Chapter 24
“Madame, your skin is fine.”
“Really?”
“Yes, it’s soft and white.”
Shameful of the rustling sound of maids wiping her body, she looked down. Her face turned red when she found a tingling mark on her chest.
The marks that seemed to be traces of last night spread throughout the body. When she imagined that the maids would have seen this, she felt ashamed.
“Madam, are you hot?”
As the heat from his face spread down, Pillen’s question reached her.
“I guess I’ve been in the bathroom too long. It’s a little hot.”
She fanned himself with an excuse.
“Madame, clothes are ready. I’ll dress you, so you don’t get cold.”
“Oh, before that.”
The maid’s hand stopped as she tried to bring clothes to Molitia. She looked at Molitia curiously.
“I’m sure there’s a bottle in my luggage, and why don’t you bring it?”
“What kind of bottle?”
“It’s a bottle of opaque white liquid.”
“Okay.”
She left the bathroom and soon reappeared with a bottle in her hand.
“Is this the one you asked for?”
“Yes.”
Molitia received the lotion from the maid. As the thick liquid shook in the bottle, Lili couldn’t stand it and groaned with curiosity.
“What is this?”
“It’s applied to the body.”
“If you are applying it on your body, are you referring to perfume? If that’s the case, we have prepared them in advance with the highest quality.”
“It’s not perfume.”
Molitia, who’s always in a bed, could not wear perfume. There was a disadvantage of not lying on the bed immediately after applying the liquid perfumed oil. When the blanket got dirty, it was easy just to wash it, but the Count, who didn’t give her any attention, didn’t notice her unclean blanket.
But moisturizing was essential for her, who was only lying in bed. The delicate skin was prone to roughness. She couldn’t leave her skin that way, and only after reading countless books did she find a way.
Fortunately, the ingredients were easy to find, and while people gave her a stinging glare, she could get it through a maid. At times like this, even though she was getting a glare at home, she knew how lucky she was to be a noble.
It was the liquid in the hand that made it so. The exact name is lotion. The memory of reading the words that they use the lotion in a country where the sun is much more intense than here came to mind.
“If you apply it on the body, it absorbs quickly.”
“Oh, really?”
Molitia took out a certain amount of liquid spilled into her hand, leaving Lili surprised. When she applied it to Lili’s hands as a demonstration, the greasy gloss glistened for a while, but it didn’t feel like it would flow down as oil did.
“Oh my!”
Lili raised her hand in small admiration. Her hands, which had become smoother as if her skin tone had cleared up, smelled a little like a rose.
“Is it scented?”
“Yes, I mixed the water from the rose.”
The scent might not last longer than oil perfume, but the moisturizing power was incomparable.
“What a good thing. I should ask the maid to order this instead of perfume. Ma’am, do you know where they sell this?”
“It’s not for sale.”
“Yes?”
Lilly grumbled sadly. Her eyes were glued to the lotion as she liked it. At the passionate attention, Molitia hesitated a little and slowly opened her mouth.
“…because I made it.”
“Madame?” (Maids)
At the eyes of the maids, who opened their eyes wide in surprise, Molitia’s cheeks slightly reddened. The Nobel spirit
needed to make it herself. This minor worry grew in Molitia’s mind that the
maids might fuss about it.
“You’re a genius! How did you come up with all the ideas to make this?”
However, her worries melted away when Lili said that with a purely amazed glare in her eyes.
Lili looked at her moist hands for a long time, even though the lotion had seeped in.
“If you liked it so much, would you like one?”
“Really?”
But Lili bit her tongue quickly.
“Oh, no. How can I covet your things……”
