[31st Consort Candidate] Ch 19 – Sabrina, the cunning Duke’s daughter

Feria escaped from the shameful nature of the situation.

After running some time, she stops. Her heart is appealing to continue running at full speed. However, Feria had self-control. She had turned back and bowed.


Another wooden box was waiting for Feria at the return to her house. Zod is standing confused with a small wooden box.

“I received this from the 15th candidate’s maid. She was asked by Marquis Buccini to give this to Feria. I refused, but she was half-crying, so I received it at the end. “

Kate hit Pokan and Zod’s head. That’s a sister’s job.

Feria instructed Zod to place the wooden box on the tea table and had Kate open it.

“… it’s a handkerchief.”

There were about five handkerchiefs carefully folded in a small wooden box.

“I would like to thank Marquis Buccini for sending this apology. There’s a card here… It says… For failing Feria at the tea ceremony.”

Feria closed the lid of the wooden box.

“I don’t think it’s correct to give a gift to Mimily for this. I’ll write to Marquis Buccini, so please Kate? Can you go to the king? Zod, you report to Bins.”

Feria winked. Kate said, “Yes, that’s right. It’s a good decision. “

In other words, the aim is to plan a meeting for the King and Marquis Buccini and give them the opportunity to apologize. In addition, by telling King Macron that Marquis Buccini has apologized and thanked Feria in advance, Macron bad feelings will soften a little, seeing that Marquis Buccini has moved quickly to deal with his daughter mischief. Knowing that, the gift of Marquis Buccini to Feria is justified by passing through King Macron. A formal apology and thanks in answer… King Macron will allow it.

Feria is going to do it. Kate replied that it was a good decision. Kate thinks that Feria’s agile and thoughtful judgment is worthy of a crown princess standing beside King Macron.


Well, at that time. While Feria was debating about the wooden box, King Macron was also confronting Bins about a delivered item.

“… from the Marquis daughter”

It was a letter from Mimily? She has been declined an audience and asked to leave. When he checked, the one sending the letter to King Macron was the princess in reality. Macron has a bad feeling about the letter. He opened the slide.

Macron’s face was glaring at first, but gradually created a fearless smile.

“Bins, hurry and send messengers. I will accept this request.”

This is the request of a king’s daughter. That high-spirited, unstoppable princess had asked a favor for Feria. The request pleased Macron.

“This princess will leave the competition, but I will publicly offer to remain as an etiquette instructor for lady Feria.”

She would like for Feria to receive a princess education as a proof of friendship between our families. But this will be confidential. On the face of the public, she is just being nice.

“With the public presence of a high-ranking candidate, it will keep all the fussy people who neglect Miss Feria for her status away, until nine months later, when she is officially selected. Please make full use of my existence. I’ll also use it to approach Miss Feria. The actual objective is education, pretending to be just friendship. For lady Feria, princess education is a must.

Let me be Feria’s shield. My family will exist as a sword for her.

I have already written a letter to my mother’s home country. By accepting this secret life, I can make outstanding contributions to other countries. It will be my family’s honor. She will have all the education a princess has, and it will be an equal based exchange of mutual benefit.

If you accept my request, please prepare a messenger. “


“After all, the daughter of the Marquis was an empty minded child. She was just an idiot that couldn’t be used.”

A candidate is surrounded by maids and her whole body is being polished. She looks elegant and neat.

“It’s really ridiculous for the Marquis family to aim for the queen seat. You all think so, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. There is Sabrina who is more worthy of being the queen.”

In response to the maid, the eleventh candidate, Sabrina, daughter of a Duke, laughed gracefully and elegantly.

“A fool who can’t even get rid of country bugs can’t be a queen.”

It is this candidate, Sabrina who is the lead candidate for crown princess.

“No matter how beloved, it’s a country bug without a back shield. So it’s impossible for her.”

Sabrina, who said so, grabbed the tea leaves on the table and dropped them in the trash. High quality tea leaves.

“I don’t need anything that can’t be used. The only thing I can do with an idiot is disposing of it!”

