Drop!! ～A Tale of the Fragrance Princess～ (WN)

Luckily, Cordelia prepared herself for the future queen... and had very little difficulty getting an education. In addition to his education as an original noble maid, he was educated not to have any trouble succeeding Uncle Weltoria, because of his many other knowledge, such as what he learned through trading and management.

Of course, I had new memories, but thanks to them, I still lived roughly the same life as before, even before the engagement announcement, and now that the announcement was made.

But something a little different happened today than usual.

"Ma'am, Your Highness Sylvester is here."

"Huh? That's unusual. Please let me through... not at all. I'll go."

Lara told me that Cordelia rushed from the greenhouse to the entrance.

Though not many times, Cordelia is also finding it a daily comma for Sylvester to come to the Mansion, but unlike Vernault, who was coming freely, Sylvester has never suddenly come before. And I didn't make any promises today, so Cordelia even worries about what happened.

However, Sylvester stood smiling at the arriving entrance.

Cordelia was relieved that her concerns had come off that look, but at the same time her doubts boiled down. But you're more welcome than that.

"And welcome, Master Sylvester"

"Sorry, all of a sudden"

"No, I don't mind... I can tell from your appearance that you're in the city at work?

It's hard to think I'm going back to work because I don't dress like a patient, and I don't see any servants around me.

Vester laughed knowing to Cordelia, who tilted his neck.

"I came to see your face... what can I say?

"... no, but I don't think that's the reason why you looked sorry the first time"

Sylvester shrugged her shoulders gently as Cordelia responded calmly as she tried not to be drunk by Sylvester's grinning condition. Apparently it was a joke instead of a greeting. Cordelia shrugged her shoulders too, but Sylvester didn't say jokes or anything.

"It's true. After work, I stopped by and asked my squire to leave first. You can come if you want to see the crowd, because I remembered my father always told me that he was going home, and I said," My servants are really going home. "

Cordelia, who was told that, desperately enjoyed about to swallow it back. I even feel the beating sound of my heart heavily in my ears, but still managed to stay in a situation where only my expression floated a joke all the time in order not to be made fun of by the servants looking at this situation later. Yes, you have to act like it's just a joke. Even if Sylvester seldom tells jokes.

"Aside from the history, do you have time for tea?

"Right, just one drink lightly"

Cordelia asks Lara to send her gaze and prepare herself to take Sylvester to her room.

And it was on its way to the guest room.

"Dili, it's tomorrow, do you have time?

Cordelia, who walked forward to the word, stopped and looked back.

"Maybe, are you patient?

If you enter the room, the servant will come soon enough to prepare for the hospitality. You say it before then, so it's not a good story for people to ask. Then there was only one reason I could think of.

"It's been a long time since I've strolled the city."

"Yeah... well, I'm going to the store tomorrow, so I can come with you after that."

As a matter of fact, Cordelia has no reason to really have to go to the store tomorrow. But if Sylvester is impatient, Cordelia shouldn't say, "I'm going out with His Highness," either. Cordelia was relieved that there was just a convenient excuse.

(I'm going with Lara to the store, so after that, should I have her deluded until the evening? And then ask Ronnie for convenience as well)

Cordelia understands that it sounds like a date but it's not. Because the way Sylvester looks when he strolls through the city is always Jill, and it can be a strange gossip when Cordelia, the 'fiancée of His Highness Sylvester', walks for two.

So if we were to take a stroll around the city together, Cordelia wouldn't change Ronnie's old style of 'seeing Vernault and his friends' as an escort. Tomorrow there will probably also be Vernault...... rather than hanging out with Vernault, it is an invitation to Cordelia to come too, and it is hard to say it is a date.

Cordelia would also like to try dating around the city, which is why it's hard for Sylvester to stroll around the city as he is. It is also likely that if you change your clothes and hair, you will not be noticed by the perception that you cannot be in a place like this, but many of the people of the Wang Capital are looking at Sylvester's face at festivals and such. So I can't help but think of it as a precaution, and my face is going to get hot just thinking about walking publicly saying I'm on a date, even if there's no confusion or incident because of what I was noticed in the first place.

