"The Marquis tells me what's going on with Rachel, but I'm still glad to see her."

"I can't see you at school."

"I'd like to settle this by the graduation party, though. I'm really sorry it wasn't impudent."

"I understand that things will get worse if His Highness makes a stand."

Neither will His Majesty stand out and push for the engagement of Anna beyond the ongoing engagement of me and His Highness.

But I do not know when His Majesty will change his mind.

If His Royal Highness shows his obsession with me, it could force him to dissolve his engagement with me, even if it doesn't seem normal.

That is why we hardly ever meet to divert His Majesty's attention, even at the only school we can meet.

Where is the school and whose eyes…… who is the enemy on your side? I don't see that.

Outside of a secure setting, it would be dangerous for me and His Highness to meet now.

"But it's over for me to keep you company.

I don't even intend to be your majesty.

So I hope Rachel goes with confidence "

"Thank you..."

Your Highness's words were a little different from what I had imagined.

Must have been on your face.

His Highness looked at me wondering if I was uncomfortable with the words of gratitude I had spoken.

"What's up?

"No, Your Highness does not object."

"Did you think I would?

To be honest, His Highness wondered if it would show any difficulty.

Because there was a kidnapping disturbance on Marcel territory.

That matter is only because I still have it as an unpleasant memory for His Highness. In the same vein, I was thinking of the possibility that I would not get approval from His Highness because I would be leaving the King's capital.

Besides, it is also true that there is no more danger than then this time.

It is a pleasure to send you away, but I have doubts that His Highness has given me a light acknowledgement.

"To be honest, I can't help but worry. As much as I want to go with you. But you're going, right?

His Royal Highness exhaled small "Phew," then picked one room of my hair and stared at me jizzily as it was.

"… Yes"

"If so, all I can do is adjust the perimeter so Rachel can go safely and come home.

Besides, I don't know what I have, but is there something I care about in Busque territory?

"Yes."

To my answer, Your Highness closes his eyes for the first time. And I slowly took a few seconds and then opened my eyes again and just whined, "Well."

The expression of His Highness, and the words alone, seemed to convey His Highness's sentiments.

On top of all sorts of grids, he said he was trying to set aside His Highness's feelings and respect my feelings.

After a little silence, His Highness gives a bright voice to me as if smiling nicely alters the air earlier.

"Rachel, meditate your eyes"

"Huh?"

"Look, it's okay."

Eyes?

What happened suddenly?

As he remained perplexed and looked to explore His Highness, His Highness urged again.

Close the eye lid as Your Highness asked, but my head was full of questions.

But I feel like His Royal Highness has turned behind me just because of the air.

And something touched my ears, and my shoulders swayed naturally and viciously.

"You can't move."

To the voice of His Highness whispering in his ear, I wonder if it was His Highness's sassy hair that I touched earlier.

Besides, I can hear His Highness from right near me, and I realize that His Highness is closer than I thought.

When you are aware of it, your body stops moving like it has solidified.

That's when something hissed his neck touched him.

As if that were a signal, the sign of His Highness seemed a little distant, but I can't judge it because I'm meditating on my eyes.

Then slowly open the eye lid to His Highness's voice, who says, "You can open your eyes."

Then the first thing that caught my eye was His Highness staring gently at this one.

His Highness nodded one satisfactorily, turning his gaze to my face, and to his neck.

"Yeah, it looks good"

To the words, I follow His Highness's gaze to confirm my neck.

Then a necklace I don't remember putting on there.

In the center, gems…… No, is it a demonic stone?

When His Highness came to the balcony of my room under the dark night sky.

It's like the color of His Highness's eyes at that time, lit by the moonlight and the slightest light in the room in that darkness.

Deep sea color.

Such a beautifully cut Demon Stone necklace is elegant yet reasonably sized and looks just right for everyday use.

Touching to check the stones on that necklace adds joy.

"… beautiful. Thank you, Your Highness."

