Ch40 Visitors Again
The first tea party ended successfully,
“Another time please by all means come to my house!!”
With these unaniood humour
At once the feeling ofco up I am allowed to hurriedly retire to my room
I a into the soft and comfortable couch
“When did I end up beco a neat and sweet, madam~?!”
I writhe in erip a nearby cushi+on close
“Well, MistressThat is not incorrect,” Mi, with a smile
“How can I have the nerve to participate in parties and the like in high society any a shut-in again like I have until now!”
My face is buried in the cushi+on,out
“However it seems that will be difficult,”Dahlia says to such a racious, what could be difficult? I lift my face from the cushi+on and blink several tis
“Why?”
“YesParty and tea party invitations will steadily be delivered more than recently”
What
“NO~~~~~!!!!”
I thought it would be the reverseIn contrast to reatly perplexed Dahlia states the truth with a faint smile
“It seeh society has risen rapidly, since the evening party the other dayNot just because of that awakening of the Duke’s,very praised……”
What
“NO~~~~~!!!!”
Please do not say any a out-of-body experience!
I cover my face with a cushi+on and, cover my earsPlease do not speak of the dark history in front of everybody?!
“There there, MistressIt is not necessary to participate in all of them”
“Really?”
Dahlia says with a gentle tone of voice and rubs reatly disturbed
“YesBecause not all of theood intentionsIn exchange with even just a friendshi+p with Physalis you gain prestige in society so, there are also fa for that”
She is speaking with a gentle tone but, the contents of what she is saying are frightening
Scary! High society is scary! Until now because I was a declining aristocrat, I was coh society so it was quietFor the super first-class there are super first-class hardshi+ps
Despite being on the couch, I unintentionally slide back and my cheeks twitch
“Mistress you do not have to be so worried! Because it will be properly dealt with by Lotus and I,”she says with a dazzling s the behind the scenes of high societyTo the side of Dahlia, Mi in a similar way
What will be dealt with how? ……no, I cannot interfere with nice s faces of Dahlia and Mi wicked s faces!
“……thanksI will rely on you”
Aah, I will be protected by everyone!
In themaids turns up to notify of the Duke’s return home
“Excuse me MistressThe Duke has returned”
“Aah, is it already that time?”
“Aah, is it already that time?”
It is not the situation to be struggling with such things as the scary high society and my dark historyToday I had a tea party so as such I a on the couch so et up fro the wrinkled dress when,
“Umm~Still more… there are visitors……”
The maid hesitantly advises with upturned eyes
“Oh, who is it?” Dahlia asks the maid with her usual stern head-maid face,
“They are the Duke’s coworkers”, The maid returns to her normal serious work face and answers
“Coworkers… so that
“That is rightThey are from the special duty division”
“Oh~! We have to hurry at once……thanks, Mio”
Mimosa rapidly fixes me up as far as makeup, and I hurry to the entrance wayHowever what is this? It is the first tiht friends over
“Welcome home, Duke!”
I go towards the entrance way in a half run
As always the Duke is talking with Lotus but, today,
“hello~ Madam!!”
“Excuse us for disturbing you~!”
“Wa! She is really a pretty person!”
“Uo~, she genuinely is~!”
“She is a dreamlike Madame~!!”
“Kyaa~, she is a beautiful person~!!”
“Kyaa~, she is a beautiful person~!!”

I a when,
“Hey!! Do not swarm Viola!”
Saying this the Duke pulls me towards himself bynet
HoI’m saved
“Wel… welcome back Duke! This is also very well-attended……”
I say welco up at his nearby beautiful face mixed with a wry smile,
“I aThey said they must come no matter what and would not listen…… They are my subordinates from the special duty division”
The Duke is weary
“Oh, is that so? Then weout over the faces of the knights and, everyone’s whole face is s of being looked at with judgy eyes, is ht?
“No, it is okay to give theazes with half-open-eyes at the these knights
