Mochiron, Isharyōseikyū Itashimasu!

After the queen's tea party, I was to go to the harbor with Master Juhua and His Highness.

Because His Royal Highness said he was concerned about Master Juhua's ship.

I've never been on a ship in a neighboring country either, so I was wondering, so they brought me here.

Master Juhua looked disgusted when I said I wanted to go with him, too.

"Is Julius interested in ships?

His Royal Highness seems strange too.

"I've always wondered about the amount of ships in my neighborhood."

"Loading..."

His Royal Highness has a frightened face.

Isn't that rude?

I have no complaints because you took me for now.

"Is that it, Lily?

When I got on the boat, most of my known faces were.

I prefer to sell souvenirs to sailors in other countries pretending to be downtown pedestrians, but most of my regular customers were there at that time.

Can we just get out of here?

"Lily! What beautiful clothes! You look great! You look like a nobleman!

That's what a boy who often talks to me about his neighbor in a friendly way among regular customers said as he nicked me.

"Julius."

His Royal Highness is also a frightened face.

"Eh..."

Master Juhua said with a wrinkle between his eyebrows that he was worried about what I should say.

"Are you a spy?

"Ziff, Julius is not a spy, he's a merchant."

Lord Juhua strangled His Highness in his words.

How strange you look.

"Lily?

"Oh, you know, Mr. Lish... it's been a long time... I'll be back with some stuff later!

You perceived my upset, Your Highness said holding my shoulder softly.

"Sorry, this guy's with me now. You can talk about your work later."

………

"Don't look disgusting."

They say it's like a possession.

"You're not Lily! What's wrong with coming aboard the ship?

"You know this woman to the captain?

"Don't you know the prince is not interested in women? She's a famous daughter among the sailors who says that the products that Yuri sells are of high quality and that if she chooses her daughter-in-law's souvenirs, there won't be any deviations."

I was impressed by the captain's words.

"And I can't believe Lily brought a man, and when our young ones find out, they're gonna throw themselves in the ocean."

"About what?

"Oh, come on. Is that natural? Many of our young ones buy souvenirs for Lili!

"Oh, really? Are you happy about that?

The captain laughed lavishly as I tilted my neck.

What the fuck?

"Lish, you don't have a chance."

"Shut up! Yuri, are you dating that guy?

I looked up at His Highness still holding my shoulder.

"That's not what I'm saying with this guy!

"So is there anyone else you like?

………

I laughed bitterly when I shut up for a while.

"Me, too. Recently, my engagement was broken. So can't someone like me for the time being?

I found myself breathing around other than Your Highness in my words.

If I looked up, His Highness would still look at me.

"It's true."

It's true, though.

Maybe I want to tell you not to be sad, but I don't accept complaints.

"Rudnik, is that true?

"Oh, last week? You just broke your engagement."

I could see that Master Juhua looked like an unexpected person.

Well, you'd also look like that because you think it's only painful for a woman to get her engagement broken.

"Oh well. You've had a rough time, too."

I made a smile at the words Master Juhua tried so hard to snuggle in spite of his awkwardness.

"Never mind."

His Highness said away that he would gently poke me in the head like that.

"Ziff. She's not heartbroken or anything. Never mind."

"No, Rudnik. I hear the woman's heart is as delicate as a glassmaker."

"Her heart is Orihalcon, so I'm fine"

"It's rude. Even I get scratched!

"Your heartbreak will be blocked as soon as the money is involved, won't it?

"... Indeed"

His Highness sighed loudly when I was convinced.

"You're not exactly convinced, are you?

"You just told me you'd be attending another event to fill my heart wound, didn't you?

"I didn't say."

"I said you'd wear your body to make poor me smile"

"I didn't say. I'm sorry about that event again."

To me I accidentally tongued, sighing again, Your Highness.

My tongue pounding and His Highness's sigh felt like it was becoming a one-set.

"Julius, stop pounding my tongue."

"I don't want to have an event or anything, so I'll stick with you."

"Whatever you say, I won't do it!

"Well, I hope you'll forgive me as much as I tongue."

"... at least leave me alone where no one is"

His Royal Highness muttered small.

Why is this guy so sweet?

It's good to be so angry.

I had a bitter laugh.

"I'll be careful"

His Highness also laughed bitterly at my words.

That's a face I don't believe in.

Still, I felt that my relationship with His Highness had come a little closer.
