Master of the brave.

Secret Heart

Fat drips from the intestinal stuffing of the pigs broiled in the incineration, and smoke accompanies the fragrant aroma with the sound of ju. When it was cooked thoroughly, the hot gravy bounced and the sweetness and flavor of the fat spread all over my mouth.

Still the first day of the journey.

Tomorrow we will be eating portable food that has been dried and improved the sun, such as dried meat and dried bread, but now we can still eat fresh food. Now it must be the best combination if it's cold barley or wine, but unfortunately only alcohol has a cheaper wine that's slightly warmer.

So Without daring to drink wine, Wynn moistened his throat with cold water drawn up in Sawa.

If you finish your ears, you'll make the sound of a patchy explosion and mix it with the sound of a burning fire, and you'll hear the sound of flowing water called Sarasara from Sawa. And when I looked up into the sky, I saw a starry sky full of stars just as the trees in the woods were broken apart.

The best place for a delicious meal.

(Yet I wonder what this atmosphere is...)

Winn glanced at the company as he roamed the bread.

The two of us, Wedge and Leno, are sitting back and eating on a rock a little further away from their buddies.

Rock said, "Oh, this looks good cooked and delicious!" "Ugh, the water's cold. Ugh!" and one person is busy, "Cornelia next to it replies," Right...... "" Thank you, "but somewhere above the sky and such attitudes.

From time to time, I take a good look at the Wins, but they seemed to work and stay calm.

Only one person, Kelvin, was poking the burning fire with a face that seemed fun.

When Winn, who learned how uncomfortable she was, turned her attention to Leticia, who sat next to her, she also looked baffled back.

(I don't know what's going on, guys. It doesn't seem like we had a fight...)

"Oh, yeah, brother. I just made it, maybe it's time for a good one."

"Oh, right. Let me take a look."

"Fine, I'll go. If I could do it right, I could do the magic the way I did."

"Right. Then do me a favour."

"Yeah."

Leticia stood up and went into the woods again.

"Is something wrong?

That's what Rock asks Winn, who was watching the two of them interact.

"Yeah, I was just picking up firewood, and I found a pond or a swamp."

"Heh... were they even fish or shrimp? You know, you've even set a trap?

"That's not what I'm saying... sort of"

"What is it?

"I'm not sure I can do it right. Now that Letty's gone to see it, I'll let you know if I'm successful."

"Oh, my God, that's a lot."

What Wynn and Leticia made is something that will surely please everyone if it is successful. So I want to teach everyone after I've succeeded properly because it's going to discourage me when I fail.

Rock persistently asks, but Winn laughs and flushes appropriately.

"Me, you're going to hit the wind a little over there."

That's when Cornelia got up on her knees. And when I walk away from the bonfire, I walk to Sawatari.

The hindsight looked somewhere lonely, and Wynn asked Rock to drop Cornelia off with an indescribable look on her face.

"Mr. Cornelia, did something happen while Letty and I were gone? It feels like the sky up there from now on?

"No... well, there was..."

When Rock makes his mouth look moggy as he can't tell, he looks at Winn's face like he's in trouble.

(Hmmm... I guess it's caused by what the deputy chief said. His Highness Alfred hopes that Master Cornelia and Wynn will be united for the future of the Empire. And I'm pretty sure Master Cornelia has a thing for Winn, too. But you can't tell me from my mouth that Winn is shying away because he has Lady Leticia and he's hiding that feeling...)

Locke dropped his shoulder and sighed deeply.

"Why are you puking about sighing? I mean, I guess when Rock takes that attitude, it's mostly when I have some cause, lately. Could something have happened again because of me?

"Well..."

Locke narrowed his eyes and stared at Winn's face.

(As a result of my burning of the wins in Peshrika, the atmosphere of the wins and the Leticians became better. I pushed that Wynn's back, and now you want me to think about Master Cornelia? Besides, you're telling Winn to do two strands of this)

That made Rock laugh dry.

(Weird, Jedi Weird This situation. One is a brave and princess of the Duke's family, the other a princess of the royal family. Besides, do you recommend two strands by mentioning the state...)

"Oh, my God, Rock, you're disgusting."

Ignoring a slightly pully win, Rock took a pan hung on the bonfire. In the pan, the hot water is boiled with gras. When tea was brewed into the two pottery cups of that hot water, it was offered to Wynn.

"Master Cornelia seems to be caught in the wind at Sawa's. You, take this with you. Just ask me what Cornelia is worried about."

Leaving behind the wind, Cornelia had come to Sawabe, where she had earlier given the horse a drink of water.

A small stream of thin water delivers a pleasant sound to the salad and ears.

