“Eww... What a piece of shit I am...”
Kante has turned a few teeth. I knew he was a bastard who could go wrong at any moment, but this was too much.
“... Then what should I do..”
“I can't help it. I just need you to stay as long as you can. The damn politicians are talking about family customs like they have a problem, but we can't afford any more trouble. And if we go easy on them, maybe the politicians will shut up a little bit. ”
‘Politics’.
It's the only place he's officially stepped foot now that he's given up his post, but Cante sighs to see if their thoughts annoy him.
“Phew... Let's build a relationship with the great nobles. And it won't make a difference if you join the Knights in the first place. ”
It might kill the incompetent Daryl son-in-law who joined the best knights on the continent... but it'll only take a moment... Kante smiled.

Something unexpected has happened in Meredith's territory. It is because of the news of the celebration of the Lord's "Daughter" 's inauguration of "Golden Wolf Knights".
Of course, it was customary for most nobles, except the Duke or the Marquis, to hold a celebration party for their children who had to leave home for three months when their children joined the Knights. However, the family name is the problem.
Meredith. The infamous family threw a party for their ‘daughter’. Residents tilted their heads, but began the stalls and small festivals to tear out the pouches of the soon luxurious consumers, their attendants, and some of the prodigals who came to the party with lights on.
“... Phew. ”
In broad daylight, residents are preparing for the festival. In tuxedos that had never been worn, including life on Earth, Saehan took a deep breath in front of Kurlin's door. In one hand, he holds a huge box.
He knocks on Kurlin's door with one hand, the other hand not holding the box.
“Who are you?”
I hear her voice, full of tension.
“.. it's me. I have something to tell you. W-we bought it today. ”
Sahan emphasized "we" for no reason.
“Wait a minute. Just wait a little longer."
Fluffy - After a faint sound, she opens the door.
Saehan looks at her through the cracks with a slightly dazzling eye.
The festival started around noon right away, but the main character of the festival was so shabby.
“... I'm going in. ”
“.. you opened the door for me. ”
I feel ashamed and say with my eyes open.
A slight smile slowly entered the room. The image in the room remains. I mean, it's so fuzzy.
“Then why are you really here? I still have five hours to get started.”
“Because of this. ”
Zahan handed her an elongated box of wrapped paper in her hand.
“... what is this? ”
She shakes the box in her ear a couple of times and asks.
“Open it. ”
“ … ”
She looked suspicious for a moment as he smiled and spoke. However, he smiles lightly and opens the wrapping paper, slowly opening the box.
“… Ah…”
She breathes out a daze of resilience. Inside the box, there was a rather expensive and beautiful party dress.
Overall, the sky colored dress was pointing towards a dark blue ribbon with a sky lace.
“It's a gift. ‘We’ bought it. It's not that expensive. You can wear it without pressure. ”
He emphasized ‘us’ again for no reason. Besides, I lied. This dress was like 200 gold. So 120 million won.
‘It's expensive, but it's very cheap for me. It's worth it. ’
* * * *
"Blinked blue dress.
A gorgeous dress, perfect for a gorgeous spot. The dresses are exquisitely crafted with a sweat and a special magic touch.
- Increases the charm of the wearer by 1.
* * * *
But given the information in this dress, it was worth it. It was an item that gave me 1 extra glamour. When I saw this item in a high-end clothing store, Sahan was surprised to see its eyes pop out.
And by the way, his account had 60,000 gold stamps because of the papers he had written. So 36 billion.
“Oh, by the way, I... I don't think I can wear this... No, I can't. It's too awkward and uncomfortable. I've never worn one.”
“What are you talking about? So you're just gonna go with what you're wearing? It's a festival.”
“... but I don't want to. ”
Despite her useless stubbornness, she sighs once.
After a moment of deliberation, he came up with a good idea.
“Lord Conjin would be sad if you came dressed like that. And this, I showed it to Lord Konjin first and brought it to you. He liked it. He really wanted to see it. ”
“ … ”
In Sahan's words, she opened her eyes and glanced at him once. And then I sigh. With a light smile on his face like he had no choice.
“All right, I get it. ”
As soon as he heard the answer, he smiled and clapped loudly. Then some of Meredith's maids appear out of nowhere and come into her room.
“Huh? What is it?”
“It's hard to wear it alone. That's why two maids volunteered. Don't worry, he's on your father's side. ”
“.. Yes? Oh, but I think I can wear it on my own... Oh! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! ”
Shahan gladly looks at Cullen's handkerchief for a while, and then... You step outside the door after being attacked by a pillow that flutters between the shouts of Cullen.

