The plain and unnoticed me is no more

"Where's the queen going?
"It's a market. I have the spice I want, so I'm looking for it."
"I see... I'm going in that direction too, so I'll drive you halfway. Speaking of morning, it's dangerous for a woman to walk alone."
"I'm sorry. I'll come with you on the way."
On the way down the stairs, I heard a conversation between the maid general and a girl named Chiyo, and I decided to take the maid general of the inn to the market at random.
I was going to stay out of it as much as I could, but somehow I felt that way.
Is it because you found out that this woman's name is the same as Lana's?
Because her voice resembles that of Lana I heard at the party?
This hood, which hides her face, was in the way, and I had never seen her face, but I was a little interested.
Perhaps the name is based on a liner taken from the goddess Linatemis of water and abundance. Lina and Lana are common names for immigrant children. It is never an unusual name.
After all, it may have drawn me to this voice.
"Where did the General teach cooking? After all, have you studied in Japan?
"No, I'm mostly self-taught. My parents worked together, so when I was a kid, I used to eat on behalf of my mother, so I remembered it naturally. And since my father was a cook, the basics were laid down by him."
Oh, I see. Not all civilian life is left to servants like royalty and nobility. It is the mother's job to cook, and if the mother goes out to work, it is only natural for the child to help.
Everywhere I've seen the house, it certainly looked like that.
The desire to let the family eat delicious food made her a good cook today. Nevertheless, I think the words that speak of my parents were in the past, but are they both dead? Liam told me that the previous owner of the inn was an old couple, but he said it didn't seem to be related.
If she bought an old inn from her parents' estate and came here on her own arm, she would be really big.
Because it tastes better than the Royal Palace cuisine, I thought it was a woman who had properly trained in cooking as a matter of course.
"I wonder if I can cook that much on my own...."
The next moment she was impressed and muttered to herself, she was blown by a gust from the front and received the wind properly. The hood I was wearing was thrown into the wind, and I wore it back in a hurry.
Looking at her, who was walking right next door, she looked down at her face from the wind, holding her head with both hands. Apparently, we haven't seen the hood come off. As far as I can tell, I'm not the first prince in this country. Most people around here won't know my face.
Nevertheless, I've seen her work in the kitchen, but the deeply covered hood narrowed her vision and almost never saw her from her chest down. I didn't know you were such a brilliant platinum blonde.
"It was a great wind. My hair is disturbed."
"Ah, ah. Is the general's hair discolored? It's been fashionable lately, as I often see in town, but there are more women dyeing blondes. But is the hair natural? Some of the women I know have the same hair color..."
Out of curiosity, I lifted my hooded hand a little and looked at her face.
The impression is completely different with makeup, but this is exactly what I expected Lana to look like after growing up. In the case of a woman, it is possible that if she takes off her makeup, it will be a completely different person... but is this a fantasy of others? The story she just heard about herself will not be a lie. I didn't see any false colors. So, is there someone very similar here? Or are you really living in Ichii by hiding your identity? If so, why?
Well, is that so? Ah, that's the market I wanted to go to. Thank you for taking the long way, Fred. Thank you for your concern. If you find a good spice here, I'll serve it on tonight's menu. Now, if you'll excuse me. "
I want to confirm whether it is the person or not right now, but if someone finds out who I am, I don't want you to hide somewhere. I'll see how it goes for a while.
But I don't know.
If that were the Duchess of Elaine Lana Norris, you wouldn't be able to cook like that. Is it still someone else's fantasy? There are several people in the world who are very similar to themselves.
Like Liam to me. Well, he's my mother's cousin, so it's no wonder he has a similar base. Besides, it's only the first time I can't tell the difference by dressing up.
Oh, what am I supposed to do with this? Liam, who is circling the convent, may be contacting us to say he found Lana. I don't know what he's bringing home, but I decided to have a little interaction with Lana at the inn. You may be able to identify yourself from conversations and manners.
