The Lady Wants To Rest

Chapter 28

At the same time, she was like a pure angel who had come down from the sky, she was also beautiful like a rose whose aroma was sensual and seductive in nature. She did not fall short of the description of a woman whose beauty could bring down nations.

This was especially true when she wore a dress that complimented her features rather than her usual, comfortable, outdoor clothes. Her beauty was like a million blooming flowers.

“But why did milady suddenly wear this dress?”

“Because it has a purpose in earning money.”

At my words, Marie’s eyes grew round.

“A-are you trying to do something bad? Y-you can’t!”

What was she thinking with that small head?

I flicked her forehead and said.

“Let’s go.”

When I exited the dormitory, the campus was filled with blooming spring flowers.

Students, excited for their future life at the Academy, were conversing with each other here and there.

‘How fresh. It’s a good time.’

I looked at them before starting to walk.

In any case, I wasn’t interested in a successful Academy life. Let’s just go earn some money.

‘As much as possible, such that we won’t have to worry too much about money.’

But it was just then.

As I was about to leave the campus when I heard a sound that made me stop in my hurried steps.

Slap!

“……!”

It was the sound of a slap out of nowhere.

Soon, a sharp voice resounded through the area.

“Just what are you doing! Can’t you properly apologize?!”

“I, I’m sorry.”

“In any case, whoever said that you weren’t from a common, lowly background. Tsk.”

The high-pitched scream that didn’t fit the gorgeous campus drew the gazes of all the people, including myself.

Nineteen, twenty? The neatly-dressed girl was shouting angrily at another girl about her age.

‘An aristocrat and a commoner?’

I frowned.

Just from their appearances, the raging girl was clearly an aristocrat, and the other girl who was hanging her head was a commoner.

‘It’s not like it’s anything new.’

I thought indifferently.

Entry to Renault Academy was based entirely on an individual’s ability, so people of all different hierarchical statuses, from royals to commoners, attended the school.

However, just because they attended the same classes didn’t mean that they were of equal status. There was, without a doubt, a clear difference in social status and authority.

Aristocrats belonged with other aristocrats, commoners with other commoners, and it was very common for aristocrats to harass commoners.

‘Let’s go on our way since we’re busy.’

With that thought, I turned my head, but yet another sharp sound resounded through the campus.

Slap!

The aristocratic lady had let another slap fly.

“Is that a proper apology? Is that how your household taught you? No, you don’t have anything like a household, right?”

“……!”

The commoner girl’s face flushed and her eyes filled with tears. However, she was unable to say anything and lowered her head.

Marie gripped the edge of her clothes and then shifted to and fro on her feet.

“Milady, what should we do?”

Just then, the aristocratic girl said something that crossed the bottom line of my tolerance.

“Lowly things should keep a humble attitude. If you’re sincerely sorry, kneel and beg for my forgiveness.”

The girl’s face grew pale.

“T-that….”

“Now!”

Though everyone’s faces grew dark at the scene, no one stood up for the girl. It was unfortunate, but no one wanted to become enemies with an aristocrat.

Marie watched the commoner girl, whose eyes were filled with tears. Marie, who had been criticized repeatedly at the Roxanne Grand Duchy, felt empathetic towards the other girl.

“What are you doing? Let’s go. We’re busy.”

I pulled at Marie along.

Marie hesitated, then lowered her head.

“…Okay, milady. Let’s go.”

Marie’s voice died almost like a mouse that is as dead as a doornail.

“That… Milady, you can’t help her, can you?”

“That commoner?”

“Yes.”

I asked emotionlessly.
