Outaishihi ni Nante Naritakunai!!

Since she came, there have been more trips to town, and there are plenty of times to get into her room in her spare time.More importantly, because we were studying together, Fred was really jealous of Raid recently.

I mean, maybe I spend more time with her than I do... but there's something I can't deny.Fried is often in the office during the day or in the Knights of the Kintetsu headquarters for training, but neither of them is basically close to me.

It is fun to see the Friends to train, so I am interrupted by the Knights headquarters from time to time, but when I, Princess Wang, arrive, it will annoy the Knights face, so I put up with it with minimal patience.

That's why we spend more time with nature and Raid.

Prince Hendrick smiled happily as he talked about Raid.

"You and Philia are really close.I'm more and more relieved to hear it. "

"Um... so where's Raid?"

I can't see Raid that I just talked to.Asked strangely, Prince Hendrick exhaled in trouble.

"Apparently they found someone they knew, and they didn't want us to stop them.Well, I don't mind being in the venue, but it's completely different from the usual office.Honestly, I'm surprised. "

"Ah...."

I listened to Prince Hendrick and came with a pin.

Maybe Raid found Abel.

Fried tells me that Abel is attending tonight's party.Fried said he wanted to sneak in as an informant, so he gave him permission.You must have found him.

--I see.

Prince Hendrick leans his neck when he looks at me with a convincing face.

"Maybe Princess Lydiana knows something?"

"Well...."

"Hmm. Well, there's no danger to the people you know, so I guess I'll just leave them alone.Ah, more importantly, Princess Lydiana. I need to ask you a favor. "

"Please?"

I wonder.

While tilting his neck, Prince Hendrik said looking back at Ilya, who was hiding behind him.

"It's about Ilya.As you can see, it's completely atrophied.There's something strange about Ilya, isn't there? "

That's right.

I am well aware of Ilya's shyness.I couldn't talk to my sister-in-law, Raid, very well.

She came to a night club in another country.Moreover, all the attendees were royalties and representatives of various foreign countries who did not know each other.I managed to stay here because I was obliged to attend as a princess, but I think it's true that I want to escape now.

Ilya, are you okay?

I get worried and call her.Ilya nodded small, hiding behind Prince Hendrick.

"Hee... I'm fine."

- Ah, it's not okay at all.

I felt everything when my voice trembled.Prince Hendrick says he's in trouble.

"That's what I'm talking about. So, please, let me evacuate Ilya a little bit.I still have people to say hello to, and I can't leave this place.You're the only one here who can count on Ilya.Fried, you too.Can you lend your queen to Ilya for a while?I'm glad you're doing your best, but Ilya is at her limit.I just want to get you away from the venue. "

Prince Hendrick's face is seriously worried about Ilya.I'd like to work with her and my friend, myself.

Ilya's complexion is bad, and she may collapse in a nervous venue.

I looked up at Fried next door and told him.

"Fried, can I go for a walk in the courtyard with Ilya?"

I have been told that the courtyard is open for evening party participants.Fried raised his eyebrows slightly, but Ilya must have decided that Prince Hendrick's words were not a lie.I had no choice but to give permission.

"King Maximilian is in the venue and will be fine for a while.... okay, go.... just in case, I'll call Cain. "

I nodded firmly to Fred, who told me with his face.

I don't think it's really worrying.That just happened.Without Cain, Fried couldn't even give permission.

"Yeah."

"I wish I could have gone with you.The Ilya Queen won't forgive me if I'm with her, and I'll be around to say hello.I'll pick Hendrick up later. "

"Okay."

When he nodded again, Prince Hendrick said to Fried with a hospitable face.

"I'm sorry, Fried. Thank you."

"I can't help it. Indeed, Princess Ilya doesn't look so good.It would be nice to hit the wind a little at night. "

"Ilya, go with Princess Lydiana.I'll pick you up as soon as I'm done. "

"... yes, Your Highness"

Kokuri and Ilya shake their necks vertically.And he took the hand of Ilya, which came forth from behind Prince Hendrick.

"Liddy"

"I haven't seen you in a while, Ilya. I've given you both permission, so why don't we leave the venue for now?"

"... yeah"

With their hands tied, they headed to the courtyard.On the way, I felt some gaze, but I thought I might be worried that Wilhelm and Princess Irving would be with me, so I decided to leave them alone.

If there is anything, I and Ilya's husband won't let it go.

Go out to the courtyard.

The lights were well lit everywhere, so it was pretty bright even at night.

Guards are everywhere.They let us through silently without saying anything.Perhaps Glenn, their boss, contacted us.Glenn, the Knights of the Kintetsu, is one of Friends' childhood acquaintances, and I know he has a memorandum of understanding agreement.

It was easy to imagine that Fried would have contacted Glenn.Of course, I'm sure Cain will be nearby.Not because of Fried or because he contacted me, but basically because he won't leave me in silence.Because he is my ninja.

"Ilya, are you okay?"

A cylindrical shia in the back of the courtyard.I made sure nobody was there, so I let Ilya sit there for the time being.I stayed standing during the night club.A woman's heel makes her feet unexpectedly tired.I thought I'd like to sit if I could.

"... thank you."

Sitting next to her, listening to her careless voice.

A stone bench of the same material as Shia cooled down a little, but soon it got warmer and stopped bothering me.

There were lots of beautiful flower beds around Shia, but it's not much fun at night.Instead, the quiet atmosphere that characterized the evening was pleasant.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience, Liddy.

Ilya exhales small and lowers her head.I shook my head sideways.

"Ilya has nothing to apologize for.I mean, you did your best. Ilya, come to another country to find out who you are, and even attend a night party.I think she played a proper role as a queen. "

……

Ilya nodded silently. Unhidden fatigue seeped on his side.He must have gotten tired of coming to a place where there were no people.I regretted that I should have brought you something to drink.

"Nobody's coming here, so why don't we take a break?"

"Yeah."

"It's just a short time before Friends pick us up.I thought I was a little nervous and tired, so I was relieved to get out because of Ilya. Thank you. "

Interaction with King Maximilian and conversation with Prince Harold to greet delegates from around the world.

I'm nervous about talking to royal classes in other countries that aren't very close.

I don't want to bother Fried by saying bad things.With that feeling, I am participating tonight.I failed a little against King Maximilian.

I have the feeling that I want to do it properly.

I don't want to be Fried's luggage. I want to help.
