In My Previous Life I Was a Saint, but Now I Want to Cut Corners

A housemaid employed in the dorm came there with a letter addressed to Lenalia.Some housemaids are taking care of the dorm chores because nobles like Lenalia can't bring their own maids.

Many are the daughters of houses living in school cities, and for their daughters it is a long-awaited profession to remember the manners of nobility.They are only in charge of the dormitory, where the house butler works.

Anna, who received the letter, first checks the letter for poison.It has been checked when it arrives in the dorm, but it is a big enemy to be alarmed.It's too late for anything, so Anna and Klaus are always on the lookout.

The letter is passed on in a silver tray.Anna put each tray in a square box next to the entrance.Green magic stones are buried in the middle of a dull silver box, which glows when poisoned.

Anna checked that the magic stone didn't shine, and then gave Lenalia a letter.

"... from Cecil.This is oniisama. "

There were two letters, but both had the same content.I invited you to dinner today.

Basically, nobles and civilians are supposed to eat in the same cafeteria, but higher-ranking nobles are allowed to have a kitchen in their room and eat in the room to prevent poisoning.

Furthermore, apart from the kitchen in his room, the royal family was given a private room with a kitchen on the second floor of the cafeteria, which was large enough for a little tea party.

Lenalia was also invited to visit Cecil, the Second Prince, a special class classmate, once.

However, since Prince Leonardo was rude at that time, he has never responded to the invitation to eat.

No matter what my brother Arthur says.

"Are you inviting me to dinner again?

"Yes, I will definitely not invite His Royal Highness the Prince, so let's eat together."

Last time, Lenalia was a little tough on Leonardo.

So I'm glad Leonardo isn't here, but it would be more fun to have dinner with my brother.

Recently, Cecil was no longer confused with Prince Marius, who had been his fiancée in his previous life, but still seeing the same face made him feel complicated.

I'm sure you won't get used to it forever.

"I don't think you should say no more...I don't want to go. "

Anna doesn't have a word to say to Lenalia, who drops her shoulders.

In my heart, I thought, "I will not forgive the royal family for putting a lot of effort into my lovely lady," but what I said was another word.

"What did Arthur say?

Five years older than Lenalia, Arthur has adored her lovely sister with her parents.Suddenly after the baptism ceremony, I feel lonely with my sister, who has grown up to understand better, and I always say that I wish she could be more selfish.

"I can't stand the loneliness because I haven't seen my face for a long time.Oniisama must be joking. "

Lenalia laughs, but Anna thinks it's not a joke, but the truth of Arthur's story.

Arthur had little opportunity to face Lenalia because he thought he could stay with her all the time, and because he had different grades, he couldn't see her very well, and because he only ate dinner in his room.

"If you don't want to go, you should go."

Phil leaned strangely with a piece of cookie on his cheek.

Lenalia took the kakella with a bitter smile.

"I see. But I might want to see oniisama."

Lenalia loves Arthur, too.Even siblings are prohibited from entering dormitory rooms of the opposite sex.When we eat together, we have to rent a corner of the cafeteria, but dining in the crowd is quite expensive.

I can't eat, but would you like a cup of tea?

"How would you respond?

"I'll write you a letter.Can you get it ready?

"I understand."

Just my brother can leave a message, but I have to write Prince Cecil a reply.

Lenalia writes a letter with a magnificent pen of helix craftsmanship when she receives a pale rose note with a watermark of the Sheridan family crest.

After writing the letter, Lenalia stared at the pen in her hand.

"What's wrong, Lenalia?"

Phil, who noticed the situation, flew over and looked at Lenalia.

Is Chum satisfied with honey tea and cookies, or is he sleeping with his pungent stomach up?

I heard a happy sleep.

"This pen is so heavy, I'm tired of writing letters, but I thought it might be lighter."

Certainly, the pen I got from Lenalia, who is still ten years old, is too big.

There is also a magic stone on the tip of the pen, and a magic team is engraved to adjust the built-in ink to reach the tip of the pen in an appropriate amount, but it is about the size of a pinky finger and heavy.

The smaller the magic stone, the lighter it will be, the less magic it will have and the magic team will not be activated.

It is said that magic circles can only be engraved on magic stones, but instead of ordinary trees, for example, it is better to make a pen using Eldertrent's branches, even if it doesn't have to go to Evil Trent...

Like a magic wand, the shaft is made of metal and inked, and the Eldertrent branch is used to carve a magic formation into it.

That must make it quite light.

"Hey, Phil. Shall I carve a magical formation into the branches of Eldertrent?

"I'll carve it up, but it won't activate because it doesn't accumulate magic like Magic Stones."

There are two types of Magic Stones: those that occur naturally in places where the magic elements are thick, and those that are generated in the body of a monster.

I don't know which is better, but there are many small magic stones that occur naturally.But for that, it's cheap.

"At this size, it's a magic stone from a monster.... why don't you bury a few small magic stones in some Eldertrent branches and carve a magic crest across them? "

If it were Eldertrent's branch, it would have been left in the woods at the time of the massive outbreak.Fallen Eldertorrents are often used in thick areas of the torso, but small branches are a nutrient for the forest, so leave them there.

"That sounds interesting! I'll help you make it."

Yeah, that sounds fun.

Next to Lenalia and Phil laughing each other, Chum sighed happily.
