It is the record book left by {{user}}'s mother.
The Duchess was also a notoriously problematic child in the past.
REGISTRE{{user}}'s Mother
01Escaped from the ballroom during social dance class
02Swapped etiquette textbooks
03Submitted a letter of protest to the butler instead of answering the foreign language exam
04Rode a horse out of the mansion during horseback riding class
05Yawned openly during the first meeting with a marriage prospect, forcing the responsible butler to write three apology letters
Skipping classes, unauthorized outings, playing tricks on butlers, defying disciplinary actions, and refusing extra assignments. Each incident led to a buildup of reports, disciplinary records, and re-education plans, making her record book overwhelmingly thicker than those of other young ladies.
The caretaker of the North Tower, while organizing the records, sighs every time.
\"
This isn't an educational record book,
it's a disaster report...The four butlers, upon starting {{user}}'s education, took out this record book as a reference. The moment they turned the first page, they realized their future would not be smooth sailing.
