Chapter 529 – [Blood Debut Ceremony]

The ball was two weeks away, and preparations were still to be made. Of course, it was almost finished, so there were only small things left, not big ones.

“Do you have any discomfort in moving?”

“Okay, I like it”

“Thank you”

First of all, it’s time to order a custom suit with a trendy design. To be precise, after going through a few fixes, the final product came to the end.

I’m so glad I have money to spend here. In the old days, you couldn’t wear a suit with a gold coin unit.

“The preparations are complete, is the rest just waiting?”

“Please listen to etiquette education for an hour more.”

“I’m tired of etiquette now. I’ve remembered it for now, so leave it alone.”

It’s not that easy to get all of the common etiquette hammered into the head in just a few months. However, I somehow memorized it with the understanding of the transcendent.

If you are from Korea, which is synonymous with injection education, you should do this. To begin with, I came from a liberal arts department where most of my studies were memorization.

It’s a problem to apply in practice, but if you know it, you just have to be careful. There is no room for error at all.

“Just in case you didn’t know, I’ve compiled a list of people to talk to at the ballroom. Simple profiles and information are included, so you can familiarize yourself with them.”

“Should I even do this?”

“I can’t help it”

Considering Leticia’s preparedness, it was actually necessary. Couldn’t it be over after dancing a few times?

Who am I talking to! My connections are so cool! I had to show a show-style social act with that kind of feeling.

“And Lady Bistra will be visiting this afternoon.”

“No matter what, they come often. Almost every two or three days?”

“Yes, but it’s better that you’re here for a meal, not because you’re feeling down.”

There are few visitors in the Emerald Palace where I live. Incredibly few.

Even if you count the number of visitors in a week, you can count them on one hand. Except for Lady Beastra, the one who comes often is the 1st Princess sister, but she usually has a busier schedule than mine, so if she comes once a week, she comes a lot.

“There’s only one week left. To be honest, I’m a bit nervous, but how was Young lady’s debut?”

“Hmm…To be honest, there’s not much fun, so it’s boring.”

“I can roughly understand”

For an aristocratic daughter, she is frank and unpretentious, but if she was still young and was born into a family that was distant from power and society and had a liberal family tradition, it would be understandable. Anyway, even if you don’t get along with nobles, the strength of the continental 10 rivers won’t go anywhere.

The merits of being unique or exclusive are great. If she is the daughter of one of the only ten armed men on the continent, she deserves to be honest.

Who can stop the Margrave of Bistra from calling for a duel if Lady Bistra is insulted?

Even dukes cannot block a legitimate request for a duel. Throwing a glove in the face and turning it into pouring water at the point of application, I have no choice but to notice.

At least, no one would openly insult Lady Beastra. Yes, outright.

“I don’t have anyone I can call friends, and I don’t have any interesting stories to tell at tea parties.”

“The field of interest to the lady is… Well, it’s not something that ordinary noble ladies would be interested in. If we go deeper, it’s something like handling weapons.”

“Uh… Did you notice?”

“Let’s hold hands while practicing dance”

If it were me, I would have already judged it by looking at the top of the dress, but I knew it by holding my hand while practicing dancing. She has calluses on her hands from holding weapons. Towards her window.

When the material she likes comes out, her complexion becomes much brighter.

“Your Highness, do you have any martial arts that you learn separately?

“I haven’t learned anything yet. I haven’t even thought about learning anything yet.”

“I’ve said it before, but something…”

She’s still a good girl with intuition. I think she will become a heroine in a different way from the 1st princess sister.

She doesn’t seem to be a fantasist yet. She’s about the same age as me, but she’s surprised to see that I’m a fancier, so she must be a little too early.

In addition, fantasy power is the ability of feeling based on will and adding some directionality to it. In the end, even if it is a will, it will take more time to use this ability because it comes from a firm ego.

Anyway, I changed her subject before she could ask more about this side of the story.

