When Viscount Buckingham opened the box, there were four identical rings inside.

“What is this?”

“These are rings enchanted with communication magic.”

In response to Laurent’s question, Viscount Buckingham proudly extended the box towards him.

“Hmm…”

Laurent scratched his head at his words.

“It seems you haven’t realized the value of this yet. With just one of these rings from this box, you could easily purchase a mansion.”

“Wow!”

Laurent’s eyes widened at Viscount Buckingham’s words.

“Now, everyone, reach out your hands.”

Viscount Buckingham either intended to hand over the ring himself or took out a ring and approached Laurent.

“Here, take it.”

“Thank you.”

Surprisingly, Viscount Buckingham calmly placed a ring on each person’s hand.

He placed a ring on Lotus and Aramis’s hands and stood in front of me.

Thinking that he would place the ring on my hand, I reached out my right hand.

“Not this hand.”

Viscount Buckingham grabbed my left hand.

He then inserted the ring onto my left ring finger.

“Wait…?”

I tried to pull away his hand to remove the ring, but he quickly inserted the ring onto my left ring finger.

“If you want to take it off, go outside and take it off.”

As I tried to take off the ring to put it on a different finger, Viscount Buckingham quickly said.

“Yes…”

I tried to take off the ring but ended up putting it back on my left ring finger.

“Would you like to try using it?”

“How do I use it?”

“Pull the gem on the ring upwards and turn it in any direction to connect with another person.”

As Viscount Buckingham turned the gem on the ring on my left hand, it emitted light.

“Oh, the light is coming to me.”

Aramis showed me the ring with the light coming in.

“Now, try speaking into it.”

“Marie.”

[Marie.]

Aramis’s voice flowed from the ring.

“I’ll try too.”

When Lotus raised the gem and turned it to the right, he connected with Laurent.

“Who is connected?”

“Seems to be me.”

Laurent extended his fist forward, showing the ring with Lotus’s voice flowing out.

“How do you like the reward?”

“Yes, I really like it.”

I stroked the ring on my finger with my finger.

“To show my appreciation for your efforts, I will request an audience with His Majesty King William VII for you.”

“It’s okay. I don’t think we need to receive an audience from His Majesty King Britom.”

Lotus and Aramis nodded at my words.

“Then let’s have dinner together.”

“I think dinner would be fine.”

“I will inform my chef today to wash away the bad reputation of Britom cuisine for you.”

As Viscount Buckingham smiled, we felt a sense of foreboding.

Since that evening dinner with Viscount Buckingham, we avoided eating fish dishes for a while.

How can you put fish in jelly or in a pie?

It seemed that a bad reputation was not easily shaken off.

During a sparring session with Laurent in the training ground, I suddenly felt dizzy and walked into the forest.

Laurent approached me from behind while I held onto a tree pillar and leaned back with my hips, inserting something inside me.

“Ah…! Yes…!”

Each time Laurent’s object penetrated deep inside, my head spun.

“Ah…! Ah…!”

As the object grazed and passed through the convoluted folds inside me, pleasure exploded.

“Ah…?! Ah…!”

When Laurent focused on a sensitive spot, my shoulders trembled.

Having been intimate with him frequently, he seemed to know my weaknesses completely.

“Oh… Oh…! Just a little more…!”

The pleasure that surged up to the back of my head turned my mind white.

I reached back and held Laurent’s hand as my upper body turned sideways, causing my chest to bounce.

“Ah…! Once more!”

“Ah…!”

Laurent pulled me towards him.

Plop! Plop! Plop!

“Ah! Ugh…”

The sound of flesh colliding resonated loudly.

“I’m coming…!”

“Ugh…”

As his large member plunged deep into my belly, releasing a flood of semen, I struggled to stand on my trembling legs before finally collapsing to the ground.

“Phew…”

As the throbbing in my lower abdomen subsided, I could finally breathe comfortably.

“Are you okay?”

Laurent handed me a handkerchief.

“Somewhat.”

I had been on the verge of fainting when I first succumbed to Laurent’s addictive Orange Sapphire, but after being repeatedly penetrated for months, I had grown accustomed to it.

“Madam.”

