64. Silver Wolf (3)

“Don’t go…” “Is something wrong?”

I asked Irina as I held on to her collar.

“Oh, that’s….”

She was embarrassed by what she had done without realizing it.

She hastily let go of my sleeve that she had grabbed.

The princess devised an appropriate answer to resolve what she had done.

She came out and Dasha, who had been watching from afar, looked down at her silently and waited.

“Lea, Leah is busy today. “He’s probably in the magic tower by now.”

The moment she finally answers.

The sound of newspapers flapping could be heard from afar.

Dasha covering her own forehead.

It seems she didn’t like Irina’s answer.

“I heard there is an official schedule to visit the Magic Tower today.”

“I see….”

I was alone in my thoughts with my hand on my chin.

‘Now that I think about it, I entrusted Leah with dealing with the arsonist who attacked Irina.’

In a way, it was my fault that she was busy.

In such a situation, it would be unreasonable to immediately go to the coalition to make a proposal.

“Then, it will be difficult to see you today.”

Irina’s nervous face gradually brightened.

Soon she calmed down again, maintained her intelligent princess expression, and made a suggestion to me.

“So, how about taking a look around the city with me today?”

“You mean here?”

“Yes, even though it is my territory, I barely got around to looking around.”

In her past life, Irina stayed at home and only read books.

In this life, it seems that her sense of responsibility as a princess has become stronger, perhaps thanks to the creation of her knights.

“Okay, I will accompany you.”

Because she was so admirable, she readily accepted.

“Really… ?”

“Yes, I will patrol and help just for today.”

Irina’s mouth turns up shyly.

She covered her lips with the back of her hand to hide it.

“Then, shall we start by looking around the city? “It is the royal family’s job to watch over the lives of the people.”

“Okay, let’s go.”

Irina’s territory, Center Village, is also famous as a city of culture.

So there were many theaters and street plays.

We walked slowly along the street together.

Fortunately, no citizen recognized her as the princess.

Probably because of the clothes I changed into.

“There are a lot of people on the streets today.”

“Yes, because it is a holiday, there are many performances on the streets.”

Crowded with people.

They filed into the spectacular dome-shaped theater.

The second princess stared at the crowd.

She seemed as if she wanted to see a play too.

“Bale, shall we go see a play…?” ?”

Irina looked up at me.

And she asked carefully.

“Weren’t we on patrol?”

“Well, we have to patrol the theater too. In fact, accidents often occur in densely populated places….”

Her hair, tied back, fluttered as if to represent her excited heart.

“So the idea was to go there once. “If you don’t like it, don’t.”

Irina loved literature and theater even in her past life.

However, in this life, she must have been busy running her knighthood and her various schedules.

She must have been quite excited to see the theater for the first time in a long time.

Considering Irina, who has been working hard recently, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give her a break.

“I see, that certainly makes sense.”

“Right? “This is all the job of a monarch who manages his territory.”

The princess breathed a sigh of relief.

And then, she confidently took out her ticket from the counter.

“Now, here’s your ticket.”

I accepted the ticket.

And what kind of performance is this and why there are so many people?

I checked to see if Irina wanted to see it.

“The Grand Princess of the North’s slave knight… All viewing version… ?”

What is this title?

I remember seeing it a few days ago….

I frowned and looked at Irina.

Then I met her emerald eyes.

Those eyes held a strange smile.

“What are you doing? Let’s go in.”

Is it because of the outfit that makes her body stand out?

Her expression looked strangely mature.

Irina walked ahead of me.

Thanks to this, her hair tied back danced cheerfully.

I looked happily at the excited back of the princess.

However, he soon stopped laughing and hurriedly followed along.

“… !”

As the start time of the play got closer, a crowd came from behind.

Irina bumped her shoulder as the crowd suddenly poured into her.

And the moment when I stumble.

I wrapped my arms around her back.

“Are you okay?”

Is it because the knit material is thin?

Irina froze at the feel of my palm wrapped around her back.

“The clothes…”

From noble mtl dot com

And then he looked up at me with a red face.

“No, thank you. Veil….”

“The entrance is likely to be crowded, so please be careful.”

Irina rubbed both of her arms to see if she had goosebumps.

She then entered the theater, close by my side.

Our seats were economy class, crowded with people.

She entered the narrow seats and sat down with the people.

“Why don’t you go to the VIP section?”

When I asked, Irina smiled and shook her head.

“It’s okay, I don’t have any seats.”

After listening to her words, she looked up to the second floor where the VIP seats were.

‘Just looking at it, it’s spacious… ?’

Thinking it was strange, I looked down at Irina again.

Then, my eyes suddenly turned to her black leggings.

One of her hands hidden between her thighs.

A small note caught her eye between her palms.

For a moment, I focused my mana on her eyes.

And I looked closely at the contents of the note.

「Go to the theater, and make sure your seats are ‘general class’!」

Looking at your handwriting, it’s Dasha.

Even though it was a theater, why did they ask me to go to general seating?

“Veil?”

While concentrating on her note, Irina spoke to her.

I collected my mana and answered calmly.

“Yes?”

“Where were you looking?”

She soon looked down at her thighs, where my eyes were directed.

Then, the corner of her mouth lifted up.

“Did something fall on my seat?”

She gently pulls down her knit and smiles shyly.

He looks confident that Dasha’s coordination was a success.

However, her smile soon disappeared.

Because a completely different answer came out of my mouth than expected.

“I saw the white note you were holding in your palm.”

“Well, a note… ?”

“Yes, may I ask what it says inside?”