Cordelia's not going to hide what she thinks of each other either, but that's it, this is it, and embarrassing stuff is embarrassing. I don't care if this isn't particularly noticeable, but I know that a lot of rumors about me and Vester spread exaggerated and slightly noticed as spectacular love romance. But the rumor is that Sylvester says, "I don't know about Dilly's ideas, but I don't care because I'm pretty much the same."

(Let's not, there's no way we're going to go to the city alone looking like Mr. Sylvester, so let's not think about it......!

An escort could also fly right in before the average person notices if you have any patience with Sylvester in the first place. So it can never be.

Cordelia told herself so and calmed her mind.

Unless you're in the city, you've been out with me in the shape of Sylvester. Mostly castles or mansions when we meet, but sometimes we take a long ride and enjoy the view. At that time, the escort was following me even as I opened up enough distance not to hear the story. At first, I was nervous, but I got used to it a lot while I was on it several times. Thankfully, the escort doesn't see this one any more than he needs to, and he's also figuring out that he mainly feels the signs. Besides, "they say they have quite an elite selection because having people's eyes makes it difficult for them to dislike their dates and get broken up," she decided to try not to worry about it in a way if Clarice, the female knight, told me.

(But I haven't seen Jill in a long time. Just looking forward to it)

Even if you understand it's provisional, the familiar figure is also part of Sylvester for Cordelia. Still, now that Sylvester no longer needs to hide his identity against Cordelia, there's no point in using it against Cordelia, and abusing his provisional appearance is something to avoid in the first place so he doesn't know who he is, so he doesn't get a chance to see it. So this is a very valuable opportunity.

But yes, I let Cordelia play her mind a little. Vester said something she didn't expect.

"I'm not even going to tell Vernault about tomorrow's outing, so I'll do my best to disguise myself."

"Huh? Aren't you looking like Jill tomorrow?

I can only assume that if I don't tell Vernault, but still Cordelia was surprised by the unexpected, tilting her neck and listening back unexpectedly.

But Sylvester answered lightly, as if it were natural.

"'Cause I'm gonna keep borrowing Vernault's hand every date, too, you know? That's why I need to practice my patience while I can. Besides, I tried dating in the city. So why don't you come and disguise yourself?"

"Nah..."

Cordelia screamed unexpectedly at the words, just as a knock sounded in the room.

That was Lara who brought tea, so I could have gone on with this story more than asking for help tomorrow, but what Cordelia would be too bad at once to cut the interrupted story off again.

(Neither do I... I'm ashamed to say even in front of Jill, but when it comes to being in front of Lara, it's still a bit impossible for me...!

Even if we keep talking about it and it's a date consultation for tomorrow, it's also embarrassing for Lara to ask me all about it. I know that if you say that to Lara the most, she will say, 'The engagement is over, but it will be too much.'

(If I may be more prestigious, I can also talk to Lara a lot...)

But all in all, I'm still not good at telling people these stories. It's going to get a lot worse. Yeah, it's really troublesome because it fuels extra embarrassment. Still, if it's just the gist, I can tell you now. Yeah, Cordelia wants to think it's growing. And fortunately Lara knows about it, so she doesn't get too deep into it.

It's just that I've never been told to be too much of a child.

(No, that's not what matters right now))

However, Cordelia made a strong decision on her mind to do her utmost to disguise in order to have fun, and she just got ready.

The next day Cordelia headed to Cordelia Fragrance with her luggage for the disguise.

The store was as thriving as ever, relieved to see what seemed like a pleasant guest, but only today, when nervous, was that a moment too.

(Disguise, can it work?)

Even though Lara will work with us, today's challenges are quite challenging. Clothes are fine because they have city daughter style stuff, but the problem is the characteristic hair and eye color. I know it's hard to be noticed when you just dress like a city girl, but in case you think about it... it also helps.

