"Father!" I barged right into my father's office.

"I have something to ask of you"

"Right, first sit down Salvarina" He said calmly.

"Father I'm here to make a proposal"

"proposal?" He asked confused.

"I'm asking if you want to invest in my business"

"You're starting a business?.. Well If it's funds you need you can take how much you want"

"No father. I want to make my own money and for that I don't want to use my family's influence. We are what we are is because of our ancestors and just like them I want to contribute to our future descendants"

"I see" He was deep in his own thoughts.

"So father. Apart from our father - daughter relationship. I hope you can invest in my business as just an investor"

"Then let's see" He asked me to show my business plan and I began describing it to him.

"An ice box?" He asked.

"Yes. Apparently father, we can store food in cold place without letting it rot. It's the best preservation technique. Think about all the food that we are wasting" I explained.

"I get it" He answered.

"Do you think nobles care about the food they waste?" He further asked.

"I know that they don't care but their chefs do. All the chefs from proficient families are competing with each other in the shadows. Also even the nobles boast about the expertise of their chefs during tea parties so of course they'll buy it if it'll make them look good "

" That's a great explanation... Alright I'll be investing in it " He answered.

" Great! "

" So where are you planing to set up your office "

I grinned.. "of course, at the capital"

........................

"Mylady, do you like it?"

"Hmm.. It looks quite shabby"

I'm now currently looking for a building which can be set into my office.. I mean trading house.

"It'll look neat once you clean it up. I can arrange people for that"

"Alright then we'll be buying this"

"Mylady, have you thought of a name?" Mary asked.

"Yes."

"What is it?"

"chrysanthemum" I whispered

Mary looked surprised but then her expression became soft.

The reason is... Salvarina's mother, Edith Julia Salvair was known as the chrysanthemum of the empire. She died during child birth. So I wanted her to be remembered through this. I don't know why I did that. I mean I'm not the original Salvarina. I'm Choi Heun. So I didn't have to be this emotional. It almost seems like I'm turning into the original Salvarina.

"Mylady!"

"Ah mister John, did you bring in new talents"

"Yes, there are twenty in total."

"Great, I would like you to introduce me to them"

So the employees were Mark, Peter, Lupus, Grug, Roy, Amik, Barb, Joy, Lemon, Melvin, Campton, Filler, Fickle, Carter, all of them signed the agreements.

"Good, Mr John, you all will be working at the second block. I'll be arranging the office at the Third block and our shop will be at the first block."

"Alright Mylady"

And then just like that everyone rushed in and began their work.

Now I have to move to the next phase of the plan... Because of all this tension I forgot why I wanted to make an ice box in the first place. It's because of ice cream!

After reaching home I was on my way to the kitchen.

I suddenly bumped into Sir Rufus. He was training the knights. He was covered in sweat but it felt like he was dazzling. His shirt seems to be quite transparent. T-this i-is.. Eyecandie ~.. I can't stop myself from drooling at him.. No! No! I have to go to the kitchen. When I was trying to stop myself from looking at him I saw the entire group of knights in the same state. More Eyecandies. Why is all of them so damn hot!

"Ah. Lady salvarina" Rufus said while bowing. All the knights followed this suite.

"Ah yes, Sir ballad. All of you guys are training hard" Don't look at the muscles. Avoid the abs. Don't look at it. I chanted inside.

"Yes mylady. We have to be capable of protecting you" Why is he saying such sweet things wile covered in sweat?? I almost got a nosebleed.

"Then train hard" I said with a straight face.

"Lady, may I know where you'll be going"

"Ah, we are going to the kitchen"

"The kitchen?" all of the knights said in unison.

Well it's quite natural as to why they are so shocked. Noble ladies don't enter the kitchen. It's considered as unetiquette.. If that's even the word for it..

"Yep, we are going to make something"

"Then we'll be leaving. Train hard you guys. Fighting!" I left quickly. Thank goodness I didn't look at those muscles. They would think that I'm a pervert.

"Chef!"

"Yes mylady"

"Where's the icebox?"

"It's right here"

"Alright then. Did you make the batter as I instructed?"

"Of course"

I put the batter inside the box and turned its dial to second option. It had three options 1st, 2nd and 3rd. 1st option is for beverages, 2nd option is for ice-creams and 3rd option is for ice cubes and to freeze anything. Just like a freezer.

It took about ten minutes and I opened it.

Viola ~ice cream is ready~

"So, who wants to taste it?" I asked cheerfully while looking at them.

Why does everyone look so scared?.. Ah.. It's because I'm Salvarina.. I'm known as cold and cruel.. Welp.. They have no idea what they are missing by not tasting the ice cream..

"Me!" Mary said beside me.

"me too" The head chef came forward.

We three took spoons and tasted it. It was fabulous. I almost cried. It was vanilla ice-cream. Still it tasted better from the one I tasted in my previous world.

"it's heavenly mylday" Mary said wiping tears from eyes.

She already cried?.. Looks like this is a success..

"My lady!" the head chef grabbed my hands.

"T-this is... Extra fabulously remarkably deleciously tasty..."He said while crying.

I didn't know that ice-cream could make people cry.. These two aren't stopping crying.. All the other people in kitchen are whispering and are dumbstruck..

" my lady... Can I taste it too? "A shallow voice came from the back of the crowd..

A little maid came forward.. She looked ten or maybe eleven..

I nodded and smiled while giving her a spoon.. Soon when she ate it she burst into tears..

" I haven't ever eaten anything so tasty "she said crying along with the headchef and Mary..

Can't they react in a more normal way?..

" Lady can we also - "

" Here you go "I handed her the ice-cream and all of them began tasting.

Please don't cry.. Please don't cry.. I chanted inside.

" Mylady!!! Waaahhhh!!!!! "

" Mylady!! I can't stop crying "

" Mylady! I'm in love with this cream "

" Mylady this is truly heavenly!! " and just like that everyone in the kitchen began crying.

I just stood there dumbstruck.

No one.. I repeat.. No one is right in their head..