"No. As I imagined, it suits you well"

His Highness looked at me with his arms together, and when he reached out to me with the hand he was putting together, he stroked my wavy hair to accompany the stream.

And gently draw him to His Highness's chest to hold my head tight.

"Your Highness..."

His Royal Highness nodded back at the voice I groaned, and he held me even more.

"A little more, will you stay like this?

"Yes."

"… one thing I've learned."

"What did you learn? What is it?

"When you can do something important, now you're afraid to lose it. What I fear most now.

It's about losing you. "

His Royal Highness peered into my face as he pulled a little out of his arm.

The smile is on my face, but I'm frowning somewhere lonely.

"Rachel, I swear I will always protect you.

So I want you to let me know as soon as something happens "

"Yes…… of course.

I will definitely return to Your Highness.

So can you wait?

To my inquiry, His Highness nodded gently with his eyes narrowed.

"Oh. I'll be waiting, thinking of you."

Thoughts I didn't know when I traveled to Marcel territory before.

I miss leaving.

Before travelling to Marcel territory, I was unaware of my love heart and, above all, had strong hopes for the future.

That is why I could not think of the thoughts of His Highness that awaited me.

… but I think so now.

Maybe it's harder to wait.

Wait, because I feel time is running out, and most importantly, I don't know what's going on with my own eyes.

That's why His Highness's words, thoughts, told me to believe in me and wait.

I will surely return to His Highness so that I will not betray all of it.

His Highness stared at me with a serious look when he held the necklace stone around my neck.

"The magic stone is my magic to protect you."

"Your Highness's..."

"Ah. So I want you to wear it whenever you can during your journey.

That way, when I put the necklace on in the morning, when I peeked in the mirror, when I took it off at night.

You'll remember my face, won't you?

Sure, with this necklace, I can always feel His Highness on my side.

I'm sure that will empower me during my journey.

But remember?

No.

"I always remember…"

It was in my heart that I groaned small and bossy.

No matter what happens, you can't forget about His Highness.

I'm sure, looking at the blue sky, looking up at the stars.

If you find a blonde in the city.

Even when I ate something delicious.

If there is any incentive to think of His Highness.

No, maybe you don't need a trigger.

Because there are so many feelings for you in my heart.

I guess I always think of it.

And you'll miss me sooner than later.

I've missed you so many times, maybe I can't sleep.

Still, I move forward one step at a time, because even if His Highness isn't on his side, he's always there for me.

I'm always in love with you.

"Hmm. … I figured I'd tell the Marquis to stop Rachel's journey"

"Your Highness, why… are you still unprepared?

His Royal Highness corrects "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant" when he laughs happily.

… what does that mean?

"You don't know when a raw man will show up after Rachel, not just Leonie, do you?

I can't even imagine what would happen to me if I met my destiny again during my journey. "

"… jealousy, etc. Your Highness is always a gentleman."

"That's because I want you to see me like that. If you look inside my heart, Rachel might escape."

Escape?

Am I from His Highness?

… I've never thought about it since I realized I liked it.

"I'm not running away."

"Well, let's just say I capture you in peace. Before I could really get away with it."

His Royal Highness always looks at this one with a niggling deep grin, just like when he jokes.

"His Highness is just joking again. I've had enough of my heart, Your Highness."

That's what I say, and I accidentally hack.

… What are you talking about?

After that, I thought it was the usual joke of His Highness, and my open mouth poured out the real thing in a light way.

I wish it was a joke, but my words are of indisputable sincerity. I can't believe I'm giving it back to you for real...

I'm sure it's passed on to His Highness.

Wouldn't His Highness pull me off by saying this?

I get worried and look up in horror at His Highness's face.

Then the face of His Highness, staring at me as he opened his eyes and was astonished, became all red, and his gaze wandered.

"... I want to take you home now."

Her Highness covered her mouth with her hands to hide her reddened face, so I could never hear her whining.
