episode_0235

In the original, Gavin targets Adele.

Adele’s father was initially in the position of Gavin’s ‘teacher’, but in reality, he was just being beaten by Gavin.

In the original, the male protagonists robbed Amelia and the Gavin family in the novel I read, but in this world, that hasn’t happened yet.

More than that, I still don’t know how Diane and Allen ended up getting engaged.

Perhaps, seeing Amelia having fun together made him impatient?

Anyway, in order to blame Count Hoover for the collapse of this place, we needed the author’s eldest son, Johnny, who was still walking around fine.

“Nice to meet you.”

Johnny said and glanced around.

Only high-ranking people.

First of all, I was the daughter of the same baron, but in terms of the importance of my family, it was rude to compare myself with Baron Gavin, and there was no need to say anything to the Grand Duchess Amelia, whom I was escorting, or the Crown Princess I was talking to.

In fact, it was not a position where one would dare to talk to a common nobleman in the middle.

The problem is, I guess, that Johnny from Binge doesn’t understand his topic properly.

It was a problem for me, but it was a good thing for us. There was no need to drag Adele all the way here using the beauty world.

“… … Yes, nice to meet you.”

That’s how Adele greeted him.

“Could it be that we know each other?”

When Adele asked that question, Gavin shook his head.

“No. This is our first time talking to each other like this. So we are not close friends. As I said a little while ago, it is our first time meeting each other.”

“Oh, I was wondering if we’ve met each other briefly before.”

“I have never met him in person, but I know Lady Carlins’ father.”

At that moment, Adele’s eyes trembled slightly.

You probably know what kind of family writer Gavin Nam is because you heard it from Amelia yesterday.

“My father… … I would be honored if you could tell me how you became acquainted with author Gavin Nam.”

“Because I am learning swordsmanship from my father.”

“Ah… … .”

Adele looked a little confused as to whether she should be relieved or not.

“I have often heard stories about you, but you are even more beautiful in person. In fact, I have already seen your face from afar at a banquet.”

“Yes, you are.”

Adele answered, trying to keep her smiling face as much as possible.

“I… … Was it rude during the conversation?”

“No.”

Evan, who was listening next to me, answered right away.

“Because I took a short break from conversation.”

It was like that in reality too.

Still, it was rude to attack nobles higher than oneself by arbitrarily attacking them at that moment.

At the very least, he should have been introduced first through a noble of similar rank.

Gavin bowed politely to Evan.

There was a happy expression on her face. It may have been hard to believe when she said it, but Lady Carlins seemed to be close to the high-ranking people in the country—or so she seemed to be thinking.

“Then, I can’t help but have a drink on such a happy day. Wait a minute.”

Gavin called a courier who was passing by, handed the glass of alcohol on the tray to Adele, and took one for himself.

Meanwhile, Evan, I, and Amelia each grabbed a drink.

“Ah, yes.”

Evan muttered as if something suddenly occurred to him,

“Could you wait a moment before drinking? He is my friend’s father’s disciple, so I can’t just ignore him. Finally, my younger brother—the crown prince of this country is also quite close to Adele.”

Gavin’s eyes widened slightly.

… … Although I had met Allen in front of the Carlins residence a few days ago, she seemed to have no idea that the woman was Allen.

Without giving Evan a chance to say anything, he grabbed the hand of Allen, who was talking nearby, and dragged him towards him.

“Sister, sister!”

Allen was brought in with a slightly embarrassed expression.

Of course it’s acting.

Because I already decided to do it this way.

In fact, Adele had a nervous expression on her face. In fact, it was because she knew in advance that she would drink the alcohol containing the medicine.

… … No matter how you think about it, taking the crown prince of this country by giving him poison is an insane plan.

It could be said that the world itself is crazy in that it is the most suitable place for such crazy operations.

While Evan was coming this way, he cleverly picked up another glass. It was a long-necked champagne glass, so there was no major problem other than a little bit of drink spilling when he held it in both hands.

“character.”

“Sister too.”

Allen grumbled, but took the glass that Evan had passed to him.

