Speaking of results, what Prince Wilfred said was true.

Having been allowed to use the castle bathroom and dressed for a new dress, I made a spiritual contract at a summons hall located in a separate building.

Al is the only one watching. It was a spiritual summons by just the two of us, but soon the spirits responded to my call. It was as easy as a lie.

"Let's respond to that call"

What appeared was a dark spirit all over his body. Unlike previous spirits, it was a male body. He wears something like black armor.

"Uh..."

When he looked at me, he nodded one thing.

"Are you my contractor? The covenant, tell me thy name."

"Li, it's Liz Beltran..."

"Liz Beltran. I'm Noir. Advanced Spirit of Darkness. From now on, as your covenant spirits, I ask you kindly."

"... yeah, nice to meet you"

It was like this that my contract ended so lightly.

I'm tempted to say what the struggle has been. In a dismal end, I stayed flat, and Al couldn't hide his surprise.

"... it can't be this easy. Was what Will said true?

I totally agreed with you about that.

Until now, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make a spiritual contract, and the cause was refreshing. That's what I could only assume his words were true because I was able to make a light contract just by following Prince Wilfred's advice.

"But I finally got a contract, didn't I?"

I'm surprised to tell Al that I came here. Tears were coming up unknowingly.

I've been feeling less of a load of mind, and I'm going to fall too much of a relief.

"Good..."

When I told him to bite off the joy, Al happily shook my hands.

"Congratulations, Lili. I'm glad you're finally making a difference."

"Al, thank you"

Zero tears of joy. Al told me that it doesn't matter if I can't make a spiritual contract, but I really didn't like it.

Al is the one who deserves the next king. You can't take someone like that away from everyone because of me. So he was determined that anything had to succeed in his spiritual covenant. That came true in its best form, and I was in a heartfelt relief.

"Al, now Al doesn't say he's getting off Prince Wang, does he?"

Just in case, when I checked, Al blinked his patsy eyes.

"Huh? Could Lili have cared about that?

"Of course."

What are you talking about? Staring at Muh Al, he opened his mouth as if in trouble.

"Nothing. I could have been either, right?

"Al!"

"Because the most important thing for me is if I can make Lili my daughter-in-law. If you can be your daughter-in-law, you can stay a prince, but if you can't, you have to get off. That's about it. You said something similar before."

I heard that, but it's a different matter of acceptability. Even as he turns pale, he stares at Al. He had a fluttering grin.

"Well, that's good. This is how Lili was able to contract safely. I'm still Prince Wang, and you don't need to talk about it."

"That's... yes"

"Right? That's everything."

Al smiles and seals my words. I thought it had been rounded up well, but in fact, he stopped talking about getting off the king prince. I thought there was no point in talking about the possibility of it not happening, reluctantly but nodded.

The Covenant Spirit with Al floating next to me - eyes on Noir.

"Heh, it's a senior spirit. Amazing, Lili."

'You 're-- oh, you don't have to tell me. You're under the protection of the advanced spirits of fire and wind. - Prince of the Kingdom of Roseblade. "

Hmm, and I moved my nose to smell it, Noir said. It was a transverse attitude, but Al nods, "Yeah," without worrying.

"Nice to meet you. As you can guess, I'm Alan. It's Alan Roseblade, Prince of the Kingdom of Roseblade. But is it easier for you to tell me that I'm your husband's future husband?

"Husband? Lord? '

Noir turns his gaze here. Black eyes have black crystals fitted in them. Looking into those eyes, I replied honestly.

"Yeah... Al is my fiancée"

'- Right. All right. Let's keep it in mind.'

"By the way, was it noir? I wonder why you responded to Lili's summons. If it's Lili's magic, I thought it would be as reasonable as an intermediate spirit. You're pretty powerful among advanced spirits, aren't you?

"Huh? Really?

I was normally listening to the fact that Noir was a 'superior spirit' because I thought that would be fine if I could make a contract anyway. But surely, as Al says, I have the magic power there, but it doesn't mean I'm very good. Previously, I was told that if I was lucky with Al's Spirit, I might be able to sign with the advanced Spirit, but I didn't think the decision was wrong that about the intermediate Spirit was reasonable.

Noir looked at Al and me, nodded one, and opened his mouth.

'... before, the Lord would have summoned the intermediate Spirit of darkness. I have always regretted that the Spirit at that time was sorry for his inability to make a covenant with the Lord. She was supposed to come out this time. But there are a few things that have changed with me. "

"Changed? Is that possible?

'It is left to the Spirit's side to decide whether or not to make a contract. If we talk about it here, we'll be fine. "

To Al's question, Noir answers pale. Should I say that I lack emotion? I have little discouragement in my voice.

- This is the advanced spirit of darkness.

Observe the noir in brave armor.

With him I contracted, from now on, I have to do it with two tripods. Though I don't know if I can get along well at this stage, I wanted to work sincerely to get along because the power of Noir, the advanced spirit of darkness, might help Al.

Al spins words that force him to convince him, "Well, that's fine if it protects Lili properly." Besides, Noir was immediately returning it as' obvious'.

Al laughs slightly at it and asks Noir.

"Then just one more thing. I see you intend to protect Lili. [M] On top of that, your situation isn't such a risk to Lili, is it?

'No. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Lord himself'

"Are you going to tell me what's going on and what's going on?

'... I don't feel the need to say it now.' Cause we're going to explain soon anyway. '

The look on Noir's face, who said so, was bitter as if he had chewed up a bunch of bitters.

Al, for now, has been convincing or nodding and turning his gaze to me.

"Well, there's something about you that I'm not sure what you're thinking, but I think you could have made a deal with a good spirit. Good for you, Lili."

"Thank you"

It's safe if Al says so.

Anyway, now we have no more obstacles. I can marry Al.

When I thought so, another joy twitched up from the joy of being able to make a spiritual covenant.

"Lili, you look happy."

"Yes."

"Yes, I'm glad too. This will get you ready for your marriage.... Engagement first? I want you to be my daughter-in-law."

They stare at me with hot eyes, less illuminating, and accidentally out of sight.

Al invites me with a sweet voice.

"Lili, don't be shy, turn around. I want you to show me your pretty face."

If you say it that way, it makes me even more embarrassed.

I laugh in a voice that Al seems to enjoy when he sees me turning bright red. I found that the voice seemed to really enjoy it and Al was sincerely happy that I was able to make the contract.

- Good for you, really.

I had a spiritual contract.

I've made a lot of people worry, and I've been worried about it for a long time, but as a result I was able to make a deal with the senior spirits, so I thought that everything that was already hard could flow into the water.
