Commoner with Infinite Magic – Chapter 324

Chapter 323: The Lavender Barony’s Change

(Ula… well, it’s not that strange, but isn’t she a little too beautiful?)

I knew that Urura Lavender was a beautiful girl with well-defined features.
I also thought that if she dressed up, she would become even cuter.
But… when I actually saw Urura perfectly dressed up, I was so shocked that I lost my words.

For Rest, Urura Lavender had the image of “not a bad girl, but a bit gloomy.”
She rarely spoke proactively, and despite her good looks, she was a downer-type beautiful girl who didn’t try to stand out.
That’s how she should have been… but the impression of Urura in front of me was the complete opposite. She had become a perfect Young Lady of Nobility, a perfect Beautiful Girl.

(In the first place, why is she dressed like this… no, maybe this is her loungewear, and she always wears clothes like this at home?)

I thought it was common to dress casually at home and dress up when going out, but is Urura different?

(Could it be that she dressed up for me… no, no, that’s not possible.)

Rest is not like those guys who get the wrong idea.
Just because a girl is wearing fancy clothes, he wouldn’t think something conceited like, “She did it for me, right?” He immediately calmed down, straightened his back, and placed his hand on his chest.

“Ah… thank you for inviting me today.”

“……Yes.”

“It’s an honor to be invited to the mansion by Baron Lavender, who is said to be the most powerful person in the eastern part of the kingdom. I would like to greet him later.”

“……”

Urura is silent.
Silently, she is staring intently at Rest’s face.

“Ah… Urura?”

“Ahem.”

Urura fell silent.
As Rest was struggling with how to respond, the Butler standing next to her cleared his throat loudly.

“Yes…?”

“Ahem, ahem! Ahem!”

When I turned my gaze, the Butler kept clearing his throat.
His eyes, looking at Rest, seemed to be saying something, and I felt like I was being urged.

“Cough, cough.”

“Cough.”

“Hmm, hmm…”

The change wasn’t just with the Butler.
Other maids and servants were coughing or making noises in their throats, silently pressuring Rest with their demands.

(It’s not like there’s a cold going around in the Lavender Barony Territory, is it?)

I finally understood what they were asking for.
Rest took a light breath and then turned to face Urura again.

“Um… Urura-san?”

“Urura.”

“Urusa…”

“Hmm.”

“Ah, um… it suits you. You look very cute today, or rather, you look cute as always.”

“……”

It was a clumsy compliment.
I would say such things to Viola and Primula, but I’m nervous because I’ve never said anything like this to Urura.

“““““Haa…”””””

A sigh escaped from those around me at the not-so-clever words.

(I’m sorry… there’s no way I could say something cheesy like that…!)

I complained in my heart, but… immediately after, I received an incredible attack.

“Cute… I’m happy.”

“Hiee…!”

Urura had a tremendous smile on her face.
Right in front of me, an incredibly beautiful girl was smiling.
Because she usually has a lack of expression, that smile had tremendous power.

(A smile from a stoic beautiful girl… the destructive power is too dangerous…!)

“Well, it’s a pass.”

“It’s a passing grade. The Young Lady’s smile is good.”

“Even though he’s a Count, he’s still a teenager. Isn’t this to be expected?”

“I actually think it’s a good sign. I heard he has multiple fiancées… but he’s so innocent and cute.”

The servants around were whispering to each other.
No, I want to say, “Don’t evaluate the guests without permission,” but… it’s barely a good sign, so should I think it’s okay?

“We have prepared tea over there. Please, this way.”

“Let’s go.”

The Butler led the way to the back room, and Urura also beckoned with a cheerful wave.

“The Lavender Barony… it’s a more pleasant place than I thought…?”

What was all the tension I had before coming here?
Rest felt like the tension was about to leave his shoulders, and he thought, “No, no,” and tightened the strings of tension again.