“Anyway, if the lady visits me often like this, there might be a problem.”

“Ah… Is it going to be a nuisance?”

“That’s not what it means, but it means that there might be a scandal with the young lady.”

Actually, when you think about it, it’s disgusting when you have a scandal with an 7-year-old and an 11-year-old. However, the aristocratic society is also a more disgusting place to take advantage of such things.

The opponent’s age doesn’t matter. No, on the contrary, young-geun who have clumsy strength and hair among nobles sometimes know color even in their early teens.

At least, the coming-of-age ceremony here is for 20-year-olds, so I know it’s embarrassing for an adult to do it with a minor, but…

“Um, then my father would be angry… Maybe even if I told him to pass it on, he might definitely hit the estate and run to the capital.”

“That’s a bit”

Oh, I was a little bit confused about this one. So, is the Marquess of Bistra out of business?

I felt a little wrong in choosing her as her partner. But this story should have been told to the Marquee a long time ago, but has there been a reaction yet?

“Ah, if that’s the case, I begged and accepted.”

“Did you say anything else?”

“Oh, um…”

“I think you know what I mean, so you don’t have to say anything.”

It’s probably a line with a nuance like ‘don’t worry, daddy will fuck you up if the 3rd prince does something strange’, right?

The name of the ten continents will not be discussed unless it is at the level of the king and emperor of each country, so only me, who is a member of the royal family, can see where the emperor will tip if he puts it on the scale.

If I mess with Lady Beastra, the Marquess will do the same to the emperor, and it’s obvious that I will be dethroned.

Of course, that’s what happens when I’m not a reincarnated person. Even if she didn’t, she wouldn’t touch her.

“The meals at Emerald Palace are delicious, so I visit often without even realizing it. I’m sorry.”

“No. That’s because it’s a good meaning. The 1st Princess also often stops by my palace to have a meal.”

“Ah, I’ve heard of that story. Are you close with Her Highness, the 1st princess?”

“It’s okay. At least I don’t think it’s to the point of blushing and being hostile.”

This kind of information should not be easily leaked. If you say you’re close, you might end up being used in various places.

Aren’t you drinking too much kimchi soup? What if someone entrusts mediation with the 1st princess sister through me? Or conversely, taking me as a hostage and dragging the 1st princess sister into a trap… I wouldn’t let it go easily, but I had to be careful as this kind of political strife was not my specialty.

“I’m looking forward to this ball. I’ll be able to dance with someone other than my brother or my family’s vassals and nobles’ children.”

“I’m looking forward to it too. It’s the debut ceremony.”

Please let it pass quietly.

At least without me exploding.

*        *    *

The time of decisive battle has come.

The ball hosted by the imperial family was not held for one day. Open over 3 days.

But not all 3 days. It is not officially decided, but it is implicit. On the first day, local nobles such as barons and viscounts mainly attend, from the second day onwards, higher-ranking nobles, and on the last day, the emperor including the imperial family attends.

Day 3 even when I attend. But there the order diverges again.

There is a saying that the main character appears last. So, first of all, the emperor and empress appear last. No, it’s something to know when the imperial family comes out on the third day.

However, even in that way, if the order of the imperial family was to be considered, it was said that I had to appear first in the end.

That means you have to be the first to come, stay the longest, and be the last to leave.

“I wish you luck, Your Highness”

“Don’t worry”

It was a bit awkward to see a 7-year-old child wearing a party suit, but I think it’s my sense. It’s not a suit that doesn’t fit the body, it’s made to order, so it’s natural that it suits you.

The place where the ball is held is the Topaz Palace, which is used when there is something to entertain, such as social and diplomatic activities such as the guitar.

Rather than a place where someone lives, it is such a palace where guests from outside stay and hold events. By the way, the place where the emperor lives is the diamond palace.

“It’s about time. Shall we go, young lady?”