“Meet the Crown Prince.”

“Huh? Ah. Is he the eldest son of Baron Gavin?”

“Did you know me?”

“I did a little research on the people who will visit here. Isn’t it the Count Hoover faction?”

“It is a relationship that is a bit too affectionate to express with the cold word ‘clique’.”

Gavin said jokingly, as if he were joking.

“Is it okay if I don’t call Diane?”

Amelia said that and turned her head.

Diane was talking with her father and other nobles in a far away place.

The reason they don’t come this way is probably because Adel is here.

The engagement ceremony has arrived. When you wake up in a few hours, there will be an engagement ceremony, and from that day on, Diane and Allen will become a de facto couple.

Since it is an engagement, it may be broken, but engagements between nobles are not something that can be easily seen.

Following Amelia’s gaze, Gavin’s gaze also returned with curiosity for a moment.

Meanwhile, Allen and Adele quickly exchanged glasses.

That’s the end of the preparation.

“You don’t have to do that. Still, when I took Allen away from the customers, all eyes were drawn to this. I don’t want to be resented any more.”

Evan said tremblingly and raised his glass.

“Then, for my younger brother who will become a married man starting tomorrow.”

“Sister!”

Allen shouted as if he was embarrassed.

“Hmm? Oh, I’m sorry. Did you intend for Baron Yeongsik to give the toast?”

“Haha, no. It is an honor for the family to be able to participate in the Crown Princess’s toast.”

Apparently, I had no idea.

Well, maybe Gavin is a really straight-faced guy and didn’t bring any medicine.

If so, this operation will fail… … At that time, Amelia, I, and Adele were planning to steal Diane away.

One of the two operations is to take away the crown prince, and the other is to take away his fiancée.

No matter how you think about it, both were crazy actions, but if only one of them succeeds, that’s it.

We slightly raised our glasses and brought them to our own mouths.

Gavin’s eyes are on Adele.

And after looking at that face, I realized that Gavin had put something in Adele’s glass.

In fact, I already knew I had succeeded because Evan was already smiling next to me.

Even in the original work, it was Evan who saved Adele.

Even though he is currently giving medicine to his younger brother.

“… … .”

Allen took his mouth off the glass with a slightly nervous expression.

And we continued talking about nothing special for a while.

The effect didn’t appear right away, but it didn’t take that long.

“Allen, your face looks a little red. Are you drunk?”

“Yes?Ah.”

At first glance, Allen didn’t look much different from usual except for his slightly red face, but when he opened his mouth, a very high-pitched voice came out, which was different from usual.

There was a little laughter from those around me.

You’d think it was just because I was drunk, of course.

But Gavin’s face turned blue.

“That… … Huh?”

The words come out strangely.

Allen stumbled a little.

As I slid to the side and supported his body, Allen put his arm around my shoulder and leaned against it.

For some reason, that hand was a bit creepy.

“Ah—suddenly, it’s hot, sister.”

Saying that, Allen unbuttoned a few buttons.

In front of others.

No, even if the effect is good, isn’t it too good?

“Uh, wait a minute, Allen!”

Evan pretended to be embarrassed and stood next to Allen, but did not actively block his moving hand.

Allen put his hand into his unbuttoned front button and took out a handful of cloth.

It was a bandage tied around the chest.

The people around me froze as they saw the white cloth sticking out in a long, straight line.

“Hiya.”

Allen threw the cloth on the floor.

Allen’s chest was now visible to anyone who could see it. It wasn’t that big to begin with, but men’s clothes were basically made to fit the chest circumference.

“Allen!”

A scream was heard in the distance. It was the voice of Her Majesty the Queen.

“Mother?”

Allen turned his head and made eye contact with me.

Then, after looking at me blankly, he pushed his lips forward and moved closer to me.

I covered his mouth with my hand.

“I guess my younger brother is too drunk.”

Evan said, grabbing his brother’s other arm and putting it on his shoulder.

“Or, I ate something strange.”

Gavin’s face was now as blank as a sheet of paper.
