29 – Call Scene 029#
*
“Oh, how are you… ?”
“Whoops… It suits you well too.”
Wendy blushed shyly.
The dress she was wearing was a casual dress appropriate for her age.
She is holding the hem of her skirt with one hand, as if the fluttering skirt is awkward.
It all looked lovely in Bella’s eyes.
‘How… I want to have her as an attendant in my house right now.’
Where the hell did such a cute kid come from?
The smile on my lips won’t leave
“That’ll satisfy even the Count. Even in private, the Count values appearance and face. So, if Miss Wendy is his exclusive, she should have at least one pretty set of plain clothes like this.”
“Is that so… ? Ehehehe… .”
A naive, untainted smile bloomed on Wendy’s face.
How can this kid make such a face?
Even when Bella first saw Wendy, she seemed like the world’s most unhappy girl.
A girl who seems too weak to be an attendant of the notorious Ruelberta family.
The fact that she became Count Tristan’s exclusive maid came as quite a surprise.
He didn’t have an exclusive in the first place, and no one had any intention of becoming his dirty-tempered exclusive.
‘I definitely thought the count was going to bully this innocent kid… .’
A faint hint of happiness settled on Wendy’s face.
Because she was looking in the mirror with a face that a bullied person could never build.
Bella thought.
The Count has changed something.
It seemed that she knew nothing but money, and not the ruthless Tristan.
The engagement he insisted on was also broken off with ease.
At the same time, his obsession with Bella disappeared.
No, it was completely ignored.
Bella was annoyed by that.
“Princess. Gwa, are you okay..?”
“Yes?”
Wendy was looking up at her worriedly.
What kind of expression was he making until just now?
Bella hurriedly corrected her expression.
“Ahh… sorry. Thinking about something else for a second.”
“Everything, I’m glad…” But Princess… .”
“Yes?”
“Bae, what kind of person was the Count in the past… ?”
It was an unexpected question.
Bella’s eyebrows rose slightly.
“What kind of person was he… ?”
“oh? that, that’s it… The Princess was engaged to the Count not too long ago… I think you know the Count well… .”
“Ah, what… Yes. First of all, we’ve known each other for a long time. It’s been over 10 years, if you have to.”
“Ten, ten years, oh… ?”
“Yes. If I go back to that time, I would like to slap and warn the me at the time. You shouldn’t even be interested in such a person.”
Even before she gained weight, Tristan had a charm that caught the attention of the noble children around her.
Actually he was a handsome boy.
Not one or two girls were fascinated by the strangely tired look and the decadent eyes.
And Bella was one of those girls.
It was a past I wanted to erase.
“what… It’s probably no different from what Miss Wendy knows. Even then, the Count was an arrogant and unlucky man. If I hadn’t played with you, you wouldn’t have been able to make a single friend.”
“Then the princess is friends with the count?”
“Yes!? What-!”
Bella then realized what she had just said.
Because Wendy’s eyes were too bright as she waited for an answer.
In the end, she had to reluctantly admit it.
“Sigh… okay. He was a friend. But now I’m not in any relationship.”
“friend… I see… .”
Wendy nodded slowly.
Embarrassed, Bella decided to change the subject.
“Hmm. But those clothes are fine, how about buying them?”
“Yes? That, but… .”
“You’re not going empty-handed anyway, are you? Besides, I’m spending the count’s money, so I’m going to waste it.”
“Yeah, but… .”
Wendy glanced at the price tag and shook her head desperately.
“Yeah, it’s too much… .”
“How are you? … 5, 50 million kaels?! In one piece… ! Suck!”
Bella, who involuntarily made a loud noise, covered her mouth.
But even that was short-lived, the daughter of the Duke of Isaac Hell said with an undisturbed expression.
“What… It can be because Luelcia is a luxury product. Maybe cheaper? Whoops… I would like to buy one if there is one in the right size. But won’t it?”
“Of course, other sizes are available. Lady Gong.”
“Well?!”
When Bella looked back, Luelcia’s staff was smiling.
