The Story of a Gold Spoon in Another World 63

Chapter 63 – Coming of Age Ceremony – 5

In the name of the coming-of-age ceremony, the aristocratic social scene begins.
Nothing special. After all, it’s like a socialite debut that officially starts activities outside.
I look at the aristocrats who are looking this way with a look of astonishment.
Even if the nobles settled in the southern provinces were excluded, nobles in other regions other than the southern region could also be seen.

For the purpose of basic aristocratic education, knowledge of noble families in various provinces is shoveled in. Even now, information about the invited nobles is obtained in advance.

Most of the power in the southern region is mainly occupied by our Franz and Boring families, but there are also other smaller territorial aristocrats. Even I, who have only participated in official events with a small number of occasions, see an aristocrat who is familiar to some extent. But even excluding them…

Eastern Province, Western Province, Northern Province. And the capital’s nobility.
Although unified under the Brahms Dynasty, peace is barely maintained, but in the end, families that were at war several decades ago gathered here. They make eye contact with each other and wrap it up in laughter, but the cold tension inside them hangs over the banquet hall. Being a ruler in the southern region, called the land of abundance, means that he has overcome numerous wars to occupy the land. As the current owner of the land as the head of the family, I couldn’t show weakness.

Watching them talking to each other, I figure out who is the invited family member. Indeed, there is no family that can be said to be the center of each province. In the first place, if you usually hold a banquet like this, you have to contact me in advance, let alone a month. The fact that there are so many participants in the hastily held coming-of-age ceremony is me… Probably because we are Franz. In any case, even if there were no people from the main family, they identified the nobles of the lower families, who could be said to be their offspring.

“Sister Grace. It’s fine now.”
“… Okay. But it’s not normal yet.”

I whispered softly to my sister using the magic cutoff so they couldn’t hear. The constant firecrackers and magical energy used in the sun, as well as the twisting pain in the control, are calmed to some extent through the hand that Grace noona holds.

Grace’s older sister’s lineage is such a lineage.
The inherent magical power of sharing the burden and sharing power by sympathizing with the opponent. The family of the Marquis of Hemillion. By breaking away from the family, the unique characteristics of the lineage were halved, but the remnants are still sufficient strength.

The magic power transmitted from my sister’s hand heals my insides. My sister’s will, who entrusted me with the induction of that power, came through.
They meet each other’s eyes, and the eyes that are felt there carry a sad feeling. I held the hand that I held for the last time. As we shared each other’s body temperature, and felt the reverberation of the magical energy felt in each other’s bodies, our hands slowly dropped. I say goodbye to my older sister for the last time, and look at the eyes I feel from all directions, pretending to be calm. To be honest, I really hated being in front of people. I didn’t like the PPT presentation, but there’s no way I’ll like this. But now it seemed that it was time to stand alone.

Haha. As expected, it is the family of the golden lion! What a feat!”
“That huge sun. That’s a lot of magic.”
“… Mmm, the Franz family. After all, it is a potential that goes beyond rumors.”
“A story played out in the night sky a moment ago was a truly impressive play!”
“Can we call it a play? As for what to call it…”

From the moment I let go of the hand I was holding with Grace noona, the surroundings became noisy in an instant.
It started with a story about me and whispered to each other. And even a story about movies in the night sky.
I calmly listened to their stories in my ears, smiled and looked at them as I moved slowly, and my sister also started walking behind me.
Now is the time to greet the nobility and network, but there is an order to everything.

“Your Highness Princess Amelia. Thank you for attending my coming-of-age ceremony today.”

Although it is a foreign country, the person with the highest status in this place is Princess Amelia. She is in fact worth more for her lineage than she is for her country. She is a person who, even from the perspective of this world, she is not short of greeting first. When she greets her with her courtesy, Princess Amelia also greets her with her impeccable attitude.

“Leoric Franz. Thank you for inviting me. The play of the night sky I just saw was really beautiful.”

For this day, the beautiful princess Lena went through all the closets of the noble families in the manor, including the designers of the city, as well as the closets of Grace’s sister and her absent mother, to find a decent dress and decorate it. .

As usual, she was an expressionless and out of this world beautiful girl, but unlike usual, she was slightly flushed. The change in tone must have been because it was an official occasion. … No, but why do you usually talk comfortably with me?

“As was the case with Bollywood, I think Franz’s culture and art are really amazing.”
“It is overrated. It’s because Franz’s artist worked hard.”

Anyway, we greet each other as if we were seeing each other for the first time.
The gaze looking at me and the princess is sharp. Princess Amelia also feels the gaze, but she is talking to me calmly.

