Chapter 69 (2/2)

“Eh!?”

She voiced her shock involuntarily

‘Is Duke Zest…? Why?………Or maybe? Maybe it’s not him?’

She was extremely confused Nonetheless he approached and whispered to her ear

“Media-sama, I am a former adventurer I’m not a noble and I’m weaker than you”

‘Tasel? Why is he still in this room?’

He hugged her closer, as she was still fighting confusion

“I know about Media-sama’s circumstances”

She shook Tasel off and stared at hirily

He knows my circumstances? Then why did he come?……To make fun of me?

Did he co a man!?

She was burning with anger……But right in front of her, Tasel started to take off hisclothes

“What are you………”

What are you doing?

It’s what she was about to say, but she grew silent

No,

“It’s the first ti the same problem as me……I am a woman……But……”

She looked on, silently

She looked at Tasel’s body……She looked at that body which had the characteristics of a woman

“I a you as a man I am in love with you………Do you……Do you hate me as a woman?”

“………………No way!”

“It doesn’t matter to me that you’re a man I love you!”

“……………………”

“Media-sama, I really like you”

Tasel approached slowly and hugged Media closely

“Please tell me………Do you hate me as a woman?”

Media cried for a long time, as Tasel embraced her and continued to ask that question over and over again

It was the first time……It was the first time someone knew about her circumstances, but still acted like this Tasel still claimed he loved her

He told her that he’ll accept her even as aher closely

It was the first time

The first time she felt that she didn’t want to ever part from him

Two people entered the fortress’ office, which was recently transformed into Duke Zest’s room

“How co now?”

Zest earing the saentle smile as ever

They were holding their hands and they both wanted to convey to Zest the sa

“ “We are getting married!” “

They said and lowered their heads That’s when the words which exceeded their expectations got to their ears

“Congrats I’m happy for you And don’t worry, I’ll take care of the fine details Since I’ll be the mediator, I won’t let anyone coether!”

While watching Zest declare that to the, they both decided

That they’ll forever follow Duke Zest………That they’ll become his sword and shi+eld
