Legend

'Hmm, I see. A cadet school on the Duke of Quent's territory? I've heard that story before. "

As every night...... that's too much to say, but still a conversation between Elaine and Ray at night that takes place every two to three days using a pair of orbs.

Ray had also felt for a long time having a conversation with Elaine, as she had been traveling to Graciar for the past few days.

"Are you famous after all?

'Mm-hmm. I'm talking about a lot of competent figures in the Duke of Quent Knights. There's something similar in the Duke of Keller, but it's not the size of the Duke of Quent's territory. "

Ray gives a convincing look at the words coming out of Elaine's mouth, recalling the size of this cadet school.

In fact, it was clear that the size of this cadet school was considerable and that many existed as pupils of this school.

Most importantly, Ray himself hasn't seen most of the students yet.

After I left the school director's office, I was instructed to show Samaroon the school facilities, but whether it was a consideration for Samaroon or because the crowded area was not very close.

Still, some students even looked at it from a distance.

'If you thought I hadn't heard from you in the last few days, that would have caused it.... Nevertheless, it's been a lot of fun again'

"As far as I'm concerned, it's not that funny."

Elaine smiled softly at Ray, who shrugged her shoulders small.

Only Elaine, who originally had a delicate face, is attracted to the unexpectedly soft look on her face.

Ray opens his mouth while keeping it out of the table.

"Anyway. I'm going to be in this cadet school until spring, so if you're a 'seed of admonition'..."

'I don't have a problem with being released a little late. And I'm sorry to say this, but I'm having some problems. "

"Problem?"

"Hmm. There's a house among the aristocrats that I recently replaced. The man is giving me a little."

"... a little?

Two things come to mind behind Ray's brain when he hears those words.

That is, he who thinks of eliminating Elaine with his sight and with his strength, and he who wants Elaine as a woman.

Especially since Elaine herself is a very attractive being, it was an undeniable fact that the latter is very likely.

"Apparently he wants to have an edge with the Duke of Kelevel family, and he's trying to catch my attention somehow"

And the fact is, Ray's worries are meddling.

"... heh"

Ray's voice, whispered small, was releasing a force that would undoubtedly cause fear to run on his spine if he heard it.

But it wasn't fear but laughter that brought Elaine to mind when she heard Ray grunt like that.

Nor is that such a thing as a bitter smile or an attractive grin, but something that should also be called a full grin full of joy.

'Heh heh, don't worry. Of course I'm not interested in such a man. I said no on the spot. "

"So I hope the other one gives up."

It has the power of a house called the Duke of Kelp, Elaine with the alias of a princess general, and even the beauty that a man would not attract to whoever he was.

Furthermore, although only to such an extent as those who know it are still known, some have inherited the power of the enchanted dragon on the altar of inheritance.

So single and unmatched by fiancées, it is also an excellent property for an ambitious nobleman.

At that time, the presence of Ray is rarely a problem.

For those who are after Elaine, Ray is a rank B adventurer with an alias, because we believe that marriage between nobles is a completely different story.

It would be incredible to be asked in person that we are among those who like each other.

'No problem. Originally, I'm not in the mood for the Duke of Kelp. Besides, if they imitate me strangely... then I can't keep this one quiet.'

The grin that Elaine had with those words is a very belligerent one.

That's the grin Vihella would look good on floating if it were meant to be.

If you get lost in the blood and the man hits you to make a fait accompli with Elaine, the man will regret it in many ways.

Ray, who understood it, opens his mouth to change the subject.

"With that said, what happened to the Yellow?

"Yeah? I heard you had too much dinner. I'm asleep now. '

You guessed Ray's desire to change the subject, but Elaine doesn't say anything in particular and goes along with it.

Even for Elaine, it was probably because she didn't want to talk about other guys - especially about marriage - in front of Ray any more.

"Right. Seto must be asleep in the stables by now, too."

'What kind of meals do you get when you're in cadet school? Obedience...... if that means Ray's obedience too, can we hope? Especially in this case, Ray got caught up in the King's Gotthagota. "

"I don't know. Dining out in the cafeteria in the staff dorm was normal."

Most importantly, Ray's tongue is never sharp in taste.

No, considering you don't like alcohol, you could describe it as your child's tongue.

... I also like and eat things that children don't like like like mountain vegetables.

'I mean Ray, you probably ate a ton of food?

"I won't deny that"

It was Elaine who sees through about herself, but Ray doesn't feel strange and unpleasant listening to those words.

If this was a word from another person, it probably wasn't the same story.

(Probably saying this is the kind of person you can't care about)

Ray considers the past since he met Elaine to be a smudge.

I guess that came out of the look. Elaine, who was reaching for tea on the other side of the pair of orbs, opens her mouth strangely.

"Ray, what's wrong?

"No, kind of. Seems like a long time has passed since I met Elaine, but I actually thought it was only a few years or so."

'... Hmm. Right. I feel like it's been a long time since I met Ray, too. That's what... No, it's nothing'

"What's going on? It doesn't seem like Elaine would stop on her way."

