Shut-in Magician

104 Last day of the Festival

On the fifth and final day of the festival, Akiera was supposed to come and visit.

I hear we got along yesterday. Her classmates seem to be with us, and Martina as well as Alice have been very uptight since the morning.

Eventually the cafe got noisy when Carl and Christoph, who were waiting at the gate, escorted the girls.

With all due respect, Akiera and the others take their seats for careers and fun.

Siu also looked at him and said a word or two to Akiera, but Martina immediately took him into the back.

"Please treat me with the best!

"Yes, sir"

Don't play with it. Work with it, apparently.

Subsequently, a large quantity of dessert was transported by the cane and Martina, who had taken the order.

I heard cheers from the table, so I guess, I was delighted.

Siu also went around with Akiera in the morning, but Alice and I seemed to have broken it down completely already, and her friends seemed to be doing well, so we were allowed to act differently around noon.

I hurried back to the class of the year, but Karina didn't seem to be here yet. Eat fast in the back of the kitchen trying to finish lunch first.

Eventually, as I was beginning to plant the afternoon, Beatrice came to get Siu.

"I can see Master Karina."

"Ah, I'll be right there. Thanks."

"... it's okay. Well, may I help you inside, too?"

"Are you sure?

"If there's anything I can do,"

I say things like I pushed them away, but my eyes are red, so I guess it's lit up.

Siu smiled,

"Please. You know, can you tell me what Viktor's doing? Mr. Beatrice can do it. You're good at calculating, aren't you? I'll take care of it."

That's what I said, took off the front hook, and went out into the hall.

I confirmed that Beatrice had snorted silently and many times, but then she turned red on her face and wasn't aware of it until she was working hard.

Karina came with friends and was just getting to her seat when she was guided by a classmate dressed as a butler.

When Siu rushed over, he stood up and tried to say hello, so he stopped with his hands as he was.

"Hello. Welcome. Thank you for coming."

"Very nice cafe, and I'm glad I'm invited too."

Though young, classmates in deacons blushed at Karina, who spoke calmly like a lady.

And that's where Argheo came in. Dressed close to formal attire. He's a "supervisor" once, so he seems to be my husband. I was wearing it with an ex-post consent that I wouldn't even consult "wouldn't this be a good idea" on my own.

"Siu, entertain your guests. Mirka, I'll get you a seat at Sioux's."

"Oh, yes!

"Pietari and Severi are like listening to your ladies' orders"

That said, he went back to his predetermined position again.

Just the right place to give this and instructions, that is, at the end.

Biting the bitter smile to death, Mirka brought me a chair.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Thanks."

"Fine. Master Argio's gonna be hanging out."

Footwork is light for the Baron's children, and he's a boy who treats ordinary people like Siu. There's really something called a faction, and it's in the Algheos, but I've never said anything disgusting like his surroundings.

"I guess the order should be a little later. That's what I'll tell the Pietaris."

"Yeah. I'll call you back."

He spoke in a low voice and met Karina face-to-face when he got to his seat.

My friends have already looked at the menu table and are making a scene with this.

"Do you have any recommendations?

I was asked,

"I recommend them all. But it's popular with early peach tart ice cream and fluffy bread cheese and honey hanging, right?"

"Well! It looks delicious..."

"Honey is taken from a giant bear bee. The cheese is fresh and delicious."

The girls make a scene with Ka.

Around here, neither the common people nor the noble children are the same as women.

Although Karina was the only one sitting in Rin.

By the time each of them had finished eating dessert, Karina had taught me the upside of things.

"Edgar hits my cousin, but he's on the sidelines. You were mistaken a little bit because you are allowed to name your family by the side."

That's what you said.

"Besides, has it been around since last year? My grandfather wanted me to marry him, and I was in trouble."

"Are you married?"

But since Karina is the fifth child, she should not succeed to the title if she marries her, but it seems to be in her face that the servant woman told me.

"Lady Karina is the only child of a woman, and that's already adorable from her husband, so you all know that she will be given some titles."

"Oh, you know what?"

"Edgar's father is also a Viscount with the title, but Edgar himself is a third child, so he won't inherit. So, when I was growing up, he asked me to marry him."

"That's not what I asked for. It's a treat! It can't be!"

"Stop."

Softly embarrassed, Karina continued.

"I am also a daughter of nobility, so I intend to accept that it is my duty to marry someone my father has decided, but if I can, I want to work as a court magician. I told my father about it, so he was supposed to marry my lord, who accepted the circumstances."

That means.

"Even if that's Edgar, there's no choice if he's ordered. We just had to accept it."

"I disagreed. I was going to sue my husband directly."

"Oh, my God."

"Because that one. Not only to me, but also to others with an unpleasant look... If you're inferior in character like that, you don't deserve a lady."

"That's right, that Edgar guy, I couldn't help but think of him as a relative of Uncle Saluel's, but the eyes that look at the female students, oh, horrible..."

Looks like I remembered, my friends were shaking all the time.

He seemed like a sexually harassing man at all.

"... he was a bad rumor, and above all, he told me, 'You're going to be my wife, so you wait at home with Jeong-sook, other than the court magician'... and I was very uncomfortable"

"Was it? Um, did you tell your father about that?

"Because Father didn't seem so serious about moving forward either. Sometimes it's hard to tell. And it's not good for me, my daughter, to pinch my mouth when my father decides."

"... nobility is a big deal"

I accidentally said it, and I hurriedly held my mouth by my hand.

"Maah."

Karina and her friends allowed it with a bitter smile.

"... from you guys, come on. That must be hilarious. Sometimes I want freedom, too."

I say with a distant eye.

"… but there is something I have enjoyed so far as a daughter of nobility. That involves duties and responsibilities. I think I have to do my job."

But at least, keep whispering.

"I want to be a court magician and work for my country. That was my last hope."

"Your father will forgive you, won't he?

"... I don't know. Though you adore me, as a nobleman, you will be pawned flat. I don't even know if I can be a magician..."

I pity you.

However, there are moments when a person can take off from the gooseberry state at any time.

Unless it's an irresistible body.

Unless you're a slave, for example, or a king.

And she chose it for herself, by the balance.

If you really don't like it, you can take it off, but you don't choose that because you want to be spoiled for that position.

I adorn it with the word fulfill my duty.

When will she realize that nothing needs to remain aristocratic if she wants to restore what was born as a nobleman and has been prepared for that life?

Siu nodded obscurely and looked around.

Nobody seems to question it, "Poor thing," he says with his mouth.

But I don't know.

Premature girls are still some aristocracy, a race that can be considered for damages.

Now that I'm used to living there, I wouldn't want to lower my standard of living. So I get intrigued by rumors about where noble youth there are good for marriage, etc.

"Dear Karina, I'm sure you'll meet someone wonderful."

"Even so. My husband will also be removed from his candidacy for this one, and it has been a good start. Besides, you must have gotten to know Mr. Edvard, right? My husband would be delighted."

Right, Karina nodded and smiled.

In other words, they are tenacious. Clearer than Siu imagines.
