Reincarnated Young Lady Aims to Be an AdventurerVolume 3 Chapter 53
Cecil is being helpful
ăŒ
All four of us finished choosing a base for our dresses, have them measured, and are now having the tea and sweets served by Madam Marcus. As expected, the tea and sweets are superb, with exquisite taste and aroma.
Lu is taking a nap near my feet, occasionally jerking his ears and listening to our conversations.
The table gradually became noisier as we are getting more and more excited at our girlâs talk.
âPardon the intrusion.â
Madan Marcus stood up to answer the new guest. She readily and swiftly does so.
We are a little interested in the customer that entered this luxury clothing store when there already is a âclosedâ sign before the store, and we all look towards the entrance.
There stood a maiden with a blond ringlet-curls, with a luxurious looking dress, and three women accompanying her, asking the Madam for something.
âAwesome⊠The drillsâŠâ
âSerafi, her drills are the first thing you noticed?â
Sasara-san asked in surprise.
âThe Drill Noble Lady? Alma, who is that?â
Eris-san asks Alma, who replied,
âIâm sorry. I donât know. I am not acquainted with her.â
âThen she is the Daughter of an aristocrat higher in rank than a Marquis?â
âI may be a Noble Young Lady, but Iâve never done anything fitting of thatâŠâ
Then we unexpectedly received a cold gaze from the âat least Marquisâ Daughterâsâ elegant eyes as we were enjoying our sweets!
âH-hiii, p-paron me!â
Cecil hurriedly turned to us and looked into our eyes.
I guess Marquis Barth is a central figure in the reformist faction.
âShe may be the queen in future. Is she that excellent?â
âIâve heard that her magic is <ordinary> level, and that sheâs good at wind magic.â
âHow is her relationship with His Highness? Do you know?â
âWellâŠâ
ââââCecil!ââââ
âA high-class magician enters the school with a scholarship⊠And His Highness seems to be very interested in that female student⊠He doesnât seem to be with Isabella recentlyâŠâŠâ
Ma-Maribel is here!
No way! A day when Cecil is helpful actually came!
âHave you ever met the scholarship student?â
âSe-Serafiona-sama, I canât just talk⊠Yes. At a tea party organised by His Highness!â
âAlma! Itâs not that! What I meant to say was that I didnât particularly have any impression of her! Iâve already met my Goddesses, whom I had always longed for⊠Anyway, I will be at most a knight or a commander in future. I understand that I am not strong, and the house will be succeeded by Eldest Brother. But that will not affect my heart at allâŠâ
âThat is to say?â
âI want to be trampled down by you all. I want you all to mess me up. Such feelings do not arise with the other girl! Sasara-sama, I donât belittle the commoners! If you are angry, please please punish me! Kick me! Hit me on my head!â
âââââŠâŠâŠâŠââââ
Why does he especially remember that?
Is that possible? After he was in direct contact with Maribelle?
This may beâŠ
ăBecause of your heel drop?ă
Lu is stunned. When our eyes meet, he desperately hides his head behind the legs of the chair Iâm sitting on!
Did the heel drop damage his brain and <forced compulsion> no longer worked?
This is something that needs to be verified at once, right?
ăSera, wait, please wait. WAIT! STOP! Letâs talk with Isaac first! If your heel drop damaged my brain too much, whoâs going to protect you in the meantime!?ă
âLu, it isnât all that bad to be an M!â
ăNo⊠ButâŠă
-patan- Madam Marcus is back.
âHow was it?â
âOh, sheâs a Marquisâ Daughter, And she wanted a new dress for her school party. âThereâs someone I canât afford to lose to, even if you say your reservations are completely booked out and canât accept it,â she said. Thatâs some really terrifying determinationâŠâ
ââŠâŠâŠâŠâ
âHis Highness⊠Is sinful.â
Eris-san shakes her head.
âIâm glad to be a <no magic>. Iâm grateful to my grandfather for kicking me out of the nobility.â
To Isabella-san, who indirectly saved many people⊠I wonder if I can return the favour somehow.
âMadam Marcus, can you leave this to me?â
ăŒ
âNice to meet you, my name is Fio, the lead designer here. Ojou-sama, Iâm sorry, this time, I canât accept your request.â(TN: I will use Ojou-sama for Isabella and Young Lady for sera)
âBut please, accept it! Iâll pay twice or even three times more! I have to wear something better than that woman and get His Highness back!â
âItâs not a matter of money. The seamstresses are overwhelmingly few. I know that is inexcusable. I apologise. However, I will prepare an original design for you here, it will be a dress just for you. Wonât it be the only dress of itâs kind in the world then? How about it?â
âAn original design?â
âYes. I also designed the monotone series.â
âOh dearâŠâŠâ
âAn original design just for you, Ojou-sama.â
âOh dearâŠâŠâ
âOjou-sama, donât compete with pinks and frills! Ojou-sama has a gorgeous face, weâll reduce the prominence of your dress so that your face stands out! The puffed sleeves are of no use! Letâs go with a dark-blue clear line!â
âBut, isnât that seedy-looking?â
âItâs not seedy, itâs neat. It will already be good just because Ojou-sama is the one wearing it! And boldly slit the skirt hereâŠ!â
âKyaaâ!â
âMadam Marcus, please cover the slit with laces. Itâs called chirarizumu.â(TN: chirari â fleeting / a glimpse of. Chirarizumu is like when one can see a flash/glimpse of the sensual parts of a woman.)
âChirarizumu! Great! Ojou-sama, this will definitely start a new trend once again! Ojou-sama is at the forefront of the era! Oh, Fio-sama is greatâŠâ
âR-really?â
âPearl is the best jewelry. Do you have a good one?â
âEh, yesâŠâŠâ
âFor your makeup, the foundation should be light, and your eyes should be a soft beige.â
âOh dearâŠâŠâ
ââŠâŠâŠâ
ââŠâŠâ

âThank you very much, Serafiona-sama! We are very satisfied today. Please return home safely.â
âSerafi is amazing, youâre just like a Magical Grandmother.â
âAah⊠Serafiona-sama is not only strong, but also very versatile⊠Such broad-mindedness to show such affection for Isabella-sama⊠Haa! It must be reported to the SerAl General Assembly! Noted! Noted!â
Isabella-san with a decent make-up and her drills will be a very good-looking Ojou-sama. Her magic isnât too powerful and wouldnât be brought to war. She wonât be called a âmurdererâ like me⊠I want to believe that.
I⊠am trying to be happy at the expense of someoneâs misery.
Forgive me⊠Isabella-sanâŠ
ăŒ
T/N: I like Isabella. I hope she has her happy ending.
Stay safe everyone.
