In My Previous Life I Was a Saint, but Now I Want to Cut Corners
Chapter 49 Ancestral Kings
Lenalia Sheridan is Cecil's cousin, but she didn't interact at all until she came to school.
Elizabeth, the mother of Lenalia, was a princess born of her grandfather, the maid of the late King, and was raised in hiding in the abbey from her origins.
Cecil's grandmother, the princess of a great power who was often at odds with her grandfather's generation, is a woman of great pride.
In the Royal Ertoria, women are often chosen to be mates while enrolled in magic schools.
Unless they're civilians, they're not allowed to marry, but nobles are allowed to marry.
The ancient kings also cultivated love with the countess, who belonged to the Wind Magic Class, and planned to announce their engagement after graduation.
However, in order to conclude a peace treaty with the great powers, the ancestral King, who was the Crown Prince, visited a country on behalf of the King, and the late Princess of that country fell in love with the ancestral King at a glance.
The king of great powers was in love with the late princess, who had been born since he was old.
That's why I made the peace treaty conditional on marrying my ancestral king in order to make the love of a lovely last-minute princess come true.
Naturally, the engagement between the ancestral King and the Countess became a dead letter, and the Countess went to the monastery with much sorrow.
The princess of the end of the great power thus greeted behaved like her native country in Eltoria.
It was only natural that everyone should honor themselves, and the ancestral kings did not doubt that they were happy to marry them.
Indeed, at first, the ancestral king tried to stay close to the princess.
However, the ancestral king was tired of marrying the pride and fierce character of the queen.
And when the prince was born, the ancestral kings stopped visiting the queen.
It was Shigemitsu who panicked.
No matter how many successive princes were born, there was trouble when there was something going on alone.
But the ancestral kings did not go to the queen because they had only fulfilled their duty.
So they sent to the king some beautiful things worthy of a pet princess, but the king's ancestors did not look.
As if to sacrifice your life, but as if it were only your role to give yourself to this country, you encouraged hard work - and fell.
To the ancestral kings, who had no energy to live, the ministers summoned as maids their former lover, the Countess, who had lived prudently as a nun, only with the last hope.
As a result, the Countess became a princess and was given a corner of the royal palace, and Elizabeth, the mother of Lenaria, was born.
However, the second fell ill during pregnancy and died with the child in his belly.
Rumor has it that the grandmother, who was the queen of the ancestral king, whispered to Makoshiya that she might have poisoned the jealous princess, but Cecil also thinks she would have done so.
After the collapse of his grandfather, who lost his princess and lost his temper to live, Cecil's father, who felt pitiful for his young sister, would have lost Elizabeth if he had not immediately sent her to the guarded convent.
Within the royal palace, where grandmothers still exercise great power as queens, the stories of Elizabeth and the Marquis of Sheridan are taboos.
But that's why Leonardo and Cecil's brothers were interested.
I was too weak to imagine who Elizabeth's beauty was, secretly told by his father, who had married the daughter of a maid, the Countess, who had come to Eldria with the Empress, as recommended by the Empress.
So Leonardo, who enrolled with Arthur, the illegitimate son of the Marquis of Sheridan at the Magic School, was forced to become a friend despite Arthur's annoyance.
Cecil is impressed that his brother's strengths are also helpful because he is now so close to his best friend.
And when I heard that Lenalia, the Marquis of Sheridan, was in the same school year, Cecil couldn't help but hope.
Lenalia said that she was very similar to Elizabeth because she had never been able to see it, so she was only looking forward to it.
I had hoped to see how beautiful she would be, but for the first time I saw her, she looked too mediocre.
The royal Tanzanian eyes are impressive, and if you look closely, you can see their face is ready.
However, there is a tendency to lie down and give a more plain impression.
But I realized that it was a makeup pseudo-state, and I wondered what the real face was like.
I want to be able to speak more intimately someday.
You can't be like Leonardo and Arthur because you're not men, but you're still like normal cousins.
So...
"I'll find it with you."
"Your Highness, what are you saying?Please return to school as soon as possible. "
The lead knight disagreed, but Cecil did not bend his opinion.
"Colleen and the others will be safe from here.The Guard Knights will come with me to find Lenalia.What about Lambert?
"Of course I will."
"Yeah, but don't push it."
As Lambert lowered his head deeply, Cecil nodded to the eagle.
I'm not a guard knight yet, so I don't have to take him with me, but I thought it would be hard to leave a lambert that wanted to be a knight soon.
"Your Highness!"
"Lenalia is my cousin.And it would be your duty to protect the royal Tanzanian eye, wouldn't it?
"But..."
"It's not like I decided to go outside the boundaries.It would be a waste of time to do this.Let's go. "
Cecil turned to Klaus, the guardian knight of Lenalia.
"What materials did Lenalia say she was looking for?
"No, just the ingredients of aerial choice."
"Do you like aerial ingredients....."
The aerial ecology is not well understood because there is nothing to see.
When Cecil thought about what the Spirit liked in the first place, a small voice was heard from the side.
"Ah, um..."
Cecil looked back, and there was a strange girl student there.
I can't hear very well because I'm looking down and talking bluntly.
What can I do for you?
The guard knight shouted sharply and the girl student murmured even more.
"Ah, eh, um..."
The strange Cecil controls the guard knight and speaks softly.
"What's going on?
Cecil waited, and the girl said in a small voice.
"Um... Lenalia-san... uh, that way..."
Marie Wilkinson of the Wind Magic Class squeezed all her courage and pointed her in the direction where Lenaria's magic was visible.
