Opening an orphanage in another world

_________________________________________________

[At the Rock and Sea dungeon]

[Naoto point of view]

The wave keeps on hitting the main road, with the breeze and smell of salt, we keep going into the main road. It's a short dungeon which is usually full of aquatic life, but the recent mysterious decline of the monster activities got everyone worried, like the calm before a storm

Together with Mrs Aries here, the two of us walk together, having no common topic left to discuss, silence come, but amidst all of that, I keep on noticing something. She really loves the necklace with that photo, she had been touching it every so often, so much so that it actually become a distraction for me.

(Well, it's isn't something that I should bother with, but...) [Naoto]

If she keeps on doing that, she might get distracted. Is there anything that I can do to help her?

(Maybe I should ask Mira about it, she might know what to do) [Naoto]

And not to mention, I have to deliver this letter to her, as an invitation from the Royal family of Estel, an invitation to attend the debutante party of Princess Diana

"Mrs Aries, may I have a moment?" [Naoto]

"Sure" [Aries]

"Can you spare a moment and come with me to the orphanage at Malsia?" [Naoto]

[Diana point of view]

Closing my eyes at the sofa, with the three Lara, Nara and Karon at my side, my mind begin to wander around once more. Couldn't help it as the three of them are the quietest kids around

"Did you hear?" [Noble Mob A]

"She might be a princess, but even that action is unaccounted for!" [Noble mob B]

"Guess she isn't really worth even a grain of salt" [Noble Mob C]

Ahh, this moment again. Lately, it keeps bugging me, I wonder why. If I'm not mistaken, this is around the time when I started to become rebellious. I had reached my boiling point during this time. When mother tries to vent out her anger once more, I lashed out, and I nearly stabbed her in the eye with the butter knife

As I wonder around the hall, I can see a group of church official, they must have come to meet the Second Queen, and among them, is a red hair girl. Rumia looks very cute back then as well, and now that I remember it clearly, just what makes her to have this sad and disgusting look?

"Aahh..." [Young Linda]

"She's strong" [Young Alice]

"Come, let us go for another round of court fencing" [Young Qis]

Rumia and I can't help but to look at the three of them. It's simply captivating watching them, I wonder why. As we keep on watching them, Rumia come closer to me and

~Slam~

"!" [Diana]

"Don't run!" [Ash]

"Sorry to wake you up while you're sleeping princess" [Elise]

"Let me go!" [Charlotte]

Well, they still haven't extracted out Charlotte's tooth, chasing her around and now she ended up waking me up from my sleep, so let me just hug her tightly and get the job done.

"Princess don't!" [Charlotte]

"Consider this as a punishment for waking me up <3" [Diana]

"Nooooo!!!!" [Charlotte]

~Glare~

Charlotte is still glaring at me, even at the dining table (which make Ash knock her head lightly as to remind her of table etiquette). Well, that still didn't stop her from doing it.

~Glare~

~Stop glaring~

"Haha, that's cute" [Diana]

"You mustn't encourage her like that, your highness" [Qis]

Well, when it comes to proper etiquette, Qis has been teaching not only the orphans, but also other kids as well, so she's strict when it comes to thing like this.

Truthfully, I don't really mind Charlotte doing that to me, as my only younger sibling didn't even bother interact with me. He did has a moment when he wanted to say something to me, but alas, he decided not to, even when I am the one approaching him. It's lonely in the castle even though I am surrounded by people with familial ties in there

"You guys have start eating" [Ram]

"Don't worry, there's more of it" [Claude]

"The smell of tea really is great" [Ram's son]

"Coffee will be better" [Ram's daughter]

"And here are some sweets from us, hope you like it" [Gizzere]

"Sweets!" [Younger group]

"Finish your dinner first" [Alice]

"Ehh..." [Younger group]

"Like she said" [Ash]

"Right..." [Younger group]

"And don't give one to Charlotte, she just got her tooth extracted" [Rafiah]

"WHY!" [Charlotte]

Slowly, all the people that will be helping me as to ensure my debutante party a success gather. Ram and his family, few adventures, few local people around here, the merchants as well as some nobles like Crow. Well, not only about the Debutante party, there are also other related matter that I would like to discuss with them, both the short term and long term planning.

Looking at this warm atmosphere, where all of them interact with one another, not bothering about title and race, is truly a warm sight. Maybe that's why father didn't bother about me hanging out with them, or maybe, this is what father and I had always envisioned since that time

(Truly, what a blessing. If only Linda is here with us as well) [Diana]

"Sorry I'm late" [Samurai Jacks]

"You're the last to come" [Alice]

"Oh my, the wife is angry at the husband for coming home late" [Ash]

"Cheating, he's cheating on you" [Diana]

"I wonder who's the lady that manages to sway Mr Samurai heart here" [Lily's mother]

~Mara dramatic gasp~

"So this is adult life" [Zerolith]

"Sorry I'm late dear wife" [Samurai Jacks]

~Dramatic gasping~

"Don't play along with them!" [Alice]

"Wait, Sis Alice doesn't really sound that mad" [Liyana]

~Dramatic gasping continue~

"Let just start the meeting!" [Alice]

(Master Jacks sure looks dejected) [Rean]

"Man, at least let me tease them more" [Ash]

"Count me in as well" [Diana]

"Let just start the meeting! Now!" [Alice]

"Geez... alright alright, and Jacks, congratulation on your rank up! Now you're an A rank adventure right, one step closer for your dream of becoming S rank adventure" [Ash]

"Thank you" [Samurai Jacks]

"And also one step closer to get Alice fall in love with you" [Diana]

"Princess!" [Alice]

"Ohh, I word it wrongly, one step closer as to make Alice truly honest to her feelings" [Diana]

"I see, so Sis Alice really do love Mr Jacks" [Karon]

"Hahahaha, I am now satisfied with teasing them, let us go" [Diana]

"Yeah, we can continue teasing them afterwards" [Ash]

Once we enter the empty room, and Ash uses his silent spell, I announced my plan of making my debutante party here officially. Needless to say, those who still haven't heard of it were in disbelief
