(Drop) Criminals Aiming To Live Peacefully

Chapter 13

CHAPTER 13

My name is Thomas Alby. I am a Viscount and because of my middle noble status, I know the high nobles and the ones at the base of the pyramid.

A few days ago all the kingdoms were shocked by the news we got in the morning. The Royal Household and the Duke's Household who entered into an engagement contract between announced that this contract was now void. I'm sure when everyone reads the news, their only thought is: WTH?

Of course I heard rumors about the Prince's lover but like the other nobles, I thought it was just summer love or something. I mean, you can't have anything better than a community flower, okay? He has this nickname for a reason.

You might say that I am biased because I do not know the Prince's lover, but the truth is I know Lady Julia because I know her father, she said, finally I helped their families to reunite and eat with them.

And unlike Lady Julia who is ugly or rude. He's actually very funny and pure. Like a white rabbit, I guess?

The problem is that rabbits are not Queen material.

Besides she was just an illegitimate daughter, even if the Crown Prince didn't mind, the old geezer must have done it.

Furthermore, he had no merit in any society, whether noble or ordinary. While Lady Cecile is famous in both, in one she is called an angel or goddess and in the other she is called the flower of society. That he changed it is kind of a mystery to me.

But, it turns out that Lady Julia has a lot of applicants at the Royal Academy. Maybe the taste of children now is different from my time. Well, whatever it is, it looks like I can't change the Prince's choice.

In essence, because of this shocking news some nobles started to gain insecurity. Some people doubt that a Prince who would prioritize his personal affairs in something that befalls the country might not be the best choice, however, while others have close ties with the Prime Minister and Lady Cecile and are offended by His Majesty's choice. The result was that some people started building the 2nd Prince Faction, even without the support of the 2nd Prince.

And in the midst of this chaos, all the noble factions received an invitation from the person we all consider to be suffering. In the letter he politely invited us to come to his tea room which will be open two days from now.

Whatwhat the fuck? Shouldn't you be suffering and depressed because of your engagement? What is a tea room ?!

Maybe I'm really old, I can't get these kids.

But, since the one invited was a flower, I quickly confirmed my presence. I hope he shows to all the public that even without a prince he is still the most noble and beautiful of all flowers.

. . .

And now I'm on my way to Temone. I actually knew the homeowner before, and had even visited before. I remember it being a little flashy and tacky, I hope Lady Cecile redesigned the place.

When I left the carriage and entered the house, I was shocked by the changes that had occurred. Were it not for the large Temone inscribed on the gate and the number of familiar faces, I would have thought that I was in the wrong place. When I got lost admiring the place, I heard a cold but soothing voice

“Halo Viscount Alby, I am Cecile Dubois, daughter of Duke Dubois, happy to meet you. I'm truly honored that you could come to my humble opening, if you can follow this man, he'll explain our facilities and guide you towards the space of your choice. I hope later we have time to chat “

Haa. . now I believe the Crown Prince is blind. Beautiful, educated, gentle and capable. What more do you want from a woman? Even a woman, but someone, if my son had half of his composure, I would die happy. I think I just met the person I was supposed to be.

“The pleasure is mine Lady Cecile, I must say that the changes you made to this place are amazing. I hope we can talk later. Since I know you may be busy now, I will take my leave ”

” Thanks for your praise, Viscount. Abraham, can you drive him? ”

“Sure Miss. Over here, Mr.”

Giving me a sign to follow him, the young man wearing the black suit looked perfect. He had a kind of noble aura that was lacking even some nobles. Is this the shop clerk? Maybe I should send my own son to study under Lady Cecile. I wonder if he'll take it.

“Lord, we have room for nobles, one for noble women, one for all nobles, one for commoners and one for everyone. We also have outdoor tables and private rooms, but private rooms exclusive to IP members Do you have any questions, Sir? ”

Of course I did! Although I know the meaning of each word I don't understand when you put it together.

“Explain to me the difference between the rooms”

“Well, most of them are the details. The color palette of each room changes and the literature in each room is different. Something like cigars and embroidery needles exclusive to some rooms but can be taken if requested.”

“Sastra? Do you have a book to read in this place for free, even for commoners? Also can I go to the ordinary room or the noble lady room and vice versa? ”

Forgive my confusion, but expensive books in the kingdom. Even my home, I only have 100 books collected for generations. Ordinary people could sometimes even die without touching it. And now he is telling me that they have a collection that you can access for free?

“Yes, each room has all kinds of literature, but we emphasize on 3 types of literature for each room that we deduce through our research to be a favorite topic/genre in the target community of the room. And about your second question, yes everyone can be free room in all rooms other than private ones.This part is only made because we think people will feel more comfortable around the person they are used to ”

Lady Cecile was truly something from another world. It is true that people will feel uncomfortable in unfamiliar surroundings and feel more open with people they know. But it's amazing not to limit anyone to the rules of that society. If you want, you can . Simple as that .
