Chapter 99
A few days later.
A column appeared in the newspaper evaluating the banquet hosted by Emperor Subiteo.
It was described as the first official banquet since his coronation and as a ceremony to honor the late Emperor.
Among the invited noble families listed, Voreoti came first.
In particular, there was much talk about the watch. The wristwatch presented by Duke Voreoti received overwhelming praise as the forerunner of a new trend.
“...That’s it?”
From behind the large, unfolded newspaper, Leonia appeared.
Her usual twin pigtails were decorated with large green triangular baubles, and she wore a light pink short-sleeved shirt paired with navy shorts.
“This is seriously all there is?”
Disappointed, Leonia wiggled her bottom. The soft sofa barely budged under her movement.
“Who reads the newspaper and makes that much noise.”
From the opposite sofa, Ferio lightly admonished her.
