Chapter 78: 78 Quiet Story Part 19 - Melancholy of The Answering ...

The harassment Shayla received was transmitted at lightning speed from Lidil to the Neutral Faction (it may not be necessary to say this now, but Lidil and Nasha are members of the Red Rose Faction as well as the Hidden Neutral Faction), and from the Neutral Faction to Raia, Yolanda, and Leticia.

Furthermore, from the mouths of each of the maids and maidservants, the information was delivered to the head maidservant and to Christel Gracie, the head of the Imperial Court's Kingsguard.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that there are still some people in this palace who are willing to engage in such trivial harassment. ......

"Madame Magnum, your eyes are fixed on me.

You, too, should stop smiling with your mouth. I don't know when I started to resemble my fiancée.

Please don't joke about it.

I'm aware that I've become a little bit black-hearted since I became involved with Ed, so Chris is vulnerable when this point is pointed out to him. Even though Chris can win over most people, there are people he can't win over. Like the adults of the Crester family, or the 'Supreme Master' who never lost her stern expression in front of him.

--However, Chris thinks that Mrs. Magnum is 'unbeatable' for a different reason than the members of the Crester family.

It's not a joke, and it's not something you'd hate.　It's only natural that a man and a woman who have vowed to marry each other will start to resemble each other.

...... By that logic, doesn't that mean that Ed will look like me too?

"Now that he is going out with you, his son has a much softer expression on his face.

These are the kinds of words that you can't hear in a normal state of mind, but they are uttered in a serious and matter-of-fact manner. Chris respects this woman from the bottom of his heart, because he doesn't think he would be able to reach this state of mind even if he were to grow old for another twenty years.

Anyway.

I don't mean Ed and I, but isn't Shayla-sama's personality changed since she entered the palace?　It's quite a bold move to come into the kitchen.

The person in charge came running to me when he got into trouble.

...... So the manager didn't know?

He's a man who devoted his life to the kitchen of the palace. There is no way he would be complicit in such a trivial harassment, and no one who would mistreat food could work under his watchful eye.

Few of Madame Magnom's former colleagues from her time as a lady-in-waiting remain in the palace today. The one person who continues to work with the same conviction and passion as before is the kitchen manager. He may be a bit strange, but his character is well known.

Chris knew that, too, so he nodded lightly.

So I guess the harassment of Shayla-sama was the work of someone outside the kitchen.

The coward who pretended to be harmless and got away with the investigation is ......

I think that's highly unlikely.

I think it's highly unlikely." Chris smiled at Mrs. Magnum, who had a hint of remorse in her expressionless face.

Chris smiled at Madame Magnom, who had a look of remorse on her face. Fortunately or unfortunately, as a result of the former High Priestess's plan to create an environment that suited her, the age range of the ladies and maids of the Imperial Court has dropped drastically. They are far too inexperienced to deceive you.

But the incident happened. That's all that matters.

Yeah, that's why we can narrow it down. I'm sure there are many people in the palace now who can ...... be unconditionally exempted from your investigation.

Chris nodded, seeing the understanding widen in Mrs. Magnum's eyes.

"Yes. --There are two types of maidservants in the palace now.

There are two kinds of maidservants in the palace now. There are now two kinds of maidservants in the palace: royal maidservants who are employed by the palace and are required to swear allegiance to the royal family, even if only temporarily.

And the "private maidservants," who are brought from the family home by a high-ranking concubine and serve not the king but the concubine herself and her family.

Master Magnum exhaled deeply and loudly.

...... Should I have pushed myself to check them out?

It's impossible to force them, they don't work for the royal court.

They're not employed by the palace. ...... You should have at least confirmed their identities.

I'm sure Rita will be out of the palace when that happens, though.

I'm not sure what to make of that. It's also the "personal maid" that Diana brought from her family home. In the case of Rita, she is not an employee, but a follower who has given her own loyalty to Diana, but in terms of the fact that the royal palace does not pay her to work, she is no different from other private attendants.

--Yes, the biggest and absolute difference between a royal maidservant and a private maidservant is whether or not the royal court pays her salary. A maidservant brought in from her parents' house by her side at the request of her side's family is basically only allowed to take care of her master's personal needs, and is not paid a cent by the palace.

