Mielle opened her mouth to try to change the mood. "Wouldn't the woman be lying? It may be a bluff. His Highness hasn't said anything yet. Maybe she's running around alone."

But the more Mielle spoke, the worse Isis felt. It was because she knew it wasn't. There was a past in which she could guess. It was the engagement ceremony of the Marquis of Vincent.

For Isis, who had secretly captured the situation in the garden, this situation did not appear to be false or pretentious. 'Didn't he even say he had no intention of marrying herself on the spot?' As she could not show any more ugly looks, Isis hid her trembling hands under the table and said with a deep sigh, "... We have to do whatever we can to separate them, for the honor of the nobility."

"... Yes, you're right."

"I'll figure out how to do it by myself, so please persuade the Count as much as you can."

Now there was no Emma to help her, Mielle nodded and expressed her sympathy, because what Isis said was quite natural. But she had already failed a few times, so what could she do now? Sensing the anxiety reflected on Mielle's face, Isis uttered a spell to cheer her up,

"You're not old enough yet, but... there's always been an exception, so you'd better hurry up your engagement to Oscar, for the unity of the Aristocratic Party."

"... Yes?"

"His Highness is trying to take an unprecedented, humble woman to the Imperial Castle, and there's nothing you can't do about it. Since Oscar thinks so, you need to help."

"... Is it real?"

Mielle's eyes were motivated by Isis's sly reply. If it were true, she'd be delighted, but even if it wasn't true, she knew Isis would make it that way.

"Don't worry, Lady Isis. I'll do whatever it takes to help Isis this time."

At the unexpected reward, Mielle had a strong response.

Aria's rumors spread smoothly. An inspiring story made as an important story again, and they praised her among themselves. Even it was a very easy thing to pick one or two young people to invest in a dinner at the mansion, and send them to the academy with scholarships.

"I heard Hans is that smart. It's gossipy, but he's been borrowing newspapers since he was very young, and he's known to be knowledgeable."

And Jessie sometimes brought up Hans's story. It was also because they had met regularly for several years. In addition, their friendship seemed to have grown rapidly in recent years, with the media called Aria.

"Really? How old is Hans?"

"He said he's going to be twenty this year"

"Jessie, he's the same age as you."

"Yes. That's why we talk the same language."

Jessie's shy smile made Aria feel the true joy she'd never seen before. Aria, who had squinted her eyes and watched it, nodded with a face that she would know.

'I was going to give her a more capable person.'

She had thought someone much better than Annie's. Aria thought she deserved it. Hans, who had a large family, was likely to give Jessie a hard time. So she was drinking tea to relieve her disappointment, and suddenly she had a good idea.
