Jessie, who brought Berry's letter, didn't look bright. She still seemed displeased to have let Berry go the same way. Aria, who roughly read a letter signed with a seal that she had sent from the Kingdom of Croa, said soothingly,

"Jessie, you don't have to be so angry."

"But I still can't believe she went abroad safely after she did that terrible thing to you."

'How can I not love Jessie for her sake?' Aria, determined to give her a very big present when all was done, left the room for Emma's judgment today. The Countess looked a little dark when she saw Aria on the first floor.

"Aria, since the results are fixed anyway, I don't think you need to go... Are you sure it's okay?"

"... Yes, they may need my testimony."

It was already a set result. The Countess discouraged her because the victim did not have to attend, but Aria's determination to see Emma's end was firm.

Mielle's eyes were red and they were also swollen as if she had cried for days. She must have tried to cover them with her hat as much as she could, but she could not escape the eyes of Aria, who had watched her with the hawk's eyes.

'You want to scream that she didn't do it.'

It was obvious to see that she sometimes bit her lips and trembled. She might see Emma's neck cut off. And the main enemy was right in front of her.

"... I'm not feeling well so I'll leave in a little while."

'Yeah, I guess you don't want to ride a carriage with me.'

Emma had been taking care of Mielle since birth, and the Count understood her feelings and nodded to do it.

As soon as he returned from the academy, a terrible thing happened, and Cain turned around and looked at Mielle and clicked his tongue. It was nowhere to be seen that he had cared so much about his sister in the past.

The Count spoke to Aria in a friendly way that might be only for Mielle, "Aria, it's going to be hard, but hang in there a little."

"Thank you..."

Inside, she wanted to hold a party and drink a toast but ended up quietly answering, with a gentle smile. Thanks to Aria's acting as a poor girl, the road to the court was silent. Even after her arrival, she was able to play the heroine of the perfect tragedy with Cain's desperate escort.

"Oh, my God, the victim, Lady Roscent is here."

"Where...? No, Lady Roscent is so beautiful?!"

"It must be jealousy too, as it is rumored. She was really beautiful."

Aria's appearance made a noise in the audience's seat. Her unadorned beauty added weight to her sorrow.

Cain, who glances at her, asked with a very friendly face, "Are you all right?"

"... Yes? Oh, yes. Of course."

In the past, Cain's contemptuous eyes had been on her. The look in his eyes, which he had treated as if she had been filth defaming the family's reputation.

Aria, who shed tears that didn't seem to come, in everyone's sympathy, waited for the trial to begin. It took some time to start as she arrived a little early, and Mielle, who had a late start, appeared just before the trial began.
