chapter 307
307.Unsolved Task (5)
“Well, how about it! “Isn’t it pretty?”
“After all, the original has to be pretty to get the makeup done.”
‘Is this…Me?’
Viola looked blankly at herself in the mirror.
Skin full of radiance thanks to the cosmetics applied to the skin, hair that was loose but well-groomed differently than usual, and a cardigan over a dress with a more feminine touch than usual.
Although it was Mura’s clothes, it was a bit tight for Viola to wear because her body size was different.
Anyway, the female students put their hands on Viola’s shoulders with a satisfied expression on their simple but girlish fashion.
“Hehe, I’m completely in love with this body’s makeup skills~”
Myura smiled proudly and pushed Viola’s hair that was scattered on the floor with her foot. She had to cut off half of her hair because the medication was too effective.
Viola, who had her hair straightened out, was so busy looking at herself that she did not notice her own hair on the floor.
“At this rate, you’ll fall in love at first sight with whoever you’re dating, right? No one would ever imagine that Viola would look like this~”
“No, I don’t think you can even recognize it as a viola? Her hair was tied up roughly and her face was makeup-free as usual. At this rate, she thinks Bratton will fall in love with you too?”
“Don’t say something like that, even as a joke. It’s like she has c*ckroaches running around on her skin… “
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
Viola sighed at Farah’s charming apology.
‘That damn bratton must be taking it easy by receiving an easy research project from the family…’
Since she comes from a famous alchemy family, she is probably working on one of the research projects being studied by her family. It was quite annoying for her, let alone her family, whose parents were ordinary adventurers.
“But… If I dress like this today, it’s really going to be difficult on a date, right? “I live in Yeomyeong-gwan.”
“Did you say it was Sunday? “On Saturday, come to the dormitory and sleep!”
“Don’t you know that you can’t bring in anyone else than someone who lives in the dorm? Then, if the housemaster catches you…”
“Hehe, that’s okay. Even the housemaster would turn a blind eye if I told him honestly that I was preparing for Viola’s sweet and sour first date, right?”
“…I don’t think that’s the kind of person.”
In response to Viola’s response to her, Myura presented her face to her and spoke loudly.
“You’re welcome! Although he may be a bit scary, he is surprisingly easy-going in that regard!”
‘…I have no idea.’
The housemaster she knew was an extremely strict person, so Viola couldn’t understand Mura’s words her her.
“Anyway, as long as we don’t make a lot of noise, the housemaster won’t find us. So, let’s meet in our room on Saturday after getting ready for bed. You can buy clothes and go right in. Okay?”
“Uh? Uh oh…”
“Then let’s change clothes again!”
“Uh oh…”
Viola nodded her head awkwardly, unable to adapt to the high tension of her friends.
———————-
“Viola! Wake up!”
“Ugh…5 more minutes…”
“What is 5 minutes! “I have to prepare quickly!”
“…What?”
“What the hell! Date! “I need to prepare for a date!”
“Aya!”
Viola pushed away Mura’s hand, which was shaking frantically, holding her shoulder, and yawned, lifting her body up. Without hesitation, Myura slapped Viola on the back as she woke up and sent her into her bathroom.
“Wash up quickly! It’s never too late to prepare from now on!”
“What time is it… 8 o’clock? “There are three hours left until the appointment, right?”
“Oh my gosh, Viola. Preparing for a date usually takes several hours. “If you don’t get in quickly, I’ll wash every corner of you?”
Viola gave in to Mura’s terrifying threats and quickly entered the bathroom. Pharah and Myura, who were looking at Viola’s back, looked at each other with worried faces.
“It’ll be okay, right?”
“Even if you don’t know who your date is, you have to do well…”
“If something doesn’t work out, it’s Viola’s fault. “We did our best to decorate it, but it’s Viola that can’t capture your heart, right?”
The two shrugged their shoulders and started putting the clothes and cosmetics that had been hanging in the closet on the table one by one. As soon as Viola came out from the shower, she was planning to start coordinating immediately.
“I don’t know who it is, but I’m lucky to have a date with Viola~”
“But from what you’re saying, it doesn’t seem like you were the date you chose. Who introduced you?”
“Elisha?”
“I guess it’s not him?”
“Because dogs don’t have many friends before men…”
The two had run into Elisa a few times while she was walking with Viola, and immediately left her off the list. Because I couldn’t imagine Elisha introducing a man at all.
