"If it's Katanta, isn't it 'the' Katanta?"
"Shh, there you are. Your voice is too loud."
It was as if a light had come on in her previously blinking vision. 'Katanta' was mixed in the secret conversations of nobles.
That' Katanta.
How on earth do nobles know Katanta?
The Princess confirmed that the rumor that I stayed in Katanta for a while last month did not spread.
The Princess's heart sank. The Princess swallowed hard as her breathing became rougher.
She had to stay calm. She had to get rid of them before their existence became ingrained in the minds of the nobles.
But, how?
Maybe he was overloaded, but her lips were only trembling and she couldn't say anything. Her mind went blank.
It was a time when the gaze towards the Princess took on an increasingly strange look.
"I see you, Her Royal Highness."
The Princess lifted her head. The low voice that appeared as if it were salvation was Jade Madeleine. A member of the Madeleine duchy, an imperial faction, and vice-captain of the Imperial Knights....
The Princess regained her dignity in an instant. She then looked at Viscount Katanta as if she was half-heartedly pleased.
"Nice to meet you. Viscount, and Madam."
Viscount Katanta was not surprised by the Princess's suddenly changed expression, and the Princess smiled elegantly and spoke to Jade Madeleine
"You came just in time, Lord Madeleine. Could you please guide these people to the living room? These are people I've known for a while in the past...."
The Princess smiled embarrassedly and looked around her. Only then did the nobles seem to understand and smile at Viscount Katanta.
At every banquet, there were always lower-ranking nobles who showed off their friendship with the Princess and swaggered around. This time it seemed like they were idiots.
The Princess was relieved to see the nobles' changing gaze. At the same time, she felt uplifted that she had built such a solid foundation of support.
It seemed that Viscount Katanta immediately recognized the change in the nobles' eyes.
The Viscount's mouth trembled in frustration. Although his beaten body was in pain, he found it difficult to get his words out in this atmosphere.
Nevertheless, his words of courage were ignored by the princess.
"Your High....."
"Viscount, It was nice to meet you. It must have been tiring to come this long way, so let's take a little rest. Sir, I would also like to thank you in advance."
It was so easy for the Princess to sway the public opinion of the social world in front of her opponent, who was nothing, to the point where she lost her temper. Especially if she has a helper.
She was still calm and noble. The sight of her was enough to erase the sensitive image that had disappeared onto the balcony with Olivia a moment ago.
Soon, ridicule towards her poured down like daggers.
"It seems like that was just a rumor."
"That's right. Since Her Highness the Princess does all kinds of good deeds, even country bumpkin nobles like that come to visit. He was taken away once before."
