Nice to meet you, Mr. Edgar.

Close the Black Fan, pinch the dress fabric a little, and greet Edgar.

Courtesy is important because you are a royal stepchild and stepchild!However, do not overly recline.

"It's nice to meet you.It's a pleasant morning. "

A soft response came back from Edgar-sama.----It's good, but you're still looking at me carefully. Ten seconds?

And Edgar-sama nodded convincingly.

"Besides, I'm relieved. Enoch told me how it was.Because I didn't see it with my own eyes.Anyway, I said it was forbidden to go to the sympathy... but my complexion looks good. "

Ah...

Someone is also restricted from visiting my room.Is it Edgar-sama?It seems that my father came to see me as an exception.

"Yes, it doesn't interfere with everyday life at all"

I answered with a smile.

Apply the medicine and change the black fan to the left hand with the bandage tightly wrapped.It hurts a little when I move it.But! Hold on here.

Appeal to be healthy!

"I'm just going for a walk in the garden.Is Edgar-sama going for a walk this morning? "

"... this morning too?"

Edgar-sama, who blinked behind the glasses, pushed in.

I remember seeing Edgar-sama in this garden before I went to the midnight workout...

Just fine. Let's check it out.

"Last night, I had the opportunity to walk around the castle with my brother.At that time, I saw Edgar through the window facing the aisle.You were in this garden, right? "

"Hmm...."

Edgar-sama put one hand on her chin.

"Did they see you?"

I started asking questions and looked bad.

"I went out without permission.I'd like Enoch to keep quiet if possible.... "

The shock ran.

"Dear Edgar, were you really alone last night...?Without your father's permission? "

I never thought my father would know.

Because I care about Edgar-sama!There are no fights in public, but when Edgar's business is likely to be dangerous, I will stop - although that is not true, I will always make a request to strengthen the security system.

Appear to be too careful for Edgar's safety.

No, it doesn't seem like I'm bound, and if I don't know where Edgar-sama is... is she worried and unbearable if she's not within sight?

But, Edgar-sama, it's too challenging to walk in silence with your father in the middle of the night...

Father, if you find out, you're going to be bald!

Fatigue?

The knight of Edgar's escort is also with his father.And all of them were chosen from the knights of their father's guards.I have origami on my arm, but I also have the role of reporting to my father every day whether Edgar-sama is able to spend time together.

That's why I feel my father's overprotections for Edgar.

In the meantime, no matter how light the footwork was, I went out quietly to my father... and Edgar-sama checked it out from the guard knight...!

Even though it's a journey in the castle, someone is coming with me.

How the hell did you do that?

I can't believe it's a complete solitary act, but rather a trick!I want you to teach me how to do it, Edgar!Maybe you can use it when you want to spin a fuse!

"Even if I was alone, of course I took the guards."

But Edgar-sama said lightly.

Me too early...

You shouldn't be disappointed, but you've been disappointed.

Let's sneak up on Clifford. The operation and all the other plans disappeared automatically.

If I may say so, the knight of Edgar's escort is still standing far away.I don't think I can hear this conversation, but it's close enough to get us there right away.

"That's fine, but...."

"You're worried, aren't you? Thanks."

Edgar smiles with a smile.... Eyebless. Edgar-sama also reaffirmed that she had a different type of beauty.

My father's partner. He's my mother!

Friendly family on the surface. But not at all in the sense of parent-child relationships.

Of the royal children - my brother, me and Alec - my brother is the closest to Edgar-sama.However, even if you skip it on the surface, it's not like I'm a bad friend.

In fact, I don't remember Edgar-sama snoring like a stepchild.Instead, it was my brother's fans who were bad in that sense!

I couldn't be sweet or nostalgic as a parent, but Edgar-sama also said, "My daughter!I don't feel like pushing it - I don't think it's that bad for each other as individuals.

I wonder if Edgar-sama... will be able to keep a sense of distance.I want you to stay away from me. I want you to avoid the aura, and I want you to talk. I want you to respond to the aura.

In fact, I am continuing to issue the "Let's Talk" aura that is currently in progress.Well... I can't see the aura.... the atmosphere!

Because while there are extremely few people to contact, this is a valuable encounter with others!

