Chapter 101

TL: Zimming

Camilla looked at the ladies coldly.

“What are you doing here?”

“Forgive me for my rudeness the other day. I will apologize to the lady.”

Mrs. George, who is important among the nobles, said so. She was looking at me while she was speaking.

‘The Georges had a lot of conflict within their family.’

Their ancestor left a will to give the second son a title, in which the current Count ignored the will using the vassals and Duke of Marche’s support.

Since the soldiers that the second son had on the outskirts of Noxstone became a big group of army, the Count and his wife were wary and secretly asked for support from others.

They didn’t know when, where or how they’d be attacked.

“If you knew it was an excuse, you should be self-reflecting.”

“Godmother, do you know my situation?”

When Mrs. Georges tried to grab her arm with a troubled look, Godmother simply removed her hand. Mrs. George’s expression darkened.

“You didn’t even respect me and the lady, why do I need to care about your situation?”

“Bu, But…!”

“Go back. Don’t even think about showing your face for a while.”

It was a strict order for her not to attend parties.

The other ladies also tried to beg her but Camilla’s expression remained the same.

‘Of course, it’s because they dared to send back my invitation.’

It was a rude thing that should never happen again. If I didn’t have the device, they wouldn’t have apologized until the end.

“Lady, what happened the other day is a really big mistake…!”

When their apology didn’t work for my godmother, they began to beg me directly.

My godmother looked at them fiercely and gently pulled my hand.

“There are many annoying flies outside. Let’s go inside.”

“Yes, godmother!”

I followed my godmother innocently without facing the ladies.

When we went inside, there were many people in front of the party room where my tea party would be held. Of course, they included those who returned my invitations.

My godmother and I entered the room calmly, and the guests followed behind.

My godmother’s expression was friendly when she saw the ladies who were already in the room.

It was those who accepted the invitation even though they knew that coming to my party would anger the Duchess of Vallua.

Some of them had a close relationship with my godmother, and some were just simply kind, they attended so that the young lady’s first tea party would not end in failure.

“Thank you for coming. I won’t forget your good deed.”

“It’s nothing. The second floor of Ropte Salon was the place I really wanted to visit anyway.”

“Little miss, say hello to the VIPs.”

Godmother patted me on the back and said, as I grabbed my skirt and bent my knees.

“Nice to meet you, my name is Leblaine Risette Dubbled!”

As I spoke energetically, they laughed and introduced themselves one by one.

“My name is Candida Dimonte.”

From old ladies to young children, they were all impressive people.

I accidently filtered out the insincere people.

This is all thanks to the Duchess of Vallua.

‘Thank you, Duchess of Vallua!’

The rest were all sincere people. The elderly ladies of a powerful family led the conversation so that everyone could join in.

We were talking with a friendly atmosphere. At the end of the conversation, I told Laura to bring the box to me.

“Well, godmother.”

“Yes?”

“My aunt told me that I need to prepare a small gift for my first party. So I prepared a present for you and everyone. Can I give it now?”

When I said shyly, my godmother smiled and said, “Of course.”

Laura handed out the envelopes from the box to the guests one by one.

She gave the most luxurious envelope to me, and I held it tightly as I looked at my godmother shyly.

The ladies who opened the envelope were shocked.

“This is…”

I nodded and said.

“I share my long distance teleportation device with my family. What I gave you is an improved scroll for teleportation that can travel up to 20 kilometers!”

Then the faces of the ladies who received the envelopes hardened.

The faces of my uninvited guests have also turned pale.

I grinned inwardly.

The plan to present the scrolls to all the guests was Henry’s idea.

“Why don`t you give them the scrolls as a gift?”

“Is it okay to just give them that? I think I should ask dad…he said that long-distance teleportation device is dangerous even just by owning it.”

“It doesn’t matter if you adjust the travel range.”

Henry added with a smile.

“Sometimes you have to share what’s in your hand so that they’ll be loyal to you.”

Henry’s expression looked really scary, so Isaac said,

“You’re so cool when you say that!”

I asked Veronica to make an improved version of the device.

“I can’t receive such a precious thing.”

Mrs. Dimonte put the scroll on the envelope with trembling hands.

“My aunt said that I need to give something precious to the people I cared about.”

Even my godmother smiled and said.

“It’s pure intention from the child’s heart. Just accept it.”

“…then I’ll be glad to receive it.”

Despite the rejection, they seemed to be excited because it was a very, very expensive gift, reaching 300,000 francs if they sell it on the market.

I gave four luxurious envelopes Laura brought to my godmother.

“This is my gift to you.”

“Thank…child, this is……!”

When she took the scroll out of the envelope, she hardened.

That was the long-distance scroll that could travel up to 8,000 kilometers.

When my godmother, who had already seen my device at the first prince’s birthday party, hardened, the people who saw what I gave said,

“The device…!.

“No way…are you sure?”

I nodded softly again this time.

“When Veronica tested it, it traveled up to 8,035 kilometers. Use it when you need it.”

Godmother grabbed my hand.

“Little miss, you shouldn’t give this to anyone. Get it back.”

“But it’s for my godmother!”

She looked perplexed yet moved.

“But…”

“My dad said it’s okay if it’s a gift for my godmother…”

Deliberately looking sad, one lady said,

“This is why you have to be careful with what you say.”

Then, laughter burst out all over the party.

I smiled broadly and hugged her waist.

“Please accept it! Yes? Yes?”

“Ah…I became a godmother to a great child.”

Then the guests went on and said.

“You really are blessed.”

Godmother gently stroked my cheek.

“I’ll thank you for this.”

“Great!”

Hehehe. I looked at the uninvited guest with a happy face.

Soon, those who were uninvited began to disperse.

‘They’re regretting it right?’

Thinking so, I grinned inwardly.

Then words have spread out that the Dubbled family gave scrolls to the guests.

The Duchess of Vallua looked at the empty garden and bit her lips.

“Brother, isn’t anyone coming to our party?”

Niel looked at his brother Hayton with a perplexed look. Hayton replied,

“Shut up.”

“But…”

As soon as Niel was muttering something, there was a crashing sound.

“M,mother…”

“Mother!”

The Duchess of Vallua swept away the vase and tea sets on the table and crashed them. Red blood trickled down from her hands.

“I’ll tear her to death…!”

This was all due to the orphan girl.

Niel’s case was investigated and they revoked his invitation to the imperial academy .

“Ca,calm down mother…”

“Your father! Where is your father? What’s he doing while I’m being treated like this!”

“He attended a conference…”

“What is he doing with my mother’s money spent on the useless device!”

The shouts of Duchess Vallua echoed in the garden.

***

The eyes of the noble were on the handsome man who was sitting.

Theodore Dubbled did not care about them, even though they were important nobles.

“I…Duke Dubbled. If you’re okay after the meeting is over, can we talk?”

“Oho, this rude person!”

“What’s all the fuss in the conference room? Don’t disturb Duke Dubbled.”

The chairman of the conference, the Duke of Marche, waited for Theodore Dubbled to talk.

The Duke of Dubbled, who was slowly tapping the armrest, opened his mouth.

“There are some people who returned my daughter’s invitation to a tea party.”

“……!”

“……!”

“……!”

As the faces of some nobles turned pale, the Duke of Dubbled continued,

“If you want to be safe, follow me quietly after the meeting.”

The hands of the nobles seemed to tremble.

Then, there was a knock in the conference room.

“I’m sorry.”

A man in a formal suit bearing the emblem of Dubbled entered the conference room.

He whispered as he approached the Duke of Dubbled.

“We found someone who had contact with Mireille and the inn couple.”

The Duke’s eyes went cold.