“I heard about Leoric-sama investing in art. The story of investing in a lot of music and theater, starting with Bollywood, is impressive.”
Haha. It’s just a hobby.”

In fact, it’s a suspicious scene no matter who sees it. Franz and Barheun Kingdom had no great exchanges, but it was strange that the royal family suddenly appeared. It is also suspicious that the Franz family, which originally did not have a coming-of-age ceremony, suddenly held a coming-of-age ceremony.

You can hear whispering to each other all around you. Most of them are casual chatter without a topic, but it is easy to notice that they are talking secretly when you can feel the magic in the voices they exchange.

“Then let’s talk again next time…”
“Yeah. Thank you, Leoric.”

As if something had been talked about, they left each other with rice cakes and ended the story. When our gazes crossed at the end, as we had said before, we nodded and parted in the flow of the atmosphere. And after Princess Amelia leaves her seat.

“Long time no see! Leo!”
“This is true. Thank you for accepting the urgent invitation. Miss Irina.”

The sight of them walking with sparkling eyes made it seem as if this was not a ballroom, but rather a meeting of knights. Because he walked so confidently that other nobles around him would back down without realizing it. Looking at the expression on the maid’s face as she approached, you could see how much she was suffering. Still, her familiar face seemed to relax a little.

“Are you having fun, Miss Irina?”
“Sure! Especially the night sky I just saw was really nice!”
“This is a movie prepared in a hurry, but thank you for enjoying it.”
“Movie… Okay! They call it a movie.”

Since we haven’t seen each other in a long time, we have a lot to talk about.
Unlike the time when I still had a young image, I felt like I had to treat her as a woman now that she was completely grown up.

“This time, I am also preparing for the coming-of-age ceremony. I hope you will be able to attend and make the event shine.”
“Ah, yes.”

In fact. This is the reason why I did not attend such events as the coming-of-age ceremony.
The first is that it is difficult to completely retire, unlike before, now that I made my debut in the social world with a coming-of-age ceremony. The second is that this kind of invitation comes flying.

Haha.”

A smile came out without me knowing.
It’s not something you can’t refuse, but it’s not just once or twice, it’s hard to refuse every time. If you don’t have a good reason, it’ll be good for your reputation to attend… Looking at me like that, Miss Irina smiled and said, “Don’t worry.”

“Of course, I know that it will be difficult to get out of the manor due to various circumstances.”
“Well?”
“So, by the way, Leo-sama!”

Miss Irina’s eyes twinkled as she looked up at me with her hands together. This little lady is by no means malicious, but her curiosity is so great and she is capable of what she’s doing, and when she gets involved anyway, she gets tired. I feel a little uneasy, but it’s still an official event, so it’s okay, right?

“I’m going to hold my upcoming coming-of-age ceremony in Müller. Could you please allow it? In particular, the movie that unfolded in the night sky this time was very impressive, so can Leo, who prepared it, help me shine on the stage of this coming-of-age ceremony?”
“… Whoa.”

There was no magic block, nor was it a secret message sent secretly. The nobles who were conversing with the sound of the music playing around them were also secretly listening carefully to the conversation on this side.
Those people instantly flinched and their eyes on us increased.

“How are you?”
“Hmm. Okay.”

Miss Irina smiles and waits for her answer.
No matter how unconventional she is, Irina Yang, she distinguishes between living and working, she is either a very smart, wise daughter of aristocrats.
In other words, this story was also prepared in advance by the Boring family.

If there is an important topic among the nobility right now, it may be that the royal family of Baheun appeared in the Franz estate, but what has been talked about since before that is the fight between Müller and the estate.
The story about him comes out for the first time from the person concerned.
I’ve never been instructed on this story, but… Hmm. Indeed.
I reach out and take Miss Irina’s hand and kiss her on the back of her hand.

-Side!

“To entrust me with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the jewel that is you to shine brilliantly. We will prepare to meet that expectation.”
“Oh my goodness. Thank you very much for listening to my unreasonable request, Leo. Then we will wait for that day!”

Irina, who was greeting her happily, met eyes and smiled at each other.
In the end, this conversation is like a declaration to the nobles around you.
The ongoing war would of course end with Franz’s victory, and the owner of the land was Franz’s second son, Leoric Franz.
Feeling the pressure of the eyes looking at me, I said goodbye to Miss Irina and looked at the rest of the nobles to prepare for politics.

After. Still, I have Grace noona who will support me, and Princess Amelia and Miss Irina. It wasn’t that I became friendly with them after appearing for no reason. Come on, let’s go.
