Chapter 13
After saying a few more sentences, I finished introducing myself.
I’m so proud!
“Then I’ll stop here. Please take good care of me, everyone.”
“Wow, Mir!”
Next to me, Jake clapped his hands with a bright look. Looking ahead, Mrs. Edmont stared at me with a surprised look, and the children sitting next to me were staring at me and clapping their hands.
‘Right, come to think of it……’
I just remembered something that would be perfect for me to do now. I took out the paper bags I placed under the chair.
The children’s eyes grew round, they could not pretend and hide their curious eyes. They were still young children no matter how much they learned about nobility and imperial etiquette.
‘I’m a little child on the outside, but I’m not.’
Mrs. Edmont asked in a curious tone.
“Oh, Young Lady Saeron. What are they?”
“Oh, this. I brought it to share with my friends.”
“Oh, my God! That’s so cool.”
When Mrs. Edmont approached me and saw the package that I had made myself, she put her hands together and brought them to her mouth as if she were genuinely surprised.
Her reaction also caused the children to gather around me one by one, unable to suppress their curiosity. Among them, only Jake, who received a gift from me in advance, sat in his seat triumphantly, looking at me with the expression, “I know what’s in the bag!”
“What’s in there?”
The Princess couldn’t look inside the bags so she asked the question. I answered with a grin as if I were waiting for someone to ask me that.
“It’s a gift!”
“……Do you have mine?”
Of course, of course.
I wanted to say so, but I tried to keep my mouth shut so that I didn’t say the answer.
Nina seemed frustrated by my silence, but she was wriggling her hands without realizing it.
“Are you curious?”
I was well aware that Nina was very, very curious.
No, I couldn’t know just by looking, so I asked with my head tilted.
Then.
“Yes, I’m curious. So show me.”
“Yes.”
Success!
I smiled triumphantly on the inside because this ‘caramel friend making project’ is a very important task. If I don’t make any friends now then I will only have Jake to play with in kindergarten.
To do that, I had to increase my intimacy with these children little by little.
In order to increase the level of intimacy, it is not possible to have the same relationship with the Princess.
Because it’s just a relationship between sovereign and subject, not a friendship.
Anyway, I looked at the ribbon color with a happy expression and stuck out a bag with a red ribbon.
When she received the bag, Princess Nina asked again in a curious voice.
“Why is it red? I like a darker red shade. Or purple like deep velvet.”
I knew.
I knew very well about the likes and dislikes of the main characters in the novel without them telling me.
However, it was no other reason than to make it look normal.
‘Flattery, it’s to flatter you, hoo-hoo.’
I buried my inner evil thoughts away and I once again put the smile on my face that I had when meeting His Majesty the Emperor.
Then I looked at Nina’s eyes.
“Last time, when I first met the Princess, I thought.”
“……Huh? What?”
“The eyes of Princess Nina are like jewels. They’re like…… like a ruby! They’re as pretty as a ruby
ring that my mom had.”
Finally, she fiddled with the ribbon with her eyes slightly looking down.
Anyone would be happy to be praised for having eyes shining like jewelry.
You will surely be happy!
“……Is that so? Do my eyes resemble rubies?”
Indeed, my prediction was correct. She wasn’t excitedly jumping up and down, but she was looking at my gift with a better look than before. It seemed that the ends of her lips were slightly raised.
I continued to brag about my skills when I saw the chance.
“Yes. That’s why I wrapped it with a clear red ribbon like the eyes of the Princess. It’s shameful workmanship…… but I wrapped it myself!”
“Oh my God, is that really. Young Lady? That’s amazing workmanship.”
Mrs. Edmont, who was watching me all along, intervened in amazement. I smiled and nodded my head.
