The Noble Girl Living in Debt
Episode 1 humiliating encounter
The dating of the Viscount's fifth son, Bernard Orlélian, and the Countess's daughter, Agnes Reverge, date back five years.
Oddly, that was the day of Agnes' social debut.
Agnes had shiny golden hair, beautiful blue eyes like jewelry, and white porcelain skin that captivated the viewer.
She was a beautiful girl.
Although his appearance alone attracted attention, Agnes was the only daughter of the L'Averge family, an old nobleman.
The second and subsequent men who do not have a title in the future were also desirable women as companions, so that their hands would come out of their throat.
Agnies, surrounded by friends and acquaintances, is like a jewel in a treasure chest.
Blessed with social debut, she was at the height of happiness.
There was a man who stared at the Countess with no emotional eyes.
Bernard Orlérian. 16 years older than Agnes.
He also participates in ball gowns in search of his spouse.
Bernard is the fifth child of the Viscount Orlérian family.
The father gave the children a meaningful name, saying, "Name represents body."
A glorious reputation (Robert), a victor (Victor), a strong warrior (Matildo), a famous warrior (Louis) from above.
However, his fifth man, who broke the story with a man, gave the name "Bernard".
Meaning is a strong man like a bear. Abbreviated to bear man.
It had brown hair, brown eyes and hair with a habit of hair tips, so when I was a kid I was like a stuffed animal. Her mother was so cute that she called her “Kuma,” but as she grew older, it became depressing, and her long hair, which had been tied together in the year she joined the Knights, was cut short. Currently, no one but his family knows Bernard had a habit.
Although he did not grow up in a solid body like a bear, his back grew steadily.
Such a man was successfully recognized last year alone and has been playing a modest role in the Knights.
Knight Bernard has been receiving invitations for the evening party since last year.
Once a year, the King's Dinner is a large social gathering.
The nobleman searches for a mate there. That said, marriage wasn't a realistic story for a young man.
The knight's salary is modest, and he is the fifth son without a large fortune.
Only a modest, chalk house on the outskirts of the city was his property.
The Orleans, the birthplace of Bernard, occupy a rural area far from the royal capital.
The residence in the royal capital was originally a townhouse that lived only during the social period. In the year he became a knight, he was handed over from his father as a personal proof.
The nanny who raised Bernard lives there.
The former nanny who manages the house, the husband who cares for the garden, the eldest son who performs the butler, the second son who takes care of the kitchen, the second daughter and the third daughter who serve as a maid. The eldest daughter went to the bride two months ago.
Bernard lives with the family.
Jizil, a former nanny, sent off Bernard with an expectation of choosing a wonderful bride.
I did my best last year.
I danced with my father's acquaintance and a daughter who seemed to be able to call.
However, if the attendant hears about Bernard's living environment and circumstances, the exchange will be over.
If you repeat it a few times, you'll notice that Bernard is not clever.
――What is important for marriage is property.
That's why Bernard was calm even before the beautiful girl Agnies.
My colleague, Givril Noailles, is going to invite her to dance.
His annual income and property are not so different from Bernard. He said it was useless, but he had no ear to listen.
While being forced by Gibril, he went inside Agnes's surroundings.
I waited for a long time, and finally came to call. What he was waiting for, however, was a disdainful glance at Agnes, who had heard of Gibril and Bernard.
Bernard saw his eyes and turned right, jumping out of the ballroom.
――Why do you have to be able to see your opponent with such eyes? !
He had been away from his parents since he was eleven years old, and he was standing alone to become a knight in the royal capital.
There is nothing shameful in your life or your birth.
I was proud of myself as a knight.
So, I remembered the fiery anger at what I saw with such eyes.
Return straight to the house and stay in your room without taking a bath.
The anger that boiled like a flame did not subside.
◇◇◇
In the next year, when socializing, Agnes' rumors will be heard frequently.
I heard from a colleague that her father is a minister and is examining his marriage partner.
"Would you choose a son-in-law from a promising civilian ... Well, what do you think, Bernard?"
"Do you know?"
A happy princess.
I thought that Bernard had no life.
I lost my feelings of anger after a year. I am relieved that I was as simple as a bear.
However, she encounters her in a strange place.
That was when Bernard was on a patrol mission in the Royal Gardens.
The second prince called many women and held a large tea ceremony.
As a precautionary measure, guarding knights are often deployed. Bernard, who usually guards the palace, was also rushed out.
A tea ceremony is not something you can enjoy at one desk.
It was a large-scale event like a garden party.
Bernard was patrolling a maze of rose gardens.
Then a sweet shout of the man is heard.
"Agnies ~, fufufu, what a crazy girl ~"
Bernard screams whether men and women are chasing each other.
I tried to keep away from my voice so as not to mix the pots.
However, he meets a girl at a corner.
A fluffy, sweet and soft candy-like girl jumped into Bernard's chest.
"Kyaa!"
"!?"
Immediately, hug yourself as it was about to roll to the ground.
I noticed that my shoulder was shaking slightly, and I fluttered away.
And look at the girl I met, I'm scared.
Golden hair that shines like silk, clear blue eyes like jewelry, and white skin that slips through.
Agnès Reverge.
One year has passed since then, and she had a sensual sensuality in innocence.
In a short period of time, it can be seen that this has changed.
At the same time, I noticed something unusual.
I'm breathing on my shoulder.
It was good to see the momentum that came out, the breathing that was getting rough, and that I was running until now.
I suppose it was a split between men and women who were running away.
If you were doing something you couldn't do in a rose garden that wasn't popular, you would sigh deeply.
In the meantime, Agnies' eyes, who saw Bernard, narrowed quickly.
That is the same disgraceful eye as a year ago.
Bernard's whole body became hot and revived his anger.
If you step forward to complain, the sword on your waist will make a sound.
There he notices. I'm on duty now and say it's not a good time to bring my personality.
Reduce irritation.
She is not bad.
I told myself that the bad thing was the surrounding environment and tried to get away from it.
However, this is an unexpected development.
"Anie-su, where are you?-Kitten"
At the same time as the voice was heard, Agnes, the girl behind her, squeezed and pleaded with Bernard's jacket.
"--Knight, please, please help me!"
Bernard's eyes were rounded in the hope of an emergency.
