Civil Servant in a Romance Fantasy chapter 51

The manager was satisfied with you – 3

I caught Louise before she fell, but I can’t help but worry about my ankle because I stumbled in high heels. Where is the person running in high heels? I didn’t mean to hurt you.

It seems to be okay now, but the pain may come later. If there are members nearby, they will take care of Louise on their own, but they don’t have them because they really need them. Incompetent bastards.

That said, for me to wear Louise, there is a partner called Margeta. It’s rude to be with someone else when you have a partner. Rather, it is an example of a relationship that can be more awkward than rejecting a partner application when you receive it.

“I’m sorry. I need to stick to my partner role.”

“It’s okay. It bothers me to leave my juniors behind too.”

Nevertheless, I was moved by the way he responded as if nothing had happened. It’s like the fact that she visited Louise before and gave her advice, and unexpectedly, Marghetta seems to be genuinely concerned about Louise. Or it could be that he simply cares about his juniors. Either way, for a noble princess, it’s a warm-hearted attitude.

“Lady Louise, too, be careful from now on. It’s a pity that Carl Young-shik caught you, you almost got hurt.”

“Yes, senpai. Thank you so much!”

Louise, as if moved by Marghetta’s goodwill, nodded his head with his twinkling eyes. It seems like only yesterday that he was scolded by Marghetta and giggled in the club room, but now it seems that he has overcome his fearful first impression. It’s rare that we meet each other, but it’s good if we can get rid of the bad impression.

Like that, they entered the banquet hall with Marghetta on the left and Louise on the right side by side. When the composition of two was increased to three, questionable eyes were pierced from the surroundings, but soon everyone turned their attention. It’s a virtue of blue blood to draw attention to things that don’t seem to benefit from digging.

“Oh.”

“Wow, that’s pretty.”

And as soon as I entered the banquet hall, I was almost blinded by the splendor and grandeur. It was absurd that the whole huge building was a banquet hall, but the interior was also made of gold coins stacked on top of each other. Of the three, the only one who didn’t react was Marghetta, who we saw last year.

“Brother, look at that.”

“Uh. I’m watching too.”

At Louise’s words, whispering softly and pointing her eyes towards the ceiling, my eyes also turned to the ceiling.

‘Are they really crazy bastards?’

Huge chandeliers hung everywhere, making one afraid to know how much the budget was spent on. It looks like all kinds of jewels are studded with gold as the base.

“Even if the chandelier in the academy was cleaned, the urgent fire would be put out.”

“Did you have a nap? What kind of nonsense are you talking about different budgets?”

“You wouldn’t believe a guy with a private tutoring degree.”

“No sh*t, they suddenly attack with academic ability.”

Two years ago, the words the Minister muttered during the unprecedented situation when the Treasury Ministry’s surplus funds were at rock bottom. At the time, I passed it on thinking that a crazy nobleman was saying crazy things. Even if it is just enough to put out an urgent fire, the amount that affects the huge department of the Treasury is staggering.

But you get it by turning on the academy chandelier? I thought he was just saying that I had never been to an academy. It’s like teasing someone from a remote area that you have to take off your shoes to ride the subway.

‘It was real.’

The minister’s words were true. Apels These crazy bastards, the more you talk about them, the more ghost stories come out. Did you spend all this money in the banquet hall? It is understandable that other countries turned away from Apels at once during the invasion of Apels. At least he would have judged Kfellofen to be less of an asshole than Apels.

In an unexpected place, while Kpelofen felt a legitimate reason for holding the Mandate of Heaven, the members Louise sent first found us and gathered.

“Let’s have fun with each other.”

He slapped Louise on the back and said. Torture between the members, it’s not good to have a 21-year-old between 17-year-olds. There are even things that made me feel at ease when I met eyes with Villar, who was quietly tucked away in the corner. If Villar is there, there is no need for me to stick closely.

“Have a good time, older brother. Senior too.”

“Yes, Lady Louise. I hope you have a good time too.”

Louise, who was about to say something, turned to Marghetta and he obediently let me go. Apparently, since I came as Marghetta’s partner, I couldn’t bear to catch her. Until now, Louise had no members to take care of, so she stayed with her, but now that there are five of them, it’s okay.

I took Marghetta’s hand and fell backwards. Now, you just have to sit down and pass the time until you can dance.

“Your brother was there as well. Would you like to toast together to celebrate the championship? Of course, your partner as well.”

It was unexpected for Tanian to catch me like that.

“You guys did the hard work, so you guys should enjoy it by yourself. I don’t have to care.”

“Shouldn’t we share the joy of the club with torture as well?”

Why do you say normal things only at times like this? It would be more comfortable if I stayed consistent and stayed like an idiot, but every time I go through it, it’s unfamiliar.

“You’re right. Do that, Carl Youngsik.”

“Mar?”

