“Wow, that was a fantastic show.”
“I appreciate the compliment, Princess.”
“Would it be possible for me to buy these dresses under an exclusive contract with the Ram clan and bring them to the desert country?”
The madam almost fainted and cried in response to the princess’s question. She gave clothes to the Ram clan princess as a gift in the hope that it would generate some publicity. But she never expected to receive such a generous offer.
Of course, there was no reason to dislike it, so I reached out and requested a handshake.
“All right, let’s eat first and then talk about the exclusive contract; we’re hungry.”
The party was in a good mood.
I, in particular, couldn’t stop smiling.
“Congratulations.”
“Thank you very much, Your Royal Highness.”
“Your capability never fails to amaze me. If the Kun clan enjoys proving their strength with force, the Ram clan proves it with wealth. Furthermore, it is good for Hertiti as she can return to her home country with a new product.”
It felt wonderful to receive congratulations from the princess.
I’m looking forward to the dress sales today, but I can’t imagine how popular it will be in the desert in the future.
It made me feel good just thinking about it.
“You worked really hard.”
“Yes…”
Madame accepted the congratulations in tears.
I relished the thrill of seeing everything with my own eyes.
“It’s almost like a funeral home over there, while a party was being held here.”
While I was doing so, a knight with light blue hair appeared and began speaking to me.
I smiled broadly and offered Ziontin some golden champagne.
“Greetings, Dame Ziontin!”
“Well, I didn’t go there for your sake; I went there out of curiosity.”
“Is that so? Then how was it?”
I didn’t see Ziontin among the guests, but that didn’t bother me because Ziontin’s presence is almost a miracle.
But for her tp go over there to check on the situation… I couldn’t say how grateful I was.
“It was ruined.”
“Wow, really?”
“You’ll be glad to see it; it’s completely ruined.”
In contrast to the cheerful atmosphere of this place, it appears to be rather dead there. Far from being sorry, I burst out laughing so hard that my stomach ached.
“Ha… so that’s how it tastes.”
I’m experiencing a surge of pleasure that causes my hair to stand on end. But I had only just begun to taste victory. I toasted as I waited for Sir Aragon’s return.

Dioles Terran was far from idle. It means that even if Titania had held a fashion show, she would not have come if it hadn’t been for friendly exchanges with the desert country.
Because she has a personality that despises wasting time, everything she does has a purpose.
If she only had to complete the first goal, she could return to the imperial palace after watching the show.
However, Dioles went to the banquet and stayed there after the show.
The reason for this was due to her cousin’s unusual behavior today.
“Hertiti has requested that Titania be added to the desert delegation, which I intend to approve.”
She said something that could have been expressed in writing instead. Lacius, who had been quietly listening, was the only one who understood the underlying meaning of her words.
“Titania might not agree with that.”
“I don’t think she’ll mind; with this, I’ve already paid off my debt to you.”
“This will not suffice if you mean that long media manipulation.”
“Hmm, then let me assist you, because there doesn’t appear to be any progress between the two of you.”
Dioles was very quick-witted. Everyone believes Titania and Lacius were in a “till death do us part” relationship, but only Dioles could tell at first glance that this was not the case.
Lacius. Her poor cousin was currently in unrequited love.
“Once you’re in the desert together, everything will change; it’s a really hot land.”
“…… How I wish it were like that.”
“My God, your emotional expression has greatly improved.”
After falling in love, the previously expressionless guy can now display such a complicated expression.
Dioles did not hide her curiosity.
She never imagined that Lasius de Schweden, of all people, would fall in love.
“This older sister will listen to you, so tell me what’s bothering you about Titania.”
“There is no problem.”
“Then what exactly is it?”
Dioles’ blue eyes were tinged with delight.
To think that in her life she would be able to listen to Lacius’ dating concerns.
Titania was truly priceless. Doesn’t she provide a lot of entertainment?
“Well, I want to express my feelings for her, but I’m not sure if I’m doing it correctly because I’m not skilled at it; I want to be with her in everything she does, and take care of the things she doesn’t like… But I’m not sure if this is also what she wants.”
Lacius’ gaze shifted to the other side. She is a woman who captures his attention like a newly bloomed spring rose. He had been so worried about her since she collapsed the other day that he wanted to follow her every move.
But Shay is someone who would shine even without him. She was a self-sufficient individual who didn’t require his assistance. His presence is also not essential to her.
Shay was forced to accept his protection. It’s possible she didn’t like it.
“I grew up as a knight, and being the leader of the Knights of Rentus suits me the best of the three positions I have.”
“Uhm, that’s right; I can see it as well.”
“That’s why I don’t know anything except to preserve and protect the weak, but she’s strong, and I’m not sure what I can do for her or to make her happy.”
“It’s interesting; if those ladies who are crazy about you hear those words, it will be a confession that will make them cry and not eat for three days straight.”
Lacius made a painful expression at her joking words.
Shay most likely has no idea.
He suddenly had a favorite color after meeting her.
Before, it was just a plant to him. A plant part that is neither a root, a leaf, nor a stem. A flower.
What had no meaning and was only perceived as such became a ‘flower,’ then a ‘rose,’ after it was named after her.
Only now did Lacius recognize a flower for what it was and a rose for what it was.