Her eyes stare at the Queen’s seat. This lady, like the Marquis daughter, has always been getting what she wants. However, not as a selfish spoiled infant like the young lady of the marquis family, but as a daughter who has kept things she wants in her hands by cunning means. She has the power to do so. And she has always been doing things in the shadows so that others are not chosen.

“Let’s receive the baptism of the shrine.”

The elegant smile was distorted.


Knights are visiting Feria’s house as usual. To eat breakfast, work in the fields, take a nap, cultivate a keen spirit and head to the palace. It is the usual landscape. However, today’s usual landscape is cracked.

“What is this!”

An unseen woman shouted at the gate of Feria’s house. It was Sabrina.

“While it is possible for you to be selected as queen, how can you be torturing several knights like this!”

The maid shouted with wide open eyes. Then, a secretary appears.

“Oh yeah! I have to report it to the king! I’m a very important person of the shrine. Please knights! Refrain from staying at the 31st candidate’s house!”

There is no logic in this situation.

Feria, Kate, and the knights just stare at the strange woman.

“You’re being unfaithful! Unfaithful to the king! Having so many young men here! And you also torture them!”

The secretary ran out crying out loud. The maid ran behind her crying.

“Sabrina asked me to call lady Feria for some tea, but I saw it… Such a slut! Even though she’s a candidate to be crown princess… She was with so many men in her house! And torturing them too! The king cherished her and she was being unfaithful! Sabrina-sama has the duty of informing him, because she’s an important person… I suppose… he’ll cancel her candidacy…”

Feria turned white at first after hearing the accusations, but as some time passed she began to think about this situation. She tried listening to the end, but lost interest after seeing that it was only some ridiculous people acting funny and she returned to normal.

“Hey, everyone! Eat it fast. We don’t have time. Hurry. If your nap time decreases, you won’t have endurance to take care of the candidates’ tantrums. Do your best!”

Completely ignoring the woman squatting at the gate, Feria sent her daily words about the routine. The knights glanced at the maid as if seeing an idiot and returned to their daily routines. Kate is looking forward to seeing the secretary coming back from informing the king, and is looking forward to it with a happy expression.

“…”

The maid doesn’t know what to do anymore and became impatient.

“That is it! The king is here!”

The appearance of the two who all have been waiting for. One is the secretary and the other is King Macron. Macron has a happy face. He’s glad to have an excuse he could use to see Feria outside of the 31st day. He was happy to be able to meet for two consecutive days.

“Good morning, Miss Feria”

Ignoring the squatting woman, Macron heads for Feria.

“Good morning, Macron.”

Feria, like Macron, looks at Macron with a happy face. In that smile, the knights convinced stared at them.

“King……”

The secretary loses momentum. Macron thanks the knights for their hard labor. With a hand on Feria’s waist, he is calling out to the knights.

“You endured the long five months well. Feria’s tea is delicious, it’s a thank-you tea for everyone.”

“Miss Feria, thanks for your care. “

The knights react first to Macron’s improvisation.

“We’re honored to be the first ones to try the best tea that later the king has chosen!”

Zod raised his voice.

The woman’s complexion suddenly changes.

“And the secretary. What was it for?”

Macron asks the secretary. That kind of smile is not scary. The secretary pursed her shoulders and drooped with a pale face.

“You did a good job, secretary, because you let me meet her on a different day.”

The secretary, in a small voice, said, “Thanks king for your benevolence.”

“And who is this woman? What are you doing knights? There’s a suspicious person, catch her!”

“Ahhhhhhh! No! No! I’m Sabrina’s maid. I’m here to invite lady Feria to tea.”

The woman, turned paler than the secretary, and was desperately mending the situation, unlike when she was crying.

“I’m sorry. I came here to disturb lady Feria for a tea ceremony invitation from lady Sabrina. I’m sorry.”

“She came, to try the tea the king chose in the tea ceremony, as to later prepare it for lady Sabrina’s tea ceremony. She came to taste it together with the knights, not?”

The maid nods many times at Feria’s words. Then she left Feria’s house like a rabbit. The secretary bowed down, saying, “I’m sorry.”

Feria House is as usual. The only difference is the presence of Macron. He smiles at Feria … a happy sight.
