Once Lecan looked to have calmed down a bit, Norma resumed her narration.
”Well then, allow me to continue. So, we met the prime minister.”

Orbanus Rainzats.
Even a medic in a backwater town like Norma knows that name.
The person who manages all administrative matters in Zaka Kingdom, a small rural town like Vouka could only cower had he set sight on it.
Norma knows nothing about his personality and ability, but considering this man has kept his position for fifteen straight years, Orbanus can't possibility inept.
”Truly, it's great that we are able to have this talk before you attend the marriage interview with the two big nobles who own two of the biggest harbor towns. Now then, let us enjoy the tea first.”
”It's an honor to have received your invitation. I am Norma Wazrof Goncourt.”
Norma was bothered by something as she greeted.
He's too polite.
With the standing and position Orbanus hold, his attitude towards Norma is simply way too polite.
And that raised Norma's suspicion.
After slowly sipping her tea and putting the cup back, she spoke to the prime minister with a composed tone.
”I'm truly grateful for your cordial welcome. Would it be acceptable if I interpret that you have formally recognized me as a member of Wazrof then?”
The prime minister didn't let up of his amiable smile. However, Norma didn't overlook how his eyes shot up a sharp light for an instance.
”Lady Norma, you are the daughter of Sasfrey-dono, the sixth son of the late previous marquis of Wazrof. Of course, Prime Minister Office is well aware of that fact.”
”So you would recognize me as a granddaughter of princess Lorecia?”
The PM had a slightly troubled look on his face.
”Lady Norma. Revising Family Tree Record is not such a simple matter.”
Norma slightly turned her head and spoke to the house aide.
”Fujisur-dono.”
”Yes, Norma-sama. Yesterday, I went to the Prime Minister Office, to request a change in our Noble Family Tree record, revising Sasfrey-sama's mother to princess Lorecia. The staff in charge gave their approval after confirming the family tree record I brought there. I have the receipts as well. It has been accepted without a doubt. So now I ask your excellency prime minister. The revision I applied and accepted yesterday cannot possibly has been left undone today, and regardless if that is so, our house recognizes Sasfrey-sama as a son of princess Lorecia with that application, in which I believe your excellency is aware yourself. Pray tell.”
