The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 363
Chapter 363
The Grand Mansion of the Duke of Granz.
As soon as I entered the annex building, not the main building of the mansion, I couldn’t help but be surprised.
First of all, the dining room of the outbuilding was filled with delicious smells.
Naturally, there was a lot of food spread out on the table.
But it wasn’t the food that mattered.
“Here.”
Ellen.
“… … .”
Harriet.
“You came… … .”
Adelia.
“Uh um… … . did he come? Reinhardt.”
Up to Cliffman there.
“This is all… … . What?”
Not understanding the situation, Liana stabbed me in the side with her elbow.
“What is it? I thought you were going to do something because you looked bad, but I just asked you to have a party.”
Food is also food.
Seeing that everyone was wearing aprons, it looked as if they had made all the food themselves.
It looks like I’m in a bad mood, but you won’t tell me why.
So, I was trying to comfort them in some way, but I didn’t know what to do, so I planned a surprise party.
This doesn’t solve the problem, nor does it relieve my psychological anxiety about the things I’m facing.
The more I see these guys thinking like this, the more I fear the future.
This is of no use to anyone.
The better the present, the more afraid of the future.
This is something I don’t really need.
Because the day will come someday when you will miss this moment.
“uh… … . Are you crying?”
Liana’s trembling voice broke the silence and resonated in the dining room.
It was a voice that seemed genuinely embarrassed, and the other kids were also staring at me with their mouths open.
“What the hell are you talking about! Why am I crying?”
“Oh no… … . Is this bastard really crying?”
Liana made a fuss about what she saw wrong.
Not even kids.
It’s been a while since I cried and cried over things like this.
“I’m not crying!”
Would I cry!
I wonder if the kids will cry because they threw a surprise party for me!
how am i Do you know how old he really is?
“… … this.”
Ellen came up to me and held out a tissue.
No, I don’t cry. Why do I need this?
“Are you not crying?”
Didn’t cry.
I don’t even know what came out of my eyes without knowing.
I don’t know.
“Yeah, I know you don’t cry, this.”
In the end,
he accepted the tissue Ellen offered.
“Sickness… … .”
Something.
I didn’t lose, but I felt like I lost.
and.
there is such a kid
A kid who cries when someone cries, not knowing why.
“Black… … .”
“no… … . Why are you crying?”
“Boo… … . I don’t know… … .”
Harriet suddenly cried along, causing Liana to faint for the second time.
“this.”
“Ughhhh… … . black… … .”
Ellen also handed out toilet paper to Harriet.
* * *
I didn’t cry, but Harriet did. I believe so.
Of course, the kids think differently, but it’s none of my business.
So, in the end, it was a surprise party, but a luxurious dinner was held. So, eating is normal.
It was definitely not an atmosphere like a social party, with musicians playing songs and dancing.
From the looks of it, it’s clear that Liana doesn’t like that. Trying to imagine Rihanna dancing at a social party in a dress just doesn’t work.
I think you’re going to sit with your legs crossed and just notice the men approaching you, telling them to go away because they’re not doing anything?
Of course, I don’t know what it actually is.
There was a lot of prepared food.
Hey Ellen, I learned last time that I could cook properly, but it was surprising that only Heriot, Adelia, and Cliff did it.
“… … Were you dragged?”
“… … Because it seems that there will be a shortage of workers.”
It seems that Cliffman was attached by Liana.
Did you become Liana’s exclusive slave?
It’s actually a reward, but I don’t know if you like it, but if you really hate it, but you’re forced to do it, isn’t this like school violence?
no.
Calling it school bullying at this point is kind of funny.
I wonder who made what.
-Omnyol
Ellen, no matter what I eat, I don’t know because I’m eating everything in front of me.
– Flinch!
What Harriet had made was obvious. They keep a close eye on what I am touching, and when I try to touch it, they look at me with eyes full of anticipation.
But it’s pretty strange.
Cream pasta in front of you.
Judging by the glance, it seems clear that Harriet made it.
But honestly.
A character like you definitely shouldn’t be able to cook at a time like this, right?
It looks fine, but in fact, sugar was added instead of salt, or I think it should develop like that?
In the end, it was clear that I would be greatly disappointed if I didn’t eat it, so I closed my eyes and ate a bite.
“how is it? How are you?”
Harriet, who had become so red that I was scared to eat, asked me.
what?
Why is it just delicious?
It’s not a great delicacy, but thinking that Harriet made it, it felt more delicious than it actually was, perhaps because of the skill correction.
“… … Why is it delicious?”
At my words, Harriet narrowed her brows.
“what. If it’s delicious, it’s delicious. Why do you mean it’s delicious?”
“No, why do you know how to cook?”
“Did you follow the recipe written in the cookbook?”
ah.
Are you saying that if you follow the recipe as measured with a ruler, you can’t taste it?
You cooked with the honor student approach. On the contrary, thinking like that made me wonder if it was rather impossible that Harriet couldn’t cook.
It’s the first time, but it’s like this. Doesn’t he also have a great talent for cooking?
Even though the types of food were different, the feeling came.
