The sky was clear. No clouds… no birds in sight… the sun is glaring but not too hot either… The wind is calm and rhythmic as if they are playing a soundless melody. It blew the summer spirit away and made the atmosphere much more calming. One could say that summer is really the worst thing ever. I could testify to that. It's hot and it makes you sweat like crazy especially if you are wearing layers and layers of clothing.

But fortunately, it's not the case for today. Spring is coming around the corner, already on its way to bestow happiness to everyone who hates summer. The sun is out but it's not burning anyone's skin. With this, it felt good to just bask in the not-so-warm sunlight while being surrounded by beautiful flowers, no? The red tinge of roses, zinnias, and peonies… it brings more charm to the surrounding if I say so.

Of course, on such a good day, why would anyone waste it by staying indoors? The beauty of nature is more felt when you are in it. 

So within a big garden, a table was set and a person could be seen sitting there, surrounded by a sea of red. In front of her are a variety of sweets neatly placed in a tray. A cup of luxury branded tea was in her hands as she played with it with her long slender fingers. Behind her are two other people who are either fanning her or just waiting to refill her dainty cup.

That person is me and she's bored as hell.

I stared blankly at the lovely roses that should be a feast to my eyes. After all, I love anything that is red, except for blood just to make it clear. Whenever I see this garden of mine, it always calms me down but now, I'm just… I don't know. I'm so bored right now that I couldn't even tell what I am feeling at the moment.

It is such a perfect day to enjoy life and contemplate it. Yet here I am, slowly wilting away from how mundane my life is. There's nothing exciting around me anymore except the occasional drama between my maids. 

I have nothing to do. I am basically a jobless individual who is leeching off of my family's good fortune. The weight of my super free life just hit me some time ago and I don't even know whether I find it good or what. I'm so free that I feel conflicted!

Others my age had already responsibilities given to them. Take my friends for example. Beatriz is acing her lessons while Gwen is also doing the same as her. I even recently heard that Chiwa is getting married too and is learning the ropes like every other engaged lady out there.

Then there is me. I feel lonely because my friends are busy with their own lives.

My etiquette classes are already completed a long time ago so the Countess has no more business to come here. All I do is wake up, take a bath, eat, go outside and have tea, eat again, and then sleep.

I have no marriage partner so I am not taking lessons for that. Not that I am complaining, I am actually relieved that I am not being forced into a political marriage. I know that it's common, more so when I am already of marriageable age. My father had not spoken anything such as that so I am grateful.

Still though… 

What is this feeling of emptiness?!

This may sound like a dream to you but I will say this. It doesn't! Sure, being free of any responsibilities seems like an awesome thing. I mean, being pampered every day? Eat all the stuff you want and not worry about finance? Laze around under the sun? Just generally being a bum yet still surrounded with riches? Hell yeah, am I right?!

That may feel great for the first few weeks but when you are in my shoes right now… Slowly being left behind by everyone else my age… It's not great at all!

The feeling of dread slowly settling onto you as you watched the days passed by in a blink, doing the same shit over and over… Just what kind of hell is that? 

What the heck…

I'd rather be busy than sit around and drink tea all day!

"Is there nothing else to do?" I grumbled and pushed the cup away.

If this continued on, my blood would surely be replaced with tea. I even feel like I am starting to hate it. Jeez… 

My eyes drifted to Kuro who was chasing a butterfly not far away from where I was. The giant thing being playful as he ran around, it should look cute but… it looked absolutely terrifying. He could seriously flatten me like a board if he ever just decided to throw himself at me.

Ahhh… To be that happy just chasing a butterfly to eat it… I feel kind of envious… On the happy part, okay.

"Is milady bored? Why don't we play something?" Erin suggested after hearing the tenth sigh I released that day.

Play? Aren't I too old to play? And I don't think I have the energy for it. This is one of the reasons why I'm like this now. I'm bored but I'm too listless to move around excessively. Honestly…

My fingers tapped on the table. What to do? What interesting things are there? My brother and father are busy so I can't pester them. Kai had also gone to the palace to join the knights so Lost would naturally follow him in the background. 

Should I go around the capital? But what am I gonna do there? Ugh…

"Hmm…"

Should I just spy on everyone? Instead of holing myself in here, why don't I take this chance to observe the people around me? How to do that though? Everyone is either at home or in their work.

Damn it…

I glanced at the tray of sweets in front of me and remembered something while staring at it.

Ah! The thing about the popcorn and fries! I was going to investigate that!

My eyes then sparkled when I thought about it and a newfound vigor spread through me. That's right! I had a hunch that someone also transmigrated here like me and they came from the same world as mine!

I have to find out who they are and maybe this mundane monochromatic life of mine will finally have color! 

"Mhmm… Let's go to the capital!" I suddenly announced, standing up abruptly from my chair.

"To the capital?" Mari repeated my words, blinking at me.

I'll go to the capital and visit the mercenary guild again. With them, I can commission them to investigate the Castello family for me. Fufufufu~

Yes… This is it!

"Come on! Time is precious!"
