The Saint's Magic Power Is Omnipotent (WN) Chapter 27

As per usual, Ladies' Day.

Today however, was different from usual.

"Is it your day off?"

"Yes."

I told Marie-san that I had no dance lesson today.

Did the teacher have urgent business to attend to?

I thought it was strange and a maid brought a letter to me on top of a tray.

Marie-san took the tray from the maid and presented it to me.

"Instead, an a.s.signment has been a.s.signed to you by the manner's lecturer."

Marie-san said. I took the envelope from her and looked at the back.

"An a.s.signment?"

The envelope was sealed with wax and there was a crest on it.

It was a family crest from somewhere, but which family was it?

I felt like I've seen this crest somewhere before.

I learnt all the crests of important aristocrat families in cla.s.s.

The crest being familiar meant that it was one of those families.

It wasn't the royal family.

I obviously remembered the royal crest.

I couldn't remember which family it was straight away so I decided to read the contents of the letter first.

Marie-san opened the seal and gave me the letter contained inside.

I read the contents of the letter and it seems that I've been invited to a tea party.

It was held today in the afternoon.

It was held in…… The Royal Palace?!

It must be an invitation from someone in high power since they were having it at the Royal Palace.

Who the heck is it?

I tried to confirm the name of the sender while pondering but noticed that they didn't write it.

This meant that I had to derive this fact from the crest?

That family crest was from……

"Sei-sama, would you like to wear this dress today?"

I was startled because someone suddenly called out to me.

I was too absent-minded.

I looked at the dress that the maid presented to me and thought about what to do.

"I was invited to a tea party this afternoon."

"Oh my! You should wear a more gorgeous dress today then."

"What? Hey!"

It appears that Marie-san didn't know the contents of the a.s.signment.

Then after stopping me, she quickly started ordering the maids around.

They prepared an outfit more glamorous than the ones I usually wore while picking this and that.

The things they picked were several times more gorgeous than what I normally wore.

I looked at the maids who were having more fun than usual and didn't have the heart to stop them.

It can't be helped.

Let's think about which family this belonged to while the maids are psyched about picking outfits.

Which family was it?

"Is something wrong?"

Marie-san looked at me worriedly because I was scrunching up my eyebrows while thinking.

"I was thinking about who the sender was. They didn't write their name on the envelope."

I said and gave the envelope and letter to Marie-san.

Marie-san looked at the envelope crest after reading the letter.

"The name of the sender really isn't written anywhere."

"Is the a.s.signment to find out who the sender is from the invitation?"

"Maybe but isn't the a.s.signment also to attend the tea party?"

Certainly.

Marie-san was quite right.

I also learnt the mannerism for tea ceremonies and thought that it would be possible for me to attend one because we had finished the lessons on that topic.

The sender was still unknown. If part of the a.s.signment was to find out who the sender was then there was a high possibility that Marie-san won't tell me which house they are from even if I ask her about it.

But, I'll try to ask anyways.

"I have a feeling I've seen this family crest somewhere before but I can't seem to remember where from. Marie-san, so you know which family it is?"

"Well, it's a very famous family. It's Marquis Ashley's family crest."

She surprisingly answered my question.

I should have remembered this crest because there wasn't many Marquis Households to begin with but I had completely forgotten about it.

But did I know someone from that household?

"If it's from Marquis Ashley's household then the person who invited you is probably their daughter."

"Really?"

"Yes. Their daughter is also Prince Kyle's fiancée."

What?

Prince Kyle as in that Prince Kyle, right?

The Crown Prince.

I see, so even that has a fiancée, huh?

The people of this kingdom became adults at 15, so he was more or less the Prince.

It wasn't odd that he had a fiancée.

It was rare for this to happen in j.a.pan but it wasn't unusual here.

But is his fiancée someone who could host a tea party at the Royal Palace?

Normally people couldn't host tea parties at the Royal Palace even if they were engaged to the royal family.

Was she already living in the Royal Palace with the Prince?

"Is his fiancée living in the Royal Palace?"

"No. She normally lives in Marquis Ashley's estate in the capital."

"She doesn't live at the Royal Palace but she's hosting the tea party at there?"

"This is because it's Sei-sama's a.s.signment."

Marie-san was trying to say that the reason the tea party was being hosted at the Royal Palace this time around was because it was connected to me.

Perhaps Marquis Ashley's daughter also heard this from the teacher.

That's right.

I handed the invitation to Marie-san because it was my a.s.signment but we didn't know if the host knew the situation or not.

So the tea party this time might not be that big.

When I saw that the party was held at the Royal Palace, I panicked wondering how big it would be.

Even if someone tells me that it's alright for me to attend, I didn't want my first tea party to be a big one.

I was a little relieved.

My hair and makeup was finished while I was talking to Marie-san and the preparations are done.

I looked at myself in the mirror and could tell that the maids had put more effort into my hair and makeup.

The maids had a look of accomplishment on their faces.

It really doesn't look like me.

The me in the mirror was laughing tiredly.

"Do you like it?"

"You all did an amazing job."

The maids were happy at my words. I guess it'll do.

Then I headed to my morning lecture.
