Episode 13. Mutuje (8)

Due to the nature of the princess who doesn’t put up with being suspicious, wouldn’t a call come within a few days?

Besides, it’s not usually suspicious.

She was betrayed by the person she loved and thought would become her future wife.

If the princess had lost her temper just a little bit, she might have tried to tear me to death on the spot.

She wouldn’t have said anything at all if she had judged that she was that stupid in the first place.

As soon as her non-interview with the princess was over, she came looking for Elias.

“Haa…. A princess…. Is it too soon?”

“What can I do? She’s already been caught.”

“I’m glad I turned my eyes toward her top, though.”

“Because I raised her top to do that in the first place.”

If she went beyond her top, she had no answer other than to kill and hide the princess.

I wonder if it’s next year.

“So, how do you think the princess will respond?”

“She only has one answer.”

“Is that so….”

Since we planted her doubts properly, the answer will come before the finals at the very least.

“We need to strengthen the duke of the Hardenberg family.”

I was in the middle of preparatory work to help the princess when the Hardenberg family hit next year.

We’ve been slowing down a bit since we still have time, but now that things are very urgent, we have to go as fast as we can.

“What are you planning to do with the eldest son?”

“I have to kill you.”

This is also different from the plan.

Originally, I planned to keep it alive and use it forever, but it’s impossible now that it’s like this.

“I will prepare like that.”

“Prepare the Schlageter.”

“Children…. Are you going to come in?”

“No. Just a test.”

These are children who grew up on a lot of money.

I had to test it once, but I can’t miss this opportunity.

“Kids should also go through a real battle so they won’t panic later. Now is a good opportunity.”

“Okay.”

Now, the preparations are complete.

All that remains now is to wait for the princess to choose.

***************************

“Hmm.”

Maya felt strange.

The fact that Nico had been called by the princess as soon as today’s match had ended made me feel strange.

“Emma. What about Nico?”

“I am out of the academy now.”

“Who is it?”

“I attached it.”

I wasn’t expecting much.

I’ve attached people several times, but I’ve never been able to catch up to the end because it’s so new and elusive.

“Nico said see you tomorrow?”

“Yes. Miss.”

“Tell me that you understand.”

“Okay.”

Actually, I didn’t intend to meet.

Because I was a bit behind on work, and I thought I didn’t want to see him for some reason.

Honestly…. I was still less angry.

Not contacting you for 15 days, this was enough reason for disqualification as a lover.

I wasn’t really a lover.

‘But that’s not it!’

It is quite a full moon.

It’s not even a day or two, it’s 15 days!

It’s been 15 days since we’ve been lovers!

‘I’ll wait and see.’

Maya’s anger was not resolved.

Not yet

***************************

I’m nervous because I’m going on a date with Maya after almost 20 days.

Preparing flowers in advance and preparing a gift for Maya.

Of course, the wagon was waiting in advance.

Around the time she was waiting for her, trembling slightly in her nervous heart, Maya appeared after waiting for her for another 10 minutes.

“Nico. Have you been waiting long?”

“No. Maya. I just came too.”

Mmm.

It seems that the anger hasn’t resolved yet.

You don’t smile at all.

On the contrary, he puts on a slightly calm expression.

In addition, I wore a school uniform today, not a dress.

Her heart ached slightly as if she had gone back to before they started dating.

I’m just pretending to be dating.

“Where are you going?”

“Please leave that as a pleasure after you arrive. I will never disappoint you.”

“Huh. All right.”

Now I openly declare that my anger has not been resolved yet.

If this is the case, no matter how much I am, I think my heart will be slightly broken.

Still, seeing as they accept the outstretched hand when they get on the carriage, that doesn’t mean they don’t have a heart at all.

“…A flower?”

“I have prepared a flower that resembles you.”

The flowers were prepared with purple IPAEON.

Originally, it is a flower that blooms only in winter in very cold regions, but this Ipeion is an improved species.

I made it so that it can survive at room temperature to some extent.

Of course, the beauty of flowers is intact.

“It’s a bit pretty.”

The figure of Maya, who gently lifted her bouquet and smelled her scent, looked as beautiful as a goddess.

“It smells good too.”

Fortunately, he must have really liked the subtle scent of saffron.

A slight smile appeared on Maya’s face.

“This is my favorite scent. I’m glad you like it.”

“Huh.”

What. Although it soon returned to normal.

Still, a good start.

If it continues like this, I think I will be able to relieve my anger enough within today.

It took about 10 minutes to move by carriage.

