“Isn’t it pretty?”

Marian stretched her hand into the air and took out a bracelet.

It was a silver ring with two twisted strands.

“…Yes.”

Seira sat down somewhat and nodded.

“Good. Now.”

“…Why is this.”

Seira, holding the bracelet with both hands, tilted her head.

“Do I really need to explain this?”

“ㅡNo.”

Seira lowered her head. When I put it on my wrist, it shrunk in size and fit perfectly. Soon, light flowed from the bracelet and penetrated onto the back of Seira’s hand.

“Let me explain something in particular.”

“…”

“Why is it bitter? Let me know if it stings.”

When Marian tilted her head, her pink eyes glowed coolly as they caught the light.

“ㅡNo.”

“Ajumma understands. When I look at the color of her hair, I feel a little different. Do you understand?”

“…”

“What is it? Don’t you understand?”

“No, it’s all my fault.”

“Right? If my hair was the same color as it used to be, it wouldn’t be like this. You know this too, right?”

“Yes, yes.”

“Okay, that’s all you have to do.”

Marian smiled, tapping her ankle. At the same time, she looked at Seira with calm eyes.

“Of course, the first function is that once you wear it, you can’t take it off until I take it off. huh? Why does the lady look like that? Looks very bitter? huh? What was originally supposed to be a slave necklace-like design, I was so kind that I made it into such a pretty and sophisticated design, right? huh? no? Slave necklace Do you like vintage style?”

“No. Thank you.”

“Yes, yes, the second one is natural, but you can think of it as a reinforced version of a slave collar. Originally, I am a person who hates being a slave, but she can’t help it. You understand, right?”

“Yes, yes.”

From then on, Marian consoled herself by craving her at random.

‘I feel like an old man who craves his subordinates. Why? ‘Do you feel refreshed?’

Some time has passed like that.

“Lady. Ready.”

“ㅡThat person is.”

Seira’s eyes trembled slightly at the sudden appearance of Nazar. Because she was wearing a thin gown.

“What are you, perverted lady? Our Nazar is not interested in the lady, so it’s okay not to worry about her.”

“Yes…”

“What Nazar says, think of it as mine and listen carefully, right?”

“Yes.”

Unlike the first time, Seira, who looked 10 years older, bowed her head and disappeared with Nazar, and Marian began to mutter, leaning deeply on the sofa.

“Mea. Did I go too far back?”

‘Maaaa.’

The sound of Mea’s cries coming right back makes me laugh.

“Okay. I can do whatever I want.”

‘Maa.’

“Sit down?”

I smiled kindly at Viscount Haoman, who was acting restless right in front of me.

“…….Why, Your Excellency, I understand that the princess called you.”

“Dad said he was worried.”

“…”

Hao Man kept his mouth shut.

“Do you understand your own work? What the Viscount did was a serious thing, right? I don’t know, but just because I was alone with the viscount, there were bad rumors about me, and not only my father but also the maids were upset, so I couldn’t help it.”

I poured tea into a teacup and sipped it. It was my personal favorite, the highest quality black tea.

‘But this person is shaking so much?’

I poured tea into his teacup as well.

“…Go, princess!!”

Haoman became thoughtful. The duke’s expression became even more grim. When he lightly touched the teacup, the cold water shook due to the tremors that started in his hand.

“Why? Do you hate tea?”

“Intake.”

dare? I can’t drink the tea my daughter pours for me? The duke’s meaning was conveyed so well with just his eyes that he couldn’t even breathe comfortably.

“…Don’t be so nervous, I won’t eat you.”

I quietly put down the teacup, clasped my hands together, and rested my chin on them. To put it simply, this person is a perverted sponsor.

He’s a subtle bad guy, not to say he’s a very bad guy. An offer is made to women who have no money or resources on the condition that they meet. But if you know it, it may be a good condition. In fact, it wouldn’t come to women who sell their bodies for a few pennies, but if it was done with mutual consent and it seemed like he was protecting the good, then… Above all, among the women who were sponsored by him, not a single one resented him. Since most of the women who held important positions above him or became independent were successful, he was even secretly looking after their backs.

‘…is this a perverted gentleman?’

Well, it’s not something I should worry about.

“…Yes.”

“It’s okay. I don’t feel sorry for the Viscount at all. I mean, you know?”

I smiled brightly as if it was true.

“But Jajak, that is that and this is this. Do you understand how big of a deal the Viscount has done?”

“I know.”

“Haedale Top, Horford Top, hand it over to me?”

“……Well, that is.”

“Do you like your own Lady Seira?”

“ㅡYes.”

He dyed his cheeks red. He was over 30, but he had the same shy face as a boy in love for the first time. I thought to myself, ‘Ugh,’ and asked hesitantly.

