"Perfect, Lady Lombardy. It's perfect."

Madam Impigra nodded very satisfactorily and praised me.

Clap clap clap

Then, the ladies of the Royal Palace who were standing behind the podium clapped their hands in silence.

"Hmph!"

Maive Kaporia killing gaze stares at me.

"Wow, Ms. Florentia! You're amazing!"

Tilliana praises me with her sparkling eyes.

She’s like Craney.

This has been repeated every debutant practice day.

I'm tired of compliments.

Hoot.

But of course, I won’t lose my humility.

"I'm flattered. It's because Madam Impigra taught me well."

She really did.

I was surprisingly cut out for society.

I was nervous because I heard a lot of terrible rumors about society, such as 'The Battleground Without a Knife.' and 'Where Today's Winner Is Tomorrow's Loser.'.

My sword was sharper than I thought, and I was not a man falling off a cliff, but a man who overcame it.2

I don't know if I can be this happy after winning against young girls who are only 10 years old. (It's okay tia, you're 12 y/o too, not to mention your souls, wkwkwk)

Anyway, I had my eyes firmly stamped on Impigra.

All right, it's going according to plan.

"Can you teach me the secret?"

Tiliana asked me.

"I thought you'd be good at anything… How can you speak so perfectly?"

Debutante practice is divided into morning and afternoon, and this morning's lesson was about 'speech'.

Since they were all born and raised in noble families, they could use basic aristocratic conversation methods, but they took more reinforcement classes for their debutante and future social life.

However, Tiliana was particularly having difficulties.

"Nobody in the East uses this phrase. It's so frustrating to beat around the bush like this.” [1]

It was far from the center of the Empire, and the seaside people had a strong Eastern culture.

"If you don't want to dance anymore, why don't you just say it's hard? I don't know why I have to make an excuse about shoes or makeup."

Tilliana shook her head as if she couldn't understand.

"This will make you the rudest young girl in the history of the Imperial Debutante..."

Tiliana murmured gloomily.

"That will be considered disrespectful. The most important thing is to ‘keep smiling’."

"Is that so…”

It was when Tilliana laughs vaguely.

"I envy Lady Gitterwell for not having to go through the trouble of learning how to speak."

It was Lady Campadell, the leader of Miss Kaporia’s lackeys, who walked toward us and talked.

I heard that she was 14 years old this year, but she was particularly tall. It’s not hard to believe that she is already an adult.

"You don't have to say no to flowers on the wall. Whoo-hoo!"

Kaporia and her lackeys often teased and ignored Tiliana, saying she was from an Eastern rural family that she had never heard of.

Tilliana was very intimidated because they laughed at the way she spoke and her culture is a little different from the Central Empire, saying it was because she was a 'town idiot.'.

Even now, Tilliana's big frightened eyes turned to me.

Try it out.

I winked at her. 'keep smiling' I taught you a while ago.

Tiliana, who nodded while swallowing her saliva, rolled up the corners of her mouth and smiled, and looked at Lady Campadell.

"What, why, why are you smiling?"

Lady Campadell was stunned when Tiliana, who was timidly intimidated every day suddenly smiled.

"There's no point in putting on a brave face! Who would want to dance with a low-ranking Eastern aristocrat that no one knows?”

Despite the repeated verbal bombardment, Tilliana clenched her teeth and held on smiling.

Lady Campadell's eyes shook and soon mumbled, frowning.

"…Gee, I'm really offended.”

You feel worse.

I stared at Campadel's young girl from behind, but Tiliana was delighted.

"Lady Campadell picked a fight, and it's the first time I've done it without crying! As expected of Florentia! You've taught me a great secret!"

Tiliana, who is delighted by the small things, reminds me of Perez, whose eyes always sparkle after having a chocolate cookie.

If we finish practice early today, shall I go see Perez since I’m in the Palace?

Soon the break was over, and the afternoon class began.

Both tables and chairs in the banquet hall were emptied and large spaces were prepared.

"I'd like to talk about the procedure for the Imperial Debutante ball."

Mrs. Impigra said, looking back at the young children standing.

"When the ball starts, the young ladies will be called in one by one.”

“The ladies's brief personal information is introduced. Of course, your Cavalier will escort you."

The ladies, who were quietly listening to the words Cavalier and partner, stirred.

"After that, it's the most important step in the debutante ball. The group dance that the participants do with Cavalier is the highlight of the debutante."

Impigra explained in a calm voice.

"But not all eight couples start dancing at once. A pair selected by my organizers, including myself, will begin the dance first. Of course, you'll get everyone's attention at the banquet, so you'll be chosen as the best and most beautiful pair.”

Only one pair, with everyone's attention.

How nice it would be to make a social debut like that!

The ladies’s eyes glistened with ambition.

"When that pair’s dance is over, the rest of you will naturally join in and dance together."

"Well, then...”

As soon as Impigra was finished, Lady Campadell raised her hand and asked.

"How do I get my Cavalier? Am I supposed to ask a man to be a cavalier himself...”
