189 Explore each other in falsehood.

Today, I was invited to a recovered Christina's for a tea party at Viscount Deebolt's.

There will also be a desire to confuse the feelings sinking in about Miss Archet at all. The small tea party has also been invited by a young lady who was the host of that time.

I mean... Operation Decisions,.

"Dear Mabel, this is Serene speaking. We've been friends for a while now."

Miss Mabel, with scorched tea hair in her seemingly minded blue eyes, was introduced by Christina and turned her gaze to me.

Her face is a flashy impression for the price, but her makeup and dress give her a slightly soft atmosphere. Overall, something like "Lady who looks a little bit like me"?

Well, it's close enough to Christina's networking aim, so she won't be very popular.

"Nice to meet you, Master Mabel. My name is Serene Clayton."

My hair is silver and my eyes are green smiling with introduction.... I'm not haunting another phantom, I just changed colors.

My setting for the day is' Baron Clayton's Family Order Lady by the name of Serene '. I have no problem being suspected because I am a real baron family with a house for the ex-Gartier.

... I've earned the title by merit, and since then, it's a house to the point where I've earned the title. I mean, it's a totally no-mark home: the common folk in the next step.

A house like that doesn't have to know. Makes you think so and deceive...... plus it makes sense to incite Miss Mabel. I have to be neglected by her, this time.

"Clayton......? I'm sorry, I've never heard of you."

"Heh heh, nobility is all about names. Since I was originally a merchant, you are the main business. Will the title given by merit be returned one of these days?

Surprisingly, but somewhere overlooked, Miss Mabel leans her neck. I returned it calmly without appearing to be offended. For a good reason.

Miss Mabel, by contrast, was not particularly suspicious of my condition and only turned a disinterested gaze.

I guess she's a little childish or honest about her emotions. I don't care about houses that aren't poisonous or medicinal... or worse, ambitious people who use people.

But sweet. Because I don't think the act of giving information through these conversations will lead to subsequent traps.

If you expose the information on her insignificant ~ kuku home here, you will be recognized in her brain as' Serene Clayton is a merchant upstaged lady '. That's one purpose.

It's not about knowing her that matters at this tea party. Naturally, it's not about smashing it.

"Miss Mabel is going to burn a sense of confrontation!"

He won't stick with me if I'm too high, and if you think of me as being downgraded one way or the other, the success rate of the 'trap' increases.

That trap is what the Black Knights are asking for. I must create a premise just to take advantage of it.

"Master Serene is not usually here. You must have been invited by someone who's been close to you this time, right?

Christina shakes the subject as requested here. Smile as you nod at it and activate 'Trap Preparation - Part Two'.

"Yeah. You've been doing very well since I was a little girl. It's what you used to get along with in the family groom, so it's stuck sweet."

"... Oh, that's the 'brother' you asked me about before, right?

Christina in a teasing tone. In contrast, Miss Mabel, unlike earlier, is listening with interest.

... she still seems the type of person who gathers information and determines the value of the other person. I guess you're thinking about whether you can use me as a stepping stone or not.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have listened to my personal circumstances. Around sorry for being just a sorority, it's a subtly sad aristocratic situation. Information matters.

And Miss Mabel hears that with interest. Just got me interested, huh?

"Oh, you have such a thing. Is he your fiancée?

"Well, it's not that kind of relationship."

Not unnatural, Miss Mabel's inquiry...... no, exploration. Take it, and I won't appear ashamed to deny it or dislike it.

Such an appearance seems to have attracted more and more interest from Miss Mabel. A slight glance is like a hunter after his prey.

Of course, I would expose the information by pretending not to notice it.

"You admire me like a brother. At a very young age, I also spoke of promises to marry. Heh heh... even my little fathers smiled at me then"

It's a trap/'Promise at an early age' activated.

This is insurance when you are pursued for appealing to intimacy as well as not actually being your fiancée.

When he didn't succeed, he could be poked, 'I didn't say he was my fiancé, he took it personally!' Let it pass.

It's weirder to believe what an aristocratic engagement is a contract between houses, a child's word of mouth spoken of as a memory.

"Oh, Lord Serene!

"I wonder who he is? Perhaps you know me...... why don't you tell me?

I just laugh when Christina smiles. Miss Mabel is also smiling, but seems more concerned about 'who in what house' than that.

Normally, it's 'Love Bana Between Women', but there's nobility. I guess Miss Mabel is willing to go for it, depending on the target.

All right, all right, you mind staying put?

I'll come back in person later, okay? Look and be surprised......!

Much appreciated your interest as far as I'm concerned.

I'd like to spark some more interest, so I'll still let you scorch.

Your preferences have also been thoroughly investigated, and based on that, we should give you some information.

"I assume you know that, don't you? My brother is a Kingsguard knight."

"Huh......!?

Sayin 'Your brother is an elite' information changed Miss Mabel's complexion.

I'm working on it instantly, but it's a good reaction. I can't stop laughing inside at her as I expected. Great job, Black Knights!

