Chapter 527 – [Blood Debut Ceremony]
My socialite debut date was pulled up drastically. But even if it was busy, it wasn’t a big hit.
“Honestly, it’s a murderous schedule for a single-digit kid’s job…”
“It’s okay. It’s worth it.”
Normally, children sleep a lot. It’s not just a personal preference, it’s a springboard for growth.
If I hadn’t realized this ability as a reincarnated person and used other powers, it would have been quite a problem. It wouldn’t be strange if he died from overwork.
Anyway, after receiving some education and etiquette lessons, I was finally able to debut in the social world.
“I suffered so much…”
“Your Majesty! Use nice words!”
“I’m not a captain, so don’t keep pushing me like that. I’ll do my best.”
First of all, it was decided that I would make my social debut at the age of 8. It’s too early for the royal family, but it doesn’t matter.
Even though I’m quite old physically… To be honest, my physical age is over 10 years old. If you do a little more, semen will come out! It would be great if you could come to Zion!
If you look at her now, Shion will explode and try to attack you with ‘Hmm, shota sex!’
No matter how big or small my dick is, he’d just pounce on it and enjoy it. Honestly, the size of it between us is just a side dish.
“The purchase of the farm has been completed. As for the Kaimak that Your Highness wants, we are researching the production process in full swing.”
“Tell me when you’re done”
Kaimak, more precisely, clotted cream.
It is a type of dairy product that is made on top of fatty dairy products that are not boiled, but heated to the point where they do not boil. By the way, it’s fucking delicious. It is no exaggeration to say that it tastes heavenly when topped with honey.
Personally, I wanted to go to Turkey and eat dondurma with my wife… So, it’s one of the foods I wanted to eat like Turkish ice cream, but I couldn’t eat it then, so I wanted to make it here. Coincidentally, the milk here must have a lot of fat content, just right.
“There are only 4 months left until the ball. The same goes for Your Highness’s 8th birthday…”
“Is it”
“If there is anything uncomfortable, please call me, Your Highness”
Saying that, Leticia took a step back. A few facts that she would not have known if she were an ordinary human, but she could have known because I was the youngest, flashed by.
What is a man’s job… To be honest, it’s strange that members of the royal family who were born as males don’t know women, but anyway.
“The business is going well, but the person in charge of the enemy is very busy, so it’s a bit like that.”
“I can’t help it”
The nanny tackled it succinctly. Honestly, that’s normal.
In order to debut in the social world, she took etiquette and culture lessons in the Spartan way, and by the time she finally got permission, the ball was right around the corner.
To be honest, since I’m a reincarnated person, this story wouldn’t have been possible if I didn’t have the basic knowledge and the mental part.
“Sweet, no matter how much you learn, etiquette is lacking. No, damn, who the hell studied etiquette from a story from hundreds of years ago?”
“Majesty!”
“Ah! Okay! I’ll write a nice word! I’m writing it!!!”
To the nanny’s prompting, she replied that she would use it for now, and prepared.
In fact, there are many problems as the socialite debut, which was delayed by years, is pushed back to the day after tomorrow. My schedule is also aaaaa!!!!
“I’m glad you cleaned up the basics though.”
“Your Highness, but to be at a ball like that…”
“If it comes out, it comes out. If it’s not a big scar, it’s fine. If it’s a small scar anyway, people won’t be able to argue, right?”
Fortunately, the name value of the prince can cover quite a few flaws. Even if I can’t dance, it doesn’t matter as long as I don’t step on my partner’s foot and crush it.
Of course, I’m not like that…
“But who’s my prom partner?”
“Oh, um…”
“You’re not stable yet, are you?”
“Honestly, I haven’t decided yet because I wanted to see if Her Highness would be able to keep up with the class schedule.”
“Well, usually it’s hard to handle that murderous schedule.”
Socialite debut, and the partner at the debut site also plays a role in determining the status of the opponent.
If Zion were there, I would be treated like a commoner here, and I would ignore all reputation and take him away, but if not, my Mage route would be at least the Countess’s daughter.
“Will there be a woman who would go with something like me?”
“How is His Highness?”
“I’m very grateful for the nanny who tackles me there, but I have to think realistically.”
I’m a bit better than before, but I’m still far from power. Usually, nobles flock to this part because there are benefits… If it was the Crown Prince’s older brother, all the noble families would attach the ladies to make a scandal, but not me.
I’ll have to look elsewhere, but I don’t know if there’s anyone who deserves it.
“You have to be the same age and body as me to dance at least, and it’s not okay if there is too much difference in status, and I wonder if there is someone who can be talked about.”
“I’ll look for it”
“Please, Nanny”
For this type of work, a nanny who was well acquainted with the imperial palace and aristocratic situation would be suitable.
However, the conditions are quite strict. People younger than me wouldn’t have debuted as a socialite, so in the end, the opponent is fixed by age, and since you have to find someone who is a similar age, the maximum age is about 12 years old if you look at the maximum age of 5… At that point, the socialite debuted. I would have done it, but up to a certain level, the development of women is better than men, so there will be a difference in body size.
But it’s something you have to bear with. Even though I’m 7 years old and have the development of a 10-year-old, my body isn’t fully grown yet.
A few days later, the nanny narrowed down a few candidates and brought her list.
“Quite a lot”
“Yes, there are many aristocratic families who want to have a relationship with the imperial family.”
“Even if it’s just a prince in name.”
The name of the imperial family looks better than I thought. Or is it proof that my name is at least a little known?
In fact, considering this era when the concept of human rights did not even exist, women’s rights were only at a slightly better level from the bottom, and the daughters of aristocratic families were only tools for arranged marriages. It is rare for aristocrats to give love in the proper form unless it is for a decent person.
