“Say, Leon Aren’t there any hidden passages we can be using?”

Hidden passages, huh

Sure enough it looks like there would be some

Hm, for example inside that fireplace over there

”there are There’s no choice since this is a state of eency Don’t tell anyone about this, Aren”

“I kno, hurry, hurry”

And without delay Leon-sa with the fireplace

Ah, I was spot on

Having activated a button or so similar a klick could be heard and the inner wall of the fireplace opened

“Fuu, it opened This pathway connects to two locations The first is the outside of the castle, the other is the audience hall It ends in a place somewhat hidden by a curtain For now let’s head to the audience hall and ascertain the situation”

Thus the three of us headed towards the audience hall

The order was Leon-sama in front, then Aren-sama and last me

It’s not like I could be walking in front because I didn’t know the way

I hoped that no pursuers would be following us into this place

While staying alert about what lied behind us I had so

“Aren-sa but would it be alright to ask so?”

“Yes! If it’s a question fro! Now then, please do tell!”

It hted?

He was looking forhile walking so I didn’t see his face, but his voice was really bright

“Ano, the Duke tried to make your elder sister Anjiu-sama into Leon-sama’s bride, didn’t he? In that case, ould he start a revolt with this tiuess but the Duke should be aware that ement has been broken off”

“Hst idiot, but his official stance is pretty ood of the country The one who had taught me all what had happened to you from Leon’s side was him And apparently, that is exactly the reason as well In short, would be country be alright in the future with a prince like that? – that is”

‘Ufu’

Leon-sa in on our conversation almost toppled over for a moment

Well, it was quite the harsh evaluation after all

“Oi, Leon, are you alright? Eh? ‘It’s fine, let’s just go’ you say Yes yes, I know Anyhere was I? Ah, right The reason why is is starting a revolt right now It’s probably because he realised that it would be difficult to make Anjiu into Leon’s bride As expected, I don’t know any more details than that Sorry Still, the issue of the cancelling of the engagement I have reported to that idiot father Since I was the one trying to implement it, after all”

Fuement matter

That means the one who had hired those masked men that had appeared on my way back to the territory was

“Thank you veryme”

“No no, I would do any request froht”

There’s no need to guess but hasn’t he completely become attached to me?

I can kind of see an illusionary tail

One that is shaking like immensely

After walking for a while Leon-sama stopped

&ld

quo;If we turn around at this corner we’ll be at the audience hall soon First, I’ll go have a look so you wait here”

Leon-sao alone?

Will that be alright?

Me and Aren-sama waited for Leon-sama’s return in silence

A few minutes later he returned

With a dispirited face

“Hoas it, Leon?”

“AahFather and Mother have been detained, it seeot injured but ”
