Chapter 136 : To Pershion Kingdom (1) (1/2)
Roan hurried his preparations to leave
But that didn’t ht to the Pershi+on Kingdo with the newly born Tale Legion
‘I must make all the preparations at there’
It would be troublesome if Second Prince Tommy Rinse or Third Prince Kallum Rinse’s factions become suspicious of his actions
Due to that, each and every action of his was careful
Then
“My lord You have a guest”
Onil’s voice, asthe te, he continued to speak
“It’s Princess Aily”
Tuk
The hands, which werebusily to clean up the office, abruptly stopped
Brushi+ng off the dust on his clothes, Roan walked towards the door
“Where is she?”
“She is in the uide her to the reception roo cleaned up, so it is quite dusty”
Roan nodded slowly at Onil’s words
His feet kept ht, and then stepped back and lowered his head
Not noticing hiarden
“Ah……”
A quiet exclamation naturally came out
At a shade canopy located at one side of the garden
Princess Aily Rinse was underneath it
She, in a plain dress, looked so graceful and relaxed that only the time around her seemed to floly
“Princess”
“Ah, Sir Baron Tale”
Meeting each other’s eyes, the ted their heads
Roan, with a soft voice, politely asked
“What bring you all the way here?”
Aily showed a cheerful smile that those words as she replied
“I heard that you’ll be leaving soon So I caoodbye”
“Ah…… thank you very ly let out a quiet excla……’
He was siht
No, instead of leaving he had thought of it as ‘returning’ to the Tale Barony
But
‘Leaving is right At least in this situation……’
Leaving and returning
The feelings the tords gave were too different
Roan wordlessly stared into Aily’s eyes
Lights holding unexplainable feelings met and flowed between their eyes
‘Ah……’
Aily soon shyly shtly lowered her head
“I pray that only good things will happen to you from now on”
Roan nodded his head and replied
“I too will pray that princess will only be happy”
At those words, Aily snickered and hid her sht hand
“It’s as if we’re people saying their last farewells”
“Is it?”
Roan asked back as he cheerfully s for a moment, he carefully continued his words
“I will make sure to come visit once if I co”
Aily immediately answered but then prohly surprised look
‘What do you ?’
Her heart loudly jumped
Roan, as he watched her, unconsciously e appeared in his heart
“And if you are fine with it, please come visit the Tale Baro……”
When he had spoke to that point
“My lord”
He heard confident voice
A truly familiar voice to the ears
It was Clay
“Hm”
Roan couldn’t quite finish his words and turned his head to look at Clay
Clay first greeted towards Aily and then looked at Roan
“The preparations are complete”
It was a report that the preparations to head towards the Tale Barony were finished
“Okay I got it”
Roan lightly nodded his head
Clay looked back and forth between Roan and Aily for aa respectful farewell
“Is that person perhaps Clay?”
With a cautious voice, Aily asked
In the capital, Miller, Roan’s subordinates also spread their fame as much as Roan
Especially his adjutant Austin; Harrison; Brian, as the kingdoh expectations; and Clay, who joined a bit late but showed outstanding and excelling schemes and unique plans, were notably famous
Roan looked towards the direction Clay disappeared to and nodded
“Yes He is”
At those words, Aily wavered with a slightly hesitant look then carefully spoke with a quiet voice
“Although it’s true that he is a person with outstanding talent…… please don’t give him all of sir Baron’s trust”
“What do you mea……?”
As Roan hesitated his words, Aily formed a bitter smile
“To me, Clay’s heart can’t be seen I can’t tell whether its inside is black, or white This kind of case is…”
Her expression slightly turned stiff
“A first”
“Hroan
He couldto say
‘Don’t trust him too much, is it……’
Roan slowly nodded his head
“Princess’s words, I’ll bear it in mind”
Aily wordlessly lowered her head
‘Clay A person whose heart couldn’t be seen……’
Her eyes for looking at people were indisputable
That wasn’t a sort of instinct
‘It’s the first time I’ve experienced this since I earned this power’
Her heart felt heavy
Aily held her sether and deeply inhaled
‘There is a need to keep watch Some kind of probleht filled her head
Her heart felt even heavier
Then
“Thank you for worrying about me”
She heard Roan’s voice
Suddenly, the oppressing feelings that filled her head and heart disappeared as if it was a lie
“Huu”
A sigh of relief pushed through her small red lips and flew out shortly
There was a strange power in Roan’s voice
The kind that relaxed people’s hearts and make them happy
Aily didn’t know it yet, of course, but that was so that only applied to her
For a while, Roan and Aily stared at each other without saying any words
No, there was no need to speak
The two’s feelings were passed to each other as if they were absorbed
Like that, Roan and Aily promised of the next time and parted
Roan prepared meticulously for one more day, and headed towards the Tale Barony as soon as the sky brightened
Simon and the nobles who follow him ca thatelse were the castle’s residents ere lined up following the street and all the way out of the gate
They, to Roan who looked after the in the capital unlike the other nobles, held strong feelings of gratitude and respect
Until Roan and the Tale Legion’s soldiers couldn’t be seen, the castle’s citizens clapped and cheered at them
From the north that they left, a cold wind blew
A chilly northern wind
The season was now entering winter
