“Wow, I’m impressed with how fast you changed your tune. Didn’t you say the dress was hard to move in and it was meaningl—mfgh!” Adel swiftly clapped a hand over Melulu’s mouth.

“What’s the matter?” Euphinia asked.

“Nothing, Princess! My heart is overflowing with gratitude!” Adel tried to kneel to express her thanks, but Euphinia stopped her.

“No, don’t do that. You’ll get your dress dirty. The way to express thanks is...like this.” The princess plucked the edges of her skirt and spread them, then curtsied. Her actions looked very natural thanks to plenty of practice, but due to her being so young, it came across as adorable rather than sophisticated. The sight left Adel feeling more thankful than ever for having been sent back in time with her eyesight restored.

“Um, so...like this?” Adel tried to mimic what she had just seen. “‘Thank you very much.’”

“Yes, that’s it. You’re a natural! Mother Superior has given me permission to teach you court etiquette, so prepare yourself for a hard time!” The determined face that Euphinia made was the epitome of cuteness. However, it was entirely doubtful whether she, being as kind and amiable she was, could actually give someone a hard time.

“Thank you, Princess! I am at your bidding!”

Euphinia giggled. “Since you’re here, would you like some tea?”

Euphinia liked books, tea, and confectionaries that went well with tea. She led her guests through shelves of books to the window wall, which had sofas and a table perfect for enjoying a cup of tea alongside a good book.

“Please allow me, Princess!”

Melulu looked at Adel with surprise. “You know how to make a cup of tea?”

“I shall demonstrate!”

During Adel’s time as Euphinia’s knight escort, he had been invited to join the princess for tea quite a few times. Through this opportunity, he had learned how to prepare tea even without sight. Naturally, it hadn’t gone well at first, but it proved to be good training for sharpening his senses. He even knew exactly how Euphinia liked her tea. Steeped until it was a little too strong, then sweetened with plenty of sugar. With newfound eyesight, it would be a piece of cake.

Euphinia sat on the sofa and took a sip, then beamed. “I love it!”

“Thank you! I’m happy it suits your taste.”

“Look at you, Adel!” Melulu laughed. “You’re not a lost cause after all!”

“Hey, I know manners! I just wasn’t used to this dress, that’s all,” Adel said confidently while also sitting on the sofa.

This made Melulu sigh. “Never mind, I take my words back. This is going to be an uphill battle.”

“It’s definitely going to need work. Mother Superior would be quite cross if she were here...”

“A thousand apologies, Princess! What am I doing wrong?”

“Wait, you don’t know?!”

“I’m asking because I don’t.”

“Aha ha ha. Melulu, tell her.”

“Yes, Princess! Adel, your legs! You’re sitting with them wide apart. Bring your knees back together. This is basic!”

Not only was Adel sitting with her legs wide open like a man, she was even leaning back and had her arm thrown out, looking very comfortable.
