Marius explained how the liquors were switched. How the purple hair maid was trying to seduce Dante. Laina listened to all of it in silence. Marius carefully watched Laina for any change in expression, any signs of jealousy.
"That maid sure had a lot of guts to pull off something like this," Laina commented after hearing Marius's recount of what happened.
"Yeah, you're right," Marius replied, as the gears in his mind processed the information, "She probably acted on someone's orders."
Laina nodded in agreement, "You have a point there. I mean, trying to seduce a King and getting him drunk to do so? One of the oldest tricks in the book."
"Oldest trick in the book? What do you mean?"
Laina explained to Marius the tales she had heard, sometimes through the gossip grapevines. These were tales of the lower classes wanting a better standing in life. Sometimes, they will try to climb up in society through different means.
