Cain was walking down the hallway to borrow a book from his father’s study.
From the other side of the hallway, Dianna came running towards him, waving her hand and saying, ‘Brother!’ Cain crouched down and waited with his arms wide open to greet Dianna.
Normally, she would make a jump into Cain’s chest and press her forehead against his chest, but today she stopped right in front of Cain and stretched her back out in a bracing posture.
“Dianna?”
Cain tilted his head as if to say, ‘what’s wrong?’, while Dianna bowed down and smiled.
“Good day brother, Cain. My name is Dianna. It is an honor to meet you.”
Dianna lifted her skirt with her left hand, pinching the middle of her skirt with a small pinch, and posed with her right hand on her chest, leaning slightly to the left from the waist up.
This is the lady’s courtesy in this world.
When I glanced behind Dianna, I saw Silas, the teacher in charge of discipline, walking slowly towards her.
She was probably learning how to greet like a lady today. Guess she wanted to show everyone what she’s learned right away.
Cain stood up, straightened his posture, and raised his arm slightly with his right hand on his chest and his left hand with his palm facing the other person.
“Good day, Miss Dianna. My name is Cain. It is an honor to meet you. I am overwhelmed by my good fortune to see you again today. I am sure I can run three times around the world with this overflowing happiness.”
With that, he tilted his head to the left from the waist up.
They were staring at each other with clear faces, but when one of them blew out, Cain and Dianna laughed out loud.
The etiquette of the ladies of this world was a little different from that of courtesy.
They plucked their skirts and lifted them, but only on one side, and they didn’t bend their knees.
I don’t know if it was because the game developers wanted to be original, or because the illustrator drew the stills without a deep understanding of the courtesy, or because there was no specific setting in the game, but this posture was supplemented in this world.
“Your posture is beautiful, Master Cain, but your speech is too long. Keep it short.”
“Yes.”
Cain was currently absent from all of his tutoring classes, but he was still his student. Cersis pointed out the things that caught his attention.
He looked stern, but one of the good things about Cersis was that he would praise him when he deserved it.
“It’s good that you were able to keep your expression intact in front of Dianna.”
“Thank you, Mr. Cersis.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
“Good work, Dianna. You did very well. If you had kept your neck straight when you leaned back, it would have been perfect.”
“Yes!”
In a good mood after being praised by Cersis, Dianna said, “I’m going to go say hello to father!” and left the place.
Cersis was about to walk off to follow after Dianna, when he reconsidered and stopped to look at a corner of the hallway.
“‘Master Cain. You should wait until you are out of sight before you indulge in your reverie. Or train yourself to endure until you can be alone.”
With that, Cersis walked off, this time without stopping.
In the corner of the corridor where Cersis had thrown his gaze, there was Cain, cowering with his hands covering his face, crying because he was overwhelmed by the cuteness of Dianna.
At the same time, Dismaya was sinking in her office when she was greeted by Dianna, who said, ‘Nice to meet you’.
Ilvalino is combing Cain’s hair as he reads a book in his room.
Cain had started growing his hair out when he started learning magic.
It is believed that magic power is stored in the body, so the bigger the body, the better. Naturally, magic power also resides in the hair, so many wizards grow their hair long. Tirunoa, Cain’s magic teacher, also has long hair.
“It’s grown a lot.”
“There’s a saying, Hard hair, easy nails. The saying goes that hard work makes your hair grow longer and easy work makes your nails grow longer.”
“I don’t think the saying is true.”
Cain’s hair was shoulder-length, so it was still difficult to keep it in place. However, I usually pin it up because it is not good to have bangs and side hair covering my eyes and blocking my vision.
Ilvalino took out a hair clip from his pocket and showed it to Cain.
“Could I use this hairpiece to hold your hair up?”
“It’s a beautiful openwork. But isn’t this a little too girly?”
It was a small wooden hair ornament with an openwork design of ivy, stars, and moon. It has a pin on the back to hold your hair.
“It was made by Serenosta. It seems to be an application of the crafting techniques learned working as a blacksmith. He gave it to me for Cain and Dianna.”
Ilvalino took out another hair clip with flowers, rabbits, and butterflies carved into it.
“He’s very crafty.”
Cain held it in his hand, looking at it from different angles, through the sun and looking at the back, but after a while he returned it to Ilvalino’s hand.
“Hold your hair with that. I’ll put it in Dianna’s hair later and we’ll both go and show it off to mother.”
Cain and Dianna had bright golden hair that was straight, moist, and shiny.
The dark brown wooden hair clip looked plain at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it was a very detailed design.
The dark color of the hair clip stood out against their light hair color, and the cute design complemented the light hair.
A while later, Serenosta was offered a job as a live-in employee at Elyse’s favorite accessory workshop.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