It is obvious that this rule, which is a direct copy of the rule for the servants of guests invited to stay at the palace for a long period of time, is strange without even thinking about it. No matter how long the stay, the invited guest is only a guest. A concubine, on the other hand, lives in the palace as a member of the royal family, even though she is not formally married. As long as they serve the side chambers, even if they were first hired by their parents' family, their employer should naturally be the royal court, and they should be under the supervision of the chief consort of the inner court.

The reason why such a logic that even a child could understand was completely ignored was simply a matter of money. The labor cost is not insignificant. There was no money to hire more maidservants when there were fifty side chambers to support.

However, in reality, there is a shortage of manpower. At such a time, some of the prospective daughters of the side chambers who had enough money in their pockets were told that they wanted to bring a maidservant from their parents' home.

I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good thing that Rita was able to sneak into the palace unnoticed thanks to the idiots who wanted to kill two birds with one stone by cutting labor costs and solving the labor shortage. In the event that you're not sure what to do, you'll be able to find out how to do it.

...... I don't deny that, but looking at the current situation, it's clear that there are many problems. First of all, I have no authority over these women.

The private maidservants are hired by the family of the concubine. It is the family that ultimately decides what to do with the girls. It is possible to sue the employer for the negligence of the maidservant, but it is very troublesome because you have to be prepared to antagonize not only the employer but also his backers, depending on the opponent.

It is true that if the girls were under your supervision, this kind of nonsense would not have happened. That's something we'll have to discuss in the future, but for now, let's just be happy that finding the culprit will be easier.

But even if I find out who the culprit is, if it's a private maid, I won't be able to warn her and stop her from harassing me. It is possible to advise the Lord, but it is more likely that he will turn a blind eye.

It's just a question of whether or not Shayla's nerves will hold up. ....... In the event that you have any kind of questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

In fact, the quickest way is to pick out the points where harassment is likely to take place and put them up beforehand. I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good idea. Many of them are not very good at sneaking around in secret.

(I've already sent a girl who's a bit more useful and dynamic to escort Deanna. ......)

I'd rather have Deanna. I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you. If Deanna and Rita are there, I think they can get to the culprit rather easily.

Just when I crossed my arms...

--Suddenly, a presence descends from above me.

"What's wrong?

Chris asked out of reflex. The presence was so overwhelming that even Mrs. Magnum, who was an amateur in combat, noticed it and looked at him.

It's their specialty to move their presence in and out at will, but they don't usually 'make' people notice them so blatantly.

I'm sorry to interrupt you. I'm sorry to interrupt you, but there's something I need to ask you right away.

...... Is something wrong over there?

"I'm afraid so.

This is the first time I've been able to get a good look at the history of the world.

--At this time of year, the guards of the Darkness are divided. As each member of the Crestor family is on their own, and the range of their activities is far greater than usual, the guards must be stretched thin in order to be more efficient.

I hope nothing happens to them, but the fact that they're coming to tell Chris so urgently is...

"Is Deanna okay?

"Don't worry, Chris. It was a close call, but Deanna is unharmed.

"So ....... Thank God. ......

"The details are in this letter. --Master Chris, I want you to wash the backs of all the knights of the Inner Palace right now.

The meaning of the Darkness' words was clear. Chris's expression tightened.

"Who?

"It was a girl called Mana Colt.

"...... Mana?

I wouldn't say it was entirely unexpected. Chris knew that she wasn't just a serious girl.

But even so, he had added her to Diana's bodyguard because he thought that her loyalty to the royal family and her sincere attitude toward her knightly work were genuine.

"Well, Mana is ....... What about her now?

"She's on the run. We have no idea where she is.

Has Lord Dualis issued an order to terminate her?

No. He just wants her found as soon as possible.

I'm asking you to do the same. For the sake of the girl.

Of course. ...... I'm sure Diana-sama doesn't want to be reunited with the body of the Colt Knight.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that. It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

I'm going to look into the back of the knights from here. I'll check the back of the knights from here. I can only get information from being in the palace.

I'm sure you'll be fine. ...... Do you have a message for Diana?

"Well, ......, tell her I'm sorry, and that I hope she comes back safely.

"Yes, sir.

Finally, he dropped the letter, and the presence above him disappeared as suddenly as it had come.

With the letter in hand, Chris locked eyes with Mrs. Magnum, who looked relieved, confused, and nervous. ...... I'm sure I have a similar expression on my face right now.

...... There and here. There's always a problem, isn't there?

It's going to be a rough New Year's Eve party, ...... in every sense of the word.

Thinking about the next five days, the two women sighed.
