Vol 17 Chapter 341 (2/2)
There, the Third scratched his head as he looked towardswoman I’m sure she was his wife As he looked at me, he made a fed-up expression
The Third though a bit and opened his mouth
“Hah, Lyle… honestly, that battle back there was interesting I’d never thought you’d be able toWhen you’re not even mr lyle, the true Best Lyle… was Lyle himself!”
He stuck up his thumb and sent a smile I felt a bad premonition, and all on board, the Fourth spoke
“Butback on it now, it was a word that perfectly displayed his being in its entirety”
The Fifth refuted
“No, that’s no good That was a Best Lyle built off the circu at one another, spreading his hands to the heavens, a topless Lyle… Marvelous isn’t enough to get the point across I’ll have to go for a safer, ‘I’m a man loved by the Goddesses’ that you can convey to anyone”
Don’t earnestly dispute it Now’s not the time for that The Sixth asserted himself
“Then I’ princess’!”
The Seventh made a refreshed face as he punched my father
“’Fantastic’ was also nice Blowing away the syh I unpowder”
The Second looked around
“I don’t really know much, so I can’t decide”
No, don’t look so disappointed The First looked ata fed-up face as he remained mindful of his warrior wife
“Dude, what are you doing? Don’tabout Nove, ain’t she?”
I looked at Noveather Aria, Miranda, Shannon, Clara, Monica, Eva, May, Gracia, Elza, Ludmilla… and the Valkyries
They were all here There, the woman warrior spoke to me
“It’s a that with everyone here, you still havefor emperor With this many under your arms, you should do fine Now then, let’s hear your answer”
I looked over the in front of them all
On top ofancestors, their wives… Huh? Why do I have to confess here to begin with? Let’s find someplace quieter, and…
“… Oy, hurry up with it”
The wo Dewey looked my way as well
“Lyle, do your best”
Right, he supportedto confess in front of such an innocent boy And when this innocent youth was supposed to be the elder brother, when it came to the Third…
“Gosh~, it sure is helpful you’re all here to decide the Best Lyle I had a feeling it would come to this”
Dammit! … Hah, I’d best just resolve myself already
I let go of the silver weapon There, as if it had finished its purpose, it reverted to the Jewel The Jewel I hung around ht
“Novem I can’t abandon everyone I don’t want to”
Nove female camp listened to my words with earnest faces I wonder what this is, I really want to run away But I don’t think I’d be able to
“But you were the one as always by my side from the moht it wouldn’t be bad to just settle down and live a quiet life with you”
Novem raised her face
“I’m a pain to deal with I’ve lost a majority of the power of the past Novem”
I came over to her side
“I don’t care about that Honestly, rather than past or future, my present reality is the heaviest! If you’re not with ot that!? Your beloved Lyle’s going to be crushed flat! Even now, supporting up everyone is one into overtime! So about whatever happened in the past, or what the future holds… it’s impossible, I tell you! Even if you place your expectations on me, there’s not much I can do!”
Novem shook her head
“No… I don’t want that! I don’t want… Lyle-sama to be crushed”
I stood her up
“We travelled together And we’ve come all the way here”
“… Yes”
I slowly eth into my embrace
“So together with me, let’s live in the present I want to live with you I want to be with you So stay by my side”
“…… Yes”
As Novem burst into tears, I spoke
“You’re my number one Not the evil God or Goddess Or any Novem or history The current you Novem… I love you So stay by my side forever!”
When I said that, the surroundings grew quiet I was too scared to look at the faces of the surrounding wo onto my clothes She let her tears flow, and leaked sobs as she cried
“Yes I’ll be with you forever So Lyle-sama… please keep me by your side”
As we clung onto one another, cheers and whistling rang out around As I looked around in surprise, I found the soldiers the ancestors called had met up with my own main army
… Confessing in front of a few hundred thousand? Seriously, cut me some slack If I kneould come down to this, I’d have chosen some cooler lines!

… In Centralle where the battle had ended, the ancestral woon subspecies
The First’s wife glared at the Second’s
“Hey, what’s this? It doesn’t taste like anything”
“It’s a taste only cultured people understand Isn’t it because you’re so crude that you don’t get it?”
Both made sed blows Around, preparations for the banquet were hurrying along, and Novem and the others helped out as well
As Shannon tried to snack on the fried Land Dragon, Miranda lowered a fist on her head
“… Ow”
A teary Shannon held her head with both hands, and Miranda sight She looked around The athered around hiestures to co
Those around listened in and laughed
To Miranda caifts It seems she had found ale and spices from the rubble of Centralle
“Hey, where should I bring these supplies?”
An injured May sat atop the crates being pulled in, as she exchanged a glass with Marina
“This ale’s great!”
“I know, right? But this is a splendid mountain of rubble The place was bloay quite cleanly”
May rejoiced over her drink while Marina looked around
“Leave the spices, and distribute the ale Rather, how long are they going to stay?”
The one to react to Miranda’s words was Claire On the lorung of the wives of history, she was treated quite poorly A white cloth wrapped around her head, she wore an apron Surely she was being worked hard to repent for this series of events
“Oh? Don’t want us? You don’t want us here? Imperial nobles really are the worst Only their mouths kno to move”
Miranda shook as a vein rose on her forehead It had been like this for a while After rejoicing over her reunion with Lyle, Claire had learned of the nurown quite irritated
“Well, at least they’re more decent than a parent who abandoned their child”
On Miranda’s words, Claire grit her teeth She hated how she didn’t have any words to return Seeing Miranda’s triumphant smile, Vera retreated from the area in haste
Shannon tagged along to make a quiet escape
As Claire stood vexed, Zenoire came over with her fan
“Oh ? Hey, are you slacking? This is why Counts in na Half-baked, and saved by the Walt House, yet they slack off on their work”
Claire sent an irritated glare to Zenoire
“… When you’ve nothing but history to you With nothing but pride beyond your standing, you raised a rebellion and lost, didn’t you?”
“Oh how terrible You’ve hurt o have Lyle coo comfort pitiful Lyle as throay by his parents”
“I’m sorry, that was out of line!”
Miranda thought as she looked over Zenoire and Claire’s exchange
(This is why that terrible custoets passed down I have to be careful myself)
There, she sent a glance to Nove For a while now, she had been silently working to perfection
So perfect Claire was left unable to coible to find fault
“Noves”
There, Novem turned her face to Miranda And she spoke with a smile
“That’s because you always have that cheeky look on your face, Miranda-san Yet you act all cute when you’re in front of Lyle, of course they’d get irritated Because you’re shady as all hell”
… Miranda was at a loss for words And as if to continue on, Novem spoke
“And I’ain”
“… What?”
Miranda glared at her Novem made a smile of leisure
“I’ and scramble for his second place”
Miranda and Noveether
“Don’t think your place will be stable forever I’ll snatch it away anytime So enjoy your nuet”
As if between the women… the at carried out, but sparks were flying left and right…
