071. Justia Banquet (10)

A week later.

On the day of the Justia banquet.

Iriel’s mansion was going through a busy day with a hastily arranged banquet.

“Today, the royal family can come to the banquet, so you have to be perfect!!!”

The man in charge of the butler’s seat shouted with a stiff face.

But he didn’t even have to brush up on it, everyone was already sweating and moving their bodies busily.

“Cooking is okay!!!”

“I do not know! Don’t ask me, find out for yourself! I need to prepare props!”

“Damn it! You should check the wine side too!”

“You there! Go to the guards side!”

“We have to guess the ensemble song number 4 one more time!”

“aaa… … .”

An important banquet where the imperial family might come.

Because it was necessary to somehow make a perfect banquet according to the schedule, the heads of each field were shouting and pushing each other.

[ Justia invited all the students from the swordsmanship class to the banquet. ]

It was a rumor that Iriel gathered and spread among his followers.

Usually, Iriel was the type to hold banquets often.

At first, the nobles who thought they were holding a banquet in Justia soon had no choice but to harden their faces.

Zeke Kleiman’s Swordsmanship Lesson.

It was famous for its small number of people and hard training, but it was even more famous for the fact that each and every one of its members was amazing.

royalty, dukes, counts, and commoners.

Zeke’s class, where such colorful people gathered, had no choice but to gather people’s attention implicitly.

There, Count Gilbert was actually the first prince. It was also an open secret, so Justia’s banquet this time became a hot topic.

And what fuels their curiosity is Serena’s presence.

‘How will Yoheiden come out!?’

In Zeke’s swordsmanship class, not only Duke Justia but also Joheiden were present.

In the end, this is like Iriel provoking Serena right in front of her.

The students at the academy would talk about him whenever they met.

Aristocrats in the Ramiel Islands also spread the news like doves.

As a result, even after a few days, the [Justia Banquet] had become the hottest potato in recent times.

The Justia family couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

Iriel said that he could prepare a banquet for his followers as he usually does, so he started preparing with a light heart.

A situation where the scale suddenly grew enormously.

However, all the invitations had already been sent out, and there was no aristocrat who was unaware of this.

I couldn’t say that I couldn’t do it now or that I would postpone it because it was related to the dignity of the duchy.

In the end, they had no choice but to prepare a grand banquet by crying and eating mustard.

“What happened all of a sudden… … .”

A maid in the mansion said to a senior maid working with her with her eyes wide open.

She, too, looked exhausted.

“I don’t know.

“Well, it’s already been three days since I couldn’t sleep… … .”

“There is no one like that here. Shut up, go over there and help me set the table. He, too, will fall soon.”

“Ouch… … .”

The servants of the Justia Mansion are going through such hard days.

It was the same with Iriel.

“Girl, let’s practice one more time.”

“I want to stop now. I’m dying hard How many times is this?”

Ariel rubbed her shoulders and squeezed them.

However, Hades, who had been ordered by Hela, did not accept Iriel’s foolishness any longer.

“It is Hella’s name. Since the banquet was held at will, He is saying that you must take responsibility for it. If you don’t manage properly this time, you will be punished severely.”

Iriel bit his lip.

“How could you do something like this! To think you gave notice a week in advance of an important banquet inviting the imperial family. Where in the world is there a law like this!”

seal.

As Hades shouted, Iriel’s eyebrows rose.

“This wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t betrayed me.”

“I have never betrayed. From the beginning, he was Hella-sama’s person.”

“But you cheated.”

“… … .”

He said he had no one to trust.

The person who came as Zeke’s successor and kept his side for a long time was actually his aunt’s puppet.

When Iriel first returned to his home from Joheiden Mansion

Hades greeted himself with a calm face, bowing his head among the servants.

Feeling deeply betrayed, Iriel immediately tried to kick him out.

However, he could not drive him out as he brazenly occupied his position with his aunt as a shield, saying, ‘I was ordered to watch over Iriel-sama.’

Rather, after revealing his identity, he interfered in every case, and the annoying things became indescribable.

Iriel glared at Hades.

