a week has passed in the arbento estate, after the duke and stella leave from the arcduke vincent estate, stella quickly went to her room, and rest while thinking about her new relationship.
She has to say that she didn't expect that she will have a relationship this fast, sure that she never had a chance to be with someone in her first life since she was focus on achieving her dream, so in this life she want to make sure that she will achieve it.
But never in her wildest dream that she would get a relationship with someone from the aristocratic family, let alone the archduke daughter, she simply just want to finish the quest that she got from the guild.
'Well, is no use to regret it now,' though stella who at that time was fighting 3 knight alone, while from the look at it, stella still had the upperhanded since the 3 knight who fighting her doesn't work together, and try to hit her just to impress the instructur, of course stella already knew that.
and that the reason why the instructur ask stella to train with the other knight, since her level almost the same as him and it will be a great lesson for stella as well to gain more experience.
at that time the knight launch a lot of attack to stella who just casually avoid the attack and tackle him while look at the other 2 who use the other knight to distract stella so they can give the girl a suprise, but at that time stella quickly grab the other person hand, and throw it to other 2 knight.
"that enough, the winner is stella," say ergi who look at the fight.
after the training session stella went to study room where her teacher was already waiting for her.
"i'm sorry that i'm late teacher," say stella who apalogize to her teacher.
"that alright, miss sophia just finish her lesson a while ago, now let's start your lesson as well," say orba who look at stella who look like reading a book, but if you closely she doesn't even read the book, just silent the whole time, like she was in her own world, thinking about something.
"is there something wrong, ?" ask orba to stella who regain her conciousness.
"n-no i just got something in my mind teacher," say stella to orba who look unconvince.
"is it because of your new fiancee, that you become like this, ?" ask orba who made stella look at him with her eye widen.
"h-how did you, ?" ask stella who don't know where to start.
"i ask the duke a few days ago, and he told me everything, have to say i'm proud, that you manage to cure the archduke daughter illness where a lot of people had try but fail, beside is a teacher duty to help his student when they were in trouble," say orba to stella who just touch the back of her head while smiling at her teacher compliment, that make the girl feel better.
"it just, i don't think i'm good match for her," say stella to orba who listen carefully.
"she the archduke daughter who can get everything that she want by just saying and one of the richest and most powerful family in the kingdom, while i'm just an employee of the duke, i don't have any good background, nor i have a great achievement that i can be proud off, i'm just a nobody," say stella who burst all of her stress to her teacher though the teacher listen to his student rambling and decide to give her some push.
"you are more than what you actually let on, stella do you know the reason why i never compliment you," say orba who stella just shake his head.
"is not because you are bad at studying, is because i don't want you to become arrogant, cocky and think that you are better than anyone else, in fact you are very smart student to the point you can be call a genius," say orba to stella who was silent as she listen to her teacher word.
"and what about achievement, you already achieve a lot of thing like saving the children of the duke, become an adventurer class C on your first day, and cure the arcduke daughter, that already quite a lot, and you can be proud of it you know, furthurmore you are still very young, you can achieve many great thing in the future, don't give up and always try even if you fail and people mock you, use that as inspiration to become even better than before," say orba who decide to pat the little girl head, giving her a compliment for her hard work, and cheer for her to be strong.
"thank you teacher," say stella who feel relieved, as she continue to study her lesson with ease at her heart, maybe right now, she is just nobody but it doesn't mean she has to give up just because of that, just as her teacher said, a failure is just a step toward success.
as she continue, his teacher was looking at stella with a relieved smile, since he manage to get stella back to her usual self.
in the morning after stella do some work out, she continue her training with the other knight when once again stella spar with other 3 knight from yesterday, but at that time the spar become a little harder for stella since the 3 of them, coorperate together.
'it look like they learn their lesson,' though stella who run toward them to the first knight who was ready to attack, but stella just pass by him and aim for the group behind behind and beat him before look at the other 2 knight who throw a blow to stella who dodging them while try to make some distance.
"are you ok, ?" ask the knight who help the kniht who just got beat by stella.
"yeah, i'm ok, i was careless, sorry about that," say that person.
"if you want to apalogy then work harder then let's beat her together," say his friend who raise his sword and charge toward stella together, while stella as well charge at them as well.
after the spar stella leave the field where she take a shower in her room before decide to rest, but at that time stella hear a knoch on her room.
"yes, please wait a minute," say stella who open her room door, revealing the head butler in front of the girl.
"is something the matter, ?" ask stella.
"the duke ask me to inform you come to his office immediatly, so after you done please go to the duke office," say the head butler.
"alright, thank you for telling me," say stella who then go to the duke office after the head butler notice her.
"do you call me sir, ?" ask stella to the duke who stop his work and look at the fox girl in front oh him.
"yes, i know is sudden but there is a request for you," say the duke to stella.
"request, from who, ?" ask the girl who at that time look at the duke.
"archduke and archduchess vincent," say the duke.
