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

◇ ◇ ◇

Gilbert took Sofia's hand by surprise.

Sofia, I don't know what you're not talking about.

Even though it's a familiar word, your heart sounds annoying.I knew it was because I had something to hide.Sofia peered into Gilbert's blue eyes to find out what Gilbert meant.

Dear Gilbert?

The eyes were sincere and guilty.I wonder if it is okay to hide the story about the guest's failure from Gilbert, the owner of the Mansion, and I get lost.Sofia decided to remain silent with Gilbert because she didn't want to convey malicious language that was originally directed at her.I didn't want to say much when I thought the other person had a strong influence on Gilbert when he was young.

Gilbert stares back at Sofia.

"But don't forget what you want to know"

That's ─ ─

Gilbert strengthened his grip so that he wouldn't let Sofia slip away.

"Even if it was a conflict that Sofia wanted to hide."

"─ ─......"

Sofia took a breath.

Gilbert releases his hand and gently strokes Sofia's head instead.The hand took a section of the back hair. My gaze falls.

"... of course, I love Sofia no different."

Then the flow and the mouth that fell on the tip of the hair shook Sofia's heart strongly.

"So don't hold me too much alone."

"Ah... thank you very much."

Faced with a sweet touch, Gilbert looked at Sofia with a face that looked like a successful prank.Smile lightly and let your hair escape.I felt loneliness in my hair as I danced through the sky.

"You're not good at hiding things."

"I don't think it's a very good thing...."

Gilbert shook his neck to the left and right.

"Not really."

Huh?

"Sometimes you keep your mouth shut for the sake of your partner."

Sofia wondered if Gilbert really knew everything.Otherwise you wouldn't be able to say such a thing.But it is also true that Sofia has no way of confirming it, and that it is not just the feeling of thinking about the other person, which is unfortunate.He leaned unconfidently.

"─ ─ Don't worry too much.I'll pick up everything you can't hold or leave behind. "

"That's not true...."

When I raised my face, there was a gentle warm indigo color.It's Sofia's favorite color.

"No problem, but I'll stay with Sofia."

Words linger in your heart.They tell me it's okay.

Sofia tried to open her mouth.At that time, I heard footsteps and voices in a hurry from behind.

Milord, may I?

Sofia slipped away from Gilbert.Now I remember that this is the hallway in front of my room.Now that we have visitors, we may be seen.Not to mention the second floor of the mansion, where the guest rooms are located.

Covering his bright red face with his hands, he heard a laugh like Carina pushing him to death.

Hans, what's wrong?

"I'm sorry about the conversation.I need something more than a castle right now. "

The royal castle was heard, and Sofia regained her calm at once.It hasn't been that long since Gilbert got home.Something happened.

Sophia, who moved between the docks with Gilbert, thanked Tobias for his service.Gilbert opened his mouth with a serious expression.

"What happened?"

Tobias sat down and started talking while he sat still.

"Lieutenant, I just got word from Uncle Tibor.A large herd of beasts emerged on the border with Parca. We are currently engaged. "

Sofia felt chilly when she heard of the beast.A Magic Beast is a magical beast.Small things are sometimes raised for fun, but they are basically dangerous creatures.According to the knowledge read in the book, the cause of the occurrence is unknown, and the damage seems to vary depending on the attributes, such as exhaling flames, ice on the surroundings, etc.They will respond in the Territory up to medium sized, but the Knights will often crush them if they are flocked or large.Uncle Tibor is a nobleman who protects the western border.Since I am a Border Guard, I have more force in my territory than any other aristocrat, but a large herd of beasts will surely be dealt with by the Magic Knight.

What's the damage?

"Several local residents were injured and the impact on farmland is unknown.The Magic Knight has been summoned. "

Gilbert glanced at Sofia and turned his gaze back to Tobias.

"... let's hear more about it in the castle"

As soon as Gilbert got dressed in knighthood, he came down to Saloon.

"Sofia, I'm coming. Please eat first."

"Welcome... be careful"

The hands that touched Sofia's cheeks were moving apart in a shameful way.Gilbert left the Marquis with Tobias, who had kept him waiting.

That night, it was bedtime, but Gilbert didn't come home.