Irina hurriedly hid the secret letter from Dasha. She

And then she realized she was mistaken and hung her head down.

“No… You don’t have to know….”

“I understand.”

I leisurely turned her head.

And with her hands clasped behind her neck, she leisurely watched the play.

“….”

Irina, who had asked her to come see the play, did not raise her head for a while.

She only covered her face with both hands, as if she was just trying to calm down her burning heat.

“Haaa…”

She made a groaning sound as if she was quite upset.

「―――.」

The content of her play was acceptable.

A story about a woman in crisis being protected by her bodyguard.

It’s a very common romance novel.

But why did Leah hide the contents of her novel at the time?

Thought it was strange, I glanced at Irina.

“….”

She calmed down to some extent.

With her serious eyes, she was silently watching her play.

“Hey, Irina.”

“Yes.”

She answers with her eyes focused on the performance.

When I asked her about the content of her play, her green eyes sparkled.

“What happens behind this novel?”

“What’s next?”

When the original story came out, Irina looked serious.

And she began to faithfully explain the plot.

“By letting the grand duchess escape in danger, her slave knight buys time alone.”

The princess pointed to a male actor with black hair like me.

“A knight who collapses from exhaustion while fighting alone waits forlornly for death to come.”

While Irina was explaining, she swallowed her saliva deeply.

She said, her emerald eyes sparkling.

“Then, thanks to the princess returning with her reinforcements, she survives, and in the end, we get a happy ending.”

“I guess they lived happily ever after.”

I said, looking blankly at the performance.

However, the princess’s answer did not return.

She felt strange about this and turned her head.

Then, I found the princess wiggling her hands.

“That’s right…. Hot love in an escaped carriage….”

Feeling strange, I tilted my head.

“What are you doing in the carriage?”

As my face got closer, Irina’s pupils shook.

She smiled and shook her head.

“Actually, I don’t know much because I didn’t read the story behind it.”

“I see. Well then, I’ll have to look for it later.”

I nodded calmly.

Then Irina hurriedly waved her hand.

“No! You don’t have to look at the back story. “You really just made love?”

“You mean love?”

“Okay… , love!”

The princess’s face turned red as if something had occurred to her.

I asked her with an expressionless expression.

“But, didn’t you say earlier that you didn’t know the story behind it?”

She lost focus in her eyes.

Her face immediately turned white as if she was at a loss for words.

“Ah.”

Only then did I realize why Leah had hurriedly banned me from reading her book.

And the reason why this play is suitable for all audiences.

“….”

Irina pursed her lips.

I didn’t ask any more questions for her because she was broken.

She just watched the play in silence.

「―――.」

The final scene of the performance has arrived.

Collapsed castle.

And one knight trapped under the rubble.

He was lonely and waiting for death.

「Die while protecting your master.」

Still, a man satisfied with the fact that he protected the grand duchess.

He closed his eyes with a bitter smile.

But.

The sound of urgent shoes coming from afar.

He opened his eyes again at that sound.

And….

He apparently reunited with the archduchess he had let run away.

「Kyle, are you okay?」

「Why did you come back…? . I definitely told you to run away, hehehehe….」

When the owner who had let him live as long as possible returned, Namgisa asked in a sorrowful voice.

Then, the Grand Duchess spoke with a gentle smile.

「I thought about it the whole time I was leaving.」

「Can I really be happy when I survive alone like this?」

The knight answered her question with all his remaining strength.

「Isn’t it possible to be happy only if you live…? .」

「No, I don’t think I can do it without you.」

The woman supported the fallen knight.

She and she somehow got out of the shattered wreckage and together they headed to the escape.

「So, please live. Kyle….」

Two people stumbling together toward the light in the darkness.

For that moment, the packed audience became completely quiet.

Because all audiences are hoping that the man and woman will survive.

I glanced at Irina.

“….”

The appearance of lowering one’s head in shame has long since disappeared.

She was more focused on the play than ever.

Her smooth profile is clearly revealed thanks to her hair being tied back.

Emerald eyes reflected in the light sparkled like jewels.

The jewels turned into tears and flowed down her smooth chin.

Irina wiped the tears with the back of her hand.

She then unconsciously placed her hand on the armrest.

“Ah….”

2 The princess flinched at the warm body temperature felt on her armrest. She

And she realized that her palm was wrapped around the back of her hand.

I also realized it only then.

Why do people sit in cramped economy seats even though they have money?

I gently removed her palm from the armrest.

And then I cleared my throat and watched the play come to an end.

Irina also withdrew her hand.

She placed her joined hands on her chest and exhaled deeply.

All the way through to the end of the performance.

“Now, please get up slowly. The performance was fun.”

I got up from my seat.

And as I watched the crowd leaving first, I thought about when I would have to leave to protect the princess.

However, Irina just stared at me blankly.

Even though her hands touched, there was no reaction from my side.

“….”

Irina lowered her head and looked down at the note Dasha had given her.

And then, as if she had decided to do something, she packed up her note and put it in her pocket.

People leaving the heated theater.

I slowly joined the crowd together with the princess.

And so that she could get out safely, he took the lead and cleared the way for her.

But.

Irina, who normally would have waited for me to clear the way, suddenly came to my side.

“There are too many people.”

And….

He pushed his arm between my arms.

The note has been thrown away for a long time.

She decided to act according to her own convictions.

And the first step in that action is.

Her arms were crossed and her body was gently pressed against my arms.

Even my eyebrows, who had been calm until now, blinked at the soft touch.

The same was true for Dasha, who was watching from the VIP section on the second floor.

She held on to her railing and was about to jump off.