This is delicious, but everything I wanted was done by Ellen.
Harriet did almost everything I thought was okay.
“… … .”
“… … .”
There were some things that were not very tasty.
“It’s the first time… … . Because it’s the first time… … .”
“No, if it’s the first time, it’s rather natural that this is the case. I don’t think you did anything wrong.”
The Yorich attribute was taken by Adelia. No, it’s not something that can be called cooking. It’s my first time, but Harriet, who is good at it, is strange.
It seems that Cliffman was in charge of preparing materials and other chores.
Eventually, the hearty meal came to an end.
“Anyway, thank you everyone.”
I honestly expressed my gratitude that everyone like me was depressed and that they all worked together to do this.
* * *
The party didn’t end there. We nodded our heads to agree to the words, “We came to the Duke of Grantz’s house anyway, so there are many empty rooms, so we should sleep for a day.”
I wasn’t particularly busy right now, so I had plenty of time.
Even though it was not the main building, but a separate building, it was at the same level as the main building of a decent mansion.
Liana’s thoughts are obvious.
It is clear that he intends to have a big drink with the kids today. It’s broad daylight and the workers notice it, so it’s not the time yet, but it’s clear that they’re looking for an opportunity.
It is clear that the reason why we were brought to the annex building was to avoid the gaze of the servants and their families in the main building.
Of course, such a drinking party only takes place around the evening.
“But since it’s winter vacation, I want to go somewhere to play.”
Liana muttered as she lay on Cliffman’s thigh and trimmed her nails.
Cliffman was frozen, unable to do anything.
At first glance, it should look exciting and sweet.
Liana seems to think it’s just a substitute for a pillow.
“Hey man.”
“Uh uh… … .”
Cliffman, his face reddened, hesitated without even making eye contact when Liana called out to him while looking up.
“Is there anywhere you want to go?”
“Nana? me?!”
“Then I asked you, did you ask someone else?”
“That that that. that that… … .”
“… … No, why are you so flustered?”
Liana smiled as she looked up at Cliffman.
“Ah, did you hear that the two of you were going?”
“Oh no?! no. oh no not. place?”
“It’s sinister. Why do you want to go out with me? uh?”
“Oh no! no! No!”
“what? no? You don’t like it now?”
“Oh no no… … .”
“Good? You two want to go play?”
“Save me… … . I was all wrong… … .”
Liana giggled at Cliffman’s declaration of surrender, whose complexion had turned white, and Harriet was dumbfounded at seeing Liana like that. Harriet taps me on the shoulder and whispers softly.
“Liana is a bit… … . I see you sometimes… … . Hey… … .”
“It’s evil.”
At my words, Harriet’s eyes widened.
I wanted to say no, but seeing that the word no came out in the end, I seemed to strongly agree.
Adelia couldn’t look at it at all as her face turned red as if she couldn’t keep her eyes open.
-Omnyomnyol
Ellen was only murmuring macarons.
Aside from playing a prank on Cliffman, Liana seemed to want to go play before winter break ended.
So, there was a sudden discussion about where to go for winter vacation.
As the conversation progressed, what was interesting was that only Cliff, who had human depression, had the most reactions. Most of it was stuttering, but talking was second only to Liana.
As the story progressed, I honestly wasn’t sure if I would go along, so I came outside. In the name of going for a walk.
It seems that the fact that we are here as guests has already been reported to Duke Grantz, so we can go around freely.
however.
Am I too?
Isn’t it polite to say hello to your parents when you visit a friend’s house?
Is the fact that I just came over to play without saying a word and have a good time?
I was embarrassed for nothing, but I didn’t want to take the lead in saying hello to Duke Grantz. Because that’s funny too.
I wandered around the garden of the mansion near the annex.
It was winter, so there were no flowers, and it was a well-kept hedgerowed garden.
Being able to have a mansion of this size in the imperial capital made it possible to feel once again how powerful the finances and power of the Duke of Grantz were.
It’s like seeing how he supports his daughter, who spends money like water like Riana, indefinitely.
If you think about it, in the original work or now, in our grade, almost everyone with a strong background is in A class.
Bertus de Gradias.
Liana de Granz.
Harriet de Saintoine.
Heinrich von Schwarz.
Of course, Erhi is also a noble, but he is not that powerful.
On the other hand, in Class B, if Charlotte is excluded, there is only one Anna de Guerna from aristocratic background. Of course, that side is more like a magician family like Harriet rather than a noble.
anyway.
After wandering here and there, they eventually came to the mansion of the Duke of Grantz.
Come to think of it, if Liana asked me to take a look at your house, she would always bring her, so it wasn’t such a difficult place to come to.
I’m walking in the winter garden like that.
A person who was never expected to meet in a place like this was coming through the main gate of the mansion, guided by a servant.
“hmm.”
“… … ah.”
“I didn’t expect to see you in a place like this, Reinhard-kun.”
A middle-aged man taking off his bowler hat slightly to say hello.
“ah… … . Long time no see.”
in this place in this situation.
why are you here
It gave me goosebumps.
Merchant Guild Master.
It was Owen de Getmora.
