Actually, I Was The Real One
Chapter 34
"…”
At that time, Rose predicted that the woman would not succeed in pretending to be a poor village noble.
He could never do a show like that.
Never was!
Keira: “What would Rose do if she were dating? Hmm?"
“…”
With her eyes shining like that, Rose inevitably replied. Despite the obvious failure, he had no choice but to give advice.
Rose: “Pairs who do not have money will usually take a train or airship to look around the capital.”
Keyra: "I understand."
Rose wondered how her mistress, who refused public seats in the theater because people were 'sitting nearby', would ride on public trains or airships.
Rose: “But it may be a little inconvenient for you as it is public transportation for commoners. Are you sure you don't mind?”
Keyra: “Don't worry. I've been to pubs where regular people go.”
He said it with great pride. After all, he had tried low-grade side dishes and appetizers [1] .
If Sir Joseph heard what Keira said, he would be hurt and confused as to what to say.
They went to a bar used by commoners, but that didn't mean 'cheap.' He would never bring such a precious woman to such a place!
The food he thought was low-grade was not low-grade at all. First of all, the fruits themselves are quite expensive. Dried fruits will be more expensive.
Rose: “If you don't mind, it's okay. I'll make you as beautiful as I can.”
Keyra: "Yes, thank you."
Keira smirked as she imagined a beautiful Sunday with the handsome man.
'I'm nervous…'
Unaware of Rose's worried gaze, Keira thought hard about her plan.
'An airship is better than a train.'
It would be more romantic to see the capital from the air.
She is about to meet a man who could someday be her lover, but she wonders if a crowded place will provide them with a good romantic atmosphere.
If it was just the two of them, they would be able to hold hands and have a conversation easily…
After much thought, Keira made a decision, which would make Rose even more worried.
"I'll have to arrange a one-day rental."
He didn't buy everything. He only rented it for a day, so it should be fine.
So, the operation to pretend to be a poor rural noble failed before it even began.
......................
'If a man does something unusual he does, he will die.'
What was the reason such words came to mind today?
Robert, the butler, stared confusedly at the woman who smelled flowers in the garden.
Robert: "Mrs?"
Keira: “Oh, Robert, what's up?”
Robert :”A-is that you, madam? Are you going out...?”
It was as if he had noticed why he was reacting this way, Keira said, hiding her embarrassment.
Keira: “I won't be out. I'm just in a good mood today.”
Keira is heavily armed. The pigtails of his horse were usually combed back half down and decorated with colorful jewel pins. Her clothes were also a little different than usual.
Unlike her usual insistence on a white blouse and a neat long skirt inside the house, she was now wearing a bright sky blue dress. The delicate sky blue lace made the butler wonder about the price of such an expensive outfit.
She just said she doesn't have to go out, but she also wears make up!
Not just that. His ears and neck were decorated with gold jewelry.
Keyra: “Why? Do I look weird?”
Robert: “Oh, not at all. You look beautiful."
He could even smell a hint of the delicate fruity scent, most likely a perfume, from the venerable woman.
A beautiful woman without effort will become more beautiful if she decides to dress up.
However, the problem is…
'Why are you doing this?'
Looks like the woman has become a different person from last week. He abruptly quit his job as a knight, often ignoring calls from the Grand Duke, and stating that he would participate in social activities.
There is a saying that people who do what they are not used to do die.
Keira's change was so remarkable that Robert thought of unreasonable speculation.
But the shocking sight did not end there.
The woman hummed as she walked, and plucked flowers to put in her ears!
'???'
Dozens of question marks appeared in Robert's head.
Miss, you're not this kind of character, are you?
While the butler was surprised, Keira left with a friendly smile on her face.
Robert: "Just take care of yourself."
He left the garden, leaving the butler still in shock.
He didn't know why, but the world looked beautiful.
Is this dating like?
She wanted to be beautiful, so she dressed up in the morning even though she had no plans to get out of the manor.
He hummed throughout his journey. Parvis' property was vast, so even if he walked for a long time, he wouldn't see the end.
After walking a long distance, he reached the residence of the Knights. Maybe it was because it was a weekend, but the knights wore casual clothes, played in the sun, or did not show up at all.
Keira did not want to disturb their rest, so she passed through it carefully. However, some people still noticed his presence.
"My girl?"
A perfect example is Sir Joseph, Vice-Captain.
He helped the new knights train.
Keira looked back and replied.
Keira: “Master Joseph?”
Joseph: “...so it really is you. For a while there, I thought I was wrong. Where are you going?"
Keira: “Everyone asks the same question. I won't go out.”
"That's because he's dressed for a walk."
Joseph refrained from speaking his mind.
While Keira really had no plans to go out, she actually wore clothes meant for sightseeing. He took it out after a year of keeping it in the closet.
As Joseph looked at her, he found a flower in his ear.
“…!”
He was even more surprised than before. Even if he saw her again, it was definitely a flower on his head.
Joseph: "N-Mrs .. that flower ..."
Perhaps the flower fell from the tree and landed on its head. At least, it was more likely than Lady Keira who placed the flower herself.
Keira: “Oh, this one? Isn't that pretty?”
“…”
However, the god likely did not side with him.
What a happy girl, stroking flowers in her hair.
He was very worried if the woman felt unwell.
The eyes of the knights at the crossroads slowly turned to Joseph.
"When did you go there, Vice-Captain?"
"Who is that woman? Too far to see.”
The knights briefly questioned who the beautiful woman who stood with the Vice-Captain was, and then realized that it was the woman.
And they become stiff. As the knights froze one by one, their gazes remained in one place.
“Nona Keyra? I'm right, aren't I?”
“You must have gone somewhere. Are you going for a walk?”
“Wow, there is a flower in your hair..”.
Keira smiled at them, surprising the knights even further. He took off the flower in his ear and placed it on Joseph's collar.
The same thought came to mind of everyone watching the scene.
'Miss, you are not such a character?!'
Leaving the stunned knights, Keira walked away, her hands touching the flowers she passed. He even seemed to have a slight leap in his steps.
They did not know why, but it was clear that the woman looked happy.
"Vice captain."
“…”
Joseph stared blankly at the small flower in his hand.
“S-Master?”
Joseph: “...Does anyone know about the recent change of heart of women?”
“…”
“…”
He couldn't possibly know.
Most of them had not had a small conversation since their last drinking session.
But the silence lasted for a moment.
"Did she have a boyfriend?"
“…”
“…”
The radius of 10 meters was frozen by the reckless speech of someone.
