His Royal Highness's cats are very hairy.
Episode 10: Picnic at Night ②
"Why are you so bad?
"Oh, um... because... so..."
Bosoboso and Adeline responded, but that voice, too small, did not seem to reach Rutvias' ears.
Rutvias roared as if he were a beast.
"Ahhh!?"
"So, because... because it's plain!
Adeline gave up herself and raised her voice. Rutvias distorts its neat face, now bewildered.
"... Huh?
"Because my face is plain! So I'm sure the knights are having a hard time remembering!
What sad and pitiful circumstances must I explain?
To such an embarrassment Adeline's face is red tide and tears appear in her eyes.
"............ pu..."
Overhead, Adeline looked up unexpectedly when she heard a blowing noise.
-... laughed now?
Rutvias couldn't see his face because he had his hands on his forehead, but his mouth was obviously loose.
-... laughed!
Instead of wearing a cat and smiling, this is the first time I've really seen Rutvias laugh.
It's an impossible phenomenon for a statue to laugh at, and Adaline finds herself wondering if she can't somehow see that rare phenomenon.
But Rutvias coughed up one with Gohon on purpose, so he stretched his spine in a hurry.
"... nothing... you're not plain.... That's not a flashy face, but, well, average..."
"... it's called plain..."
Bad consolation spreads the wound the other way. It would be some better if you laughed in grandeur.
But it's too surprising that Rutvias made a statement that cares about Adeline, and Adeline is nowhere to be discouraged.
Rutvias didn't try to make eye contact with Adeline, but its side looks somewhat softer than usual.
Something that made me laugh earlier, maybe it stinks of lightning.
"... so? You were gonna go for a picnic at night, too?
Rutvias saw the cage falling back into Adeline's hands and said, Chirali.
It was a forceful topic change, but I have no objection to Adeline about ending the topic of appearance.
"... this is..."
Lift the cage to chest height.
"I brought this to Your Highness."
"... me?
Rutvias, as surprised, saw Adeline.
Adeline nods.
"Yes. Um... you didn't seem to eat much dinner..."
My heart broke on the crushed bread in the cage. I wasted what you made because of me. I have to apologize to Millet.
Hiya, and Rutvias peered into the cage. Adeline shakes her shoulders docilely at that proximity, which she didn't care about until then. Rutvias didn't even look like he noticed it and reached into the cage.
"Is that a vanilla roast?
"Yes, um..."
What he was going to do, Rutvias pinched a chunk of chicken in front of a surprised Adeline and threw it into his mouth without hesitation.
-... I ate!!
The blood on Adeline's body caught my temper at once.
"Your Highness! That... eh"
The polished hallway is not clean enough to replace dishes because of that.
"No!! Please spit it out!!"
"Why?"
You know why, you know why.
Regardless of the rushing Adeline, Rutvias throws crushed bread into his mouth again.
"CAAAAAAAAA!!"
"Shut up. Shut up for a second"
Taking the cage out of Adeline's hand, Rutvias put it on the desk. And when he sits gently on his desk himself, he grabs a bottle of lemonade and pulls out the cork.
-... I'm going to eat it!!
Adeline managed to stop Rutvias.
"Um, you know, it fell..."
'Cause I got kicked.
"If you feel unwell..."
"That's when it happened."
Keep your mouth on the bottle and drink it dry. Adeline, bewildered, approached near Rutvias about time.
I can't believe Rutvias is going to act like this. If this is even around meals, Rutvias is the only direct line boy in the Royal family of Rude Saxony. It's important to the country.
Rutvias quickly flattened the food in the cage as Adeline watched for harrassment.
"It was good"
Rutvias presses the cage against Adeline as she licks the salt on her finger. While receiving it, Adaline bowed her head.
"Yes..."
"Well..."
Rutvias arms up and hands on his forehead. Adeline fell in love unexpectedly, as her golden thread hair flowed sarally. The tricks and words are often abusive and surprising, but it is perfectly strange that his beauty is not compromised by it. Rutvias seemed to think of something, but it was slightly more beautiful and raised its beautiful face. I'm sitting on my desk, so my gaze is about the same as Adeline's. Adeline's heartbeat bounced with one dokun.
"Make a statement in the future, even in the mansion. Fine."
"... Yes"
"Then..."
Separate words, Rutvias leans down.
"... and then don't despise yourself.... plain or something... stop.
"... yeah..."
Adeline couldn't help but be confused when she said something unexpected. Being unsure of Rutvias' sincerity and hesitating to reply, Rutvias urged Adeline in a grumpy manner as she leaned down.
"Reply!"
"Ha, yes!!"
