Vol.25 Chapter 7: Repeated mischief

The vast blue sky stretched out above, drawing in not only the gaze but also the very souls of those who looked up. Beneath that sky, fluttering in the breeze, was the bedsheet of Hiroto, the Secretary of State and Margrave. The courtyard of Hiroto's room in the Emperia Palace. The one who hung the sheets out to dry and let out a satisfied sigh was Mimia, a cute, busty girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was wearing a white dress with frills, and the green fabric of her undergarments was visible at the neckline. She was a mummy girl. The mummies had always been a despised race. Even in the kingdom's borderlands, that had not changed. As a race wrapped in white bandages, they had been forced to live a life in the shadows. Her life changed when she met Hiroto. She met Hiroto in the desolate town of Solm on the outskirts of the Hybride Kingdom, was taken in by him, and for the first time wore clothes other than bandages. She then came to the capital with Hiroto. For the mummies, this was a great advancement. She was happy now. She hoped this happiness would last forever. For now, her focus was on the sheets in front of her.

Just as she thought that, a girl with glasses approached her from behind. She was wearing a bright blue cheongsam that hugged her curvaceous body. She had a slim waist, a large butt, and long legs. The bottom of her glasses gave her a gentle rather than serious look. She was Sorciere, the daughter of Dalmur, the lord of Neka Town near Solm. She had been friends with Mimia for a long time. The mischievous smile on her face suggested she was up to something. She crept closer like a cheetah in hunting mode. Mimia was unaware.
