A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

"That's right, Reurus, you guys are gone....."

The evening Reurus and Eliza visited Ruvillia.

Upon returning to the residence of the Count of Werg, Louis sat on his chair in his room and heard from Anemone disappointing reports that Reurus and the others had returned home.I was going to hurry back as fast as I could, but I sighed that it was too late.

I heard that Reurus is going sightseeing in Ruvillia and the King's Capital, but when I met him that day, Ruvillia was ill.Originally, I wanted to apologize to Count Werg before going out, but today Louis also needed to go out in the morning to meet people.

There was an idea that if I heard that Reurus was sick, Ruvillia would be able to do it with a bitter smile - but when I heard that she returned home without facing each other, I was worried that she should have stayed home even if she delayed the appointment.

But today, I had plans to face several nobles, so I couldn't delay it.

You can't stay in King's Landing forever, like Louis.As the successor to the Duke of Werg, it was time to return to the territory.

Therefore, a meeting on exchanges after returning to the territory was held to greet the guests that they would soon leave the King's City.Negotiation to receive regular information from people living in King's Land.And while Louis was careful, he needed to make a post mortem report named Explain to the Marquis of Grimer about Leurus and Ruvillia's marriage.

Inside, there was even a consultation about how to get along with the rumored "brother-in-law (Reurus)", nicknamed "Dragon Killer".It would be better to talk to Baron Amendora about the matter than to myself, but Lewis thinks it's still a bad fight.

Still, King's City is a convenient place to connect with a variety of houses, but there is also the danger of being pulled if you hit poorly.Regarding the Reurus, even if it is wrong, it cannot be said to be detrimental to the Reurus.

Louis, who had been doing such negotiations from morning to evening under the mask of a smile, received reports from Annemone, not only of the information that the Reurus had returned home, but also of how the Reurus had reacted.

Depending on the reaction of Reurus and the others, I was going to send an apology directly from now on.

"I didn't think he'd get angry... unexpectedly or more than I expected."

Louis, who received a report from Anemone on the trend of Reurus, had a vague smile, rather than an annoying expression.

It is within the expectation that Reurus did not show his angry appearance.But Louis leaned his neck with an ambiguous smile when he heard that Ruvillia was sick, bought fruit for the market, and hand-cut it for Ruvillia to eat.

"It settled down with the nominal true wife, but it wasn't a bad treatment... no, it was better.Is it because of your personality, Reurus, or has someone given you the wisdom... "

I thought Reurus would somehow not treat Ruvillia like a bastard, but when I received a report from Anemone, it seemed a bit “excessive” for Louis.Even if I had my first wife, would I go out of my way to buy fruit and feed it to my sick first wife?

(Reurus told me that you can't make Ruville your top priority, but make yourself happy... is this “yes”?You might think it would cherish Ruvillia more than you expected.....)

Louis is half happy and half worried that Ruvillia might lose herself.Anemone, who was careful not to interfere with Louis' thoughts, spins words about Ruvillia at a time when Louis' concentration was interrupted.

"The young lady was... very pleased.After Reurus and the others left, I thought I'd get heartburned..... "

"Sure, from our encounter to our engagement, the bard is about to sing.I'm glad to hear it from my brother, but from Ruvillia, it shouldn't be a “happy” noise. "

"I was so excited last night that I didn't sleep."

"Yeah, well... let's just smile there.Reurus, if you weren't with me, I wouldn't be laughing at you. "

No matter how much King Leonardo approved it, there is no denying that it could have left a bad impression on the opponent.

Louis rethinks in his heart that his brother-in-law is sweet around here.The Reurus will be back in the Territory soon, but we should apologize and face each other before that happens.

"Mr. Reurus is either large or careless... I appreciate it when I think of him as Ruvillia's husband, but as a quasi-bar I can say that his side is sweet.If only Ruvillia could support her as a wife around here.... "

That's what Louis said, but although Ruvillia is educated properly, she's afraid that there aren't enough places because she wasn't out socializing due to "ill health.”Sebastian will accompany you in Ruvillia's closet, so I may be able to give you some advice, but I don't know how all this will fall.

Lewis thinks it's not a good idea to stick his neck too far into another family situation, even though it's Ruvillia's daughter-in-law.Anemone, who was watching Lewis like that, waited for his thoughts to come to an end and opened his mouth.

"When Louis came back, Miss Ruvillia said she would talk to you if she had time.If there's something to be afraid of, why don't you talk to Louis personally? "

"My brother's heart is that I don't want to hit my cute sister as hard as possible..." Ruvillia told me?What the hell is going on? "

"I didn't hear that either... but it seemed pretty serious."

"Hmm...."

Is it so serious to lie down on the anemones I've been taking care of since I was a kid?Or is it just hard to say?

Louis thought so, but he turned to Anemone if he didn't actually listen.

"I don't have a job to clean up right now, can you get Ruvillia?"

"Yes, please wait"

He dropped off Anemone's back as he left, and Lewis leaves his back in the chair where he was sitting.And somehow he looked up at the ceiling and exhaled.

"Not only Anemone, but I don't think I'm gonna fall in love with you Reurus... no, if you think you can see the cute side of my sister..."

Even if he fell in love, Louis smiled bitterly that he would only be able to heal the mind that stood by him in discussions with nobles elsewhere.I think that after all the “hard work”, even if it's a romantic story, I should listen to it properly as my brother.

― ― If Ruvillia gets married, she rarely gets to hear such stories.

Waiting for a while thinking about that.Louis smiles softly at Ruvillia, who shows up with Anemone.

