Chapter 105 Please Don’t Think Too Much
That evening, a grand banquet was held in the royal palace.
The star of the dinner was, of course, Cecilia. Before dinner, Vettel offered us a toast.
“Good.”
Cecilia nodded her head. I told Flora, Mulia, and the rest of the delegation what Vettel had proposed.
Only then did the rest of the people grab the wine glasses placed in front of me.
Vettel finally stood up with a wine glass in her hand. He cleared his throat with a clearing of his throat and then recited a short toast.
“May there be infinite glory in Sergel Kingdom and Eckhart Empire!”
Cecilia translated Vettel’s toast in the imperial language. Then we clinked wine glasses and toasted.
After a sumptuous dinner, it was time to showcase the gifts brought from the Eckhart Empire.
“Then the central entrance on the first floor would be nice.”
“Good. I will instruct my employees to bring gifts.”
Having said that, Cecilia gave her instructions to her maid who served on her.
Vettel ordered the butler of the palace to prepare chairs for those gathered here and a decorative table to place presents.
After a while, chairs for a total of 12 people were placed in a row, and a decorative table was set up in front of them.
Cecilia and Vettel occupied the middle two places.
“Wait a minute and my employees will prepare it for you.”
“Yes. I’m looking forward to it, Your Majesty.”
It wasn’t long before the employees entered the central entrance on the first floor with gifts. They carefully placed what they had brought on the table, one by one.
I was quite surprised inside when I saw that.
They were gold artifacts and crystal stones made by the empire’s top technicians, as well as luxurious clothes made of silk and various special products from the empire.
“I hope it’s something that meets the King’s expectations.”
“Oh. I want to see it up close.”
When Vettel stood up, Cecilia and the others stood up as well.
…… If it’s going to be like this, why did you prepare the chair?
Vettel looked at the gift slowly, and Cecilia explained it in her proud tone. Thanks to that, Vettel showed great satisfaction.
“I didn’t know that Her Majesty would bring so many precious gifts.”
“Isn’t this level of sincerity necessary for her historic first meeting?”
Vettel was satisfied, so Cecilia’s expression brightened even more than before.
Vettel instructed Fonta to keep these gifts safe.
The first night Cecilia arrived at her palace ended satisfactorily.

“… ….”
I lay down on the bed to go to sleep, but for some reason I couldn’t sleep.
Could it be because of the caffeine in black tea?
…… The credibility is too low to say. It’s because I slept well even after drinking black tea at night.
“Whoa.”
I turned on my side and lay upright. Then I closed my eyes, but I didn’t even find a yawn, let alone drowsy.
I really don’t know why.
I pulled off the blanket and got up from the bed.
A kettle and a cup of water were placed on the bedside table just in time. As I poured a glass of lukewarm water down my throat, I felt my mind clearer.
‘I won’t be able to sleep like this.’
I should at least get some fresh air.
Thought so, I got up from the bed.
It was dark in the hallway, but my eyes were bright at night, so I didn’t have to worry about getting lost.
Shall we go to the garden?
Or on the balcony?
As I was moving my steps while pondering, I noticed a human figure approaching from the other side.
‘Who are you?’
Isn’t it time all the employees are asleep?
I stopped and stared at the figure. After a while, I recognized who the person was.
“The Lady of Count Fordward?”
“Ah, that must have been Secretary Nedville.”
She came closer to me.
She was in the dark, but I could see that she was wearing a very thin nightgown dress made of silk.
Thanks to the clearly visible curves of the chest…….
‘It looks like he’s becoming more and more perverted. Maybe it’s because of his mood?’
“What are you doing at this hour?”
Receiving her question, I quickly cleared the irreverent thoughts from my head.
“I couldn’t sleep, so I tried to get some fresh air.”
“Ah. You did.”
“What about the Countess?”
When I asked back, Mulia hesitated a bit.
“Actually, like the secretary, I tried to get some air. But I don’t know where to go, so I need to find a way…….”
“You must have been lost.”
“… ….”
Mulia remained silent, but this was tantamount to affirming my words.
“Where are you going? Garden? Or a balcony?”
This time I asked her intentions.
“I will follow as the secretary guides you.”
“Then let’s go to the balcony. There’s a place I’ve been keeping an eye on.”
If I had been alone, I would have gone to the garden.
But walking a lot with Mulia, who couldn’t even rest properly, didn’t seem like a good option.
“Are you on the bright side at night?”
“No… ….”
Mullia shook her head slowly. Then she can’t just ask me to come along.
