Chapter 13 - You are my first, too! (2) (2/2)
On purpose, he slowly spoke elegantly and smiled.
The turkey served in here tastes amazing and I don’t know why they find it cheap. Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with the prisoners’ minds here. Maybe it’s because I am not born with any nobility in my genes.
“What else are you going to tell me? It would be nice if you could.”
“It’s a pleasure to be a good storyteller for the young lady. Well, talking to you is more of a hobby. Oh, did you hear about Count Andrea?”
Baron has a wide connection inside and outside the prison. They say that networking is the basic virtue of aristocrats, but looking at Baron, everyone should be careful because they are looking at a swindler. Perhaps this is why I was very impressed with the news and stories he told.

“Don’t tell me… Do you think they did it?”
“Yes. Chaser Rube Domulit, the next Black Rose of the family, has made a big scene.”
Oh, is it possible because they’re a bad family?
“But the problem that will shock you was that Count Andrea was the right-hand man of the Archduke of Hel.”
“Oh, my God! The Red Rose?”
“Yes. That Hel!”
