The Fake Princess's Soul Contract Duke

Chapter 28: The Forgotten Events

By the time the day had begun to fall, Alianora had returned to Nauchwanstein Castle carrying two medium-sized boxes containing two pairs of training uniforms.

Not unexpectedly, if the price of clothes in Boutique Miah is not too expensive. True said Mary, the clothes are of good quality, and can be purchased by ordinary people and nobles. As a result, Alianora did not need to hold back, and immediately bought two pairs, to be worn alternately later during the exercise. Even so, the money in his pocket was still left around 3000s sol.

3000 Sols, if he managed to obtain that beautiful sword he had just seen, it was possible that now he would leave nothing in his pocket, either, but in exchange for that beautiful sword he could take home. Perhaps he could also use it against that Eathen brat later if he were to meet him again in the training area.

Oh, he would be so proud if he could have such a good sword.

But unfortunately, due to the disrespectful boy whose origins are unclear, Alianora so lost the opportunity to get the sword. There was only one sword like that, Alianora did not even know when the same item would be there again.

Just because of the money, he lost. Because of such worldly goods?

It feels like Alianora's self-esteem is trampled on.

Hah, it felt like he was eager to curse that one brat.

As Alianora was about to enter her room, she faintly heard the voices of the servants downstairs who opened the door for someone.

Curious, Alianora approached the stairs to see who was coming, but to her surprise, it was only Estelle, who entered while spreading her smile.

Just like Alianora, Estelle also wore a long dark coat, but she was escorted by her two personal servants as well as one bodyguard carrying several boxes of various sizes.

"Miss, am I taking this straight to your room?"

Estelle nodded.

"Yes, please yes, Sir Ivan."

Estelle was about to climb the stairs but her eyes accidentally met Alianora's eyes.

Both of their eyes were equally wide, but Estelle, like a sweet sister, immediately waved her hand at Alianora.

"Sister!"

Seeing that, Alianora could only give up. She wanted him to not linger there and go straight to the room to change clothes, but he had to go back to serve Estelle.

"Hi, Elle."

alianora replied with a smile.

When Estelle was standing right in front of Alianora, she immediately saw Alianora from head to toe, and clenched her hands together.

"Well, brother ran out from the outside too huh? Where did you come from, brother?"

"Oh, I'm out of the market, out for a walk, if you're Elle?"

"I was out of Artemis, to buy some new dresses and some accessories."

Elle said that while pointing to her bodyguards and two servants.

Oho, of course Artemis Boutique. Of course that place.

Alianora glanced at them, the two maids, whom Alianora already knew, threw away their faces, while the bodyguard looked at Alianora arrogantly.

"Hm, so."

"Oh yeah, sister is out to buy dress-dress too right? But why don't I see brother in Artemis."

That's because Kalisto, your selfless father, didn't give me a lot of pocket money, miss.

"I'm not out to buy a dress, Elle. Just buy some comfy house clothes."

'A comfortable suit for sword practice at home', of course he didn't just lie right?

"Eh, house clothes, hm..sister lack of house clothes?"

Then, behind Estelle, the male bodyguard who had been staring at Alianora unhappily, snorted with a mocking smile.

"Miss Estelle, since Miss Thalia has lived here, Miss Thalia has never bought a dress from Artemis Boutique, so it's no wonder you haven't seen Miss Thalia there."

The two servants next to the bodyguards instantly snapped simultaneously and they increasingly threw their faces away, Alianora could see that both of their hands were slightly trembling when holding Estelle's grocery box.

Is he that scary now? 

Though, Alianora did not plan to make a mess of them in front of Estelle, but they were already scared first.

Seeing Alianora who did not react at all, the bodyguard would add his chatter but was immediately intercepted by Estelle.

"Sir Ivan, you can't talk that way about my brother. Brother did choose to look simple, didn't he?"

Although this was actually a rebuke, but since Estelle said it in a cute tone, it instead sounded not serious. The bodyguard simply apologized, in his modesty, and no longer spoke but still chuckled.

