44 Episode 43: Visit to the House of the Duke of Magenta (Part I) (2/2)
Bye, Ababa!? That's what Yufi says again! Yufi's got a little lip pointy, and Mrs. Nerschel's laughing like she's in her bump. What is this?
Where Mrs Nerschel exhaled, laughing strangely for a while, she cuts out the subject.
”Is it to explore spiritual covenants that we examine the formation of spirits?”
”Right. Because there are so many ambiguous expressions, such as the terms and qualifications of spiritual contracts.”
”Right. I hear spiritual contractors have a lot of unique sensibilities.”
”Have you also met Mrs. Nerschel with a spiritual contractor in our country?
Speaking of which, I was wondering. If your father knew you, Mrs. Nerschel would have met you.
”I've seen him before, but not when he tells me he's close. Yeah, it's just a coincidence of interest.”
”Is it a match of interest?
”... I'm glad you actually met to confirm that. In my opinion, I'm sure it won't be bad.”
Mmm, what a strange rhetoric. I wonder if the idea of a match of interest is as if we're having feelings for each other. It seems like some kind of pale relationship though.
”Speaking of which, wasn't today's visit just about the paper?
”Yep. I haven't been face-to-face with Caindkun before, so I thought I'd talk to him properly. He said that Uffi was still avoided.”
”Oh, and that kid too... He used to say everyday that if Yuffi were to be queen, he would support his sister so that he wouldn't be ashamed to be the Duke's head...”
Given Lord Grants' position, it is a story that is uncomfortable if you think you will take over afterwards. However, if that person to serve treated my beloved sister unreasonably, I can't help but doubt it.
I hope today it leads to unwrapping that pan. I guess I won't know that until I see you face to face. As far as my previous reputation is concerned, I don't think he's a bad kid.
”Shall we call it now?
”If you like, please”
I nod at Mrs Nerschel's suggestion, looking sideways at the slightly nervous faceted Uffi.
Have a cup of tea as I escort the butler out of the room at Mrs Nerschel's direction.
”By the way, are you going to tell Cain that you and Yufi are in love?
”Blah blah.”
I accidentally swallowed it. That's all you've got today!? Shame on Yufi for gently rubbing my back. Yay, sad one. Whatever it is, breathe and cough.
”........................... Honestly, what do you think of same-sex and romance?
”Considering it's not common, and the position of the two of you, are you thinking about how you can handle inheritance? And that makes me nervous.”
”That's right...”
After all, that problem cannot be avoided. I need to do something someday, but honestly, I don't want to think about it. That's true of me myself, and I don't like that Ufi can do those kinds of opponents.
I'm also thinking about adopting a child, but that doesn't mean there's no problem. The roundest thing is to get a proper son-in-law when you get to the throne. Oh, I have a headache and a heavy temper.
”If we're going to get away with it, we have to do one of the reprimands, but if we're going to solve each other's problems, I'm not going to tell you anyway.”
”... thank you. I still want to be happy with Yufi.”
”Oh, well. Thank you again for your daughter.”
”Yes.”
If I am carefully bowed my head, I also have to correct my posture and reply. I wonder if it was my fault that Mrs. Nerschel, who raised her head, seemed somewhere relieved.
”But I didn't think Princess Anisphere looked alike... but she's the Queen's daughter.”
”Yes?”
”He was admired by the same sex, too, right? His Majesty Orphans, it was a straight line, so I stayed only admired by the far-winded.”
”Oh, I can see that somehow. It's good to take care of her, isn't it, Mother?”
Then Princess Anisphere inherited it.
”Is that so...”
But my mother also had such a past, which attracts a bit of interest. Next time, I wanted to hear about your fathers. I've drawn a line somewhere before and I've never even heard of it in private...
I heard a knock when I was a little blurry. There are signs of people coming from across the door. Is the butler back?
”Ma'am, I've brought Lady Caind”
”Come in.”
Immediately after Mrs. Nerschel's reply, the door opens and one boy enters the room.
My first impression is he's a luxurious boy. Or farsighted, I'm going to lose track of my gender. If we get closer, we'll know it's a boy.
And he looks so neat. The hair colour is silver hair conceded by Mrs. Nerschel, and the colour of the eyes is in deep but vibrant red tea. Yufi was also a tough beauty, but Kaindo is also a beauty with different hairs. I get a soft impression somewhere compared to Yufi.