"Ruvillia, are you feeling well?"

"Yes, thank you for your concern."

In response to Louis' words, Ruvillia answered correctly.And Louis said, "Oh?Though I leaned my neck in my heart, I didn't know what was wrong and proceeded with the story.

"So? Anemone told me that she wanted to talk to me about something...."

With those words, Louis confirms Ruvillia's expression.As I told you that Anemone seemed to be serious, her expression looked hard, but she didn't seem to think about it.

"Rather than talking... I have a favor to ask."

"Hmm... please, that's an unusual cut."

When I was a kid, I didn't even know, and since I became “ill," I almost stopped speaking selfish.Louis dishonored Ruville's remarks and looked up with his arms.

"Whatever, I'll grant you as long as you can if you want me to.Of course, there are things I can't do, so I'd like you to help me. "

The biggest thing was to marry Reurus - but for some reason, Ruvillia became Reurus's true wife.

Compared to that, Louis thinks most wishes will come true.

"It seems that Reurus and the others will leave King's Landing soon....."

Whether you know or not how Lewis feels, Ruvillia makes a serious face and speaks with a serious voice.

"--I would like to accompany you."

"... what?"

Unexpectedly, there was no sound coming out of Lewis's mouth.And Louis returned to me over the course of a few decades with a smile that echoed Ruvillia's remarks.

"Ah... Ruvillia? Of course, you're talking about marrying Mr. Reurus, and you have the King's permission, but you're not really married yet."

"I understand that.However, from the point of view of His Majesty the King's approval, I do not believe that Reurus himself will be able to cover it more than he refuses. "

"... well, I guess so. But“ that ”and" this "are different.No matter how much your Majesty admitted it, I'm not officially married, but I'll come to Reurus..... "

As a lady of nobility, there is much to be desired.Ruvillia spins her words as she tries to block Louis.

"In any case, I don't want to marry anyone other than Reurus now.Besides, if it's a conversation, you don't have a future to marry. "

"That's... well, I guess so..."

Louis replies badly to Ruvillia's words.

If Leonardo had admitted it, he would have wondered what the problem was.It was also a marriage story after Leonardo himself suggested marrying the princess rather than the concubine and had a "beauty talk” about choosing Ruvillia.

Reurus, who chose Ruvillia to kick off the wedding story with the princess, would have a martial name that would make it difficult to gather criticism.Rumors abound that something was in Ruvillia enough to talk, and the court nobles must be delighted to ride.

That makes it extremely difficult for Ruvillia to marry someone else.The worse the marriage partner's condition is than before he gets better, the more likely he will still be unable to marry.

"... why did you do that?"

Understanding that, Lewis asks for an explanation.Ask Ruvillia if there is a reason to be convinced, even though she is about to sigh deeply.

"As for" Jinmen ”, it is to be useful to your daughter-in-law, Reurus.The town of Speranza already has Reurus's home, but it's only for adventurers.Do you need someone to advise you on how to build a house that is commensurate with your status as a Baron? "

"That's right... there's Lord Natalia and Lord Collard, right?"

Lewis asks Ruvillia, who speaks with a serious face, to be the head of the Earl's family, not his brother.He turned his sharp gaze to Ruvillia without saying he would not accept it for a half-life reason, but Ruvillia continued to speak without being pressured to look back at Louis' eyes.

"Do they live in a suitably sized house?"

"... I hear that's not true."

Natalia plans to build a suitable mansion in the town of Speranza, but it is only planned.The home in the abandoned city of Laval was a simplicity and a substitute for being a baroness.

With regard to Collard, the residence in the town of Speranza is only temporary.Even if Natalia were to cede territory in the future, we would need a house to live in until then.

"I have actually lived since the Count of Velg was a Vicomte.”I want to understand what is needed and what is unnecessary in real life.I think that's good knowledge not only for Reurus, but also for Baron Amendura and the others. "

"... sure."

If you have actually lived there for many years, you can remember what you need and what you don't.Louis was convinced that the knowledge he had learned as a noble lady would take some form.

Of course, given the need to create a mansion commensurate with the atmosphere of Baron Amondola's territory, Ruvillia's story is nothing more than a pictorial mochi.

"But you said you were building it yourself, right?Then where is the “heart”? "

It would be good to pass in front of a building like that, but what about the heart?In response to Louis asking, Ruvillia answered with a serious expression.

"Because I thought it was necessary for Reurus.That's why I think I should do my part as a wife. "

"... what exactly are you going to do?"

From Louis' point of view, it is an ambiguous answer.So I asked for more details, but when I came here, Ruvillia changed her expression for the first time.

Until then, I smiled ambiguously, as if in trouble.

"I thought I should accompany you to make that decision.It's formal, but I'll be his real wife. "

"I see... you have a job as my wife."

From Ruvillia's words, Louis read behind it.

There is a concern that Ruvillia should move as the correct wife, but it is only a concern and there is little that can be done in the present situation.But I can't move back to Count Verg's territory with Louis when it's too late.

As Louis, I wanted to know more about what Ruvillia was thinking and trying to do.However, this is a story that involves the intimacy of the Baroness Valza of Reurus, even if he is not bad at it.

No matter how much Reurus becomes his brother-in-law, there is a line that must not be stepped in.Louis' feelings seemed like a good line to step in, but when I think of Reurus' face, and then I look at Ruvillia's expression, the feeling also spreads.

"... Reurus, we won't talk about this without your permission. Okay?"

After all, that's all Lewis could say.