“Then is it Milian? “He’s close with all the kids.”
“Oh, that’s right! If it’s Millia, it’s worth finding at least one!”
Parra and Dura conclude that it was Milia who introduced Viola to her date. This was because he was the person with the highest potential among Viola’s friends that the two knew.
While the two were chatting, Viola came out from the shower and approached them, wiping her hair with a towel.
“Hey, I washed up and came out.”
“Then sit here…Viola! Are you drying your hair that roughly?”
“Hmm? “Can’t I just squeeze out all the water with a towel?”
The two of them touched their foreheads in response to Viola’s question as if there was another way to clean it.
“Why do you treat your hair so poorly with such beautiful hair?”
“It’s annoying. It’s a waste of time to research.”
“Ugh. Done. No matter what, you still have to wear basic makeup. I managed to maintain this skin and hair until now…”
“If you polish it, it’s a diamond, but you don’t polish it~”
Even though Farah and Myura grumbled, they decorated the viola step by step.
After doing simple facial makeup, combing their hair, and putting on clothes that men would fall in love with, the two stepped back with proud expressions. Viola looked at herself in her full-length mirror and opened her mouth.
“I’ve seen it before, but it’s amazing…”
“I usually dress up like that.”
“I don’t have much to go to meet people anyway.”
“Don’t say that. It’s not like you’re only going on one date. Huh? Should we keep taking care of you like a babysitter?”
“That’s right. This is the first time we’ve stepped out like this, so remember what I taught you and be sure to buy cosmetics. Okay?”
“Okay okay. You can do it.”
“We will be tested every morning.”
“Do you go that far?”
“Yes!”
Viola looked at the two with a tired face, but the two just looked at her with serious faces. Viola, who received a lot of help from her friends, had no choice but to nod her head in the end.
“I will do as you say.”
——————–
“Going!”
“Cheer up!”
“Okay, so go quickly.”
When Viola waved her hand and bid them farewell, the two disappeared across the street, giggling.
The two had planned to go shopping together, so now Viola, who was left alone, could only stand blankly at her meeting place, wriggling her hands.
‘Who is the date Elisa was talking about?’
No matter how many times she asked, Elisa never revealed to Viola who she was dating.
Thanks to this, I couldn’t even conduct my research properly because I was imagining a date I didn’t know who he was.
‘After this date, I have to study hard.’
Viola didn’t have much confidence in herself to please her date. She had lived an easy-going life her whole life and was ignorant of the interests that women might have. She was so worried that her date would be disappointed.
“There are still 30 minutes left…”
The place we decided to meet was the central square of Kalon. Viola sat on the bench in front of her fountain spouting cool water and sighed as she looked at the clock in the distance.
“What should I say?”
Nice to see you? Nice to meet you? Hello?
What was dating for in the first place?
Bright red chaos began to unfold in Viola’s mind. What on earth should she do?
She wrapped her head around a sudden challenge.
“Oh, I don’t know. It will work out somehow.”
“Yes, it will work out somehow.”
“Therefore. Mister…Mister?!”
With her cries mixed with screams, Viola jumped up and took a step back. But is it because the action was too hasty? Viola caught her heel on a stone and almost fell.
If ‘Uncle’had not wrapped his hands around her waist and held her.
“It’s noticeably different from usual.”
“Float, float, float…”
“Floating?”
“Get away for now!”
Viola pushed John away with her bright red face and gasped for air. In an unexpected situation, the accident did not work properly like a rusty mainspring.
“Now, wait a minute, what’s wrong with your outfit?”
Viola belatedly raised her questions about John’s attire. The appearance of a man stylishly dressed like a nobleman, completely different from his usual knightly attire. Viola felt an inexplicable excitement at the sight of her.
“Because I have a date.”
Johan ignored her as if Viola was not his partner.
“I see…”
“Did you come out to play with your friends?”
“Uh? Uh…No, I also came…For a date.”
“Who is your date?”
“I don’t think it’s arrived yet. Who did you go on a date with? “Milia?”
“No.”
“Elisha?”
“Not even Elisha.”
“Oh, then Sif?”
“Not even Sif.”
“Then who is it?”
“It’s you.”
“…Me?”
John nodded.
Viola opened her mouth and pointed at herself, as if she didn’t understand what he was saying at all. When John saw her like that, he smiled and spoke again.
“I am your date. Viola.”
