Bab 176: Meeting A Schoolmate

"Enjoy the party, Mistress," Katsuki bowed as she saw me off at the entrance of the ballroom.

Several other nobles were already here and they were looking at my direction with a mixture of awe and envy.

Obviously they were looking at Katsuki since they recognised her maid uniform that outed her as a maid of the Nilm family. I didn't realise this until just now but apparently every maid from my family wears a very specifically designed headdress and those in the know would recognise it.

I have yet to figure out what was so special about it though, since I was more concerned about the sweets I'm about to partake.

And since only prominent nobles could hire maids from our family, Katsuki's presence was already putting me ahead of everyone else around here, even if no one knew who I was.