He had recognized Princess Bella.
“Or how about this outfit? It will definitely suit the princess.”
“That, that… I am… .”
It was then.
Wendy raised her hand and shouted.
“Hey, hey! I’ll buy these clothes… !”
“Yes… ?”
The staff’s eyes scanned Wendy up and down.
“I’m sorry… Do you have enough guest funds? All of Luelcia’s products are expensive, but… .”
what?
It was Bella who was furious at those words.
“Wait, what kind of disrespect are you doing to a guest? This kid is-”
“Even if it’s money, I have it!”
What Wendy pulled out was a card that glowed purple.
The expression on the employee’s face when he saw it became subtle.
“Card… ? Do you belong to a family by any chance?”
It was a card made with advanced magic technology.
It was the first time I had ever seen Bella in real life.
Because it was a rare item that only a few wealthy families had.
It was probably paying for things with that instead of bills.
‘Oh my God, how much is that… .’
What surprised Bella was the value the card had.
Magic that must have cost at least a billion units.
Is it so easy for the Ruelberta family to enjoy the latest magic technology… .
Bella shuddered inwardly with envy.
“Yes? Yes… He said that with this, the Count would be able to buy clothes… .”
“Count… What?”
The employee received a purple card from Wendy.
And the expression of the employee who read the name of the family and owner written on the card turned white.
“Sir, excuse me!”
“Yes?”
Before Wendy could catch up, the employee ran somewhere.
The two people left were just standing in a daze.
But that didn’t take long either.
A man in a neat suit strode forward from the direction where the employee had disappeared.
He greeted me in a very polite way.
“My name is Eugene, the manager of Luelcia headquarters.”
But suddenly he got down on one knee in front of Wendy.
“Eh?!”
“I think our staff made a big mistake. I’m really sorry. my big shame. As the manager, I apologize on behalf of you.”
“Yes? I-I’m fine… .”
Why are you overreacting like this?
Bella tilted her head.
“I checked the card myself. You can take the goods right away.”
“Ah, did it count… ? thank you ah… .”
Wendy bowed her head.
The manager who saw that shook his hand and said.
“Nope. Could it be that We, Luelcia, belong to the Ruelberta family. If you want something, just take it.”
“Yeah?!”
“yes?!”
Their mouths, once opened, never closed.

“Ugh… .”
At that time, Lucy Meikahel was sitting on her throne, twisting her body.
Today was a boring routine of just sitting still and nodding.
But it was a difficult time for Lucy.
It was because I felt as if I would suffocate under the title of Empress of the Meikahel Empire.
“I want to quit now… .”
Lucy whimpered.
But no one listened to her pleas.
If Marco had been there, he would have said that it was absurd.
And I would have poured a bowl of nagging.
“It hurts… … . Why should I be in the emperor’s seat… .”
Lucy buried her face in her lap.
I knew.
That she would never become the emperor’s vessel.
And that she lacks the ability to rule this country.
Lucy took off her golden deer mask.
What was revealed there was the face of a girl who was trembling as if she was not confident.
“Boo… … Time, please pass by quickly. please… .”
Time is running out.
Sooner or later ‘she’ will wake up.
Lucy stared at the gloves on the shelf.
I hoped that nothing would happen until then.
Because I didn’t want to deal with this alone.
beep-!
“Hey!?”
Lucy leaped from her throne.
It was the sound from behind the throne.
“Who, who are you… ?”
She trembled and looked behind the throne.
But nobody was there.
What was there was a small stone that could be held in one hand.
It was a magic pager made for emergency contact.
Although it is old-fashioned, it is impossible to wiretap it, so it is quite useful.
However, the pager was dimly lit.
notification came.
If you see it glowing red, it’s probably Marco.
“Ooh ooh… .”
I didn’t want to check it, but I couldn’t help but check it.
Otherwise ‘she’ will be angry.
Lucy reluctantly read the message on the pager.
It didn’t take long for her expression to turn blue.
-your majesty. It’s an emergency.
– Is it okay if I intervene?
