Evening Party

The day of the evening party arrived at last.

I, who handed over the unwilling Allen and Elena to the castle maids and the Royal Guards including Isaac-san, arrived with Matthias-san and Rebeccsan to the entrance of the evening party hall.

There will be many dressed up n.o.bles, right? I am getting a bit nervous.

"Are you prepared, Tak.u.mi-kun?"

"Fufu. Now then, Tak.u.mi-san, let's enter."

Although I was still feeling nervous, Rebeccsan supported herself with my arm.

Rebeccsan's escort is naturally Matthias-san, but I am escorting her with him today as well. This is apparently called a double escort.

When we entered the gorgeous hall, not a small racket stirred.

Is this normal or is it because someone they are not familiar with like me is with the Count couple… I couldn't tell since it was my first evening party, but curious gazes gathered on us.

"Tak.u.mi-kun, we must greet His Majesty first."

"Y, yes, I understand."

"Tak.u.mi-san, your expression has stiffened."

"Eh?"

"It's understandable that you are nervous, but we are with you, so you don't need to be worried."

"… I will do my best."

Although I say that, I don't know whether I will be able to suppress my nervousness.

"Haha, it seems that eyes are nailed on your accessories, Rebecca."

"Oh my, oh my."

Matthias-san leaked quiet laughter without breaking his expression.

I see, the majority of the gazes is directed on the pearls!

Today, Rebeccsan is wearing a wine red, slender dress with a charmful white embroidery with the pearl accessories Matthias-san and I gifted her.

"There isn't anyone going to ask even though they are all interested?"

"Tak.u.mi-kun, where are we going now?"

"Eh? To His Majesty——Tristan-sama's place."

"Right. There's no way they would obstruct us when we are going to this party's organizer, the King of this country, right?"

"Ah, I see!"

It's standard to greet the organizer of the party first. There isn't anyone without manners who would contact us before we finished our greetings.

"Now then, Tak.u.mi-kun, it's our turn."

We advanced through the queue of people that came to greet Tristan-sama.

When it became our turn, Matthias-san went forward and bowed.

Following after Matthias-san, Rebeccsan and I bowed next.

"Count Ruven, Lady Rebecca, thank you for coming this evening."

"Thank you very much for the invitation."

Talking casually is apparently a breach of etiquette for those of status. Therefore, when Tristan-sama addressed Matthias-san, Matthias-san gave his greetings.

It feels like the stern Tristan-sama wrapped in kingly aura I had an audience with was a different person.

"Your outfit is truly beautiful tonight, Your Majesty."

"Oh my, thank you, Count Ruven. Your wife's attire is also wonderful today."

I don't feel any friendliness from Grace-sama she had when I met her in private.

This is exactly what a "n.o.ble woman" is.

"You did well coming, Tak.u.mi."

"Thank you very much for the invitation, Your Majesty."

The moment Tristan-sama called out to me, the surroundings have gotten momentarily noisier.

Are they surprised that someone they don't know was known by His Majesty?

"How is your first evening party?"

"I feel a bit nervous from this truly gorgeous place."

"Hahaha~ What, no need to be this tense. Just enjoy yourself without worries."

"Indeed, Tak.u.mi-san. Since you are already here, you better enjoy yourself."

As Tristan-sama and Grace-sama talked with me intimately, the noise of the surroundings grew louder.

"Good evening, Tak.u.mi-dono."

When Austin-sama and Aurorsama who finished greeting other n.o.bles joined us, the noise grew even louder.
