Chapter 10 Part2 (2/2)

Anyone could clearly see that Alicia had no seals.

It was a method mainly used within n.o.bility and those who placed importance on their social status. Moreover, her bewilderment when she was given the tools and even trying to use it by shaking the seal.

Everyone who saw that could judge that Alicia had no seal.

But Mary was sure.

Because she knew.

‘Alicia has seals. Her crest…the real family crest should be engraved'.

In the later part of DoraGaku, it was an event to enter the story final phase.

It was the only thing Alicia had when she was entrusted to the orphanage. On the contrary, when the official investigates the crest, she turned out to be the missing princess.

In the game, it was not Mary who triggered the event but in this case,  it couldn't be helped. Besides, it wasn't going according to the game so far.

–And saying it didn't go according to game was already pus.h.i.+ng it–

The point was that Alicia should be determined to be a royal family.  And if that fact was discovered because of Mary, wouldn't the irony be better than the game.

Alicia tilted her head curiously at Mary who smiled so confidently.

And after staring at Mary and the seal with wonder, with an “Ah! ” Alicia seemed to remember something and rummaged through her bag.

And took out a small pouch. The pouch made from cloth looked worn out, but instead of being embara.s.sed by it, she spoke of it happily, “Auntie made it for me,” and the thing she pulled out from the bag was…

”Alicichan, that is…”

“This is something I had on me when I was left on the orphanage. I always bring it with me as a protective charm, but this is a seal, right.”

With a happy smile, Alicia stroke the seal in her hand gently.

On the other hand, Addie gave a puzzled look because he knew Alicia's real ident.i.ty. If she was the princess, the seal would be engraved with royal seal, and that could be the start of the Albert's family downfall.

And there was the Secretariat officer who didn't know anything, and probably didn't even have any idea, only glanced over them before returning to work.

With an expression that said, ‘Your own seal or school seal, whatever, just be done with it.'

“Uhm, just slosh, and then squish it… and bam, right.”

While repeating what Mary said, Alicia gingerly dripped the candle wax onto the envelope. Plop…the dripping red wax fell slowly and made a clump as if to harden the envelope.

And aiming at it, she pressed the seal gently. The seal sunk gently into the wax, and when she pulled it, the wax was clearly engraved with pattern.

Moon and Sun.

The people in this country would never mistake it, it was the pattern that can only be used by royalty.

“Eh, this is… “

Staring at the seal-wax, Alicia tilted her head.

But, before she came to realization, the officer peered out from the window.

“Finished? “

“Oh, Yes! I'm sorry for the wait! “

The previous question was blown off by the officer who couldn't read the atmopshere, and Alicia raised her gaze from the envelope and handed it over with carefree voice, just like a child who wanted to show off her drawing.

The envelope engraved with Moon and Sun pattern. The people in this country, and especially an officer in Carelia Academy would recognize it, the Royal Family pattern.

The face of the officer when she saw the envelope, and when she sent the Secretariat Office into a panic, only Mary alone who calmly said,

“What a farce.”

and snorted.
