Chapter 46: It’s more uncomfortable to watch others make money than I lose money
Liana and Loraviel walked down the corridor. Because of what had happened last night and this morning, Loraviel seemed a bit reserved.
However, for some reason, Her Highness Liana looked... happy?
Loraviel had thought that she was beginning to understand Liana, but now she realized that wasn't the case at all.
This morning, Liana had clearly been in a foul mood. Yet now, she was cheerful, and even her tone of speech had become noticeably gentler. It was as if she were an entirely different person from the one Loraviel had seen earlier.
Loraviel truly couldn't figure it out. In her eyes, Liana had become an enigma, wrapped in an ever-deepening veil of mystery.
The two of them arrived at Lisard Plaza. It was noticeably livelier than before—after all, Grand Princess Mepeilu had personally come to the Venus territory, bringing many nobles to gather at Venus Manor.
Since Lisard Plaza was along the main route, and everyone heading to Venus Manor would need to bring a small gift, the merchants naturally weren't going to miss out on this opportunity.
As a result, the plaza was much busier than usual, and the variety of goods had also expanded significantly.
"Liana, what are we buying?" Loraviel asked.
Liana had a clear goal in mind and walked directly toward the materials shop. "Weren’t you very interested in how 'five-spice powder' is made? Since we're out today, let’s buy the ingredients, and I’ll teach you."
"Okay." Loraviel had assumed Liana had completely forgotten about it.
"What do we need to buy?" Loraviel asked.
