“Young Lady, may I introduce my wife, Aurora.”

Ekaterina’s face lit up at Forli’s words. Wow, I had been wanting to talk to her!

“It is a pleasure to meet you.”

But just as Ekaterina was about to say this, a voice called out to her.

“Please wait!”

It was Mrs. Vertical Roll who came out of the crowd.

–Who told you to make the “wait a minute” call? Who the heck do you think you are, Mrs. Red Whale?

Ekaterina’s mind returned to her old-fashioned way of thinking of a woman who had lived for around 30 years.

Mrs. Vertical Roll, unaware of Ekaterina’s inner thoughts, gave Alexei a magnificent kneeling bow, as expected.

“Your Excellency, as a member of the first branch of the Novadine family, I will risk my life to admonish you!”

“Please do not defile the Dukes of Yurinova’s four hundred years of history. She is a barbarian who does not know how to live in a decent house and spends her days crawling through the mountains. She is an outlaw who does not respect the imperial order!”

She continued.

“Many of our venerable subjects are gathered here. You should not leave them all behind to exchange words with such a lowly person! Even if I am scolded, it is my duty to protect my lord’s honor, as Alexandra-sama has personally taught me the pride of nobility. Please listen to me!”

Countess Novadine bowed her head deeply with a seemingly tragic atmosphere.

Ekaterina glanced up at Alexei, whose eyes were frozen like glaciers as he stared at the woman.

Hey, Mrs. Vertical Roll. Big Brother, who didn’t like socializing, was having a nice conversation with Forli-San just a few minutes ago. You ruined it!

What you say may be the logic of this world. There must be a certain number of upper-class people here who may even agree with you in their hearts. In episodes of the history of the past, this kind of thinking was often prevalent.

However, when you talk about order and then storm into this place while Big Brother was talking to someone, it was you who was being too rude, according to the logic of this world. Why did you all think that you were allowed to do whatever you wanted?

So, Ekaterina gently tugged on her brother’s sleeve and whispered. She tried to keep her voice loud enough to be heard.

“Big Brother…she said she was Grandmother’s maid, but I wonder if Grandmother would allow a servant to behave in such a rude manner.”

Alexei’s lips curled into a smile.

“There would be no such thing as forgiveness for doing something so rude. Everyone here knows that she was like that.”

Around us, there was a nod of agreement that spread like ripples.

“Of course there won’t be, right? I have observed it from Grandmother myself. I am so ashamed of you, and I am so distressed that you call yourself the head of a branch of the family and yet, you are like this.”

Alexei’s face flushed as Ekaterina held up her ample bosom, which was adorned with an opulent sapphire necklace.

The boys who had been staring at Ekaterina’s bosom had focused their gazes on it, and then looked away in a panic.

“Ekaterina, you poor thing…. What a treacherous person to make you suffer. Now, with my own hands, let me cut them down and throw them away.”

…uh, Big Brother, you are joking, aren’t you?

No, it’s not a joke! His neon blue eyes, which always seemed to shine with their own light, glowed even more brightly, and he was as powerful as the devil king himself!

“You, Your Excellency…”

Countess Novadine’s face was pale, even though she had just said she was willing to risk her life.

Ekaterina touched her brother’s shoulder and shook her head.

“Big Brother, please do not do this. I would never allow you to defile your blade for me.”
