Now that the public emergency court meeting has ended, social circles will soon begin to return to normal.
Before leaving for the territory, Agatha also had to finish her last autumn social gathering.
Before that, she needs to make time to spend with her friends.
'I'll be busy for a while.'
Agatha immediately took up her pen so that Lady Iris's messenger could receive the reply.
"My dear friend, Madame Iris.
I too am very happy to receive your affectionate letter as soon as everything is over.
My heart is pounding with anticipation as I think about spending some quality time with Madame Iris and my other close friends after such a long time.
I remember that we were going to hold this salon at Madame Iris's mansion.
I would be happy to invite you anytime.
With excitement, Agatha Nobilis."
After finishing the letter, Agatha dried the ink and sprayed it with her favorite lilac perfume.
A single purple statis stem was buried and the symbol of the Nobilis family was stamped onto the wax.
“Have this passed on to the messenger.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
As Allen left, Enoch opened his mouth.
“It looks like we have a new schedule.”
“Yes, I think I should go to Madame Iris’s mansion.”
Since she won't be in the capital this winter, she thought she should make the most of the remaining social time in the fall.
Of course, in winter, just like in the middle of summer, many people go to their villas or resorts, so they don't have to worry about it that much.
Enoch added, silently cutting the steak.
“What a shame. I thought I could monopolize your time even before you went down to the territory.”
“...You have a monopoly right now.”
“I always feel like I’m lacking something. In that sense, would you like to take a walk around the greenhouse with me after dinner?”
“Yeah, okay.”
It was the first autumn they had experienced in this mansion.
From spring to late fall.
Agatha has been so busy that she's never even had a proper date with him.
She wanted to spend more time with him in the future.
'I want to go to the territory soon.'
Of course, there will be a lot of work there too.
Most of these could be resolved at the lord's castle, so the time spent with him would be long.
She'll be able to sleep in too.
After finishing her meal, Agatha stood up, taking the hand he extended to her.
The crime of sedition.
The capital city, which had been in chaos due to the occurrence of that great sin, began to gradually return to its original atmosphere.
Although it was an unpleasant incident, it was actually a beneficial event for the empire.
The nobles were already excited about the new neutral zone.
“How about spending this winter there?”
“The coastline is also very beautiful, isn’t it? It’s also very close to the island that was recently selected as a trading post with the Eastern Continent, so it’ll probably have an even more exotic atmosphere.”
“Right next to it is the estate that the Marquis Aratus received as compensation?”
“I heard that the verdict for the Territory War was handed down a few days ago. I heard that it was a landslide victory for the Nobilis and Aratus families.”
When the story of the Mainukor Empire came up as a topic of conversation, the story of the Nobilis and Aratus families, who suffered the greatest damage and compensation at the same time, could not be left out.
The capital was bustling with all sorts of talk.
Early in the morning, the second mansion of the capital city of Nobilis began to wake up.
Enoch placed a bed tray in front of Agatha, who was lying slightly curled up on the bed.
It was a simple breakfast of freshly baked croissants, bite-sized pieces of fruit, and a glass of wine.
“Good morning, Agatha.”
The delicious smell of bread that made her feel good slowly woke her up from a deep sleep.
“...Did you sleep well?”
“Yes. Would you like to stand up?”
Enoch sat down next to her, placing a bed tray on her lap. He piled pillows behind her and kissed her messy hair repeatedly.
“I told you to get ready quickly because I heard there was a tea party in the morning.”
“Yeah, this is enough.”
As she reached out and took a sip of the warm wine, it felt like the real morning had begun.
Enoch asked, cutting the croissant in half.
“I didn’t hear about your plans for the afternoon yesterday.”
“I’m thinking of returning to the mansion after the tea party. I’ll catch up on some work and get some clothes to wear at the estate during the winter.”
“Then we can have dinner together.”
It was their own salon, opened after they had only exchanged letters but had not seen each other in person.
Agatha decided to take her time and move.
“I will contact you if there are any changes.”
“Okay, I guess I should go now.”
Agatha suddenly raised her head and kissed his cheek.
“Have a nice trip, Enoch.”
“...”
The maids waiting nearby looked away and pretended not to hear anything.
The man who had been quietly looking down lowered his head and kissed her on the cheek.
“Yes. I will be back, ma’am.”
Agatha waved her hand. Today was the day when the normalized court meetings resumed.
The inquiry will probably take a long time.
If she brings it from Lady Iris's mansion by lunchtime, she might return around the same time.