(If I had a color contact lens, that would have been a lot different)

But unfortunately that doesn't exist in this world. Still, he decided that the eyes were harder to understand at first glance than the hair, and Cordelia prepared Dade glasses. I just don't normally wear glasses, and this only slightly changes my face impression.

As for the hair, a tea and red shade wig was prepared and put together in a cygnon. It was particularly convenient for a cordelia where the colour of the outgoing eye floated when it was a calm colour, a colour that was not particularly unusual in this country.

Lara, who was helping, looked and nodded satisfactorily at Cordelia making a confirmation in front of the ready mirror.

"This would be perfect. Ladies can focus on dating."

"Ah...... thanks"

Cordelia was relieved for a moment, as she questioned whether the date was something to focus on fulfilling.

"Pick a place where the road to the rendezvous is crowded. Then this time the lady is on her way alone, so if you have any trouble, call people as soon as possible. Promise."

"It's okay because it's not a child's use."

"That's true, but trouble seems to love the lady"

"I don't think that's something I can control..."

"Well, I know the lady didn't unnecessarily stick her neck in from herself. But even if you can't leave the wrapped phrase alone, at least call the people."

"Yeah. And don't worry. I can't keep His Highness waiting, I'm heading straight for you."

Lara opened the door at the back door when she heard Cordelia's reply, although it was likely she still had something to say.

"I don't need a souvenir today, so have fun"

"Thanks. Well, I'll be there."

And Cordelia, who left the store, headed straight to the rendezvous point, as she told Lara.

Cordelia arrived at the rendezvous point only a little earlier than planned. There are plenty of people in the square where the boulevards intersect, and there are plenty of people meeting around the landmark fountain.

Since some of the benches were already filled with people, Cordelia decided to look around at the unobstructed end of the road. And listening to the public talk of the passers-by going out, I was somewhat anxious to be able to fulfill and find Sylvester.

(Jill doesn't know what I'm dressed for, and I don't know what kind of disguise Jill is wearing, do I?)

Cordelia thought it would have been nice to have just asked what hair color it would at least be, but still didn't create a rush. Because I am anxious, but I also think I might somehow find out by the method. Even Sylvester and Jill look different in the first place, and their behavior and personality have not changed. So as long as it's in your eyes, you'll find out.

(Although it took me eight years to realize that, which is a bit strange)

I looked around thinking it was something I hadn't really noticed, and Cordelia remembered when she first visited Fulvia's house.

Jill spoke to Cordelia first then, but could we find her first this time?

When I thought so and looked around, Cordelia felt like she had eyes for eyes with a brown beige hairy young man.

blinking each other, and Cordelia moved her mouth without speaking.

Then his opponent narrowed his eyes and smiled, approaching Cordelia.

"Sorry, did I make you wait?

"No, not at all. Good morning, Jill."

"If you say so, maybe Dili."

"No, because I've really just come"

"It's the same here."

We repeated the same claims against each other and eventually blew them out at the same time.

"Which means you feel comfortable."

"That's wonderful."

Cordelia thinks Sylvester was actually arriving earlier, but this is not expected to give way to each other. But that's not so important, and if the time of arrival is the same, I just feel somewhat happy that the feeling of time is the same.

"Which way are you headed today?

"I'd like to buy some fried confectionery for a while too, but if I eat it now, I might affect you a little bit at lunch, so why don't you go to the teacher first?

"Sir...?

"Yeah, Dr. Witch"

I didn't tell Sylvester that Fulvia was my grandmother, or any other day. Whatever it was when Jill appeared, Cordelia was surprised that the name came out of nowhere now. But Sylvester remained smiling and grinning.

"Exactly. I can't greet you as Jill. Still, I was wondering if Sylvester might want to say hello if Dilly wanted to keep her company. Dili's inviting her teacher to the mansion, isn't she? Then you may come to the castle in the future."

