After I returned from my morning bath which felt cold and refreshing, my private room was filled with Mama, Alice, Alyssa, and Mio. My bed was now filled with the party dress that the Marquess Rommel family wanted to wear. Since my party dress was a gift given by the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom, they wanted to match their party dress to match the color combination of my party dress.

"A white party dress? Isn’t it too contrasting with Lily-chan’s light brown skin color? Should we use a dominant combination of white?" said my mother while stroking her long hair that was tied up on her shoulder.

"Mama, what about other complementary decorations like hair ribbons?" asked Alice while taking a white hair ribbon.

"It’s not suitable to wear a hair ribbon if your hair has a beautiful spirit that has formed a contract with you. Honestly, your butterfly spirit is much more suitable than a hair ribbon. The harmony between your hair color and the butterfly spirit is very suitable," said my mother while looking at Alice and considering the appearance that suits her.

"What if we don’t use the same color of the party dress but use the same pattern of the party dress? Ignore the color that matches our style of dress, if our pattern is the same, wouldn’t that show the identity of the Marquess Rommel family?" said Alyssa while lifting a thin scarf engraved with the symbol of the Marquess Rommel family.

"Alyssa, that’s only done for parties involving diplomats of other noble families. Hmm… this scarf doesn’t seem too bad as our family identity, what if we use a cape engraving that symbolizes the Marquess Rommel family?" replied my mother while taking out a cape engraved with the symbol of the Marquess Rommel family.

"I think it’s suitable for Onee-sama to wear, wouldn’t it highlight her white party dress while carrying a sword hanging from her waist? Onee-sama will look like a brave woman ready to charge at anything in front of her using her sword!" exclaimed Alice who was starting to get excited.

"Oh! Uhm, how about a combination of dark and white colors Lily-nee’s spirit has a striking color pattern with a combination of purple and black. Doesn’t that feel more fierce to show Lily-nee’s facial expression which is full of pride as a noble girl?" said Alyssa who didn’t want to lose in giving an atmosphere to my appearance which was a little out of control.

While my family was preparing the party dress that would be worn to attend the royal family party invitation, I sat quietly at my dressing table while staring at my reflection in front of the mirror. Right now I was only wearing a thin camisole as a base outfit that would cover my entire body with the party dress.

Mio who was standing beside me just combed my hair repeatedly and made sure every strand of my hair was straight and not messy. My gaze was fixed on the reflection of my body which now felt very different.

Zoe was flying with her spirit sisters for a while.

So I had free time to sit quietly while waiting for my family’s decision to wear the right combination of clothes to attend the royal family party invitation.

"Lily-sama, are you bored while waiting for Amagi-sama, Alice-sama, and Alyssa-sama to decide on a suitable party dress combination to improve your image in front of the other noble families?" Mio asked while combing my long hair.

"Not at all," I answered in a quick tone because my back was already sweating.

"Lily-sama, maybe my question will sound very impolite. Are you still feeling hurt after what happened to you at the previous noble party?" Mio asked while stopping the movement of her hand that was combing my hair.

"I don’t have a problem with that, what happened to me was a form of my inability to respond to that one-way bullying, Mio."

"..."

"But in the future, I will make sure that bullying like that will not happen again because the honor of the Marquess Rommel family is at stake in the eyes of the other nobles, right?"

"..."

"Don’t worry, Mio. If someone bullies me again, I will make sure to respond with all my might. It didn’t matter if it was a noble family higher than Marquess Rommel. I will gladly repay their actions according to the sins they have committed."

"..."

Mio listened to my answer carefully without taking her eyes off my smiling expression in front of the mirror. Mio’s small nod indicated her agreement that supported my decision to fight the bullying that would be given by other nobles after the royal family party began.

"Then, I need to prepare to bring a small sword to tuck under my skirt," replied Mio while closing her eyes and tidying my hair again with a gentle touch using a comb.

My mood was in good condition after receiving two blessings that had been given by my Goddess.

