The street was filled with people walking to and fro, as well as stalls

The letter said:

〈Please co anyone else〉

In addition to that, theplace was at the southern district where athered Therefore, a lot of churches were built in this district

What does she want? Ares couldn't help but think about that along the way

[No, I haven't… I headed out very early in the ood that I ca so, Cornelia opened a s

[I have made this for breakfast Would you like to sit on that bench as we eat it?]

Ares and Cornelia sat on one of the benches by the streetside as they began eating the sandwiches Cornelia hadsome casual talk

Ares was already amazed earlier

He never expected that the princess would go to such a place alone

Let alone the same princess to prepare a meal by herself

When Ares expressed all that, Cornelia inally a priestess working for the church That was until she met Esteemed Father They both loved each other But iven birth toin the church]

Ares was surprised by this revelation But Cornelia wasn't finished yet

[When I was about to be 10 years old… my mother died from an epidemic Before she died, she told me and the others of ht nized me and even declared htly saddened face

[That is why instead of eating fine cuisine inside a luxuriousoutside like this]

Then she looked at Ares with a worried look

[…do you think it is weird… for me to act like that as a princess?]

[No]

Ares replied after he finished one sandwich that he was cheith his mouth

[Not at all I honestly like you even better this way]

Hearing that answer, Cornelia laughed

[Really just as the report says]

[Report?]

[En After my elder sister introduced us, I took the initiative to do soation]

After Silvia introduced Cornelia to Ares, Cornelia quickly investigated just what kind of man Ares is The result… was beyond her expectations

[I was surprised when I heard that you were involved with the side the people there as a bouncer for a time]

Ares was surprised that the Elean that ether with the soldiers and enjoyed buying and eating snacks sold in the street food stalls… there are certainlyless from the Empire's information network]

[Pardon me if that side each other from now on, so I would like to knowsaid so, Cornelia stared at Ares with a serious look

[Everytis about you, I would only feel that I want to know even more At the same time, I hope that you also coed to Ares-sama have shared somehistory with you… but that is not the case with me]

[…hnn? No, but…]

[Fufufu, did I sound a bit pushy just now?]

Cornelia resumed after a short chuckle

[But that is ap even a little before our e arrives So today… I want to spend time with you astheto Cornelia's direction And their next destination was…

(eh? Isn't this the church where Cecil works?)

[Bishop Griffith, good ]

[Cornelisama, you arrive earlier than usual today And this man with you is… eh? Ares-sama?]

[………Cecil, do you two know each other?]

[Yes, since a long ti smile

[I was raised by Cornelisama's mother She's pretty much aged to Ares-sama, I was… pleasantly surprised]

[When my mother passed away, it was Bishop Griffith who helped me]

Cornelia quietly smiled

[I was there when Cornelisama's mother revealed that she was of the Imperial bloodline… I feared that she would be used for bad things if the neere to spread further, but thankfully it worked out somehow]

[…how come you never told me about this before?]