“Why do you like it?”

“……That’s because she was the first lady who approached me and told me that she liked me, not for money.”

“Um.”

It would be better not to talk about fantasy magic.

“There’s a little problem with Seira.”

“…what is the problem?”

“It’s a health problem. The cost of treatment is quite high and it is very difficult, including the cost of treatment and arranging a meeting with Seira. Top 3. how is it? Unconventional, right?”

It sounded like a complete robbery, but I smiled as if it really wasn’t true.

“Think about it yourself. You’ll have a lifelong companion and a cute daughter, right? What are you going to do with all that money? Do you think I don’t know that there are more than 10 merchants run by Viscounts?”

I nudged the papers in front of him. His top was a fairly clean top with no special irregularities.

Hao Man’s eyes were shaking wildly. It was shocking for a young girl to say that, but I couldn’t even look at her directly. The Duke glared at me as if he were going to kill me just by looking at my white legs proudly braided. All he could see was her shoes. Moreover, this data…

“…How do I do this?”

“Viscount, have you forgotten who I am?”

I closed my eyes slightly. Of course it’s a secret. If it became known that he, who had a bad reputation, was the owner of a merchant merchant, that alone would cause repercussions. Furthermore, the merchants I mentioned only mentioned the most important things, so I would have felt bad inside.

“Well, to wish you well, I will give you a 10% discount on transaction fees in the West. Of course, priority is given.”

I grinned and threw the documents.

‘You need carrots too.’

Moreover, the rest of his top was quite outstanding. If such companies advance to the West, it will be beneficial for us as well.

“Why? Don’t you like it?”

When I tilted my head, his head sank even further.

‘Isn’t he an easy person after all?’

If he was just a pervert, I wouldn’t have talked to him like this. Aside from being a pervert, his ability to run the top was real.

‘Besides, this person’

According to Nazar’s information, he liked children. Enough to send quite a large donation anonymously every month.

Just by looking at the system at the top, you can see the personality of the owner to some extent.

I think he will be a good father to Amanda as well.

Nazar also said that he is better than those who only pretend to be clean on the outside, and the only problem is his appearance… . Well, that was Seira’s problem, not mine.

He had his head down so I couldn’t read his expression.

“…Well then.”

Haoman gathered his strength and raised his head. I was just about to ask them to at least lower the fee.

What he saw was a princess with a charming smile and a duke glaring at him with a ghost-like expression behind her.

The Duke’s eyes were saying this.

‘You wouldn’t dare refuse the deal my daughter proposed, would you? Like you?’

Hao Man, who wanted to leave the place as quickly as possible, bowed his head deeply.

“No. Princess, I will do as you say.”

My hands and feet were shaking.

What should I do? Should I reduce my donations this month?

No, considering recent consumption in the West, you could make a lot of money just by entering the West.

Nowadays, the West has developed so much that it is hard to believe that it is the same empire, and even commoners are living a prosperous and prosperous life.

After completing a satisfactory transaction, I returned to my room.

“Hehe. It’s awesome, it’s awesome!”

-I spun around as if dancing and fell onto the bed.

I thought Viscount Haoman would be able to bargain quite a bit. So, I was willing to cut it by up to 30%, but I never thought that the 10% I initially threw in, not the 20%, would work.

“Ah. good night. After all, money is the best.”

After rolling around in bed for a while, I heard a knock.

“It’s Dad.”

“What’s going on?”

I just laid down on the bed and tilted my head back.

“It’s time for dinner, my princess.”

“Ah-”

It’s already that time. I was just lying around in bed, but time passed so quickly.

“Please hug me.”

I just stretched out my arms.

“This guy, he’s a fool.”

Dad smiled kindly and hugged me as lightly as a feather.

“Do you not like it?”

“That can’t be possible. My daughter doesn’t have enough courage.”

“Hehe. I will try my best.”

I was held tightly in my father’s arms and headed to the restaurant.

Immediately after, Maria also made a fuss about giving me a hug, but it was a happy meal like always.

Three months have passed.

The empire’s sudden abnormal climate.

Even the Arjean territory, which boasts fertile soil, could not escape the heavy snow.

The Duke’s conference room.

“As expected, you are the fortune of the family.”

“I never would have thought that grains from other continents would have been preoccupied just because it was hot during the swordsmanship competition.”

“As expected, your foresight is amazing.”

“You even distribute magic tools that block snow and wind.”

“You even grow sweet potatoes and potatoes as a hobby. It must not have been easy to harvest crops, no matter how useless the land was.”

Even thinking about it again, it was surprising.

You’ve already made a convenience food called ‘snack’ using crops you’ve grown as a hobby for several years. Unlike existing crops, it did not grow any mold even after several years.
