Lilia-san was a little bewildered by the slightly different situation from usual, but she soon regained her composure and greeted Greene-san and Anne-san in a familiar manner.
Lilia-san herself is a gentle person who is, in a good way, doesn’t feel like a noble at all, but I think she’s used to parties like this because she has been to many aristocratic social gatherings such as evening parties and tea ceremonies.
The fact that I mostly see Lilia-san being flustered is probably because she ends up dealing with particularly difficult situations, so this Lilia-san, who can respond with such composure like this, might actually be her true self.
[……And so, LIlia-san. It seems like Greene-san has been yearning for the life of high society, but I don’t really know those kinds of things, so I was hoping Lilia-san could teach her about it…… No, of course, Lilia-san has your own circumstances, so it’s just if you have the spare time……]
[…………………]
[Umm? Lilia-san?]
When I cut straight to the topic related to Greene-san after the introductions were over, Lilia-san was momentarily taken aback, but then her eyes gradually began to sparkle.
She wasn’t angry or troubled, but instead seemed absurdly happy…… Eh? Why?
[I see, so that’s how it is…… Yes, of course, please leave it to me! I can’t exactly ignore Kaito-san’s request after all. I heard that Greene-san is new to parties like this, so I’m sure she has a lot of concerns…… So how about it? Throughout this party, how about going around with me? I can teach you the basics, and if you’re considering entering high society in the future, wouldn’t it be beneficial?]
[T- That would be more than I could hope for, but would you be alright with it, Your Excellency Duchess Lilia?]
[Yes, of course. It’s a request from none other than Kaito-san, so you can leave everything to me.]
I wonder why? She looks really cheerful, like she’s readily consenting to doing this. No, I’m rather thankful for that, as I have to go to other places to say my greetings, and I could also be relieved to have Lilia-san by Greene-san’s side.
As I was wondering about this, Luna-san, who had been nearby before I knew it, spoke with a wry smile on her lips.
[I can already somewhat guess Miyama-sama is questioning what’s going on, so let me explain. Milady had just obtained the strongest means of protection in this party.]
[Hmm?]
[Just a moment ago, she was overwhelmed by the continuous visits from the Six King Executives, and considering the possibility that more of the people on the Six Kings’ side that Milady is acquainted with might come, Milady would be quite preoccupied handling all them, so she had probably already given up on enjoying the party earlier…… but here, Milady has obtained the ultimate card that would allow her to quickly wrap up conversation even if it’s with the Six Kings themselves: “She’s guiding a civilian at the request of Miyama-sama”.]
[A- Ahhh, so that’s why she’s so happy.]
[In fact, being directly requested by Miyama-sama at this party is one of the strongest cards she could hold. Ignoring that and still trying to have a long conversation with Milady would be recognized as going against Miyama-sama’s wishes after all……]
In other words, by asking her to guide Greene-san, I was able to help Lilia-san as a result? That’s something I should be happy about, but considering that a significant portion of the reason that Lilia-san is having troubles at this party can ultimately be traced back to me, I feel like I just stirred up trouble in order to get credit for solving it.
W- Well, if Lilia-san is happy as a result, let’s call it all good.
[Well then, I’ll leave Greene-san to Lilia-san…… What about you, Anne-san? If you have someone you’d like me to introduce to, I can do that.]
[……I- In that case, umm, this might be a bold request, but could you introduce me to someone who has connections in the mining industry? ……Jewelers would be fine as well, and if possible, I would be truly grateful if you could introduce me to someone who is knowledgeable about magic crystals……]
[Ahh, I do know someone who can help you with that.]
If we’re talking about magic crystals, it has to be Tre-san. After all, she’s the Special Advisor for the Magic Crystal Division at the Seditch Magic Tools Trading Company, and with her personality, she’s someone I can easily introduce Anne-san to.
[Afterword]
Serious-senpai: [This is that, isn’t it? Anne’s assumption would be that she’ll just be introduced to the Head of a small to medium-sized company like Akane, right? Is she gonna be alright? The Head of the Magic Crystal Division of the world’s largest trading company is gonna appear……]
