Episode 6: Horses in the Way of Love * 5

Then Olivi and the guards decided to interview each other separately.Me and Mersen will be in each room, and Olivi and Mersen will be in charge of the guards.

And the Knights of the Bones were present half by half.I thought I might want to use it as a reference for the inquiry, so I suggested that I visit Mr. Mersen, but he left exactly half of me in my room, starting with mine. [M]

... I wonder if you're trying to do your duty to the person you brought in.I have a strong sense of responsibility.

And we were supposed to hear from Olivi-kun...

"... I mean, you're the Drab family's three men, so it's okay to marry a fallen aristocrat, and whatever it is, it doesn't matter how many wives there are... and above all, I wonder if it's okay if you wanted Phoenix."

"Ha, yes...."

... Olevi, you've been very cooperative.Of course, the content of the range that a 12-year-old boy knows, but I still know a lot about it.

First of all, it seems that Olivi was suddenly caught by his father saying, "We found your partner."

His father and I headed for Red Gard territory.And my gallery. It was Carnelia who showed me the painting I had painted, and my father taught me, "This is it."

As for Carnelia, Olivi was also told about her personality, and that she was a wrongdoing child of the Ziolen family, but she still had custody of her while she was on the run, or that she still had various rights... well, she knew that Ziolen was in a state where she could talk a lot.

I brought Carnelia and Olivi to talk about your marriage to your father, as Mr. Crowe expected, Mr. Ziolen.Olivi himself... well, Giolen doesn't seem to have a very good impression, but Phoenix seems to be attracted to him, and Carnelia has also been told by her father... "I don't want you to be my real wife", so he wrote to Carnelia this time with a light feeling.

... yeah. Well, I'm a 12-year-old, so I don't really think about getting married.Especially in this world, there seems to be a lot of polygamy.

It's just a little complicated for me.

I know it's a very selfish feeling... but I really want you to like Carnelia, or I don't want Carnelia to be disappointed in such a way that she's so in love and fluffy.

... no, it's selfish.I'm sure you're rude to Carnelia, but that's why I can't be angry with you.I'm sorry about Olivi, but above all, I'm sorry about Carnelia.

However, after listening to Olevi's story with the Knights of the Bones disappointed, there was something I couldn't wipe out... I asked Olevi.

"Olevi."

"Ha, ha!

Olivi, who was afraid to watch us drop his shoulders, corrected his posture and replied well.... I wonder.I'm sorry you disappointed us.I guess I'm not a bad boy at all... no, I just want to think about it.

No, but I have to ask you something here.We need to be clear.

It's completely irrelevant and useless, but it's important for a 12-year-old boy and, above all, an 11-year-old girl who falls in love.

"Do you like Carnelia?

As soon as I asked you that, Olivi pounded. [M]

... that looks like an unexpected question.Or, I've never thought about it, like, a face like that.

So... I didn't really like it, but my father suggested it to me and Carnelia just started approaching me.

"Eh, ah, well... as a wife, I want to welcome you in.That's true..... "

"What if I told you to give up Carnelia because I'm going to give you a Phoenix?

Changing the way I heard it, Olivi sparkled his eyes. [M]

"Phoenix is here!?

"No, I'm not here..."

"Well, then, getting a Phoenix is...."

"No, it doesn't mean Carnelia won't transfer Phoenix without her permission after all."

Phoenix, if you let me out, I'll let you out.But he's not here right now.With that in mind, Olivi-kun turned his gentle eyes towards me and said, "I can't believe you're embarrassing me."Uh, sorry.

"... that means you like Phoenix better than Carnelia."

And I was a little sorry, but I was a little relieved.

I don't want Carnelia to have a relationship that involves more interests than favors.Somehow... no, this is my own idea, too...

I saw that Olivi was surrounded by the Knights of the Bones and was in trouble, so I decided to ask the Knights of the Bones to leave.No, I mean, it's narrow.This room is a little cramped for the Knights of Bones.

By the way, if Mr. Dioren's interrogation is over, I told him that I would like him to call Laocles or Mr. Crowe, so I'm sure the Knights of the Bones will bring one of them.They are smart and, above all, great negotiators and caring people.

"... what the hell was that monster?"

As soon as the Knights of the Bones were gone, Olevi showed a slightly suspicious attitude.Ah, maybe you were nervous because you weren't used to the Knights of the Bones.I'm sorry I didn't notice.

"They are the guardians of this forest.Knights of Bones "

When I explained, Olivi nodded as if he understood... he took a breath and then asked me a question.

That was a while ago.

"Yeah."

Olivi, who's feeling a little better, looks at me a little and says,

"There's nothing wrong with me marrying Mr. Carnelia."

"Huh? Yeah. Ah, I knew you liked Carnelia."

When I answered the question with a little expectation, Olivi started saying the following words to confirm without answering it.

"If she wants to marry me because she likes me, you can't stop her."

"Mmm...."

It's a bit complicated, but I'm sure I can't stop it... no, I want to stop it.I'm a little confused if I can stop it.

"Then what I do will not change.She..... "

... when I'm soaking up, there's a rattling sound coming back.

