Chapter 99: Chapter 99
When the princess bowed to the crown prince and got in the wagon, the delegation of the Lua kingdom, including Sir Lars from the empire, also climbed into their wagons and horses. As the start signal went off, the wagons slowly began to move.
‘Congratulations, Sir Lars! That’s great, Princess Frincia! I thought I couldn’t see you again, but I will see you sooner or later. I wish you peace until we reunite.’
After I wished her well and turned my head, most of the people already left the place.
I could see Carsein standing blankly in the empty place. He seemed to have been surprised to see the unexpected behavior of his brother Sir Lars, who was always reticent and blunt.
Was it because Sir Lars didn’t tell Carsein anything?
“Carsein?”
“…. ”
“Carsein?”
“…Huh? Ah, did you call me? ”
“Yes. Almost everyone left. Let’s go back now. ”
Carsein looked back at me with a blank expression and shook his head violently.
Then he shook off idle thoughts about his brother and stared at me intensely.
When I stepped back at that, he came to me with a meaningful smile.
“What’s wrong, Carsein?”
I stammered a bit, embarrassed by his sudden approach, but he raised my hand, ignoring my question. His red hair falling down her bowed head tickled the back of my hand.
“Beautiful lady, would you give me a chance to serve you?”
“Hey, Carsein?”
Carsein smiled, straightening up. His blue eyes were full of mischievous laughter.
“Hey, are you surprised? ”
“…. ”
“Oh, you were thrilled, my little girl! Well, I know I am handsome and cool.”
“…What the heck are you doing? I was surprised.”
When I responded with an upset voice as if I was teased, he reached out to dishevelled my hair and said, “Well, I thought you were hoping for something like this because you looked at the princess with envy.”
“Are you kidding me?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. Are you upset, my little girl?”
“I’m not a little girl!”
“The fact that you were mad at my word, ‘little girl,’ means you are a little girl.”
He laughed out aloud and dishevelled my hair once again.
‘Dang it!’
He messed up my neatly tied hair. When I opened my eyes wide and stared at him, he laughed once again and reached out to me.
“Let’s go now. We will be late. ”
“…Okay. ”
Following Carsein, I was about to turn towards the knights building when I saw the young man with blue hair walking away to the inner palace in the distance. The princess’s delegation left long ago, so I thought he already left. What did he do until now?
‘Maybe he had something to do.’
By the way, what am I supposed to do today? I did all the paperwork yesterday, so I think I can practice all day long today. Deciding to learn new fencing skills from Carsein today, I headed to the knights building with Carsein.
“Hi, Tia. You didn’t forget your appointment today, right? ”