Without even having time to think about how she would refuse, Marghetta stepped forward and accepted Tanian’s offer.

“Isn’t it difficult for an advisor to leave the members behind?

“It’s embarrassing to be so cared for.”

“On the other hand, I can never give up dancing. Please know that.”

“Of course.”

If you can’t even do the only request of a person who keeps making concessions over and over again, that’s not a person. It’s not that hard to dance…

‘It must be difficult.’

Where would I be dancing in the first place? It was rare to attend social circles, and when they did, most of them hung out with older nobles.

A belated thought came to me and I carefully looked down at Marghetta’s feet. I could see small feet tucked into red high heels. The idea that I might keep stepping on those fragile-looking feet while dancing made me dizzy.

‘If I step on it wrong, it will break.’

Suddenly, anxiety raised my head at the sight of Marghetta tilting her head as if wondering at my sudden lowering of her eyes.

***

The older brother and the princess held hands and moved to the center. Other students dodged and made a path for the two to pass, but it was so natural that it seemed natural, not strange.

“There’s really no one among us.”

“Why are you bored? If it’s okay to dance with men, I’ll join you.”

“Haha. I’ll decline.”

“It’s fortunate. I was really nervous about what to do if I asked to do it.”

As I listened to Ainter and Leuteis exchanging jokes, I looked at their backs. Maybe I was dancing with someone from the club next to me. Brother, it might be boring to dance alone, so there was a word that a member next to me should dance with me.

However, dancing is performed by men and women in pairs. I was the only woman in the confectionery club, so I had to choose one out of five. All five are good friends. I was hesitant because I thought the other four would be disappointed if I chose someone here. Relationships can be deepened by trivial occasions, or they can be broken.

“Dance? Louise sprained her ankle, so be careful. If you guys want to dance by yourself, I won’t stop you.”

My older brother supported me, as if he knew my hesitation. It’s okay, but you can dance enough if you’re careful.

But seeing my older brother who stepped up for me and nodded slightly so that only I could see, I couldn’t bear to say that it was okay. When the members also said that their ankles hurt, they didn’t express their regrets, but rather worried.

‘I’m sorry.’

I couldn’t even apologize. If I could dance with all five of them, I would be happy to dance, but I couldn’t do it if I chose just one.

As I lowered my gaze to the floor, my legs naturally caught my eye. And the high heels that made me fall down in front of my older brother.

‘Embarrassing…’

I closed my eyes when I remembered what had just happened. Embarrassed. It’s too embarrassing. If I could turn back time, I would like to go back to the time before that and stop myself from running.

I was so excited after receiving the unexpected trophy. So when I saw my brother, I ran as usual, and it was only after I leaned forward that I noticed that the shoes were different.

‘Wow…!’

After that, thinking about being held in my brother’s arms makes me want to cover his face and sit down. It was obvious that if I did that in this place, the members would worry, so all I could do was bite my lips. You idiot, why did you do that…!

There was even a princess behind my brother. You must have attended as your brother’s partner, but you showed this in front of your partner. I thought you would be angry. Even when we first met, the aristocrats valued the dignity of the young lady. But now I’ve done things that are too out of step with that dignity.

“Shall we go in together?”

“Lady Louise might be hurt, right?”

However, Contrary to expectations, Princess Gongnyeo didn’t get angry, and instead showed warm consideration. Rather, she worried about me when I almost fell to the floor.

I was so moved that I was ashamed of myself, who had been afraid of the Princess until now. Yes, my older brother also said at the time that it wasn’t because the princess had malicious intentions. Also, what you said was right. The princess also let go of her embarrassing appearance.

And it seemed that my brother and the princess were close enough to know the princess’s personality well.

‘You look good.’

My older brother who was with the princess seemed to be in a better mood than yesterday. It seemed that being with the princess was more effective than asking the staff to comfort me.

‘As expected, I’m no help…’

While I was happy that my older brother had regained his strength, my heart throbbed at the fact that my role was insignificant. But you can’t help it. The princess must have a much deeper relationship with her brother than I do.

‘It’s fortunate.’

Still, it’s really fortunate that there is someone close enough to open up to my brother. Because I can’t play that role. Yes, even now the two of you are dancing really beautifully, right?

I blinked my eyes several times while watching my brother and the princess. Something weird?

‘Brother?’

How many times do you step on the Princess’ feet?

‘Princess?’

I think you’ve been stepped on a little hard now. Are you okay?

I looked blankly at them and before I knew it, the two of them were returning to where we were after finishing the dance.

The older brother’s expression stiffened and his gaze turned to the floor, and the princess had a bright smile even though her face was slightly red.

‘Princess…’

And there was a slight tear in the eyes of the princess. I saw it more clearly than anyone else, but for the sake of the princess, I decided not to see it. Because the princess seems to be happy.