Along with that, Olivi made his body a little stiffer... but the Knights of Bones just peeked at us from the door and didn't get into the room.Instead, when Mr. Crowe does, he comes in.

"Corn. We're done here.I have a few things to check on, so I'd like you to meet Giolen and the others, okay?

Fine. I thought it was over because of Crowe and the others, but I was sure of it.I knew it wasn't professional.I haven't heard much from Olivi. [M]

"Yeah, I don't mind, but... Olivi, you too."

Upon confirmation, Olivi nodded with a disgusting face. [M]After all, I wonder if Mr. Dioren has anything to think about...

Then I tried to meet Giolen and Olivi...

"Here, this kid ordered us!Steal the gems!

"I don't have to say that!Shame on you! Not just you, but you're going to mud our names!

... we got into a big fight.

"That's why I hated it!I can't believe I'm involved with the Diorens of the Fallen Nobles!I don't know what your father thought!

"I often say it to the habit of jumping into this story!Do you think there's a way to avoid falling without my daughter Carnelia's Phoenix?

"Yes! You seemed interested in the gems Carnelia wore!Happy to make up for the loss this quarter, but earn far more than that!?

"You must have been the one who told me to send half of them here to be my bride's tool!

"Ah, Master Olevi!That's why I shouldn't have been involved with a lowly, fallen aristocrat!I wonder why the Phoenix has fallen into the hands of the sinners... oh, what a misfortune. "

I watched the fight between Mr. Ziolen and his son, as well as between you and his escort, and I thought, oh, you're noble, too.You say you're an expert, or you're realistic... and you're cruel.Areas that will break apart.

... and Crowe, Laocles, Marsen, and the Knights of the Bones nodded convincingly as they watched the big fight... and Crowe said.

"They're all ugly."

Then, lightly!

Then, about Dioren and the others, I decided to put them in jail.I put a cell in Marpink's time, and that's what's working for me now.

... I'm not really happy that prison is useful.

And as for you, Olivi... whatever you do, you're going to go through the courtroom, so I'm going to have to go home for today.

"... well, I think my father is going to send me a letter or something, so please tell your father that."

When Fay said that with a slightly troubled face, Olivi nodded with a hard expression.

And Olivi, along with his escort, almost left the forest town...

"Wait!

... Carnelia jumped out there.

"Mr. Carnelia!

Seeing that, Olivi brightens his face.

... that reminds me of what Olivi said earlier.'If she wants to marry me because she likes me, you can't stop her.'

Certainly, if Carnelia had a really strong feeling in her, no matter how much we stopped her, she could do as much as she wanted.She can go anywhere if she takes the Phoenix.

... but...

"Carnelia! Wait, wait, wait!

I grabbed Carnelia's hand and tried to stop her...

... hihi, hihi, burrurururu.Hihi.

For some reason, I suddenly heard the horse hissing from the sky, and I, Carnelia and Olivi, all the people who were there, looked up at the sky.

From the sky... an incredible number of horses flew in.

"Heh? Heh!

And as the horses descended on the ground, they ran right in front of me and Carnelia.It's like a horse's river.Horse River. It also flows very fast.It's like a mountain stream.

... so there's a river of horses between us and Olevi.

In the meantime, the tempura that came off the river... a few tempura horses came to us and surrounded Carnelia.

And as if you were happy to be next to her, hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip-hip wings.In addition, the nostalgic rubbing appeared... um, somehow the word "honey trap" came to mind in my head.

"... well, what's wrong?

Carnelia looked at the horse's river and stroked the horses in turn.

... and while stroking the horses, Carnelia murmured.

"Horses, I don't like seeing Olivi."

I saw Carnelia's side. [M]

As for the face of an 11-year-old girl, it seemed like she was grown up and her eyes staring at the other side of the horse river were much clearer than I thought.

"... it's hard to fall in love."

And with a little sigh, Carnelia looked up at me.

"Hey, Corn? What the hell did Olivi do to make horses hate him?

I wondered if I could explain it.

But I thought it was selfish not to explain.

It's rude to treat a child with such an adult face.That's why I open my mouth.

"You know, Carnelia.Actually.... "

It was then.

"... Carnelia!

Lian grabbed Carnelia's hand.

Carnelia looked a little surprised, but Lian was even more delusional than Carnelia.

... and about a minute after Lian grabbed Carnelia's hand.

"Well, don't be so depressed...."

Lian said that.

Carnelia, who was pounding, loosened up and blinked.

"... did you look depressed?

Yes, when I asked her while tilting her neck, Lian turned to her side as if she were shrinking, but without letting go of Carnelia's hand, she whispered.

"Eh, no... that's just what I thought..."

... Carnelia, who heard Lian's answer, blinked again several times...

"... fufufu"

Carnelia is small and breathes.

"Fufufu... no, Lian!

And I laughed like I cut a weir.When I saw Carnelia laughing, Lian was pounding.

"It's okay. I'm not depressed!

That's what Carnelia said... and then I thought about it a little bit and said it.

"I've decided to shake Olivi."
