The man who suddenly appeared before me and started introducing himself was someone named "Finn."


    As I debated how best to turn down the conversation, he prattled on as if I had given him permission to speak.


    “…Furthermore, my spear skills have proven effective not only inbat against monsters but also in duels against other warriors. If you were to employ me in the ckwood territory, I could assist in addressing various public safety issues…”


    “Ah, I’m sorry, but now isn’t a good time. Could you discuss employment matters with Ethanter?”


    “Oh, um… sure. Then I’ll speak with the Young Lord ckwood next time…”


    “No, please speak directly with Ethan about this. I really must go…”


    Feeling a spine-chilling sense of urgency, I hastily ended the conversation with Finn.


    Although Ethan was still upied with a meeting and hadn’t arrived at the banquet yet, I couldn’t shake the thought that he might somehow be watching me from afar.


    If I had to endure an unavoidable conversation that triggered the switch, I wouldn’tin—but being caught in this situation with a character who isn’t even a named extra felt unfair.


    “Good evening, Lady Rosewood. I am Ben from the Swordsmanship Club. We’ve met a few times during Professor Harold’s magic swordsmanship lessons…”@@novelbin@@