This Sawabe just had broken branches of trees and the sky was peeking overhead. But it's the rain that's cloudy of what hasn't fallen, I don't see the stars. But Cornelia just kept looking up at the dark night sky.

About my brother, Alfred, and the Eltz people, about the Royal Lyon Army that came to reinforce me, about the Imperial Capital I'm going to head to, about Prince Neumann who will face me there. There are so many things to think about as a princess.

But the more I try to think about it, the more things float around Cornelia's brain about Winn and Leticia at Count Shrihaden's mansion in Peshlica.

I don't know what Leticia and I talked about when she was surrounded by her brother Rails and taken out by Wynn. But I'm sure there was something going on between the two of us.

Winn and Leticia, Cornelia are honestly happy to know that we cared about each other, and we want to congratulate each other. But I was also certain I was feeling lonely somewhere in my heart.

Even though I still have a lot to think about as a priority, I keep thinking about Winn.

(Even though I knew... I can't believe there's no room for me between you and Lady Leticia. But......)

Hold hands on your chest and lay your eyes down.

(Still............)

At that time, I heard footsteps from behind and Cornelia turned around in a hurry to make a clear look.

"Did I interrupt where I was alone? Mr. Cornelia."

"Ah..."

The person I was just thinking about. Cornelia was accidentally stuffed with words in Winn's appearance.

"I thought something was wrong with a warm drink or something, so I brought you some tea."

"Thank you. Winn, did you brew this for me?

"It wasn't me who brewed it, it was Rock, though."

I gave him one cup of pottery to relax the hot air, and Winn scratched his head and laughed.

"I've taught Mary how to make tea since she was a squire, but she's still no good at all."

"Hehe, you did"

Cornelia had seen Winn being handled by Cornelia's favorite samurai, starting with Mary, when he was assigned as the first of the squadrons to brew tea.

Remembering how Wynn was struggling at that time, the two laugh face-to-face.

"So, Winn, can you accompany me to tea, too?

"Of course."

Winn let the pottery raise the cup a little. And we'll both sit down on the spot and have tea.

Two for a while, shut up and have a hot cup of tea.

What you can hear in your ears is the sound of the water flow and the breathing sounds of each other.

Quiet hours passed.

Drinking tea, Cornelia sometimes stole a look at Winn's face.

Looking at Winn's face reminds me of what Kelvin told me earlier.

Meet Wynn was a knight's school.

With simulated combat training, Winn's reputation for being a civilian native and a fallen student led Cornelia to organize with the fact that she could not find training for each other from the princess's status and the rest for each other. At that time, Cornelia learned about and was interested in Win, who aimed to sharpen his sword moves and knight in order to overcome the weakness of his inability to use magic, and eventually his interest turned to love.

(But Winn, there's always Lady Leticia next to you...)

Since before I met Cornelia, there was always Leticia next to Winn. I think the meeting between the two was exactly what led them to destiny. The bond that binds Winn to Leticia is strong enough to remember somewhere sanctity and dignity in Cornelia as well. I don't think I can crack it between us and let it in. Besides, Cornelia has a position as a princess. I couldn't bring up the thought of recruiting.

"... Mr. Cornelia? What's the matter with you?

So to Cornelia staring. When Winn asked that, when Winn forcefully took Leticia out of the circle of aristocratic youths in Peshlica, I remembered the indelible feeling in the feeling of blessing the two of them, and I learned the unbearable heartache and loneliness.

My vision was distorted and my tears were almost nil.

"It's nothing. Um... Wynn, I'm sorry. Can you just keep your eyes closed for a little while?

"? Fine."

Have Winn close his eyes to cover his moist eyes. And then I got up and went around behind Win's back -.

"Huh!? Mr. Cornelia?"

"I'm sorry, but just a little..., let me stay like this"

Turn your arm around to the neck of the wandering Wynn.

Empire royal women are allowed to touch their bodies only to those who spend their lives together. Cornelia's act of holding Winn's head tight to her chest has equal meaning to the proposal.

(Winn, that your place is next to Lady Leticia. I know painfully that your feelings are right for Master Leticia. I'm sure you'll look in trouble. But......)

With his arms turned, Cornelia whispers in Winn's ear.

"Mr. Cornelia......"

"Wynn, I know you care so much about Lady Leticia. So you don't have to answer. What I'm going to say is selfishness that I don't want to remain sorry for the rest of my life. So I'm not asking you for answers. Still...... can you listen to me?

Cornelia gently removed the arm she turned around her neck, turning to the front and pulling Winn's hand to her chest, staring Winn in the eye and saying:

"I like you."
