023. Socialite (1)

The appointment date came quickly.

There was only one problem.

The cost of social school uniforms was significant.

It was difficult to pay a fortune to go to a social circle once.

of course,

It wasn’t bad to wear Nea’s cadet uniform… .

In fact, there were also people who wore cadet uniforms in social circles.

To that extent, being a member of Nea was a great source of pride in the social world.

No wonder Nea is the best academy in the empire.

However, the problem was that Sylvia was Nea’s professor. If I wore the academy outfit for no reason, it would be difficult for Sylvia.

He said he brought a disciple to the social world… .

How are you talking?

Shall I take care of Tia?

If it’s T-IA, they should be able to lend you some school uniforms.

There are many clothing stores related to the Ergé Grand Prize in East Van alone.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

“who are you?”

“It’s me, sister Nia.”

When I opened the door, I saw Nia holding her clothes.

“You said you were going to a social event with Sylvia-sama today, right? Sylvia-sama sent me some clothes.”

The clothes sent by Master Sylvia were black suits.

“I can’t take this… .”

“Come on, don’t talk nonsense. Silvia-sama, don’t embarrass me.”

After speaking, Nia turned around like a courier.

“Nia sister! Please tell me that you will wear it well!”

Nia frowned and put her hand on the transition stone.

I returned to my room and tried on the suit Master Sylvia sent me.

and admired

Also, the man is a suit sucker.

It seemed like he could slap Kingsman three times.

When the appointment time came, Ethan met Sylvia.

The place is the plaza near the transition stone, and Ethan waited for Sylvia in front of the fountain.

“It suits you well too.”

Sylvia was wearing a black suit instead of her usual silver armor.

The outfits of the two were so similar that they looked like a couple.

It was originally purchased at the same clothing store.

The suit suited Sylvia like it was prepared from the start. The combination of silver hair and black suit added sophistication.

“Master, I will wear the suit you sent me well.”

“Ethan, call me Lynchester from now on.”

“Ah, yes, Lynchester.”

“Shall we go now?”

Ethan and Sylvia crossed the square.

Numerous eyes were on Ethan and Sylvia.

The two waited for the transfer seat.

Soon it was the turn of the two.

Lydia, the person in charge of Jeon Yi-seok, first recognized Edan at the window.

“Ah, a candidate for the brave! Where else this weekend… .”

Soon after, Lydia stopped for a moment when she saw Edan in a suit. The last time she saw Ethan was when she returned to Istvan as a beggar.

However, the Edan of today couldn’t even compare to that time.

The suit suited Edan so well that it seemed like if there was a model for a son of an aristocrat, it would be him.

“Two people in the central class.”

Soon, Lydia’s gaze turned to Edan’s back.

“ah… .”

And when his eyes met the silver-haired woman, he was at a loss for words.

‘My God, it’s so beautiful…’ . A lover?’

Lydia closed her eyes once.

A black-haired boy and a silver-haired woman.

I didn’t want to admit it, but they were such a good pair. Seeing the two of them, somehow, my heart felt empty.

“Miss Lydia.”

“Oh, yes?”

Lydia finally came to her senses at the sound of Edan calling.

“Please operate the transfer seats until the Central Class.”

“Ah, yes.”

Lydia activated the transfer stone to Central Class.

“Wait. Even the person behind you… .”

Please present your ID.

That was what Lydia would say and what she would do.

But before she could finish her words, Sylvia showed Nea her ID card. Like Nea’s students, Nea’s employees were able to use the transfer seat for free.

“ah… .”

Again Lydia was at a loss for words.

“Is it okay?”

“Yes, yes. Joe, have a good trip.”

The silver-haired woman was walking away with Ethan.

While looking around the shopping district, Lydia became strangely grumpy, as if the item she had wanted was out of stock first.

‘Eh, I’m going to have a drink after work… .’

However, it seemed that there would be no way for the two of them to come into contact.

***

The socialite party was held in the central quarter of the capital.

After entering the capital, Lynchester and I immediately got into the carriage.

I wonder if I rode the wagon for about 30 minutes.

A huge building like a palace appeared.

Numerous aristocrats in dresses and tuxedos filled the party room.

A chandelier shimmered in the center of the ceiling.

It went beyond antique to luxurious.

“Miss Lynchester. Welcome to the social scene of Centralban.”

The waiters at each table recognized Sylvia and bowed their heads.

A savory smell wafted from all kinds of sumptuous food.

Soon after, a middle-aged man with silver hair tied back greeted Sylvia. He could be called a middle-aged flower.

It was a person I knew.

