TL:Zimming

I was sprawled on the gazebo alone, staring at the mirror with a stunned face.

No matter how much I looked at it, two of my upper teeth were gone.

Im screwed.

Children my age start going to activities outside around this time of year. Not going to a full-fledged tea party, but like showing up at a family event.

But if I go out now

In addition, another two teeth on both sides of my teeth were on the verge of falling off.

Stay with me, guys. If you guys fell off, Ill be really ugly. At least leave after spring.

While I was praying eagerly with a mirror in my hand, I heard the chairman come in.

I have a letter.

Looking at the envelope, its a letter from Seria. I took the letter from his hands.

..?

The chairman, however, was staring at my face for a while, not willing to hand over the letter.

I came to see you.

You came to see me? If not, did Seria asked you to take my picture and send it to her

Then he pulls out the magic device

I brought some of these.

Oh my god, thats embarrassing.

Why?

Its just strange. I cant even pronounce some words properly. What if people tease me later?

Then ask the head of the Dubos family to grow your teeth.

I opened my eyes wide.

Is it possible to control human growth? Ive never heard of itah.

Veronica Dubos, the head of Dubos family, is a witch who has her physical body not getting older for over 80 years. In other words, she stopped the growth of the human body.

The chairman nodded.

She would be number one in that field.

I want to meet her.

If Veronica helps me grow my teeth

I immediately called the escorts because my dad said I could go anywhere freely as long as I brought three escorts.

***

But why did this happen?

In the carriage, I glanced at Johann sitting opposite me.

How inconvenient

I was only going to the Dubos mansion, but I was accompanied by Johann.

A large number of knights were absent because they started training ahead of spring. So the only people who could take me to the mansion were Johanns guard.

Oh no, little misswait a minute, Johann also has business to attend in the Dubos mansion. Why dont you come together with him?

I expected Johann would refuse, but he didnt for some reason.

Excuse me, thank you

Johann looked at me.

What for?

For bringing me with you.

I have to go to the Dubos mansion, and when I took you with me, the people didnt pay attention to me, making it easier for me to move. Its a win-win situation.

Johann spoke monotonously.

That,ah, yes. Its not something to thank for.

When I nodded cheerfully, he glanced at me again.

Like what my aunt said, youre a weirdo.

Me?

Youre unique.

Why?

When that happens, usually people say thank you again anyway.

But you say its not something to thank for

Oh well, I dont care.

Then I wont apologize!

I laughed as Johann turned away.

I should never bother Johann.

He wont attack unless something bothers him.

When Henry and Isaac didnt attack first at the dinner yesterday, he wouldnt do anything.

We arrived and the carriage stopped.

Me and Johann entered the mansion, welcomed by the Dubos family.

Nice to meet you, little miss. My name is Melanie Dubos, Viscount Dubos wife.

A middle-aged woman greeted me.

I feel like shes a good person.

She looks really friendly and nice.

Nice to meet you, beautiful madam.

Oh my god, how can you be so lovely? Ive heard a lot from my husband. My husband always entertains me with your stories.

Oh really?

When I looked at Dubos, he flinched, and his wife laughed.

Suddenly, I could hear someone calls me

Little miss!

It was Veronica calling me while going down the stairs.

She clasped my hands as soon as she came down.

Im glad you arrived here safely! I was so excited to receive your letter. Ive got a lot of snacks for you! Oh, right. Melanie, wheres the chocolate biscuit I asked for?

Ill tell the servants to buy it. Why dont both of you go upstairs first and talk?

Melanie said kindly, so Veronica led me upstairs.

Ill show you the office. Theres a lot of fun things there.

The people of the Dubos seemed to be a bit embarrassed, but I went up the stairs with her.

Upon entering the office, Veronica explained this and that.

This is the root of Elsa tree, this is the fossil of the ironclad dragon, and

Excuse me

Veronica widened her eyes as I spoke.

Yeah?

She glanced at me. Only then did Veronica blush and murmur, Oh, I forgot the greeting

Nice to meet you, little miss. Welcome to the Dubos mansion.

Yes, thanks for showing me this great place.

She murmured,

Everyone says its a weird place thoughah! Sit here and wait here.

As soon as I sat down, she carried the doughnut and cake to my plate and asked,

But what brings you here today?

I have a favor to ask.

Say it.

My teeth fell out. But I cant wait to let my teeth grow!

Oh really? Thats so cute. You youre so lovely

I dropped my head and covered my mouth with both hands.

To think that the dignified me lost my teeth

Well, I think being cute is better than being dignified, but its not hard to solve your problems anyway. But everything thats artificially grown is fragile. Your teeth can be lost forever then.

If I get an artificially grown tooth, it might break and my teeth will be lost forever.

Then what should I do?

I can make fake teeth until you grow up. Its an illusion, so your pronunciation will be the same, but others wont know its missing.

I want it please!

Veronica smiled brightly.

Ill do your request. But how will you repay me?

Of course, I held out my purse.

I brought you a lot of money!

Thatnot money

She glanced at me and wrapped her red cheeks.

I want to take a peek at your head!

.Veronica is as expected, not normal.

But thats the only way.

I nodded my head.

Good.

Wow-! Then lets get started!

Is it that easy to make fake teeth? Doesnt it take a lot of time?

No. I just need to use a medium. Its not that difficult as I just need to make the medium as an accessory and hang it on you. Well, I dont think any other mages can do it, though.

Veronica said while searching for the medium on her desk.

I dont know why people think its so hard. Young people are all idiots these days.

I could feel an 80 year old grandma in her.

Then I recalled the chairmans words.

You feel bad about Veronica Dubos? You seem to have misunderstood something

Did people think Veronicas appearance is terrifying because shes not old?

Not at all. Everyone didnt care. While Veronica is a fanatic for cute things.

But isnt she lonely?

Maybe. But Veronica is a very good mage. There wont be any mage who can exceed her knowledge and skills. People are reluctant to get closer to her

I held hands with Veronica thinking that we should get along well. Veronica was still searching on her desk.

No. Then theres nothing here. But little miss, we use that.

I became weak at the sight of the stone she pointed at.

Isnt that the ironclad dragon fossil she showed off earlier?

But thats very precious.

Its less important than you.

When she spoke with determination, she put the ironclad dragon fossil on her desk and said,

I need a few drops of blood, but since you have divine power, should I replace it with that? Because I dont want to hurt your cute hands.

I nodded and gave some divine power to the fossil.

Then, the place vibrated as if it was an earthquake.

Veronica was very confused and went to the window.

I dont think its an earthquake.

Meanwhile I was staring blankly into the air. When Veronica saw me she tilted her head.

Little miss?

.I,I need to go to the bathroom!

Its in the second room on the right side of the corridor.

I hurried out of the hall and into the room Veronica told me about.

Then I looked into the air again. To be precise, a beautiful person with long hair was floating in the air.

I am the ninth pillar, Pymon. Are you the one who called me out?

I was just trying to get my teeth grow a little faster, but I called out another devil instead.
