In other words, this was a meeting of the new and old powers of the dukedom.

“Your Excellency, Young Lady, you must be tired from your long journey, shall we enter your residence?”

Novak-san, you have entirely ignored them! In a sense, he was the most merciless!

However, while they were enjoying the springtime of their lives, Big Brother, Novak-san and the rest of his entourage were in charge of ruling the Duke’s territory. Trying to keep them in my sights would be a waste of my optic nerve.

Anyway, why does this guy have such a big attitude? If he was trying to turn the tables by making Keira a mistress, he would have gone after Big Brother rather than using Keira.

I swear I would never be mean to Big Brother’s wife-to-be, no matter who she was. [Don’t bully the wife, ever!] was my motto in my heart.

If they wanted to prey on Big Brother for the sake of their own prosperity, then that would be a big no-no!

I mean, Big Brother, he seems to rather dislike you.

“I am not tired, but I am worried about Ekaterina. She’s been answering people’s questions with her frail body for a long time, and I’d like to see her rest soon.”

“It has been a pleasant journey for me. But if Big Brother asks me to rest, I will do so. So Big Brother rest yourself, too. I wish you all the best.”

“… you are such a sweet girl.”

With a kind smile, Alexei strokes his sister’s hair.

I thought I heard a rustle from the vertical roll lady and her cronies, what’s up?

“Young Lady.”

Knight Commander Rozen offered Ekaterina a small bouquet of flowers.

“One of the Knights received it from the Lords and said that a young girl and her sister had brought it to give to the young lady.”

“Oh, my, what a pleasant gift!”

Ekaterina couldn’t help but smile as she accepted the gift. It was a simple bouquet of roadside flowers, but it made her happy to think that a young child had come up with it as a gift on their own.

However,

“Oh my, I don’t like it, it’s filthy.”

There was a mocking voice. Of course, it was Keira, aka Miss Vertical Roll.

“Poor Ekaterina-sama, the mistress shouldn’t have touched those shabby flowers from the poor.”

…Hey.

“Keira-sama is right.”

“I wonder if the knight who received it was planning to insult Lady Ekaterina.”

“It’s so pitiful that she would be pleased with something like that. I wonder if there are any gentlemen who would give her a proper flower.”

Keira’s cronies giggle.

You guys sure know how to make your voices loud enough to be heard, don’t you? And you were excellent at being insensitive and not noticing that everyone in Big Brother’s entourage was getting pissed off, yes.

I was annoyed for a moment, but then I remembered immediately. This shoddiness was just like the [Yes Trio].

Ekaterina held her ear with one hand and chuckled at Rozen.

“Well, I think I just heard something that sounded like insect wings.”

Rozen’s eyes widened for a moment and she giggled.

“I wish it sounded a little more elegant now… but it can’t be helped, they’re not human, they’re just insects.”

For a change, Alexei’s entourage, including Novak and Aaron, seemed to be in the mood to burst out laughing.

“Sir Rozen, I would like to thank the knight for accepting the flowers. I am happy that you were kind to the little girl. I know that protecting the weak ladies and girls is the way of chivalry.”

“You are right. We, the Knights of Yurinova, know our mission is to protect the Dukes and Mistress as well as the people of Yurinova.”

Rozen bowed, and the knights of the Order who followed him smiled and bowed to the noble ladies.