As Laurent and I emerged from the bushes, Leia approached us.

The faces of her maids behind her were flushed red.

They too seemed accustomed to my intimate activities with Laurent, as they blushed but made no further comment.

Initially, the maids had been shocked and hysterical when they witnessed me and Laurent resolving the aftermath of the Orange Sapphire. It took a lot of explanation for them to understand and accept it, but every time I saw their reactions, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

“What’s the matter?”

“I’ve selected the invitations for the tea party.”

“Do we really have to go?”

“If it’s not to your liking, it’s fine, but I think there are tea parties you should attend, considering Lord Laurent’s position.”

I hadn’t realized during my time in Britom, but ever since attending the royal banquets, I had been flooded with invitations. Upon returning home, I was still bewildered by the pile of letters Leia handed me.

I had asked Leia for help as my head felt like it was about to explode while reading through each letter to decide whether to attend or not.

“I guess we should go…”

I stretched my arms upwards for a quick stretch.

“Starting with the Marquis of La Roche’s tea party would be a good idea.”

Honestly, I wondered what the point was of gathering noble ladies to drink tea and chat. I thought it would be more productive to grab a sword and go out to duel with the Duke of Orleang’s subordinates.

“It might be as beneficial as wielding a sword and charging out, so why not give it a try?”

Leia seemed to have read my thoughts, which surprised me.

“If you really don’t want to go, think of it as guarding the tea party of the royalist nobles.”

That reasoning made it seem more acceptable.

“So, when do we have to go?”

“This afternoon, right away.”

“Today?”

“Yes, this afternoon.”

“But don’t we have to prepare?”

“I’ll help you with dressing up.”

“Alright, we should get ready quickly.”

“I wonder what I should do?”

“You can take care of yourself, Laurent.”

I left Laurent behind and hurriedly left the mansion.

“Oh… Welcome, please come in.”

Upon arriving at the Marquis’s mansion, the Marquis greeted us, or rather, he welcomed Laurent beside me.

‘Oh dear…’

Unlike the Marquis, the other noble ladies from the royalist faction sparkled with interest as they looked at me.

“Nice to see you, Lord Laurent!”

“It’s been a while since we met at the last banquet.”

“I saw you in action at that time!”

It seemed that sometimes I was surrounded by women like this.

If I were a man, I wouldn’t even have had such an opportunity.

“It’s been a while.”

While the other noble ladies were showing interest in me or not, the Marquis approached Laurent.

“Yes, it’s been a while.”

Laurent bowed his head politely in greeting to the Marquis.

“Marquis.”

“Yes.”

When I called her, the Marquis gave me a cold look and stared at me with her chin up.

“Thank you for the invitation.”

“Well…”

Whether she was offended by my words or not, she looked at me with a sullen expression.

“Rojang Young-ae?”

“Speak.”

“How long will you continue to call me ‘Lady Rojang Young-ae’?”

“Is there any other way to address you?”

“Especially me! Considering that you saved me along with Viscount Bastogne, I will allow you to call me by my name.”

The royal faction of Young-ae behind her took a deep breath at her words.

“I envy you… I also want to call Lady Rojang Young-ae by her name…”

“Well, then…”

Judging by their reactions, one could see how strong the influence Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae held.

“Understood, Lady Rojang Viscount Young…”

“Ahem!”

Unintentionally, I almost called her Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae, but she cleared her throat loudly.

“Um… well…”

To be honest, I don’t know Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae’s name.

I thought calling her ‘Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae’ was enough, did I really need to know her name?

“You surely know my name, right?”

“I apologize…”

I chuckled awkwardly and scratched my head.

“I was wondering why you always referred to me as Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae without calling my name…”

I had nothing to say to her words.

But I didn’t really care much about Lady Rojang Viscount Young-ae.

“Remember it well. My name is ‘Pia de Rojang’.”

“Got it, Pia.”

“Hehe! Now, let’s go inside.”

Pia took Laurent’s hand and entered the tea party venue.

“What on earth…?”

It seemed like she either considered me an enemy or was deliberately restraining me.

I followed Pia to the tea party venue.

“I will wait over there.”

Laurent headed towards where the guards were.