I held out her right hand cautiously toward her.
“Would you like to hold my hand? It will be easier for you to follow that way.”
“Yes. Thank you for your consideration.”
Mulia quickly grabbed my hand.
Like Flora, you have small, soft hands.
‘Maybe she is more fragile than Flora… ….’
I lightly gripped her hand and moved forward slowly, matching her stride.
We arrived at our destination, the balcony. I unlocked the lock and carefully opened the door.
“Go in first. Watch your feet.”
I first let her out onto her balcony and then came out. Of course, I forgot to close the door.
“… ….”
She didn’t say anything as she headed for the railing.
She stared at the back for a moment, then raised her eyes to the sky.
It’s cloudy today.
When the moonlight is bright, you can see the palace grounds at a glance…….
“It sucks.”
After biting my lip in regret, I headed towards Mulia.
“It’s cool at night.”
As we approached her, Mullia spoke her first. She moved her head slowly from side to side with her hand on her railing.
“When there is moonlight, you can see not only the royal palace grounds, but also the stream beyond the fence.”
“I see… ….”
“Today is unfortunate.”
“It’s okay, secretary.”
Mulia answered in a gentle tone.
After that, silence passed between us.
Since it wasn’t a silence caused by awkwardness, it was an extremely natural silence, so my heart was at ease.
“Secretary Nedville.”
At her sudden call, I turned her head toward her.
“You had a lot of trouble here, didn’t you?”
As Mullia threw her question mark, she looked at me.
“Hmm. To be honest, it wasn’t a huge struggle. His Highness, King Bethel, has a similar personality, so we could communicate well.”
“I’m glad I did.”
There was a sincere look of relief in her light purple eyes.
“In fact, rather than me, the Lady of Count Fordward suffered more.”
“Yes.”
Oh. An immediate answer without a second’s hesitation.
“You must be very tired. Are you okay? The journey to get here must have been a hard road.”
“I am tired. But for some reason, I can’t sleep.”
“Do you have anything to think about?”
“No. It’s not like that…….”
And then she let out a low moan.
I stood next to her, with Mullia holding her forehead, watching her agonize. Looking at it like this, I thought it was cute without even realizing it.
“Yeah, but… ….”
Mulia suddenly blurted out her words.
I didn’t rush and waited until she came up with her sentence.
“There is something I realized clearly after the secretary left first.”
“Which is it?”
What are you trying to say?
I stared at her face with anticipation in my heart.
After a moment’s pause, she raised her voice.
“That. It may sound a little strange, but…… This time I realized that I couldn’t do it without the secretary…….”
It was a timbre that clearly conveyed his shyness.
Is it because of that?
Even in my chest, a feeling of embarrassment surged up.
“I guess that’s how important I am. This is really embarrassing. hahahaha.”
I let out a laugh to cover up the awkward atmosphere. Unfortunately, however, Mulia did not respond.
On the contrary, in a more serious tone than before,
“Right. Secretary.”
Isn’t that what you’re talking about!
‘It was a big deal. It suddenly became awkward…….’
“… ….”
“… ….”
Mulia also hurriedly took care of her, perhaps sensing her strangeness.
“Ah, I didn’t mean anything strange. So please don’t think too deeply. You know?”
“Yes, yes. I tend to take things at face value, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“Now, shall we go in? I think I’m about to fall asleep.”
Mulia jerked her body in the direction of the doorway.
Well, rather than falling asleep, the desire to escape from the awkward atmosphere is probably greater.
If you can guess why, that’s how I feel right now.
“I’ll show you to your room.”
I held out her right hand to her again.
Mulia looked down at her hand for a moment and then took her hand.
“Yes. Thank you, Secretary.”

Thanks to her Luke’s guidance, Mullia was able to return to her room comfortably.
She said good-night to Luke and went straight to bed. She took off her shoes and laid herself slowly on her bed.
With her thin blanket pulled over her neck, she looked up at her ceiling.
“… ….”
The conversation on her balcony ran through her head without realizing it.
The wind slowly heated both of Mulia’s cheeks.
‘Why did he suddenly say that?’
It was true that I was glad to see the secretary after a long time.
But…… That said, there was no need to pour out her heart, saying that she was suddenly a necessary person.
“Ugh. I’m embarrassed… ….”
She said just in case she didn’t think too hard about it. But she wasn’t sure if it would run like her own mind.
Mulia pulled the blanket over her face and closed her eyes tightly to help her fall asleep quickly.
But she tossed and turned for a long time and couldn’t sleep.
