Chapter 276 - Ive had enough (1/2)
Kazuya sighed and reached over to gently kiss her lips, ”I am jealous about Rhys, but that's not why I was avoiding you. I'll do anything to keep you safe so..”
”Dummy, I told you not to get involved..”
Kazuya however only continued to laugh, until they hear somebody call her name. It was Rhys, ah…
”I have to go now Lyn, but I'll be in the training grounds all day, you can drop by.”
”Um wait, it's not what you think…”
He reached over and ruffled her hair, ”I trust you, don't worry.”
Lyn gave him a light kiss on the cheek before she walked off. It didn't take her long before she reached where Rhys was, she immediately hit him, but Rhys caught her hands.
”You did that on purpose.”
”Yeah.”
Jerk… Her thoughts broke off when she felt Rhys gently caress her hands, ”You have to stop being so violent, your pretty hands will get hurt.”
”...What's for lunch?”
Rhys lips curved to a smile, ”Something nice.”
”You say it's something nice, but isn't it something you like?”
…..
Training grounds
Lyn peeked through the door; she heard from Pupillam that all the knights are training here today. Kazuya mentioned it too. She wonders if she can catch a glimpse of Kazuya. Kazuya always looks very cool when he is training. A deep sigh passed her lips when she recalled what Rhys said to her earlier. It's not like that,
”Ah…”
Kazuya laughed, ”What are you doing?”
”I wanted to see you for a bit,” she looked around. ”Is it a bad time?”
”We were taking a break. Want to join?”
Her eyes lit up, ”Okay!” Kazuya squeezed her hand and brought her inside. Lyn was fully aware of how many states they were generating. Now that she thought about it, Pupillam also warned her about this too didn't she?
'From now on, more and more people will be looking at you. More people will notice you. Princess Lyn, please be more mindful of your actions…'
Lyn suddenly froze, wouldn't it be bad if this turned into a rumor? She can't carelessly walk around hand in hand with Kazuya anymore. While the majority already knew, it probably isn't a good example in front of the new Knights… But it was already far too late to change her mind since Kazuya was dragging her inside.
”Princess! What are you doing here?” a female voice exclaimed. Lyn turned and spotted a familiar face.
Lyn laughed, ”Uh, I wanted to rest.”
Pupillam sighed, ”Well, alright, but just for a bit. Wear this cloak around you too; everybody is all sweaty and smelly…”
Katn sighed, ”Hey, you're sweating, too, you know.”
”I'm a girl.”
Ah, it seems like Pupillam is getting along with everybody here. Lyn was slightly worried since Pupillam is the only female Knight in this group.
Kazuya brought her over to where his friends were. ”Woahh, he brought the Princess.”
Lyn noticed that there were other people here too. Knights wearing black clothes. Ah, ”Allen's…?”
The one in the center smiled, ”Pleased to meet you, Princess Lyn. I'm lord Ash from the family.”
”It's a pleasure to meet you,” Lyn replied as politely as she could. However, she felt a sudden shudder, just looking at the man's face. What is it with this uneasy feeling? He's on their side and yet...
Her thoughts broke off when she hears a loud sound and turned to the direction of the door.
It was Allen, after what happened the previous night. She didn't want to see him. He walked across the room to where their group was. ”Sir Ash, what do you think you're doing?” Allen addressed the man who had just been speaking with her.
”Training.”
”I believe we already assigned you an official post. You do not need to be here.”
