"Nebula, you memorized it for me. From now on, your identity is the third lady of the De La Parucci family, one of the five major families of the Holy Land. Phinea. Don't say anything that shouldn't be said, just stay quietly and honestly next to Your Majesty. After entering the palace of Ariant, Nanhart spoke carefully to the nebula.

Nebula nodded earnestly to indicate that he understood, and just as Shinas, Oz, and Nebula entered the palace on foot and headed towards the tea party, Nanhart, Ikaert, and dozens of knights of the Order followed Nebula into the palace.

"Wait! Why were you able to come in? Aren't the only people who can attend the tea party held by Princess Aleda? Nebula asked Hart's nose in confusion.

Nanhart curled the corners of his mouth slightly, chuckled and said to Nebula, "What stupid things are you talking about?" For the safety of Her Majesty, of course, we must also enter the palace. I just told you that only women can participate in the tea party, and I didn't say that no one else can enter the palace!? ”

Nebula was dumbfounded, if Nebula didn't know that he had been thoroughly tricked by South Hart now, then Nebula's IQ must have something wrong with it.

"Uncle Nanhart, no! Big Brother Nanhart, I was wrong! I'm really wrong, just let me go!! Nebula tugged at Nanhart's cloak and pleaded.

Since he knew that even a man could enter the palace to protect Shinas, what did Nebula do to pretend to be a little girl? To attend that tea party that doesn't seem fun at all?

Nanhart explained to Nebula in a deep voice, "It's too late, I've already handed over the list of people from our holy place who will attend the Arida Tea Party at the gate of the palace to the palace steward. Don't be so frustrated! Aren't you satisfied with being able to drink tea with a bunch of beautiful big sisters? After saying that, Nanhart patted Nebula's little head lightly as if comforting, and then entered the palace first to prepare to start deploying defensive forces.

Nebula's inner world instantly turned into black clouds, thunder, and heavy rain

It would be nice to have tea with beautiful sisters like Shinas, but the thought of having tea with Areda who looks like a fat chicken but thinks she is a swan makes Nebula feel the urge to turn around and leave.

Why were you so stupid in the first place? I actually listened to Nanhart's nonsense, and if I noticed that if I attended the tea party, I would have to drink tea with Areda at that time, and I might still take the initiative to ask to participate in that tea party?

"That's right! It seems that there is one more requirement to attend the tea party!? Participants will have to give Areda a tea leaf to participate! And I didn't prepare any tea!! Nebula spoke to Oz and Xinas as if grasping at the last glimmer of hope.

Shinas shook his head at Nebula and said, "The tea leaves have already been handed over to the palace steward along with the list, and they were prepared by Nanhart in advance. ”

"Haha~~~ Don't be so reluctant! Drinking tea once in a while is also good for your health, so stay by my side and let's protect His Majesty Shinas together!" Oz said as he kneading Nebula's cheeks with both hands, smiling at Nebula.

In this regard, what can Nebula do but accept his fate

★?????????????????? ★

The tea party soon began, and under the shade of the big trees, dozens of women who loved the tea ceremony began to gather in large and small circles and began to discuss and taste tea with each other.

There are a total of seven people in the circle of Shinas, Oz and Nebula, except for Nebula, Shinas and Oz, the other four are: Ariada, the princess of Ariante; the female minister in charge of the palace tea plantation - Suna; an old woman named Marina, who is said to have been practicing this for more than thirty years; There is also a red-haired beauty who calls herself Hitla, who seems to be the daughter of a big tea merchant and usually likes to drink tea the most.

"Miss Phinea! Miss Phinea, it's your turn! Suna, the palace minister, began to urge Nebula in a soft and impatient voice.

As if he hadn't heard anything, Nebula continued to observe the colorful butterfly that lingered on the lawn.

Seeing Nebula's absent-minded and half-hearted appearance, Shinas directly reached behind his back with his hand and pinched Nebula's waist beside him.

"Ah~~~~" Nebula, who was suddenly "attacked", snorted softly and stood up violently.

Aleeda, who was sipping tea, saw Nebula's actions and asked Nebula curiously, "Oh~~~ It seems that the third lady of Delapalucci is very confident in the tea she brought!?" The English black tea brought by His Majesty Shinas and the oolong tea brought by Captain Oz, I have tasted it carefully, I don't know what kind of tea you brought? Phinea, don't let the mourning family down~~~~"

After hearing this, no matter how stupid Xingyun was, he knew that it was his turn to introduce the tea he brought to the tea friends.

As for Suna's repeated reminders, alas! There's no way, I'm not really a Phinea, and I can't react at all when I read the name Phinea.

Xinas's hard pinch must have been just to keep himself focused, right!?