Ugh... Miss Mabel's thinkers are Kingsguard knights. It's me who's gained value as a stepping stone at once, but that's not all.

"Please visit my house from time to time even after I became a knight. That's when I brought your friends.... Oh? Is Master Mabel admiring all the Kingsguard knights, too?

It's bait, increments. Kingsguard knight (s) are the finest bait for a nice man and a lady who wants to get close to you.

I'm friends with the 'brother' who comes out of the story, and then I know the other Kingsguard knights... and I work for the spray bait, waiting for the prey to come by.

For Miss Mabel, I would be a stepping stone, but from this one, she's the prey. Sprinkle enough bait and provoke so you don't run away.

And.

When it's worth the use, she pushes it down right after she's convinced.

Because that's the most I can do to get certified as a disturber.

The sound of a knock that sounds where Miss Mabel's interest has been maximized. When Christina gives her permission, it's the Deacon of the Deebolt family who comes in.

The timing is perfect because I've been listening to conversations so far in the next room. Demonic props are handy.

"Excuse me.... Dear Serene, are you sure you don't want me to pick you up?

To pick me up in the middle of the tea party, I leaned my neck wonderfully.

"Oh? Welcome, what?

"Suddenly, we'd like to invite you to a meal for the whole family. You're a lovely 'brother', aren't you?

Will it even come out of the engagement story? And I applaud the butler inside, adding to the smile. A gentle face and voice, but the information conveyed is entirely addressable.

Don't do it, Deacon! Do you want to join the battle trivially?

Would you further incite Miss Mabel, even though she had given an explanation of the circumstances? Can't you forgive the culprit for depressing Christina? Was it annoying?

Meanwhile, Miss Mabel is intrigued by the words of the butler. Find out who the rumor 'brother' is, and it's clear that I really want to see him for the future.

"Dear Serene, may we also say hello?

Miss Mabel stands to ask me as she involves Christina. I'm kind of scared of the butler's eyes for being stunned by that attitude.

In previous conversations, he said, 'I'm not engaged yet, but could I be your fiancée?' I'm saying something. Realizing that is a good attitude.

Are you going after yourself? Or are you willing to use it for your friend's Kingsguard?

Christina looks slightly troubled by Miss Mabel's attitude, which she doesn't even try to hide if she's interested in the person she picks up.

I didn't explicitly say, "Introduce me," so I can't praise you. I guess Miss Mabel is good at these ways.

Because you're looking down at me, so you can say 'introduce me' in a way, right? I saw with certainty that I would eat down even if I tried to refuse.

Damn, I also told Christina to 'introduce me' with a gaze from above. And quite persistent. So, doesn't it feel like Miss Archet just hit me...

"Nice, Serene."

The voice of a young man interrupting there. Including a little laughter. Besides, I looked back at my voice and made a surprised look.

Oh, did you hear the conversation because you were standing by? So he came out anticipating the timing, he said. Nori's goodness is the same.

Now let's hope to appear!

Chamon, brother! Thank you for your cooperation today!

"Dear Brother Dilk!

"Huh!?

It was Mr. Dirk, the son of the Kingsguard Knights Commander, who showed up. Not just his parents, but himself a Kingsguard knight, he...... can be Miss Mabel's 'admirer'. It is an excellent property for the family because of its countenance.

Informative is the Black Knight. Other than that, I had a lot of information explored.

Ignoring Miss Mabel, who unexpectedly looks at cancer, Mr. Dirk comes beside me. And as I laid my hands on the back of the chair I was sitting in, I tried to peek into my face.

"I'm sorry, Serene. My father and I really wanted to have dinner together. These are usually busy people, so why don't you give me a break?

"The little fathers?

I looked at Christina with sorrow and she nodded happily.

"I don't mind. Be sure to stay with me."

"Really? I'm sorry."

"Sorry, Miss Christina.... Serene, would you like to come to your brother? That way you can see her any time you want, and me and your dad are welcome, right?

Mr. Dirk says something meaningful as he holds my shoulder to apologize and stand up.

... Oh, Miss Mabel will be staring at you. You know that, Mr. Dirk.

"Oh... that looks great on you"

Christina's backup shooting like that from the bottom of my heart. Mr. Dirk nods, but deliberately flaunts his shoulder.

"Right? When I was a kid, you said," I'm going to be Brother Dirk's wife, "but I'm refreshed these days."

"Ugh! When I was young, I didn't know where I was!

"Am I welcome? What do you say we kneel down at the next nightclub and sign up for marriage?

Mr. Dirk is in excellent condition, activating the trap in good order.

It should be noted that incitement in this conversation is almost at Mr. Dirk's request.

Magical and Incitement Plan

· Make an appeal to get to know Kingsguard whenever possible, and keep it interesting. Smell something candidate for fiance here.

-If you're interested, Mr. Dirk appears. 'My family, on the other hand, welcomes her,' he said, inciting me to let Miss Mabel certify me as a disturber.