“… what's going on here? ”
Late afternoon when the sun sets twenty nights. Even as I look at you, the guard who has already met a nobleman of high rank with untold hands looks at his comrade with a trembling look.
“She's leaving. That's why the Lord's throwing a celebration party. ”
“Well, that's... that's a little weird. I hate to break it to you, but isn't our family a mistress? ”
“No, no. The family may be, but the lord is not. You saw how close she was to you. The Lord didn't care because he was struggling in the family. ”
“... but yes. ”
The guard hesitated for no reason, but he found the returning nobleman's wagon and corrected his loose posture.
“… Hundred million. That symbol...”
The guard opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar family crest.
The symbol of fire.
It is the ‘Blaze’ of the highest rank family I have ever seen.
There is a rumor that the Marquis will soon be promoted to the ‘Marquis' family because of their specialty in the Red Gates. Just looking at it gives me a chill.
While the guards swallowed, the wagon approached the front door, and the wagon gave out an "invitation" and a "Seal of Fire."
“Welcome, not welcome!" ”
The guards let them in without even confirming the invitation.
The two of them stared at Blaze's wagon while slowly running to the front door of the mansion.
When they turn their heads to the sound of the wagon again, they are forced to faint.
* * *
The night sky darkens. The party began in the spacious banquet room of the mansion.
“ … ”
Sahan stood at his feet and watched the scene with slightly embarrassed eyes.
No matter how much I think about it, there are too many people. Serzin invites only his father Eden, and Ian invites only Armada.
And he was only Dermian and Arren, who had somehow been contacted through magical meetings and talks, and had been half jokingly invited to think that he was in a bad mood, but he was also in a bad mood.
Isn't this too much? ’
I don't know why, but there are many nobles who don't know their names, including Dermian, who is attending and talking to other wizards.
“Do you think there are a few people attending? ”
That's when Serjin approaches him. But I'm a little... dressed. She was looking forward to wearing the internal dress, but she was wearing armor. Of course, it's Misrill armor, which is more expensive than anyone else in this place...
“Yes. Why are you here so many times? ”
“Rumor has it my father and Lord Armada were attending. That's why the barons, the earls, and the nobles who didn't receive the invitation asked Lord Konjin to send out the invitations. And Lord Konjin was happy to be full. I even said I'd give you a Tribute, so there was a baroness family asking you to invite them. ”
“… Aha. ”
Sahan nods. So at some point, the nobles became a party with the social chapter attended with political intent.
“But what about your armor? ”
Serzin smiled meaningfully at his question.
“... Hehe. ”
“Hehe? ”
“The main character of this party is Cullen. I don't have to dress up. ”
“Oh, that's why? ”
Serzin smiles silently. Maybe she had a thoughtful mind at the bottom of her outfit. In his mind, he admired himself.
“What about Ian? ”
“There it is. ”
Serzin points his finger somewhere, and Zahan follows it with his eyes. There he is. He's being taken by Armada to greet the nobles.
He puffs his cheeks with a slightly blunt look and is dragged around by Armada like a grumpy cat. However, in contrast to Ian's expression, Armada smiled brightly.
“Looks like he's taking her with him, thanks to Ian for inviting him. I think he came with me when he came. ”
“... I see. ”
I think Ian's a little reluctant.
It was then that the lights of the banquet hall softened and the party grew larger than I expected, and the voice of the host who hired Buryburia resounded loudly.
“Greetings! Stupid and beautiful, all the nobles who participated in the party! ”
Attention is focused on the moderator. Though it may be burdensome, the moderator continued to speak with a gentle smile.
“In the middle of a great party, the main character of the party. The Golden Wolf Knights, they're the youngest of them all! Meredith's proud only daughter and eldest daughter. Sir Cullen de Meredith is here now! ”
As the host encourages applause, the banquet hall is filled with applause. Subsequently, the lights of the banquet hall become dimmer, and only the lamp at the entrance of the curlin illuminates.
The sound of the strings echoes, and the door slowly opens, with everyone's attention at last.
The moment that door opens. The moment the protagonist of the shy party shows up. A deep, heavy silence sank down in the ballroom.
“ … ”
Sahan stares at the party's protagonist, dazed. It was the same for everyone else who attended the party. I was worried that the main character of this party would not be her for some sort of political reason, but I was relieved to see that it would never be her.
It's worth it if you think about it. A wardrobe that elevates glamour by 1. So it's 9.5 now. Overwhelming the attention of all, there is no shortage.
“… Wow. ”
A few men's elastic sounds then ring in the banquet hall. It was a little awkward, but there was also a blonde ‘Dermian’. He stares at her dazed, as if she had taken her soul from Cullen.
“Foot.”
He smiled and fainted at the strange appearance. He had that in him, too?

I'm going to finish the Cullen part today. So I'll raise another coin between 3 and 4 in the morning!
