Chapter 192 – …………ONLY ME (1/2)

CHAPTER 192 – …………ONLY ME

In the Summer Palace of the royal capital Rethim.

I am resting there.

The night garden that could be seen from my room looked magical. I have visited many palaces since I came to this world, but this place is the most beautiful.

「It’s as if a sky garden」

『The King at that time used wealth as if it grows on trees』

「Grows on trees? How much exactly?」

『About half a year’s worth of national budget』

「That’s amazing. To think that someone would go that far. It was made for the queen at that time, if I’m correct?」

『Umu. She was a beautiful woman, but she always wore an expressionless face. That King did many things for her just to see her smile. So, he made this place. And for the first time since that queen was married to him, she smiled after seeing this view』

「The queen’s smile is worth half a year’s national budget huh. Quite amazing」

『That is what men of power are』

「I see」

Recently, I feel like the contents of the stories in the past I hear from Eleanor had changed.

When we had just met, she usually talks about the heroes or overlords, the men that she ‘used to death’, and speak ill of them.

That’s that not case recently. She started to talk about interesting things about the actual things that happened, things which were not written in history.

And her tone when she speaks about them started to be like ‘what a helpless bunch’.

『……』

Eleanor fell silent. Is she remembering about the past?

I want to learn about that past a little, I thought.

But, now is not the time for that.

I have a previous engagement.

「Shou……」

I heard a voice from behind.

It’s Selene’s voice.

I was waiting for here.

She returned to Rethim and took back the Aegina Kingdom.

The war has ended. Of course, there are things waiting to be done after that, but the matter is settled for the time being.

And there, I came to take her.

I decided to make her my woman.

When I told her that, she told me to wait in this Summer Palace, so I was waiting for her.

I looked back to Selene who had come.

She is wearing a dress.

A dress suitable for a princess, one that is both elegant and sexy.

A dress that shows just enough skin, showing the places that she wants to show, but hiding the places that must not be seen.

A dress that makes a man impossible not to react with.

Of course, Selene is very beautiful too, raising the destructive powers of the dress.

……that is fine, but.

「Why is Helene with you?」

Helene is beside Selene.

She looks just as usual but with a wry smile while holding the fan I gave her.

「U-Uhm, you know. I-I’m going to be having……s-sex with Shou right now, but!」
