To the Vardmoi Mansion in the Capital
Once the loading and unloading of the cargo were finished, it was finally time to head towards the Vardmoi residence.
It was fortunate that Alizée knew the location as well.
The large mansion, the Vardmoi residence, seemed to be situated near the noble district after entering from the commoner district and coming close to the Royal castle.
There was enough space in the mansion's grounds to park the Lumite Grand Wing.
Ah, s...

Arrival at the Capital
After the incident with Lehreta, we encountered monsters several times, but we managed to reach the Capital before the gates closed at dusk.
However, as dusk approached, our super-sized magic vehicle appeared, attracting a large crowd of spectators.
We couldn't move forward easily because people gathered on both sides, though wisely no one stood in front of the vehicle.
Eventually, guards from the city gate arrived and dispersed the spect...

Assault in the Alley
At the dwarves' workshop, Sister Emilia and I discussed tool making with Emmy until early afternoon.
Realizing we might be interfering with her work if we stayed longer, we decided to leave the workshop.
As we walked through narrow alleys toward the main street, I sensed something amiss around us.
Feeling a sense of unease, I grabbed Sister Emilia's hand and quickened my pace.
"Why are you walking so fast all of a sudden?"
"I se...

Sneaking Out from the Castle.
The large order for magic vehicles from the Bardhain Empire fell through thanks to the cooperation of the Seventh Prince Adolf.
As expected, the Empire's diplomats returned to the Capital.
Prince Adolf remained as a guest at the Royal castle.
Given how busy things had been with the magic vehicle issue and my frequent stays in my room, I decided to stretch my legs and slip out of the castle.
I opened my door, stuck my head ...

The Response of the Seventh Prince Adolf.
For a while, the Seventh Prince Adolf remained motionless, stiffened.
But somehow, he regained his consciousness and wobbled over to sit on the sofa.
I called out to the Seventh Prince Adolf, who was still in a daze.
"Are you alright?"
"Ah... this is the first girl to clearly reject my confession. I'm a bit shocked, but I'll be fine."
"My sister is still not ready to let go of her younger brother."

A girl’s problem.
Once we had settled on a simple plan, lunchtime was almost over, so we decided to disband.
"Just between us, Rosarin-chan, who do you think the culprit is?"
"... I don't have any proof, but I don't think it's the daughter of Count Diner."
That ritual is too complex for an individual to develop. Even though she's a member of the Rotten Women's Association, Rinka testified that she's not knowledgeable about magic, so she probably isn't t...

Find the culprit!
I am being scolded and made to sit seiza-style by my older brother, a friend who acts like an older brother, and a motherly friend. But it can't be helped. Doing something out of the ordinary might alert the culprit and cause trouble.
By the way, the three main types of magic that manipulate people are:
- Subordination

- Control

Mutsumine, who had carried Sai out, quickly returned. The door was open, but he seemed hesitant to enter.
"Bathroom."
When I said that, he hurried over to me. He gently picked me up and took me there. I couldn't sit down, so he had to support me, even inside the bathroom. Damn it~
"You want to go by yourself to the bathroom, right?"

I fell asleep again in the middle of talking with Rikimaru and woke up on the bed.
This time, Mutsumine was sitting by the bed, and Sai was sleeping on the sofa.
It's surprising to see people I rarely encounter.
"Are you awake? Feeling okay?"
Mutsumine asked in a gentle voice.
Yeah, I'm okay. Just can't get my body to move.
When I nodded, Mutsumine looked slightly relieved and carried Sai over from the sofa.
Sai's eyes were closed, ...

I was so happy that I started purring. Unfortunately, I fell asleep while he was still here, but he promised to come again tomorrow.
When I woke up, it was bright, so it must have been the next day. Kufufu.

I was caught by Hiiro, who was sleeping next to me.

Adry-sama let out these words after teaching him the secrets of Clear magic and hesitantly eating despite being intimidated by the raw eggs.
Adry-sama is quite soft-hearted...
It took him a while to take the first bite, but seeing Sei actually eat encouraged him.
He felt like he couldn't lose once he saw Sei starting to eat comfortably.

I savored the delightful marriage of beef and yolk with a dreamy expression before appealing to Alicia-sama with a smile.

After showing Alizée the letter from Marquis Vardmoi at the Trade Guild, they quickly loaded the Lumite Grand Wing with meat and materials.
Also, it seems Alizée will be accompanying us all the way to the Capital.
For such a significant transport, it would be suspicious for merchants to travel without a personal escort, which is why Alizée will be driving, making it easier for me but leaving me with nothing to do...

A few days after getting the okay sign from Alizée for the update on my leather armor, a messenger from the Marquis arrived, saying that he wanted to meet.
There wasn't any reason to refuse, so I decided to go right away, but this time it seems I won't be going by carriage or anything like that.
They want me to come using the Lumite Grand Wing.
And, I'm supposed to dress as an adventurer, not in formal wear.

In the end, I couldn't get through it.
It felt like everyone from the Wildcat Cat’s was pressing me that my plain leather armor would be inadequate for future escort duties.
The only ally I had was Talat.
But since Talat couldn't speak, I was essentially on my own.
There was no helping it, so I took the best part of the Frost Wyvern's leather and returned.
It's time to start making my leather armor.

After that, I continued to tease Duke Carlisle's son. He seemed to enjoy our conversations and wasn't bothered unless I threatened him. Surprisingly, he has a broad perspective and isn't that bad. And it's quite fun to tease him.
At lunch, his attendants weren't around, and he was in a bit of a bind, so I invited him.

Normally, we have a very bad relationship and never exchange greetings. G...

At some point, I'd like to move back to the previous size of estate, but due to security concerns, Akemi judged this to be better, so it seems we won't be moving for a while.
While caught up in the move, Naruhito gradually became more and more immobile. It accumulated to the p...

Ever since moving into the special dorm, we often prepared our own meals, which meant we frequently made egg dishes.
