Chapter 117

Episode 117:

Ellis was blank with an expression on his face that did not understand the situation.

It was as if I had never thought that I would run into him here.

“long time no see.”

“yes yes.”

Her face was red.

I hadn’t seen her for more than two months.

As the successor to the head maid, there was so much work to do that it was difficult to meet them, even though Reina divided the work.

Fortunately, Raina fell into my exclusive possession, but Ellis was different.

There was too much to do as the successor to the head maid.

‘But it’s even more difficult because she maintains her position as my exclusive maid.’

Just working as the head maid would have been overwhelming, but she was also responsible for things related to me.

The maids and butlers who work under me can all be considered to be under her jurisdiction

. “I see you are doing well. I saw that my face was shiny. “Was it that difficult when you worked under me?”

“Oh no. “That’s…”

She was embarrassed by my joke and couldn’t give me a specific answer.

I laughed at his cute reaction, which was different from when dealing with Viscount Parehan.

“It’s a joke. Why are you so nervous? “It can’t be real, right?”

“no!”

“So how have you been? “It’s been almost two months since we met.”

“yes. “I’m glad you look healthy.”

“I am always healthy. But I guess you are in charge of this banquet this time?”

Her brows furrowed at my words.

She sighed, remembering something she didn’t want to think about.

“It just so happened to be like that.”

“What is the maid doing?”

“I heard you were on vacation.”

“vacation? What a vacation at a time like this. “The maid seems to have a lot of faith in you that you will do well.”

Unlike regular maids and butlers, head maids and butlers have a leave card that allows them to take vacation.

It was a very short period of time, only being able to be used once a year and lasting only three days.

Nevertheless, it is enough to make others envious.

‘The timing is also amazing.’

Taking vacation during the most complicated time of the year.

It was amazing timing, but it also seemed like a plan to pass it on to a successor.

I don’t know if she knew it, but there was nothing she could do but criticize it.

“Do your best. Do you know anything? If you do well this time, you might get a vacation permit too.”

“That’s… I’m coveting it.”

Her eyes burned.

Rather than going on vacation, it seemed like he wanted to give the head maid a hard time.

“Reina works hard too.”

“yes!”

Reina smiled brightly and answered.

He smiled at her and turned his back.

And it hardened in place.

‘Why is that guy here…?’

A group was approaching.

A blonde man surrounded by nobles.

Blonde hair was a symbol of the Serion royal family, and the only people I invited from the royal family were the Crown Prince and Princess Daria.

In that case, the man over there should have been the crown prince. It wasn’t like that at all.

“Prince 2…”

The 2nd prince of the Kingdom of Serion was walking towards us, laughing along with the nobles.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

For a moment, I thought there was something wrong with my eyes.

It was strange that an uninvited person was here.

“So… Ah! Sir Raymond! How have you been?”

The second prince who found me came up to me with a bright smile and spoke to me.

When I first saw him, I was taken aback by his attitude as if I was meeting an old friend.

Why does it feel like déjà vu?

“yes. Nice to meet you.”

“hmm…!”

I lowered my head slightly, not too much, but just enough to not look arrogant.

Although he called me ‘Sir’, here I am Millennium, not ‘Sir’.

As Raymond Millennium, even if I were royalty, I couldn’t kneel or show servility in my home.

Was it annoying to see myself like that?

His eyebrows twitched as he looked at me.

“But what brought you here?”

“…?”

“I’m sorry, but… I don’t remember inviting Prince Lucius.”

His face hardened.

I didn’t say anything back at all. What I said was so direct that he could feel rude, depending on how he took it.

“Hmm… that is.”

“This is a place where no one can enter without an invitation. But I don’t think the prince came in without permission.”

2The prince kept his mouth shut.

As I was waiting for him to answer, the nobles next to him came forward and spoke.

“No matter how much it is Raymond. “Isn’t this too much?”

“You are the prince of a country! Be polite!”

What do these bastards mean?

When it comes to intervening, you have to look at the situation and intervene.

‘The prince and the guys below him.’

The prince was looking at their actions as if they were amazed.

“I’m fine. “Isn’t it possible to do that without knowing?”

How are you?

“I bow my head to the prince right now and ask for forgiveness!”

“The prince has a gentle temperament, so if it weren’t for you, you would have attacked him right away!”

They are sitting there playing drums and playing drums.

This guy and that guy are not able to understand the situation properly.

I know you’re excited because you’re next to the prince, but you’ll have to wait and see what happens.

It wasn’t funny to see people saying things that didn’t make sense.

“what’s the matter?”

“uh? 2 You are the prince. “Isn’t there some problem?”

People gathered, drawn by the noise.

“What are you doing!”

Seeing me not saying anything, the nobles seemed to have misunderstood something and pushed me further.

‘Oh, what should I really do with these?’

You can’t kill it just because you don’t like it.

Just when I was getting annoyed, Reina stepped forward.

“What are you doing now?”

“What are you again!”

“Where are the maids from?” “I joined in without understanding the topic!”

The nobles glared at Raina.

“You guys are really rude. Master…!”

Reina, who was trying to get angry at them, was grabbed by the shoulder and pushed back.

“young master?”

