The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

At least that’s what Ninaina said.

‘Seeing that she has such a curious face, as expected, the princess has hardly ever visited anyone’s house except for the imperial palace.’

And Prince Nicholas…

‘Um, I don’t know what he’s thinking because he has the same expressionless expression as usual. He’s not frowning, so it’s okay.’

And while I was lost in thought, Alice asked a question.

“Excuse me, Lady Emir. What flower is that flower? It looks so pretty in full bloom!”

“……Yes? Oh, if it is that flower… it’s a peony. I think peonies are pretty too! It is also the flower that our gardeners cherish and nurture the most.”

“Wow, Peony, what a pretty name! Well then… What is that flower?”

Alice has been asking questions about everything she sees in the garden.

I felt the surprised expression from Alice every time she heard an answer, so I answered it wholeheartedly.

After a while, Alice gave me a small exclamation and praised me.

“Really, there’s nothing Lady Emir doesn’t know. You’re smart… and cool.”

“Ah, haha, it’s not really that much… You’re exaggerating! Still, thank you for the compliment.”

I replied modestly, but the corners of my lips were straight upwards.

Hmmm, maybe it’s because I’m a little weak at compliments.

But then!

A beautiful rainbow-colored butterfly appeared in our sight.

At that moment, I felt an unknown sense of anxiety, and that anxiety soon became a reality.

“Wow! That butterfly is so pretty too! The butterfly has a rainbow… Lady Emir, what’s that butterfly’s name?”

Alice asked me a question.

“Well, that’s… that butterfly… well, actually, I’m not too…”

I couldn’t answer.

It was of course.

Because I didn’t know the name of that butterfly.

‘It was the first time I saw it in my life!’

How long were those few seconds of sweating and feeling embarrassed?

‘Oh, what to do? What should I say?’

To be honest, I didn’t want to disappoint Alice, who was staring right at me with bright eyes and a face as if I knew the name.

‘But I can’t even make up a name with a lie.’

If Alice later found out the real butterfly’s name, what would she think of me?

She’d think I was a pure liar.

Oh my God.

When I closed my eyes tightly with lamentation inside, I heard a word from behind.

“It’s a butterfly called Ezolet.”

I was surprised.

Who is this savior who saved me from trouble?

“His Highness the Prince?!”

Looking back, I saw none other than Nicholas.

Nicholas had a slight smirk on his face, as if he had reflexively answered a question about something he knew.

“…I’m sorry to interrupt. It’s just a butterfly I saw in an entomology book I read a few days ago.”

Alice also had a bewildered face, as if she did not know that the prince would answer.

To us, Nicholas made an excuse with a slight frown on his face.

Rather, I was a little surprised.

Politics, economics, society… Well, Nicholas, who I thought only read books like that, was also a kid who read entomology books?

‘Hmm, come to think of it, it seems that after seeing the divine beast Polly, he has been particularly interested in magic and animals.’

I quickly finished the process of convincing myself.

And I said to Nicholas.

“No, it’s okay. Actually, I was curious because I didn’t even know that butterfly’s name. Thank you for telling me.”

“……You’re, you’re welcome.”

Is it an illusion? He seems to be a little shy about me saying thank you.

Anyway, after hearing Nicholas’ answer, I finally saw an Ezolet butterfly flying and sitting on a branch right next to me.

The butterfly, which was beautiful even from afar, showed off a more fantastic figure when looked up close.

Without realizing it, I drew closer to the butterfly.

“Wait! You can’t get close. It has poison.”

But Nicholas managed to catch me and stopped me.

I blinked my eyes in embarrassment.

“…Is there poison?”

“Yes. There is a poison that paralyzes people in the powder scattered from its wings. Watch out.”

“Ah yes! I’ll be careful.”

I couldn’t hide my bewilderment and nodded my head.

In fact, it was more embarrassing that the beautiful butterfly was poisonous.

‘Did Nicholas help me?’

Nicholas, who seemed indifferent and uninterested in everything.

Prince Nicholas, who refused to invite me to play with him several times, ‘stood up on his own’ and stopped me for fear of getting hurt!

‘Hmm,hmm, what is it?’

Like a savior who came out in my troubles, and maybe…

‘Prince Nicholas, he may not be so blunt.’

* * *

We finally entered the mansion through the garden, and headed to the parlor.

Of course, there were those who seemed unhappy with going straight to the drawing room.

For example, the princess.

“Emir, I want to visit your room as well. I wonder what a noble girl’s room would look like.”

Ninaina looked like she was anxious to go to my room.

No, more than that! If you think of my room as the room of an ordinary noble girl, it would be a bit difficult!

‘…Ha, but I’m glad I cleaned it up the night before.’

I sighed inaudibly and thought.

At that moment, Alice, who was sitting next to me, greeted me.

“I, too, am curious about Lady Emir’s room!”

Well, if Alice does this.

Let’s reveal my room right away…?!
