Chapter 44

I kept watching her while pushing the sweet cake into my mouth.

At first glance, Caitlyn seemed to be leisurely enjoying the banquet, but her gaze was busy looking at the Lombardy employees working around her.

In that gaze, there was a feeling of warmth and happiness, as if returning home after a long time.

At least I thought I knew enough what Lombardy meant to her.

“Tia, this is really delicious, isn’t it?”

Suddenly, Gilliu, who was eating a cake with me, smeared white cream on his mouth and said with a laugh.

“Shall I bring more?”

Mayron asked, glancing at Gilliu.

“No. I want to eat something else after a while.”

“Yes, if you have something you want to eat, tell me.”

Mayron laughed at me when he ‘tapped’ on the back of Gilliu’s hand who trying to eat the last piece of cake that leftover.

Thank you, guys.

I smiled as a sign of gratitude and put it in Mayron’s mouth.

Somehow, Mayron’s cheeks seem to be slightly red.

He seems to be a little tall these days, but he is still a kid who likes sweet things.2

“I ate the cake too, so I have to take care of it now.”

As I said that and started moving, the twins quickly followed.

It seems I have become a mother duck carrying yellow ducklings, but it is much more natural to go around like a child than to snooze alone.

Pretending to look around, I gradually approached the table next to Caitlyn.

“Oh, it’s Clerivan Pellets.”

I was putting one cookie in the palms of the twins with both hands out, and I heard the men next to them whispering.

He was talking while staring at Clerivan on the other side of the banquet hall.

Externally, since we weren’t good enough to look close, Clerivan was always keeping a distance from me.

“He surrounded by women today.”

It was a conversation that seemed quite dissatisfied with Clerivan.

It wasn’t just women that were crowded around Clerivan.

In fact, even though his attitude toward people was not particularly good, many male bureaucrats tried to stay close to Clerivan at least a little, whether they had the magical power to attract people.

But well, there are many women too.

“Look at that.”

“Do women like that guy who doesn’t have politeness?”

“That’s right.”

I wanted to tell those bitter losers.

That face.1

The face is the probability.

But since I was busy now, I glanced at the men with pathetic eyes and continued to move table by table.

And finally, I succeeded in moving to Caitlyn’s table.

Now I have to talk to her.

It was when I was rolling my head like that.

“Excuse me.”

A soft voice came from behind.

“Huh?”

It was Caitlyn who stood just three steps away from us and bowed his knees to greet us.

“I’m Caitlyn Brown.”

I thought about how I would deal with her, but I’m lucky she comes to me first.

“Do you know us?”

When Gilliu asked with eyes wide open, Caitlyn smiled a little.

“Should I shouldn’t immediately know the people from Lombardy?”

“But it seems that everyone here doesn’t know who we are?”

Mayron tilted his head.

“Because the respect for Lombardy is different, the behavior is bound to be different.”

It meant that his love for Lombardy was special enough to be interested in us, who are still children.

Suddenly, I remembered one day when I was standing next to my grandfather helping work.

Caitlyn, a middle-aged woman, visited grandfather and had a brief interview on a day when it rained so much that it was difficult to see.

And on the way out, she walked out of the mansion while getting all the rain.

Still, I haven’t forgotten for a while as I keep looking back.

Even though he helped Perez and betrayed Lombardy to take revenge on the enemies of the Brown family, he was truly depressed.

“Hello. I’m called Florentia.”

I said hello as politely and neatly as possible.

“The last time I saw you, you were just a walking baby. You grew up really wonderfully.”

Certainly, the affection in Caitlyn’s eyes that looked at me was sincere.

First of all, I should make a good impression by saying something good to hear.

What compliment she would like, I thought about the right words to think about.

I asked Caitlyn, with my eyes wide open.

“By the way, if it’s the Brown family, it’s a very famous family for swordsmanship!”

“Oh, my lady, how do you know the name of our family?”

Caitlyn seemed surprised but was very happy.

Caitlyn’s younger brother, who will soon inherit a Lord title from his uncle is known to have a very close relationship with her.

Although he works alone in the fortress, his affection for his family and her remains strong.

“These two men talked about the basic imperial swordsmanship blah blah blah. So when I was curious, I looked for a book, and I found out that the basic imperial swordsmanship was originally called ‘Brown basic swordsmanship’!”

I wasn’t lying.

In fact, the twin’s curiosity about ‘Brown family swordsmanship’ has grown since the beginning of learning the swordsmanship class.

Therefore, the Brown family was greatly influenced and respected by the Imperial Prosecutor.

Even though the ranks of the family completely collapsed after the disgrace of being expelled from their estates that had been ruled from generation to generation about forty years ago.

Caitlyn also grew up in Lombardy when her family fell and there was nowhere to go, and after reaching adulthood, she entered the Imperial Palace as a maid.

“It’s such an excellent swordsmanship, the whole imperial people would have learned it and even named it imperial swordsmanship!”

As I talked with a little fuss, Caitlyn’s face turned slightly red.
