TVOTP - Chapter 39




"Honestly, I don't know where the snow goes."

"I think it's on my toes."

"I don't think I even got it on my feet. I suspect that he is blind."

"He is a war hero, but he is very arrogant. I have never been Interested in this issue, so I moved on. In fact, there are many problems."

"Is that so?"

"Come on, come closer."

The Duke of Argenthoz led Rudnine to a room where only the two of them could hear and hesitated for a long time.

The Duke of Argenthoz, who poured out the Crown Prince's problems to Rudnine, felt a cool feeling in his frustrated stomach.

So he impulsively suggested to Rudnine.

"Duke Iels, I didn't know you were such a good person. Why don't you come to my house tonight and have a meal with me?"

"Thank you. I'll go."

He wonders if it was 0.1 seconds.

He was surprised by Rudnine's quick response, but Duke Argenthoz thought Rudnine was very polite, unlike a young man these days.

After already excitedly talking about Prince Adrian, the bean pod about Rudnine was firmly on it.

Rudnine, who was looking at the back of the Duke of Argenthoz, happily going to work after inviting him to dinner, belatedly smiled brightly.

He went straight back to his mansion to get ready quickly.

He received a huge offer that he didn't expect.

'Dinner!'

It's morning now.

When can I go for dinner?

'Is Yvonne in the mansion today? Will we be able to meet...?'

His heart had already arrived at the Argenthoz mansion, and Rudnine's heart was beating fast with excitement.

He felt a heavy heartbeat. Rudnine's black eyes sparkled like stars.

I miss her as soon as possible.

***

"Ugh."

When the corners of my eyes became tight, I rubbed both eyes with the back of my hand and stretched.

'Oh, I'm trying to live diligently for the first time in a long time, so I'm very tired.'

After clearing up my laziness, I was very busy contacting Randy through the magic communication system early in the morning and giving instructions.

I ordered Randy to contact the owner of the handmade cosmetics store 'Palette', which I visited yesterday.

I told him to be careful not to find out that Princess Argenthoz was behind him.

I also sent a sample of Rhodia full to President Palette to see if the same product as the herbal cosmetics process could be produced in a short time.

The answer I received a few hours later was possible.

"Good, as expected!"

Of course. I knew it would work, but I was worried that I would answer no, so I smiled with joy.

According to Randy, Rhodia grass does not have any special effects compared to other herbs, but it has a good aroma, so President Palette is also very positive about the product.

"Whoa. Not only does it smell good, but it also has a special effect. The boss will also sit on the money cushion."

I grinned.

After receiving this report from Randy, I went through the list of cosmetics I had received from the pallet president.

No matter how much cosmetics contain rhodia grass, it must be effective against skin diseases to be rumored and in demand.

'Hmm. What kind of product should I use to make it so that it is just right and can be sold at a high price?

I sat on the chair and thought about it for a long time, and then I suddenly remembered something that I had been wondering strangely since the last time.

"By the way. For what... Will skin diseases spread only to the nobility? Well, is there a problem with the food that only aristocrats eat?"

I frowned and shook my head.

Since the season is summer, there was a possibility that the problem was the ingredients that spoil easily.

'Well, I have the possibility of eating it too.'

Suddenly scared, I ran to the mirror to check the condition of my skin, but it was still white and firm today.

I have to be careful. Well, even if I get a skin disease anyway, I'm okay because I have Rhodia grass.

As someone receiving the treatment, I didn't have much to worry about, so I turned my head with relief.

"Hmm."

Then my eyes went to something on the table.

There was a gift that arrived for me this morning.

"It's a bath salt."

A bath salt was sent to me by a Young lady, whose name I had never heard of in my life, as a gift.

It is said that the name is 'Fountain of the Sun'.

She suddenly sent me bath salts as a gift, saying that an aristocrat who seemed to have never met me would suit me well.

I was dumbfounded.

Am I stupid? There's no way you can use such bath salts carelessly.

Naturally, the situation is 100% doubtful.

'Who would send me a gift out of the blue as a villain? This is a trap, of course.'

Although her identity was definitely the family's young lady, it was clear that she would be behind her.

So I ordered them to be taken away immediately, but Carol carefully stopped me.

Carol, who has wide feet, found out that the 'Fountain of the Sun' is a very famous bath salt among the nobles of the fortress.

The skin becomes smooth and radiant, and it is an expensive bath salt that is difficult for even ordinary aristocrats to obtain.

When I heard the information Carol gave me, my eyes immediately sparkled.

'Wow! I made a windfall.'

So I'm going to write it?

