In fact, I've been looking for contact with the Crown for some time now. However, it was hard to find a good way because he was a commoner without connections.

That's why we took down the Duke of Bahamut on bypass. It was always a shame that there was no royal rope, even though there was some luck there.

Then I met Princess Ofelia. It was a pleasure to meet her.

I was hoping we could make a connection when we went back and forth to the Academy, but then the princess showed up.

I need to be noticed somehow.

The wooden case in my chest felt more secure than ever. I keep a ballpoint pen in my case just in case. A qualified person could show up at any time.

The supply of materials was disrupted in the production, but luckily Spinel made a lot of them before it happened, and about 20 were piled up at the headquarters. I brought about five of them.

The fountain pen has been instructed to be sent to the Royal Road as soon as it can be used as an additional material supply or when it can be made again.

The ballpoint pen will be comfortable and curious, but I can't keep up with the fancy note of the fountain pen.

I have the utmost respect for Ofelia.

“Greetings, noble princess. My name is Dylan. He's the head of the Medici household and the head of the Adeline household. ”

“Greetings, Lord Dylan! Heheheh heh.”

I felt a free and energetic voice.

She also respected the person who usually had a title, but she comfortably said to him,

It's not really offensive, but it's a way to get a glimpse of your personality.

Cheerful and lively princess.

She looked like her, but she was attractive.

“You're the one who came to hear it, right? My Ella was so proud! She just saved me when she was in danger! Cool.I wish I had a butler like this. ”

Surprised, I looked at the soul. She blushes her face and looks away.

Surprisingly?

I received the word of the princess with a smile.

“I did what I had to do, just a little skill. It's not a big deal. ”

“Still, I hear the Adeline Knights were impressed. Adeline knights are famous for their strength, right? ”

Strong? I didn't feel that way.

However, even the Baryan Master is very strong and respected. It was trouble down there, like Roland and Laurentz. Even an apprentice knight is quite high level, just by looking at Arthur.

I didn't think Sapiella would say that, but fortunately, I think the image of the princess about me is good.

I thought I'd have a little more conversation. I need to find a time to give the ballpoint pen in my arms as a gift.

“But are you close with my lady? I don't think I've ever heard you say you're a friend before today. ”

“Oh, it's nothing like that! We just met. We met here in the academy special course. But it looks a little lonely, so I'm taking special care of him. I'm just the same age. ”

“I see.”

“Ella's a hands-on type. You have to take good care of her. ”

Sapiella flinches, but Ophelia laughs and can't resist. Surprisingly, there is a metaphor for this character.

Anyway, if she's the same age, she'll be 17. That's how old Sapiella is.

In a way, it doesn't look like a good combination. A cold, cold Sapiella and a lively, cheerful princess. It's like water and oil.

But if you call it an infatuation, it means you're getting very close in the short term.

“Please take good care of my lady. ”

“Yes. I think we'll see each other often. Let's say hello. ”

“It's an honor. Oh, dear. Perfect timing.”

I took the box out of my arms naturally. And I opened the case. I respectfully reached out to the princess with both hands.

“If you don't mind, could you accept this gift? ”

“What is this? ”

The princess opens her big eyes and grabs a ballpoint pen.

“It's called a ballpoint pen. It's convenient to write without inking. ”

“Wow, really? ”

The excited princess scratches a ball pen on the piece of paper next to her. But nothing was written.

“You should write on the other side, not on that side. ”

“Aha.”

I corrected her position again, and she straightened the pen and drew a line. A clear line was drawn on the paper and the princess was surprised.

“Amazing!”

“This is a new product from a company run by a distant relative. I had some spare time, and it's a gift for you to study hard and to ask my lady nicely. I hope you liked it.”

“What company? ”

“A startup company called Mathis. I'm considering making a lot of office supplies in the future, so I'll be sure to let you know if I need anything from you. ”

“Oh, I'm interested in that. Will you take good care of her? ”

“It's an honor. ”

Good. I feel like I've won a big delivery business. If you asked the name of the company, she'd be interested in that too.

“Anyway, I'll take good care of it. Ella's a handful. ”

“Thank you."

I gave Sapiella a good excuse to be jealous, but I emphasized that she has a lot of hands, so she blushes without being jealous.

Interesting combination. I should come to the Academy more often.

“Well, listen to your class, and I'll be waiting outside. ”

“Yes."

I greeted the girls and left the classroom. The bait isn't quite satisfactory, but I hope Princess Ofelia asks nicely.

* * *

The lecture ended about three hours later. The middle of the calibration bell rang, and the classroom door opened and the students inside began to come out.

