"Rain...... Shroud? Shroud, did you say that?
"Yes, it is...?
Apparently the king is surprised, and the emotions of agitation were on his face.
Why do you look like that?
"Your father?
"Um... no, it's nothing"
In the wake of your strange gaze, Sarya, the king regained his quiet expression.
"Well, tonight, for my daughter's benefactor, I'm going to have the cooks hang in there. Sarya, take the Shrouds to the guest room. You have a lot to talk about, too, don't you?
"Yes. Thank you, Father. Come on, Mr. Rain, come here."
"Oh, oh..."
Though I was concerned the king would stare at me...
Now, whatever inquiry you make, it doesn't seem like you can answer me.
I thought I couldn't help talking now, so I thanked him and took a look at him.
――――――――――
Night.
A feast was held for us.
The king said it was a whisper...
On the table were sloppy lines of lavish dishes that I had never seen before.
Seasonal fruits in wines with an even more aromatic aroma.
In addition, desserts such as cakes and baked confectionery were also available, which was due to the fact that they were stuck.
Now that it's a whisper, what kind of feast is it?
"Hagu, gu, gu! Ahhh! Nk...... Nk...... pk, pk!!!
"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Pfft!!!
Canade and Luna were eating food with momentum.
Even so, I was eating as much as I could.
He was completely distracted by the royal dishes, and even had a heart mark in his eyes.
"Nah. ♪ They're all delicious and happy ♪
"We have to eat a lot! And then we have to ask if we can take it home!
"Luna, it's shallow."
Though Sola can fool me, Luna's hand won't stop.
Rather, it accelerates.
"There may be no more opportunities to eat this kind of food. Then you'll have to eat as long as you can."
"Oh man..."
Though he showed how frightened he was, Sola also served dishes full of dishes.
The pace of eating is slow, but its appetite is endless.
Seeing those eaters, Tania eats meat with a look on her face that makes her shudder.
"I wish I could eat some more calm...... momomogu. Oh, Nina. It has sauce on it."
"Huh? Hmm... Taken?
"Not yet. We'll take it, so stay still."
Tina's little body floats flutteringly and wipes away the sauce on Nina's mouth.
It's night now, and this place is indoors, so Tina can act as a spiritual body...
The pattern of ghosts wandering the royal castle is not very good, so I decided to have the doll's body used.
"Here, take it."
"Mmm... thanks"
"Nina's cute, so you can't put sauce on her or imitate her like a canade"
"Wow... I can't believe I'm cute... can I?
"'Cause this kid's not going anywhere weird anymore."
"Nina is cute. Stick with it. Why do you want to be cute?"
"Aww."
Not used to being complimented, Nina was blushing and illuminating.
Such tricks are also cute, so even more praised...
I'm not sure. The circulation was complete.
……
Watching how everyone was doing, I was slowly eating.
From the moment I became acquainted with the princess, and I was to meet the king face to face.
Life, I don't know what's going to happen.
"Mr. Rain."
When I was called out and looked back, I saw Sarya.
Wearing a gorgeous dress, it looks like it's sparkling.
Is it one thing to wear that changes your impression so much?
"Are you enjoying it?
"Yeah, too much. Everyone seems to be taking a good breath...... thank you"
"No, I'd be happy if I could repay you at all."
As she recalls what happened during her journey, Sarya puts her hands on her chest and says:
"Thanks to Mr. Rain, we are safe and able to serve our purpose. Again, let me thank you."
"That purpose is to get those knights, right?
"Yes, that's right"
……
"What's wrong?
"No... I can't believe we even have to do that, the royal thing is hard," he said.
"Pfft, I don't always do it. However, if left unattended, it could have been a serious problem, so I decided to pick up the danger beforehand. Because that's all I can do with low inheritance."
"After all, where do you think?
"Right...... if you say you don't, you're lying. If this self helps for the country...... but I'm not a saint prince, so you have some thoughts. So when Mr. Rayne met the king face-to-face, oh, I'm glad you said it. Half of them were hissing."
"Uh... excuse me. It's the type that moves with emotion."
"Heh, you're funny, Mr. Rain."
Sarya laughs when she crinkles.
There was a familiar sentiment for me on that face.
Apparently, they liked it.
Maybe it's unusual because it's the type that's not around.
"Hmm. You seem to be getting along with my daughter"
Now the king appeared.
If I rush to bow my head, it will be stopped by hand.
"Fine. This evening's feast is for those of you. And yet it wouldn't make sense to let you care."
"My father says this too, so don't worry about Mr. Rayne either. Only now, I wonder if I can forget that my father is king"
"That's quite a difficult story...... ok"
If that's what they want, it won't be more than necessary.
... You're gonna be okay, right?
"Did Salya like Shroud?
"Yes, I would like you to be my friend"
"Oh, that's horrible..."
"Hmm. That Sarya's not enough?
"What!? That's not what I meant..."
"Ha, it's a joke. Don't bluish your face."
Does this guy know where he stands...?
I can't take it as a joke.
Anyway, it's bad for the heart.
If I can, I'd like to withdraw from here...
The king was staring at me.
Looks like we need to talk about something.
"Sarya. I'm sorry, could you leave Shroud and me alone?
"Are you going to keep Mr. Rain to yourself?
"I'm sorry, I told you. Return it properly later. At that time, talk as much as you like."
"If that's the case"
Without me, the conversation is on its own.
Well, it's fun talking to Sarya, so I'm not going to disagree.
"Well... why don't we hit the wind a little at night?
The king invited me out to the terrace.
A pleasant night breeze blows, stroking my hair.
"Now you won't be asked to speak to anyone else"
"Are you talking about secrecy?
"Yes."
What the hell are we talking about?
Sometimes the other person is the king, and he accidentally sets himself up.
"Well... let me ask you a few questions first. Shroud. Are you from the South?
"Huh? Yes, I do,"
"Commonly known as Born inside a Beast Tamer?
"How could you do that...?
Surprised, the king looked convinced.
"Again, or... you mean there's no falsehood in that name"
"What do you mean?
"In conclusion, there is God's blood in that. Which means... you deserve to name a brave man."
