The moon, for the first time in her life, was in the Imperial Palace. She was very embarrassed and became a little stiff. It used to be a place she could never go to.

She did not even think that someday she would be able to get rid of all the misunderstandings and live a normal life.

- What's this...? Gold...?"

Luna asked as she touched the pillars of the hall on the first floor. She wanted to bite into that gold after tasting it, but suppressed that urge and simply asked.

Rosemary nodded and said:

- Right. For generations, the royal family has loved gold. They believe that gold represents eternity. That's why the Imperial Palace is covered in gold everywhere."

According to her, all parts of the Imperial Palace were covered with gold. Ornaments, chandeliers, picture frames, columns and even curtains were embroidered with gold thread.

"Is that also gold?" Luna asked, pointing to the painted Imperial Crest on the floor.

- Yeah. I know that grooves were dug in the floor and the gaps filled with gold. Pretty cool, isn't it?"

It could be said that the entire palace would have been built of gold.

"How much money was invested in this?"

From all sides it shone so brightly that Luna's eyes hurt.

"If you look at all this any longer, your eyes will fall out." Let's go to the banquet hall."

Upon reaching the third floor, a servant waiting at the entrance to the main hall asked Luna and Rosemary for their names.

"Please state your name."

"I'm Rosemary Vincent and this is my escort Lady Luna Pales."

Luna wanted to confirm Rosemary's words, but suddenly, the servant raised his voice and called out the names of Rosemary and Luna.

"Marquise Rosemary Vincent and Baroness Luna Pales have arrived!"

The nobles who had arrived a little before them stopped talking nicely to each other and looked around after hearing the servant's announcement.

When Luna looked at Rosemary, she held out her hand with an awkward smile and said.

- I think everyone is very curious and they want to know more about you. Let's go to."

"It doesn't seem to be good..."

However, they could no longer stand at the entrance. It would be even more noticeable. Luna grabbed Rosemary's hand and slowly stepped inside.

"...Have I ever received so much attention on myself?"

So many people didn't watch her every move, even during Fersen's trial. Since she was at a formal event for the first time, everyone, regardless of gender and status, looked directly at the moon.

Not intentionally, but the Moon was the most interesting figure in the empire.

Luna did not like the whole situation, but suddenly someone called Rosemary and Luna.

"Rosemary, Lady Luna."

Karen, Layla, Leona!

She was very lucky to have people they knew in the hall. So Rosemary and Luna, who were struggling to ignore the stares, approached Karen.

- Oh, my God ... Do you have similar dresses? The details are a little different, but the design is very similar."

To Karen's surprise, Rosemary responded with a wide smile, as if it was a long-awaited question.

- Do you want to know? I wanted our dresses to be similar."

- Ahh. You go well with each other. Last time you chose the same headbands and gloves, but this time it's the dresses. I envy. Next time, please, can I choose an outfit with you. "

At that moment, Luna, who imagined that all three were wearing the same dress, decided to interrupt their conversation and asked.

- How are you?"

- Good. Except that I visited Flora several times and never saw her. However, she is also an aristocrat who has become an adult this year, so she must be at this party. So I will definitely talk to her and find the real culprit."

Karen said with a gentle smile.

It wasn't necessary, so Luna tried to restrain Karen.

- You don't have to do it. You will only hurt your heart for no reason. This whole situation will gradually resolve itself."

- You have suffered from all these rumors more than me. I really want to help."

After Karen's answer, the noblewomen nodded as if in agreement.

Luna was surprised that strangers took her side, Rosemary, who was watching this, interjected with a soft smile.

- Are you friends of Karen? Looks like the misunderstanding is cleared up."

- Yes. We are all so sorry that this happened..."

The noblewomen standing next to Carmen greeted Luna sweetly. There were quite a few of them.

- Nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you from Lady Karen."

"You must have spent a lot of time getting rid of these rumors."

Luna, her cheeks reddened, she was seized with indescribable excitement.

- Thanks. I'm glad to see you. This misunderstanding was indeed not easy to resolve, but thank you very much."

Meanwhile, other nobles who recognized Rosemary gathered around her.

After a while, Rosemary introduced Luna to everyone.

- This is Lady Luna Pales, she is accompanying me today. She is also the owner of a gold mine."

- A gold mine?

When she mentioned the gold mine, the views of the crowd changed. No matter how many rumors there were about her, they began to look at her differently when they found out that she owned a gold mine at such a young age.

Other nobles who were walking and listening to their conversation covered their faces with fans and whispered among themselves in amazement.

Rosemary, in a clear, loud voice, continued.

- Yes. She also recently bought the Rose Mansion, which I loved so much. On this occasion, we invited several people and held a commemorative party."

Karen and the young people smiled happily as they listened to Rosemary's story.

"I am very glad that all misunderstandings are now in the past."

Rosemary concluded.

As if Rosemary's friend couldn't take it anymore, she asked Luna about the rumors.

"What do you mean by misunderstandings?"

- About everything. It's hard to explain. First of all, Lady Luna has a bad relationship with Master Rodrien."

The nobles wanted to hear more details, looking at Rosemary with burning eyes, but there was no further response.

At this time, a certain aristocrat who was walking around without being involved in the conversation cautiously pushed his way into the center of the crowd and asked.

- I'm wondering if it's true that the story that you sued Mr. Rodrian and won? My mother, who was personally present at the trial, told me about this."

Of course, he already knew it was true. His mother couldn't suddenly go crazy and blame Fersen just like that.

He just wanted to ask about it and get into the center of the general conversation.

- It's true. Fersen asked my father for the right to sell gold from my mine, but he refused, so he kept him, not letting him go home. We sued and won, but Fersen was fined a thousand gold pieces."

- Really?"

Karen asked with wide eyes because Luna didn't mention the lawsuit in their last meeting.

- Yes. When the trial ended, various rumors spread ... "

The young man who asked the question knew the answer, so he only smiled when he was in the spotlight.

Luna wanted to answer that question as soon as possible, but a familiar voice interrupted her.

- I heard that you won the trial, but this is the first time I hear about a fine of a thousand gold pieces. After all, I should have gone to this court."

It was Antares.

Luna, surprised by his sudden appearance, opened her eyes wide. Rosemary was also surprised and clutched her cheeks.

- Brother...!?"

He was still the same, great looks and graceful manner, the only difference was that 10 years had passed.

"Antares...?"

"Antares Vincent...!?"

With the appearance of a crazy psychopath, silence reigned in the main hall.

- Rosemary.

In response, Antares called her name. Ten years later, the brother and sister of the marquis family were reunited.

Unfortunately, there was no emotion or joy from the reunion. On the face of the brother and sister, who parted not in a good way, there was nothing but amazement and shock.

- Why are you here...?"

Asked by Rosemary, Antares stared at the moon for a moment.

Then, as if he didn't like it, he responded very harshly.

- I came because the moon is here. What do you really want from her?"

His voice was very intimidating.

Someone swallowed dry saliva. Some even complained and called the guards, fearing that Antares would get angry.

Rosemary lived with Antraes for a long time in the same house, so she knew well when he was angry and when not.

- What are you talking about?"

Rosamary asked without understanding.

"I asked why you are with Lady Moon."

Because we are very close friends. What's so strange about being friends with her?"

- Friends?"

Laughing, Antares asked again.

Luna came up with the day when Antares and Fersen clashed.

It was probably a new drama. The difference is that now everything is happening in front of a huge audience.
