The plain and unnoticed me is no more
94. Ugly rumors about the ladies.
Fred was dancing with someone in the middle of the venue while the crowd was watching.
The couples who were dancing around gave up the space and showed everyone the elegance and pleasure of the space, as if it were just a stage for two.
From my position, from the gap between people, I can only see the two people dancing across. I could go ahead and see it, but I didn't want to do it for some reason.
"Dear Dalia, I have a chair over there."
"No, I'm here... waiting for it to end. Don't worry about me."
As soon as I entered the venue, I stopped and was nailed to the two dancing people, Hubert took care of me and tried to guide me to the seat reserved for the royal family.
But I couldn't get away from the sight in front of me. Several people who were watching in the front row left, and the obstacle was gone, so that they could see clearly.
I don't know why, but seeing it made my chest hurt and I was driven by the urge to split between those two right now.
"Your Highness will be back in a single dance. There are people in and out of here, so let's move a little."
That's right. Let's go over there. "
He took his hands off Hubert who had escorted me, moved a little away from where he had just come in, and stood by the wall just beside the door. Hubert didn't say anything, and stayed with me and lined up next door.
Why is it so sad to see Fred dancing with someone, even though it's not a matter of what I say? He served only as Lord Wilfred's shadow warrior.
Now it's not like you're burning a yakimoto. I don't have any special feelings for him, but I'm weird. What's going on?
Fred is dealing with my friend, Countess Maria Calvani.
Fred gently laughed at Maria, and Maria smiled happily. Maria was supposed to be good at dancing, but she looks clumsy today.
Since she never got the attention of all of us like this, there might be no other way.
Before we came to this place, there were a few ladies gathered there and suddenly talking about someone. It wasn't much fun to hear, it made me feel like I wanted to close my ears.
When I decided to leave, my friend's name came up and I decided to let them talk to me.
"Oh, yeah, you know what? Maria thinks she's going to be chosen for your partner tonight, and she's got a new dress. I went all the way from the prestigious school to the same school as His Highness Wilfred, said I wanted to be of service to His Highness, and rubbed it shamefully... and now I'm getting along with His Highness's group. I don't want to mess with you."
"Well! You look like an adult, but you don't look like one."
"Fufufu, but you didn't choose me from His Highness? Hmm, so you cried to your father that he wanted to dance to get in the way of you two being together. Didn't you see him with you tonight? There's no winning factor."
The group of ladies in front of me started talking about Maria.
I didn't know that Maria had transferred to school. I've been looking forward to her visiting the inn since then, but she hasn't come yet.
So I have a lot of things I want to talk to her about, but I haven't been able to talk to her yet.
Graduating from that school will be a status of nobility. I'm sure Maria had the advantage of just throwing it away and transferring to school, but maybe something happened after I left school, and I don't want to think it's easy for her to follow Lord Wilfred.
The group of ladies began to thrive on Maria's story.
I can only see my side from where I am, but does everyone realize how ugly I sound? Gradually, there began to be a black-and-white fog from them.
The group of men who were nearby were curious to hear at first, but they knew the ugly back face of the woman and stared away.
"Isn't there something wrong with her? Recently, she has been totally fiancée, as she is valued in a scene where she has to be accompanied by a woman to take good care of Her Highness in school. When I saw His Highness bring that beautiful woman with me, my chest was relieved. I'm sure I wanted her to understand. You're not my type."
The ladies around her laughed ill at this remark.
Maria, staring at her partner in the middle of the hall, was still dancing with Fred, even though she didn't know she was saying something like this.
And the song that was playing now was almost over.
"Fufu, you say that too. But that's what all the girls at school think. Including those who brought her from her former school. He cautioned against getting on too much lately, but she didn't listen to her friend's advice. His Highness didn't have a special woman, but he persisted and he hated me."
"Hey, speaking of your Highness's care, is that the role of the one-eyed magician, Hubert? Because Maria is stuck in her body, she occasionally has a nasty face. I don't think she's blunt, but don't you realize?
I accidentally saw Master Hubert. You didn't think your name would come up in this conversation. He had a disgusting face.
Now they call you the Wizard of the Shino-eye. If you still have two such fine names from among your students, it will be difficult for you to do it at school.
"Ah, she just asked for another song."
"Huh? How do you know I can't hear you?
"Fufu, it's lip-reading. It's convenient to know what kind of conversation you're having even when you're away. Just for the record, you two had a friendly conversation while you were dancing with Dahlia earlier. Your Highness said it would be fun because it would go well with you, and Dalia-sama suggested that I should change my dance partner, but she still wanted to dance like this."
"Hmm, so you're not sure about your destiny anymore? Dalia-sama is older, but she doesn't feel uncomfortable standing alongside her calm Highness."
"No one can beat you because you have the intelligence to look like that. I've seen him for the first time, but I don't think anybody's gonna say weird anymore. I wonder if this strange Maria is still going to come to His Highness."
Even though I didn't know that the people in question were listening right away, the ladies flourished on their own, and furthermore, they were blooming with bad words to Maria.
I understand that the conversation between the noble ladies is like this, but if I am here as the Duchess of Elaine Norris, I am definitely watching out for them. You shouldn't casually listen to what kind of conversation the prince was having.
But now that she's here as Daria and she said she doesn't care about anyone, don't do anything extra.
Then, the lady who was proud of lip reading glanced back casually with a careless face, even though she felt the gaze from us. Then my eyes met, and surprised, she began to shake her lips with her eyes wide open and her eyeballs about to fall.
"Ah! Dear Daria! I'm sorry."
"Eh...? Dalia-sama?"
When one voice was raised, the ladies who were there looked back at us all at once, bowed in haste as they blushed, and left the scene.
When they disappeared, nothing blocked their vision, and I saw Fred dancing with Maria for the second time.
"What's wrong with His Highness, he can't even dance two songs. I'm waiting for my partner today...."
"Don't say that. I don't mind."
In the front, as they watched the two dances, they laid back on the music that flows gracefully, and the people who were shaking their bodies naturally as if they had danced stopped being spectators, and they started dancing again.
Until now, the place that seemed like a stage for just two people was filled with young people who wanted to dance, and Fred and Maria were no longer visible.
"Um... Master Hubert. The air is bad here, so I'm going out. I'd like to walk around the garden a little....."
I couldn't stand the bad air in this venue, so I decided to purify and distract myself from the venue. Even the ladies earlier had exhaled a considerable amount of black fog, but when I looked across the venue, I saw a mass of fog over there like some kind of black horrible creature.
Even if we purify all of this now, we may soon be able to get it back together again.
Still, I was distracted by the mist in order to clean up all the air in the venue.
Then, for a moment, the air was so tight that I could hear the metal sound of Kim, and the black mist that was drifting around the venue was purified at once.
Most people in the venue didn't seem to feel anything, but several people, including Hubert, reacted immediately to the current phenomenon and looked around for the source.
I went out on the terrace with a nasty face and inhaled the outside air.
"Miss Daria, if you can get out of the garden, I'll show you around."
His Highness Frederick was there when he was on the terrace. Obey Evan and Aaron, of course.