Do you know? You have to sell it and make money! It is a matter of collecting dust.

I grinned and suddenly had a good idea.

'Bath salts. Isn't it just right?'

I thought it would be nice to use the Rhodia grass cosmetics I made as bath salts.

Because, isn't the weather just summer right now?

You will often take a bath in the summer when you sweat a lot because it is hot, and then the demand for bath salts will increase.

I would secretly spread the word, but if it was sold during the season when there was a lot of demand for bath salts, the word would spread more quickly.

I was embarrassed to receive a suspicious bath salt as a gift in the morning, but it was a turning point for me to get a good idea, and I felt very good.

I snapped my fingers and stood up.

"Great! Solve my problems! We should discuss it right away. Carol, I need to eat something sweet."

"Yes, Princess."

I looked at Carol with a bright smile, but for some reason, my eyes went to Carol's ear.

"Hmm...?"

It was inevitable.

'What is it?'

When I opened my eyes wide, the nape of my neck felt cold.

The bomb artifact earrings embedded in Carol's left ear, which Yvonne had given to wear, were shining with a strange red glow!

"No!"

With an ominous Intuition, I instinctively ran to Carol and grabbed the earring from her ear.

I heard something cracking and tearing, but I couldn't help but feel guilty.

Carol shouted, as if she was embarrassed by my sudden action rather than the pain of her ears being torn.

"Princess?! Why are you doing that!"

"Get out of the way, Carol!"

I grabbed the bomb artifact earrings I had snatched from Carol's ear and quickly ran towards the window.

This brief moment of running to the window flowed slowly, like slow motion in a movie.

Is this what it feels like to feel a chill down your spine?

'It's midday now, so the temperature is too high. The gardener will also be resting. No one!'

At this critical moment, I made a decision after assessing the situation.

There will be no employees.

And no one will visit the Argenthoz Mansion from daylight today.

I quickly threw the ominous bomb earrings out of Carol's ears out the window.

And...

Kwaquaguaguaguang-!!!

A tremendous roar echoed through the mansion.

"Wow! Princess, it's dangerous, avoid it!"

Carol's screams were heard at first glance through the roar.

According to my intuition, the bomb artifact I threw exploded in the air before it could hit the garden floor.

Cold sweat flowed down my neck and down my spine.

If only I were a little late.

'Hey, what's going on?! I almost got hit by a bomb!'

I was so distracted.

The heat that spread in the air after the explosion was hot, and the wind in the aftermath made my hair flutter.

"Cough, cougj!"

And the dust caused by the bomb was everywhere, and I coughed continuously.

"Cough... Hmm?"

However, amid the dust, I caught sight of red rose petals fluttering in the air.

'Petals...?'

I looked up to see if it was some kind of petal.

Heavy dust fell first, followed by a gentle rain of red flowers.

Romantic red rose petals in this mess.

I was fascinated by the strange scenery that not only didn't fit in, but also contradicted each other, and I was horrified when I looked out the window.

This was because I could see a human figure in the thick dust sinking.

'I thought no one would be there!'

First of all, I wanted to faint just because there was someone below.

No, by the way. Exactly, that person...

"Yvonne."

He made eye contact with me, who was hanging from the window frame with my eyes wide open and looking down, and called my name.

His voice is clearly audible to my ears.

"Duke?!"

"Yes."

...I'm going crazy.

Oh, God.

Who is God here?

No matter what, please call it a dream.

However, contrary to my earnest wishes, this was not a dream, but a definite reality.

The dust clouds cleared, and the shapes became clearer.

And in the midst of it stood Rudnine with a sword.

He is a sword master.

A normal person would have been seriously injured, but he protected himself from the bomb with the powerful aura emitted by the Sword Master.

It was breathtakingly cool, but I wasn't allowed to enjoy it.

"I just want to pass out..."

I wanted to run away from this amazing situation.

However, Yvonne's nerve cords were usually thick, and instead of fainting, my mind became clearer.

'Oh... I'm ruined.'

I didn't want to bother Rudnine anymore.

"Oh."

In the hand of Rudnine, who was hit by my bomb out of nowhere, there was something in his hand that was originally a bouquet of flowers, leaving only a miserable shape.

He smiled sadly, alternating between me and the broken bouquet of flowers hanging from the window.

"...I didn't expect Yvonne to welcome me. Nevertheless... I'm fine with anything..."

I opened his mouth and said, "What's going on?"

But it was so small that I couldn't hear exactly what they were saying.

However, I guessed this and got goosebumps.

'Are you going to crush it yourself like this bouquet today?'
