ELIZA CHAPTER 75 – TOWNHOUSE
The rocky, clattering horse-drawn carriage took two days to finally arrive at its destination In the outer quarters in the royal capital, separated frole fence, we stopped at a timeworn small townhouse It was much shorter than the two story mansion that I live in, and I barely even need to lift my head to look up
“We’re here……”
A sigh slipped out from Earl Terejia Then, he looked at me
“You, is this really fine?”
“It’s just a place to stay at while we’re in the royal capital anyways”
The earl shrugged, and looked back at the townhouse distastefully This townhouse is the first thing that I’ve ever bought for , it was also a bit small and narrow
After the battle at Fort Jugfena, although dealing with the aftermath of that battle was finally over, I’o between my domain and the royal capital quite often Since the House of Lords has regularsocial season at the royal capital Most nobles with their own domains also have ood opportunity to deepen my network of contacts
Especially froather many people, such as social debuts for newcomers, dance balls, and church festivals
Of course, although Earl Terejia is already a very experienced court aristocrat, I haven’t even reached adult age yet, let alone made my social debut, so it should still be about a decade before those social events have anything to do with me
……Although that’s how it should have been, contrary to all that there was actually a mountain of invitations from various nobles piled up back home in the domain lord’s office The reason was siet acquainted with otiations
Because of the four eastern dukedo to become the Rindarl Union, and the unprovoked attack froainst them Of course, domestic attention was also on the eastern dofena, and Genas
The House of Lords was giving these three domains extra financial support, but now the systeanized, as so to have some of that money returned
Since there was so much attention on our dofena and Genas, as well as Kaldia, for being the country’s first line of defense Due to all the military equipe nuoods that the new citizens would need, that’s why so many nobles have all sent me their invitations
In short, every domain wants new trade opportunities
Although it was a bit of a superfluous rule, in Arxia there’s a custoe yet shouldn’t attend social events other than ones that they’re hosting, as a matter of etiquette However, because I’m a domain lord before I’ sent my way Usually, it would be the reverse, where someone is a child before they’re a noble
……Because of my circu s every day It’s actually a bit hard on le word of complaint I don’t have anyone to complain to anyways
So that I don’t always have to stay at Earl Terejia’s place whenever I visit the royal capital, I bought this tiny house on the very outskirts of the noble area
It does seem to be rather decayed, but well, because I don’t have to stay here for very long each time, it doesn’t matter I don’t care about the outside, I’ve already had the interior fixed up
I sank myself into a non brand name, cheap, yet still well made sofa, and I looked at the exposed red bricks and wood that see of warmth to the plaster walls, I think I like it
“Elise, give ht and tomorrow”
“Uh, ……ah Tonight, you’re organizing docu the day…… The tailor is co, urave Molton’s party”
When I pestered Ratoka who had been forced to stand besidetohis he needed to know to attend to me
I mostly intended to make Ratoka into a personal maid, rather than a personal attendant, but if he kno to dothis does seem to have added to his dislike of otten more informal between us
“The day after tomorrow it seems that you have a Sacred Code study session at the church Also, there’s luggage to be organized in the office still, what should we do?”
“I’ll go after I’ my tea”
