Arc 9. The end of the forgotten extras
Episode 72
Filia looked at the invitation in her hand with excitement.
On a sheet of paper that smelled of a light perfume, an invitation was written in concise handwriting.
The place, time and dress code were written.
«This is my first event like this.»
It’s a small party where only a small number of people are selected and invited in advance when a boutique opens.
It was unfamiliar to Filia, who had been to numerous boutiques at home and abroad.
Madam, she arrived at Niveia’s boutique.
Filia unfolded her fan and stepped out of the carriage.
It’s a busy street at Berry’s, but today it seemed unusually crowded.
Today was the opening day of the fairy perfume boutique on the other side.
It was advertised quite heavily, saying that the perfume was specially developed by the Grand Duchess.
Many of the ladies around her said they would attend Tatiana’s event, but Filia was different.
She wanted to be a leader, not a follower.
So, of course, she chose Niveia’s boutique.
Still, I don’t think it was that crowded.
There didn’t seem to be anyone in front of the store except her carriage.
She stood in front of the store door with an anxious expression on her face.
The opaque colored glass doors decorated with roses and lilies were not imperial.
Filia took a deep breath and entered.
Miss Gwen!
There was no one else inside but her.
Regina Loretta is here.
In social circles, rumors were already circulating that Regina aspired to the position of Empress.
Regina was either shameless, Karina was ignorant or both.
Dear Loretta.
Pleased to meet you, Miss Gwen.
Regina had a slightly reminiscent expression on her face. The two waited in an awkward atmosphere for the time to pass.
With a jingle, the door opened and this time Helen Enrique entered.
Bowing slightly and standing beside her, Lella came down the stairs.
Dressed neatly, she smiled brightly.
Welcome, my name is Lella, the perfumer of this boutique. Thank you for participating in our boutique event.
Having said that, she led them inside.
The interior was decorated with colored crystals and mosaics like an exotic castle.
Each of the three had an assistant attached.
They assisted her and gave brief explanations.
All three chose the perfume they wanted, except Helen, who chose a light scent, they all chose ‘Karina’ .
Filia and Regina looked at each other with strange expressions.
It was ready to wear, so they had no choice but to buy the same, but it didn’t seem right to choose that way.
Then, I’ll take the three of them upstairs .
The people who had taken the perfume from them disappeared, and Lella took the three of them up to the second floor.
Here are the first products we presented, the perfumed body products that each perfume is based on.
Lella presented bath products and lotions, respectively.
The bathing agents were unfamiliar to those who usually bathed with tea leaves or petals.
It contains special ingredients found only in the Copyn Sea to make the skin softer and smoother. In addition, in a special way, the body is subtly scented for a long time.
Does this alone have the same effect as spraying perfume?
Helen was slightly interested in Lella’s words.
Spraying perfume was considered taboo by some conservative gentlemen.
Of course, it won’t be as complex as a perfume, but you will be able to feel the scent of the base notes for a long time.
At Lella’s words, Helen silently walked to the shelf.
After the explanation, in the private room in the back, they helped with the sample of the scent.
Five types of incense were prepared, and each of the three chose a different one.
It’s such a fun idea.
Filia rolled her eyes and looked around.
It was the perfect way to relieve the feeling of having to choose the same thing.
By the way, isn’t Princess Pioneer coming today?
Regina raised her hand and asked.
Her real purpose was to meet Karina.
Lella was a bit puzzled, but soon regained her composure and kept smiling.
The princess will probably come after finishing the last course.
The last one, of course?
All three blinked at the story they had never heard before.
Lella smiled confidently and led the three of them to the third floor.
The exotic atmosphere of the first and second floors was maintained, but the background was changed.
Conifers stretched high on the wall as if entering a forest, and the sky was red like the setting sun.
The air changed as in a quiet forest .
This is .
It is a special welcoming magic that we borrowed from the power of the current tower master .