“Yes, Your Highness”

Dressed in a light red dress that contrasted with her blue hair, the lady of the Vistra looked cute while overflowing with health.

What? More evaluation? Do you think you can say more than cute when you see an 11-year-old?

The word sexy is not meant for children, human!

Oh, except for my wife.

“Give me your hand”

“Yes”

If the male side is one head different from the female, the picture won’t come out, but it’s still the best partner at this point. More than anything, it’s because the heart fits well.

I held Lady Beastra’s hand and walked to the ballroom.

“Ah, Your Highness. I’ve been waiting for you. Have it inside.”

The chamberlain was waiting for us in front of the ballroom. His role is to manage and inform the nobility and the imperial family who come and go.

Ah, you shouldn’t think of the chief chamberlain as a subordinate. My mother was a lady-in-waiting and a maid who worked in the palace, but just like a fallen aristocrat was a noble, the head chamberlain also received a title higher than that of a noble.

That’s why at least other guys don’t get beaten up or insulted for being nobles. This is because if he is the chamberlain of the imperial family, he is at least treated like a quasi-count.

Isn’t the title too big for a servant? Somewhere in the Middle Ages, I heard that an attendant who wiped away a king’s dung was treated as a marquis, but this is a nobleman.

The chamberlain wrote something and immediately opened the door to the ballroom. Then he walks ahead and clears his throat, gathering people’s attention and shouting.

“Prince Worst von Frontier, the star of the empire, and his partner, the Lady of Count Bistra, are eating it!!!!”

The size of the ballroom was wide, but there were a lot of nobles. And I can feel the eyes of many of them going this way.

By the way, a star… The title of the royal family’s offspring is a star, the emperor is the sun, and the empress is the moon? Barely know

I took a breath and walked slowly into the ballroom.

Then, someone starts clapping. It was closer to being a member of the royal family rather than to me, but it was applause in the sense of congratulating the debut of a socialite.

Soon I walked to the middle of the ballroom. Their applause continued until I was clearly at the center of this ball.

“Dear guests, thank you for your welcome!”

I took a look around and began loudly declaring my socialite debut.

It seems like a simple speech, but it is a speech that relies purely on individual performance without tools and does not allow beeping while producing high notes. If a 7-year-old, no, 8-year-old child had to do it, it would not be enough to prepare for a speech contest.

Besides, if you don’t listen to the ballroom because your voice is too low, that’s going to be an issue… To be honest, it’s a debut ceremony for the purpose of creating weaknesses.

But I have no problem He wasn’t nervous, his voice was loud enough, and he didn’t even squeak. With a dignified and confident expression, I introduced myself in front of numerous aristocrats.

“I declare here that I will protect my pride and honor so that there will be no harm to the name of the empire!!!!!”

Applause is heard along with the final declaration. Well, judging from the fact that he doesn’t make a lot of noise, it seems like the debut ceremony went well.

Before long, the ballroom became noisy again. There were people who were interested in me, but there were also people who were talking about it with others.

“I have to show you first, so shall we dance a song, young lady?”

“Yes, Your Highness”

The bands were playing and intervened between the men and women who started dancing again to the song.

I’m shorter on my side, but I lead the dance. In fact, I have to do that because right now I am the center. Because she leads and hears another strange sound.

My body is moving, but it’s time to rest for a while. At least you can rest your mind while dancing.

“That person……Hmm”

“He said he was the owner of a restaurant called Third Royal. I haven’t been there yet, but the baron said he did. How is it?”

“At least a restaurant is a must-have place for socializing. The atmosphere, the cuisine, the quality, nothing was missing.”

Fortunately, thanks to the restaurant business, the reputation doesn’t seem too bad. The evaluation of the aristocrats heard while dancing was generally like that.

And.

“Prince Geist von Frontier, the star of the empire, and his partner, the Lady of Count Vermilion, are eating it!!!”

The last of the brothers, who were finally able to see their faces, entered the ballroom.
