The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

At that time, even Jake, who was quietly guarding me, said something.

“Emir, I haven’t seen your room in a long time. I wonder if a lot has changed.”

Jake has already been to the Marquisate of Saeron many times, and he has visited my room dozens of times.

Maybe that’s why, unlike the other children, he didn’t seem to be very surprised.

…I thought that was the case, but come to think of it, Jake hadn’t been to our house all these days. Oh dear.

Eventually, I got up from my place.

“I see. Since everyone wants this… let’s go to my room.”

All the children stood up from their places as if they had been waiting for me.

Just then, I saw the maid bringing refreshments, and stopped in surprise.

“I want to go to my room with my friends.”

I shrugged my shoulders and explained the situation.

“Oh my, Miss. So, do you want me to get these sweets and tea… to the room?”

“Yes, please do!”

Actually, there’s no such thing as a tea table in my room… but maybe they would probably enjoy tea time on my desk.

Just in time, Cedric returned from a tour of the place, and we all left the drawing room.

* * *

After a while, the children who arrived in my room were talking about their feelings one by one.

“Oh, this is what a noble girl’s room looks like! It’s ordinary.”

Well, it’s not that.

I couldn’t even correct Ninaina’s misunderstanding.

“Oh, it’s so spacious! Besides, it’s a really cute and nice room…!”

“Well, it’s not bad. But I think my room is a little bit bigger.”

Alice glanced in admiration, her eyes twinkling, and Cedric snorted, saying hateful things.

And Nicholas was observing the little bookshelf on one side of my room.

Then he asked me a question.

“Hmm, do you have any books to read?”

Actually, I was worried about it from a while ago, about the fact that Nicholas was empty-handed.

Maybe it was because he read all the books he brought to kindergarten today.

Perhaps that’s why Nicholas was interested in my books.

“…Uh, you may read all the books here. Your Highness  the Prince.”

At my answer, Nicholas nodded his head and began to take out the books on the bookshelf, one by one.

After a while.

“Is there anything other than storybooks? Like a history book of the Marquisate family. I’m curious.”

Well, there’s no way that would be on my bookshelf!

I was momentarily perplexed, but quickly responded.

“You probably have to go to another library for that.”

Nicholas put on a disappointed face at my answer.

Ah, I guess fairy tale books don’t fit his level…

“Well, have you already read all the children’s books here?”

I asked a question out of curiosity.

Was Nicholas not interested in reading all these books before?

“……no?”

On the contrary, a counter-answer came back. With a slightly sullen look.

“I’ve never read something as uninteresting as a fairy tale book. Never.”

From birth, a genius seems to skip children’s books and read other books right away.

‘Wait, you haven’t read it?’

After grumbling internally for a while, I quickly found a loophole in that statement.

“If, if you have never read it, how about reading it this time? It might be more fun than you think, Prince.”

To which Nicholas answered:

“…How can a book without practical knowledge be interesting? Well, even so, I can’t refuse if you recommend it so much. I will try it this one time.”

Saying so, Nicholas pulled out ten children’s books from my bookshelf all at once and took them to the table.

Apparently, Nicholas was not interested in tea time.

The maids had set on the table in my room delicious sweets and a steaming teapot.

“Well, it’s not much, but eat a little.” I said with a smile after the maids left.

Somehow, I felt like an aristocrat hosting a social gathering.

In reality, it was just a small group of kindergarten classmates enjoying tea time…

‘No, by the way. They’re not the ones who’ll be taking the lead in imperial society in the future..’

As I had just brought the teacup to my mouth, I suddenly realized.

I’ve been living without thinking too much about the original story these days, so I guess I forgot about it for a while.

“I like the smell of tea. The scones are delicious too.”

Like last time, I was worried about the food, but fortunately, Ninaina was thinking that the prepared things weren’t bad.

“Hehe, I’m glad you liked it.”

I replied with a smile.

Even though I didn’t make it, I was proud.

Our mansion’s chef’smakes delicious food! Even the princess would admit it.

The tea time was pleasant.

Jake also gave a thumbs up saying that our cookies were delicious, and Cedric just ate a lot without saying a word.

As the cookie plates in front of Cedric and Alice were almost empty, I noticed that Alice wasn’t eating much because of Cedric’s speed and called the maid.

“Any other snacks besides sweets, please! Something like jelly or pudding!”

By the way, the jelly made by the chef at our house is really delicious.

Even I, who doesn’t like sweets, couldn’t resist from jelly going into my mouth nonstop.
