Chapter 79 Getting permission to go out

Chapter 79 Getting permission to go out

As I was studying the Sergel Kingdom language alone in my room, it was almost 2:00 PM.

‘Ah… …. It’s about to start work soon.’

Whoa.

I let out a long sigh and struggled to get up from my seat.

Before leaving the room, I checked my appearance in front of a full-length mirror. I went out into the hallway and my eyes met Flora who just happened to be heading this way.

“Lady Flora? What are you doing up to here?”

“You are still in your room. I came here just in case.”

Flora smiled brightly.

Do you have something to say to me?

While I was tilting her head, Flora approached me.

A distance that is only one step away.

“Shall we go to the office together?”

She invited me with a smile in her eyes.

“No way, that’s why you came all the way here, right?”

“Right?”

“… ….”

As I looked at her with a dumbfounded expression, Flora burst into laughter.

I don’t know what happened to Flora’s laughing point…….

Still, her smile was pretty cute, so it was fun to watch.

Just like the saying goes, a rice cake that looks good is also good to eat.

…… Strange imagination is forbidden here.

“Yes. A pretty person has come this far, so I have to hang out with her.”

“You seem a little sarcastic… ….”

From noble mtl dot com

“A. I’m not that twisted person.”

When she waved her hand, Flora’s smile returned to her face.

Since we didn’t have much time left, we headed straight for the office.

“Yes. We had something to talk about as we went.”

“What is it?”

“I asked you to go out with me for the weekend.”

“Ah. You mean to go and get permission to go out?”

Flora said yes and nodded her head. Her pink hair, braided into two pigtails, danced sky-high in time with the action.

“I will tell you the reason for going out.”

“If the young lady does that, I feel comfortable and happy.”

We quickly arrived at the office.

When I went inside, Cecilia and Mulia were already seated.

“Good afternoon, Your Majesty.”

Me and Flora both bowed at the same time.

“You came just on time.”

There was a strange dissatisfaction with Cecilia’s tone. She probably thought it was because she didn’t come on time.

“I apologize, Your Majesty.”

At the same time, we turned to her and put her words of apology on her lips.

“Come earlier next time. Have a seat.”

“Come on, Your Majesty. Can I get permission to go out for the weekend before work starts?”

“… ….”

Cecilia signaled her to come to her desk with a nod of her head instead of her words.

I happened to be standing side by side with Flora, so we went to the desk together. Cecilia then frowned slightly between her brows.

“Luke. Are you planning to go out on the weekend too?”

“Yes. I have plans to go out with Lady Flora.”

“… ….”

She looked back and forth between me and Flora as Cecilia closed her lips.

It was only at the end of such a short pause that Cecilia’s mouth opened.

“I must hear the reason.”

“It’s because I have something to ask Mr. Luke to help me with.”

“What is that?”

“I have to choose a gift for my father this time, but I want to hear Luke’s opinion.”

What? Didn’t you talk to me like this?

Well, I said I had a favor, but…….

“Is that why?”

Cecilia’s question arrow flew towards me.

“Yes, I am.”

“I see… ….”

Cecilia let out a low moan.

After all, she would give permission to go out, but she seemed worried for some reason.

For me, that felt a bit odd.

Resuming trade with the Kingdom of Sergel has just put the first button on. She also said in her own words that she would proceed slowly over time.

In a word, it means that it is not a difficult situation to allow going out.

After a moment of silence, Cecilia’s words came out of her mouth.

“Yes. Both of you should use your pass.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

We quickly bowed and expressed our gratitude.

Then I quickly went back to my seat and filled out the pass.

Before Cecilia stamped Flora and I, she warned in a firm voice.

“Both of you, be careful not to get into an accident. Got it?”

“Yes!”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Only then did Cecilia stamp her permission to go out.

‘Three days left until Saturday… ….’

I think I have one reason to spend this week diligently.

That night.

Mulia had dinner with Flora at her restaurant.

“I really like the menu for dinner tonight.”

“Yes.”

Mulia studied Flora’s expression with her side of the eye.

In fact, from the moment Flora brought up her story that she was going out with Luke, it kept bothering her.

It wasn’t to the extent that I felt like I was going crazy because I was nervous.

It’s like someone poking the back of your hand with a pointed object.

