Chapter 113
Chapter 113
unedited
A few days have passed since then.
It seemed that Alice was constantly with Abish.
She used to look lonely even when she was with everyone in kindergarten, but now she looks more energetic.
‘It’s a relief.’
Alice only told me that the fruits from the fairy island brought by Abish are really sweet and melt away.
It was so delicious that she ate it up in the blink of an eye.
Next, she said she will ask Abish to bring me and the kindergarten kids, too, and I’m curious about the taste.
After Alice safely became a fairy summoner, my worries became less and less.
My worries these days are much more trivial than before, for example,
‘I heard that a banquet will be held in the imperial family in two days.’
Every summer, there is a grand banquet in which the royal family invites nobles.
Of course, to be able to enter there, you have to be a nobleman who has made a debut.
That is, I can’t.
I still have to wait 10 more years to attend.
But the royal family is an exception, so maybe Prince Nicholas and Princess Ninaina will attend.
‘Ah, envy! I want to go to a banquet too.’
I, who used to snoop around the small gatherings held in the mansion, wondered how glamorous a real banquet would be.
Of course, like everything, it’s only amazing for one or two times, so after the debutante, I will be tired of attending.
“Haaa……”
“Emir, why are you sighing?”
“Ah, Princess!”
Surprised by her hand on my shoulder, I turned around and saw Ninaina shrugging her shoulders.
As if reading my thoughts, Ninaina brought up the banquet story.
“I can’t come to kindergarten tomorrow. Both my brother and I. As you know, there is a banquet.”
“Did the princess go to banquets often? Is the banquet fun?”
Suddenly, my curiosity rose and I asked Ninaina a question.
Then Ninaina answered.
“I’ve been going there often since I was a kid. It’s fun, but I don’t have anyone to play with and it hurts my legs to stand still. I’ve been hiding on the terrace once or twice.”
“Ah……”
It’s not all about good things either.
Ninaina already had a tired expression on her face, as if fed up.
Then she said, her gaze was fixed on me.
“Emir, can’t you come to the banquet?”
That’s a reasonable thing to say.
I nodded once.
Then Ninaina pondered for a moment before continuing.
“Are you curious about the banquet?”
“Oh, yes! I am very curious!”
I answered right away. Usually, in this case, she’ll invite me.
And my expectations did not go against me.
“Then come with me.”
“Sure, Princess! So, are you sending me an invitation?”
I clenched my fists with excitement and stared at Ninaina.
But Ninaina shook her head.
“No invitations.”
“Gasp! So what should I do? I think I will be dragged out by the guards at the entrance.”
The banquets of other nobles were similar, but the banquets held in the Imperial Palace were particularly thorough.
Without an invitation, you were never allowed to enter.
Even the invitation was enchanted to make it difficult to forge.
But you can’t not send me an invitation!
‘Oh, am I being humiliated?’
I imagined.
I was proudly dressed in a banquet dress and got off the carriage, but because I did not have an invitation, the guards easily picked me up and sent me back to the carriage.
All the nobles will buzz and look at that little kid.
Just imagining it, I’m embarrassed….
“Don’t worry. I have a way.”
But Ninaina says don’t worry.
I tilted my head.
“How?”
“Well. Before the banquet starts, I’ll send you a carriage without the Imperial Palace’s mark. You can ride it to the Imperial Palace. Then the banquet will start and you can sneak in with me.”
That’s a good way. My eyes gleamed.
If it’s Ninaina, she must know very well how to sneak into a banquet hall.
She was a resident of the Imperial Palace.
Just when I was about to answer yes.
“Princess, I want to go with you.”
“Lord Jake?”
Suddenly, Jake appeared from somewhere and spoke.
After that, Ninaina panicked for a moment, and then she nodded her head.
“Okay, then Lord Jake will go with you. But if it’s two people, won’t you be caught when you’re hiding……”
There was a slight hesitation in Ninaina’s tone of voice.
But it didn’t end there.
“The Imperial Palace Banquet? Would it be fun? Your Highness, I want to go too.”
“Ah… me too!”
Cedric and Alice, who were listening to our conversation secretly from afar, decided to go together.
“I can’t help it.”
At this point, Ninaina spoke in a tone as if she had given up on something.
“Let everyone come without being discovered, then. I’ll send you the wagon.”
“Great, Princess!”
Hearing our cry, Ninaina had a happy expression on her face that was somehow different from her tone of voice.
