Chapter 2: Will a Honeymoon Stir the Pot?

I had been preparing to lock myself up in my room until the culprit behind the explosion had been caught. As a result, Parfeil had been coming and going from my room to bring me food, tea, and books.

“Parfeil, I’m sorry about all this,” I said.

“Milady, please pay me no mind! We can’t afford to let too many people in here while there’s a threat to your safety!”

Parfeil was a former adventurer and mercenary, so her combat abilities were on par with the royal knights tasked with guarding the Dragon Duke. Even if she were to be attacked for being my attendant, she’d be more than able to strike back.

On the other hand, I wanted to avoid getting Madeleine into trouble, so I had asked her to stay home until we left for our trip.

Today, I was packing the things I needed for the journey. Merchants only went to Diamant once every three days, and they had to transform into dragons to head to the nearest town to buy goods. This trip made them add delivery fees to their wares, driving up their prices. All this meant that I had to know what I needed to bring with me—I wanted to avoid buying from merchants as much as I could.

Parfeil was folding linens into shockingly compact sizes and packing them into my luggage. This must have been something she’d learned as an adventurer. I watched her put her skills to work. She was also directing the white squirrels to bring my belongings into the room. I just wished the squirrels wouldn’t wave my underwear around like a banner, though...

“Packing sure takes a lot of focus!” Parfeil exclaimed.

“Everything you’re doing looks like magic to me,” I said.

Parfeil had been getting objects that I never thought would fit into my bag. I thought that it wouldn’t even close, but with a few hops from the squirrels, my luggage was sealed shut. I applauded their marvelous work.

“Parfeil, that was amazing! The squirrels were fantastic too!”

Parfeil let out an embarrassed laugh. “Thank you for the compliment, milady! I didn’t think my skills as an adventurer would come in handy here!”

“Me neither!”

I decided I should reward Parfeil and the white squirrels for their hard work. I gave the squirrels some acorns I had picked up from the garden. They were so happy they started dancing, though I wondered where they picked up such dances in the first place. It was a complete mystery.

For Parfeil, I gave her some high-quality chocolates. My mom had given them to me a few days earlier and had told me to bring them out when Lady Opera came to visit.

“Wow! These are expensive chocolates from a really good shop! Is it okay for me to take these, milady?”

I leaned close to Parfeil and whispered a secret to her. “It’s okay, you can have them. I was told to give these to Lady Opera, but she told me last night that she was trying to lose weight.
