"Sister, are you... going to some place far away?" Cole Kant's voice could be heard from behind Edith.
She continued sorting out her clothes without turning her head back to her brother. "Not very far away. I'll just hang around somewhere in the Western Region."
He came to her side and asked again, "How long will it take?"
"I don't know."
Cole started to look at the clothes piled on his sister's bed. "You didn't pick any formal dress, girdle or your favorite corset... Aren't you going to visit some nobles or attend banquets?"
Edith gave him a quick glance. "You've got stronger observation power now, but you don't always have to tell the others everything you notice."
The boy winced at once and said, "You were the one who taught me how to improve my observation ability."
"Now I'll teach you another thing. When you're talking to a woman, remember to remain graceful all the time and choose your words carefully, understand?"