I'm hungry for conversation! Come on, Aura!

"... so why don't we walk a little together, Octavia?"

Edgar caught my aura!

"Happy. - Hugh, you stay away from me."

Thank you for your invitation and give Hugh instructions.Don't forget he's also your brother's spy!

"Do as I say."

Hugh lowered his head.

Edgar and I walked out of the garden side by side.

Edgar twisted his neck looking back at Hugh, who followed us at a distance - there was also a knight of Edgar's escort nearby.

"Hugh was the Knight of Celius' Guard, wasn't he?"

I can't help wondering.

Speaking of Hugh, my brother's heart.Set. That's what it looks like.

"Due to my brother's considerations, I was temporarily asked to serve as my escort."

Because it is very important, I casually emphasized that it is temporary.

"What? You didn't interrupt the meeting."

Yes, sir?

"Maybe Hugh was a secret lover...I was going to tell Enoch. "

"... Mr. Edgar?"

It's practically rudimentary!

With protest in mind, send a strong gaze.

Then Edgar-sama burst out.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

He came to tease me with a smile.

"You're kidding too much. I'll be looking forward to the day of the show."

"... yes, stay tuned"

I opened the "black fan" to cover the love laughter that was about to attract me.

Instead of looking forward to it, uh-huh. The semi-primary party ended up empty, and you didn't even have a vision for a fake lover...

The target is the person who was depicted as an enemy in the original!Rust, who came into contact with me, fell off the list of candidates.You didn't even cut it out, or you couldn't psychologically...

With restrictions on movement, there are even fewer heterosexuals to meet.Considering the remaining period of time, we are at a stage where we cannot make a choice.

So, what did Edgar say, Hugh?

Ask Hugh to give it a try.

I shook my head in my heart.

I can't imagine a future that will succeed at the moment!Lust still seems to have a better chance of simple success if you ask.

At least if it had the same relationship as the original, I might have been able to easily ask... but in that case, to my brother in the first place, "Do you even love me?"is also activated.

If only I really had a lover...!

Love is everywhere!

--One of the living samples is Edgar-sama.

Yeah, well, now I nod in my heart.

I was married to my father over my gender and identity.It is famous as a love pottery. As much as you can, it's a story, obviously.... but if I hadn't even talked about my father, a rotten woman's soul would have burned.

If Edgar-sama had been kidnapped and his father was in time, I would have loved to read it as a complete two-dimensional novel and roll around!In my previous life, when I had my parents' novels, I bought them!

--But it's not fiction.

Perhaps the fact that my father is nervous about Edgar-sama's safety is due to the fact that there was such a past.It's like a mourning fear.

Considering that....

Looking up at Edgar-sama walking next door.Because he is an adult man, he is definitely taller than me.

"When Edgar went out last night, are you okay to keep quiet with your father?"

Edgar-sama smiles bitterly.

"To be precise, they keep quiet about taking a walk in this garden late at night.I just didn't get permission for which one.... by the way, Enoch doesn't like this garden very much. "

Really?

Why would you do that?

Edgar answered quietly when he looked at my face, even though he didn't answer the question.

"... probably because it was the garden that the previous King maintained himself."

"Your grandfather?"

Was he a waster and jewelry collector, Grandfather?When he was Prince Wang, his father often argued with his grandfather without sharing his opinions. After ceding the throne to his father, he didn't come to King's Landing at all until his death.

That's my grandfather, the previous king.I visited my grandfather's castle, which I renovated after hiding, but it was all sparkling with gold and jewelry.Beyond the glamorous and luxurious realm, one step closer to evil tastes?

To be honest, like taking care of the garden...

"Can't imagine?"

"Yes"

I nodded honestly.

I have never heard of my grandfather, who passed away when I was eight.

When I was king, I gathered my favorite beauty figures and played with men intensely...A merchant looked at my feet and found me ducking...It's just about personal life.

As a king, he did quite well.At the very least, the country was not inclined.My father seemed to be rebelling.

My grandfather...

--From the perspective of my grandfather, it should be noted that it was the standing position of Lord Kilgren's brother.

Like Lord Kilgren, he died of aging.Basically, if nothing happens, the male royal family seems to live a long life.