Agatha, who checked the time, looked at her maid, Jessie. Jessie immediately reported.
“Madam, the bath water is ready.”
“What about the dress?”
“I just got there. I brought it into the room, so after you wash up and come out, I’ll show you the matching accessories and shoes.”
"Good."
She had to get moving now to attend the salon scheduled for the morning.
Agatha went straight to the bathroom. The round ivory bathtub was filled with medicinal herbs and flower petals that were good for relieving fatigue, giving off a sweet and sour scent.
After relaxing in the warm water, she went out and went into the bedroom.
On one side, there are dozens of dresses hanging on hangers, and in the center, there are two full-length mirrors placed around a sofa.
Next to it were neatly arranged jewelry boxes, shoes, fans, etc.
“Madam, what kind of dress would you like to wear today?”
Leaning back on the sofa, Agatha looked through the dresses she had ordered a few days ago.
The fabric of the dress had become slightly thicker to suit the increasingly cold weather.
One of the most eye-catching pieces was an off-the-shoulder dress in a light apricot color.
The cuffs were slightly tightened and the puffed shirring sleeves had delicate pleats.
A large embroidered belt around the waist.
The skirt was a refreshing dress with ruffles.
“I think it would be nice to wear a white fur cloak over that.”
“How about the white rabbit fur cloak you just made?”
“That sounds good.”
It was around noon when Agatha left the room.
Take a carriage that has passed the safety inspection.
Agatha headed to the Marquis of Domunia under the ironclad escort of the Second Vice-Captain Hubert Carwen and the knights of Aratus.
The capital Domunia mansion was not far from the honeymoon mansion.
Not long after entering the street, the main gate of the Marquis Domunia's mansion came into view.
Madame Iris, who was waiting in front of the main mansion, greeted them warmly.
“Welcome, Madame Agatha.”
“It’s been a while, Madam Iris. I’m not the one who’s late, am I?”
“Not at all. I was just excited to see you, so I came out to meet you first. Are you okay now?”
It was obvious that Mrs. Iris had come out to the front door to greet him to say this.
Agatha smiled brightly.
“Yes. As you know, Madam Iris, everything has been resolved well. And it will continue to be so.”
“I am relieved to hear you say so. Come this way, Lady Agatha. Other friends have arrived as well.”
Mrs. Iris took the lead and led the way to the prepared tea party room.
The salon was held today on the second floor, in a charming room with a large window overlooking the backyard.
Warm air flowed in as if the fire had been lit early.
The Duchess Kate Evelyn, the Marchioness Vanessa Beatriz, the Countess Celia Cameron, and Madame Charlotte, who had arrived first in the space decorated with red silk and wooden furniture, stood up from their seats.
“Oh my, Madame Agatha!”
“How long has it been since I last saw you? I really missed you.”
“Welcome, Madam. I have been waiting for you to come for a long time.”
“I’m so happy to see you in person after only hearing from you through letters.”
Agatha smiled and returned each greeting.
The empty seats are filled.
As soon as Madame Iris took her seat next to Agatha, a full-fledged tea party began.
The maids came in silently, put down sweet desserts and fragrant flower tea, and disappeared.
Madam Celia, who was very interested in tea, was the first to react.
“Is this the new tea that Madame Iris brought in?”
“That’s right. I told you at our last meeting, right? It came from the Eastern Continent and it tastes good.”
It was a great tea with a mild aroma, an elegant taste, and a clean aftertaste.
'I think Enoch would like it.'
He also liked tea with a clean aftertaste. Agatha asked, putting down her teacup.
“Madam Iris, your tea is very good. Do you know where you got it?”
“Nowadays, with the opening of trade through the Pallavi Islands, a lot of good quality tea has been imported to the Antrar Castle. What is it? It is said to have been brought from there.”
"Aha."
Then it will be at the top of Nobilis too.
She thought it would be okay to just tell the owner to bring it to her.
Then Lady Vanessa asked with her eyes shining meaningfully.
“But doesn’t Madame Agatha like sweet tea?”
“Well, my husband likes tea with a clean aftertaste.”
“Oh my God!”
“Oh my God, Madame Agatha!”
Hearing screams erupting from all directions, Agatha covered her slightly embarrassed face with her fan.
Come to think of it, this seems like the first time something like this has happened.
Before leaving for the territory, Agatha also had to finish her last autumn social gathering.
Before that, she needs to make time to spend with her friends.
