I was called by the messenger of Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina, and I was guided to the next room that is connected to the evening party venue by a door.
The room was just the right size to relax for a break, and it was a romantic interior based on pink and white that women would like.
Across the table, there is a long sofa that can seat four people, and tea and various sweets are lined up on the table, and the tea party is in full swing. It was like that.
On the sofa farthest from the entrance sat Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina, and His Royal Highness Herence’s wife, Princess Camilla, and Lady Monenard, His Royal Highness Corini’s fiancée, were sitting side by side on the sofa in the middle.
Queen Sefina’s hair, animal ears, and tail are all chocolate brown, and her eyes are beautiful amber.
She was a beautiful woman with a good style unique to beast people and slightly drooping eyes.
I was convinced that Prince Harence and Prince Corini looked like their father, and Prince Martis and Prince Nell looked like their mother.
“I am pleased to meet you for the first time. I’m Lilith, the wife of the third prince Gresis of the Tenar Kingdom.”
I gave a lady-like bow and greeted her.
“I’m Sefina. I’m a gray wolf beastman. I don’t mind a formal greeting. Princess Lilith, please sit here.”
Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina, sitting on the sofa, pointed to the seat next to her with her hand.
Next to Her Highness the Queen!? There is a lot of fear. But it’s more disrespectful to refuse.
“Then, please excuse me.”
After I agreed, I sat next to her.
I’m curious about how Princess Camilla and Lady Monenard feel when they stare at me.
When I sat on the sofa, Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina opened her mouth.
“I called Princess Lilith here to evacuate from that evening party.”
“Evacuation, is it?”
I wonder if there was any danger again?
“Yes, if you trade food with all the men at the evening party, you won’t be able to hold your stomach. In a little while, they will end up drinking alcohol, so only women are allowed to evacuate to a separate room and spend until midnight while having a tea party.”
Certainly, if Her Royal Highness Sefina hadn’t called me, my stomach would have burst.
“Thank you for your consideration. However, my husband is worried, so after I rest for a while, I would like to go back to the venue.”
“That won’t happen. I’ll have you stay here until midnight.”
Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina clearly rejected it and changed the topic.
“I haven’t introduced you yet. This is Camilla, Harence’s wife, and Corini’s fiancée, Monenard.”
It was my first time to participate in a women-only tea party, so I’m a little nervous.
Like a lady, I tried not to stop smiling.
“It’s an honor to meet you, Princess Camilla, Lady Monerard.”
“Me too. Both my sister and I were taken care of during the insanity disease. Thank you very much.”
I was deeply thanked by Her Royal Highness Camilla.
“You’re welcome. I’m glad you’re feeling better.”
I didn’t know they were sisters.
If you ask me, the white beast ears, tail, platinum hair and sky blue eyes are the same, and the face is similar.
However, maybe because of the makeup, the impression of the appearance was completely different.
Her Royal Highness Princess Camilla is mature, and Lady Monenard is adorable.
“Hey, what did you say to Corini at that time? Well, it’s going well. Thank you.”
Lady Monenard blushed and reported to me.
At that time, I think she’s talking about what happened after I assisted Lady Monenard with her meal at the sanatorium.
“That’s good.”
I was a little relieved, and as if she had seen that the tension had been relieved, Her Royal Highness Sefina called out to me.
“The greeting are over over. Princess Lilith, you have plenty of time, so take your time and enjoy the tea party. We are proud that our country’s sweets, tea, and fruits are exquisite.”
Apparently, I don’t think I’ll be able to go back to the night party venue until midnight.
If you can’t go back, you have to give up and have fun.
I changed my mind.
“Then, I’ll take your word for it.”
When I reached for the cookies on a nearby plate, Lady Monerard, who was sitting across from me, quickly took the whole plate. I thought so, but she picked the cookies I was going to take.
“Is this the cookie that Princess Lilith wants?”
“Eh. . . yes.”
“Yes, go ahead.”
Lady Monenard is trying to feed me.
Even at the tea party, it seems that you can’t escape from this culture.
“Well, please excuse me.”
Oh! The moment I ate it, the crispy texture was irresistible.
My face collapses involuntarily.
“There is a different taste from the Kingdom of Tenar and the Kingdom of Seiran!”
“I’m glad you’re happy.”
