ple I’ve ever met in my life.
See you again.
I’ll visit the capital from time to time when things get sorted out.
I hope the next time we see each other, we’ll both be happier.”

The Duchess patted Dalia on the back and said that.
Dalia also smiled.

And that was her farewell with the Duchess.

It’s always sad to say goodbye, but she was happy with the fact that the Duchess was alive.

 

* * *

 

When the Duchess Blueport left, it was Adrisha who filled her vacancy.

Since Adrisha became Dalia’s maid of honor, she often visited the Pesteros mansion.

Dalia welcomed her with enthusiasm.
Now that there was no immediate concern, all she could do was to fangirling over the original character.

Of course, it was not that there was nothing on her mind.

The Duchess Blueport incident went well, but Dalia still had one concern on her mind, considering what happened that day.

Clearly, Duchess Blueport was in a very stable condition when she spoke to Dalia.

But can her condition deteriorate so bad enough for the congestion to happen in a matter of hours?

When she thought of the original story, the male characters didn’t suddenly become, ‘Ta-da! I’ve gone crazy!’ not like this, but they’ll get more sensitive with the continuation usage of their mana, and then they’ll be in congestion.

But that’s not what happened with Duchess Blueport.

‘……It’s weird.’

Dalia also told Hikan of her thoughts.

He also said that the Blueport and the royal family are currently working together to investigate as they had the same suspicions.
But they didn’t have any clue.

Well, the culprit was not identified because it was a simple incident in the original story.
But she couldn’t completely get rid of it from her mind.

She wanted to protect the Duchess Blueport.
For a very long time, the Duchess was her only friend.

‘But the person who will scheme such a thing in the original……is it brother?’

Of course it’s not Hikan.
If it’s not him.

‘Aceras?’

Dalia thought of him reflexively.

As far as Dalia knows, among the people who were there, Aceras was the most cunning person.

‘But I can’t think of him as the culprit because of that one thing.’

Dalia bowed her head sullenly.

The four Duke families have many enemies.
Just thinking about the Pesteros right now, the family members are still circling around trying to rip off Hikan and Dalia.

The more privileged and stronger the power someone has, the more humans who seek them gather.
The Blueport family is no different.

If they’re looking for the culprit, it’s right to start investigating the surroundings of the Duchess Blueport first.

‘Let’s not think too much about the original.
This is also a prejudice.’

Therefore, she had no choice but to wait for the results of the investigation.

In the end, all that remains is to play with Adrisha.

She didn’t do anything great.

It was fun to just chat and play while drinking tea.
The day went by quickly when she saw her favorite character breathing and talking in front of her eyes.

Through this Blueport incident, Dalia’s affection for Adrisha, which was already deep, had deepened.

Because of such a situation, she was worried and concerned about Adrisha’s future.
She was always lonely despite receiving the love of the three male protagonists (including Hikan’s love) that everyone would envy.

Dalia knew that Adrisha was always thirsty for affection while playing the original game.

There is nothing that Dalia can do with her lack of strength, but she wanted to relieve Adrisha’s loneliness as much as possible before the time came.

So she acted cute to Adrisha twice as much as she did to Hikan.

“Why is Adrisha so pretty?”

 “……In my eyes Dalia is prettier.”

At first she panicked by Dalia’s attack of affection, however she quickly collapsed.
Thanks to this, the two quickly became friends.

While they drank tea together, Adrisha shared rumors of noble children around Dalia’s age.

Dalia had no friends of her age, so it was fun to hear everything for the first time.

When the ball was about a week away, Dalia and Adrisha were drinking tea at the garden in Pesteros mansion.

Again, Adrisha came with an incredible story.

“So, as far as I can see, it’s clear that Lady Peggy has a crush on the Crown Prince.”

Dalia shook her head in surprise.

“Goodness, but I was surprised that His Highness was so popular.
I saw him once and he’s not really my style.”

“Oh, where did you see him?”

‘Ah, my mistake.’

Dalia immediately shut her mouth.

Of course Dalia had never seen him in person.

Leonard didn’t show up at the last ball, and he stopped joining social activities such as tea parties.

She saw him in the game.

Her expectation was high since he was the Crown Prince, but from the standing CG, he was not that good.
Even though his face was like that, his personality was not very attractive.
He’s also immature.

‘Rather, His Highness the Second Prince was much more handsome.’

Dalia recalled Cedric, whom she met at the last ball.
He was really handsome.

To the point she wants to see him again.

Anyway, Dalia replied vaguely.

“Well… I just heard the rumor.”
