Chapter 11: Want to Eat Cake

Chapter 11 – Want to Eat Cake

No matter how evil the face William makes, without hesitation, Joshua introduced the girl who holds the thick book.

Lady Marina, who is 6-year-old or the youngest in today’s tea party, has light pink hair and pink eyes, which is unusual around here.

“What’s that book you’re holding?”

When William spoke out, maybe because she is not a timid person, she briskly answers.

“This is, you know, a book about magicians. Has William-sama ever met a magician?”

It looks like a book from that magician series that’s popular with kids.

“A magician? I don’t know anyone like that... What’s in it?”

“Ano ne, ano ne,“

(T/N: The closest meaning is ‘hey listen listen’ or ‘well you know, you know’. But I just want to keep that cutesy sound.)

・・・

The girl is engrossed in the story of her favorite book.

“Umm... William-sama, could you quickly tell me?”

Joshua, who wants to pull Emma away as soon as possible, doesn’t mind the mood.

“Aah... Oh, that’s right! Would you like a cake, Lady Marina? Our cake here is superb!”

“Emma-sama doesn’t wear jewelry very much, do you! When is your birthday? Let me gift it to you!”

“Fufufu”

Being surrounded by boys around the age of my friends’ children in my previous life, I certainly am popular, but Minato (an adult) is thinking, “these children must be told by their parents to do their best to talk to me, huh.” That’s when a large number of cakes move in front of my eyes.

Joshua and George are carrying plates of cake on both hands.

Joshua keeps glancing at me with an anxious look.

...is Joshua’s cake heavier because he is feeble, unlike George?

To have that much cake... Joshua, you like sweets that much?

Moreover, he has all of the kinds!

“Joshua! Those cakes look heavy! Let me carry half! (That’s why let me have a bite each)”

Just like that, Emma went to William’s table alongside Joshua with Joshua’s long-cherished angel smile on her face.

“Ahh, Miss Emma...”

“Who is that boy!”

“He is not a noble, right”

“Even though we’re getting to the good part...”

In exchange for an angel smile, he makes so many enemies... But that’s another story.
