The Escape of Layla

"Good morning, Mr. Leila"

"Good morning, Mr. Shadelle"

"Good morning, Mr. Leila, I'll be at Charlotte's later!

"Mr. Eisler, you're waiting. We've also created a new embroidery, so be sure to take it."

In a clear, air-filled morning, I had completed a completely routine morning shopping and enjoyed conversations with the residents on the road. It's early, and it's been another month since I got here.

It was at the beginning that I couldn't do one shopping because of all the unfamiliar things, but I have become completely familiar with my life in this illusory king's capital thanks to the kindness of Mr. Lenhardt and Mr. Charlotte.

He is also in much better physical condition than he was at the Duke's house, and now has the city's magic store run by Mr. Charlotte set aside embroidered handkerchiefs and lace accessories that I made. The sale was quite good, due in part to the small number, but it was largely sold out on the day I put it down or the next day. You seem to like it. Above all.

Mr. Leanhardt seems to be working primarily on making magic equipment that will be a product of the magic store run by Mr. Charlotte. About once a week, they seem to go to the magic division to which they belong for training and meetings, but they rarely see blood in this city of peace itself, so all the magicians say it's mainstream that they have other jobs.

Yes, magic. Until a month ago, the only power I thought was Migawa is used very normally in this city.

For example, lighting seems to be manipulated by the magic of fire, and children fly in the sky when they are likely to be late for school. As an adult, he seems to be able to make a smarter transition, and Mr. Leanhardt has occasionally moved to the king's capital of Altair, the kingdom, in order to buy magic materials. They say if I hold hands with the surgeon, I can metastasize with them, too, but it depends on the fact that I haven't had a chance and haven't tried it yet.

This city is like a paradise because it's all fresh in my eyes and yet so peaceful. Much smaller than the king's capital of the kingdom of Altair, there is no inconvenience in living.

Besides, all the people living here were just drawing the blood of the Lewayne clan, and there was nothing like scorning each other. Among them, Mr. Lenhardt and Mr. Charlotte, with Lewayne's surname, were apparently the direct descendants of the princess and the escort knight at the sight of the people of the city. Accompanied by that, I'm getting people in the city to care about something, too.

There's just one thing I care about.

I looked back at the path I had just taken and looked towards the centre of the city where the shops gathered.

There are so many young people and children in this city. From time to time, I see people and old people as old as my parents, but too few. I think this may be the case if you tell me that the old man is slowing down the rest of his life in some other city, but it was really strange that there were few residents in his thirties and forties around the working age.

I'm wondering if there's a reason, but I'm really hesitant. I am the daughter who once followed the royal family who was at war with the Le Wayne clan. I wondered what I would do if I felt bad for some delicate reason, and the words didn't come out.

"Morning, Layla. Was there anything interesting?

Thinking blurry, Mr. Leanhardt came out of the mansion. He says it's still early in the morning, but he weaves a magic division jacket with gold embroidery in dark blue.

"Good morning, Mr. Leanhardt. I was just in love with the view."

"I wonder if there was anything so beautiful in this city that I could admire it."

Mr. Leanhardt came right beside me with a gentle grin. Mr. Leanhardt is taller for one head than I am, so I can't see your face without looking up lightly. Even today, he has a terribly neat face. But there was a gentle personality everywhere, and now there was me somewhere to be relieved when I saw Mr. Leanhardt.

"Are you out so early in the morning?

"Yeah, in the inspection of the eastern junction of the Wang capital. I'll be back at noon."

"You're busy...... How would you like to have breakfast?

The breakfast of the Le Wayne family is served what Mr. Charlotte, who lives apart, made and set aside the day before. Mr Charlotte has an adorable lady who is almost 4 years old with her husband, so life is basically separate.

I mean, it's practically just Mr. Leanhardt and me living in this mansion. I don't even have a servant, so it's really just the two of us. It was at the beginning that I was reluctant to live in the same mansion as a man who was also not my fiancée, but now I spent as much time as time allowed, reading books and chatting without other love.

"I got one apple that was in the kitchen. Leila, eat up to my share and get better."

"You can't eat for two."

If you laugh when you dull, Mr. Leanhardt stares at me as merciful. He often gives me this look. I don't mean to be complacent, but I feel so cherished that my heart hole gets blocked every day. I still don't know why Mr. Leanhardt proposed to me, but I hope he does gradually. If we have a warm relationship this way, there will surely be a day to figure it out.

"Well, I'll be there. I know you're going to the store today, but don't push it."

"Okay. Take care and go."

I just walked out a few steps and Mr. Leenhardt waved back at me. I also wave back softly to respond to it. Looking at the happy Mr. Leanhardt smile warms my heart.

It's like my wife's dropping off her husband.

I accidentally thought about that and my cheeks got hot even though it was what I thought. Must be slightly red stained. I was embarrassed as soon as I thought so, and I went in to re-hold my shopping baggage and escape into the mansion.
