CH 113

The day of the charity party.

Unable to overcome Sylvester’s youthful behavior, I had no choice but to attend the charity party.

It was difficult to meet the people I had mentioned, but I had no choice but to do it.

Because I was asked to use necromancy.

I made sure there was no one in the room and stretched my hand out into the air.

And lightly recited the spell I had memorized.

Then the sound came out and the wind blew. Whoosh, the energy circulated and a whirlwind rose above my palm.

And where the wind disappeared.

Pong, the thing came up.

“Aww, you’re cute.”

I said while stroking the heads of the two little spirits.

And put one on each shoulder.

I’ll go to a charity party later and put it on Marquis Richel and Count Amber, respectively.

In fact, I don’t think I’ll be able to get the right evidence by doing this.

Asking to use necromancy was like Sylvester’s excuse.

“He was very resentful at the first dance.”

I smiled and muttered.

However, I could give him this much slack.

The reason is—.

‘It’s cute?’

What? 

I swept my arm, feeling goosebumps at the thought I had without realizing it.

Since when did Sylvester look cute?

‘I don’t know.’

Without knowing it, he became cute.

It makes me laugh when I see it.

‘Hmm.’

I folded my arms.

I heard from somewhere that if they’re cute, I’m lose.

Am I losing?

I thought about it for a while.

The worries were not long.

This is because Irene pushed in a hanger.

“Madam! I brought a dress!”

As it was a charity party, Irene said that it should never fall for it, and Irene was thinking of putting a lot of effort into my makeup.

I’m going to leave my body to her like that.

Many people will come today, so it’s better to dress up properly as Irene said.

“I’ve picked out two dresses, would you like to pick one?”

“Good job. Let’s see.”

I looked at the two dresses Irene chose.

“This is a charity party, so I chose this dress because I thought it would be better to go peacefully.”

It is a high-neck style dress. A dress that wraps around the neck.

The type that Fleur likes to wear. This is a dress that Callian would love.

“I chose this because I thought it would suit Madam.”

It is an off-the-shoulder type dress made of purple velvet.

As soon as I saw the dress, I instinctively thought of Sylvester.

‘I like the feel of velvet’

The words he had said in the past flashed through my mind.

So I pointed my hand toward the dress without realizing it.

“It’s better to wear that.”

“As expected, this one right?”

Irene smiled and pulled the dress out of the hanger.

“This will look better on Madam.”

Right. It will look better on me, and Sylvester will like it better.

I thought so and left my body to Irene.

*****

“You’re pretty today, too.”

Sylvester, who was standing in front of the door, said as soon as I opened the door and came out.

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard it, but I’m used to it now.

So I smiled and replied back.

“I’m always pretty.”

Sylvester bursts into laughter and nods. I agree with you. That’s what he meant.

“What about me?”

He grabbed the end of the jacket and shook it off and said.

“Am I not cool?”

Today Sylvester is wearing a dark blue suit. His black hair and blue eyes match the color of the clothes so well.

So I said just one thing.

“You’re pretty, too.”

Compliments.

Then Sylvester’s lips went up in a round line.

“Cute.” 

He patted my cheek and then guided me.

I walked down the hall with my arms folded to him, came down the stairs, and crossed the hall. Then I got on the carriage

.The carriage door is closed.

Soon after, the carriage departed.

“Come to think of it.”

Sylvester said.

“The construction of the school and nursery will begin soon.”

“Ah, it’s a bit late, isn’t it?” 

“Yeah. It took me a while to buy the site.”

It seems that there was a rough situation. I nodded my head.

“Anyway, the building will go up soon, and when it’s finished, it will go according to your plan—”

Sylvester continued.

“A stone statue of the Emperor will be built. If that happens, I will have to explain in many ways.”

Sylvester, the head of the nobility, built a stone statue for the Emperor. At school, too.

It is something that nobles can carry and happen.

But isn’t this already agreed upon?

I said with my eyes glazed.

“We decided to say that His Majesty invested and built a stone statue. Then everyone will be quiet.”

“But the words will keep coming from behind.”

“I don’t know. I don’t know.”

“You’ve done this, but you don’t know?”

Sylvester laughed in vain.

“You’re so mean.”

He smirked, touching the tip of my nose.

Anyway, he likes to touch my face.

I slightly blushed as I stroked my cheek.

“It is said that the 2nd Prince was put on probation. So he won’t be able to go out for a while.”

“That’s a relief.”

“It’s not a relief to me.”

Sylvester narrowed his eyes.

Well. Sylvester has to make Largo emperor, so he will not be willing to take care of it.

“Magic circle.” 

So he asked me.

“How are you going to find it?” 

If I only stole the magic circle that Largo had, he wouldn’t have to support him anymore.

Sylvester’s eyes were twinkling as he asked, and he seemed to have high expectations for me.

So I answered right away.

“I don’t know yet.”

“What?”

“But wouldn’t there be a way?”

“Ha?”

Sylvester laughed in vain.

“You’re so easygoing.”

He shook his head.

What is it?

I listened intently to see if he was swearing.

But what I heard was a compliment, not an insult.

“So when I see you, I feel at ease.”

Oh my goodness—.

Hearing these words, a corner of my heart melted.

It makes her heart pound, too.

So, I tried to ask the question I had been holding on to the whole time.

“Why do you like me?”

Sylvester raised an eyebrow. I added a word.

“No I mean, that’s right. I don’t know why you suddenly fell in love with me.”

“I think I’ve answered a similar question.”

He crossed his legs with a smile.

And he stared at me.

“I like it because it’s you.”

“….”

“I like that I have you.”

How can you not blink your eyes while saying something embarrassing like this?

It was amazing.

I put my hands together again, feeling my heart pounding again.

“Actually, I don’t know what the feeling of liking is.”

So I said the words I had been holding on to the whole time.

Because I was really curious.

“What the hell is that?”

Sylvester’s expression changed slightly strangely.

He interlocked and leaned his body forward a little. Make eye contact with me a little closer.

“Things that remind you of that person in everything.”

Sylvester said, giving each letter of strength.

“At least I was like that.”

I stumbled over his words.

And unconsciously, I glanced down at the dress I was wearing.

Sylvester’s favorite velvet dress.

Why did I choose this?

‘Things that remind you of that person in everything’

No way.

Is that the reason?
