Emily Denkart.

As Duchess of Dencart, she is the first to dominate social circles, she has earned the respect and admiration of aristocratic society.

She has rare platinum hair and a neat and luxurious appearance, beauty is always a good resource useful on various occasions.

"Are you Robell?"

So, the Duchess in front of me, shows me her great reputation.

Her tea-drinking movements were impeccably graceful and her subdued smile was full of grace.

Is this the epitome of a noble lady?

But, they must not be fooled. She is capable of bribing the only person one trusts, to poison him, is the one who will take you by the ankle each time, without revealing himself.

She was that kind of person. It is thorough and subtle enough that no one would suspect it.

"From what I've heard, you're pretty smart."

... Shee is also one of the main villains.

Well, since I became Edrick's assistant, I assumed she would call me at least once.

However, it was annoying to climb more floors just to see her instead of Edrick.

Right now I would like to be with Edrick healing me...

But right now... I must sit with the lady ...

Contrary to her intentions, I lowered my head as if nervous.

Pretend to be a young girl, showing

my immature side. That way, I'll have him put it down and find an opening. Fortunately, it seemed plausible that I had achieved my goal.

She offered me a snack, seeing that I was restless, she urged me not to get nervous.

I pretended not to notice that detail. I slowly reached my arm out to the plate and ate the cookies one by one.

'Oh yummy'

A genuine smile escaped me thanks to the poignant taste.

My expressions naturally loosened.

When half the plate is empty, I order the maid to save some separate cookies for me.

The atmosphere became warm, just as I intended.

"You are a very cute boy, feel free to eat more."

"I'm fine, I've had enough to eat. However, m-ma'am... why did you call me?"

When I asked her pretending to be scared, she replied with a generous voice.

-" heard that Edrick has changed a lot since you arrived."

"That's it..."

"I know everything. I told the butler to reward you for your good work, but no matter how hard I thought about it, I couldn't just sit still. This is my son's business, so I wanted to show you my gratitude."

The exclusive maids of the Duchess placed two leather bags, when they left them on the table their 'gratitude'could be heard.

Listening to the sound, it could be said that it was considerable wealth.

'In short, are you saying you want to buy me?'

"This...

I quickly waved my hand and muttered something I didn't want.

"I can't ... take it ... I haven't done anything..."