If possible, I should add that I don't have time to get engaged.

-Maybel's intent to kill me. Interruptor = Being who wants you to disappear, it is possible to carry out a kidnapping.

This time it's like this. To Miss Mabel: 'That woman's in the way!' That's what it seems like.

If the possibility of complicity with the kidnapper is to be established, Miss Mabel has been successful once and for all. It's only natural to think that once more than once...

Besides, we haven't solved the kidnapping yet. We don't even think we're suspected because we don't have any evidence.

If you have that sense of crisis, you can't even attend this tea party hosted by Christina. Because Christina knows that the contact between herself and Miss Archet is not favorable.

No, is it possible that even if there was a sense of crisis, you didn't take it so seriously? If it is true that her house has not directly abducted......

But the situation isn't so sweet as to allow it.

It is not a good idea for kidnapping to prolong any longer. If so, let's move ahead with the results, even if it's called an outer road.

That's why I asked the Black Knights.... a little out-of-town 'please'.

'Who is the thinker of the suspect's noble lady, and most importantly, the thinker's information!

'Firstly, the presence or absence of a fiancée. Next, will you follow this request in the family circle? Of course you have a strong mouth, but it's a must have more than having to go with the farce'

'Above all, here's the only breakthrough at the moment. That's why!

"Make sure her thinkers, on the contrary, have the weakness to be able to blackmail that family, at the end of the day, the clan romantic party! We need you to stay a collaborator until the operation is complete, we will never betray you... No, we need to leave you in a situation where you cannot betray us!

"Isn't nobility about identity? I'm a civilian, so I might be able to take a lighter look at the situation, and I have trouble exposing myself as a demon mentor. '

"Therefore, if you unfortunately become a collaborator, you will be prepared to try about [if you make a mistake, there will be no later]"

I've asked you to do this. Of course, I was stunned.

What you have examined is information about Miss Mabel's thinkers, and their thinkers. If I had a fiancée, this measure wouldn't make it, and I'd be in trouble if I didn't make sure you were on this side.

If I add, it's a problem even for people like me to lend this time. The upper echelons of the country may still be fine, but Miss Mabel is a baroness...... there was a possibility that someone with a different status would stop admiring her.

In other words, if you consider yourself a married person, the barons and the Viscounts are reasonable. Highly desired, the Count's house.

If she thinks realistically, thinkers = people who want to marry. Admiration is nothing but admiration. Choose the one who is more certain than dreaming.

Therefore, I asked you to be stupid and honest with me, 'Grip the weakness of the thinker'. There's like Viscount Grandkin, there's no guarantee that her thinkers are decent.

Then wouldn't it be certain if you held one or two of your weaknesses even in the sense of insurance?

Is blackmail a crime?... No, it is the duty of the nobility to work for the country. No problem. If you have any complaints, tell the demon king I gave you permission.

Well, I ended up worried when the thinker turned out to be Mr. Dirk.

"Hehe... you're close as I was asking. Come on, don't keep your future family waiting."

That's what Christina urges us to do. I can feel it because I have to get Christina to work hard in the future, but I can't say that either.

Christina understood everything and took on the role of circulating my information to Miss Mabel. She is the only one who can stream the information presented in advance in the form of a 'conversation at a tea party'.

Now if you'll excuse me.

We meet lightly, and I leave the room with Mr. Dirk. In order to create a sighting - and the witness is also a collaborator here - we really need to get to the captain's hall.

"... yeah, you were a pretty obvious kid"

Don't get in the carriage, Mr. Dirk shared his thoughts. Obviously...... Yeah, Miss Mabel was easy to understand.

However, it is also true that it was designed to be so. This makes her and her house more sinful. Even if we know that, we... I choose to solve the case.

"Christina should be able to get the information out later. Hopefully..."

"You mean you'll be invited to her house. And you thought about it, huh? If you're not the daughter of the Knights Commander, but" a being who could be a family, "you're only going to guide someone you know more than you are."

"Mr. Commander, it's a matter of personal emotion. If the purpose is Irfena, the presence of spiritual damage to its defense is worth being a hostage. You can also interpret Mr. Dirk's fiancée as a candidate for capture."

Because he is the son of the Knights Commander, he could also conceal his fiancée to avoid danger......

If the purpose is Irfena, they'll come for it. How distressing is it to distress the captain of the regiment, such as the fact that being close to yourself causes the presence that might make her a daughter to be caught?

I feel guilty about the incident I caused because I'm a fine person. It is the opposite idea to the perception that 'I will not be caught for fear that I will be taken care of if I am the leader's daughter'.

If you're related, you can give up, but this time it's someone close to you.

"... makes it easier to get caught in that sense, too, huh? On the other hand, that means Mizuki's in danger, right?

"I'm ready."

affirm by nodding, smiling at Mr. Dirk, who seems worried. Though I may not get to the mastermind any more than I have a brain-labourer over there.

- Because you're not willing to lose.