I think of a portrait decorated in a castle that is more familiar to me than my grandfather.

The impression of my grandfather in life is that he looks boring in a degraded atmosphere.I remember feeling like I was trying to bury it with a luxury.

My grandson didn't seem to be interested in my brother, me or Alec at all...In the sense of being in line, it was fair.

Then....

"What did Edgar think of your grandfather?"

"What kind of...."

Paused Edgar stretched out his hand to one of Leishlan's flowers in the garden.

"He was weak and very kind.That's why I planted these flowers here. "

"--Leishlan?"

I looked at the white dyed garden, imitating Edgar.

Flowers with good scent and beautiful white petals.

Speaking of which, this is the only garden in the castle where Leishlan is so full of blossoms.

... did my grandfather do that?

Weak and gentle...

But if my grandfather had what Edgar said, why would he plant Leishlan flowers?

No matter how much I have knowledge of the original novel, it does not depict the events of my father and Edgar's generation.

Reach out to the white petals.

"Last night."

I stopped just before I touched it. Look at Edgar-sama who spoke.

I had a bad dream.

Edgar held the treasure and turned his face to the Leishlan flower in his arm.

"The smell of these flowers calms my mind."

I remember nightmares, too.I hate it. I couldn't tell anyone.

But Edgar-sama has someone to take care of.

"Edgar has a father.Why don't you talk to your father about your bad dreams? "

The wind blew hard. Her hair is tied up and she presses it with her hands.

I heard a murmur from the side immediately.

"... to Enoch?"

A smile was engraved on Edgar-sama's face.

... I don't know. It feels weird.

For a moment, I felt like a shadow of darkness in your voice and expression.

With a smile on his face, Edgar continued his words.

"Can't you tell Enoch about your dream?"

Can't you talk?

"Yes, because I don't want to talk.Besides, Enoch can't help it. "

I never spoke loudly.However, I am confused by the strength of the words I have affirmed.

A few seconds have passed.It was Edgar who opened his mouth first.

"... I'm sorry, I surprised you."

Sighs and laughs bitterly.

"Octavia sounds good. Don't talk to me like that...."

As I know, Edgar put his index finger to his mouth as usual.

"So I'm glad you kept it a secret from Enoch."

"That's...."

Naturally, she had a disgusting face. I couldn't accept it.

Master Edgar, don't you have any troubles?

I think it's better to tell my father that I can't do anything...

"- By the way, I wonder if Octavia is in trouble."



"I can help you if you want."

The bait, the fishing bait was thrown...!

I remembered that Edgar was a former merchant.

Speaking of identity, Edgar is number two in Esphia.

My brother can't come out strongly either. Here's the point!

If Alec were here, the story would be different, but in Alec's absence, Danton's side candidate would lend it to me in the royal castle to break the status quo.

And Edgar suggests that if I keep quiet with my father, I will help.The silence itself is a private matter.

I don't want to take advantage of this opportunity...

Dear Edgar,

Close the "Black Fan" in front of your face and look directly at Edgar-sama's burning brown eyes.

Yeah?

"I can't accept that offer."

Not enough money?

I shaken it for the first time.

"That's not what I meant.Because I can't promise you that I will remain silent with my father.Master Edgar, if you have any idea what's causing this nightmare - and if it has anything to do with your father, please discuss it with him properly. "

…………

Edgar-sama, with a neat face, smiled with a dull smile over her glasses.

"I see. That's how Octavia gets here."

That's right!

I have no choice but to take this chance!I don't know....!

Friends who have suffered from nightmares for many years (just certified!), even if Edgar-sama's power could no longer be borrowed, he did not jump.

On the way to the semi-dance party, it was similar to the case when Sil asked me not to let my brother know in the carriage, but I knew from the original knowledge that the problem would eventually be solved.

Not with Mr. Edgar and my father.

Extra care? But I don't think it will be okay as it is.Basically, this pattern pulls the tail.The one that spills! The one that ignites and explodes when left unattended!I won't help you light it!

"Alright... I can't force you to do that."

Negotiations are broken, aren't they?

No, half is done.

... hmm?

"Because I was willing to help Octavia, even without a barter."

Edgar said with a lovely, decorative smile.
