We’re happy to announce that a second release has been decided for Alice’s Random Box, the randomly assorted can badge merch previously sold.
Sales will begin on February 20. In addition, the first volume, which sold out very quickly last time, is also scheduled to receive a reprint. For more details, please check the X accounts of Shinkigensha and Morning Star Books.
As the release date approaches, an article will also be posted in the Activity Report.
The morning preparations of the Count’s daughter Sharon Cornelia always begin with a light bath. Although she is not the heir, she is still the eldest daughter of a high-ranking noble house, and she pays great attention to her appearance.
At the very least, she makes sure not to give other nobles any opening to look down on her in such matters, and so her morning routine is carried out with great care.
After the bath, she spends a fair amount of time changing clothes, applying makeup, and arranging her hair, all with the assistance of three servants.
As for today, she has no plans to attend a tea party or an evening banquet, so her appearance is kept somewhat restrained. Even so, she believes she has devoted sufficient time to ensure her grooming is flawless.
Normally, once her preparations are complete, the next step would be to review the day’s schedule. Of course, Cornelia is aware of her own plans, but to avoid even the slightest mistake, she goes over them with her personal maid. Only after that does she proceed to breakfast, this is the usual daily flow.
However, today was different. The moment her preparations were finished, Anne arrived carrying letters. This was a very bad sign. At first glance, it might not seem strange. Anne, albeit temporarily, was currently assigned as Cornelia’s personal maid, so her coming by after Cornelia was ready did not appear unusual.
Bringing letters could also be explained optimistically, sometimes urgent correspondence needed to be checked before the schedule review…… If one wished to think positively, that interpretation was possible, but unfortunately, reality was not so kind.
While Anne had indeed been assigned to Cornelia, that assignment was primarily a countermeasure on matters related to Miyama Kaito.
Tasks such as checking schedules or delivering letters were originally the responsibility of another dedicated maid; they were not supposed to be Anne’s duties.
And yet, Anne…… that Anne who had been assigned specifically to deal with matters involving Kaito, was standing there holding letters with a look of pity on her face, which could only mean one thing……
[……I have a very, very bad feeling about this…… T- This is an important letter, isn’t it?]
[I would say “most likely”, yes. After checking the senders, I felt it necessary to have you confirm them immediately, Lady Cornelia, so I brought them to you at once……]
[I- I see. Depending on the situation, we may need to adjust today’s schedule. So then, where are they from?]
At that moment, Cornelia felt exactly like a prisoner awaiting execution. Given that Anne was here like this, she steeled herself for the certainty that at least one of the letters concerned Kaito, and waited for Anne to speak.
[……First, a letter addressed to Lady Cornelia from the Seditch Magic Tool Trading Company.]
[Ahh, that one is no problem. It’s probably a preliminary greeting regarding the meeting, under the guise of a courtesy visit, that’s scheduled for the day after tomorrow.]
The first letter was from the Seditch Magic Tool Trading Company, and she had an idea what it was about. Trois, the Special Advisor of their Sales Department, was scheduled to visit the day after tomorrow under the pretext of a face-to-face meeting aimed at strengthening future cooperation. This was likely just a polite advance notice…… something along the lines of “We look forward to working with you the day after tomorrow”.
[Next, a letter from Miyama Kaito-sama.]
[……That one depends entirely on its contents. In the worst case, we may need to convene an emergency meeting. Eh? Anne? Why are you making that face……? D- Don’t tell me there are even more letters from outrageous senders?]
[And following that, letters from Dragon King-sama, Sky Dragon Nidzveld-sama, and Water Dragon Eingana-sama.]
[Hyuhk…… S- So…… that means exactly what I think it does, doesn’t it……? M- Most likely, at least in part, Kaito-sama has received the exclusive brushes. His letter is probably related to that. And the fact that letters came from those three means that Kaito-sama liked it and recommended it to them as well……?]
The shock of receiving letters from one of the Six Kings and two of his Executives was overwhelming. And yet, even so, Cornelia was still able to remain somewhat calm.
[That surprised me, but it’s within our expectations. Including the trading company management studies I’ve been cramming lately, Father, Mother, Brother, and I have all been making preparations to deal with this situation that was bound to come. It will be difficult, yes, but I’m sure we’ll manage somehow……]
[And next…… we have letters addressed specifically to you, Lady Cornelia, from Amel-sama, the chieftain of the Wingeds, as well as from the Wingeds’ negotiation representative.]
[……That was not within my expectations.]
Cornelia had spoken confidently, saying that inquiries from the Dragon King camp regarding the exclusive brushes were anticipated and that preparations had already been made, but at Anne’s next words, her expression froze as if she was a pigeon shot by a BB gun.
[W- Why the Wingeds? We don’t have any point of contact with them at all…… N- No, more importantly, the Wingeds hardly ever interact with anyone outside that Viscouncy bordering their settlement……]
[There’s more. Next is a letter addressed to you, Lady Cornelia, from Bacchus-sama of the War King’s Five Generals.]
[……Why?]
[And this one is a letter addressed to you, Lady Cornelia, from Gluttony-sama of the Ten Demons.]
[…………Whyyyyy?]
These letters were completely outside anything she had anticipated, and worse still, the senders were Executives of the Six Kings, all addressing Cornelia by name.
[………………………………Whyyyyyy!?]
It was hardly surprising that Cornelia ended up clutching her head and crying out in despair.
Serious-senpai : [So you really went and did it, Stomachache Devil. After that whole thing with Tetra, you probably went and spread even more “publicity” that just kept expanding the damage, didn’t you……?]