“Come on, Lady Flora.”

“Why?”

From Mulia’s point of view, Flora was even more excited than usual.

The reason is probably because she most likely goes on a weekend outing with Luke.

But when she met her eyes with Flora, she didn’t have the courage to ask. Mulia, after all,

“Oh, no. Just… ….”

She blurted out.

After dinner, Mulia went straight back to her room. She sat down at her desk and let out a deep sigh.

Tried not to mind her, but she didn’t like it.

The scene of Luke and Flora standing side by side getting permission to go out, which she had seen in the office during the day, continued to linger in her mind.

If it was like before, she wouldn’t have given much thought to it.

Flora is generally friendly with everyone and has a friendly personality.

But now, Flora didn’t just see her like that.

As if…… I’d say it seems like she’s trying to develop her relationship with Luke a bit more.

However, there was something else that was difficult for Mulia to understand.

“Why am I doing this?”

Why does her chest feel stuffy?

Mulia watched as she carefully placed her hand on her own chest. She still couldn’t figure out why.

As soon as he received orders from the Marquis of Marlborough, Malek infiltrated the palace.

It wasn’t that difficult to infiltrate the imperial palace alone. Because one of his specialties was getting over fences well.

After that, he approached the maids and butlers of the imperial palace through another specialty, disguise.

Meanwhile, he was gradually able to weed out the maids who frequented the empress’s room.

There are a total of 5 maids.

‘Tia, Rafi, Helene, Marley, Mary.’

It could be said that it was not a bad result after going in and out of the imperial palace for five days.

‘If I’ve done this, I’ll have to step down.’

It was a car that I could feel the eyes watching me from three days ago. Perhaps if he had done something more suspicious here, they would have tried to capture him without hesitation.

So it was right to get out of the body at this level.

Not only for his own safety, but also to avoid being discovered that the Marquis of Marlborough was behind it.

Malek succeeded in getting out of the palace while avoiding people’s eyes as much as possible.

But he did not return to the Marquis of Marlborough right away.

He deliberately took his time wandering around different areas in order to completely separate himself from prying eyes.

‘I feel a little better now.’

On the second day after escaping from the imperial palace, Malek was able to return to the marquis’ residence.

As soon as he got back, he went straight to his office.

“You’re back at last.”

The Marquis of Marlborough looked straight at Malek, who stood in front of him.

“What are the results?”

“I have identified five maids who frequently visit Her Majesty’s room.”

“You performed as expected.”

The Marquis put on a satisfied expression.

“Where, tell me the name.”

Malek gave the maids names one by one. The Marquis had his name written on a separate piece of paper.

“Did you also find out which one of them goes in and out the most?”

“This is a maid named Tia.”

“Tiaro-kun… ….”

Marlboro circled the word ‘Tia’ with a quill.

“If I have to tell you one more thing, I have called them in order of frequency of coming in and out.”

“Well done.”

The Marquis of Marlborough nodded once.

“Finally, you haven’t been caught, have you?”

“Yes. I was very careful, and I didn’t get followed.”

“As expected of you.”

The Marquis of Marquis laughed, showing his teeth. Then he thought to himself.

It’s good that you sent the most trustworthy guy.

“Is there anything else you want me to do?”

“No. I don’t have it right now, so go back and rest.”

“Yes, Marquis.”

Malek saluted Marlboro and left the office.

“Five people found out. Also… ….”

The Marquis muttered in a low voice. Then she tapped the name Tia with her index finger.

Now that Malek had brought the information, it was time for her to step in on her own.

“Let’s see…….”

He picked up the schedule that he had left on his desk. The schedule for this week was written there.

I checked and found that the morning noble meeting was scheduled to be held at the imperial palace on the day after tomorrow.

The Marquis of Marlborough put the schedule back in place. Then, rubbing my lower jaw, I fell into trouble.

‘Should I talk to the duke first… ….’

No. When you’ve made results, it’s best to tell them.

Then he has only one thing to do that day.

After the meeting of nobles, tiara is to contact the maid.

Of course, I wasn’t going to have a conversation on the spot, but I was thinking of letting you know the meeting place through a note.

“Yes. I can do it like this.”

The Marquis of Marquis raised a corner of his mouth and laughed.