“This is not your place.”

“…sorry.”

Ellis took Reina and took a step back.

He gestured to Reina, who lowered her head, that it was okay, and looked back at the nobles.

“You look at me so harshly because I’m just listening quietly.”

“what?”

The nobles were impressed.

“Although we gathered under the name of a banquet, this is a place where only invited people can come. As someone with a millennial name, I naturally need to check whether there is an invitation or not. In the process, we also have an obligation to decide what to do with those who do not have an invitation.”

“But this person is the prince of this country…!”

“Even if it’s a prince!”

“….”

They fell silent at my strong words.

He glared at them one by one and then turned his gaze to the second prince.

“It’s no different if you’re the prince of this country. “To be here without an invitation is to ignore the millennium.”

“…!”

Their faces hardened at my last words.

The power of Millennium was that great.

So much so that even the second prince, who is in secret with the empire, trembled.

“And I was having a conversation with His Majesty Prince Lucius. What are you interfering with?”

“That…”

“Uhm…”

“I doubt you even received an invitation. “Can you check the invitation?”

“…!”

Their faces turned pale.

Looking at their reactions, it was easy to tell that they had not received an invitation.

If you didn’t receive an invitation, it means you followed the second prince.

It is unclear whether he even received an invitation.

There is no way the Count gave him an invitation, and there is no one in the Count’s family who is close to the royal family.

‘The mercenary king is a foodie so he doesn’t have authority, but his personality doesn’t mean he belongs anywhere.’

He was also annoyed by the mercenary guild he was currently in.

All things considered, I don’t think there was anyone worth giving him an invitation to.

“Ellis.”

“yes.”

“I need to check this invitation list again. Investigate thoroughly and report to the Count.”

“All right.”

Ellis stepped back and left the place with Rayna.

The complexions of the nobles went from pale to black.

“Why are you here without being invited?”

“What kind of guts are you talking about? “Aren’t you afraid of the millennium?”

“I guess I should watch The Second Prince again. “I didn’t know you were such an irresponsible person.”

The prince gritted his teeth as he heard whispering around him.

Among nobles, impressions are important.

Especially from the royal family who need their power.

While the nobles who came with him were unable to do anything, he took out a red paper invitation from his pocket and showed it to them.

“ruler. “This is the invitation you mentioned.”

“Hmm… this is real.”

Everything, including the millennium seal and the material of the paper, were real.

In fact, it made me even more curious.

Where on earth did I get this invitation?

Above all, the name of the second prince was clearly written on the invitation.

They say someone inside sent him an invitation.

“I’m sorry, but may I ask who you received this invitation from?”

“…Should I even tell you that?”

“We would appreciate your cooperation. “I really want to clear up any misunderstandings.”

“Tsk. I didn’t hang out with that guy for nothing. “Even their actions are similar.”

He muttered quietly.

In my opinion, I probably should have lowered my voice as much as possible, but unfortunately, it was audible to my auror-enhanced ears.

“Here he comes. “The person who gave me the invitation.”

Prince 2 pointed behind me.

The reactions of those who moved their eyes following his fingers were ambiguous.

“Why is he…”

“Something is strange. Is this possible?”

Who on earth is it to react like that?

As I turned my head after them, my heart felt tight in a different way.

‘Ha… somehow.’

I had no idea how he got the invitation.

The moment I went crazy with that thought, I was able to feel again how petty and mean the second prince was.

“Raymond?”

Her eyes fixed on the second prince as she looked at me, and her eyes trembled.

“Lucius…”

The princess’s voice as she called the second prince trembled severely.

It was a very violent reaction for someone who had given an invitation.

The second prince, seeing the princess like that, clicked his tongue and said.

“That guy gave it to me. “It’s done now, right?”

“The royal family gives invitations to the royal family… That’s really interesting. “There is no member of the royal family who is a millennial.”

“Raymond…”

The pale-faced princess called me anxiously.

“Why is there a problem?”

“You know. “There are so many.”

There were many problems. If you don’t know that, you should question his intellectual level.

“It is problematic that she deceived us and gave the invitation to someone else, but as someone who lives with her and knows her personality, I have doubts about the fact that she gave the invitation to the prince without our permission.”

“Are you saying I made a threat?”

“well. That’s something I don’t know. “How would I know what’s going on between you two?”

“joy. I don’t know. “He gave me an invitation and I just accepted the invitation.”

Rather than getting angry at the sight of him immediately falling for what seemed like it would put her at a disadvantage, the princess resigned, as if she was used to it.

I spoke to her with her head down.

“Daria. Lift your head up. “You are not a sinner.”

“…?”

“That’s true for regular royals. “This has nothing to do with Daria.”

She looked blankly at me while smiling softly.

“What are you doing now? “Are you trying to play a joke with me?”

“What would I have to gain by fooling around with the prince?”

“Then why is what you said different from before?”

“It’s no different. “It might have been a problem with other princes or princesses, but Daria is different.”

“what? “What nonsense is that!”

He growled, telling me not to play with words.

“Didn’t I tell you? “I don’t know if it’s Princess Daria, but Daria is different. We are accepting Daria as a member of the Millennium.”

The 2nd prince’s face became grim.