The corner of my eye was now staring at the written screen given by my Goddess through the new Yurification System screen display.

====================

Heroine Blessing

Blessing effect:

An Exclusive blessing that is only given to an individual named Lily Schwarz De Rommel from the Goddess. This blessing serves to attract the attention of good karma to other girls who become more interested in approaching, getting to know, and respecting you as a girl who has a charming heroine aura as a girl who is the best heroine role model they have ever met.

Side effects of the blessing:

Some girls may go a little overboard in approaching, getting to know, and respecting you excessively. Do not hesitate to look at a girl who kneels and offers loyalty to you as a friend or something more than a friend. The side effects of this blessing are a little beyond the control of the Goddess because there has never been a trial in overcoming the side effects of this blessing.

Their worship may be a little excessive but deserves appreciation because you are their role model as a perfect girl.

Demon Queen Blessing

Blessing effects:

An Exclusive blessing that is only given to an individual named Lily Schwarz De Rommel from the Goddess. This blessing serves to attract the attention of bad karma to other girls who become more interested in approaching, getting to know, and respecting you as a girl who has a charming villain aura as a girl who is the best villain role model they have ever met.

Side effects of the blessing:

Some girls who have negative traits are very interested in you and excessively make you the reason for their lives to submit and obey you. Some girls will have an obsession with you, be possessive of you, and if you are lucky then some yandere girls follow you secretly like stalkers. Putting aside their strange traits, they are good girls and need to be corrected further by you. Your next read awaits at empire

====================

"Is this a blessing or a burden on my life that is getting heavier?" I commented after reading one by one the lines of text that appeared before my eyes.

In conclusion, some girls who have good karma or bad karma will be interested in getting to know me better. Some of them might see me as a respected figure or a role model for something.

That means all my actions will have conflicting effects on each other.

Uh, I don’t understand this at all.

Why does the Goddess always use words that are hard for me to understand?

"Lily-sama, is attending the royal family party a heavy burden in life?" Mio asked after hearing my previous comment.

It wasn’t a comment directed at the royal family party but rather the Yurification System itself.

"It’s nothing, Mio. It’s just that I’ll be busy defending myself from the upcoming bullying. So please prepare my sword properly to keep it attached to my waist," I requested to Mio who was still combing my long hair with her hand.

"Is that okay, Lily-sama? Isn’t carrying a sword a rule that is allowed for military noble families and some guards?"

"Hmm… it’s okay, they’ll probably think it’s just a clothing decoration since my mother seems to have prepared a party dress design that might match the presence of the sword on my belt."

When my words stopped, Mom walked towards me carrying the party dress given by the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom along with a cape that had the symbol of the Marquess Rommel family.

"Lily-chan... are you ready to be the main character in this royal family party?" said my Mom with a smile.

For some reason, I could see my Mom’s eyes emitting sparkling light that was directed at my body. With an incredibly fast movement, my Mom managed to push Mio away from beside me and rushed to give me the finishing touches to my makeup.

My mother held a small makeup that made my face look more radiant than before, the movement of her hand combing my hair that looked like a little girl with a stern expression, and my party dress accessories that looked more like a suit than a military family party dress.

The Marquess Rommel family itself is a military family, so this is not a party dress style that does not match my family roots based on military nobility. When a cape was placed on my shoulders and the sword given by Mio was tightly tied to my waist, I could feel a big change that had occurred in my appearance.

A little girl wearing a party dress that was a combination of white and black gave a scary touch with the cape decoration that showed the symbol of the Marquess Rommel family. A sword hanging from my waist added to the scary impression, especially with a flat expression on my face without a smile.

"Not bad, may I complete your cold nature, Master?"

My eyes were drawn to my appearance which looked cold and calm. When Zoe perched on my hair, it had created a perfect appearance of a cold and graceful girl. Zoe’s butterfly wing color has given the perfect finishing touch to convey the message not to bully me during the party.

This makes me amazed at my Mom’s taste who seems to understand my body condition.

This look is not bad either.

Yup, I like this cold and calm look.
