Chapter 24: 24

The sudden death of Marquis Fideut made the military and police forces busy.

Since the Marquis was working in a high-ranking state administrative post, this case caused a great stir.

The following week, on the front page of the tabloid from Lady Chanelia, an article about the death of Marquis Fideut appeared.

Because of that, the explanation of Sophia’s rumors was pushed back to two pages, and although it was not small, it did not attract much attention as it was buried in the death of the Marquis.

Meanwhile, after that incident, Sophia did not see Killian for five days.

He would come occasionally in the morning to change his clothes or to pack up and go out again.

“He said he was sorry he couldn’t take care of the guest properly.”

Garfield apologized on behalf of Killian, who had been away for a long time.

“Oh no…! Mr. Garfield ​​and the people here have been nice to me, so I’m having a good time.”

Sophia waved her hands.

Thanks to the servants caring for her with the utmost sincerity, her stay in Rivelon cured her cold and she adjusted to life in the duchy.

She memorized the name of the butler, Garfield, and the maids who helped her, and she also finished organizing her belongings brought from Frauss.

“You may call me just Garfield, my lady.”

“Ummm… Yes, Garfield…”

Sophia shyly scratched her cheek.

It would certainly seem strange to keep calling the butler with a title in the ropan world.

Sophia spoke again as she struggled to adjust.

“But Garfield, is there anything I can do here?”

“The lady?”

“I’m being indebted to you like this, so I’m not sure if I’m supposed to do anything…”

Garfield burst into laughter as Sophia timidly clasped her hands.

“Haha, you are an important guest of the Rivelon. It’s your job to be comfortable and have fun.”

“Still, there’s not much to do. I feel unemployed.”

She was like a hardworking ant who was accustomed to living a busy life even before she was possessed. Read only at pm tl.

A part-time worker since high school, a job right after graduation, and a simple person built on the basis of sincerity.

She felt a sense of pride and accomplishment as she filled her time to the fullest.

To her, who had lived as a faithful worker in society, to have a daily routine of lying in bed, taking a quiet walk in her garden, and eating food, felt too boring and pathetic.

But Garfield saw it differently.

It has only been five days now. A decent amount of time to rest as her body heals.

In addition to her body aches and colds, Sophia needed plenty of rest due to malnutrition.

But she was already restless because she couldn’t work.

‘Could she have really been a maid?’

He began to have reasonable doubts.

A clarification article appeared in this weekly magazine, but after all, once rumors have circulated, he cannot completely trust her.

Sophia noticed Garfield’s narrowed gaze and turned her back.

“Or maybe there’s a place to study?”

“To study…?”

“World history, science or geography…? Or a foreign language will be good.”

If she couldn’t work, she thought she would have to study to get rid of her boredom.

Besides, she couldn’t just keep wasting time like this!

If she was a female protagonist, she should not neglect self-development.

“If that’s the case, how about using the library?”

“There’s a library?”

Sophia was delighted.

Why didn’t she think of that? Forgetting the space where the female protagonists build up their abilities in ropan!

“If you go to the east wing on the first floor, there is a large study room. It is appropriate to call it a small library.”

Garfield said.

The study on the first floor was a space for collecting rare books apart from Killian’s personal study.

It was like Killian’s bookstore, who had loved to collect books since he was a child.

“The lord said that you can use the space on the first floor comfortably. May I guide you?”

“Yes, please!”

Sophia jumped to her feet.

With a gentle smile, Garfield led her downstairs.

At that time-

“Butler Garfield! His Majesty the Crown Prince has arrived!”

A gardener, who was working outside, ran in, announcing the arrival of the Crown Prince.

At the sudden visit of the prince, Garfield apologized to Sophia and hurried to the front door.

Sophia, left to one side of the lobby, stared at the grand duke’s huge front door.

The servants hurriedly opened the front door of the mansion for the precious guest.

The dazzling sunlight streamed in through the crack in the open door.

Sophia covered the light with the back of her hand and looked towards the porch with a frown.

The outline gradually became clearer through the center of the pure white light that made her eyes twitch.

The first thing that stood out was the eyes, like the emerald sea of ​​the south. Subsequently, the aesthetic features sculpted on the milk-white skin became clear.

He was so bright that it was hard to open her eyes properly.

