”Dear. The banquet's preparations are almost done.”
”Aah, is it now. Let's call her ladyship once it is.”
”But we could only scramble what we had on hand.”
”Hasn't her ladyship said that she doesn't mind.”
”Even so, the Head Chef was complaining, if only they had more time to prepare.”
”Haha. Her ladyship is surely accustomed to the highest degree of culinary. She might even find simple dishes of a countryside to her liking.”
”My! How could you say our family cooking countryside.”
”Countryside fish and vegetable are fine, so long as she enjoys it.”
”She's surely has a discriminating palate.”
”Oho. I see you've stopped doubting her ladyship's standing.”
”Oh please don't mention that anymore. I mean, she didn't have an escort, she steered a cart by herself, her body was full of mud and she even had armor on her. Who would believe that she's a daughter of Reinzats House.”
”However, her armor and sword are worth this entire mansion. Besides, the luggage and barrel on her cart.”
”Yes! The head and legs of Dungeon Ninae's boss. Even the elites of Royal Knights can't get hold of such things so easily. And yet, that lovely young lady would.”
”You said lovely there.”
”Oh right, you didn't see it, dear. How her ladyship looked after a bath. Her smooth flushed skin like that of the highest silk. Her lustrous hair. And her jewel-like pupils. The maids have been completely captivated by her ladyship already.”
”Hou. I can't wait for the banquet.”
”She's quite gallant in her armor, but in dress she's just.”
”I don't doubt her swordsmanship, her being a knight, but it appears she's well versed in music as well. She was looking for a Shetrada earlier.”
”My, I had no idea. But still, she surely had robust subordinates that accompanied her conquering the dungeon, where would they be now I wonder. How dare they left her ladyship to go on alone.”
”I did ask her ladyship about it. But she put on quite a sorrowful look on her face then. There must have been some sort of complicated circumstances.”
”Right it is. It must be. But truly, I can't believe she would rely on our house.”
”I've never been happier our son works as an adjutant to the Royal Knight's Commander.”
”Yes really. Oh that kid, despite his lack of tact, he has got her ladyship's trust, doesn't he. Perhaps, maybe.”
”Now now. We do not chew more than we can swallow. Our standing is too far apart to Marquis House of Reinzats. It will never bring anything good.”
”You're right. Of course.”
”Personally, I cannot wait for the next palatial visit.”
”My, why would that be.”
”Think about it. Naturally, there is no chance of me meeting with Marquis Reinzats directly. However, his excellency Prime Minister will surely come to greet me.”
”My.”
”What do you think his excellency would say then. Of course. He'd surely thank me for taking care of his niece.”
”That's wonderful.”
”It'd be the highest honor. And the rumor of his excellency owing me a debt would quickly spread. And of course, those merchants would surely shift their attitudes. Hahaha. I cannot wait for it.”
”My.”
”Oh. It's the sound of Shetrada.”
”It's a song! She's singing a song.”
”What a gorgeous sounding tune.”

Listen to the sound of wind
Listen to the sound of wind
As I bring my voice
As I bring my voice
To that departed someone
To that departed someone
O rocky path
O desert path
Stricken by rain
Dried by drought