Lady Monernar looks satisfied.
It should be polite to give this back.
When I was about to ask Lady Monenard for her favorite sweets, Princess Camilla offered me a petit cake.
“Please, I recommend this one as well.”
It’s rude to make her wait. I have no choice but to eat this.
“Well then. I’ll take it.”
Oh my! It’s softer than I thought, and the sweetness is just right.
My face loosened softly.
“It’s very fluffy and delicious!”
“Yes, that’s right!”
Her Royal Highness Princess Camilla, who is mature, is cute and excited.
You should also ask Princess Camilla about her preferences.
I wasn’t even given the chance for that, and Her Royal Highness Sefina offered me cut fruit from the side.
“In our country, fruits are also delicious.”
There is no reason to refuse the favor of Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina, so of course I will take it.
The moment I ate it, the juice of the fruit spread in my mouth.
Wow! I held my mouth involuntarily with emotion.
“This is the first time I’ve had such a sweet and fresh fruit!”
“That’s right. It’s a fruit that our country is proud of.”
She explains with a beautiful smile.
Well, I have to ask the taste of Her Royal Highness Sefina. I thought so, but I wonder why? Everyone is already preparing for me.
“In order, it’s my turn to feed Princess Lilith.”
Lady Monenard is holding a butter cookie.
“Oh, first come, first served.”
There is an apple pie in the hand of Princess Camilla.
“Both of you, the feeling of giving up to each other is also important.”
There is a lemon cake in the hand of Queen Sefina.
They are competing to see who will feed me first.
It’s strange, aren’t the rules different?
“Um. . . I’d like to feed everyone, too.”
Everyone looked at me with shining eyes.
“””Then, please do it by all means.”””
After listening to everyone’s wishes, Princess Camilla said after that.
“I’m sorry, Princess Lilith is eating so deliciously that I just want to make you eat it again.”
Lady Monenard is nodding.
“That’s right. If you look so happy, I want to recommend more.”
Her Royal Highness Sefina laughed as if she was in trouble.
“That’s right. But then the meaning of evacuating will be gone and it will be pointless.”
I see, feeding each other has the effect of getting along like this.
Seeing everyone’s smile made me happy too.
“I thought it was embarrassing, but this culture is good. Everyone is very cute, so if anything, it’s more fun for me to eat it.”
It’s especially cute that the tail is pretending wagging.
“I’m in trouble if you say it so honestly.”
Putting her hand on the blushing Princess Camilla’s shoulder, Lady Monenard’s face is also red.
“Princess Lilith leaks her emotions easily, and it’s troublesome just because you know that it’s a genuine favor.”
“I didn’t think people would seriously think I was cute at my age.”
The cheeks of Queen Sefina, whose face I looked up at, were slightly pink.
Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina, who had a cold impression at first, was much cuter than I thought.
At first, I can’t return to the night meeting venue until midnight. I was confused when I was told that.
But the first tea party spent with only women was more fun than I thought, and before I knew it, it was midnight.
“Princess Lilith, I had a lot of fun tonight. Her Imperial Highness Princess Lilith participated in the evening party and showed her cheerful appearance. At that point, the purpose of friendship between nations was achieved. That’s why you didn’t have to force yourself to stay at the venue all the time even though you couldn’t more your arm.”
It was the first time I realized that Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina knew everything about what I was thinking, and that she cared about me and kept me at the tea party.
“I had fun too. Thank you for your consideration.”
The tea party ended after shaking hands with each of the three people.
The messenger of Her Royal Highness Queen Sefina guided me to the place where Gresis-sama was.
Gresis-sama seems to be very exhausted.
“I asked Harence. Did you enjoy the tea party?”
“Yes, I had a very good time. It’s a little disappointing that I couldn’t be with Gresis-sama though.”
“Me too. But I’m also glad that Lilith didn’t suffer this kind of torture.”
Gresis-sama is in pain while rubbing his stomach.
There were a lot of beast people lying in the evening party.
“I can’t eat and drink anymore. . .”
Everyone seems to be suffering, regardless of if it’s their own country or other countries.
Crush each other. It’s not that, it’s a consolation party. . . right?
Certainly, it was written in some book that trust is born from sharing suffering.
Could it be that it was talking about this? No way, right.
I feel a little bad for the men. . .
I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
