Arthur looked at Marinda in surprise.
Then, the young 'Spirit Medium' rolled her eyes and leaned back into the chair, speaking in a tone mixed with instruction and disdain—
"If you want to pretend to be in the dawn of love, you can't be holding a smoking pipe.
If you want to feign indifference while actually caring, you can't be wearing hunting attire.
Even now, you're unwilling to call me 'dear.'"
As he said this, Arthur looked at Marinda with a half-smile.
Of course, Arthur knew why Marinda was asking if he was busy tomorrow.
Because—
Inheriting a noble title!
Before the onset of winter, Marinda would inherit Baron Kemir's title.
Coincidentally, it was shortly after the 'South Los Swordsmanship Competition' had ended.
This was something Marinda had personally told Arthur long ago, and he hadn't forgotten.
As for why she chose to start inheriting the title the day after the South Los Swordsmanship Competition ended?
