"Oh, my God, you're wearing a very unusual bracelet, aren't you? Is it a popular bracelet among the common people?"

'How faultless I am!' A young lady went so far as to insult the bracelet she was wearing. 'You don't know who gave the bracelet to me.'

She seemed very curious, so Aria smiled softly, and answered, "Unusual, isn't it? It's a bracelet from the Crown Prince."

"...!"

Although they were hostile to the Crown Prince, he was the Crown Prince.

She insulted the gift of the one who would become the Emperor. If Aria told him the truth, she would be punished for insulting the royal family.

But because she no longer felt the value of dealing with these stupid women, Aria looked around, ignoring her pale face. At the center of the crowd was a bright-faced Mielle.

'What the hell are you going to do?'

Aria spoke to Annie to get Mielle's routine today and went up to her room. She then ordered the cleaning again in case of any danger she didn't know and opened the window wide to pay attention to the garden, and nothing happened, whether it was unfortunate or not.

"Miss, she has been enjoying the party, but she hasn't taken any other action."

So did Annie's report. Aria was all the more subdued by the report that Mielle had not done anything unusual.

'Isn't that I'm so nervous for nothing?'

Nevertheless, she read a book in her hands, looking out the window, and she could see the Count coming home late at night.

It was also noticed that Mielle, who was enjoying the party, greeted the Count with a smile, and that Cain, who followed him, glanced up at her room. The real Count family went into the mansion with a smile.

As the usual scene of everyday life caught her eye, the tension gradually disappeared. So she was sighing for relief and trying to relax, but someone knocked on the door.

"Sister, I have something to say."

It was Mielle. Once again her whole body was in a state of tension.

"What brings you here?"

"Come out and look."

"I'm changing my clothes, so tell me there."

"I'll wait, then."

Mielle's reply was firm. If it was, as usual, she would have ordered a maid, but would she wait outside the door?

Aria picked up a box of the hourglass in doubt that something bad might happen. 'Let's turn the hourglass around as soon as something happens,' she opened the door with such determination.

"... What do you want to say?"

Then she saw the Count behind Mielle. He also had a face that said he did not know the reason. Mielle, who was looking at the box Aria was holding for a moment, smiled awkwardly and called her out saying that she wanted to talk together. It was so strange.

So it was then that she slowly stepped out of the room and approached the Count's side, giving strength to the box that carried the hourglass. Suddenly, Mielle pushed the Count down as hard as she could from the edge of the stairs. It happened very quickly.

"...?"

"...!"

The Count falling under the stairs tried to hold Aria's wrist reflexively, but what he caught was not her wrist, but the end of the bracelet that was given by Asher. Only Aria's bracelet fell to the ground with the Count, and Mielle screamed,
