The Timid Count’s Daughter Doesn’t Wish for Quarrel

Her Royal Highness Marion seemed to have written a reply right after that, and a few days later I was to deposit a letter from Lady Sophie to which a reply had been written.

So, I have to give a letter to His Highness Marion, but he's always surrounded by students, not very much, but he's not going to be able to give it to me. There's always someone on your side waiting for you to be alone.

That's how I haven't been able to give you a letter after a week, has it?

But I've been observing His Highness Marion all day, and I've realized that his pattern of behavior is regular.

First of all, that he will only be alone when he goes to pick flowers.

The others are on the side of the squire and others, so they are not easy to get close to.

And I'm going to pick flowers when the second limit is over and right after lunch and afternoon classes.

There's only one person traveling along the way, and if you want to speak up, that's the only place.

In addition, we anticipated where he would use the timetable and looked up the route.

Easy after.

There's a street. You just have to hide him in the shadows and wait.

In that way, I succeeded in handing over the letter safely.

About twice, when I did that, I finally got a report from Her Royal Highness Marion, saying thank you.

I'm relieved of the pressure.

And then it seemed that His Royal Highness Marion was not really cooperating with His Royal Highness the King, and had stopped hearing rumors that Mr. Rosetta and His Royal Highness the King were seeing each other.

Instead, Sophie and Her Royal Highness Prince Wang are spending more time together, so she seems very happy.

Since then, she seems to be making various references to romantic novels, and today she had this kind of conversation with His Royal Highness Prince Wang and other stories about where she went out there.

I can't help but be happy because I'm really happy to talk to you.

On such a holiday, I spoke to the man to go out.

"Oh, will you get the carriage out to Grand Orbert today? He said he had a new cake."

Grand Orbert is a famous treat shop for royalty.

Baked sweets and tarts are delicious too, but the best part is cake, no matter what.

Because they are royal servants, the nobles make them delicious, and they are delicious. It's a famous store, so there are a lot of people in the daytime, but I often go to a lesser part of my customers' time to keep them out of sight.

Well, it's nearly evening, so I don't have that much sweets left.

The new cake is likely sold out today.

But you don't have to. All the sweets over there are delicious.

I bought some and tried to make it a souvenir for my mother, and in the carriage I woke up and waited to arrive at the store.

After a while, the carriage stopped and I learned that I had arrived at the store.

The door opened and I walked out of the carriage into the store at first sight.

"Welcome"

I gently meet the clerk who has spoken to me and turn my attention to the bills of sweets that are arranged.

Exactly. The new cake seemed to be sold out, but there were still bills of treats I had never eaten.

Worried about which one, the clerk approaches me.

"Excuse me, are you sure in Dear Amelia Reston?

"Huh? Yes. Amelia Reston is me."

I wondered why you knew my name, and the clerk pointed me to a private room in the back.

"Um."

"Reservations accepted"

"Reservations? Though I haven't made any reservations"

"But I do ask you to show Amelia around."

Now, go ahead, he said, and I headed to the private room in the back, questionably speaking.

There's nobody in there, and I sit in my seat and tilt my neck.

I've come as they say, but what is this? Are you sure you're glad I came?

What a troubled while the clerk comes and puts a cake I've never seen in front of me.

"Huh? Could this be a new piece of cake?

"Yes, he said to send it out to Amelia from the one above."

The clerk, who answered clerically, left quietly when he put the cake and drink down.

What is this really about?

... but it looks delicious. Looks really delicious.

My eyes nail to the cake placed in front of me.

"You don't mind if I give it to you."

I don't know who's doing what for, but there's no sin in food.

It was served to me, so there should be no problem eating it.

"Okay, I'll take it"

Hold the fork, I start eating my new cake.

"Wow, the dough is soft and the sweetness of the cream stands out. It's really delicious. You could have been lucky to be eaten even though you sold out."

Plus, it's not persistent in sweetness, so I think I can eat as much as I want.

As much as I want to buy a souvenir and go home.

Moved by the flavor, I quickly finished my cake.

"It's as delicious as you all said."

When you're near Master Sophie, you have a lot of opportunities to learn about new cakes and trendy stores from people around you.

So, remember, I'm enjoying myself later.

Ladies and gentlemen, in an attempt to be liked by Master Sophie, you are very helpful because you are purchasing a lot of information, because the quality of flavors and things is guaranteed, and you will not miss the topic.

"Well, I got you some tea, maybe I'll buy you a souvenir and go home."

Standing on my seat, I stop the movement when I hear a knock on the door of a private room.

The door opened without hearing this reply, and His Highness Marion, who was not supposed to be here from the outside, appeared, and I opened my eyes.

With me on his ass as he was stiffening, he lowered his hips to the front.

"Was the new cake delicious?

Your Highness Marion speaks softly.

I didn't know why he was here and it was still solidifying.

"Oh, you wonder why I'm here?

I nodded, stunned.

"That's because I was the one who booked it."

Surprised? I'm not surprised.

What's the point?

Oh, no way, you did this to get me to cooperate with Master Sophie or something?

If so, you shouldn't have eaten the cake.

It's not what His Highness Marion thinks it is!

"Cooperate."

"No, I'm not. I didn't bribe you because I need your help with Sophie."

