Chapter 114

“What are you going to wear?”

That evening.

In the dressing room next to my room, I was secretly rummaging through my clothes.

Last time, Ninaina gave me a lot of clothes, so I won’t be unable to go to the banquet because I don’t have any clothes.

Still, I thought it would be against the etiquette to wear just any clothes even though the name is the Imperial Palace banquet.

‘No, but you are an uninvited guest in the first place, aren’t you?’

The exception, of course, is that we are uninvited children’s guests.

Anyway, I carefully picked out the clothes.

Normally, I would have picked up one of Alice’s clothes too, but when I asked Alice, well, she said there is a way to get clothes.

‘I’m fine, Emir. Of course, thank you very much just for telling me, but now I just have to ask Abish.’

Abish seems to be taking care of Alice and playing a role similar to that of a teacher, somewhat different from normal summons.

Sometimes he’s like an errand man.

‘Mmm. She’s met a really good summoner.’

Anyway, back to the main point, I am worried about what to wear.

“Ah, I would love that outfit then!”

Fortunately, the trouble didn’t last long.

It was because there was an outfit that came to mind.

It was because there was a dress that Ninaina matched the look in the dressing room right away.

‘Of course, Ninaina won’t come wearing this, but since she’s the princess, she’ll wear better clothes, right?’

Still, I wanted to try on this dress at least once, and the opportunity came.

After all, now is the time to grow up as fast as a storm, so even a little bit of time passed and I wouldn’t be able to wear it.

“Then it would be better to wear this for clothes and white enamel shoes for the shoes.”

After preparing the accessories one by one, I left the dressing room. I was looking forward to the banquet in two days!

***

Jake was contemplating something in front of his ordinary dressing room.

The Duchess of Theion, passing by the scene, found it strange and tilted her head.

‘He’s not like this…?’

At the same time, Jake, noticing the presence, raised his head.

“Oh, mother.”

“Jake, what are you so worried about?”

“…What kind of clothes should I wear to a banquet?”

At Jake’s answer, the Duchess’s eyes widened.

Because the question was unexpected.

“Banquet? You mean the imperial banquet to be held two days later? But you wouldn’t be able to go there.”

“I know. But the Crown Princess invited me.”

“Ah, really? Hmm…”

The Duchess had no doubts about Jake’s words.

She was right that there was no reason to doubt it, Jake has always been honest.

It would be quite a surprise for her to know that Jake goes to a banquet secretly without an invitation.

“Your hair is soft brown, so a light cream suit would be nice. Do you like it?”

“Great.”

The Duchess was pretty good at choosing clothes.

She was adept in choosing not only clothes, but also the trees in the garden, the furniture in the mansion, and the ornaments.

Anyway, for that reason, Jake was quite satisfied with choosing what to wear to the banquet.

Meanwhile, there was a small commotion going on in the Grand Duchy of Bedmond…

“Young master? Last time, you took out this uniform uselessly, but what are you doing this time again?”

“What do you mean useless? Everything has a reason.”

“So if you tell me what the reason is, I will give you this uniform. As far as I know, there is no official outside schedule for the master, so what are you going to use it for?”

It was a small arguing scene with a sense of déjà vu.

The servant was holding on not to lose the clothes, and Cedric was persistently trying to get the clothes somehow.

A tight fight.

The winner, unlike the last time, was not Cedric, but the attendant.

“If you don’t tell me until the end, I won’t be able to take it out.”

“Right, fine.”

It was Cedric who suddenly looked at the uniform with conspiring eyes and gave up too easily.

“……what? The young master gives up so easily?”

The servant was perplexed, but he never thought that Cedric would secretly take out his uniform and wear it two days later.

‘Last time, Emir said that it definitely suits me. So I’m going to have to wear that. That’s how it should be.’

Cedric was secretly contemplating stealing(?) his uniform.

And there was also a little commotion at the Duchy of Rose’s residence, which was not far from the Grand Duchess’ residence.

“Abish. I, this dress is a little… too fancy.”

Still a small and shabby attic.

A few days ago, Abish had proposed to decorate this place like a splendid palace, but it was thwarted due to strong opposition from Alice.

‘But if you’re the main character, shouldn’t you look this much? You’re a fairy summoner, should you go with a shabby look? No matter how secret your identity is.’

“Yes? I’m not the main character. It’s a banquet held at the imperial palace. Besides… I didn’t even get an invitation.”

“What, what? Don’t you get invitations? This! Who the hell did such a rude thing to you?! It is not basic courtesy to not give you an invitation!”

Abish, who thought Alice had been ignored, smirked.

“Sir Abish, this is a complete misunderstanding. The person who invited me was the princess, a close friend in my kindergarten.”

“…Ho, the princess invited you?”

“Yes. And I’m doing this because the princess couldn’t get me an invitation. It’s a banquet I can’t go to normally.”

Abish, who was listening to Alice, suddenly asked a question with a serious expression on his face.

“Wait a minute, as you said, wouldn’t it be a big deal if you were found out that you went to the Imperial Palace in secret? Aren’t you going to get caught?”

“…probably so. Abish, if that happens and I end up in jail, please save me. I don’t think my family will save me.”

“What a nonsensical thing to say. I’ll wrap you in my wings and take you to the fairy island.”

Somehow, it was Abish who seemed to take on the role of a strong protector of Alice.

It was worth it, though, that there was no adult who could be a guardian by Alice’s side.

Besides, Absie wasn’t even a heartless fairy to just leave her like that.

So, in the end, Abish took care of Alice like a granddaughter.

“Tsk, tsk, be thankful. Who in the world would be protected by the Fairy King?”

“I am always grateful.”

“Yes, yes.”

Of course, there was the occasional arrogance and terms peculiar to fairies.
