Now then, today is the day to visit Earl Dranbalt This time, it’s different coley’s house, and various other people have been invited …And because of that, I am really nervous

“Iris-chan, you’ll be fine so you don’t have to worry so ether withI am really reassured The next House I am to visit next is Baron Messi’s House, so I want to take this opportunity to regain my senses

When we arrived and Earl Dranbalt’s House, a servant careet us at the door And then, a uided us The place we arrive at was a beautiful courtyard filled with greeneries

“Welco Lady Mellice, Iris-sa at the center table stood up and caolden hair that seeh her figure was a little round, she seeentle and cheerful… She was Earl Dranbalt’s wife, Countess Dranbalt

“Thank you for sending an invitation for today’s event Together withforward to it”

Mother responded with a formal tone No matter how close mother is with Countess Dranbalt, she wouldn’t act out of order because there were others around

“Oh,like that, I’m very honored Please, come in and have a seat”

When Countess Dranbalt said that, she pointed us to vacant place Aby near us

“Then, I shall accept your offer”

And then, we respectively headed to our vacant seats

The garden ell-kept and overfloith greenery And the tables were arranged opposite of it, giving it the best view of the surroundings What is stood out, even ht yellow, light blue… Everyone earing pastel colors Perhaps they each person was to represent a flower and were seated in that order as well I see, the reason why the dress code — wear pastel colors — was specified on the invitation was to aim for this outcome

“I shall make the introduction This is Lady Remedy, Earl Caldina’s wife”

“Please treaton the left side of Countess Dranbalt saw htly lowered my head

“This here is Lady Dora Danas, Earl Danas’ wife”

“I have been looking forward toLady Mellice and Iris-sama”

The lady beside Lady Rehtly And I, too, like a bobblehead doll, bowed ain

“And then, this lady over here is Salina Mines, Baron Mines’ wife”

“I am honored to meet you”

…With that, all the introductions were done To be honest, it was getting hard for me to put faces to their names… so I was thankful that it ended

And then, the tea party began I ate some of the sweets placed on the table and drank the tea that was served Unn, it’s delicious… Since it will be e if I cannot follow the conversation, I perked up my ears

“The clothes Iris-sama wore the other day was very beautiful From where did you purchase that dress from?”

Lady Dora suddenly asked that question

“I used the cloth obtained froathered enough materials, but e do, it will be sold in earnest”

“Oh, so that’s how it is Although the fabric onderful, the design of the dress was also unique and lovely Where did the design of that dress come from…?”

“I asked a tailor shop from the Duke of Amerlia’s fief to ned by Iris-saned the dress is a little… I thought sohly explained what I wanted”

I can’t say that it was because I wanted so easy toclothes and dresses that’s easy to wear and suitable for work, it would be difficult for ant and heavy fluttering skirts

Thanks to ner-san, a non-heavy dress was completed to my satisfaction… That’s the only way to put it

“So that’s hoas However, I think that that dress will be popular in the future Don’t you think so as well, Lady Rearnered a lot of attention during the party Even now, I believe one to the tailor shop to order one”

…I wonder if that’s really what’s happening? I mean, if it is like that, isn’t this the chance to advertise the clothes fro about it, before I knew it, the topic of the conversation changed The current fashi+on, and the current state of each House
