The Villainous Daughter does not Dance with the Dragon

I stepped into the room, terrified.

I bow my head if the blue-faced camilla doesn't return it. Isaac wishes you a good fight, Duchess......! and niggling and laughing and trying to turn back. I accidentally grabbed Isaac's arm and asked him to whisper.

"Will you stay?

"Uh, no. You're so scared of your master, aren't you? I'll comfort you later, so good luck."

Then he laughs and Isaac leaves.

Stannis is silent...... I never looked back.

"I'm home, Camilla. Stannis. Uh, it's late... sorry..."

Stannis stared at me trying to mislead me with a smile and then called out the name of my tutor, who was even frightened in the corner of the room.

"Camilla."

"Yes."

"- There's no point in being an escort who can't stop the Lord from taking risks."

"You're right, Master Saule"

"I will relieve you of your duties as escort... Get down today."

"Yes, sir."

Camilla forgave me when I tried to round my eyes and try to argue.

"Ma'am, it's my fault... please"

"Camilla's not bad! He said you weren't so angry because of me being on my own! … and I just had a little outing with Alexander…"

"Didn't you hear that? Camilla, get down."

Ignoring my protest, Stannis continued. Camilla graciously leaves the room without sound.

I looked up at Stannis as I heard the door go away.

"- I think it was bad. Go out on your own."

"It wouldn't be strange if you had the intention of telling Cleric Alexander to harm your daughter if she were to be thrust from the sky. Even if Alexander has no intention of doing so. There are many western humans in Canaan."

"... I am."

"Canaan and the West have more dragons than the King's Capital. Not only a limited number of humans fly in the sky like Wang Du...... Not alert enough."

"I'm sorry, Stannis. But that's because I'm sorry... Camilla is."

Stannis clearly affirmed my excuse.

"Yeah, the lady's bad. Go out on your own and worry about everyone. … but it was Camilla's sweetness that made Lemiria make a mistake"

"... Yes"

"Ma'am.... although I know your daughter doesn't really like having sequences with servants. I am not impressed with your daughter's small estimate of her own influence. If anything happens to the lady, Her Excellency the Duke has to punish Camilla. Your friend Viscount Clef's sister for many years."

"... Yes"

"Canaan is not as secure as Wang Du. - Be careful."

Reflect sufficiently, Stannis told me and I nodded with a sinking voice. Stannis finally loosens his expression and recommends the chair to me when it shrivels.

"Please, have a seat"

As I quietly follow, Stannis crouches in and looks up at me. My eyes under my glasses weren't angry anymore.

"... I didn't feel comfortable living just thinking if anything happened to Remilia."

"Stannis, thanks to you."

"No. Just remember this. If anything happens to the lady, my husband and I will be worthless to live. And Master Julius."

In a sincere tone, I apologized to him again.

"- Sorry to bother you, Stannis."

"Yes.... talk to Camilla properly from the lady later"

"I will......"

Stannis smiled and stood up, so he heard.

"Until Camilla and I left, what did you want to talk to Alexander about, ma'am?

I, uh, clouded the words. Stannis snaps his neck.

"Sometimes the lady even keeps secrets from me, doesn't she? Don't you have that much credit?

I shook my head because I was sad.

"If I don't trust Stannis, I don't know who to trust."

Stannis smiled with a gentle face.

"So, can you tell me what the secret conversation is about?

I nodded and told Stannis what I had talked to Alexander about. I want to escort Cleric Lydia away from Catagina.

"... I saw Katajina and Hayal speak intimately in the royal palace before. Katajina, who hates the West, is in a strangely good mood in Canaan, and wants Katajina to stay away from Lydia, who is intoxicated."

"I see. At last, I'd like to work with Cleric Alexander if I can. He... unlike Lydia, doesn't seem tough. I'm not too impressed with putting Lydia next to your daughter..."

"Wouldn't it be better to put her beside Catagina?

"No, I was wondering if you two could put it aside and move..."

"What do you mean?

Stannis put on an arm and thought it over a bit.

"No, I mean this one. But right...... If you want Lydia to be your escort, just in case you need another escort."

"Does that mean Stannis will provide an escort?

Stannis pushed the bridge of glasses with his finger to deny it.

"Unfortunately, I would like to try from somewhere else to proceed without delay with this visit to Canaan. I don't know what else to do, so why don't we source it from a different source?"

"Procurement......?

As I repeated Stannis' words, he looked at the ceiling and blurred.

"... I don't really want to please him..."

The next day, a boy showed up in my room for breakfast.

He shines his black eyes, grins and laughs, bowing his head to me. Next to me, the cleric Lydia distorted her cheeks slightly uncomfortably - but upon realizing it, my acquaintance was not frightened.

"My name is Isaac Kirchner from the Kirchner Chamber of Commerce. As of today, it has been dated by Lady Remilia. Let us know if you have any inconvenience."