Conditionally reflective, Adeline replied. Still, Rutvias seems satisfied.
"... All right"
A splendid cat is already seated over its head, which rises softly and upright.
Rutvias crossed the room in a motion where there was no waste, and opened the door. Beyond that are the prime ministers lined up. With the door open, everyone paid attention to Rutvias and waited for the word. Looking over their faces, Rutvias quietly announces the final decision.
"... both names shall be returned to duty after five days of prudence"
"It's..."
Rutvias took control of Adeline's father, who opened his mouth.
"This is a temper treatment only this time. Tell Her Royal Highness, the King of the Merciful Future, to give her more loyalty in the future."
"... Yes, sir."
Seeing his father bow his head, Adeline howled his chest down.
"Someone. Adeline, please."
"Yes, sir."
After instructing the nearest knight to send Adeline to her room, Rutvias was listening and nodding at the chancellor's change of plans. The side of it, quiet and intelligent, does not seem like the same person as the beast who hunted Adaline down to the wall earlier. The cat Rutvias owns seems to be very good.
Calm, rational. A soft, but good way to talk about your sophistication.
It's called its appearance, I'm sure if he becomes Prince Wang, he'll get tremendous support from his subordinates and the people. It's just the perfect king prince.
There is as much difference in attitude as there is in heaven and earth due to cat attachment and detachment, but perhaps there is no sway in his underlying essence.
Speaking of the way knights were, he was undoubtedly proud of his responsibilities as a royal being awarded the Knight's Degree.
I can honestly respect that figure.
-... and...
Besides, he told me not to despise myself.
-... I've never been told that before...
Adeline's father often told Adeline, 'What the queen needs is not an appearance,' she said. I mean, it's like they say 'You're not beautiful' over and over again.
I knew that I was reading too deeply, and that it was a word I thought of my father's daughter, but Adeline was secretly hurt.
He seems to be a father who values fairness, but even if he sees it for a little while because he is his only daughter... I have had a grudge.
Adeline is by no means clumsy, but as one day she will stand as queen, nothing more than plain. Some people said Adeline was beautiful, but Adeline wasn't even stupid enough to see they were talking about a social dictionary.
Unbeknownst, where I was worried about my appearance, it was a disengagement disturbance three years ago. The inferiority of Adeline's appearance became decisive when Rutvias heard that the person he chose was a beautiful woman.
Oh, if I were more beautiful, I would.
But Rutvias at the time said. 'Don't be demeaning'.
Beautiful, I did not insult Adeline that she would be in the mood of Adeline just at the tip of her tongue.
That made me too surprised and confused for Adeline.
-... I thought they told me to stay put...
Rutvias' words reached Adeline's ears, as they affirmed Adeline's appearance. I thought they said it wasn't beautiful, but it was good as it was.
Adeline laughed at herself, wondering if that was taking the word too well.
From the mouth, I can laugh unexpectedly.
"What's wrong with you?
Rutvias, who talked to the Chancellor and thought he would keep going, came back to the side of Adeline.
"... no. No, it's nothing."
Adeline shook her head laughing couscous.
Above Rutvias' head, with his suspiciously frowned upon, the cat is slipping off and panicking.
I'm sure Rutvias wouldn't even think of it as dewy. such as how much my own words brightened Adaline's mind.
laughing, Adeline said.
"I didn't thank you. Thank you for your help earlier. Thank you so much for your concern for me."
"Oh?"
What are you talking about, Rutvias' overhead cat, who distorted his face in a grumpy manner, is completely slippery. The doors remain open, but the Chancellors remain refrained from doing so in the hallway, so they will not notice any change in Rutvias' attitude.
I didn't find Adeline too scared, for some reason, of the rough Rutvias.
I thought it was a lot better than Rutvias, the faceless eye I saw in the hallway earlier.
Maybe I've simply gotten used to it.
"Have some of this."
Empty cage, Adeline lifts just a little.
"... sticky"
Adeline became laughable when she realized that he was actually lit. He's like a child.
Couscous and I can't stop laughing.
"Huff, you know, if your stomach hurts, huff, please tell me. I'll have your pills ready... Hugh, no, I can't stop."
Rutvias stared strangely at Adeline, who kept laughing.
The first time I've seen his expression like that, Adeline can pull in a pittance of laughter. It could have been just disrespectful.
"Su... Su Ma, Sen. Um..."
"... prepare your medicine."
That's all Rutvias said, he put the cat back on and left the room.
-... maybe he's not a bad person.
At least, like Millet said, it doesn't look like your sexual roots are bent.
-... Also, would you laugh...
I want to see his real smile. That would surely be much more beautiful than a smile like a saint wearing a cat.