Looking through the list, I came across a name that caught my eye.
“Beastra?”
The exact position is Marquis. In other words, it is the Vistra Marqueeback.
For reference, Marquess is the title of count on the surface, but in reality, he is treated like the Marquis of Ragnakov. This is because the position of Marquee has considerable real power.
Its real power mainly corresponds to military power and plays an important role in national defense. Even with a simple position, it is safe to say that he is the real power of the empire.
But the power of the Margrave of Bistra does not come from there.
“If you take the wife of one of the 10 continents, wouldn’t it gossip in various ways?”
Currently, the empire has two of the continental ten.
Duke Magnus, grandfather of Empress Grabell. And the vistra changeback I just mentioned.
Considering the status of the Continental Ten Rivers here and things like that, it wouldn’t be strange for the Margrave of Bistra to receive the title of Duke rather than Count, but there was a reason for that.
He is, on the one hand, the furthest from power. Everyone covets the power he has, but he cannot use it.
“Did you say delusion?”
“Yes, this is where the black witch who was a delusion 300 years ago died.”
Awakening one’s imagination to become a person capable of fantasy, and awakening one’s own fantasy from there to become a person capable of daydreaming.
But that just can’t be right. Human values are different, and in the end, those who are twisted will always come out.
Honestly, if you look closely, I’m not a normal personality, right? Even if you look at the transcendental ones, this is the level, but what about below that?
And such twisted dreamers are called delusional. And branded as an achievement on the continent, they are wanted extensively.
Same with the Black Witch. She had a fantasy of creating monsters and used it to cause a massacre, becoming a paranoid and subjugated.
Yes, the subjugation was done. It’s a problem after that.
“The Margrave of Bistra rarely comes out of the territory. He probably won’t even participate in the ball hosted by the imperial family next year.”
“Isn’t it because of the territory’s defense?”
“Yes that’s right”
Self-fantasy may remain even after the user dies. The Black Witch’s self-fantasy was the same.
The resentment of being subjugated and dying produced monsters with more intense emotions than in life, and the place became a delusion.
The Marquis of Beastra is in a position where he cannot easily get out of his body because he plays the role of blocking such delusions. Because he knows that, he is said to be giving various preferential treatment even in the empire. It’s just that it has little to do with real power.
“It’s a power like a gye.”
He is one of the ten strongmen on the continent, but he cannot freely use that power, and even if he receives the authority, his use for it is limited. It’s like watching a soldier who won the lottery.
No matter how much money you have, if you are in the military, do you have anything more than PX to spend that money on?
In addition, the territory of the Margrave of Bistra was also not a very affluent place, so it was rather a position to go through the empire’s defense budget. Knowing that if there is a hole in it, it will be fucked, so they give up their empire without saying anything.
He didn’t show up well in social circles, it was difficult to use, it wasn’t that there were no nobles who were interested in him, but it was difficult to get deeply involved… Because of these and other conditions, the Margrave of Beastra was an opponent.
Since he is ignorant of the military side by using the national defense budget, he will be friendly with the aristocrats who do military supply business, but if he does something wrong, the battlefield will be hooked right in front of him, so he won’t even think of military supply corruption. There will be gains, but there won’t be any big gains…
“Should we meet and think about it?”
“I think you should do that, Your Highness.”
“Please send me a letter so that we can make an appointment later.
“If you think about people’s eyes, that will be better.”
It was better inside than outside. At least the people inside were people who could be called mine.
Of course, it’s not that there are no infiltrators, but at least there are no spies. Well, there’s nothing I can hide anyway other than my true heart and my powerlessness, so that’s not a big problem either.
Afterwards, I wrote a letter to Lady Beastra in my own handwriting and sent it. A response came in a few days, and we quickly set up a date to meet.
“It would be nice to be someone who likes delicious food.”
“Lady Beastra isn’t a person with a bad reputation. But she doesn’t have much weight in the social world…”
“That’s okay. They say they play with each other, but it’s rather good.”
On the one hand, I’m looking forward to it because I think we can understand each other. The words seem to work well.
A few days later, on the promised date, Lady Bistra visited the Emerald Palace.
“Nice to meet you, Your Highness, Third Prince. I am Luminous von Bistra of the Bistra family.”
“Nice to meet you, Lady Bistra. Please be at ease.”
“I will be grateful for the favor”
She is 11 years old this year. Up to a certain point, even if a woman’s growth outperformed a man’s, she was only a head’s difference in physical age from her.
Perhaps, considering young girls her age, she was on the big side. Are your family’s genes on that side?
Her blue hair, mixed with her oddly curly feel, falls all the way down to her shoulders. She’s wearing a dress, but it feels foreign, like a wild girl’s.
Something more wild, like a beast…
“Suin?”
“Yes?”
“No, it’s nothing. Somehow it feels like that.”
“First of all, we had beastman blood mixed in our family line, but…”
It is said that the ancestor of the Bistra family was a beastman. However, after moving to the Empire, he said that his blood faded as he married a human, and that he eventually lost his beastman characteristics. However, the influence of that blood is stronger than that of normal humans.
However, the young lady seems to have a fantasy ability, and although she covers it with gloves, she has some calluses embedded in her… It’s a skill she has touched a spear.
I can see why it felt like a beast. Because she was more suited to the wild than the stuffy aristocratic society.
“First of all, since I don’t know the young lady’s taste, I prepared simple refreshments, but let’s talk slowly while drinking tea.”
“I’ve heard rumors about Your Highness… Can I expect something?”
“Of course”
Oh, you seem to like sweets.
Your eyes just became those of a hawk looking for prey.
