'Is it because I'm with Kiriel that we're drawing attention?' Ethan, dressed in his usual black uniform, was familiar, but the remaining three were complete strangers to her. Liriel Curtis. Her braided blonde hair was adorned with a flower-shaped hairpin, and she wore a deep blue dress. Like her brother, she was a talented mage, deeply interested only in magic. Her languid expression exuded a dreamy atmosphere. Her purple eyes, identical to Kiriel's, flickered with a peculiar interest. Seria…-

"Alright." Kana placed her hand on his. They danced elegantly with precise movements in time with the rhythm. As they spun around, the hem of her light green dress flared up like a blooming flower and then settled down. "Lord Kiriel, you dance very well." "So do you, Miss Kana. I'm surprised we're so in sync without having practiced together." Kana chuckled at his response. This was the result of her body becoming accustomed to it while working. She hadn't practiced dancing separately in 'Fake…

Kiriel’s eyes narrowed. It was an unexpected combination. Of course, they could be acquainted since Alderaan was the brother of Olivia Short, who was friends with Kana, but he didn’t expect them to be this close. Moreover, Alderaan was very different from his lively and proactive sister; he was quite frail and quiet. Just a minor official in the Treasury Department. Alderaan Short was perceived as just that by the public. Despite this, the two were laughing heartily, even clapping their hands.…

Kana stared at the person in front of her. Emotions of distress flickered in his violet eyes, resembling violets. She calmly spoke, fiddling with the end of her fan after pulling her arm from his grasp. “Lord Kiriel, does my talk bother you?” “It’s not that, but the topic is too focused on Lady Serade. Even if you don’t mention her, everyone is already talking about her.” “Yes, I understand. I’ll stop.” Having done enough as a supporting character, Kana decided to generously…

CHAPTER 2. Meetings and Tea Parties — No. Why would a high-level spirit go through such trouble? They’d rather find a spirit summoner that suits them. You know spirits are quite picky by nature, right? “Yes.” — The higher the level, the more so. High-level spirits follow for two reasons: exceptional talent, or they’ve gradually built up from a lower level over a long period. Kiriel rubbed his chin as he listened to Serian’s explanation. Was she confident enough to raise it…

Kiriel approached her with long strides and replied. "Oh, really? It seemed like you were gearing up." "Well, technically, I did buy them to protect myself. What brings you here, Tower Master?" Kana deflected the conversation by vaguely mentioning her purpose, even as he got closer. Kiriel responded nonchalantly. "This is a shop I run, so I came to check on it." "My goodness, is that so? No wonder the quality is so good." Though she already knew, Kana clapped her hands and laughed…

Ethan's gaze, which had been fixed on the weapon, turned towards her. Kana swallowed hard as she met his intimidating red eyes. In the subtly tense atmosphere, Kiriel chuckled. Whether it was a mocking laugh or just a laugh, she couldn't tell. “Indeed.” “Besides, Duke Cardium has never harmed me. On the contrary, he has shown me kindness.” Kana regained her composure, glancing at the northern duke who remained silent. Ethan had nothing to say, so he kept quiet. Kiriel tilted his head…

“Sounds good.” Olivia clapped her hands enthusiastically. Evie followed with a slightly shy applause, while Letie clapped calmly. After everyone took a sip of tea, Olivia alternated her gaze between Kana and Letie before speaking. “Kana, are you acquainted with Lady Serade?” “No. Today is our first time meeting in person. I wanted to get to know her, so I sent an invitation, and she kindly accepted.” At Kana’s honest answer, Olivia and Evie's eyes widened. Letie appreciated…

Letie couldn’t help but smile at the host’s clean handling of the situation. Wherever she went, people always compared her to her half-sister Cordelia, but Kana didn’t do that. It was refreshing after a long time, both before and after her regression. “That’s right. The one here now is not Cordelia, but me.” “Of course. It’s only right to prioritize the person who accepted the invitation and graced us with their presence.” “No, there have been many who rudely mentioned and…

“That's good then.” “Yes.” With her response, silence fell. Kana quietly stared at the flowers before shifting her gaze to Kiriel and speaking. “By the way, what brings the Tower Master here?” “I had business with Viscount Round.” “Oh, is it because of the spirit stones?” When Kana clapped her hands and asked, Kiriel nodded affirmatively. If it weren't for the indirect acquisition of spirit stones, he wouldn't have had a reason to come to the Round estate. She…
