Thankfully, it was just a normal strawberry cake, although still quite fancy and elaborately decorated. The horrifying thought of something created in her image being carved up and eaten had already sent shivers down Emilia's spine, though. She made a mental note to try staying away from the celebrations hosted by anyone who could possibly do so. The pot-bellied man smiled widely as he lifted the little party star over his shoulders, making her squeal in delight. "Happy Birthday to my one and only…

The birthday girl, Bianca, had seen Emilia's interview on the TV, and was under the impression that she had 'beaten up tons of bad guys' and 'rescued children'. To her, Emilia was like a real-life superhero. Even after Emilia clarified that this wasn't exactly what happened, and that most of the credit should go to the employees who worked so hard to actually make it possible, the little girl only thought that her hero was being humble. Emilia had already done some homework on the girl, also known…

How could the boys not 'enlighten' them when given such an opportunity to speak out without taking the blame? "Eh? You girls don't know? Emilia White is the childhood sweetheart of 'young master' Amos! Doesn't he always 'talk' about her?" Tia and Mia looked at each other, perplexed. "Huh? Wasn't that Danielle?" "And… wasn't she supposed to be like, as ugly as a piglet or something? And wasn't her personality so totally disgusting that no one else could compare?" The two sisters stared at…

Amos watched Emilia seamlessly mingle with the young boys and girls of the upper class. It didn't look like she was attending this kind of party for the first time at all, making all his efforts through the years look like complete jokes. Of course, with Emilia's previous experience, handling this kind of social event really wasn't much at all. Not to mention Dixie, even the other partygoers thought that Emilia treated the party quite casually. But only she knew how much thought she had put into…

Even as the two blonde girls continued to shower him with praise and admiration, the silver-haired hero couldn't feel a single bit of happiness. He wouldn't even bother entertaining them if not for his luck being so down today. He didn't even know their names. All he could recall was that they were from the Gregory family. But aside from these two girls, most of the people who always followed him around like loyal little dogs all seemed adamant to keep their distance now. Amos didn't think he had…

The hero's mind couldn't be at ease ever since Emilia turned even his father's move on its head. He was filled with anger and anxiety as he thought about how ineffective everything seemed when it came to harming her. Feeling perturbed, he had broken his usual habit and arrived at the party earlier than most. And shortly after, dozens of young boys and girls came to greet him, as was expected. He assumed that this would be a party like many others he had attended before. Even if that little bitch got…

A strange, oppressive feeling seemed to descend upon her along with Emilia's dark gaze, causing Dixie's heart to thump in terror. It was an inexplicable thought, considering how innocent and sweet her princess was in the knight's heart. "Who do you like?" Dixie gulped. 'Is this how daddy feels when mom's angry?' "N-No one right now, but—" Emilia smiled, the arc of her lips gentle and accommodating, but the dangerous glint in her eyes sent shivers of excitement and fear down Dixie's spine.…

Although Emilia hadn't expected such a request from her ever-loyal 'knight', she didn't find herself averse to the idea. Instead, she gave Dixie a mischievous smirk as she sashayed her way over to the now bumbling mess of a girl. "You want me to kiss you, Dixie?" As she realized just what she had blurted out, the dark-haired girl's face bloomed with a furious blush as she desperately tried to salvage the situation. "I-I mean, my mom asked me to bring a picture of you kissing me in exchange of that…

"Huh? I don't get it. Don't worry, even if someone burns your scalp off, it won't stay like that for long. As long as we don't run out of energy, it's all good." "Speaking of which, how much do we have right now?" "… Plenty." "…" Emilia rolled her eyes. But it's not like she could do anything about it even if she knew, so she didn't prod her partner too much. "That Amos guy must be going crazy right now, though. Not only did we not suffer, we even gained quite a bit!" Emilia snorted.…

It was almost evening by the time they were done with the interviews, and while Samantha still had to take care of some loose ends on her side, Emilia was finally free to retreat to her room. "I can't believe you managed to pull it off!" Emilia breathed a sigh of relief as she slammed her room's door close. Cynthia's surprise wasn't unwarranted, because there were simply too many things that could have gone wrong. But thankfully, most of it had worked out in her favor. Of course, the…