"Shut up. Sometimes I'm not feeling well either"

Ray tilts his neck gently at how Elaine tells her as she dyes her thin cheeks red.

Because I thought that if it was Elaine, who always talks, she wouldn't behave like this...

Most importantly, for Ray, maiden heart is one of the most incomprehensible things in the world.

If I couldn't ask any more, I could easily imagine that would be a situation that would be detrimental to me around.

That's why Ray continues to change the subject again earlier.

"The Kings were talking about moving forward with the Solemnity of Discipline on this one, but what about the aristocrats? If I may say so in my personal sense, the same is true of the aristocrats, who need the Solemnity of Discipline. No, I know it's not like neutralists can be completely relieved."

It was a topic that suddenly changed, but the look on Elaine's face when she hears it gives rise to slight worry.

For a good understanding of what nobility lies at the heart of his father's aristocracy.

Is that the bad name of the aristocracy, which is followed by those who behave mightily against the people they themselves govern?

Of course, many people in the upper echelons understand the area properly, and few behave tyrannically.

… Fewer does not mean that none of them, which means that there are those in the upper echelons who, as always, are solidified in the nobility's sense of privilege.

"I'm pretty sure this one will have to hit some kind of hand, too, than the Kings went out by such means. Otherwise, unlike the Kings, nobles might not be told they have a purifying effect. '

"I see. Is that why you use it as a means of attack?... Well, still, it's an unmistakable fact that the Kings exposed all that ugliness, so I don't think you can imitate it that way."

'Sweet. Aristocrats are good at adding to their weaknesses. Because you think I'm gonna miss this great opportunity?

"If you say that, the Kings are more vulnerable, aren't they?

Needless to say, one case with Ray is responsible for the King's attempts to achieve a solemn discipline this time.

To be precise, it was the beginning of an attempt to take the maid forcefully.

That's not why I fell in love with the maid at first sight either, simply trying to be a comforter myself.

It became all that commotion on top of it, and it scratched so much shame that there was no more.

If you get poked around it, there's nothing the royalist nobility can do about it.

Ray told me with that thought, but Elaine shakes her neck to the side.

'Kings, you understand the word, don't you? The other side can also use the means of eventually putting out His Majesty the King.... it's not that easy to do because if you just imitate it like that, everyone will love you.'

"But you think this time it fits in that it's not that simple?... I guess."

With his doubts in his mouth, Ray quickly convinces himself.

'It will.... Anyway, we're going to be busy with each other a lot since spring'

"Oh. Vihera said she was coming to Gilm too... and it's definitely going to be a big fuss"

Vihera is very flashy in its appearance when she says that just being a former Empress of the Empire is topical enough to make a scene.

He wears thin clothes that would not attract people's - precisely men's - eyes and confuse them with dancers and whores in their body shape.

I could imagine that Ray had different sights of adventurers who knew nothing and could not discern the strength, but who would be rewarded for challenging Vihela.

(compared to the marina in terms of colour, vihella hasn't lost either, but the other one feels like a moist adult colour.... Well, it's my feeling that I'm not familiar with that, so if you're a master of love or something, maybe it's different.)

Marina was a moist hue, Vihera was a ray who thought it would be an aggressive hue, but I notice that on the other side of the pair of orbs, Elaine is pointing a set gaze at herself.

"What's up?

'... nothing. I just remembered something a little nasty. Rather than that, Ray's gonna do a mock fight as an instructor, right? Don't overdo it. If Ray really fights, he'll break the students' confidence. '

Unlike earlier, Elaine has now changed the subject.

While understanding that, I feel a tragic future awaits me if I speak poorly in this situation, and Ray rides the subject.

"I'm not going to do that either. However, the problem is, you're basically older than me going to cadet school. People who underestimate people at their age because they're everywhere."

'Heh heh, right. Ray, in particular, is also small in body. If you don't unload the hood, that's not weird for a student to go wrong. And if you take the hood...'

"He said he'd be insulted."

Ray understood best that his face was never strong.

(Well, it's true that this one was better than being a scrupulous face. Besides, if you get a strong face at this height, that's unbalanced.... I guess Zepile also made a face or something this tall. If you're saying it's a masterpiece, I wish you'd at least been in your twenties. That way, you wouldn't have been inferior alongside Elaine)

I didn't know what I thought made me look like this, but Ray gets dissatisfied because it's still the crystal of Zeppyre's technology.

"Most of all, if Ray showed strength, no one would turn against him any time soon. It's good to take Seto with you. Even those active on the front lines would be frightened if they saw Seto, so it goes without saying the cadets in the cadet school, right?

"Right. For someone who knows nothing, Seto is nothing but a symbol of fear.... nature is so nostalgic"

"Heh heh, it's a griffon, so I can't help it. What's the matter? People are influenced by preconceptions. I don't know how familiar Seto is without actually touching him.... that Seto doesn't condone his enemies is similar to his husband's."

"That's an undeniable fact. That's not how Seto wants to do it, it's almost instinctive."

As the night grew... Ray and Elaine used a pair of orbs for an hour or so to have a conversation and enjoy the meeting between the bundles.
