MANIE Chapter 11

On the day of the garden party, it was a fine weather without clouds. At the very least for this time, the hair, that Maria took time to arrange, were tied up in a complex way with a small colored flower. As much as Maria had a very good taste for selecting dresses, she was also skilled at hairdressing and makeup. She felt sorry for not being able to make the most of her ability here.

 

 

The participating nobles gathered at the same place and the King and Bellard welcomed them at the castle gate. The figure of Bellard, who was making progress leisurely led by the hand of the King, surely had the dignity of a Queen. Her current dress was one of the most enthusiastic, with her chest loosely opened, her beauty was overflowing.

Bellard, who noticed Tinaria with her sharp eyes, grievously distorted her face for an instant, but turned it off immediately, put a smile on her red painted lips, and slowly approached her.

Tinaria held her dress and bowed deeply in a beautiful gesture like a role model.

 

“You are a new person. Are you perhaps Tinaria?”

“Yes. Nice to meet you. I come from Lidea, I am called Tinaria. Thank you very much for inviting me at today’s garden party.”

“Well, you really are as beautiful as the rumor says.”

“There is no such thing.”

“Huhu, modesty is sometimes reputed to be sarcasm. Well then, I’ll see you at the garden party.”

 

At the remark of Bellard which contained a little malice, Tinaria’s body stiffened. Accompanied by the participants, Bellard headed to the garden which was the meeting place. Tinaria was at the end of the line but someone came to greet her.

 

“Nice to meet you, I am called Clianna from the Nefert Duke house. It seemed that your face complexion looked unwell a moment ago, so I wondered if you were all right.”

“Th, thank you very much. I am fine. I am sorry for making you worry.”

 

Tinaria answered while being surprised at the concern of a young woman with rich blond hair, who was carefully polished to the fingertips, with an elegant dress decorated with pearls. She never expected that someone would worry about her in this castle.

 

“If that’s the case, it is good. I know it is a lot of work just getting married, but if there is anything I can do to help, please tell me.”

 

However, to Clianna who looked down, feeling sorry for not being able to protect someone, Tinaria raised her head in a panic.

 

“It is already sufficient just having said that. Please think more about yourself.”

 

Saying so, Clianna smiled, feeling relieved. For being able to have a conversation like this in this country, the chest of Tinaria was warm.

 

At the entrance of the garden, someone came into sight, it was Keithfalt who was approaching this way with determination. Captivated by her appearance in a formal dress, the shadow of Keithfalt lined the side of Tinaria and stopped for an instant, then quickly passed by.

 

“Oh my, your Highness, have you been waiting for me?”

 

Saying so, Clianna showed a beautiful smile and took the hand of Keithfalt.
