Haunted Duke’s Daughter

A1 face-to-face 8

Nodding inside, he returns his gaze to Chris. Chris seemed a little nervous. But I can see that there is a slight but mixed expectation in that tension. I just felt a little hard to say, and Lilia slipped away softly.

"He wants you to wait a little longer."

"Ah...... Really..."

I sigh discouraged and drool. Not expecting to be that depressed, Lilia said as she panicked.

"He's bound to say hello to Chris later. It doesn't mean I don't like it because it's Chris."

"Is that true? I'm relieved. I was looking forward to the opportunity to exchange words with the Great Spirit."

That said, Chris smiles softly. Seeing it, Lilia slightly frowned.

- Hey, it's kind of like a huge hurdle...!

- Let's have a lot of fun. Good luck.

- I didn't want to hear it!

As Lilia laughed small, her eyes circled as Chris was surprised. When Lilia tilts her neck wondering what's wrong, Chris smiles vaguely and shakes her neck saying she doesn't care.

"Good luck, then"

Chris smiled and said so, gently leaving. As soon as I was confused without understanding what it meant to hang in there, I heard an extended voice from Sakura, uh.

- Come on, Lilia!

- What? What the hell...

I'll take a look around. A large number of nobles watched this side of the house as they rolled away. Sakura to Lilia, who pulls her cheeks together,

- All the senior aristocrats know me, don't they? Including that Lilia seems to be close.

One of the familiar aristocrats walks to Lilia. Apparently I have to say hello to a lot of people on this occasion. But this is what I expected. I also feel there are too many people, but it doesn't change what I do.

Lilia greeted the first one when she pasted a smiling mask.

Short, but one greeting at a time. There are many things to praise Lilia, but it seems very complicated when I try to meet her sarcastically.

- This man, one. I wonder if it would be okay for someone just now to think so......

Every time I say hello, Sakura is whining about something. Perhaps, but you appreciate the nobles in the Sakura. Who you can hang out with or who you should keep away from. Sakura's standards seem to be strict due to the large number of people who are said to be one. What are you looking at in this short conversation?

- Oh, yeah. The conversation doesn't matter because I just want to remember your face. I thought I'd ask you to go see him one by one for the first plan, but it'd be easier if you'd come from the other side.

Apparently, that's what happened. I know it's a hassle, but if you say you need a sakura, I'll go out with you.

That's how I went on to greet them for a while and ended my greeting with everyone by the time Lilia's dish dish was completely cold. We can finally eat the food, I just thought,

"Then it's time"

The king's voice echoed into the room. Put the plates on the table in case you're about to be offended. Turning his gaze to the king, the king also looked at Lilia and looked at him.

"Liliane, how's Sakura?

- What do you think?

- Hmm? I don't want to leave. I'm sorry.

Lilia nodded that she had no choice. When I told the king as it was, the king seemed unfortunate, but for some reason he had a sigh of relief. Wondering, but waiting for the continuation of the king's words.

"Apparently, Sakura doesn't want to show up in front of everyone. I can't guess what the Great Spirit thinks, but do some of you have any idea?

The king glances around. Some were blushing their faces. Are they the ones who were doing something behind it? The king raised his mouth slightly to the appearance, but immediately concealed it with no expression.

"I know you've already heard, but Sakura-sama doesn't like tough places. So you should be free to act from here."

I find it a lot of throwing. When the king sits at the nearby chair, he orders the servant on the side to bring the dishes. The servants began to work as they panicked, and the venue, which was quiet back, regained a little bit of its original hustle and noise.

When the king declares his end, he greets one, another and the king and leaves the venue. It's late at night. Lilia also wanted to go home, but she has no choice but to hang out because she doesn't show the bare impression that her family is going home. I may have no choice but to say hello because it's still happening.

Whoever greets the king will greet Lilia at the end. You behaved as if there was a sawdust there. The king also watched quietly without saying anything to it, either because he knew they were about to greet Sakura.

Apparently they still think they have Sakura with Lilia. But it can be a mistake. Lilia was the only one who could tell that, and Lilia was smiling and recieving all her greetings. Sakura, who should hear this greeting, is not here now. It makes me feel unnecessarily troublesome.

That is how few people become, and only the royal family and the Duke of Ardis and the Marquis of Agnis remain the last. Many of the servants are returned, and the only ones who remain are those who can be trusted, who will work long in the royal castle.

No one came to greet me anymore, and Lilia sighed, "Oh, boy.

"Good day, Master Liliane"

Chris says with a smile. Lilia shrugged her shoulders as she glanced half-eyed at Chris.

"I'm really tired. Say hello to me, but now there's no Sakura."

To that one word of Lilia, not only Chris, but everyone stares at Lilia with their eyes round. Lilia squeezed out her voice as she pulled her cheeks slightly, what was it?

"Liliane. Where is Sakura now?

To the king's slightly nervous voice, Lilia shook her head immediately, tilting her neck small.

"I'm sorry, but I don't either. As soon as His Majesty's story was over, he went out and left me."

"Nah...... Oh well..."

When the king looks at the door, he sees a little sympathy. The returning aristocrats were greeting Lilia thinking the words were reaching Sakura. What would they think if they knew that all of that was not even heard? I'm not even going to tell you.

"I was hoping to say hello..."

Hearing the king's words, Lilia nodded that she understood.

"What?"

Lilia called quietly as she listened to the dumb voices of everyone.

"Sakura"

"Hmm? Did you call?

Hiccup. Sakura appeared from behind Lilia. Lilia says sawdust as usual as everyone breathes.

"Where have you been?"

"Say hello to the exotic prince for a moment"

I mean, were you going to see Ray? I need to hear more about it later.

"The rest is eating and walking. It's delicious. It's delicious even if it's cold. How about Lilia? I recommend that and that."

"Bring it if you say so."

"Aisa"

A little black girl runs around the room and puts some dishes on a plate in her hand. Come right back to Lilia and hey, city! and uttered mysterious words.

"Which one?... I see it's delicious."

"Right? This is delicious, too. And then..."

"Wait. You can't eat them all at once."

The two of us pinch the dish Sakura brought, exchanging words with Sakura. When he felt his gaze and looked at the king, everyone on the spot was frozen.

"The... Are you sure...?

The king speaks to Sakura, perhaps with tension in mind. Sakura looked back, ah, and raised her voice.

"Greetings? Greetings! Evening!"

It wasn't courtesy or anything. But no one cares about it on this occasion. Lilia is the only one with a slight face, but no one, including the king, says anything, so Lilia says nothing either.

Everyone but Lilia on the spot knelt and bowed their heads. And the king saith unto Sakura, who hath been frightened.

"It is an honor and a pleasure to see you again. Sakura the Great Spirit."

"Uh...... Yes. I'm very pleased too, Your Majesty. But I don't like being tough, so I hope it's easier."

When Sakura said so with regret, the king spilled a grin and rose up in awe. Now that the king hath risen, so shall those around him rise in turn.

"The fact that you have shown yourself, may I say hello in person to those who are here?

Sakura nodded at the king's question. Take it, the king signals. Those who remained on the spot let their faces shine.