Cordelia's eyes remain round to the unexpected suggestion, but if all of a sudden Sylvester came to her home to greet her, Fulvia would surely be more surprised than Cordelia.

Cordelia is also talking to Fulvia about her engagement, and she's getting some words to celebrate. Even without it, if Wang Du were in the country instead, the rumors would be in my ear. It's a situation, so there's no way I don't know.

But even though I know it, I'm still not talking about Sylvester visiting.

"The teacher may not be here either...?

"I will greet you then at another time. Besides, if I contact you first, you'll be worried about your teacher."

If I did know about Sylvester's visit, I would be prepared to entertain him no matter how unnecessary he might say, and it would be a burden in the mood. Apparently Sylvester was also a decision based on caring about it.

(Even with that consideration, I still find it disturbing that as a grandson I would suddenly bring His Highness...)

But without a suggestion from Sylvester, it would be hard to have the opportunity to introduce Sylvester directly to Fulvia, etc. It is also illuminating to introduce my fiancée, but this is an opportunity.

"Now, if you'll excuse me."

"Oh, but before that,"

"What's going on?

"Souvenirs, what shall I do? If it's your first time, you should take it with you."

To Jill, who said so with a serious face, Cordelia blew out, shortly after she had eaten.

"If you do that, you may find it painful that your teacher is not ready for hospitality."

"But don't be discouraged."

"If you really want to say so, how about a light tea treat"

"Well, if anything happens on the street, I'll buy it."

The two walked out with the words. I am well aware of the road from here to the house of Fulvia, and in the meantime there are several confectionery shops.

And first, Sylvester stopped when he tried to get into the sweet shop that was the nicest from the square.

"By the way, Dili, can I have one thing?"

"What's going on?

"You may have forgotten, but" Dear "is on it. I don't wear it when Jill is around. It will be more familiar."

That's what they also said the first time I went to Fulvia's house. The suggestion then seems to still be valid, and it has been pointed out that way even during a walk with Vernor and Ronnie. So Cordelia also tried not to call me names as much as she could, but even when I was disguised as usual, it was the voice of Sylvester, so it became like nature.

"I knew you didn't like to call me that?

"No, I'm still just not used to saying no...... more than that, I remember a lot of the old days"

Speaking of embarrassment, Sylvester laughed bitterly.

"I'd like both names to be called enough to pull out Dear Sir at any given time... but it's a coincidence. I remember that too."

"It was just then that I went to see my teacher."

"Oh. Dili didn't quite call me then, and I don't think I've heard it lately...... how about today?

Yes, I was turned to the eye of anticipation, and Cordelia smiled back.

"Jill, let's go"

Assuming it's being tried, it should turn out to be less embarrassing than shy. However, Cordelia thought that "Dear" was not going to come out very well in the future. After all, the embarrassment doesn't fit this way either.

Besides, Jill doesn't seem to think so, but for Cordelia, it's more of a special way to call him 'Jill' than 'Jill'.

If not in public at all, Vernault calls Sylvester Jill. But only Cordelia calls Jill Master Jill. That's why sometimes I call you Lady Jill, not Sylvester as much as possible without eyes. Sylvester doesn't seem to notice that most of the time.

"After all, it's kind of ticklish, but I'm glad"

Seeing the look on Sylvester's face that said that makes me wonder if Cordelia might even try her best to call it once in a while. But after all, it is conditional on 'occasional'. Because of Cordelia, I also have a strong desire to stay special.

However, as of today, I intend to live up to my hopes with much more embarrassment.

"... but I still can't call you Jill if you're in front of the teacher"

If Sylvester is going to greet you with patience, you should still call him in Sylvester. Sylvester laughed loosely, wishing she had no guests.

"I don't mind."

"Huh? But"

"I can't tell you from my mouth because it's not something to say, but I think you shouldn't have to hide it. I know you'd be surprised, but a teacher might help me catch my breath. You think Dili should stop?

