Episode 126 It’s pretty nice to see you smiling

Friday, the day before going out.

I had a fulfilling day today. I did some paperwork and had lunch with the Empress and her maids.

The reason I emphasize here that the paperwork was ‘moderate’ was because the amount of paperwork was truly moderate.

Until just before I went to the Kingdom of Sergel, I had to process 800 to 1,000 pages every day, but these days, it’s only about 600 at most.

‘What kind of wind is blowing?’

Well, I had no particular complaints.

What could be happier than receiving the same amount of money but reducing your workload?

Furthermore, Flora and Mulia seemed quite satisfied with the current situation.

I’ll have to check the mood soon and ask Cecilia.

After dinner, I went to the bathroom for the first time in a while and took a bath. As I sat in my room reading a book I hadn’t read before, it was almost 10pm, my bedtime.

After I closed the book, I checked to see if my bankbook was in the desk drawer. The bankbook was still where it was left yesterday.

‘I must take care of it and not forget it tomorrow.’

After closing the desk drawer, I lay down on the bed.

‘That’s right, what should I have for lunch tomorrow?’

Il Raina will also be coming along, so it would be a good idea to choose something she would like as well…….

In cases like this, it’s quicker to ask directly.

I put the black whistle I had around my neck in my mouth and blew.

“Did you call me, Secretary?”

Ilayna appeared next to the bed in the blink of an eye. I raised her upper body and looked her in the eye.

“Ilayna. “I’m going to have a very important discussion.”

Then a serious light immediately appeared in her eyes.

“Which one is it?”

Even his voice was lower than usual.

“You are planning to go out with me tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

“What do you like for lunch?”

“… ….”

Ilayna trembled her eyebrows. Her face showed a look of confusion as she had been asked a question she had never thought of.

“Is my opinion important?”

“Yes. I can eat just about anything. “Do you have anything to cover?”

“I also eat just about anything.”

She responded in a calm tone.

“Then is there any food that appeals to you?”

“… ….”

Unlike before, this time she kept her mouth shut. When I suddenly asked about the menu, he seemed to be thinking a lot.

I leisurely waited for her answer.

After some time had passed, Ileina opened her lips.

“There is nothing in particular… ….”

“Anything is okay.”

“I will eat the same thing as the secretary.”

Having said this, I can’t recommend it any more.

I nodded at her, saying I understood.

“Have a peaceful night, Secretary.”

After bowing her head, Rayna instantly disappeared with her invisibility cloak.

I lay down on the bed again and let out a soft moan.

“Hmm… ….”

I tried to decide on the lunch menu in advance, but as I kept thinking about it, annoyance washed over me like a tide.

If this is going to happen, I should just go to a restaurant that stands out a bit tomorrow.

After gathering my thoughts, I snuggled into the blanket and closed my eyelids.

I had a simple breakfast of soup and a few slices of baguette in my room.

After choosing an appropriate outfit from among the civilian clothes, I rubbed my hair with my hand in front of the mirror a few times. After doing this, it became a bit more noticeable.

Finally, preparations for going out were completed by packing the imperial palace account and secret bank account in the inside pocket of the jacket.

I left the room and walked down the hallway. On the way, I ran into Flora who had just come out of the room.

“Mr. Luke. Good morning.”

“Yes. “Good morning to you too, Lady Flora.”

I tried to pass by, but Flora suddenly blocked my path.

“Lady Flora?”

“Hmm… ….”

Flora suddenly looked me up and down with wide eyes.

“It looks like you’re going out?”

“Yes. “I received permission to go out from His Majesty the day before yesterday.”

As soon as she heard my answer, Flora puffed out her cheeks and showed a look of dissatisfaction.

“When I asked you to go out with me, you refused. “I was a little hurt.”

“Ah… ….”

As I was wondering how to comfort her, I decided to tell her honestly.

“Actually, I had some personal work to do today.”

“Personally?”

“Yes. “I have somewhere to stop by.”

“Then there is nothing we can do.”

Flora let out a short sigh.

“But we’re all planning to go out together next week, so let’s hang out then.”

“Then you have to listen to what I want. “You understand, right?”

“Of course.”

Only then did a smile bloom on Flora’s face.

After greeting her, I came out of her imperial palace. Then, they boarded a carriage that traveled around the imperial palace grounds and moved outside the imperial palace.

“The weather is nice today again.”

It’s the perfect weather to go to a secret bank.

I walked to the carriage stop while humming. There I rented a carriage and headed to a village on the eastern outskirts of Delesson.

“Wait here.”

After asking the coachman, I jumped out of the carriage.

This is a place that never changes no matter when I come.

I walked to the building where the secret bank was located. Meanwhile, Ilaina’s voice was heard from the left.

“I sense the presence of someone nearby who seems to be targeting the secretary.”

“How many people?”

“There are two people.”

In short, it meant to be careful.

But maybe it’s because Ilayna is there. To be honest, I wasn’t worried at all.

“I’m not too worried because you’re here.”

“Still, it would be a good idea to be careful.”

Even though she expressed her honest feelings, Ileina’s tone was filled with concern.

After a while, we arrived at the building where the secret bank was located. I told her to wait outside her and then went straight inside her.

There was no decoration inside the building, but I had already been here several times, so I had become accustomed to this view for a long time.

