✔DROP!! A TALE OF THE FRAGRANCE PRINCESS

Volume 1, Act 07: A Light Crimson Petal and a Letter

The prototype glass container was completed, ――― Cordelia received that message from Ronnie five days after shed gone out to the city.

That was the first thing that Ronnie reported to Cordelia when hed appeared in front of her, and then he made a suggestion.

So, Id like to invite Master to the mansion soon; would that be alright?

Cant I go to the city?

You cant. The master will kill me, so please give me a break. If is it not fine to invite him here, then please consider that you wouldnt be able to receive the glass.

Recently, after her morning lecturers were over, Cordelia received basic training in analysis magic from Ronnie; not in the greenhouse but rather, in the new laboratory shed received from Elvis.

The new laboratory shed received was originally one of the detached buildings, with a structure consisting of two floors and a basement.

It must have been renovated since all the floors now only had one room. It was a useful laboratory, equipped with chairs and desks; there was even a washroom on the first floor.

Cordelia used the whole first floor for experiments and a portion of the second floor was made into a storage room. She hadnt used the basement yet, but she planned on making it into a storage warehouse.

(But Otou-sama, just when did you prepare all this? Your daughter is impressed.)

This gift, just like the greenhouse, which was arranged unnoticed, even though she was always at home, astonished her.

But she couldnt stay surprised. Her sense of purpose swelled up inside of her when she received this, With this, I can quickly make the poultice for Otou-sama! She felt delighted at the excellent news that Ronnie had brought to her; after all, if there were no tools, then she wouldnt be able to make any progress.

However, she felt a little disappointed that Master was going to deliver the glass. She wanted to use going to get the tools as a chance to go into the city so that she could see the townscape that she couldnt take her time seeing last time.

On her previous trip, she had a moments free time before going into the workshop and inside of the workshop, but it wasnt enough for her to walk around the city. The merchants, who visited the mansion told her about popular goods, but there were many things she couldnt understand unless she saw them with her own eyes was her cover story, but most of it was just because she was purely interested in the goods.

But it was difficult for her to do so when she saw how hard Ronnie was shaking his head, and how pale he got from her words. So, Cordelia stopped asking for the impossible.

It wasnt fun, but it wasnt like she couldnt understand the reason why Ronnie refused.

A ladys incognito escorts had to make sure that nothing happened 『by chance』and on top of that, Elvis was home, unlike last time. To prevent Elvis from noticing, she also couldnt meet any of the other servants in the city by chance. In short, the risk of him finding out that she snuck out was very high. It wasnt unreasonable for Ronnie to be so unwilling.

To begin with, she felt like Ronnie looked at her as if she was a troublemaker. She definitely wont behave herself, now will she? he looked at her like that.

She wouldnt say anything selfish that would be dislikeable.

Yes, that was why she maintained self-control for that matter.

Being able to read between the lines and understand TPO 1) was also an indispensable skill for a lady. That was why, no matter how many times Ronnie rudely said, Ojou-sama is unexpectedly untalented with analysis magic, arent you? as if he was impressed, Cordelia eluded it with a wry smile. Theres no need to say it like that; you could have said it a bit more indirectly She definitely wouldnt say something like that. He was the teacher who Cordelia had requested, and she believed that what he said was probably correct. Cordelia couldnt really understand the magic that Ronnie talked about.
