What Anna says after she leaves, I still have glue in my head and her words coming up one by one.

Because no matter what you do, you remind me of her pain.

At that time, it was Samuel who came in with the sound of the knock.

Apparently he brought a treat, and the fragrant scent of baking fills the room.

As the scent invites me, I woke up in my bed until earlier.

'Nyan' rings in a grumpy voice as she quickly wraps around Samuel's foot.

… It doesn't look like Samuel, though, Chr.

Nevertheless, wasn't Samuel supposed to be off until today?

"Oh, Samuel. You were back."

"Yes, earlier. Thank you for your time off. Thanks to you, I was able to get my brother's wedding."

"Well, good for you."

Samuel should have been on vacation for about two weeks for your brother's wedding. And he was even returning to Baron Emonier's territory, but was he due back today?

"I wish I was more relaxed because I'm off till today"

"No, because it's just not right for you to be resting"

"Really? But rest early today. You'll be tired from a long journey."

Samuel snorts when he laughs nicely at my words. And he prefaced, "If you say so," as if he remembered something.

"You left the church carriage earlier. Just when I got back, I was wrong."

"… the Virgin came today. My girlfriend and I are in the same grade at school."

"Holy Virgin, is it? That was a lot of rumors in my realm, too. That the Virgin was born."

"Yes. Then you've spread all over the country already."

Nodding at Samuel's words.

Really? Baron Emonier's territory is a long way from the king's capital, but I didn't know rumors were already spreading.

After all, the birth of the Virgin seems to be of great interest to the people of this country.

And I open my mouth to ask Samuel one question.

"What do you think of Samuel? That the Virgin was born."

"Me, is it? I'm not so sure..."

Samuel lowered her eyebrows like she was in trouble and whined a little to think, "That's right," as she scratched her head with her big hand.

"It's good to be bright for the country, isn't it? Everyone in Ichii seems to be wondering what kind of people they are."

"Right. It hasn't been revealed yet."

"Well, but I don't think you'll get to meet me as just a cook. … but I hope the Virgin doesn't suffer too much."

"Suffering...?

As thrilled by the words, he looks up hah and sees Samuel's face, Samuel is strangely Kyoton.

Yes, it was. Samuel hasn't listened to Anna earlier.

So it makes this painful. That's not what Anna herself is talking about right now.

Then what are you referring to?

"Thanks to the Virgin if the country is rich. But disaster and bad weather persisted, and if anything bad happened, the Virgin would have pissed off the Spirit King, or something, right?

Because it's weak to say people. If something bad happens to a country, it is easy for a prominent human being to be criticized.

… so I hope the Virgin stays calm. "

Sure it is.

And it's about that majesty. Perhaps it is not strange to think of Anna, the Virgin, as a royal shield.

Moreover, if she were to be a Virgin, she would also be deeply involved with the Church and high nobility.

There are plenty of people trying to exploit her position.

I realize the malice, and I must admire it.

… Still, I didn't expect to think that much of someone I'd never met.

I really think this cook is nostalgic.

Even at my time, he cooked for me personally and with my health in mind, not to mention because I was hired.

I guess you think about people and look at them very closely.

"Samuel is sweet."

"No, because I'm just a politically oblivious person"

"Then excuse me," Samuel left the room, waving his wasps and hands in front of his face as he feared in my words.

Soon Cro on my lap puts the cookies on the plate in my pakun and mouth and moves the mogmog and mouth.

When I run out of cookies in my mouth, 'Nyer' rings again, prompting me for my next treat.

"Cro, how much spirits are we talking about? Is it too much sweets?

"Nha."

"Yes, yes, one more thing."

I laugh bitterly at the cro who prompts me whether I eat it or not, and say a novel. Then Crowe slaps my arm lightly with his forefoot tongued like he was in a bad mood.

And when I carried another cookie to my mouth, I jumped Piong off my lap with it added to my mouth.

When I took it straight to the bed where I slept until earlier, I started eating it slowly, looking important.

Unexpectedly, such a clo's appearance is filled with a crunchy grin.

Looks like Crowe's been waiting for Samuel's treat for a long time.

Well.

I have to write to His Highness to let him know about today.

But how far can I tell you about Anna's situation?

You can't tell me what I didn't tell His Highness.

To reassure His Highness, who would be worried...

Where I opened the drawer to retrieve the note, I could hear the voice along with the sound of "lady" knocking on the door.

And when I called out, "Go ahead," Sarah came in with a slightly confused look.

"What's wrong?

"That's... Ernesto can see you..."

"Ernesto? You haven't made a promise to me, but is there anything I can tell you about your father?

My cousin Ernesto sometimes visits my home to meet my father.

That said, I seem to be busy with workouts these days, and as soon as I'm done with my errands, I go home. Because of this, I sometimes say hello to you.

"No, that seems to be what the lady needs…"

"Me? I don't know. … Reception room?

"No, wait in the garden," he said.

"Okay. Thanks."

To Sarah's words, undo the drawer she was about to take out her note.

Then he takes his seat and tries to leave the room.

Then Sarah called out to me, "Um," as if in a hurry.

"It's not just Ernesto, it's your friend."

"Ernesto's friend? … who is it?"

"That's it, hide yourself in the robe. Come on.

Ernesto said he was a certain person. The deacon also told you that he was okay because his husband had told you that he was okay. "

Hide yourself with a robe?

I wonder if you're from the Sorcery Division.

"Right. If your father knew, he wouldn't be suspicious.

I'll ask Ernesto for more details. "

"Okay, I'll be with you."

I hear Sarah's been worried about me for a long time.

Indeed, there is no such thing as hiding yourself in this Marquis Mansion.

Besides, Ernesto, he didn't hear it was coming, but suddenly what happened?

… Perhaps you know that Anna visited today.

Ernesto and Anna were close at school.

Sarah and I head to the garden consultancy.

You can peek inside the glass concentrations slightly even from the outside.

And there, I saw two figures at the tea table.

Ernesto and the... brown robe, but also with someone with a deep hood who has no idea who it is.

Brown, that's not the sorcery division.

Maybe he really just wants to hide himself.

… so who is it?

Wondering, Sarah enters the conservatory through the door she opened.

Then they looked up and looked at me as if they had noticed me.

However, it was not Ernesto who reacted immediately, but the person with the brown robe.

The man runs here early enough when he gets up from the chair.

"Eh."

I open my eyes to surprise and my voice leaks unexpectedly.

To unexpected behavior, I lower my leg back, trying to move forward.

But the speed at which the robe people come at me when they try to get a distance is not going to slow down.

"Become what?"

Hands in front of each other, trying to stop the person, but it was already late, and the man in the robe hugged me giggly with each of his arms.

… Ah, this scent.

That's when my robe's hood came off and my golden hair dyed in the red sunset plundered my cheeks.

At the end of his gaze, Ernesto is getting up from his seat and asking him how this one is doing with a bitter grin as troubled.

But he doesn't seem to see that happening to this man who holds me to his full strength.

"Rachel, I was worried."

Slightly loosening the force of his arms, the person gently wraps my cheeks with both hands.

And when I looked at him, my beautiful face widened all over my sight.

"Your Highness."
