Lise had to tell Mirabel about her experiences at the banquet, holding back yawns until Mirabel got tired of hearing it. She lamented that there were no recording devices in this world. "So? Who was that man?" "I told you that just a moment ago. Father's disciple." "But you didn't tell me his name." "His name was..." What was it? Ca... something, I think. This is trouble. The man said he'd ask again next time. But wait. If we don't meet next time, that's the end of it, right? Lise…

The second floor where Lilia's room was located was currently empty. Occasionally servants came and went to clean their master's room, but true to Lilia's reputation for keeping things neat and tidy, there wasn't much to clean. Lise looked around briefly to see if anyone was there and headed toward Lilia's room. But Lilia's room wasn't her goal. Her target was Cain's room on the same floor. Arriving at the small door at the end of the corridor, Lise carefully turned the doorknob and pushed inside.…

Archduke Damien Ilizer of Montaner. He was the man who had ruled the empire for ten years in place of the dead emperor and the disappeared crown prince, and though he was called an archduke, he was essentially no different from an emperor. But in one more season, he would become emperor not only in reality but also in name. This was because it was the law of the Ruzensia imperial family that an heir missing for exactly ten years would be considered dead, and the throne would automatically be…

"What? Why are they there?" Having arrived at the restaurant and finished ordering, Lise let out a bitter laugh while looking in one direction. Where her gaze landed sat a couple who were fidgeting and flustering around a single dish between them like awkward people who had never even held hands. That couple consisted of two people Lise knew well, very well. "No, I sent them to the inn to rest, so why are they in the restaurant?" Lise wanted to kick Mirabel and Jonathan and send them up to…

"No... surely not." Lise shook her head, trying to dispel the ominous thoughts. 'I should have brought a book with me.' Sitting still left her with nothing to do but think. And thinking about this and that led to complaints and lamentations. Why was she born into such a world from a book without even cell phones? She couldn't do anything. She had thought she'd return quickly, so she hadn't brought much money either. Lise emptied her pockets to count how much money she had in…

"I suppose I do look good. It's not like that though." Lise replied with an awkward smile, making excuses. "I'll escort you." He wrapped a robe around Lise's body, put on his own robe, and approached to lift Lise up again. At that moment, Lise quickly stepped back and said: "You don't need to do that anymore. I can go by myself." This time she spoke quite firmly. She felt that if she spoke softly, it wouldn't work at all. Having been rejected several times, Cain seemed to have adapted…

Well, Lise was comfortable with this too. There would be no reason for her heart to race unnecessarily. "Shall we rest for a moment?" After she had danced a complete waltz entirely with her own strength, Cain said. Since her movements were just about to become sluggish anyway, Lise nodded without hesitation. "You've gotten quite fast outside the water though." When did he see that? Well, as the person in charge of training, observing changes in the patient was a natural duty. As if there…

"You too, how can you dance if you relax your strength?" Lise asked in a deliberately cheerful tone to hide her embarrassment. Then Cain said: "At first, just follow my lead. Just feel it." Why did it feel like he was cleverly omitting the subject? Was it just her imagination that it sounded incredibly suggestive if she closed her eyes and listened with only her ears? It might be her imagination. If Cain were that kind of man, he would have fallen for her seduction attempts long…

"These clothes won't work." "Then how about this?" "Are you trying to drown me?" Lise said, rejecting every piece of clothing Mirabel brought her. But it was understandable. When she asked for clothes that wouldn't float and would stick to her body, Mirabel brought armor! Mirabel was almost in tears as she said: "Then what should we do? Apart from these, there's only underwear." "Then give me underwear." "Cough, cough!" Mirabel, who had choked, kept coughing repeatedly. Her…

"...Unsettling?" That was the first time she'd heard such a thing. Calling Lilia—kind, pure, and the typical female protagonist type from romance novels—unsettling. "You know the type. They smile in front of you but talk behind your back. I get the feeling Miss Lilia is exactly that type." "Mirabel, do you perhaps have paranoid delusions?" At Lise's words, Mirabel answered firmly. "No. But people have instincts. My instincts are quite accurate, if I do say so myself." At those words,…
