We went straight back to the institute in order to get something to copy the footage. I wanted to take some time to look around since I hadn’t been here in so long, but a message came from Castle Varchudar. Since the white knights were our guests, a banquet was being held to welcome them. A banquet for that entitled man. And I was supposed to attend.

“I’m just a kid, but I still have to go,” I grumbled as I walked back to the castle. Next to me was Bear, who would also be attending.

“It’s because House Peylon is hosting. It’s when you’re the guests that children are allowed to skip out.”

Yet being a child was the exact reason I couldn’t stay in the Mystic Forest overnight. Couldn’t I use my age as an excuse this time? Say this little girl needs to get her sleep? Maybe not. There was that whole thing about me being treated like an adult because I was an academy student. And most people had social debuts while at the academy.

“This sucks,” I groaned.

“Social relationships are often like that.”

“You don’t want to go either?”

“Of course not. People who work at magic research institutes usually don’t care for much besides their research.”

Oh, right. They call him the chief, but Bear is also a researcher himself.

“Still,” I said, “the guest of honor is that white knight. I don’t have the slightest inclination to welcome him.”

“But the gesture is still important, hollow though it may be.”

“Ugh, adults are the worst!”

“Don’t be stupid. Besides, isn’t that guy a relative of yours?”

“Yeah, but I hadn’t met him until yesterday. He’s a total stranger.”

Our chatter was interrupted by the ringing of a bell. I don’t know about other domains, but Peylon had a bell that rang long rings at every third hour starting from 3 a.m. For the other hours, it did short rings. What we had just heard was the 6 p.m. ring. Dinner at the castle was always at seven, so I didn’t have to worry about being late.

When I entered the front hall, Sheebis was there waiting for me.

“Young miss! Where in the world were you?!”

“Uhh.”

Damn. I forgot to tell her I was going to the institute.

In the royal capital, I never had to tell anyone where I was going.

“You were at the institute, weren’t you? Mr. Bear, a word, if you would! How could you hold Lera up in the institute when you knew we had guests?!”

“Huh? Was that wrong of me?”

Even Bear was intimidated by Sheebis.

“Sh-Sheebis, don’t I need to get ready?” I asked, afraid that Bear might get exterminated if I didn’t do something.

“Oh! Goodness, that’s right. We must hurry. This evening’s banquet is at the usual seven o’clock! Mr. Bear, that goes for you too.”

Preparing for a banquet took a fair bit of time. Particularly for women.

“Now, now, off to your room we go.”

“Okaaay.”

Pushed along by Sheebis, I headed to my room. The moment we arrived, I was tossed into the bath and cleaned off, then once I was all dry I put on my dress.