"So why not?"

If that's not the reason, it shouldn't be a reason to treat me to a new piece of cake.

"I asked you to help me with the letter. Thank you for that. I heard you visit a lot on holidays, so I asked the store in advance."

"Thank you?

"Yes, thanks for making me Sophie's correspondent friend."

"Ha."

Though I'm filled with incredible feelings that that belly-black prince will thank you.

You say that's what it's all about, so you should honestly appreciate it without thinking behind the words.

But you're stopping me from cooperating with His Royal Highness Prince Wang. What a surprise.

Because His Royal Highness Marion didn't think he would ever suppress his feelings.

"You really took your hand off the matter of His Royal Highness Prince Wang and Mr. Rosetta"

"Isn't that obvious? Because Sophie might hate me, and I had a guilty conscience. Besides, if I saw Sophie's face, I wouldn't be able to help my brother."

"You put Master Sophie's happiness first."

"Well, you're the one who made me realize that. That's why I'm thanking you for today."

I don't think you've done anything to thank me... I feel kind of bad.

"You didn't like to stand out, so I went out of my way to get a private room with a fake name."

"Thank you for your concern."

"Nothing like this. Still, I was really surprised every time they gave me a letter from you. Do you even have any special training?

Special training!? I've never taken anything like that.

Yeah, but I take great care to keep it out of sight, so maybe that's what surprises His Highness Marion.

Besides, I was trying to stay on Master Sophie's side and get rid of signs that I wouldn't be able to talk to her, so that she wouldn't stand out. Maybe because of that.

"I don't have any special training, but I encourage you every day to get rid of signs and not be noticeable, so you may be better at things like not being noticeable"

"So much so that I don't realize I'm royal. So it's a big deal, isn't it? And every time I was alone, I was calling."

"That's because I've looked into His Highness Marion's behavior and figured out when you'll be alone"

His Highness Marion opened his eyes to my words.

Oh, I probably shouldn't have had this. I told you I was following you around, didn't I?

No one would feel better if they were looking into themselves in the shadows.

"Sorry"

I get up and bow my head deeply.

"No, I don't care because I thought it would be hard to give a letter to me with people around me.... and you're surprised. Don't you have a talent for espionage?

"S, spy!?

I turn my voice back on words I never thought I would.

A spy is a profession that examines the trends of disturbing elements in other countries and in their own countries in the shadows.

I can't, I can't! You can't possibly do that to me.

Mostly, I can't believe we're dealing with state secrets. Besides, I don't have the talent to be a spy.

"I'm glad you appreciate it, but I was wondering if it wouldn't do me any good"

"Really? Though I think it's a great talent to look up their behavior patterns and have sneak contacts. You always thought it was amazing because there's no sign of it, right?

"No, I thought that was too much to buy"

"You're surprisingly low on self-esteem."

Really? Though I understand myself as much as I do no more.

That's really overrated.

"From what I've seen, though there's no more talent for espionage than you. 'Cause you're good at putting out signs, and you don't get alerted by them because they don't look prominent, and you don't think they're harmful, do you?

"That is so...... I don't think that's all there is to spy on."

"You know what? A spy is a job to get information from someone. Because they don't think it's harmful, they talk perky and informative. Very valuable information."

His Royal Highness Marion is grinning niggardly as he does not seem to be a very prince.

You appreciate it, but you don't care about it at all for me.

"Um, my dream is to marry a similar man and live quietly in the country, so I'd rather not be a spy"

"That's too bad"

Or something like that, but His Highness Marion doesn't seem sorry at all.

Maybe we just talked about it as a public story.

"I know your personality because I'm looking into it. Besides, you're welcome for a moment."

"By accident?

"Yes. I was looking into you in person, because what a rose. If you were a real spy, you'd be caught on the spot."

I have a headache when I feel conscious. It's my bad thing you don't have to tell me.

Again, I bowed my head momentously.

"I am so sorry......!

"As I said earlier, I don't care. I can predict what will happen if you give me the letter in front of everyone. [M] I was saved by your good intentions, and I don't care about that triviality."

Oh, thank God. And I thought, but you shouldn't be sweet on this kind of goodwill.

We need to be careful not to inadvertently say extra things.

"Then it's time for me to go home. I just came to say thank you today. And I ordered a new cake for my souvenir."

"Oh, thank you"

"I'd appreciate it. Thanks to you, I can exchange letters with Sophie."

"That's what Master Sophie wants."

I just left a letter with Master Sophie and gave it to Her Highness Marion.

You don't have to know who they are.

So I think it's different to be thankful.

"Still, you wouldn't have made it this far without you. 'Cause I'm bothering Sophie and you because I did something stupid."

"But Sophie seems very happy to spend more time with His Royal Highness Prince Wang."

"... it would be nice if that pleasure lasted."

To His Highness Marion, who put it in an inclusive way, I questioned what it meant.

"Nothing, I just figured Sophie would be able to stay the way she always was, knowing what her brother really was. Though it would be helpful as far as I'm concerned."

Her Royal Highness Marion, who laughed lightly, never explained in detail, leaves the private room.

I was left worried about His Royal Highness Prince Wang and Lady Sophie and couldn't move off the spot for a while.
