"Your Highness, how about this dress?"
In Princess Yuriana's quarters, the maids were busy selecting dresses.
"No, the yellow dress suits Her Highness better."
"But that dress looks too childish, doesn't it?"
"What are you saying! It will suit Her Highness perfectly."
Listening to the maids' words, Yuriana carefully chose a dress.
The newly selected maids of Princess Yuriana were all young ladies from high noble families.
This was because the Emperor himself had ordered that Yuriana's maids be properly selected again.
"I'll go with this dress."
Yuriana chose the yellow dress that the Count's daughter had selected for her.
As the Count's daughter smiled proudly, the other maids glared at her with envy.
Afterward, the maids helped Yuriana change into the dress with gentle hands.
Yuriana enjoyed the maids' hands adorning her while thinking of Route's face in her mind.
Important guests were scheduled to attend this evening's banquet.
They were young men who had performed great deeds in the Mad Dragon subjugation campaign, and of course, Route was among them.
Yuriana wanted to make a good impression on Route, but she didn't want to approach him too aggressively again.
The maids had said that if a woman approaches too aggressively, men would dislike it.
'Looking at Cedric and Damian Orabeoni, that seems true.'
Her older brothers would ignore the young ladies more severely the more sweet glances the countless young ladies sent them.
That was why she paid even more attention to her adornment today.
She wanted Route to feel uneasy seeing her beautifully dressed.
She happened to hear news that two of the four young men who had made the capital buzz were planning to stay in the Imperial Palace a bit longer.
Hearing that story, her brothers said this.
"I knew those guys would do that. So the ones who fell for Yuriana are those two? Romeo and Kallix."
"Ah... I'm absolutely against it. Those guys have bad personalities and will make our Yuriana suffer. No. Not even over my dead body!"
Yuriana found her brothers' fuss simply funny and amusing.
Even if those two really did like Yuriana as her brothers said, it had nothing to do with her.
'...Because the one I like is Route.'
Just then, the maids showed her a mirror, as if her adornment was complete.
Yuriana looked at her reflection in the mirror and smiled shyly, hehe.
'It would be nice if those two really do like me... because then Route would be jealous.'
