25-Episode 25: Lithia




 When I heard the report of Lysia's arrival, I hurried out of the mansion and went to the gate to meet her.

 There was a blonde girl at the gate, accompanied by a few butlers and maids.

 The girl looked at me as I rushed over, smiled, and

I'm Lysia Plaid, a pleasure to meet you.

 He bowed his head neatly and greeted me.
 His graceful gestures gave me the impression that he had been raised well.

 I also returned the greeting while introducing myself.

 I look at Lisia again.

 She is short.
 At about ten years of age, girls and boys have the same growth or the female grows faster, but she's just a year younger than me, and she's shorter than me. I'm not a tall person by any means.

 I'm a beautiful girl with a calm, ladylike face.
 Her eyes are droopy. Her skin is white. Her body shape is naturally undeveloped because she is a child.
 From the previous information that she likes flowers, I had imagined her to be a kind-hearted girl. At least her appearance was as I had imagined.

 I decided to appraise her as well, just to see. Lisia is a forgiving wife and not a vassal, so she doesn't have to be so excellent, but it's not necessary for her to be excellent.

 Lysia Plaid, 10 years old, va*in*.

 What's this status...?

 The high politics is outstanding. Wisdom is high, but it's hazy compared to the height in politics.
 

 Politics is a vaguely difficult ability to understand what happens when you're high.
 It's hard to know how high your political skills will be if you're a good communicator, a good negotiator, a good coordinator, and a good policy-maker.

 That and a high level of ambition are funny.
 80........why is it so high?
 Does this girl want to be a great lord's wife?

 If anything, the calm and gentle manner of my first impressions changed a hundred and eighty degrees just by doing an appraisal and looking at the status.

 She's still smiling and smiling, but it's possible that she's not smiling naturally, but rather she's doing it out of calculation to make a good impression on the other person. There is no doubt that he is a good person, but I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for the Loebent family.
 Well, is it possible that his political power is higher because he can do it naturally and not by calculation? Maybe it's not a good idea to think about it too much.

''Um........is there something on my face?

 He was so surprised by the appraisal results that he couldn't help but stare at Lysia's face.
 Trying to figure out how to fake it.

'I'm sure he was admiring your beautiful face, Lady Lycia!

 The maid behind me said that.

 If the scene was the scene, it was a statement that could be taken as insensitive, but on this occasion it was saved.

'That's right. I saw that you had a nice smile on your face.'

 He took advantage of the maid's statement and complimented Lisia.
 It was a racy statement that didn't suit her, but no woman would probably feel bad about being praised.

''Well, I'm embarrassed...''

 Lycia's cheeks flushed a little and she was embarrassed.
 It was a very natural reaction and I don't think it was an act.

''Well then, let me show you to the mansion.
Yes, thank you for your help.

 I start walking towards the mansion and Lysia walks beside me. The maids and stewards walk about five steps behind us.

'Llanberg is a wonderful place, isn't it?'

 Lycia cut in on that.
 'I can't tell if she's flattered or serious.

'Really?'
Yes, it's rich in nature and the village is vibrant. My home town of Torbequista is a great place, but it's even better than that.

 He doesn't seem to be lying.
 I was expecting to be disillusioned because it's a rural, empty land, but was I worrying too much?

What's the Tolbequista like?
'It's as rich in nature as this one. ' 'Like here, nature is abundant and the people are kind. However, they lack courage and are not very active in battle. I hear that the soldiers under Master Raven's command are very brave and active on the battlefield, and I envy them for that.

 This is how we walked, talking to each other.
 From the gate to the mansion, if we walked normally, it would take less than a minute, but because we were talking and stopping in the middle, it took quite a while.

 She is a very good conversationalist.
 I'm not a very communicative type of person, so she's probably the reason why we're talking so well.

 I would be somewhat nervous about meeting my forgiveness wife for the first time, but I don't see that at all.
 She's good at getting me to listen to what I have to say, and she's also good at telling a story of her own origin and conclusion.
 His reactions don't seem fake, and he seems to be honestly surprised or laughing.
 He is also able to make people feel better by frequently praising them.

 We've only met for about five minutes, but we're completely at ease with each other.

 If I was just a mere child with no knowledge of my previous life, and if I didn't have any more appraisal skills, I might have been easily caged in the last five minutes.

 If this was all done by calculation, then Lycia, a terrifying child.......

 Even the high political Rietz isn't a good conversationalist so far.
 I don't think she's bad at it, but I never thought she was good enough to jump out of the way.

 Surprisingly, either his comic skills have nothing to do with politics, or he's making up for it with other abilities.

 We walked slowly, but we arrived at the mansion.
 Miramisu flowers were in full bloom around it.

You'll find a lot of beautiful miramis in bloom. Could it be for me?
'Yes, you said in your letter that you liked it. Do you like it?

 Lysia looked at the Miramis blooming in the garden and muttered, "It's beautiful...

I know how hard this must have been for you. Thank you, sir. I'm quite impressed.

 Lysia's cheeks turned red as she gave a carefree smile.

 Seeing that smile, she remembered that in her previous life, she had wanted a daughter like this.

 No, it wouldn't be a good idea to have such paternal-like feelings for his forgiveness wife.

 Getting married in the future would mean that they would have to have the companionship of a man and a woman.
 When that happens, I feel like I'm going to feel terribly guilty. Well, she'll probably be fine then, because she's grown up.

'How can I help you?'

 This time I seemed to be staring at Lysia's smile, and I couldn't help but stare at her.

 Normally, I would have said it was nothing and shook my head, but thanks to the maid I had just seen, I had grown up.

''I was just admiring Lisia-sama's beautiful smile.
Well Master Ars is really good at that.

 And Lysia's face was red with embarrassment again.

 A really racy man might say something like, "More beautiful than the flowers of Miramis," but I couldn't say that because I would have died of embarrassment if I said it.

 Then I walked into the mansion with Lisia.
