(Nevertheless)

Murietta said someone told Aldar about Madame Cedritus… so he abandoned his country and chose his freedom.

Well, as a prerequisite, it's also when we're acting together with her, so first of all, it's not the status quo... anyway, it's fallen apart.

No, she told me about it, and when she told it to her superiors, the possibility of 'secrets being passed on to Aldar with an extra tail from a third party' was well thought out.

That way, Count Baum would nod to explain the facts properly to his son.

(... Murietta-san, you should have told me that story to shake me, but it turned out to be a snake...)

I didn't mean for this to happen, and I was just surprised... well, I thought it would be natural to think calmly about the situation.

Of course I'm not going to talk to Murietta about whether Aldar knows the truth, but she'll be disappointed to hear it.

Well, in the first place, as a big premise, it is different from what I said as "the mother's problem in the situation where Aldar and his family are intersecting", so whatever the process, I think the result may not be the same as it is now.

It was amazing what Aldar told me, but he was able to communicate with his current family as a valued family, and he quickly overcome his worried mother... no, it's not light.

I think there was a lot of conflict in Aldar, somewhere I don't know.

However, I was totally in a good mood for his kind smile without feeling the dust, delicious food and alcohol.

No, no, it's because you're happy with a lot of good things, right?

Aldar's business calmed down, and he wasn't injured. That's all I was happy about. Besides, I heard such a good story!

I didn't care what Murietta said about Aldar knowing about her mother.

I thought it would be okay because it was going well with my family.

But you're not gonna get hurt, are you?

I was worried about that.

Anyway, I couldn't step foot into the delicate part of the other party where I took the initiative to say, "I know it, I can support it", and above all, it was a confidential conversation in the course of my duties...

In the end, all I could think about was worrying secretly.

But don't worry about that anymore!

"I'm sorry, I'll leave it entirely up to you to pay..."

"No, it's fine. I'm glad that Julia is making another delicious meal."

"Well, I don't think that's worth the price, but, yeah, of course."

After leaving the shop, we started walking slowly to the carriage stop towards the royal castle.

I could have called the carriage here!

It combines a little drunkenness and post-prandial exercise. I can't wipe off the feeling of eating too much delicious food, so I have to exercise a little at a time like this, my stomach is around... no, nothing.

Of course, let Aldar escort you!

It's only natural to walk with your hands tied together like this.

Sometimes we can't see each other when we're busy because we're social people, but it's really nice to spend time when we calm down like this.

I'm sorry that Aldar is so sweet all the time, but I'll try my best to prepare sweets and alcohol that will please Aldar!

If it's time, I'll have Metabon tell me the recommended alcohol and buy it.

Metabon Tsutse will be reliable and reassuring.

"But why are you outside? If you didn't want anyone to ask you in the castle, you could have stayed in my room."

"Hmm? Yeah, well... it was kind of like a little celebration."

Aldar smiled a little and said that, so he somehow lit me up. Because I thought it was something I wanted to celebrate!

Telepathy?

No, I know that's not true!

"... one day, I guess, it's about the future. Is your father retiring or hiding, or is this the case? I was hoping to hear about my mother in the future."

Eh?

"Family is family, and maybe my real mother is dead or something like that? I was wondering if I could go to the grave."

Oh, I see. It's not strange that there's such a possibility...

I don't even know if my real mother is alive or dead. That was the situation.

I heard about Mrs. Credritas, so I was just worried that Aldar would get hurt if he found out... he's been thinking a lot for a long time.

But around the time I didn't want to hear about it that far, I felt like I was wondering how much I shouldn't have talked about this topic in the Baum family.

"I didn't know who it was, and maybe I'm building a happy family somewhere. If I had been here a while ago, I would have thought I'd finally have no place for myself."

"Huh?

Unexpectedly, I raised my voice. Oh, my God, there's nowhere to be found!

But Aldar laughed funny at me.

"I was honestly upset when I was summoned and said, 'I have a story about my mother.' I was hoping to ask you one day, but you don't have to do it now. That's what surprised me."

"... is that so?

"Yeah, I guess I was afraid to ask, but it wasn't a big deal, I just thought," Oh, is that so? "

Suddenly, Aldar grabbed my hand a little harder.

If I raise my face, I can see him laughing gently.

"It's so happy to be next door when someone wants to hear this feeling."

"... yeah. Talk to me whenever you can. I'll talk to you too."

Happy.

I was happy to hear that from Aldar.

I still don't know what I'm going to do, and even though I'm immature and often reflective and worried, I'm really blessed to have a lover, to have a boss and a colleague who is blessed at work, to have a respectable boss and a lovely junior, to serve the princess as a lovely girl, and to admire her as a lovely and kind mother.

"... Yulia-sama..."

Almost there, at the carriage station, I felt called.

Turning to the voice who might have seen the face even though there were many people, Murietta stood there so that she could be mistaken among the many people.

She's not alone, she seems to be with Mr. Talbot. I wonder if she is going back to the hospital or something.

"Mr. Murietta."

As I called that name, Aldar hugged me.

I thought, as if nothing had happened, Aldar was walking out and calling out to the person in the carriage, so I couldn't get any closer to her, and she was just staring at us again.

(... didn't I have anything in particular to do...?

When she was prompted to ride the carriage, Murietta was also pushed by Talbot to walk out.