‘That’s Crown Prince Mikhail…!’

She knew a little bit about him.

In the world of ropan, the imperial family was one of the objects that must be grasped.

In particular, the Crown Prince and other princes were highly likely to be the main characters in the novel, whether they were the main characters or villains.

‘Blonde hair, and that splendid beauty…!’

A person who faithfully followed the Crown Prince cliché.

Ropan cliché data says:

It’s called ‘A powerful second male lead appeared’.

“Your Majesty the Crown Prince, I’m sorry that I couldn’t prepare for you…!”

While the butler greeted the prince, the servants of the Rivelon rushed out and lined up on either side.

Sophia fell behind the servants so as not to get in the way.

“But, my lord, my master is already out for service.”

“I know Garfield.”

Mikhail smiled softly.

Sophia poked her head out among the maids and watched him secretly.

Beautiful.

At that moment of admiration as if possessed, Mikhail met her eyes.

“I’m here today to see Sophia Frauss.”

Me, me?

Sophia’s eyes narrowed.

At the same time, the maids in front of her swerved away to pave space.

Oh my. When it comes to female protagonists, even if you are really still, men will come to you.

In real life, it’s hard to see such a handsome man, but when you enter the book, you hear that handsome men come one after another.

Sophia admired her own magnetic charm.

“Since she’s Killian’s fiance, she’ll be a member of the royal family, but I’ve never seen her before.”

The royal family… ?

“I wanted to meet you earlier, but it seemed rude to see you before Killian, and I have had a lot of personal work lately.”

“You wanted to meet me?”

“It’s a bit difficult to talk here without Killian, shall we go to the Imperial Palace? After all, the Empress also wanted to meet the Lady.”

To the Imperial Palace? Meeting the Empress?

Since it was something that appears only once in a novel, she thought that one day she would go to the palace for a ball or something.

But in that imagination, Killian was always with her.

But so suddenly, and to go alone!

‘I’m not ready for this development yet…!’

The second male lead was more aggressive than expected.

“If it’s okay with you, you may ride in the carriage that came with me.”

Mikhail pointed to the carriage parked outside and asked to accompany him.

Despite his position as Crown Prince, Mikhail had respect for his opponent.

Every word shows that he was a well-educated and well-behaved person.

‘Come to think of it, the Crown Prince shouldn’t have come to pick me up himself.’

It was common for the royal family to have their subordinates call Sophia to the imperial palace.

But when he came to her directly and asked politely, she had a sense that he would become a great emperor in the future.

‘By the way… If this person is the second male lead, will he face off with Killian later?’

Suddenly, anxiety piled up.

Wouldn’t the two of them fight over her love in the future? Could there be a war?

‘Then it’s difficult. No matter how much I’m Killian’s fiancée, I don’t want Killian to fight with such a kind person… Besides, they’re close like brothers.’

“Miss Sophia…?”

“Yes? Yes! It’s an honor to have the Crown Prince looking for me…”

Sophia, who was immersed in all sorts of thoughts, answered belatedly.

Her voice was louder than expected.

Mikhail laughed as if she was cute.

“Then I will wait. Are you ready to go?”

~*~

It was only about a 20-minute walk from the mansion to the palace, but the two got on a carriage anyway.

Contrary to the way she looked outside, Sophia clenched her knees and bit her lips with tight tension.

She was wearing the red dress that Killian had bought her the other day.

This was because the custom-made dresses he ordered from the dressing room hadn’t arrived yet, so this was the only thing she could wear to the imperial palace.

She seems like too much red, but it’s better than going out in a rustic old dress from Frauss.

‘Who is the Empress?’

The Empress was like Killian’s mother. In other words, she was like Sophia’s prospective mother-in-law.

‘It’s scary that my mother-in-law is an empress…’

Maybe it was after she had gone through Rubisella and Lady Chanelia before, and it seemed that it would not be too hard to meet the Empress.

If Rubisella and Chanelia are the middle bosses, it feels like the Empress was the final boss…

“You’ve never seen the Empress before, have you?”

Mikhail asked Sophia, who was seriously thinking about her.

Her face, which had been stiffened, softened a little, and she nodded her head.

“This is my first time going to the Imperial Palace. Maybe I’m going to make a mistake…”

“You don’t have to think too hard. She’s a friendly person.”
