46 – Social gathering (1).

As soon as the dance was over, she suddenly hugged me.

“Adylune?”

I looked at Adilun, wondering what the hell was going on, and she was asleep with her eyes gently closed.

A girl who needs a lot of hands in many ways, indeed.

I wrapped Adilon in my coat and held her in my arms.

I put on the shoes I had taken off and got out of the garden, and headed straight to Adirun’s room. Perhaps the banquet was soon over, and the inside of the castle was quiet.

“Um… … .”

The moonlight seeping through the small windows in the castle illuminates her face in the dark. Sleeping peacefully is so beautiful.

That’s how we arrived in front of Adilun’s room.

I opened the door, put her on the bed, and covered her with a blanket.

Then, while taking care of her sleeping figure, I sat down on the chair that I had left beside me and looked around for a while, then I stroked her hair and immediately left the room.

Many thoughts are complicatedly mixed. What should I do in the future, how should I treat her… … thoughts like that.

However, all those thoughts eventually boil down to a single thought.

All for Adirun’s happiness.

* * *

My head is spinning and heavy.

“eww… … .”

I let out an uncontrolled moan and clutched my head. The bright morning sun beating down on it.

The eyes that had been opened were closed again by the intrusion of the sunlight, and at the same time, the eyes blinked to open them and finally came into focus.

The appearance of the bedroom came in at a glance, albeit in a blur.

Why am I in the bedroom? Yesterday, I must have been eating something at the banquet celebrating my shedding… … ?

Spinning her hair, she recalled the memories of yesterday. What happened?

Reflecting on my thoughts, I recall the scenes of yesterday one by one. The banquet, the drink I drank in a good mood, and after that, like a hazy fog, there were gaps in my memory here and there.

but… … The more I recalled the memory, the more my face turned red.

‘Because it’s mean.’

‘hug me!’

‘Eh?’

‘Dance with me.’

As the memories passed one by one, I had no choice but to pull the blanket over my head and scream.

“aaa… … .”

what the hell did you do No matter how drunk I was, my obsession with Physis started hitting my head in an instant.

The heat rushed to my face from embarrassment, and even that wasn’t enough, so I had no choice but to kick the blanket.

this idiot Why the hell did you show him that?

I wanted to erase the memory of that time, but the memory came back to me even more vividly, from what I said at that time, to what Phishes said, to what he did, everything began to come back vividly.

The scent I smelled when I held him still seemed to linger in my nose. From hugging his neck, smiling and dancing barefoot in the garden.

“Ahh… … .”

I didn’t know the shame would go away, but the opposite joy also started to fill up inside me.

Even though I complained about the things he said in the past, he apologized to me for his mistake at that time and even gave me an assurance that it would never happen. He was always kind to me when I was drunk and cared for me.

How captivating was his soft smile when he danced with me. In an instant, my heart was beating fast.

It was so funny that I couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Maybe that’s why I fall for him first before 8 months have passed.

But if I fall for him before the promised period of time, I won’t show it. And… … The day he keeps his promise, then the confidence in me will lead me.

If it was long, it was long, if it was short, it was a short period… … Somehow, I started waiting for that time.

How will my relationship with him change at that time?

Just as I was about to get out of my thoughts, I heard a knock on the door.

“miss. This is Mina. May I come in?”

“come in.”

Mina opened the door and brought honey water along with a simple breakfast.

“Honey water?”

“Yeah. Lord Physis said so. The lady is going to suffer from a hangover, so she said it would be better to drink some honey water.”

“aha… … .”

“Did you have a good time yesterday?”

“yes?”

“Some people say they saw Sir Physis taking away a drunken lady yesterday. Couldn’t it be that you did something stupid?”

“Oh, no. I just danced.”

“aha. Anyway, rest a little longer, and call me if there is anything you want me to do.”

“yes. Thanks, Mina. By the way, if you ever meet Phishes, would you ask her to come to your room?”

“All right. Oh, then… … Let’s start with a simple makeup. I will call the maids.”

“yes.”

As soon as Mina finished her words, she called several maids to dress up.

In the meantime, I had been feeling reluctance to dress up because of my scales, but whenever I saw my face with the scales peeling off, I naturally wanted to dress up, so I did not refuse Mina’s proposal.

