Kalis stared at Seria for a moment and then opened his mouth in a clerical tone.

“You don’t have to give me a handkerchief. Stern.”

“…?”

‘Who said I would give it to him?’

Seria was about to walk away, ignoring Kalis, when Marquis Kellyden, his wife, and the others approached as if they had timed it. The one who led them at the front was none other than the Marquis.

“I see you were talking intimately with the Marquis of Haneton. It’s a good thing that few people want to dance with you at the banquet.”

Seria blinked a few times.

“It would be even better to dance with my father.”

At these words, the Marquis and Marchioness’s faces were stained with bewilderment. Especially the Marquis’s face was spectacular.

It was as if he had heard something he didn’t want to hear at all.

“I’m his daughter, yet I’ve never danced with him. That’s a bit…”

The Marchioness immediately frowned and asked with a smile.

“You want your father to dance with you? Are you going to take away my partner?”

“Or…well…there’s also Nissos.”

“Keck!”

Nissos coughed. Seria couldn’t say that she could dance with Cassius. Because her body began to tremble just as he approached and stood near her. Besides, if she mentioned Cassius, his fiancé would probably say something about it again.

“He’s too old…dancing with him will make you look like a child. It’s a good thing that the Marquis of Haneton is here. Why don’t you dance with him?”

‘With Kalis?’

This was another completely unexpected recommendation.

“It’s alright. I have Sir Alliot.”

“Is he the Knight Commander of Berg?”

“Yes.”

Alliot would not be bad. As a Knight Commander of the Berg, he was not inferior to any lady. He was also tall and good looking. Seria was just worried that he didn’t bring any suit for the dance.

‘I’m going to ask the old butler. If he doesn’t provide any clothes, I’m going to blow up the Kellyden Castle.

Is it okay to treat people like this? It’s sad that we’re even family. If Lesche didn’t let Alliot come with me, I might have to stand by the wall until the end of the dance.’

The Marquis seemed to have nothing more to say. He hesitated.

“But you are the highest-ranking guest here today. I’m not feeling good about that. Why don’t you go with Marquis Hanetone?”

Seria answered politely.

“Yes, I will. You’ve taken such great care of me.”

“…. Is that right?”

“Yes.”

After nodding, Seria walked closer to the Marchioness. After she bowed slightly to her, she said in a low voice.

“Marchioness, I understand that you don’t like me.”

The Marchioness’s face hardened.

That’s right. The original Seria would never say something like this because it would hurt her pride.
