The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight’s favorites

A stained glass with a slightly cracked, dull white wall and unbalanced polished beauty. A few days later, Sofia slowly pulled down a large wooden door.

─ ─ Hello

Almost in the afternoon, the big church in the town had the children who did the shopping as usual and the priest who came to pick them up.

"Oneechan!

Mia rushed in and jumped on Sofia.

Hello, Mia.

Crouch down and stroke your head. Today, they were the first children to see each other except Mia. I wonder if it is a watchdog. When I smile, my head falls down.

"Hey, sis. Aren't you with your brother today?... ah, oniichan is oneechan's prince today?

Young Mia's voice resonates well with a church without noise. Gilbert, a short distance away, turned to us in surprise. Sofia smiles at Mia's eyes.

"─ ─ Yes, that's right. This is my prince."

Mia sparkled her expression. My eyes are moving between Sophia and Gilbert. Gilbert, who was listening, walked in on us.

"Oniichan is Oniichan's prince?

"I am a knight of Sofia and I want to be alone. If that's what you call a prince, yes."

Tall Gilbert bends his hips and strokes Mia's head with me. Do you know the correct meaning of the word? With a loud voice, Mia ran around.

"Dear Gilbert...."

I am embarrassed to speak frankly and my cheeks are stained.

"It's true. Don't worry about it."

"That said....!

Gilbert gently stroked Sofia's head. It also seems to fix the disturbed hair. It gradually calmed down and reminded me of the original reason why I came here today.

Move forward to the priest who was watching. Straightening her posture, Sofia thanked the lady.

"Hello, Father. I came to talk to you today. ─ ─ My name is Sofia Renish."

The name kept an eye on the priest. Put your head down like you were in a hurry.

"No way ─ ─ I didn't know Sofia, so I'm sorry."

"No, I'm sorry I kept quiet. I wanted to apologize today."

The priest bows his head to Sofia's story.

"Apologies... for us now, we're just happy to see you alive. ─ ─ So, who's there?"

Father's eyes are directed at Gilbert, who looks troubled by Mia and the other children. The sight was so interesting that Sofia was able to relieve the tension and smile.

"He is Mr Gilbert. Today, we are looking around the territory together."

"Was it? Congratulations on your engagement."

"That's not true. Ah... thank you."

It is embarrassing to be told again by others. But it was a pleasure. And the people seem to know about Sofia and Gilbert.

"But I won't be apologized to by Sophia."

"No. Um... the embroidery Bianca donated. That embroidered accessory wasn't made by Bianca. Bianca donated what I made once.... I'm sure she won't come here in the future. I'm sorry I was such a good girl to the children."

I was curious. Apart from my aunt and uncle, Bianca played a good lady for the people. Even though it was made with Sofia embroidery, it is a fact that is visible to children.

"Was that ─ ─ on the left? Sure, unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it."

Somewhere a powerless priest recruits Sofia's guilt. I hurriedly removed the pouch I made yesterday from my bag and gave it to the priest.

"─ ─ That design is already Bianca's, so I made a new one. I'm sure it'll take some time... but I'd like to work hard to make sure the kids don't miss me so I can override it. Could you spare some time until then?"

Lower your head deeply with a wish. The priest looked at Sofia and had a deep smile that wrapped everything around him.

"Of course. ─ ─ I'm looking forward to it."

When Baron Lannish's carriage runs through town, you can see rumors of who's in it. That's why I wanted to use this carriage today. But so far, so unexpected.

─ ─ Sofia, give me your hand.

Gilbert, who got off the carriage earlier, reached out to Sofia. Sofia lay her hands on the table. In a moment, the surroundings boiled.

"This is...."

Sofia herself knew how she had been rumored in the days since the incident. It's a tragic heroin that killed my parents, tortured them by my uncle and kicked them out. Gilbert, who helped Sofia, seems to be treated like a hero of the story, and you can hear it when you go out to the inn's restaurants and town.

"Sofia, are you okay?"

I just wanted to see a little souvenir for Carina. Push your hesitant foot forward and put your foot on the ground. I can't let Gilbert go.

"─ ─ Yes. Maybe."

"Then laugh at him. Just for now, just a little."

Sofia waved desperately to loosen her crampy expression. Some of them seem like reporters, but they do think of Sofia, and they're here. I wanted to behave as Baron Lannish at least as best I could now.

Gilbert pulls Sofia's hand and slowly enters the shop. It appears that Tobias, with his escort, is guiding the rest of the vigilante group.

"I haven't done anything yet...."

"That's all you have to expect. Now that the Baroness and his wife have been arrested and they don't know the future of the territory, they want a base of mind. ─ ─ Even if you inherit the territory or marry me... there won't be any rebellion."

Gilbert is already looking at the shelves lined with merchandise. Standing next to me, he glanced at Sofia. The careless care was happy, and anxiety turned to hope.
