The Marquis’ Daughter Acts As A Pawn

- Kiiiiiiiiiiiii

The sound of the wheels whizzing makes a wooden spirit.

Suddenly he appeared, surprised at me and Edward, and the man who was on your side hurried to park the carriage.

Then he yells in angry shapes.

"Absolutely not! What will you do if my important product gets scratched...!

The only man in the carriage was a middle-aged male merchant. In terms of tone and clothing, nobility and the like seem to be a single merchant who doesn't make deals.

(... Now, what settings should we go with? Even when it comes to running off lovers, acting changes with their identities and circumstances)

I didn't have time to have a detailed meeting or make a part of it with Edward.

I can't believe I improvise, my chest jumps. Before the troubled me, Edward takes a step toward the merchant.

"Shh, excuse me! I was relieved that I was out of the woods. I'm sorry for the sudden, but please help us!

"Huh!?

To Edward's thick words, the merchant raises a voice of confusion.

"Actually, we're on our way down. When I escaped from my parents' chase and went into the woods, I was shipwrecked, the beast nearly attacked me and I lost my luggage..."

"Well, I'm sorry to hear that..."

"Of course, I'm not saying free. Anna, give him the diamonds."

Edward said as he played a carefree young man.

I did not miss that the merchant had a humble grin for a moment.

(My role is "Anna." Then......)

As I lowered my brow butt and gave an anxious look, I pulled Edward's clothing hem.

"... so, but, Ed, when this is gone, we're gonna be unsolved, right?

"It's okay. Let's be a traveler then, and earn some road banking. With both of us, we can do anything."

"Right! What no one stands in our way anymore."

When I smiled innocently, I gave a bag of diamonds to the merchant.

When he counts the diamonds carefully, he raises the horn of his mouth with garlic.

"I'll split your clothes. Choose from what's loaded on the carrier. We'll be there in a few hours, in a big city, so I'll drop you off there."

"It's generous and helpful. It's worth stealing from my parents."

"Well, Ed!

Look at me and Edward laughing at each other and gaze down like a merchant.

(You think you're an idiot who doesn't even know the value of a diamond)

If you let them think you're the person below you, they'll take it upon themselves to stay alert and sweeten their judgment. We must sharpen our guard and ask him to deliver us to the city.

(After all, is a small bag with small diamonds commensurate with the danger of smuggling Prince Roland's second prince and his fiancée into the country?

Get on the carrier with Edward and start choosing clothes.

I played the girl in love while hiding my black thoughts.

A few hours rocked by an uncomfortable carriage.

Gradually, I saw the city.

The city is covered with old stone walls that have collapsed everywhere, and you cannot look inside.

"Wow! I finally see the city"

"Anna, it's too much. Give me this far and my father won't come after me anymore. You don't even have to listen to the tedious novels about inheriting the house."

In a proper conversation, me and Edward saw the precinct in front of the city with a rugged eye.

There are several carriages lined up in front of the barracks, and armed soldiers appear to be conducting interrogations.

"... are you looking for Edward?

"Well, I guess so"

Whispering in a low voice, we intensify our vigilance.

When we were lined up in the front row of the barracks, a soldier whispered something to the merchant, pointing to us.

Soldiers stare alternately at Edward with the paper at hand.

"You're not residents of this city, are you?

"That's right. He's a traveler."

Edward replied soothingly.

"... silver hair or blue eyes... what to do to this city?

"I was a traveler and would be happy to make a fortune on my way to the Imperial City"

"I hope I can earn it. Well, come on."

Suitably, when soldiers say so, they give merchants permission to cross.

The carriage slowly crosses the checkpoint.

"You're thrilled, Ed"

"For a moment, I thought you were looking for us, but I'm glad you didn't. Well, I didn't expect my father's influence to reach such a remote city."

"You guys, you said you were travelers, but can you really do a show? After all, is that just a lie?

When the merchant asked him that, he grinned belly-black so that Edward could only see me.

"Yeah, Anna did. I hope so."

(Thought it sounded funny and threw a round at me...!

I curse you like that on the inside, but you can't deny Edward's words. From previous conversations, 'Anna' gives special consideration to 'Ed', a submissive and merchant son. Yet, if you disobey, the setting is rounded.

"Expect it!

I thought through Edward's hand as I said so.
