Hide, Inspector General – 2

Finding out where the owner was was easy. Usually the owner is swept away by the crowd and locked up.

“Oh, Inspector General.”

“Your Excellency.”

Jeon Seung-gong, who discovered us, pretended to know us first, so he bowed his head and said hello. He had a lot of eyes to see, so he didn’t call him Carl-kun, but he called him Inspector General, but he wasn’t particularly sad.

If you’re big enough to be in this position, you’ll know that I’m close with Jeon Seung-gong. Still, isn’t it a different matter between knowing it secretly and revealing it officially?

The image that the head of the inspection department is friendly with a certain aristocrat, and the image that the actual head of the military favors someone should be avoided as much as possible.

“Ah, the inspector general is here.”

So avoid it too, this baby. The image of the prince teasing his subordinates is more serious.

Anyway, the prince turned his gaze to me following the legend and approached me with a light smile. As if you were well taken care of.

‘What is it?’

Instinctive anxiety welled up. I wondered if the crown prince’s exclusive suppressor was missing, but the crown prince was right next to the crown prince.

What is it really? No matter how much this bastard is, he’s not the kind of person who’s going to have a temper in front of the Crown Princess?

“Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

You can’t ignore the person who speaks first. As I bowed down with Marghetta, the prince tapped me on the shoulder and continued.

“Raise your head. It’s embarrassing to be the only one getting attention at a banquet for rain.”

“Isn’t it the way the main character gets attention at the end? Don’t worry too much.”

At those words, the Crown Princess next to her gave a small smile.

‘This works.’

Every time like this, I have a question. Why does this make sense?

Is an alien species the sensibility of the people of this unknown world? Or is life in the imperial palace so boring that even such trivial jokes make you happy?

Of course, this is the reason why you will never understand either side for the rest of your life.

‘I do it because I like it.’

If the superior likes it, the subordinate will play tricks hard. Wouldn’t that be social life?

“The Inspector General is right. Yes, it’s only natural that the supporting cast draws attention before the main character appears.”

The prince laughed as if he was satisfied, and the surrounding nobles also laughed along.

‘This is power.’

Even if you are old and have a lot of power, you have to laugh when the prince rings the laughter bell. That is the fate of the identity system.

Of course, I also laughed along. I belong to the identity system, too.

“It’s already fun. I hope the Inspector General will also enjoy the banquet.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

The prince turned around with a meaningful smile and a good word. The Crown Princess also greeted the Crown Prince and followed him.

‘Damn it.’

And based on my experiences so far, I couldn’t take that laugh casually.

Because he smiled like that when I was on the verge of rolling over like a dog. That bastard is not good at teabagging, and now they make fun of him with his facial expression.

‘Be quick to notice.’

Perhaps he did that knowing that the iron-blooded workers were waiting for him. To enjoy a banquet under such circumstances, would you be able to enjoy it?

I see the future. I see the prince watching from a distance as I am being robbed by Sangvis.

“Your Highness seems to care about the Inspector General.”

After the Crown Prince and his wife, Jeon Seung-gong approached with a big smile this time.

“It’s just over-divided.”

I wanted to ask where the hell did I care about it, but I held back. If you think that caring for a favorite toy rather than caring for people is not a big mistake.

“As Your Highness said, you came very well. I wish you a pleasant banquet.”

“Yes, sir. Thank you.”

As I lowered my head, Jeon Seung-gong also tapped my shoulder. It’s obviously the same touch as before, but why is it so different?

“Let’s have a good time, princess. Partners are good, but don’t forget Sangvis.”

“Yes, sir. Thank you for your advice.”

Before leaving to greet the other guests, Marghetta smiled and replied to the words of the Jeon Seung-gong with a smile.

It is troublesome to attend banquets. The reason doesn’t matter.

“It’s been a while, Inspector General.”

“Oh, Mr. Chairman. How have you been?”

If you show your face for no reason, you have to do a forced greeting relay with all kinds of people.

It doesn’t matter if it’s one or two people, but when you start greeting one or two people, other people come pouring in. To the point where I wondered if we were playing a game of notice with each other.

Of course, it is not polite to ignore the person who greets you first, and it is even less polite if you do not remember the person you are dating. It’s hard to remember who this person is when you say hello…

“This is the first time I’ve seen the Inspector General with a partner.”

Marghetta lowered her head lightly at the words of Count Bardon, the head of the Imperial Council who was calm and the imperial white like the family head.

“My name is Marghetta of the Duke of Varenti.”

“Nice to meet you. The day to see Varenti’s treasure is coming.”

At those words, Marghetta’s face turned red.

‘Treasure…’

I desperately endured the fact that I almost laughed inadvertently. That nickname that the person concerned is ashamed of is a nickname that came about because of the iron-blooded worker’s great performance.

When Marghetta was just born, the iron-blooded man, encouraged by the birth of her late daughter, went around bragging about Marghetta to his acquaintances. Already talking, already recognizing father, already turning over… Roughly those things.

