I Became a Swordsmanship Instructor in Romance Fantasy

072. Justia Banquet (11)

before the banquet begins

One by one, those who were invited entered.

Their pride showed on their faces as if having received Iriel’s invitation was recognized by Justia.

All of the nobles looked around Justia’s banquet hall, all dressed in fancy clothes and pretending to be proud.

Tables decorated with dazzling jewels and soft music,

A clean floor where it is hard to find a speck of dust.

A faint scent that was not unpleasant wafted through the air.

A luxurious red carpet is laid out on the floor as if to show off the prestige of the family.

A banquet hall filled with only the finest products.

In addition, the servants who greeted the nobles with uniformity and moderation.

Every single element was not enough to excite the hearts of the visiting nobles, to the point of overflowing.

“Ummm, the Justia family used a bit of strength this time.”

One of the neutral aristocrats weighed down by Justia’s momentum spoke.

“Yeah, didn’t the princes also come?”

“That’s something I don’t know yet. Between Joheiden and Justia, deciding to attend must not have been easy.”

“Ha, Lady Iriel personally delivered the invitation, no way.”

The pro-Justian noble shook his head as if he had no doubts.

The neutral aristocrat looked at his watch. It is still much earlier than the scheduled start time of the banquet.

However, I could already see many nobles raising their glasses and talking to each other.

“I heard that the full-scale banquet will start in two hours. Umm, so many people have already gathered. Certainly, Justia is Justia.”

“now. can we go too There’s someone over there I’d like to introduce you to.”

“hehehehe!”

The neutral aristocrat reluctantly nodded and moved his feet as if he were following.

Soy Spoon frowned as he prepared for the banquet at the bakery.

“Is it right to do this?”

That day, she had worked hard over her shoulder to learn how to make up, how to style her hair, and how to wear clothes from various experts, but she seemed to keep getting awkward because she was clumsy and inexperienced.

“sister! Open today… … !”

Just then, my younger brother, James, opened the door and came in.

I tilted my head.

“sister?”

He rubbed his eyes to see if what he saw was correct.

“sister… … .”

James calls Soyi with a serious face.

“sister. Really, are you going to go to that tail?”

“Is this weird?”

“Yeah perfectly.”

James nodded heavily.

Even though the appearance of the soy spoon is good, it looks like a child wearing makeup following his mother.

A colorfully painted face and an awkward outfit with a tight waist. and scattered hair.

The only things worth looking at were expensive trinkets such as necklaces and bracelets.

It was only natural to wear it.

“Ugh… … . oh my god.”

Soyi looked in the mirror and cried.

Even if you look at yourself, the appearance at that time did not come out at all.

A miserably funny girl was weeping along with her.

“Oh, this won’t work. For now, I’ll close the store and call my mom and older sister.”

With a puzzled expression on his face, James quickly made up his mind and went out to call his mother and Celia.

“Puff! Queue! Kyahahahahaha!”

“Poop, soy!”

“… … .”

tight.

Soi bit her lip.

Celia bursts into laughter as soon as she sees her face.

And my mother, who tried to hold back her laughter, but covered her mouth and turned her head away.

I couldn’t say I couldn’t attend the car where I was presented with various jewelry and even a dress to come to the banquet.

A must go situation.

Everyone seemed unaware of the seriousness of the current situation.

“I am so serious! oh my god. If I go on like this, I will only become a laughing stock!”

Soi shouted with a serious expression.

“Puhhhhh. cow, cow. hehehe. Gee, worry, fuhup. Do not. I’ll help you!”

“hahahaha, um, help mom too, hehehe! I’ll give.”

I heard James laughing maniacally outside.

“Seeing… … .”

On that day, after Soyi and the princesses of the duchy went out with hard faces.

Zeke asked where Soyi had gone with a serious expression.

Celia told me about the shops where Soi usually goes well.

And then things started coming into the store one by one.

Things that look expensive at first glance.

Even when I was frightened and asked what the hell this was, all I got back was the name ‘Elise’ and that I would keep it here.

Celia, her mother, and James, who watched the situation, couldn’t help but think like this.

‘Oh my gosh! It’s a gift from the instructor!’

It wasn’t that commoners didn’t feel burdened by such expensive gifts.

If you look at what Zeke has shown so far,

I would never wish to send those gifts back again.

– What should I do with this… … . If you accept too much… … . Soyi would be embarrassed.

– Lee, once the soy comes in, ask and then decide.

I thought so, but when I saw Soyi who returned to the bakery belatedly, I couldn’t help but be more excited.

They were the family members who bowed their heads, thinking that some noble lady had come to the bakery.

– Soy, soy! how… … . No, this, this is all… … .

– I’m going to sleep. do not disturb

Soyi entered the room with a serious face and pulled the blanket over herself.

– Little sister, what happened?

– Returning the gift… … .

– No, even though my daughter looks like that, she thinks deeply. Because he’s a smart kid. I wouldn’t have taken it if it was really burdensome. And if it’s not tomorrow, he’ll send it back on his own. Let’s leave it as is for now.

Since then, Soi’s expression has looked so serious.

The family did not feel comfortable asking about him.

Seeing as they didn’t return the gift, it seemed that they had decided to accept it for now.

Soyi helps decorate, and now the family has time to talk to each other.

