elegant tea party.

Mary sitting on one leg takes a bite of tea and gives her gaze to the man sitting across the street with Chira.

"Sorry for the sudden visit"

Yes, it was Guidus who bowed his head with the apology.

Next to him, Parfet sipped his nose softly and murmured in a fine voice, "Dear Mary..."

"Never mind.... Well, I'm surprised you brought an immediate letter that spelled out you wanted to visit."

"I am so sorry...... I sent out your letter and said I would wait for your reply, but Parfett didn't ask me 'I'll take it' and threatened to reduce it at the end..."

"So you brought a letter."

"... Yes"

"Should I write the reply now? And of course, I'll write you," Whenever you want. "

To Mary's joke, Guidus drops his shoulder with regret.

But anyone would feel sorry if it was a visit with a letter saying, 'I need to talk to you, so I want time'. Normally, we would ask you first, get a response from them, and then we would finally visit. - Except for the princess and the crying lady.

However urgent, it is a violation of manners to come directly with your letter. In the first place, the letter has become utterly futile before all manners have been violated. The waxed letter with the quality Eldland family crest placed on the table invites strange sadness.

"But you mean it's so urgent. I just have time, and I'll let you hear it."

"Thank you"

"... but if this was just an insane fight, think that your two sweet routines would be staged under their real names."

"Bu, stage......!? If that happens, I'll be ashamed to walk outside again...!

To Mary's threats, Guidus strengthens himself with a screaming voice.

But the air was also dispelled by the sound of a knock indoors. If Mary replied, the door slowly opened, and it was Addy and Patrick who came in.

When Guinness and the others visited the Alberts, they also told Patrick they wanted to talk to him.

When Mary heard about it, she figured it was urgent even if she didn't know why, and she asked Addy to go and get her.

"Dear Patrick, I apologize for calling you all of a sudden"

"No, I'm fine. Sounds like something urgent, but what's going on?... That's not a crazy fight."

If Patrick turns his suspicious gaze, he shakes his head sideways as Guidus panicked.

That's how they all got to their seats and talked again… and Mary did her gaze at the faces surrounding the table.

Myself and Addy, and Patrick. Guinness and Parfet that we have a sudden story. Five people surround one table.

Not enough...... and Mary shrugged small in her heart.

Alicia should always be here.

When I hear of a tea party, I fly right in and sometimes hand out handmade cakes and cookies. That's not the only way she looks today.

No, not only today. After the day we saw the stage, there was no visit in the name of Alicia's raid.

From what I've heard about people, they're too busy to take up time, but until now, I've been here almost as often as I can say how busy I would be. - Even now, that day, I stayed tight instead of saying I was busy.

But Alicia's absence today is what Guidus said.

Mary spoke Alicia's name when she also told Patrick she wanted to talk. If it was about Patrick, it might have something to do with Alicia.

But in contrast, after a slightly contemplative look, Guidus re-said, "Just Master Patrick (...)".

"That rumor you don't want Alicia to hear... I didn't mean to spread it that way..."

In Patrick's heavy tone, Mary glanced at him.

It's like chewing up a bitter bug, the princes' unmistakable expression. The expression becomes more sinister if we take the silence of Gynus as affirmation.

But what does' that rumor 'mean...

Mary, who had no idea, stuck with Guidus saying, "I don't know what the hell this is about," that she was not comfortable with going on without knowing her deposits.

Rumors of Princess Alicia, discovered by Guinness, who was asked by Parfett.

It was a suspicion that she was not a fake princess.

Better than her ex, Alicia grew up in an orphanage while being a princess. It turns out she was in possession of a sealed wax that Mrs. Albert Carrell had made her have when she was kidnapped, and to this day she reunited with her parents, Her Majesty, but recently began to question there.

Is Alicia really a princess?

Purple eyes in blonde hair are a testament to royalty, but is that all you have to admit?

Aren't you someone else in red, born by chance with that shade?

Hasn't the royal family, who felt anxious to have no inheritance, planned and just brought in a girl of shades that fit from elsewhere?

A miracle reunion of parents and children who went and broke up. Isn't this a somewhat overdone story that leads to stronger domestic connections?

It's like someone's pulling a thread behind it......

... It's like,

It's like the royal family and the Dies, and the Albert family planned it hand in hand......

"What are you talking about?"

To Guidus's story, Mary raised her dissatisfied voice. I accidentally wrinkle between my eyebrows.

It was only at first that I listened seriously to the heavy stories, but suddenly the Albert family's name came up. It's also as the mastermind of a conspiracy I don't understand. I wouldn't have any choice but to manifest my dissatisfaction.

But in contrast, Gynath continued to talk without denying it, while giving him a hard look to say.

This rumor without clapping, which I suspect is natural, does not mean that I am in the social world.

Nearly half laughed with his nose that it was a stupid story, and even some of them were outraged that it was disrespectful.

Princess Alicia is undoubtedly the only daughter of both sires, that Albert family and the Dice family can't do that...... But some disputed them, and some of them even began to waver, "Maybe", pushed by the momentum of the disproval.

Rumors have started coming up at a bad time, and now the social community is in a state where speculation is calling for speculation on the Albert family inheritance issue. Everyone is floating around wondering who will be the heir and who they will gain if they follow.

Even more untimely...... or aim for it, both sires are in the midst of going around neighboring countries for diplomacy. Even if disrespectful rumors spread, it takes time for the country to move significantly.

Such a state of affairs has broken out, and rumors have spread that it would normally be kicked off with the Yotai story.

"This is a completely ridiculous story. Why would the Alberts and the Dies have to do that? It's not a joke to hear such rumors about you enduring a festive sale match!

If Mary revealed her anger, Addy, who sits next to her, has forgiven her by rubbing her arms. I'm also reluctant to forgive Mary for the look on her face.

Patrick, listening quietly to such interaction between the two, sighed in a small way. I deviate from my blue eyes to think about it for a while and wrinkle between my brows.

"I thought they might say something."

"What could it be?

"It's me and your house. There used to be a uniform sequence, but now the Dies and the Alberts, and the royalty, are cordial, and their authority can be said to be almost in the same line"

"Yeah, right."

What's that? and Mary gaze at Patrick.

In response to such a Mary inquiry, he worried for a while before opening his mouth like a sigh of sigh.

"The Dies and the Alberts have grown too big."

To Patrick's words, Mary rounds her eyes.

If you rush back to Addy, he has also turned his gaze to Mary without hiding his surprise. He opens it like his mouth said something, and swallows the words where they are in inches.

I almost said something I couldn't say here. That must be the same thing Mary thought.

Anyway, it was the words Patrick said earlier that Mary once said...,

That's why I wanted to fall.
