Drop!! ～A Tale of the Fragrance Princess～ (WN)

Even around the house I'm used to, I also feel like I'm seeing unfamiliar views if it's dark outside.

But what I thought Cordelia was least accustomed to than that was that Elvis, the Lord, stood outside the gate.

Unlike what I expected, Elvis' expression did not include fierce anger. But I felt a quiet freezing rage, Cordelia's legs unwittingly clamped.

"I'm home now"

Cordelia let her core not shake her voice. I know I can't help being angry, but I still can't think of any other way Cordelia could have taken it.

But Elvis went straight ahead of Sylvester without looking at Cordelia.

"... I have heard the story clearly from the Marquis Eames and the Marquis Frantheim families. Your Highness, I would like to complain that the actions that put you in danger are too stupid."

That was a word without any hesitation.

Cordelia, and Sylvester know that not everything is good if the results are good. But Elvis' words didn't end there.

"But as a father, I sincerely thank you for returning my daughter safely."

And to Elvis, who thanked him deeply, Cordelia and Sylvester rounded their eyes, but Sylvester immediately shook his neck to the side.

"More, I thought he'd scold me"

"If that's what you need to do, you'll do it consciously. However, if His Royal Highness, who is not a child, decides so, all I can do is give an opinion."

"That means...... if you keep taking it too personally, you'll be abandoned lightly. I'll be careful."

Speaking pale, Elvis was as faceless as ever, but the cold he had already felt at first had disappeared.

"I'm sure some of you have been inspired by His Highness's work, no matter what I think."

Cordelia laughed small at Elvis, who would be unconscious but followed Sylvester, and proceeded to her feet next to Elvis. And looking back, Sylvester and I met each other, so I smiled at the same time.

"Elvis, will you listen to one wish from me"

"Something"

"If I could dictate Cordelia, would you allow me to turn her over to the Queen?

Cordelia, having heard the words, completely stopped thinking. It won't come true to look up because your body has also hardened, but Elvis is probably hardened as well.

All I could see in my eyes was Sylvester's serious expression.

"Of course if you don't like Cordelia, I'm not saying you can't. I'm not going to tell both sires, so you can assume it's my personal wish, not as royal."

There's no way I can tell you now that I'm in a sudden rush for words, even Cordelia hasn't responded to Sylvester with anything. If I looked at Elvis in a shabby motion, I felt the air behind what was unchanged was the expression black. That's not just because it's night.

However, I realized that there was nothing like words Cordelia could speak.

"… three years"

"Three years?

"I'm not going to let anyone daughter-in-law me for at least three years just out in the social world"

To everyone, I guess that's the word, including Sylvester, of course. Elvis' voice, which tells Cordelia that it was her first ear, also felt like crawling through the ground. But Sylvester wasn't frightened at all.

"Then don't worry. In the meantime, let me make an effort to get you favored. 'Cause I don't know what my parents would say if I were too long."

……

I guess it's because Elvis admits more than a certain amount that he won't tell Sylvester the rejection, but he hasn't even told him the language to accept it. Instead, I also feel like my mood is falling more and more.

"... My daughter has grown up since she was a child. With all due respect, I don't know if even Your Highness would be satisfied with it."

"Um, Father......!

"I know. That's why I've been trying so hard not to beat Dili, too."

"Hey, even Jill...!!"

But Cordelia was annoyed by her words when she tried to stop them.

I was accidentally caught by Sylvester's words, but I can't help but feel a strong gaze from next door. Cordelia took it with a pulling grin that the pressure just kept telling her what it was about.

But even Cordelia's appearance seemed interesting to Sylvester.

"That's why I told you. Be prepared."

The grin Sylvester had at that time felt like there was only a slightly meaner mix than ever, but that was a gentle, and serene smile that made me think that even if I looked different, I wouldn't change at all.
