Chapter 97

Darrel, who was looking at her, put off the embroidery supplies and made another suggestion.

“Princess. What if we learn embroidery next time, and learn how to shoot a bow from the Princess today?”

Rieta looked up at the Princess closely, with a face all but asking for permission if she wanted to do it.

“Of course I am fine.”

As she answered, the Princess smiled sincerely without realizing it.

Come to think of it.

She was very depressed a while ago.

Ever since she came here and met Darrel and Rieta, she had completely forgotten what had been on her mind.

Darrel was a person who always makes others feel comfortable, so it was okay, but it was a little strange to feel this way around the Princess of Liz.

Maybe it was thanks to the gift she received last time.

Because no one has ever given such a gift to the Princess.

Gabriella smiled more relaxedly.

“I will teach you with all my heart. It would be far more helpful than my older brother’s poor embroidery skills!”

The Princess grabbed Rieta’s little hand, and they exited the tent.

This was a hunting ground, so they had a space to practice archery just a short walk away.

On days like today, it was usually occupied by young nobles.

Fortunately, it was almost empty, as everyone had gone for a snack.

Gabriella stood behind Rieta and gave her detailed instructions on how to shoot the bow.

However, it was not easy for her to pull the bow, regardless of how children’s bows were made.

“You are doing well.”

Whenever Rieta was having a hard time, the Princess supported her with kind words.

Of course, she did not forget to continue to correct her posture.

Rieta managed to shoot a bow a few times, but unfortunately, the arrows barely flew at all. They scattered and fell to the ground.

Still, she had some fun.

“How is it? Is it doable?”

“It’s fun. Maybe it was because the Princess taught me.”

That was a cute answer.

Perhaps, hearing these words, anyone would love this child.

“Well, by the way, how about the Duchy. . . ?”

“Yes?”

In response to the sudden question, Rieta straightened herself and looked at her Princess.

“I was just curious. How is the Princess doing?”

“Everyone was kind to me.”

“Who is the kindest?”

In fact, to this question, Rieta was about to answer, ‘It’s the Duke!’

But she soon realized that this was a very good moment.

So, it’s a ‘good time to sell Noel’.

If Rieta makes Noel’s image positive to the Princess, she will tell the female lead about Noel in a good way in the future.

“It’s Noel!”

“. . . ?”

“Noel Mayer.”

“Yes?”

Of course, since Noel’s behavior was usually famous, the Princess’s reaction was somewhat shaky.

“Really. You have no idea how sweet he is!”

Of course, in Rieta’s words, the precautions ‘It will be like that in the future’ was boldly omitted.

“Is Noel friendly?”

Nod, nod.

“What the hell . . . how did that kid be sweet?”

The Princess responded that such a thing was impossible.

At that moment, Rieta felt the urge to punch Noel down.

Noel, this punk. How rude has he been to the Princess usually!

. . . But.

If it’s enough to the point of saying ‘stupid’ or ‘Are you crazy’ to a foreign Princess.

He must have acted even worse to his cousin sister, who was related to him.

As expected it’s ‘idiom’ Noel.

“No, Noel is.”

Rieta stuttered slightly, recalling the story to defend ‘idiom’ Noel.

“He, he gave me strawberries when I ate the cake. He found the name of the flower I liked and even bought me that.”

In fact, it turned out that he had lied to Rieta, and that he did it out of guilt.

“When I was sick, he wrote me a letter so that I wouldn’t be lonely.”

Of course, it wasn’t a consolation letter, but a note sent through the cracks in the door.

“There, he always helps me learn the Imperial language.”

That was true.

It’s a pity that he teased her for flattening the pronunciation and applied glue to her precious portrait.

“It’s amazing. I thought Noel would always be childish.”

By this time, Rieta’s false sales comments came out as if there were wings in her mouth.

“Not at all. Noel will be a really good man later. He will be the best groom ever!”

. . . What?

Had she gone too far?

No.

It was difficult not to do this.

If her perception of Noel is not good, the Princess will not recommend Noel to the female lead, unless she carried out a bold and aggressive sales strategy.

Of course, she felt a little guilty.

Somehow, she thought of herself as a bad merchant who sells goods with a lie.

The Princess rolled her purple eyes as if she was chewing on Rieta’s words several times.

“Pfft.”

. . . She burst into laughter.

“It, it’s true.”

Rieta was crying, and she quickly introduced Noel’s other gentleness.

“He told me today that he’ll make me a winner! He said he would bring a roe deer the size of a carriage!”
