- Crist side -

Wearing tough clothes, he is rocked by a carriage that is unparalleled with carriages like the ones he rode with Eric and the Liberts before, and looks out through a small window.

My father, dressed as tough as I am in front of him, tangled up in me with a face that is even hotter and bitter than that.

"Look at me because my parents are talking! Cristo!"

"I'm listening to you..."

Why do I have to look at my father's face all the time when I've been in the same carriage for three more days?

"Dear Christ, are you all right?

"... oh, I'm fine"

Alisa sitting next to me peeking into my face worrying.

I appreciate your concern, but my face is a little close.

I'm embarrassed to see Alisa's face at this distance, too, so I deflect my face.

"Sire, Master Crist seems a little drunk in the carriage. So please allow me to look out the window."

"Huh, was it? Then say something quick."

Alisa gave me that excuse, so I don't have to face my father.

But I'm not drunk... just a little.

Today is the third day of carriage travel, but until the second day I never got drunk at all.

But now I'm wearing princely clothing, which is a tough one.

Dad seems perfectly fine because he's used to it, annoying.

"I think we'll be there in a dozen minutes, so don't throw up."

"Don't throw up."

That's just not it.

Or there's no way I'm gonna throw up, in front of Alisa.

... I may be losing a bolt when I'm training with Libert and showing something cooler, but that's it.

The carriage that my father and I are riding now is headed for the Kingdom of Harzion.

There are dozens of Knights soldiers around our carriage.

For once, my father and I are royal, so as an escort.

There are four people in this carriage.

Me and my dad, Alisa, and I've been quiet about it, but it's Anne, the head of the Magic Knights.

"Anne, tell us an interesting story"

"Don't pretend to be impotent. I appeal to the Queen with power."

"Sorry, you can keep your mouth shut."

My father has no head on his mother, he's the typical one laid on his ass.

I'm usually a sweet mother, but I'm really scared when I'm angry.

I was pissed off before... when Eric and I went out for a drink.

"Ha ha..."

"What's up, Crist? Suddenly you laugh."

"No, it's nothing"

I remember that time, and I just laughed.

That night was fun.

I went out for a drink with my first friend, and he treated me as just a crist, not a prince's me.

If I had been a little more drunk on booze, I might have been having fun, crying too happy.

Good enough to keep it that way.

But because I was drunk, I felt it was a failure to tell him about someone I liked.

No, it's been noticed before I spoke, or Eric seems to have a good idea.

I was distracted to hear who he liked then, but you figured it out before.

But why does he like that guy?

Eric and that person were supposed to meet for the first time before, but it was an atmosphere I knew unilaterally, and it seemed like I was in love with bees.

"Your Majesty, we seem to be here."

With that in mind, you've apparently reached your destination.

"Hmm, well. But you're not inside yet."

"Yes, it looks like they're opening the gate now"

Anne speaks as a final confirmation while you have the gate open.

"Your Majesty, Prince, never leave me. Because of what His Majesty did, it is clear to our neighbours that you two will come to this country."

"That would be a good operation, wouldn't it?

This idiot father announced that he was going to thank the Harzion kingdom, even though the country had only been attacked.

We all stopped, but we did it under the authority of the king.

"If you don't seem to be reflecting, I'll tell the queen again."

"Sorry, I'm reflecting, that's all."

I know it was the Lindo Empire that attacked the Kingdom of Begonia.

There has been information for a long time that the Kingdom of Begonia is the enemy.

The Lindo Empire, located next to the Kingdom of Harzion, will of course know that we are coming to this country.

The king of the land we were supposed to have attacked and his prince are visiting the neighbouring country without a thing.

If this is not provocation, what is it?

Whatever you think, there will come an assassin of the Lindo Empire.

They may also be wary of knowing it's a provocation, but there's no way the country that set up such a surprise attack won't get on with such a provocation.

I mean, me and my dad, we're...

I didn't think you'd be born royal.

"Looks like the gate's opened."

I think the carriage starts to move again, and it's hard to move.

I thought something was wrong, but a knock sounds on the carriage door.

When I opened it, one soldier told me what had happened.

"Excuse me. The king and princess of the kingdom of Harzion are here to greet you."

I, Anne, and Alisa are surprised by the words.

I didn't know the king was picking me up to the gate, not the royal palace.

"Ha! That's the king of Ceredonia! They blew a bubble!

My father seemed surprised, too, but he got off the carriage with pleasure.

"Heh, Your Majesty! We talked earlier, but don't go alone!

Anne panicked and followed down later.

Let's go, too.

"Yes, Crist"

Alisa called me at the call because no one was gone just for a moment.

Even though it's a little dodgy, me and Alisa go outside without putting that on our faces.

"Long time no see, King Ceredonia! How have you been!?

"Yeah, thanks to you. King Leonardo doesn't seem to change."

"Ha, right, about a few more wrinkles. And you'll be fine in Leo."

My father greets the king as he shakes hands with each other.

You seem to be close. Above all.

"Prince Christopher, long time no see"

He calls from the side and turns to you.

There was the princess of this country, and Eric's favorite, Princess Irene Harzion.