Of course, it took quite a while to dress up, but… … The results that came out were unbelievable.

“Uh, um. I am not like me.”

“You are so beautiful.”

The maids began to exclaim at my foolish laugh, saying that the dress was so well done.

“If this is the case, won’t Sir Physis go over at once?”

“It wasn’t designed for that purpose.”

“Whoops. How do you feel when you see a changed version of yourself?”

“Do you like it. really.”

“That’s fortunate. miss. You have to get used to it by now. There is a social gathering soon.”

“yes.”

“Then, we will go away. Sir Physis, I will tell you, I hope you have a good time.”

“thanks.”

As usual, when I was resting after a battle with the knights, I saw a maid with light blonde hair approaching me. It was Mina.

“mina? What happened?”

“My lady is looking for the sutra.”

“I get it.”

“Ah, sir.”

“yes?”

“Don’t be too surprised.”

I couldn’t understand Mina’s sudden words.

“What do you mean not to be surprised?”

“You will know when you see it.”

“Well… … I’ll get it right now.”

By the way, it’s a call from Adilun. Are you okay with a hangover? It must be quite difficult since I’m not in the habit of drinking often, but wouldn’t it be better to take a break… … Thinking of such things, I stood in front of Adilun’s room.

Knock on the door.

“Adilun, may I come in?”

“Come on in.”

The tip of the horse trembles a little.

When you open the door, what you see is plain makeup, but nonetheless, Adirun’s natural charm is very well preserved. It looked much better than excessive makeup, so I unknowingly spit out admiration.

“Wow.”

Was this what Mina had been expecting?

“How is that?”

“It really suits you.”

“You just say that you look good together.”

As I sincerely admired it, Adilun turned the side of his head round and round and asked calmly. I guess it was to hide the shame.

“hahahaha, originally I have poor expressiveness. Seeing as I never had a history of admiring someone else’s face in the first place.”

I guess those words were the decisive blow. Adilun’s face began to turn red. Even when there were scales, the color of the scales was bluish-white, so there were frequent scenes of them being stained red, but when the scales came off at all, the redness of the face could be seen in real time.

“Well, if you suddenly say that… … Thanks anyway.”

“What did you call me for anyway?”

“That… … I would like to apologize for yesterday’s rudeness. And I think we should talk about the social gathering.”

“Are you ugly?”

“Yes, that… … You just bit off your hand.”

“Oh, you mean that? Fine. It could be if you’re drunk. Rather, I was quite good. Seeing all of Adilun’s cute side.”

“eww… … .”

Adilun lowered his head and only blushed. Seeing as I remembered what I did yesterday, I must have kicked off the duvet quite a bit as soon as I woke up.

“Anyway, I’m really sorry. It’s my first time drinking… … .”

“I was really good, rather good. I’ve never seen you smile so brightly.”

“uh… … Did you?”

“Yeah. He puts his arm around my neck and smiles very brightly… … .”

“Ah! stop! Stop talking!”

Adilun, whose face had turned completely red and was about to explode, waved his hand and began to struggle to cover my mouth.

Later, you can play more with this topic. I laughed and teased Adilun ever since, and I stopped teasing her with her pleas to stop.

“Well, anyway, I’ll explain in earnest about the social gathering. Didn’t you say that a social gathering was held at the Daevarton family last time?”

“Yeah. I remember.”

“Anyway, regarding this social gathering, there will be a lot of people who hate me a little bit. Apparently, there are some people who are jealous of my position. Perhaps because of that, there are some people who have been spreading all sorts of bad rumors about me behind my back… … Physis? What’s wrong with your expression all of a sudden?”

It was a story I already knew, but hearing it directly from her mouth really calmed me down.

I opened my eyes and asked her.

“… … Who is that?”

“Uh, um. At that time, I punished you, so there is no need for you to come forward. Moreover, my scales fell off this time too, right?”

“Yeah.”

“Then I want to make it more efficient to break their tantrums. In fact, that is the reason why I am attending this social gathering. To find my allies, and to stamp out those who show hostility to me. So… … Physis. I have a favor.”

“What is your request?”

“Would you like to do some acting with me?”

Adilun, along with those words, painted a mischievous smile on his lips like a child.
