Chapter 32 (1/2)

I’lad I went for it

I was fit to burst with happiness, and only childlike thoughts like that were co to mind

“Your face is bright red”

“!”

When he pointed it out, I covered my face with both hands in a panic My cheeks were definitely hot If I were a stea off me

Sir Leonhard burst into laughter as he watched ainst my cheeks to the back of my hands

He’s terrible He was covering histo cover up with a cough when his act was already exposed!

“Youyourself…”

I couldn’t help it if I stared at him rather coldly

Trifling with the tender heart of a young girl in love was not permissible behavior just because he happened to be Sir Leonhard

“I’m sorry”

He readily apologized, but his eyes were laughing

I was struck by sudden understanding Had he always been slightly mean?

He asked questioned me from the opposite seat

“Do you dislike this side of me?”

“Not at all,” I replied instantly

Sir Leonhard gazed at me in wonder

It see my answer

Don’t get et teased, got it?! It was because he was different from Klaus and the others, he didn’t have a fetish like they did!

“I’ up appearances with me”

I truly was very happy to be able to see his true self

Young girls in love wasn’t a frivolous conversation, though…

“Excuse the proximity”

“What?”

Hed stood up from his seat and settled beside me

His handsoht next to me, and I stared with my mouth open

S-so close…!!

In contrast to how I’d turned to stone fro nerves, Sir Leonhard was in coaze dropped down to the e of seriousness itself

I became ashamed of my of shaken co of my heart to Settle down, down!

“You were saying the disease spread from the south, but do you know the exact location?”

“I don’t know for certain, but…I’d like to say south-southwest Close to the national border with our neighbors in the Kingdom of Vind”

Taking radually calmed down

After sucking in a deep breath, I turned my attention to the map

At the heart of a giant continent shaped like one side of a bird’s as reat weather, the peninsular portion that jutted out at the bottom was tropical in nature Even to the north, warreat portion of it, and the only area where snow fell in a notable density was in the northernes
