19. Poor At Dancing

It has been decided that I will leave this country in three months.

It takes about three days on horse to travel from Orania to Caspar.
According to this world’s sense, it’s a distance that is neither near nor far.

Approximately one month passed since I began to receive royal training, but I had only spoken the necessary minimum with Alex.
I’m recently in a situation where I mostly need to stay in the palace and it seems like Alex does not return to the house either.

I originally did not dislike studying.
Therefore, studying the history or economy of this world is fun.
But there was one problem.

“Move your feet more smoothly. Be careful as far as the tip of your toe.”

The teacher’s encouragements are also springing in the dance lessons today.
I cannot move devastatingly.

In the first place, I think it’s unreasonable to insist on making me do motions that draw out feminine charm.
The teacher’s irritation is also increasing every day at my poor progress, and I apologized to the apprentice who’s accompanying me in practice.

One day, the teacher made a certain proposal.

“I asked a certain someone to be your partner today. He is near Haruto-sama’s age and is accustomed to high society, so he will be able to lead with composure.”

Surprisingly, the person intoduced as such and came into the room was Urie.

“It’s been a while, Haruto. I’ve been thinking I haven’t come across you in the garden recently, it seems like a serious thing has happened. If it’s something I can do, allow me to cooperate.”

Urie says so while smiling but I’m absolutely sure he finds this amusing.
The way the corners of his mouth rise is unnatural.

“Well then, your hand please. With this, being a ‘young lady’ is no longer a joke, right?”

I delivered a knee kick to Urie who wasn’t able to endure it and finally laughed.

***

I started practicing with Urie and my dance came to shape at last.

“I have something to discuss with you today, Haruto.”

Urie spoke at the end of the practice.

“Actually, I will be delivering the magic potion that changes Haruto’s coloring. Did you hear that the potion originally cannot be preserved for a long time? It’s because it’s a technology still in the middle of research. After a while, the effect of the magic will wore off. Therefore it’s necessary to deliver the magic potion once a month. Well, we can have it sent but when thinking about the risk of having the contents seen, it’s better for a person who knows the situation to personally deliver it. Then, considering someone with the social position who can have a personal audience with a foreign country’s Queen and taking into account all kinds of things, I was chosen.”

“Really? Thank you. But will it be alright with your job, Urie?”

He recently became the Knight Order’s squad leader recently, I heard he was a young man placed with expectations.
It didn’t seem good for a person of such status to leave the country regularly.

“That being the case, Prince Alexis made a transfer magic. It can jump until the vicinity of Orania’s border so half a day is sufficient. Therefore it’s alright.”

I thought Alex has been busy these days but I never expected that he was doing such thing.

Alex is also supporting me so I must also exert myself more, I thought as I renewed my determination.
