The vice president of the Western Knights of Varga, Viscount Butler Caymon, was sent out to the terrace, and all that remains of the border between the castle and the terrace is a maid pushing me and the tea wagon.

"Follow me."

Take the maid and head to the gazebo built on the terrace. Viscount Caymon is already sitting in the gazebo, and I hear him saying hello and starting to talk about the outing dates.

The gazebo on the terrace is a kind of pavilion like the East House, made up of only cylindrically arranged columns and roofs. The gazebo built here is between columns and columns, with a fence about 90 cm high, with a clear entrance and exit.

I'm not in the gazebo, I'm monitoring the maid's movements preparing tea as an escort.

What the maid brought, apparently, is lemon tea. Remove the lemon from the tea wagon and slice it with a small fruit knife. From the tea bowl containing the tea leaves, whisk the tea leaves with a teaspoon and add them to the teapot. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 cups.

"Too much tolerance."

"Huh?"

In one word I said by accident, the maid stops moving. My hand with the teaspoon is shaking and I'm about to drop it now.

"It's for three, right? You can put it in the pot as many times as you want to serve. You don't have a spare pot?

"Yes, sir."

"Let me out, for once, say a spoon of tea for one person, but it's between 2g and 3g, right? You know that?

"Yes, sir"

"Then leave the pot alone for the number of people to serve."

I was curious and when I touched the pot, both the first pot and the second pot were made of cold porcelain.

"You should also keep the pot warm to serve delicious tea, you know?

"Yes, no, we don't know that"

"Then you know the best hot water to pour is freshly boiled?

"also, sorry"

"No, that's okay. So what's the temperature of the hot water?

"Duh, it's in a tool bag, so if you keep it warm enough, I think,"

"Let me out."

"Yes -"

I feel the maid's face is slightly bluer, but I guess it's under the wagon, I receive a pot with hot water served from inside the tool bag, open the lid and look inside.

It feels like it's boiling. There seems to be enough temperature......

Place only hot water in an empty teapot and leave it there for just a few minutes. The maid watching the act, not knowing what to do, seemed to be waiting for the next instruction as she shook her hands. That would be enough, I transferred hot water to a pot that already had more tea leaves in it and handed it to the maid where it was emptied.

"In the meantime, this will do. Allow the tea leaves."

"Yes, no"

The maid fears, teaspoon the tea leaves from the teaspoon and put them in a warm new teapot. Next, I tried to pour hot water into a teapot with tea leaves.

"Wait, the amount you can accommodate is for one person, about 150 ml for three. Is that okay?

No more words to return to the maid. Tears in his eyes, shaking his neck to the side.

"Lend it to me."

I receive a pot of hot water from the maid and pour it into the teapot.

By pouring hot water, there is a convection movement of tea leaves, called jumping, in the pot. Now the tea leaves in the pot are divided into rising and sinking tea leaves, which rise and sink around the pot over time.

And after about 3 minutes, all the tea leaves sink to the bottom and all the flavors of the tea leaves melt. While explaining it to the maid, line the tray with teacups and lemons to be transported to the gazebo -

"Your Eminence, you don't look good on the black side. You're bored with tea."

When I realized, the three of us who were supposed to be having an outing meeting in Gazebo were staring at me and my maid interacting...

I've never been more thankful for wearing the black side than I was at this time. My face now is burning bright red and my heart pulsing at high volume as I eject tons of sweat. Ha ha ha ha...

"I never thought I'd have that kind of taste in the shaft. Is there a word on how to put lemons in too?

Lapitilica asked, smiling. There's nothing to be afraid of there. Seen in the labyrinth of the Green Ghost, it seemed that Larry's figure close to nature was there.

"Ha, pour tea into the teacup and allow the lemon just before you drink. You may want to gently spin it and pull it up immediately. If you sink it in your teacup for a long time, the skin bitterness will develop and the taste will change"

"Okay, that's it, Lila. Get ready."

"Yes, ma'am"

Does this maid say lila......

In the gazebo, I hear "delicious" and "delicious" with admiration, but ignore. Ignore. Wait outside the gazebo with the maid Lyla.

To my mind, the tea I drink at the Marida Chamber of Commerce was delicious enough. But in places like restaurants and coffee shops in the city of Barga, I thought there was quite a difference in taste. The quality of the tea leaves is also well thought out, but I suppose we are in the process of developing a culture of fundamentally how to make tea and how to make tea.

With such reflection, he spent his first day as an escort.

◆◆◇◆◆◇◆◆

During the escort, Ashley and I will be sleeping in the Valdage Castle, but Ashley will be sleeping in this waiting room as Lapitilica's private room officer. I was a little far away, using the guard's bedroom.

Four people could sleep in two bunk beds, but he seemed to take care of it so that I could use it alone for only a few days staying at the Castle of Valdage.

The upcoming dates will be in Venere, a major city east of the King's Capital, where we will spend a few days the day after tomorrow, leaving for the King's Capital. They say this is the biggest city of pleasure in the Kurt Melga kingdom. I thought it was a city I remember hearing about somewhere, but as I was listening to the city, it was a city with a luxury whorehouse where Yagoche tried to sell off Marta and his wife's daughter, Merliah and maid Mertier.

He also stays in Venere for a few days, then finally returns to the King's Capital and, after another few days, to the fortified city of Barga. Apparently Balga territory and the Wang capital are not that dangerous, there were some students like Yagoche, but few organizations have the courage to get their hands on the Duke's house.

If there's a problem, it's vinere. As a city of great pleasure, many nobles gather, nightclubs are held as every night, and every advanced negotiation that cannot be spoken of in the Wang capital begins politics and economy, and various topics are spoken of in a mixed public discourse.

It was a common understanding between the Knights and the Duke to say that if direct harm were to be done to Lapitilica, it would be during this outing to Venere. But even if they think it's dangerous, they're not going to avoid it here, it's a serious act in the aristocracy, such as a social debut away from Venere.

The noble world, I don't know, but did Ashley, a nobleman, once go out into the social world in Venere? In the first place, what the hell kind of family is her Zepernell family? There was a question that never came to my mouth before, but I couldn't ask Ashley directly. Somehow, I'm avoiding that topic, because I felt that way.

Today's appointment, between the morning and after noon, Lapitilica is scheduled for training. Call a lecturer from the Magician's Guild in Varga to practice the magic of seating and practice at the Western Knights of Varga training ground outside the castle.

Lapitilica said she is now 17 years old, she was given a great achievement called a labyrinth crusade and was able to complete her training once and for all, but her abilities still grow. In order to spin a better blood line of magic as a magic guide nobleman, we will never be on the battlefield in the future, but our daily efforts as women, as nobles, and as magicians will be required.

Looking sideways at Lapitilica's training demons like that, I was touring the perimeter of the bungalow building of the training station where I was studying, and then also watching the Knights training outside in the exercise area.

This soldier's outfit is dominated by melee fights, which CQC (melee fights) should be activated for a handheld melee weapon if it becomes a battle with a knight like them? What about a mix of knights and magicians? I was on patrol guard thinking about that.

"A mock fight?

"Yes, the Mage Guild Branch Manager who came to the lecturer asked me to show him a simulation of how much black-sided shaft he could do, including a mix of the Knights and Mages Guild Mages, which would also be Lapitirica's viewing archery..."

I wonder if Lapitirica and Ashley and the others have come out for the hands-on training demons, this is it...