It's just the intensity of the eye that makes that impression misty, too. Can't blood contend, I feel a strong gaze of pressure. What, do the Dukes of Magenta want to beam it out of their eyes?
”Excuse me, Mother. Caind, I'm here now.”
”Caind, Princess Anisphere has asked to see you. Say hello.”
Caindo-kun moves in and out of my way, prompted by Mrs. Nerschel. Kneel and drool your head as you take your benefactor's gratitude. I have zero breath of admiration without thinking about pretty sophisticated behavior. The boulder is only a trace of the house of the Duke of Magenta.
”It's Caindo Magenta. It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness.”
”It's Anisphere Win Palettia. It's good to see you today. I am doing well for your sister, and your parents. Keep your head up.”
I was about to be in princess mode too. Somehow, you mean you get tight? Kaindo-kun is even more remarkable, although it is something that Yufi felt. I'm going to embarrass this one if I don't be somewhat cautious.
Take my word for it. Kaindo-kun is turning his gaze straight at me. I honestly don't know if I'm just staring or staring because of the pressure of that gaze...... no its really hard to understand Duke of Magenta house!?
”I wanted to get closer to you today and solve your misunderstandings.”
”… misunderstanding, is it”
Wow, I'm scared. My voice pointed sharply like a blade. You look just like Lord Grants in these places!
Keep a loving laugh on your back as you accidentally get a cold sweat coming out of you. Have you been intimidated by younger people lately? Isn't that strange? Me, the princess, right? I don't think it's majestic or anything! I feel something irrational about the world!
”The misconception is that you can explain Prince Algard's actions against his sister from the break-up of his engagement to today?
”No, I'm really sorry about that my brother...”
I'm sorry, too. Come on! I have no sympathy for Al, but come on! It's time for me to get mad too, isn't it?!? It's more or less an Al Kun butt wipe!?
Caindo-kun's gaze will grow stronger on the words of apology that have come out of his grudge. This is scary......! I feel Lord Grants' blood muscles......!
”... what will royalty do with his head so easily bowed? Are you going to admit no?
”It's an informal place, so miss it. Yeah, I'm gonna let you go vegan from here, but I'm really sorry about Yuffi's breakup.”
I would like to emphasize that this is only an informal place. I do know how easy it is to say that royalty shouldn't bow its head.
The air seemed to get tingly nervous. Caindo-kun is the cause of that. Yeah, now you're pre-adult...? You have too much style......
”... If you're saying it's informal, can you say something from me, too?
”Go ahead. I came here today to take your grievances, your grievances without any further ado. You can say whatever you want. I can't listen to insults to the royal family, but if they're to me, I'll listen to them. Don't worry about it.”
I can't be fooled by intimidation. Because if we don't hang on here, Yufi and Kaindo-kun might make up for it a long way back. Sometimes it's a virtue not to talk, but this time if you're firmly dissatisfied, you have to talk!
”Now, let me be frank. The royal family wonders what my sister's devotion is.”
”It's really royal about that, or a form involving Ufi in the circumstances of me and Al Kun. If you want to bow your head, it's me and Al, not the royal family. Yufi's been trying so hard for me. Now you're with me as my assistant, but I'm helped by the extraordinary.”
”... isn't that just convenient to use your sister?
”... Caind, even though it's too much for you to forgive me.”
What, hey!? Why are you shouting like that low roar all the way to Ufi!?
Or that the pressure on each other's gaze is too strong! My spine!! I'm scared!!
”Sister.”
”I serve Lord Anis of my own free will. As for Master Algard, it's because of his impudence that I couldn't save your heart without. There's a lot of difference between the royal family trying to use me.”
”My sister herself does. But I don't see her around. If you don't show it in a way that you know, you won't be able to convince your surroundings.”
”So for that reason, I'm helping Anise to contribute to magic.”
”Is it magic, magic... Is that really research for the country? I do not deny the achievement itself. But isn't that idea too much for this country?
... Ooh, that's a heartbreaking word for Mr. Anisphere, Kaindo.
I'm used to that because they've been saying it for a long time. Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
”Certainly, Master Anis' magic is something original. It will take time to penetrate both among the people and among the nobles. And that's what we need to do.”
”My sister is responsible for that,” he said?
”That's all magic is worth. And it's worth serving Master Anis as well. I will continue to appeal aloud, no matter who denies it.”
... That's crazy. Me, I was supposed to be here to make up for these two. Why are they all staring at each other in a fight...? Me, something wrong...?
