Muyoku no Seijo wa Okane ni Tokimeku

21. Leo, Be Worried (After)

He is a prince who gathers his magic powers in a vigorous manner, but opens his eyes greatly by acknowledging his identity.

He unnerved, and instead, with a bewildered look on his face, rushed over to the boy sitting there trying to close to the door.

"Kai!?

There he was, Ky, a servant with the rumored girl Leonora.

"What the hell is going on, man? You're supposed to be in Elland with Leonora, right?

"And the disrespect of the sudden visit, forgive me, Your Highness..."

"I don't care about that. What the hell is going on?"

He frowned at Kai, who looked like he was breathing constantly, and took him indoors, trying to hold him up half way.

Oscar, who is already familiar with him, and the nostalgic Rolf, also said with interest, "What's up?" He peered into his face and served the tea, which was getting cold, instead of water.

Kai said, "I'm sorry, we're impending...!" When he left the cup, he collapsed on the spot and clasped to Alberto's knee.

"Your Royal Highness...! I flew away to tell His Highness about my husband's predicament...!

"What...!?

Alberto's face tenses harder.

He asked with all the momentum that shook his shoulder as he bent down beside Kai.

"What do you mean? Did something happen to Leonora...!? Snow singing, birds aren't flying!

"My husband seems to keep the snow singing bird in his room because he feels sorry for me in the sun. Besides, we heard that birds fly only when they are clearly aware of the crisis. I guess my husband doesn't take that as a crisis, even though he's in all that sight. But already, this one you're looking at is the limit......!

Shaking himself, Kai cut and told him what had happened before.

When we arrive at the cathedral designated as the residence of the witch, we are separated - even as a code - that the girl is put together a bluff that she cannot see.

In a meal that is supposed to combine hospitality, the pig's gut was served.

In the trials of pilgrimage to the Holy Land, only the girl was directed to the ghetto and walked extensively through the strong sun.

That he was vile and cursed, pushed down by a pile of garbage, yet bullied and tried to endure the name of my mother -.

"What..."

"Until then, if you call it a trial. But my husband was the only one who was treated like that, and I thought this alone deserved protest. What the hell happens in the liturgy of praise that would be taking place today...... I entrusted my protection and protest in Eland to the Holy Knight, but I wanted to play it as soon as possible, so I took over using the mobile team and gave it a treat."

Apparently, Kai drove a fast horse until he crossed the Errand border, then reached Richiert using a series of unfamiliar formations, albeit without magic.

I was exhausted.

"To His Excellency the Marquis, I have already told him the status quo, he tried to issue a grand decree that would move all the Knights in anger too much… that was the enemy, overlooked by His Majesty the Emperor, who is currently unable to move"

"... I see"

Alberto nodded with a bitter face.

More than I am sending as a national envoy, the protests about the girl had to be directed against the Emperor of the Empire, not the Marquis, a relative.

It must be said that it is indeed transcendental to try to fly it and move the forces, which are the property of the country.

While understanding the logic, the exasperation of the Marquis, who would be biting his teeth, was also understood to be taken in his hands, and Alberto distorted its brilliant face.

Identity and power, sometimes, block where they go.

"Waiting for a protest from the Empire, or doing it for Leonora, who is not an official fiancée, takes a lot of time to rebel... So you came to me."

"... in fear"

The Weitz Empire is a great power. If the emperor at the top of the country were to officially protest, the corresponding adjustments and steps would occur.

Waiting for it doesn't make it.

Kai seeks to restrain the girl from further malice during her stay at this contract festival.

"Right."

When Alberto answers briefly, he urges Kai to sit on the couch and sit back again himself.

That's how I did my hand on my neat jaw and quickly put my thoughts around it.

The fact that a girl with a spirited beauty attracted the greed of a lower bitch or a despicable man and was attacked on the road was where both Alberto and the Marquis were most concerned and generously countered.

However, if he entered the men's forbidden cathedral, he was treading that the inconvenience of self-reliance would be much lessened and that the danger of his hands would be much reduced.

Yet I had no idea that the host country itself was going to harass the Imperial Princess.

"The Holy Knight said that Eland had some intent and was provoking Weitz. That is why we must not surrender soldiers. I think so too. But... it's too late in case something happens to my husband...! Even if you don't give up your soldiers, you protest and you hold back, and I wonder if you can't manage to protect your husband during Eland's stay, which leaves you with one more day...!

Kai tied his words when he asked him if he could hit his hand.

On behalf of the reticent prince, the one who opened his mouth was Oscar, who had listened to him in silence until then.

"Kai. I understand the situation... but when you're putting a terribly difficult demand on this guy, you know what I mean? I'm not in a position to raise an official protest, I don't have the grandeur to move my forces. Nonetheless, you want me to tow you so you can protect Leonora, who's in Eland?

"It is, but... Your Highness would surely do something about it..."

Sharply penetrated, Kai clogged the words.

Prioritize loyalty to my husband. Not really, I tend to run wild anyway, but still, I understood that this was a messed up favor.

Alberto is only the Crown Prince, not the Emperor. And the Crown Prince's authority is surprisingly small in this country.

Well, the girl is at the moment, not even his formal fiancée.

Finally, if a prince rushes to Eland cheaply, driven by love, to wield his magic, then that is all Weitz is affixed with a rettel that he hated the Spirit.

But still, he entrusted the girl with a snow songbird and told me he would rush if anything happened.

Kai had to bet on it.

"What am I going to say about letting this guy exceed his authority as a prince, but the question of transcendence in aristocratic society and diplomacy is troublesome. It's not you who pays the price, it's this guy. You know that?

Oscar was reflecting on the fact that he had placed a considerable burden on Alberto in relation to the other day.

