It had been a long time since I engaged in social activities. Not even a banquet for another empire, just a noble's birthday party.
I can't believe I came to a place like this. I must be out of my mind.
It was boring. The trivial etiquette of the nobles, the sidelong glances. It was purely for the sake of networking. This family had occasionally served as a diplomatic bridge in the past.
Your Majesty, you're bored, aren't you?
Allen, who was standing beside him, nudged Edwin's arm with his elbow.
It's written all over your face.
...
I looked at him without a word. Then I turned my gaze out the window. A silent affirmation.
Allen chuckled and looked at Ubias Alten, the protagonist of the birthday banquet.
I heard that person is the second son.
He glanced quietly at Edwin.
Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever even seen the eldest son of the Ubias family.
They don't hold birthday parties for him, and he has no contact with social circles.
Now that he mentioned it, it seemed to be true. That man is the second son. Usually, for a family of this stature, a birthday banquet is held grandly to bolster the man who will become the head of the house.
..Right.
But I had never heard of the eldest son of this family, nor had he ever participated in a birthday banquet.
...Well, I suppose he has his reasons.
Forget it. I'm bored and I'd like to take a walk.