“What the hell are you thinking? miss. It’s not enough to stay overnight in Joheiden, so he invites the royal family and holds a banquet.”

“Ha, I told you that I stayed in Joheiden because Zeke Kleiman was there. And then, what if I returned to Justia? Wouldn’t he have been sent straight to the monastery? Since I held a banquet like this, I was barely wasting time.”

“… … .”

“And with this banquet, if either the 1st Prince or the 2nd Prince succeeds in making a kite, you won’t be able to kick me out of Ramielli.”

Iriel explained why he held a banquet and invited the royal family.

“Did I tell you? Even if you don’t do that, you don’t have to leave the academy… … .”

“Hades.”

Iriel cut off Hades’ words in a low voice.

“I am no longer an idiot.”

“… … .”

“As you say, my aunt might leave me alone for now. But, that means kicking me out whenever Auntie wants, doesn’t it?”

“… … .”

Hades keeps his mouth shut like a mute who has eaten honey.

under,

Iriel let out a laugh.

“I don’t believe you anymore. you do your job I will do my own thing.”

Took. Took.

Iriel approached Hades and shook his shoulder.

“Let’s do it right now? because it won’t dry you just watch Don’t even try to interfere too presumptuously.”

Hades closed his mouth and looked at her with a hard expression.

“You and I can no longer go back to what we were before. right?”

Iriel laughed and hid the real purpose of ‘I will contact Zeke Kleiman’.

‘It wouldn’t hurt to tell Hades now, but it would be more effective after announcing that the flower garden protects Zeke. For this, I have to deal directly with my aunt.’

I haven’t shown it in a while

Iriel, who was unbearably humiliated that he cried in front of Serena Yoheiden over the previous Zeke assassination case and nodded to her plan, gnashed his teeth every night.

Now, Iriel has learned to think a little more deeply, rather than act on his own like before.

‘It would be more effective if the princes came, but there’s no way they’d come after seeing a hastily written invitation. Well, that can’t be helped.’

More importantly, Serena Joheiden and Zeke will attend the banquet.

Iriel frowned and relaxed his throbbing arm from muscle pain.

In Zeke’s swordsmanship class, he was trained according to training and even tried to practice dancing.

She felt skeptical about whether she needed to practice dancing this hard.

‘If Prince 1 or 2 didn’t come, it would be the people who danced all the time. boring.’

Even this time, she herself becomes a bridesmaid.

I felt more motivated to do things I didn’t want to do.

‘Ah, but what about Zeke?’

Iriel suddenly remembered that Zeke was also attending the banquet as an aristocrat this time, not as an escort.

‘Because you’re coming as a noble. It’s because I’m announcing it as a benefactor of Joheiden. Let’s dance with the flower garden… … ?’

aww

I really hate to admit it, but it was a situation where my teeth were grinding as if Serena had snatched the bread that I had left to eat deliciously.

Can not help it. Yes, it is unavoidable. This must be part of the plan to protect Zeke.

‘Then isn’t it okay to dance with me for the second dance?’

What if Zeke danced with him at the banquet hall?

Shall I be criticized for dancing with someone from Joheiden?

no.

Perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary aristocrats, it may seem that way, but from Justia’s point of view, her own ransom value goes up.

‘I guess I can appeal to the fact that Zeke still cares about me… … .’

There is one more hand in the transaction with the aunt.

The Justia family, who have become very curious about Zeke, has no choice but to be cautious about contact because of Joheiden.

At that time, if he said that he would step forward and find out information about Zeke… … .

Of course, aside from that calculated aspect, the sight of Zeke and himself dancing was something I personally looked forward to.

With Zeke in the background of a beautiful night, leave your body to the music.

If you look up with your thick arms wrapped around your waist and your head leaning against your firm chest.

His expressionless expression breaks slightly and he smiles… … .

Iriel raised the corner of his mouth reluctantly, then cleared his throat as soon as he realized that Hades was watching.

“Huh, heh! First of all, I’ll practice social dancing more. Because I can’t step on the feet of the 1st and 2nd princes!”

Iriel spat out the words bluntly.

“Music, play again. With a very romantic song.”