The existence that the Duke loves and loves. There’s no way the quick-witted nobles would miss it. In the social world, all sorts of compliments and titles were directed at the brilliant Marghetta at the age of one, and what has survived so far is Varenti’s treasure.

“Go, thank you…”

How does it feel for a 1-year-old nickname to turn 18? Once you see Margheta, she never looks good.

The lips trembled and the words stuttered in an instant. He always tries to keep his dignity, but he can’t overcome the ancient black history.

“I’m glad the old man pretended to know.”

After seeing Marghetta’s reaction, the chairperson turned his gaze back to me and continued.

Her tone was stiff, but the corners of her mouth were raised subtly. Like a person watching a funny scene.

“It was nice to see you after a long time. I’ll see you again when I get a chance.”

“Yes. At that time, I will greet you first.”

The chairman nodded lightly and disappeared. He appears suddenly and disappears suddenly, there is no such thing as a ghost.

Still, if you look at the old man who suddenly disappeared and the corners of his mouth went up, it must be the chairman’s consideration.

My eyes went to Marghetta. Even the chairman, who was not so friendly, came out and looked at Marghetta and moved her seat.

‘Is it a characteristic of the elderly?’

In fact, could it be that my wedding has become a socialite’s content without my knowledge? Are there bets being made about when I’ll get married?

I looked around inadvertently and saw that a noble who was trying to come to me was being taken away by the chairman.

…I don’t know about social circles, but it seems to have become content among imperial whites.

“Mar. Would you like to take a break?”

I tried to ignore the bizarre sight and held Marghetta’s hand.

I haven’t been around enough to rest yet, but I was suddenly excavated with a dark history. The psychological shock won’t be small.

“Already? Hasn’t it been about an hour now?”

“Isn’t it sad when a treasure gets scratched?”

At that, Marghetta looked at me as if it were too much.

I’m sorry. The word “Treasure” Is too impressive to stop…

***

As soon as I came out to the terrace, the expression that I tried to pretend to be calm collapsed.

It’s embarrassing. I could barely resist the urge to scream.

I heard a nickname I didn’t want to remember or hear. Even to people much older than me. Besides, to the person you love more than anyone else.

‘It’s too much.’

When I let go of the knife, the knife smiled awkwardly and grabbed his hand.

‘Did you think something like this would solve the problem?’

Of course it’s unlocked. That’s why you can’t get angry and you’re doing this.

Thinking objectively, it’s just a nickname. But to me, that nickname is a heinous word that is older than my memory.

I’d rather think of it as a bit embarrassing if it’s a nickname that I got recently, but it’s a nickname I’ve been hearing since I was young, so when I hear that nickname, it reminds me of my immature childhood at the same time.

‘Father…’

The resentment of losing a place to go turned to my father. I don’t know who gave it the nickname, but it’s certain that the cause is my father.

It’s a sad banquet. At the same time as the beginning, I suffered a great psychological shock.

‘It’s okay.’

Still, it was a banquet that achieved satisfactory results. It was because he was able to show off his relationship with the sword to the chairman of the Imperial Council, not to anyone else.

Now, starting with the chairman, it will spread widely to other nobles, starting with the councilors and councilors.

Yeah, that’s it. I can accept this kind of achievement in exchange for a moment of shame. Yes…

‘…Huh?’

As I was comforting myself like that, there was a commotion at the front door in the distance.

I didn’t hear a sound, but I could see the guards guarding the main gate moving wildly. And a person standing in front of it.

‘Who are you?’

This is after the banquet has already started. How many people could be late for a banquet held for Her Highness the Crown Princess, not for anyone else, at the mansion of His Excellency Consort, no other place?

“Ah.”

Karl followed my gaze toward the front door and let out a low exclamation.

“A special guest has arrived.”

As if I could see it from this distance, Carl put his hand on my shoulder and said.

Thanks to this, the question only grew. If Carl reacts like this, he’s a high-ranking person.

‘Is anyone coming?’

No. Not to mention the royal family, the golden ball and the wise ball stay in the manor and only show their faces at New Year’s ceremonies.

The same goes for Lord Majong in the Islands. Because he is famous for only attending the New Year’s ceremony for one day. Then is it a marquis?

“Come on, let’s go in. You’re coming soon, so I should say hello.”

“Ah, yes.”

Yes, as Karl said, he’s a guest anyway, so you’ll see it. It’s a question that will be solved soon, so there’s no need to worry too much.

“Baby.”

Gee…?

As soon as I turned to go back into the banquet hall, I heard a voice behind me.

“I’m lucky to see you as soon as I arrive.”

A somewhat drowsy voice.

“Are you waiting for me?”

However, I felt a strange sense of pressure.

“Huh, then I’d be happy.”

As I carefully turned my body, which had stiffened for a moment, I saw a white-haired woman.

She is a woman who thought there was nothing to see in this place.