Right now, Mom and Celia were deliberately comforting Soyi with a light tone.

Soyi took off all his clothes, washed again, and sat down in a chair.

“Soi, we can’t be like the noble lady back then.”

“Yes, my daughter. Let’s decorate properly? Everyone has their own clothes that suit them.”

Celia and her mother combed Soyi’s hair and said.

“… … Then I thought I’d notice it for no reason… … .”

Soi replied in a low voice.

“Still, the instructor will come with you too, won’t you? Ask the instructor to protect you. I saw it then. You seem to care about you quite a bit.”

Celia grinned and said with a mischievous smile.

“Oh, no, not like that!”

“No, you even gave me a gift like this, but are you still going to get away with it?”

“Um, even from the looks of it, it seemed like Mom cared for you especially. People look serious… … . And I don’t see much difference in age. How did you become an instructor?”

“All of these were given to me by the princesses.”

“yes. yes.”

So-yi answered with a grunt, but her mother and sister answered with disbelief at all.

“Soyi, what kind of person is the instructor?”

Mom asked as she applied makeup to her face.

“… … Instructor?”

‘What kind of person is the instructor?’

Soyi still couldn’t answer him well.

– I’ve been looking for it for a while.

– Yeah?

– wait a minute. stay like this for a while

He put a hand on his shoulder and looked up at him.

Dark eyes trembled as if desperately searching for something.

Like a traveler looking for water in the middle of the desert.

What was he trying to see in me?

How many times did you make eye contact with yourself?

The instructor suddenly smiled brightly.

Iriel and Serena, who were frozen by the side, bit their lips and gnashed their teeth.

– It’s the first time I’ve ever seen Gee, Zeke smile like that.

– Hey, it’s okay if you decorate it. This is different from usual… … . profit! this cliff! Because of you!!!

But Soi couldn’t hear their voices.

pounding.

pounding.

pounding.

To the point where I’m afraid he can hear his heartbeat

Because my heart beats noisily

“You’re pretty when you smile… … .”

Recalling that time, Soi muttered blankly without even realizing it.

Startle.

Mom and Celia’s hands stopped at the answer that came back after asking with a light heart.

Then they turned their heads to each other and met their eyes.

Then he nodded.

“Oh, that’s right! Soyi Then, I will make you look prettier today too.”

“Oh, just trust your mother!!”

The banquet has already begun

Majestic music flowed from Justia’s mansion.

Most of the nobles and imperial families who received the invitation finished attending.

Soy Spoon, who didn’t even know how to get a wagon, staggered in his high boots.

‘N-It’s late!’

Mother and Celia were both clumsy about putting on dresses, so it took a long time.

Mandible.

Mandible.

She drew in a breath that filled up to the tip of her chin.

The Justia mansion arrived like that.

Soyi approached the gatekeeper standing at the entrance of the banquet hall.

He found himself and winced.

“Hey, here it is.”

Soi held out the invitation with trembling hands.

Then the man who was looking at the invitation tilted his head and asked.

“Which family are you from?”

“That’s my motive for taking classes with Iriel… … .”

Soi said in a voice that seemed to be crawling and lacked confidence.

The man frowned as if her words were uncomfortable.

“How dare you, dear Iriel Justia, speak rudely? And… … . motivation… … ?”

The gatekeeper seemed to suspect that Soyi was a suspicious person.

“Oh, sorry, sorry. At the academy, we decided to speak casually with each other, so I was a little confused.”

“What class are you in?”

“It’s a swordsmanship class.”

“So, which family are you from?”

As if he was interrogating a criminal, his words of inquisitiveness were filled with suspicion.

Soyi wanted to turn her back and go home.

“… … That, stretch, flat… … .”

tight. Soi closed his eyes.

“What are you doing?”

Then, a man’s voice interrupted from behind.

A cold, low voice.

Soi turned around at the familiar voice.

A man with dark hair, sharp eyes, and a military uniform.

He had the same blunt face as always, but his brow was frowned as if he was deliberately displeased.

‘Instructor!?’

Zeke stepped forward and covered Soy with his back.

“Lady Elise is my student. I will prove that I received an invitation directly from Iriel in my class.”

Zeke took out an invitation from his bosom and held it out.

The gatekeeper accepted the invitation and opened his eyes.

“Gee, Zeke Kleiman!”

“yes. I am Zeke Kleiman. Do I have to prove which family I belong to?”

“Oh, no. I have heard of Zeke Kleiman.”

“Then, why did you do that to this young lady?”

A man breaks into a cold sweat at Zeke’s question.

“Uh, when I was a young child whose face wasn’t well known… … . ID verification… … .”

“Ha, identification. If this is going to happen, I don’t know why they gave you an invitation. Very unpleasant.”

As Zeke threatened in a low voice, the gatekeeper gulped.

“Let’s tell Iriel directly. Your invitation didn’t even guarantee your identity.”

“That, that! sorry!!! De, go in!!”

The gatekeeper froze and bowed his head.

ttubeok

Zeke walked forward with an expressionless face looking straight ahead.

Then I turned my head back.

“Elise.”

“Yes, four!?”

“Aren’t you coming?”

Zeke nodded his head in the direction of the banquet hall.

“Go, go!!”

Soi, who had a puzzled expression on his face, quickly followed Zeke.
