Perez's lips felt hot on the back of my hand.

"What are you doing?"

I said as I pulled my hand out of his grasp.

Perez then replied, bending over.

"I heard Madam Impigra say that I was supposed to greet you like this at first.”

I looked around and everyone was saying hello to their Cavalier.

"That's true."

As Perez said, everyone was bowing politely to the debutante and doing the same greeting.

"But no one kissed the back of their lady's hand like you?”

"…I know."

I'm the one who's rather taken aback by Perez's very easygoing response.

Did the other Cavaliers skip the kissing part because they're shy?

That could be it.

Unlike me and Perez, they all seemed new or barely acquainted.

"You didn't say anything in your letter a few days ago. Why are you suddenly showing up like this?”

"To surprise you. Are you surprised?”

Perez leaned slightly towards me and asked.

"A little? You suddenly came here and become my Cavalier, how much did…”

It was unfamiliar.

It wasn't the Perez I used to know.

Perez was close to what I had seen in the crowd in my previous life who looked across the banquet hall.

"How much, what?"

"I am surprised."

"Then I succeeded."

Perez smiled faintly.

"I've already written a letter and I was about to send it to you, but Madam Impigra came to Poirak Palace asking me to be your Cavalier. It's also a great opportunity to impress the nobles."

"I see."

Impigra was looking proudly at the young aristocrats who were having awkward conversations.

She was right.

Is there any other place where everyone's eyes are as focused as the imperial debutante ball?

It was obviously a great opportunity for Perez.

But why.

What is the intention of Madam Impigra?

Given that she is the only one in the palace who is at odds with the Empress, I don't think she's going to take a bad turn against Perez.

"Perez, I never thought I'd make my debut with you.”

I didn't even know that.

In his previous life, Perez did not enter society until he returned from the academy.

He was completely forgotten, to the point that there was a happening where the banquet hall gatekeeper refused Perez's entry because he wasn't recognized.2

"Then who were you going to do it with if not me?"1

Perez asked me, tilting his head.

"With whom? Hmm...”

Come to think of it, yes.

Choosing one of my twin cousins hurts their pride for some reason.

It would seem like I had no other choice but to go with a relative because I don't have anyone else to go with.

"Yes, since I'm doing it, I'd rather do it with you."

When I said that, Perez nodded again and curled up his lips faintly.

It was a very satisfied face.

"Well, please take care of me."

"It's an honor, Lady Lombardy."

Perez once again bowed politely and smiled.

"One, two, three... One, two, three...”

Pairs of men and women moved together following the rhythm of the dance teacher brought by Impigra.

The unique steps of the Imperial Debutante, close to waltz, were very different from the usual social dance in the Empire.

So I heard screams from all over the place as they were unfamiliar with it.

"Oh, my God, I'm sorry!"

"Argh, my foot!"

There were small disturbances here and there, stepping on each other's feet, regardless of whether they were men or women.

"Excuse me, Lady Lombardy and His Highness…”

"How can they both be so good at this?"

Except for us.

Perez, who grabbed my waist lightly, was even showing the ease of turning in advance so that I wouldn't bump into other people in the middle.

"There's nothing you can't do.”

This man must be a fraud!

He's smart, good at studying, he does everything well even when we were young, and he's handsome.

Now, Perez has become a man who naturally attracts many enemies and ladies.

"Are you sure you're learning this dance for the first time?"

Maybe Madam Impigra gave him a prior education?

"It's my first time dancing."

"But why are you so…”

Why are so skilled?

Perez was much better than other children who had not officially made their social debut and had attended various kinds of banquets.

Even now, everyone can't take their eyes off Perez's leisurely steps.

"And what about Tia?"

Perhaps because his face was so close, Perez's voice can be heard right by my ears.

"Tia is a great dancer."

"Me? well...”

I wasn't as relaxed as Perez, but I was keeping up with it.

"I didn't know, but I guess I'm more of a socialite. The dance and everything else."

But it was no match for Perez.

"At this rate, everyone will be busy watching you, rather than me in debutante.”

Because Perez, whose black hair sways with every movement, is really handsome even to me.

Even now, when I'm standing with boys of different ages, I feel like I'm seeing a peacock standing alone in a flock of chickens.1

Perhaps he felt a blank stare, Perez looked at me with a slight tilt of his head.

It was then.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Lady Lombardy!"

A couple dancing nearby turned toward us and the boy's shoulder slightly hit my back.