Previously I only thought of him as an unfriendly royal bastard, but now I know he is the one who runs for his friends, suffering from the smugness of the aristocratic society.

Of course I wanted to help the girl I thought was my sister, but at the same time, I couldn't overlook Alberto, who was beginning to think of both his disciples and close friends.

"That's right... but I can't believe I abandoned Master Leonora...!

"- Kai."

When Kai finally shuddered himself in a vegan tone with tears in his eyes, the prince quietly cut him out.

"Okay. Let's go to Eland."

"The prince?"

It was Oscar who surprised me.

He stared seriously at his younger friends as he consolidated his stern face into a stunned look.

"Hey, you know what I mean? If a magical imperial prince gets into Eland during a contract festival, that's an insult to Eland. I hate to say this, but Leonora... even though she wasn't physically harmed, it's perceived as overdefense"

"Really?

Alberto was calm, even though he seemed to point it out hard to say.

"In light of her predicament, it would be too much damage. It's all a trick to stimulate Leonora's memories of her abominable past."

"Yes... but I guess he's laying down a warrant not to pass on his past to another country? That reasoning doesn't make sense to Eland. Following the formation, even diplomacy raised the issue of transcendence, even if you..."

"Senior Oscar"

Towards the overlapping Oscar, Alberto happily let one frown rise.

"You seem to get a lot sweeter for a person you once put in your nostalgia. I'm glad to hear it, but don't worry."

So I flinch the hand I was doing to my jaw earlier.

When he grinned, he told him in the usual singing tone.

"From the beginning, if there was anything like a snow songbird flying in, I'd abandon my prince's identity, but I was going to rush to Leonora. - Well, this time, it bothered me a little because that criterion of judgment didn't fly in."

"What?

When he abandoned his identity, Oscar was stunned by Alberto, who had already said so.

Alberto didn't break that beautiful grin.

"I am, seniors. At the end of the Spirit Festival Day, I stopped being held captive by 'the perfect prince' or something anymore. While he is a prince, he aspires to be the best ruler. But you don't have to follow me as a prince. … must not be misprioritized"

The smooth voice had, however, an awesome taste that only those who had decided to be ready would have.

When Alberto took out the cloth bag he had just received from Oscar, he took the silver coin that had been delivered inside and smeared it in his palm.

"Of course, as a foolish prince, I don't exactly imitate you as you ride into Eland wielding your magic. At best, my father will notice, and he will fall to eat his foothold, just like the Marquis."

"... So, what do you want to do?

When Rolf, who was listening, tilted his fox face, both bewildered and obvious, Alberto let him smile calmly towards him.

"- Senior Kvanz. You had a great time with the three of us today (...)"

"... Yes?

"Without (...) being disturbed by anyone (...), we were greatly exhilarated. So much so that I inadvertently, with patience (...) wanted to go to Eland when I heard about the contract festival from you in the information circular."

――……

Kai did not come to this occasion. Around Alberto said that he was going to Eland of his own free will, rather than rushing because he heard about the girl's predicament.

"It would be a national affront if a magical Imperial Prince got on board with the Covenant Festival Elando, but shake off the magic - what would be the problem with ordinary people with a little bit of good physical skills touring the festival bustling with Elando. This average person doesn't have power, but he can be a shield to one girl, and the people of Elando are so attentive that they might be able to do some convenience."

It means hanging restraint in an informal way.

It is true, indeed, that Alberto is better at martial arts than his escorts there, where he has the brains to turn well, as well as the language skills, where he has taken up his identity as a prince.

By and large, if you can poke at this much appearance and power, anyone will realize that he is, "Weitz's nasty figure".

All you have to do is enter Eland in a grey capacity and, depending on the situation, watch the girl as an ordinary person, smell her identity and unofficially exercise restraint.

"I do... I think it's a better idea than cutting in front, but how are you going to rush it physically? Even if we could travel to the border in an instant, we wouldn't be able to use magic within the country today. If you want to hide the identity of the prince, you can also use the mobility provided exclusively for the royal family."

Eland also has carriages, horses, and dedicated roads available all day long, for example when the royal family visits, but if you pass the convenience of a student, you can't use them either.

Then Alberto let Oscar tilt his neck, pointing out that he would not even make it to the final day of the contract festival, which was approaching in another half day.

"Senior, what would you say if you were also the son of the Bernstein Chamber of Commerce"

"What?

"I use it when I use private transportation."

So when he played the silver coin he had on his palm, he took it and made Oscar offer it to him.

"If it's the Bernstein Chamber of Commerce under heaven, you'll have a transportation network that can travel faster than what's reserved for the royal family, right? You should be able to have enough replacement horses to run and crush every few miles, as well as local guides who know all the shortcuts. - Let me buy that."

"Ha..."

Unusual, Oscar looked taken lightly.

He was stunned for a while, but when he eventually blew it, he laughed like he couldn't get over it.

"- It's a masterpiece. The royal family relies on a clumsy merchant's legend? It's not magic, it's not power, it's the power of money to get through things?

A royal family is the descendant of a dragon.

The magic is immense, and if they wave one finger, the neck of the brotherhood party has enough power to fly together. It's like a creature of another dimension.

Nevertheless, I didn't expect such a prince to imitate something that would make him say something to gold.

"Oh, that's funny. Really delightful. There must have been no royalty like this before."

When Oscar with his belly told him to tease him, Alberto shrugged his shoulder.

"Didn't you know? I am not the Holy Grail or the sword, and for the first time in my history, I was given a dragon symbol for gold coins - I am the king of gold coins."

There is no longer a color of grit or depression in the voice that tells you.

Alberto lifted the edge of his mouth all the way through the adventure and pride that now corresponds to the year, to the white beauty that was previously lacking in expression.
