Today too, everyone left the parlor with the words “Shall we go to bed?” from Elvis  

Takeo, Alice, and Layla had once returned to their room but Takeo prepared the bath before heading to the kitchen to quickly make caramel.

Alice and Layla were enjoying after bath tea in the bedroom. 

Takeo had not returned from the kitchen.

“Ha…. Today will be the last day of the day off.” 

“It flew by so fast. And so many things happened.” 

“From clothes to watching the battle. It was delicious.”

“Sister Layla.”

“Really, I want to make him a nobleman just because of the dish. If I have met him before I met with William..”

“Sister… Even if you’re my sister, I won’t give him to you, you know?” 

Alice protested with stern eyes. 

“It’s too late to be saying something like that. I know that Takeo loves Alice. I envy Alice, being loved by such a person.”

“No, isn’t Sister Layla being treated well by His Highness.”

“Yes, William’s kind. During the day and at night too.” 

“Hah?”

“Bu…. It’s like something is lacking. Yes! It looks like the health note will be handy. But.. I wonder how to teach William about it.”

Layla was worried. Alice could only watch her sister in shock.

When Takeo knocked on the door, Alice replied with “Come in” so he entered the bedroom.

“Layla, Alice, I’m back.” 

“Welcome back.” 

Layla and Alice replied cheerfully. 

“Well, let’s dry your hair.” 

“Yes.”

Takeo dried both of their hair just like he did the day before. 

. .

“Okay, I’m done.” 

“Thank you for your hard work.” 

Both Layla and Alice thanked him. 

“I’m taking a bath and then going to sleep. Good night, both of you.” 

“Yes, have a good night.” 

Takeo left the bedroom. 

. .

.

Layla who showed Takeo to the door realized something. 

“Hmm? There’s a notebook on the table.” Layla put on her glasses and casually opened the notebook to have a look. 

“As expected! Takeo understands.” 

Layle nodded with a big smile on her face. 

“What is it, Sister?” 

Alice returned after refiling their tea. 

“Here.” Layla passed the notebook to Alice.

“Takeo…” Alice was disappointed when she looked inside the notebook. 

A new page was added from the day before. [Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

The title is “How a woman asks. This is how to win over men. (Own Judgement and Bias Included).”

“Ha…. How should I interpret this…”

Alice was seriously worried. She did not understand Takeo’s intention.  

“Why don’t you obediently take his request?” 

“It’s embarrassing to do exactly as I’m told!”

“Haha. Alice can continue to think about it. I need to read this carefully.” 

Leaving those words, Layla started to eagerly read the notebook.

Alice sighed as she headed to the bed when she saw her sister.

Takeo who had left Alice and Layla’s room headed towards King Azupal and William’s room with the wain in question, and under King Azupal’s suspicious eyes, Takeo said “The requested item.” as placed down the 4 bottles and left.

He left as soon as he placed down the bottles so Takeo did not know how he managed to get away from King Azupal’s with further inquiry. 

According to Layla, William had said with a wry smile “Someone created trouble for me before going to bed.”

Takeo got into the bathtub. 

“Ha…. I’m tired.”

He was in combat and then he cooked… Now only he started to relax as he soaked in the bath. 

He felt like he could just fall asleep if he let his guard down.

“My bod…. No abnormality…. Ha…. The sighs are proof that I’m mentally tired maybe?”

Takeo said “Yeah!” as he stood up and got out from the bathtub and wiped himself quickly. 

(He did drain the water properly.”

He dried his hair roughly and headed to the kitchen where he searched for the apples that arrived from the fruit store. 

“Let’s see. Should I peel them in my room? Where’s the fruit knife?”

He started looking through the shelves in the kitchen. 

When he found the knife, someone walked into the kitchen. 

“Takeo-sama?” It was Smith who had come to the kitchen. 

“Oh? Young Master Smith is also looking for a snack?” Takeo said cheerfully. 

“Haha. I’m here for water. Are those apples?”

“Yes. I was thinking of eating apples after a bath. I did buy a lot.”

“Ah, from the time with Miss Hilda and Miss Klareth, correct?”

“Yes.” 

Takeo cut the apple into 8 parts, cut off the seed and stalk, and peeled off the skin while answering. 

From one of the parts, he cut it into a rabbit and gave it to Smith.

“The bribe to keep my late-night snacking a secret.” 

“Haha. Then I’ll take it.”

Smith ate it on the spot. 

Takeo peeled the remaining apples and placed them on the plate.

He lightly washed the knife, returned it to its place on the shelves, and Smith and Takeo left the kitchen. 

. .

.

After parting with Smith, Takeo unlocked the door to his study and entered inside.
