Novadine himself was almost taken by both arms and led away, but he shook them off and walked out indignantly.

The most difficult person to deal with was his daughter, Keira. As one would expect, it was impossible to carry the daughter on one’s shoulders, and the knights were bewildered in the face of her unruly behavior.

However, Mina walked up right in front of her and stared at the daughter expressionlessly at close range.

Then she wrapped her arms around her and lifted her up.

Mina carried Keira, who looked as if she was in a daze, and pushed her into the Novadine family’s carriage.

It was a brilliant move.

With a face as if nothing had happened, Mina was now making tea for Ekaterina.

“…Young Lady, at least for the time being, you should only drink tea that I have brewed.”

“Oh, why so?”

Ekaterina nodded her head, and Mina pouted.

“There was tea for the Young Lady, but someone secretly replaced the tea leaves with damp ones.”

“Oh my.”

Ekaterina chuckled.

“I bet that someone is too scared of Big Brother to do something directly, so they wanted to use me to get rid of their sorrows.”

“I won’t let them do that to you.”

“My, thank you, Mina.”

Although it was petty harassment, I was able to smile because I could trust that Mina would protect me.

“Mina is wonderful. Thanks to Mina, I can sleep peacefully and drink good tea.”

Ekaterina smiled, and Mina, who was normally expressionless, raised the edges of her lips to form a smile.

Although she could have breakfast in her room if she wanted, Ekaterina still went to the dining room. She was sure that Alexei would be there.

Because they usually live in dormitories at the school, they rarely see each other in the morning. However, the morning after a weekend stay at the Imperial Duke’s residence, they would always have breakfast together. So, Big Brother must be planning to do the same!

During the trip from the Imperial Capital to the Ducal Palace, they were together not only for meals, but for the entire trip….

Ekaterina thought that this and that were two different things. She didn’t know exactly what she was talking about, but apparently there was no logic to a brocon.

Ekaterina, who was strolling down the long corridor with Mina close behind, looked out the window when she heard a sound.

Then her eyes widened.

The dining room, which she had rarely visited when she was a shut-in, was just as she had pictured a nobleman’s mansion dining room to be, with gilded decorations, paintings on the walls, and chairs lined up at a long table.

“Good morning, Ekaterina.”

“Good morning, Big Brother.”

Alexei showed up a little late, and they ate breakfast at the end of a long table, facing each other.

Ekaterina stopped to look at Alexei’s light blue hair, which was a bit disheveled. I love it like this! And yes, it’s probably that.

“I see you’ve been doing your morning workout.”

“Oh. I had hand-to-hand combat with the knights, and it took more time than I wanted.

“I saw you through the window in the hallway. But it wasn’t the knights guarding the perimeter.”

Ekaterina said mischievously, and Alexei smiled.

“Would you like a closer look?”

“Yes!”

“Well, then, I’ll bring them over to you…Yurinova’s hounds may not be as good as Kruimov’s beast horses, but they are well-known among those in the know.”

Ekaterina was thus accompanied by Alexei to the kennels at the Yurinova Castle.
