A Mothercon No Matter The Place, But The Heroine Suddenly Appeared
“What do you mean by that? ”
“I’m very sorry, madam! But it looks like, for some reason, we couldn’t get in touch with you at all……”
Right now, I was caught in the middle of a confrontation.
However, thanks to that, my angel of a mother has become extremely mad, what should I do?
“Then, do you admit this was an oversight on your part? ”
“Yes, I am ashamed such thing came to pass… For such a blunder to fell upon the prestigious Roundhart Family, worry not, I’ll have the person in charge of contacting you fired immediately…”
“I don’t really care about that. Please handle it as you see fit. Well then…… Can Ain go inside now? After all, this was a blunder on your side.”
“Still, I very ashamed to have to decline, you see, this party was organized by the Archduke, I’m in no position to…”
“Is that so…?”
The issue here was that the head of the nobility in the country, the Archduke… Archduke Augusto stipulated that in the case of a family having several children, only one child was allowed to attend.
The reason was apparently an incident in the last presentation, when one of his grandchildren made his debut. Due to the large number of young children, many from the same family, the atmosphere in the party became restless because several of them were crying.
Therefore, it seems the Archduke decided that only one child per family would attend the presentation parties he hosted.
And such notice appears to have not reached the Roundhart family…
Since my mom was going to present me at this party, it seems like Grint asked Father if he could come along with me this time.
Father was troubled about how to respond, but there, Alma got in the way.
“How about we use this opportunity to also introduce Grint as the next successor! ? Or do you want us to just stay home without even showing our faces… Are you really going to make us go through such humiliation! ? ”
So she yelled.
At that moment I wondered what was she about, but now I’m certain of it.
This was most likely orchestrated… in order to humiliate me and mother.
I mean, there’s no way they would make such mistake towards an Earl House that is led by a famous general.
Was money involved? Or maybe she got hold of the letter before anyone in the mansion could read it… Well, not like I really care about it to be honest.
Now then, how to get out of this dilemma? On a side note, the Archduke’s garden is huge. Is it being lit up by magic or something? It has a really romantic atmosphere.
It’s hard to describe it, but it’s almost like a work of art, filled with a plethora of flowers I’ve never seen before.
“Mother.”
“Ain… I’m sorry. Can you wait a bit longer? ”
“It’s not that, Mother. I’m the one who wants you to wait… Excuse me Mr. Guard.”
“Yes… what is it? ”
Did he think I was trying to complain?
He doesn’t have to be so nervous…
“This wonderful garden of the Archduke has piqued my interest. I was wondering if I might be allowed see it instead of joining the party… would that be alright? ”
“…I’m very sorry, Ain-sama. I’ll immediately go ask about this, please wait for a moment.”
“Don’t worry, I have no hurry.”
“A… Ain.”
Mother. Please don’t show me such a sad face.
“There are so many flowers as beautiful as you, Mother, I’m sorry for wanting to see them instead of attending the important party. I’d be happy if you’re not disappointed for having such child.”
“Ain… Sorry, I’m really sorry. ”
“Why are you apologizing so much? I’m the one causing you an inconvenience.”
“Haaa… haaa… Thank you for your patience, Madam Roundhart… Ain-sama! ”
“How was it? ”
Did you really have to hurry so much to run out of breath?
Was it okay to run in a place like this? Filled with nobility?
“The Archduke said he was willing to allow you to watch as much as you’d like so long as you accepted the condition of having a guide he assigned escort you.”
“I’m thankful for that. And who would be the person guiding me? ”
For the time being, I’m a bit relieved to be able to leave this place.
Now, if only there wasn’t some guy to get in the way of mom and I!
“That’d be me.”
“…A pleasure making your acquaintance, my lady. My name is Ain Roundhart…… excuse my rudeness but, could you give me your name? ”
“S-So this is Ain…”
What came out was a gorgeous girl, probably three or four years older than me, her long and beautiful light-blue hair fluttered in the wind. For someone so unbelievable beautiful as her, let alone Rare, she probably got the Ultrarare for her future.
“I’m Krone Augusto. I’m this House’s eldest daughter. I’m the one who’ll show you around.”
Wow, I never expected the Archduke’s own eldest daughter to be our guide…
