Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit

For a few seconds, I feel like time had stopped.

I want to marry Zara!?

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

Leezelotte and I stare at each other often.

"Um, Lieselotte, what? is it?"

"Mel, you, Zara Art haven't asked you to marry me yet?

"Oh, why would Mr. Zara apply to marry me?

……

Liezelotte looks at me with a wrinkle between her eyebrows and a gaze.

"Um, Lieselotte, my face, I'm scared"

"You'll be scared, too. Mel, you know, let me tell you something, because you don't seem to have noticed... that Zara Art decided to transfer to Prince Wang's SS by adopting a nobleman to marry you?

"Yes!? No way!!"

"You think I'm lying?

"No, I don't think so"

Oh... no... I can't believe Mr. Zara took action to marry me.

It's an incredible thing to do, but there's no way Leezelotte would tell a joke or lie.

That means, I mean, I guess that's what it is.

"Oh, yeah!"

Leezelotte was, to my bluntness, exhaling a grand sigh.

Until now, I hadn't noticed at all.

"Hey, Mel. Didn't Zara Art say something special?

"Special words?

Often, I try to revive my memory.

"Uh-huh..............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Mr. Zara told me.

If so, will you be the star of my guidance?

"There was."

"What did you say?

"He wants you to be the star of guidance."

"Mel thought it was a counselor or something?

"Yes."

"Because it's a proposal"

"So?"

I was really surprised.

I can't believe Zara decided to marry me.

"Mel adopted us, didn't she? So, I think you broke your mind so that you could match your identity."

"I'm ashamed of myself for not realizing it"

I wonder what it is. The lighting, the shame, the joy and all sorts of feelings are complicated.

Next time, I need to talk to Zara.

Until then, I decided to keep it deep in my heart.

◇ ◇ ◇

Arrive at the Marquis House in Liechtenberger. It's the same mansion.

Because Amelia and Stella and Esmeralda are coming today, or like the number of servants lined up to pick them up.

"Are you here?"

Oh, my God, I even came to the Marquis.

Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've had you meet with Esmeralda. It's like I didn't even make a proper introduction.

The Marquis, who had previously met Esmeralda, lost her mind while spraying her nosebleed.

Was Esmeralda cute enough to faint?

"Esmeralda, the gentleman over there is Marquis Liechtenberger, director of the Phantom Beast Protection Agency."

……

Ignore it.

It may be difficult to get past the lady and say hello to the Queen Fantasy Beast Esmeralda.

When I saw the Marquis, he had a full face. Apparently, I was just happy to see Esmeralda.

I was thrilled that I might have offended you, but I was horrified that there seemed to be no problem.

As it is, it is guided into the living room of the Marquis.

No heart or the marquis' footsteps walking forward were light.

A table full of sweets and fruits were available in the living room.

In the macarons and meringue grills often served in aristocratic houses, there were shoe creams, as well as other treats to see for the first time.

A cup of tea is also prepared. The samurai asked which one she was going to eat, so she pointed to it and had it taken to her plate.

"Hmm......"

"Good for you, Mel."

"Yes!"

Amelia and Stella also had a samurai attached to them and handed them fruit to eat.

Esmeralda doesn't seem hungry, sleeping round in a cage. For once, I asked him if he would eat fruit, but he was shaking his head as he sifted.

"Mel Lislis, how have you been lately?

"Mm?"

The Marquis asked me a question when I was chewing baked sweets on my mouth.

Pour in with tea, cough with Gohon once, then return the words.

"Uh, yes. I'm trying."

"Right. If you have any problems, you should talk to them about everything."

"Oh, yes."

The Marquis feels like the strongest advisor. As much as I fought with the king, so I guess it's nothing to be afraid of.

My name is Siel, my name is Marquis, and everyone around me is amazing.

Here, let's get to the point. About the Fantasy Beast party.

"Specifically, what do you do? May I join you if I do not know the courtesy of the nobles"

"Well, it's just a celebration to join and brag about with phantom beasts. That's it, I don't even feel it."

"Um, are eagle lions and black silver wolves coming too?

He said what to do with the pageant, so I need to get my mind ready.

"No, neither Eagle Lion nor Black Silver Wolf have any contractors in the country"

"Oh, you are"

"Both are said to be difficult phantom beasts to get through the mind with people. Eagle Lion is in the Reserve, but not under contract"

"I see."

Amelia and Stella are kind-hearted maidens. We got along quickly, so maybe I'm twisted.

Esmeralda, a super rare demonic stone beast, probably isn't talking about matchmaking.

Whether it's your turn, even if you're looking for the world.

When I thought of that, I thought I'd be nicer to you. No, though I'm being nice enough.

"This is where we talk, but as the daughter of the host of the party, I want you to give some hospitality to the participants with Lieselotte"

"Hospitality, is it"