Like them, mocking me indirectly, hm.

Alianora simply replied to Estelle with a smile.

"Eh, but, sister didn't buy any dresses at all?"

"Well, why Elle?"

"Sister don't know? That next week is Prince Roberto's birthday."

Alianora's eyes immediately rounded.

Prince Roberto's birthday?

.

.

.

This was because he was already too absorbed with the path of destiny that began to change from previous lives. He forgot that there are some points that will never change, one of which is this birthday event.

Birthday of the first prince of the 13th empire.

But is there anything important that will happen in this event later?

Alianora still doesn't remember.

"Ah, yes I almost forgot, thanks for reminding me Elle."

Estelle nodded but her face was still worried.

"But did you prepare the dress?"

"Hm, no, it looks like I'm going to wear the dress that's in my closet."

As the bodyguards behind Estelle laughed, the two maids only clenched their lips together to keep from making a sound.

As for Estelle, her face still looked worried but faintly, Alianora could see that one end of her lips was raised slightly.

"Ah, hm, actually if you want so also does not matter, but this is an event held by the royal family kak. All eyes will see our family, so at least we should look good!"

Hearing Estelle's words, the bodyguard continued to chuckle without caring if Alianora could hear her voice clearly. Estelle also acted like she heard nothing.

"What if you just borrow my shirt, huh? I still have a lot of nice clothes in the closet, you can grab what you like."

Alianora looked at Estelle, then at the bodyguard who sneered at her, as well as at the two maids who kept avoiding her gaze. A smile was still embedded in his face, but his two eyes were not smiling at all.

These people before him had truly gone too far. He was so speechless.

No, it's not that he's getting carried away by emotions, well he's an emotion now, but that's not the main thing.

He was amazed how these sweet-sounding words, could be more piercing than the blade of a sword.

At the very least, the sword blade only gave physical scratches, which would no longer hurt if given medicine, or healing magic. But if the wound in the heart caused by these words, could it be removed?

Thalia, who heard these words constantly by word of mouth, was probably too stupid to understand the whole meaning, but at least part of the meaning she understood. The proof, she grew up to be such a timid and insecure woman.

It was fortunate that now the one in his body right now was Alianora. Such words had no effect on him.

With Estelle's offer that was like insulting him she managed to reject it smoothly.

"No, thank you. I was already known as a simple princess, so it was better, I should appear as simple as others expected."

At least that's enough.

Now, for Prince Roberto's birthday, Alianora doesn't know what to prepare.

In her previous life, Thalia had never attended Prince Roberto's birthday.

That was because, Thalia at that time did not dare to go to such public places, she was also banned by Kalisto because of the stamp of troublemakers. Is useless.

Now, however, it seemed like Alianora had to attend this event, and that made her a little wary.

But, hopefully, there is nothing strange that makes him have to think a lot.

He just wanted to sit there and eat delicious food, and then go home if he could.

Oh yeah, he also hoped that he might be able to see a little bit of Prince Noah there.

Surely, for such an event, he presents? I hope that.

Suddenly, Mary knocks on Alianora's bedroom door.

"Excuse me, Miss?"

"Yes, what's up Mary?"

"Mr and Madam, are waiting for you to have dinner in the dining room."

Alianora. Waiting for him? What else is it?

"Well, I'll be there soon."

After changing clothes, Alianora with Mary, left for the dining room.

If the two of them wanted to meet like this with him, there was certainly something important to discuss.

Whether it's telling him to do something, or interrogating him about something.

Certainly not a sincere thing.

If it's a normal day, where might they want to invite him to dinner together, if not Alianora who just entered without permission.

When the dining room door opened for Alianora, she saw Kalisto, Annabeth, and Estelle were already sitting down to eat in their seats as usual. Alianora with an indifferent acuj, chose a seat next to Kalisto.

When the food was served, they still did not speak.

They just had casual conversations, mostly with Estelle, and as usual, ignored her. But when the servants left, Kalisto began to speak.

"Next week, there will be Prince Roberto's 13th birthday, do you know?"
