As Melvin and Ahahauf were exploring their stomachs, the wagon's shaking weakened.

Soon we will arrive at His Majesty's castle.

"Thank you for talking to me, Leticia. I will be able to guide you to His Majesty without any worries."

"Don't be sad...."

In other words, suppose I had a negative reaction to Gu's secret.

Did Lord Melvin try to drive me away without bringing me to His Majesty's attention?

"Oh, that's not what this is all about."

Reading my thoughts, Melvin is narrowing his empty eyes.

"Your Majesty will not forgive me for expelling Leticia from my existence. If you do that, Your Majesty will bite me. Wolf fangs. I'm not scared."

Melvin is trembling deliberately.

It is because I am familiar with His Majesty, even though I am afraid in my mouth.

"Lord Melvin is very dear to you."

That's why I asked you here what you think of Gu.

Perhaps I was worried that I might not break your heart.

"Your Majesty seems to have a good heart and envy."

"Fufu, I can't beat your servant's loyalty to Lady Leticia."

In the light words of Melvin,

Thank you very much.

Lucien didn't deny it and thanked her beautifully.

◇ ◇ ◇

Get off the carriage and fix the hem of the dress.

With a noisy heart, I entered His Majesty's waiting room.

"... Leticia, thank you for coming."

Your low voice sounds pleasant to your ears.

Is it your fault that there was a little time before we could talk?

His Majesty had no emotions, and he turned to us in a splendid way.

"I just came to invite you. Thank you for your time."

I see.

His Majesty did not reply.

Normally, when I called, I would wave my silver tail and answer...

No, no, no. It's mixed. It's mixed.

His Majesty is Hagu-sama, but it's not Hagu-sama now, so this is the normal reaction.

There must be no reason for me to be disappointed.

So I told myself that I arrived at His Majesty's face-to-face table.

"... there must be something I want to talk to you about."

I silently swallowed my saliva to His Majesty, who had just cut off his mouth.

"Yes, to the best of your knowledge, I'd like you to tell me about Gu."

"Okay.... yeah, let's start with my royal background. You know the legend of our founding, don't you?

"It's a legend that the first king of the Wolfwald Kingdom was a wolf with silver fur. I thought it was just a legend... but was it actually history?

"Exactly. It doesn't remain a legend, but it seems to contain some truth."

"If the legend is true, I think it's amazing."

Unexpectedly, I'm excited about the aroma of romance.

I was very curious about what happened when the wolf became a man and made a country.

"It was hundreds of years ago. Limited information has been passed on to my royal family to date. Still, it is certain that the first king was transformed into a wolf, that he had the extraordinary power to manipulate ice and snow, and that from time to time, the same people as the first king were born to the generations of royalty."

"There have been many like you in the past."

"In the meantime, that's what you call ancestral returns."

The return of the ancestors.

I repeated it gently in my heart.