The head of the Lynchester family and Sylvia’s father is one.

Beneck von Linchester.

“Sylvie. You came to this social party.”

“Sylvia von Lynchester, the head of Lynchester and meeting my father.”

Sylvia bowed her head slightly to show her respect.

“Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve been involved in the social scene. Sylvie. Please stay longer and go.”

Sylvia’s personality won’t linger in society for long, but as a Lynchester family, you’ll want your daughter to stay with society for a long time.

“But who is the child?”

Soon Benek’s gaze turned to me.

“He is my partner.”

“partner? Partner, why are you… . After living for a long time, you experience all the strange things… .”

When our eyes met, I also bowed in the same way as Sylvia.

“hello. I am Ethan, a candidate for the hero of Nadia Academy.”

“A candidate for Nadia Academy! Hee hee, what is your relationship with Sylvia?”

“He is my disciple.”

Sylvia responded in a calm tone as usual.

“student? Oh My God! disciple! Sylvie who didn’t raise a disciple… .”

Benek was astonished, as if he had known that the sun rose in the west.

“Father’s voice is too loud.”

At that, Benek smiled softly.

“Nice to meet you. Ethan.”

I shook hands with him.

At the word disciple, the eyes of socialites were strangely directed at me.

And, of course, there was a buzzing sound.

“Lady Sylvia has never had a disciple before, right?”

“Nothing. It seems that you are a very talented person to have caught the eyes of Lady Sylvia.”

“He said he was a disciple, so why is it that I can feel his dignity?”

I heard that sound all along.

“You must be hungry. Would you like to eat? Ethan-kun?”

“good. Lynchester.”

We brought our food and sat down at the table.

In the meantime, gossip continued to be heard.

They said he didn’t know Sylvia would be attending a social event today, or that she didn’t know she would bring a partner.

Sylvia approached the meal in an undisturbed manner.

It was to the point where it felt unreal.

In the midst of eating, someone came to Sylvia’s side.

“hello. Sylvia von Lynchester.”

I slowly raised my head.

The one with the red hair braided was Tia Erze.

Tia was wearing a white dress that matched her exposure. Even at a glance, I could tell that it was a top-notch dress.

“I am Tia Erze, a candidate for the hero of Nadia Academy and the daughter of the Erze family.”

“Ah, nice to meet you. Tia Erze.”

“Is it okay if I join you?”

“Of course.”

Tia lowered her head once and sat down next to her.

A question ran through my mind.

Why is Tia here?

Of course, it wasn’t unusual.

Because as a member of the Hergé family, I could participate in the social party.

“It’s nice to meet you here, Ethan.”

As if we met for the first time. Tia smiled and said hello.

To be honest, I knew that Ergé Sang-dan had a lot of connections in the social world, but I didn’t expect to meet them in this way.

“Nice to meet you, Tia Erze.”

“Miss Sylvia, actually Ethan and I are in the same class.”

“is it. Then, it must be the first half.”

Tia led the conversation with a moderate smile on her lips.

Even so, he maintained a cool look.

“What is your relationship with Ethan, Miss Sylvia?”

“It’s the priest’s liver.”

“Wow, I’m envious of all of you being your disciple.”

Sylvia put down her fork and knife.

“Are Tia and Ethan close?”

To that question, Tia and I answered at the same time.

“yet… .”

“Sure, I’m not friendly… yo. this.”

The former was my line, the latter was Tia’s line.

The atmosphere instantly became awkward.

Tia playfully glared at me.

what.

On the contrary, I was the one who was confused.

If it was T-I, I thought you would answer “not yet” due to your personality?

“Hoho, of course we are close. Ethan’s jokes are mischievous today.”

Tia opened the fan and fanned it several times.

Tia skillfully led the conversation to the point where one wondered if the Tia she had met at the academy and the Tia she had now met in the social world were actually the same person.

It almost makes me wonder if this is the narration of a freshman in the academy.

“By the way, did you know that Professor Sylvia doesn’t keep students apart?”

As if she was really curious, Tia’s question was pure.

At least on the surface it was.

However, Tia, who hadn’t called Sylvia ‘Professor’ until now, called her ‘Professor’.

It wasn’t even a rebuke to that question, but there was a question deep inside that he was giving favoritism to the students of the academy.

And the answer that came back was unexpected.

“Hey, is it fun? Tia Erze?”

“Yes?”

“Is the social world like a theatrical stage for you?”

Tia flinched at Sylvia’s cynical reaction.

She was staring at her in surprise, as if she had just heard that she was a kid.

In an instant, the atmosphere turned cold.