At Lella’s explanation, the three of them looked around and entered .
There were three doors woven from flowers and wood. With the guidance of the staff, the three entered each room.
As they entered, the woman who had been waiting for them stood up.
Welcome, Miss Filia. My name is Mina, the attendant who will be taking care of you today.
Assistant?
Filia laughed awkwardly at the first word she heard.
Yes, trust me and I’ll show you exactly what it is.
Her eyes seemed to be burning with fighting spirit.
Filia hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Curiosity was greater than fear of the unknown.
With Mina’s guidance, she took off her clothes and put on a bath towel.
That’s why she told him to put on plain clothes.
Upon entering, there was a single-person wooden tub with a view of the ceiling.
The color of the water inside was different.
I used the same bath products from the exclusive line. You can think of it as trying it out beforehand.
As she soaked in the tub, she felt relieved.
Filia closed her eyes slightly.
* * *
The three of them got out.
Everyone’s body was soft, so their expressions were relaxed.
It was like heaven.
Regina closed her eyes as the tea was handed to her.
It was a little awkward to entrust her body to someone she didn’t know, but the effect was really good.
I didn’t know my body was stressed.
Filia felt pain every time I pressed it here and there. Mina said she used her strength as much as she could, but there were times when it was really hard to bear.
However, after Mina’s touch passed, her body definitely cooled down and finally endured it all.
I want to have an exclusive assistant.
Helen was the most fascinated by this massage among the three of us.
As a woman with a lot of exercise, this massage was the best experience.
I heard that the background and style of this place is derived from the realm of Havana. Have you been there Miss Gwen?
At Helen’s question, Filia shook her head.
It’s a very small country, so I’ve heard the name, but I’ve never been there.
I’ve only heard of it.
I’ve been there. It’s a popular place to vacation.
When Regina interjected, the three of them started chatting.
Until now they were awkward with each other, but they have relaxed, so their alertness has decreased.
By the way, when is Princess Pioneer coming?
Regina looked towards the stairs and muttered.
Why are you waiting so long for the princess?
Filia asked Regina as if it was strange.
Even so, the emperor’s betrothed had not yet made up her mind, so the two were nothing more than rivals.
She couldn’t understand why she appeared in a place like this and waited for Karina in such a thorough manner.
That that…
Regina blushed slightly and turned her head.
She first saw Karina at the last banquet.
The sight of her unblinking beside the authoritarian emperor was very impressive to Regina.
Moreover, she elegantly refused Sir Raymond’s oath, arousing the emperor’s jealousy.
Yes, she is beautiful. She’s nice too…
Filia clicked her tongue at Regina’s response as if it was ridiculous.
What do you mean by that?
Certainly, the princess is a beautiful woman who stands out.
Helen nodded as if in agreement. When someone came to her side, Regina clasped her hands together and her eyes sparkled.
Really. I’ve never heard of anyone other than the Grand Duchess being the most beautiful in the Empire.
Filia had no choice but to agree with her words.
The most talked about person in the social world in recent years was the Grand Duchess.
But after she stopped socializing after the marriage, her name kept going up and down among the people.
In comparison, Karina was barely mentioned.
Unlike Tatiana, who only attends mandatory events, she attended most of the events as a representative of the Pioneer Dukes.
It was really strange that there were very few mentions.
Filia rubbed her chin and muttered.
People were acting as if they had completely excluded the Pioneer Princess from social circles.
What are you talking about so much?
Regina jumped up from her seat to greet Karina , who suddenly appeared.
Even so, I was talking about when you were coming.
At Regina’s words, Karina smiled softly and bowed her head.
It’s an honor that you’re waiting for me. Did you enjoy your stay today?
It was really great.
The three of them reminisced about the special moments they experienced today.
The private space made it like being in a forest, even though it was indoors.
I really liked the massage I received for the first time.
Filia was convinced.
Everyone would be eager to use this facility.
