"Freyr, aren't you nervous?" Freyja asked as she grabbed Freyr's hand.

"A bit. But it will be okay," Freyr said with confidence.

Well, Freyr excelled more than Freyja in etiquette and mannerism due to his calm nature, so it was understandable how confident he was.

"There, there, just consider the others as carrots and you'll be fine," I gave an advice as I patted their backs.

"Uu...," Freyja held on to the hem of my dress tighter.

"Yes, we'll be fine, right, Nee-chan?" Freyr asked with a smile.

"Of course, who's your big sister after all?" I smiled back at him.

"Well, Lyra-nee has been praised from when she was young, so as her little brother and sister, we'll be fine," Freyr answered.

"...but, but, wouldn't I be made fun of if I'm not as good as Nee-chan? Wouldn't I make you ashamed, Nee-chan?" Freyja was still nervous.

I was about to open my mouth to give a long and heartfelt advice when...

"Freyr, Freyja, it's soon your time to shine!"

Alt-nii's voice could be heard. He was in charge of seeing the situation at the stage.

"Uuuuu," Freyja tried to straighten her posture.

With the limited time we had, I patted her back once more as I said, "Don't worry, just do your best. No matter what, you're a little sister I'm proud of. If anything happens, I'll be there for you."

Perhaps my encouragement worked as I saw her little back was straightened even more. Her timid body posture now seemed to be more confident.

"Good luck," I whispered to Freyr who quickly went to walk by his sister's side.

The pair of twins hooked their hands together as they walked to the stage of their debut.

Good luck, you two! ...Time flew by so fast, huh?

I still remember perfectly when they were first brought to the house.

As I sent off their backs like this, I thought to myself, 'Is this how a parent feels when they send off their child to school or to a new stage in life?'

Not wanting to skip the twins' introduction, I quickly went to the front of the stage, where Alt-nii and Rurune were waiting.

"Thank you for coming to my... our debut party. I'm Freyr Arcturus Hartmann, pleased to meet you. Please guide me and my twin sister well," Freyr seemed to have turned timid as he stood there looking at the eyes of the nobles which were on them.

As someone who had spent roughly 2 years with the twins, I could tell. I could see the subtle signs of their nervousness. Freyr's speech was so fluid (just one mistake was made) yet his eyes sometimes wavered. But still, he did a great job!

Next, Freyja stepped forward.

"I'm Freyja Artemyscha Hartmann... Pleased to make your acquaintances. And thank you for coming!" Freyja timidly said. Even her gesture was quite reserved and shy. When she was talking, she tried to take a glance at the nobles, but she couldn't help herself from casting her eyes downward for a while.

Even so, I could tell from the others' comments that they did well.

"Whoa, the twins of the Hartmann family are so cute!"

"Look how shy the girl is!"

"Even so, she still managed to introduce herself properly without crying or trembling! As expected of a duke's daughter!"