“I came to meet the owl.”

As soon as I said the greeting, the floor of the building slowly turned with a roaring sound. After a while, an employee wearing a monocle appeared along with the bank counter.

I handed him both the imperial palace account and the secret bank account at the same time.

“I would like to transfer the 20,000 gold contained herein to someone I know. Is that possible?”

“Does he have a secret bank account?”

“I’m not sure about that.”

“Then do you mind if a fee is charged?”

I said it was okay. Even if it’s a fee, it won’t cost a lot of money.

The employee asked for the personal information of the person trying to send money.

“I want to send it to Count Ponta Huxley, who lives in the Kingdom of Sergel. “He is currently working as the King’s secretary.”

“Do I have to send money all the way to the Kingdom of Sergel…? ….”

Why are you suddenly slurring your words? I feel anxious for no reason.

However, given the nature of a secret bank, it may not be possible…….

After a short period of time, the employee opened his mouth.

“If you want to transfer 20,000 gold to the Kingdom of Sergel, a separate fee of 50 gold will be charged. Do you mind?”

“50 Gold?”

“Yes.”

The fee is higher than I expected…….

The employee just waited for my answer in a businesslike manner.

But I didn’t worry. Since there was no way to send money to Ponta other than a secret bank, I had to cry and eat mustard.

“I will do it.”

Then the employee presented me with a contract for remittance. I listened to his explanation, filled in the blank spaces, and left my signature at the end.

Then the employee took the two bankbooks I brought with him. After waiting for a while, he gave the bankbook back to me.

When I opened the account and checked, the withdrawal of 20,000 gold was recorded in the secret bank account, and the money was recorded in the palace account as if it were still there.

Cecilia hasn’t checked her bank account in the past few months, but she’s preparing it like this just in case.

“I’ll come again next time.”

“Yes. Please visit us at your convenience.”

The employee bowed and bowed. I responded with a silent bow and left the building.

Then, right next to me, Ilayna reported in a calm tone.

“Secretary. “We kicked out two suspicious people.”

“Good job.”

After nodding, I took out my pocket watch. It seemed like it would be lunch time when we went back to Deleson.

“Ilayna. “Now let’s go have lunch.”

“Yes. “Secretary.”

The carriage carrying me stopped at the central square in downtown Delezón. After paying the carriage fare to the driver, I walked down the street where restaurants were gathered.

After walking for a while, I entered a deserted alley. It was to allow Ileina to reveal herself.

“Ilayna. “Please show yourself here.”

“Yes. “Secretary.”

She appeared before her eyes in an instant.

“… ….”

It’s a little annoying to wear tights that stick to the whole body…….

It’s good when I see it on my own, but it’s a bit awkward for others to see.

“Ilayna. “Is there a change of clothes?”

“Yes.”

She pulled out her commoner dress from her subspace pocket. Then she put the dress on over the tights.

After doing this, it became much more normal than before.

“Let’s go.”

“Where are you going?”

“Just. “To get in where I can see it.”

After leaving the alley, we walked leisurely. Then a restaurant sign came into view.

‘It looks a bit expensive, but… ….’

After thinking for a moment at the door, I decided to go in. Because I wanted to make Ilaina eat good food.

There were many customers inside, but fortunately there was an empty seat in the corner.

We sat facing each other. The waiter came up to us and handed us a menu.

“I will do the same.”

She spoke without even looking at the menu. I’m just putting into practice what I announced yesterday.

Then what is better…….

While I was lost in thought, a beef tenderloin steak came into view.

I ate deer meat last time, so I guess I should try beef this time. I also like beef at the same time.

“Two medium tenderloin steaks.”

After ordering, she drank the water the waiter brought her.

“Ilayna. “Have you ever eaten beef?”

She asked just in case and got a somewhat unexpected answer.

“I sometimes ate beef jerky.”

Ah, it was the concept of emergency food. For that matter, they used quite high-quality ingredients.

After waiting for a long time, the tenderloin steak arrived.

“What do you think of beef as steak?”

“It smells good…” ….”

Ilayna showed a look of wonder.

“It seems like a good house.”

“I will eat well, Secretary.”

Ileina held the fork and knife in her hands and carefully cut them. I couldn’t help but chuckle at the somewhat awkward appearance.

She cut her steak into bite-size pieces and took a piece of meat with her fork.

“!”

As soon as she put the meat in her mouth, Ilaina opened her eyes wide.

It’s cute to look at it like this.

She chewed her meat for a long time and then swallowed it.

“How does it taste?”

“It’s different from beef jerky… …. “You can feel this taste in beef.”

“It depends on how you cook it.”

I also asked what was better compared to the deer meat I ate last time.

“I think beef is better.”

“Then, come here with me sometime from now on.”

After hearing my suggestion, Ileina blinked her eyelids. As if this was my first time hearing such a proposal.

“Still…… “Are you okay?”

“Of course. You’re always working hard for me. “This arrangement is nothing.”

“… ….”

Ilayna couldn’t make any sound.

I’m touched, am I caught? I wish it was like that…….

“Thank you, Secretary Nedville.”

A faint smile appeared on Ilaina’s lips.

Thanks to you, I learned anew that her smile is quite nice to see.