Cordelia, who was asked, was a little lost, but shook her neck to the side.

If Sylvester doesn't mind, there's rather no reason to deny it. I knew you respected me, but it was nothing more than a great pleasure for Cordelia that Fulvia was so trusted.

"But if you're going to be like that, you have to be more careful about choosing sweets. If you meet someone for the first time, you don't know, but someone who knows the teacher chooses you."

"Then you'll be fine. Because Dili can help."

"Yes, of course."

Cordelia was, of course, going to help, even with her name as Jill down. But now I was more in the mood.

And then with the souvenirs. The two visited Fulvia's house, but the Cordelias were surprised by Fulvia before it surprised Fulvia.

"Welcome... oh? You're both dressed rarely today."

The moment I opened the door and used the greeting, but if I was spotted without saying a word, I could only be surprised at Cordelia and Jill alike. Fulvia didn't seem to notice when she said, "Welcome," too, but after a beat, she laughed small.

"Doctor, how did you know...?

"Oh, because not many people come here for the first time. Even if you're dressed differently, the atmosphere will tell you somehow."

Fulvia, smiling, continued her words as if she enjoyed seeing through the prank.

"But Jill, you don't have the same color as usual, do you? How are you doing?

I'm supposed to cut it off here, but how do I introduce myself? Cordelia watched nervously over Sylvester and Fulvia looking seriously into her eyes.

And Jill opened her mouth with a bitter smile.

"Witch Hall, nice to meet you. My name is Sylvester. Since we are now welcoming Cordelia as a companion, we have also come to greet the teacher who is guiding us."

Fulvia, hearing about it, was grinning. But Cordelia also found that it was not a blessing.

"Yes?"

That short word was revealing everything.

The point is that thoughts are short, that I don't understand the meaning of words.

It's a certainty for Fulvia that the youth in front of her is Jill, but she wouldn't dream of it being Sylvester or anything like that. In fact, I couldn't even realize that Cordelia had been with me longer than Fulvia.

And until Fulvia opened her mouth again, which remained stiff, and until that confusion subsided, it took a corresponding amount of time.

Although Fulvia had been frightened, however, the hardness gradually eased because of the long period of time she had treated her as Jill and the fact that she was fully aware of her character, and by the time herbal tea was behaved, she was a lot back to normal.

Of course, it still didn't loose its solidity.

And on his return, Fulvia called Cordelia behind the store because he would give him souvenirs, and he looked emotional.

"Actually, when I first heard about Dilly's engagement, I was very surprised. 'Cause it wasn't the name of either of your best friends."

"Um... was that what it looked like from the teacher?

"I didn't think it was a romantic relationship, but we felt so much trust in each other that I thought it wouldn't be surprising as we grew up. Nice edge."

Cordelia grinned bitterly that she was going to be laughed at with her nose if she told Vernault that she was surprised, but agreed about the second half. The important edges are connected to the present and I want to continue to take care of many edges.

"But it's true that the edges call the edges. Jill and Verno tied my edge with Dili, so..."

I guess the rest of this is a reunion with Elvis.

So Fulvia, who stopped her mouth, took some things out of the crate and gave them to Cordelia.

"Jill's favorite pickle arrived from the village of Oulu. I'm sure I'll see His Highness Sylvester in his mouth."

Fulvia, who deliberately named them as if they were someone else, probably tells me she will continue to pretend she doesn't know them the same way she did before. I'm not more worried about it than I was originally, but Cordelia also grinned back at the daring proclamation.

"Thank you for your concern"

"Dili has some good herbs, so please take them home and use them for cooking. Because this is light."

Cordelia took care of the paper bag she was given.

Then he went back to the store and Cordelia and Sylvester left the store so deeply graced that Fulvia was afraid.

"Also, hey anytime"

Cordelia thanked Sylvester for coming to say hello, although there are still times when the air hardens.
