Perez, dressed in a neat black suit and a huge diamond brooch I gave him before, glowed even more today.
He's a genius who was capable using of Aura when he was 12 years old. And he's so handsome.
Perez's share price seems to rise vertically among the nobles.
"Perez, you look great today..."
"Pretty."
"...Huh?"
"Pretty."
Perez said with a slight smile under his long eyelashes.
"Oh, yeah. You're pretty today, too."
I answered half-heartedly.
"Thank you."
But Perez is very grateful.
I asked because I was a little curious.
"Are you not angry?"
"Angry? To you?”
Perez opened his eyes slightly wide as if he had heard something strange.
"No... Men don't like it that much when they called 'pretty'?"
Especially the kids.
But Perez rather smiled furtively and replied.
"Tia likes pretty things."
"Yes..."
It was when I was mulling over Perez's words.
"Your Highness The Second Prince, Lady Lombardy."
Mrs. Impigra approached us.
"It's time for you to enter."1
"Fin-, finally..."
My heart, which had subsided a little while talking to Perez, began to fluctuate again.
"Whoa..."
I take a long deep breath even though I know it won't help.
"Let's go in."
Mrs. Impigra came out and said, gently pushing Perez on the shoulder.
At the same time, the door, which had been closed in front of me, began to slowly open.
The voice of the servant introducing me leaked from inside the banquet hall.
"Lady Florentia Lombardy! As the only daughter of Lord Gallahan Lombardy..."
It's the first debutante of all my life.

After safely introducing himself and greeting each other, Perez and everyone stood hand in hand in front of their partner to perform their first dance.
I can feel people's eyes all over my body.
I whispered lowly to Perez, trying to force myself to relax.

"There are more people than I thought."
"I know."
"Perez, aren't you nervous?"
Perez glanced down at my hand and replied.
"I'm nervous."
"...a liar."
You're not nervous at all.
"But I'm glad."
"What?"
"You're so handsome, people will see you more."
"...is that so?"
Perez stared down at me for a moment and continued.
"I'm glad to hear that."
And that's when the music started.
Now, along with the familiar music, we slowly began to step on the steps.
One, two, three. One, two, three.
The first time was smooth.
I practiced so much that I had no fear of mistakes.
However, as we moved on to the second half, the song changed when the tempo became a little faster.

My tense legs were shaking as I missed a beat.
I'm doomed!
That was the only thought in a moment.
Until Perez's arm, which held my waist tightly, supported my body.
"Uh..."
I looked up at Perez in surprise.
"It's okay."
Perez smiled faintly and said a word in a low voice.
Perez was leading me all by himself, even as I was embarrassed and lost.
Looking into my eyes, I didn't lose my composure.
This was the only thought in my head as I came to my senses again and finished the second half safely.
When did he grow up so much?
The one who was squatting in the woods and eating the herb leaves, when did you?
While thinking so, the rest of the couples joined and finished the group dance once again.
And when the music ended with Cavaliers stepping back and bowing politely.
Perez kissed me briefly on the back of my hand as people applauded.1
Surprised, and flinched for a moment, but I didn't pull out my hand.
Perez smiled when he looked up to see if I felt it.
It was a deep, lingering smile.
A beautiful face that anyone else would have looked at in a white way, sounded a strange alarm to me. [1]
Something feels odd.
It looked like nothing special as usual, but something was different.
"Come here for a second."
Once we were out of the dance floor, I grabbed Perez's hand and led him to the table where the drinks were.
Fortunately, there aren't many people around.
"What's wrong with you?"
I asked in a small voice.
"What?"
Perez asked again with a casual face.
I think he's trying to pretend.
"It doesn't work for me. Tell me quickly. What's going on?"
Ever since Perez appeared as debutante Cavalier, it felt strangely strange and strangely annoying.
There's definitely something.
"How can you...You know me that well?"
Perez said with a slightly frowned eyebrow.
"What, new. We're friends. Isn't that obvious?"
"Is that so..."
Perez smiled slightly for some reason as if he had lost his energy.
"Yeah, so tell me. What are you thinking about?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
