Chapter 24-25 (2/2)
I finally graduated after great pains I became a Squire and two years later, I turned twenty years old Even though I became a Squire, I am haunted by my social status It is to the extent that I cannot count the unjustified fault-findings froht Leader is not concerned with social status It was ive promotions to capable personnels
I did not want to be deemed as someone who cannot accomplish his job, so I exerted effort more than anyone else
Therefore, I despaired the moment I was told to become the personal attendant of the Ee
That day, I was told by ht Leader’s rooood or bad thing
I don’t recallht Leader’s roo uneasy
I confirmed an answer from inside and entered the room
“This is Elias Torazash I was informed you called for me”
I saluted to the ht Leader Eckart
“Sorry for calling when you are busy I summoned you since I had an earnest favor to ask Well, sit down”
“Excuse me,” I sat in the sofa in front of Sir Eckart I felt a little relieved when it see to be reprimanded
“Well then, you are aware that Emperor Leo invited an Empress Consort this time I want to ask you to look after the personal needs of the Empress Consort”
Is he telling h I aht for the sake of the country and the Emperor? I felt weak from too much shock
“I do not have any experience on taking care of another person I also did not study for so like that”
I put up resistance at the very least Did he judged ht?
“Sorry My words were insufficient I aht The Empress has special circumstances so I want to place only trustworthy people near her Therefore, while I say you will be taking care of her needs, your uard I cannot speak any ree to accept this job, but I think no one is even more suitable for this job than you, Elias Please, will you accept it?”
I becoo Since Sir Eckart said that much, I had no reason to decline
“Thank you veryme to that extent I will accept that mission”
“I believed you will say so Well then, I will begin to talk in detail right away, but telling others what I will say after this is absolutely prohibited If it ever leaked outside, be aware that you can only apologize with your own neck”
After that, Sir Eckart talked about an unbelievable story
Who would coender to become a bride?
“Shane-sae Please, I want you to offer her support nearby By all rights, a man must not be allowed to serve as the Empress Consort’s attendant but it would be unwise to appoint a woht be unable to conceal alone s up skillfully if that happens Fortunately, Shane-sama has a chronic disease and has to have medicine delivered from her homeland once a month Because of it, your existence is overco happens, a female attendant will not be able to correspond to it with her weak strength You may be subject to criticisms once you start this ence and of course, your skills in ave you this request I’ on you”
“Yes I will devote myself to the best of my abilities”
I stood up and saluted
It’s a princess of a country Just thinking what sort of arrogant noble lady he would be is terrifying but since Sir Eckart asked this far, I decided to accomplish it by all costs
Finally, the day of Shane-sa mood and enthusiasm overflowed ood day
For this day, I was taught about the job by the ency, I also received sword training directly from Sir Eckart There were people fros but I finally developed awareness of my own position so nowadays, I feel like they’re just the fluttering of insects
Shane-sae was delivered earlier than his arrival I was suprised at its scarcity I heard that a normal princess would make one room collapse froe is not even worth one carriage
Above all, they included two potted plants with leaves that give off a nice fragrance It indeed gave the impression of a native of “Capital of Flowers”
When I diligently brought in the luggage to the rooether with a petite woman, entered the room
“Elias, this is Princess Shane”
If Lord Kristoff did not inform me in a low voice, I wouldn’t have noticed at all
I expected that no matter how much he looked like a woman, in some ways, there will be some parts of him that will make it clear he’s a ives the feeling that he’s male
And what suprised me above all, was that he was polite to an attendant likeme take care of her personal needs
There was not the slightest arrogant attitude I expected Rather, I ended up feeling asha addressed too politely
Shane-sa with His Majesty When I proposed that he can ease up in front of entle words
“I’lad he is the Empress Consort,” it seemed natural to think so when I saw that smile
Since then, drinking tea with Shane-sa about Shane-sa about each of our countries It seeht from her homeland can be brewed into a drink called “herb” tea
“Let’s drink together when it grows up,” we promised each other
I a forward to it from now on
I still do not have the kind of loyalty where I ager anything to serve Shane-saing from Shane-sama’s personality
Contrary to what I expected, this kind of lifeeither