We finally arrived at our destination.

“Maya. It’s still early for lunch, so how about a short walk?”

“On the street?”

She asked with an expression as if Maya was saying something for a moment.

Of course, there is no place to take a walk in the capital.

If not here.

I took the dubious Maya by the hand and walked for a short while and approached a building.

One of my next projects, just a few days from completion.

When you open the door and come right in, there is nothing special.

It looks like a building with a high ceiling just like the entrance to a theater, but if you go further inside after passing through the small desk counter, you will find a space that is hard to believe that it is a building built in the middle of the capital.

I would name it the Glass Palace.

It was a glass conservatory that was renamed after Elias asked if he could be dragged away for blasphemy.

“Wow….”

Maya’s expression changes rapidly.

I had only doubts until right before I opened the door, but now it was just a surprised expression.

“How are you? Maya? Isn’t it a nice place to take a short walk?”

“Of course!”

I thought I would definitely be satisfied.

Thousands of glass reflect the sunlight, shining in an inordinate way to brighten up the interior of the building, and tens of thousands of flowers below greet us.

It was a place that was guaranteed to be unseen even in the imperial palace, providing the best environment for both the flowers and the people who came in while maintaining the entire interior environment perfectly.

“I didn’t know there was a place like this in the capital!”

As if Maya had forgotten that she was angry, she moved her steps quickly.

With a smile on her face.

Seeing her like that makes me smile.

As expected, she was the most beautiful when she smiled.

“Since Maya and Flower are together, I don’t know which is Flower and Maya.”

“…”

Seeing that Maya’s face was turning red after she had been squatting and smelling the flowers for a while, she didn’t mind such gruff words.

Really.

***************

Thankfully, the date with Maya ended in success.

I was too focused on the flower garden, so I ate a slightly late lunch and went to the theater to watch a popular play in the capital.

I was able to give her the gift I had prepared for her at her last dinner.

It’s not overly expensive, but it’s a necklace that was praised for its beautiful workmanship, and I was even promised that I’d wear it someday.

Ah.

To think I had to put so much effort into a girl I didn’t even like.

It’s not easy to save the world.

“Let’s do some work now.”

“Let’s rest for a bit. Was it really hard today?”

“For all that was difficult, you seem to have enjoyed it immensely.”

That’s not wrong.

I also enjoyed the date with Maya a bit.

“Yes, yes. You don’t even give me time to rest.”

“If you go in today, you will come out again in a few days. Please help me at this time.”

“Did you understand?”

In the end, I got up from the sofa I was lying on, went back to my seat, and started looking at the documents Elias had handed over to me.

“Ah. The pudgy grandpa doesn’t say much?”

“He was a little dissatisfied, but he was understanding.”

“Thank God! That.”

It would be a headache if that nobleman went on strike.

There’s no one like Elias who can replace him, and he knows that very well, so it’s hard to go out strong.

“Are the Schlageter kids ready?”

“I can do it right away, even today.”

“How are the kids doing?”

“Excellent.”

“That’s a relief too.”

To be honest, I was very worried.

No matter how much they are raised for that purpose, people still have a conscience.

“These are children who would say that it would be difficult if they did not fight in the first place. You don’t have to feel too much remorse.”

“That’s right.”

As soon as my expression hardened slightly, Elias comforted me.

Certainly, Elias gets annoyed once in a while, but there is no doubt that she is the one who knows my circumstances the most and cares for me more than anyone else.

“Thank you. What would I have done without you?”

“…So that’s for Lady Maya….”

“I know. I know. But what is precious is precious, right?”

“… I see.”

A shy friend.

I hope that someday I will get out of this master-servant relationship and become true friends with this guy who can’t stand being shy.

“If it wasn’t for Nico-sama, I would still be wandering the streets like a tramp.”

“…Now I understand what you mean.”

I was more repulsed than I thought when I heard that guy say that.

You should just listen to Elias.

“I’m glad you understood.”

Saying that, Elias’ face turned red.

******************

“This is not good.”

Elias has been having a lot of trouble lately.

When she thought about it, she wasn’t without her own fault.

A sin of not dressing up like everyone else?

Of course she always wears only pants and keeps her hair short and her figure is a bit flat, but she’s been together for three years already and she still mistook him for a man.

“It’s difficult to clarify now.”

I’d like to reveal it once in a while, but if I did, it would be difficult to maintain the same distance as now.

“After…. You are harder for me than saving the world.”

She was Elias, who only sighed more today.
