NovelEnglishChapter 82
"But the butler allowed Lady Rose to go out without waiting for His Grace to return?"
"She asked for permission directly."
After Barry returned from running his errand, Rose, Barry, and Anne left the escort knights trailing behind them and walked about the plaza.
Barry and Anne, standing on each side of Rose, were deep in conversation.
Rose quietly walked along and listened to the two, who conversed as though she weren’t standing between them.
"Lady Rose asked by herself? Hmm, but... she hasn’t been out often."
"Is this the first time she has pleaded to leave the manor?"
"Haa... Oh, how I envy the butler and Barry."

It was clear to her that Anne was speaking in a slightly joking tone on purpose, knowing that she was listening.
Pretending to look around, Rose tried to act as though she was engrossed in her surroundings rather than their conversation.
The air of the plaza, full of the people living there, carried the faint fragrance and vitality of flowers just short of full bloom.
As they chatted, Rose felt the two unknowingly drift away from her side.
Calling out to them, she caught sight of something in the plaza square from the corner of her eye.
"What’s that?"
Eventually coming to a standstill, she pointed in a certain direction. Following the motion of her finger, Anne and Barry turned in unison to see what had captured their mistress’ attention.
A tent had been erected at the location Rose pointed to. Though it may not have been big, it seemed like it could fit ten people.
There was a line of people at the entrance to the tent. The line was so long that it stretched past three buildings.
Barry covers her mouth with one hand.
"Oh! Has Master K already arrived in the capital?!"
At the surprised exclamation, Anne nodded.
"That's right. I was also surprised to see it earlier. Master K came early this year, right?"
"Ah… Master K usually comes around the beginning of the founding festival every year."
Anne and Barry seem to know the reason for the tent.
Rose did not hide her curiosity as she looked at the two of them alternately. Anne noticed her growing curiosity and elaborated.
"That's Master K's fortune-teller tent."

Rose's eyebrows drew together in a frown.
"Haa... It's the first day, so I'm a little tired."
As the previous guest left the tent, Kate stretched her arms up. If that wasn't enough to relax her tired muscles, she rose up from her seat, walked around, and warmed up lightly.
The past, present, and future that the guests wanted were usually informed by her crystal ball.
Normal people can't see what appears in the orb, so Kate had no choice but to see it through her own eyes and repeat it to them.
It was a very important job for her to do.
"I guess I’ll just have to accept that previous guest as the last. Hmm… From what I saw earlier, it seems that the skewer shop has started business..."
Kate's mouth salivated over the snacks that were made and ready to eat after she closed up for the night. She was determined to claim that the previous guest was her final and last guest of the day.
At that moment, a wind blew into the tent as if against her resolve.
Kate's eyes widened at the sound.
"I can’t close the business yet?"
Sometimes God would send her requests from time to time through the wind.
Trying to recall any important news she’d gathered on the current situation and list of demands God had given her, Kate shrugged, unable to recall.