As a result, he was so frightened that he stood up suddenly, which attracted the attention of everyone in the circle, and it seemed that even Adea had great expectations for the tea she brought.

"Miss Phinea, please take the tea you have brought from the large plate in the center, brew it in seven equal parts, and divide it among the others." Suna, the female minister in charge of the tea garden in the palace, once again explained the process to Xingyun in detail, probably because this "young lady" is relatively young!

Nebula opened the small white tea bag and poured a small amount into each of the seven teacups.

Then hold the kettle in hand, gently pour boiling water into the teacup, and then stir the tea in the teacup with a small silver stick.

This is!!

In addition to Sinas and Nebula, the other five tea guests were all surprised to see the tea brewed by Nebula, this tea was actually white!!

Suna, Arida, Oz, Hitla, and Marina were all curious about the white tea, and they couldn't wait to see the teacup handed over by Nebula and began to taste it carefully.

After tasting it, their expressions were so strange that even when they looked at Nebula, they looked like they were looking at aliens.

This time it was Aleeda's turn to sit still, she stood up and asked Nebula softly, "Delapalucci. Miss Phinea, how exactly is this sweet and sour tea made? It's the first time I've seen such a refreshing tea in the world. ”

Looking at the terrifying face that Areda was getting closer and closer, Nebula was so frightened that she took a few steps back and sat back on the silk cloth on the lawn.

Faced with Aleda's question, Nebula could only bite the bullet and whisper, "This is the grain tea I bought from a villager in Fairy Tale Village"

In fact, the grain tea was purchased by Sinast, compared to Qicheng's pork skewers and Qinan's buckwheat konjac, Shinas preferred Xiaoxing's grain tea, and Sinas bought a total of about 100 servings of grain tea, and at this tea party, Sinas only took out a small part of it.

"I didn't expect such delicious tea in such a small village. It doesn't look like the countryside is useless! After getting the information she wanted, Areda did not embarrass Nebula, but after calling a maid and giving instructions, the tea tasting activity of this small circle began again

★?????????????????? ★

Two hours later, the intermission of the tea party arrived—

"Your Majesty, have you noticed? The woman named Hitla! In the shade of a hidden tree, Oz whispered to Shinas about the targets she had noticed.

Shinas nodded to Oz and said, "I noticed, there must be something hidden in this person of Hitla!" I couldn't detect her energy fluctuations at all, as if she were a normal person. But her demeanor is not at all in line with ordinary people, and she is not good at tea tasting, so she must have quietly mixed in. ”

"And, her long, wavy, slender red hair! There is also the new name of Hitla, which is formed by adding a random word in the middle. There's a good chance she's Sheila, one of the Dark Mage Legions!! Oz was extremely bold in stating her reasoning.

Shinas could not refute Oz's reasoning, because Hitra was too suspicious to suspect her.

Now that he knew who Sheila was, Oz kept an eye on her in his spare time, watching her every move.

Compared to the tension on the side of Sinus and Oz, the Nebula side is much more relaxed.

As soon as the intermission time came, Nebula immediately ran away, and the various rules, sitting postures, and mannerisms at the tea party made Nebula feel like he was being shackled in N layers, which was too uncomfortable.

So as soon as he rested, Nebula ran far away and took a beautiful nap in the fragrant flowers near the corridor of the palace.

Shortly after Nebula fell asleep, a blonde boy of about ten years old and a tea-haired woman of about twenty years old chased each other down the hallway.

"Your Royal Highness, please give me back my book!" The tea-haired woman with slightly dark skin crossed her hands on her hips and shouted angrily to the blonde boy.

The blonde boy grimaced at the tea-haired woman and said to the tea-haired woman, "Don't! Just don't! Sehra, didn't you say you wanted to play with me!? You're playing tricks!! With that, the boy waved the red-covered book in his hand.

"Come and get me! If you catch me, I'll give you the book back! When the blonde boy finished speaking, he pressed his index finger against one corner of the book, turning it regularly, and in a few moments the boy let the book turn around his fingertips.

Just when the boy was playing handsome, Sehra found the opportunity and rushed in front of the boy, and slapped the book on the boy's fingertip away.

And this book actually fell right next to Nebula!!

The boy, who was supposed to be paying attention to where the book had fallen, was so surprised that he couldn't even speak when he saw the nebula sleeping among the flowers.

It's so beautiful!!

In the eyes of the teenager, the blue-haired girl sleeping in the flowers is like a fairy of flowers, which makes people indulge and be intoxicated.

The boy reached out to stop Sehra, who was about to cross the railing of the corridor to get the book, but he crept closer to the blue-haired girl sleeping among the flowers

(Sure enough, I played too crazy during the day, and I couldn't concentrate at night, usually a thousand words an hour, but it took me four and a half hours to write this chapter today, I'm sorry!) ）
