Nicholas asked with a shy smile. It’s the first time I’ve seen him smile like that.
I got a little dazed. Because it wasn’t like the usual blunt Nicholas.
“…… It was my dream to hold a party like this with my close friends at least once. And today is my birthday. Of course, it’s also Ninaina’s birthday.”
Nicholas muttered again, as if making excuses.
Seriously, I couldn’t think of it because Nicholas was one who spoke only mature words for his age.
‘It’s true, Nicholas. It must have been a really long dream.’
Because of this, we couldn’t afford to refuse the request.
We put on animal clothes and decorations on top of each other, and as soon as we looked at each other, we laughed without exception.
“Uahahahaha! Alice, what’s that fluffy cloak? Wow, are you even holding fake carrot?”
Cedric saw the cloak Alice was wearing and grabbed his stomach.
Upon hearing those words, Alice glanced at Cedric, and she held a carrot doll about the size of her forearm.
Then she pointed the tip of the carrot at Cedric as if using a sword.
“Even though Sir Cedric is now a wolf, you can’t ignore the rabbit. It’s small, but it’s fast.”
“…… hey! When did you learn swordsmanship?”
Cedric was startled and stepped back.
Then Alice replied with a big smile.
“I watched what Sir Cedric was doing and imitated it.”
“Ugh…… ! You’re a copycat.”
“What do you mean copycat!”
As I watched the two of them arguing, I soon realized that it was not the time to care about others.
As I moved my elbow back, I felt something clasping.
‘What am I going to do with these wings ….?’
Because right now, on the back of my back, there were model wings as wide as the length of my body.
‘Yes, unicorns have wings. But this is too much!’
…… It was big.
Fortunately, it was light for its size, though.
But the other children were also wearing this because Nicholas begged them to wear them.
“…… Phew.”
I sighed. But fortunately, I wasn’t the only one wearing these wings.
Jake, who bought the unicorn headband with me, also had the same wings.
The difference is that Jake has pale pink wings and I have light sky blue.
I fiddled with the hem of my dress, glanced at my reflection in the glass window.
‘But, well, it’s not bad.’
I actually didn’t hate it. It was my first time dressing up like this and attending a birthday party.
Then, Ninaina, who had been looking back and forth in the mirror, with her cat’s headband on and a few whiskers painted on her face, slowly approached me.
Her expression changed to admiration.
“Wow. You’re like an angel with this! It suits you well, Emir.”
“Hehe, thank you.”
I smiled brightly and turned my head to the sign of presenceI could feel from the other side.
Just in time, several attendants were bringing party food.
“Wow! It’s a 10-tier cake!”
From the cake that was said to be the flower of birthday parties, to sweet and refreshing fruits from all over the continent. Meat dishes that ooze with luster.
In addition to that, there were various kinds of desserts that seemed to melt away.
Foods suitable for children’s palates were lined up and placed on a tree stump-shaped table.
“Shall we blow out the birthday candles? at the same time?”
Two protagonists of the day.
Ninaina and Nicholas blew the candles from opposite sides.
Both of them blew lightly at first, but gradually a competition broke out to see who blew out more candles.
In the end, the two put out all the candles and sat down with the sound of gasping.
“Wow, I blew out exactly two more candles than my brother.”
“I’m sorry, but Ninaina, I blew one with you, didn’t I?”
The two brother-and-sister was arguing as if a sense of competition had arisen.
Meanwhile, the maid came and cut the cake and placed it on each plate.
I stared blankly at the cream cake, which looked so light and soft, as if it would disappear if I touched it, carefully scooping it up with a golden fork and taking it to my mouth.
“Hmm! Delicious……!”
And I immediately screamed.
After all, the cakes of the Imperial Palace were different no matter what.
Of course, the cake made by the chef in our mansion is also delicious to cey for, but now this cake tastes like two people eating it and one of them will die.
When I looked up to see if I was the only one, everyone was eating deliciously with plenty of fresh cream on their lips.
‘Should I hand thema napkin?’
Stupidly, I was concerned about the lips of the other children without noticing that my lips were similarly smeared with cream.
But it was then.
Suddenly, a small, soft finger swept lightly near my cheek.
“…… !”
What, what?
