Millian must have never met a truly strict teacher for her to mention Liv as strict.
Meanwhile, Camille smiled with a slightly relaxed face as though he noticed the misery revealed on Liv’s face.
“Actually, I heard that you are the teacher that is closest to Millian. I wanted to ask for advice on teaching methods.”
“There’s no such thing as a teaching method.”
“But can’t you give me advice on where I should draw the line? It’s my first time teaching a female student, so I’m being careful about everything. And as a teacher, it’s a little… difficult to tell this to Baroness Vendons. If you don’t feel comfortable talking to me in person, you can reply in a short letter.”
Certainly, for a male teacher teaching a female student for the first time, he might have some concerns. It was also necessary to advise him in that regard for Millian’s sake.
Liv, who had been agonizing for a short time, soon nodded.
“If it’s about Millian, I could give you a little advice.”
“Thank you.”
Camille, who had been discouraged for a while, quickly became lively again and smiled. He seemed to be a positive and bright person.
After giving him the address to send the letter, Liv decided it was the time to leave the party.
While she was looking around for the presents to be piled up somewhere at the party venue, Liv suddenly fixed her eyes to the entrance of the party.
She wondered if it was just her feelings. The entrance looked especially noisy and bustling. As she stared, drawn in by the disturbance, she saw Baron and Baroness Vendons running toward the entrance in a panic.
… Liv had once seen a similar happening. The day when the Baroness, who offered her to have a cup of tea, turned around in surprise at the sudden visit of a guest.
The very day she first met Demus Dietrion.
“No way…”
Liv opened her mouth without realizing it. Camille, who somehow was already by her side, whistled low, staring at the entrance to the party hall.
“I never thought I’d see him in a place like this.”
A man’s head popped out of the crowd. The man’s face did not disappear even though she blinked many times.
He was the Marquis of Dietrion.
She had never looked straight at that person’s face so openly like this. However, at this moment, she couldn’t take her eyes off the Marquis.
Liv couldn’t hide her wide open eyes and stared at the Marquis. Not only her, but everyone in this party was looking at the Marquis with astonished eyes. Everyone was probably thinking of the same thing.
That it was impossible for that person, the Marquis of Dietrion, to come to celebrate the birthday of the child of the Vendons barony.
That there might be another important thing.
Even so, wouldn’t he look like a party guest if he visited like this?
Liv turned her eyes at the sudden thought. Millian, who had been playing with friends of her age, approached her parents with a bright red face. Behind Millian were her friends around the same age standing with subtle faces.
The Baron and Baroness Vendons introduced their only lovely daughter with flushed faces. The couple seemed to recommend something to the Marquis, but when the Marquis shook his head, they showed a slight disappointment.
The Marquis seemed like he would go back straight after meeting the Baron couple. And Millian, who was caught between adults, was stealing glances at the Marquis with a blushing face.
Liv suddenly became a little concerned about the situation.
The Baron couple must be proud to show their friendship with the Marquis, but Millian…
“This is interesting. He’s not a fan of crowded places like this.”
Liv, who had been lost in thought, turned her head at those words. Liv carefully asked a question to Camille, who was watching the Marquis with an ambiguous smile.
“… Are you familiar with the Marquis of Dietrion?”
“What? No. No way. I just know as much as others know.”
That mumbling earlier sounded like they knew each other pretty well, though.
Liv tilted her head, and Camille suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked in a rather mischievous tone.
“Are you also interested in the Marquis?”
That question sounded to her as he was asking, “Are you also one of numerous women who fell and chased after that face?” It led Liv to grimace.
“Is there anyone in Buerno who isn’t interested in the Marquis of Dietrion?”
“Haha, that’s true!”
Camille burst out laughing, as though there was something funny about Liv’s coy reply. It was so loud that some people looked back at them for a moment even though they were in a corner.
And among them was the Marquis.