Among them were Sapiella and Ofelia. I waited at the door, gracefully approaching and greeting them.

“Did you finish your lesson well? ”

“Weren't you bored waiting? It's been a long day in class! The professor's favorite topic came out. ”

Ofelia asked, and Sapiella looked at me with such nuance. I bowed my head with a smile.

“I looked around the calibration without boredom. I went to the library, and there were so many wonderful books. The next thing I know, I'm going to read a book there. ”

“You like Sir Dylan's books, don't you? ”

“Yes, I prefer to read. ”

That's when Sapiella helped me.

“He's also my homeroom teacher. ”

“Really? Isn't that clever? ”

“Clever, Lord Dylan. It solves even the most difficult mathematical problems. ”

“Wow! Nice math guy!”

The princess clapped her hands and gave me her eyes. Maybe it's because the princess keeps showing me affection. Sapiella grabbed my arm and grabbed it just right.

“Let's go. You're tired.”

“Yes, I'll take you right away. Princess, I'll be going now. I hope to see you again next time. ”

“Be careful! ”

After I put her in the wagon, I went up with her. Soon the wagon moved. We haven't said anything for a while.

Then suddenly, the spiritual child asked me first.

“Ophelia, isn't she beautiful? ”

“You look absolutely beautiful. ”

I honestly observed Sapiella's face. You don't look so good. Maybe he's jealous.

I didn't even know I had a smile on my mouth.

“But there was also no one to follow your beauty. Of all those students, you were the brightest. Like a floating North Star in the night sky. ”

“…… Are you serious? ”

“How could I lie to you? ”

Then Sapiella's expression cleared.

When we arrived at the mansion, we enjoyed tea time as promised. Unlike the past in which other people's gazes were overwhelming, it is now a person who is confidently able to enjoy love and tea.

The young child was bitten by all the maids, including Arwen.

“About giving Ophelia a ballpoint pen. ”

“Yes.”

“Isn't there another reason? ”

“May I ask why you think so? ”

“Ballpoint pens are rare. Carrying that kind of thing around, and seeing it as a natural gift, it kind of gave me a sense of camouflage. ”

There is also a sharp side. I have a talent for critically looking at the phenomenon, but I think I'll do well if I try something like experimenting later.

“You saw it right. To be honest, I'm helping Mathis out a little bit. ”

“What exactly are you helping out with? ”

“It's no big deal. It's just to get the word out about the new product. Apparently it's a relative thing. ”

She takes the cup of tea to her mouth and drinks a cup of tea. Then he took the teacup out of his mouth and placed it on the pedestal.

At that instant, I felt like I had made up my mind.

“Wouldn't it be nice to give a gift to someone a little taller? ”

“I'd love to, but, you know, I was a civilian, and I have a petty position, so there's no strings on it. ”

“If you don't have a rope, that's fine. ”

“It's not as easy as it sounds. ”

Then an unexpected word came out.

“I'm going to a party at the Royal Palace soon. It's Ophelia's birthday soon, and I was invited. Why don't you take a few of them and give them to the highest class. If we're lucky, we might get to meet the king. ”

Excellent. But I wish I had a fountain pen instead of a ball pen.

“I was wondering if you could tell me when the party is. ”

“After this week. ”

“I still have time for this week. Thank you for your opportunity. On that day, I will take you with all my heart. ”

Sapiella nods and raises her cup.

I have more work to do. First thing we do is blow up a whole book on Mathis. If you have any finished goods, I suggest you send them to the royal palace immediately.

After that night came and I went out for a while when she went to bed, I stopped by the Jeonseo-gu Center.

It is open 24 hours a day. I heard there are more messages to send as payment than I expected. In that case, of course, there's night premiums.

The man on the far left recognized me and greeted me.

“Aren't you Soo-hyun of the Mathis Merchant Guild? Do you have anything to send at this late hour? ”

“You remember me. ”

“I'm not proud of it, but I don't forget the look and respect of the guests I've seen. ”

He gives a well-groomed smile.

He must be brought here as well. This kind of talent should not be in this rustic Jeollseo-gu center, but rather in a huge company trying to reach the continent.

Offer is to be put in later, and now you must send a memoir.

“The destination is the Merchant Guild. Please make an initial payment.”

“Please wait. ”

After a while I finished the calculations. Since it was an initial payment, the money came out quite well. But it doesn't matter. It's worth investing in.

I heard a thud as I was leaving the Jeonseo-gu Center. A sleek frontal lobe flaps its wings as you lift your head. It's probably a book heading for Adeline territory.

I preached my heart to Jeonseo-gu, who was rising forcefully towards the sky.

I hope you bring good news.
