Chapter 12: Social Party 1

"Wow, big!"

There were no bandits or monsters on the way, and we arrived at the royal capital in 6 days as scheduled. The moment we arrived, I was surprised at the size of the wall surrounding the royal capital. It was a little less than 2 meters in our city, but here it’s close to 4 meters.

"Here"

"Ha! Your Excellency Margrave! I've confirmed it, please enter."

"Thank you"

Nobles and commoners have separate entrance gates. Commoners are still in a long line.

"Oh !!"

The city is busy and there are many food stalls.

"Thank you for your hard work"

"Not at all sir! See you in a week?"

"Yeah"

On the way back, Wallace will escort us. We left home with plenty of time, so the social party is three days later.

"Can I go out?"

"Because it's dangerous, wait until Andrei comes back."

"Okay"

As a Margrave, he also has a mansion in the capital. Andrei lives in the mansion. And now we’re supposed to stay in the mansion too.

"I wish Judson came too."

"He doesn't like things like this."

The second son, Judson, didn't come to the royal capital cause he likes to stay home and read books.

For the remaining three days, I had Andrei show me around the city, I practiced swings in the yard, and also how to walk and eliminate signs like Tira taught me, and three days later...

"Haah... I don't want to go ..."

"Brother ... Please decide already."

I’m riding in a carriage dressed in formal social clothing. Even so, Sophie looks great in her dress. Is she really the same gene as me? She's so cute that I want to ask.

"It's huge ......."

The venue was a room in the royal castle, so we headed there, but the royal castle I saw was very large. I thought our mansion was big, but this is incomparable.

"Then, Sophia, Zeros, let's go."

"Yes…"

"Yes"

I followed behind my father.

"Invitation"

"Here"

"I'll confirm ... Margrave Adolfo-sama. I've confirmed it, please go in."

"Thank you"

Security is also good because it’s a party where aristocrats gather at the royal castle.

Ghee ...

He pushed the big door and we entered the venue. There are food and drinks near the center. However, since the host, the royal family hadn't arrived yet, no one had touched it.

"Haah ..."

I sighed in a whisper so that no one would notice.

"Father! Who is that child?"

"cute…"

"Poof ..."

All the boys are facing Sophie. She’s cute so they can’t help staring at her. I’m proud of being a handsome guy but, the person next to me is too beautiful and everyone is distracted by her. Maybe they won't notice if I'm not there? With that in mind, I mobilized all the techniques taught by Tira-san.

"Picon! 』\

"You learned Stealth Lv.1"

"(nice!)"

After all, even though I practiced dozens of times, it didn’t reach the level of skill, I was happy to make progress.

Gash!

"eh?"

I was quite distant, but my sleeve was grabbed.

"Zero ni-san? Where are you going?"

“………”

Damn it ... The operation is a failure. How did I get caught!

"Fufu I can't lose sight of ni-san."

It seems it was impossible to get away from Sophie in the first place.
