On the day I decided to go out with the leader of the regiment, the blue sky with no clouds spread.

Even though it's a park, I'm going out to socialize, so today's outfit is an aristocratic dress.

Even so, since it was a date outside, I had the maids who always helped me change into something that was not very gorgeous and easy to move.

Today's outing begins in the evening for some reason, and I also wear a coat with fur on the edge with the advice that it will definitely be cold.

The leader of the regiment knew better than I did.

The horse-drawn carriage that you gave me to the front door of the laboratory at the appointed time was not noticeable, but it was a fine one that the nobility could tell at a glance that it was a horse-drawn carriage.

Unlike the captain who came down from the carriage, when he went to the imperial capital before, it was dressed with a gorgeous embroidery that could be seen as an aristocrat.

Looking good-looking looks good on you no matter what you wear, but it's better than I expected today.

The group leader who dresses like an aristocrat feels 1.5 times more dazzled than our company.

I can see it from a distance, but I'm embarrassed to be nearby and can't look directly at it.

When I got escorted in the carriage, I pulled out my gaze and survived, pretending to look at my feet.

The performance was near the center of the capital city.

There are many other aristocratic carriages parked at the carriage departure point, as well as social gatherings.

When I got off the carriage and looked around, I saw other aristocratic people.

However, because it was time, unlike us, it seemed like we were about to return.

Let's go.

Yes.

Stepping into the park while being escorted by the regiment leader.

It was only used for walking by aristocrats, and it was maintained so that it was easy to walk inside.

The road was carefully levelled with grass, and a nicely pruned shrub was planted on the side.

There were tree-lined streets with trees planted at equal intervals, and grass was also planted as an accent.

In spite of the cold weather, there were flower beds with colorful flowers.

While enjoying a different view from the royal garden, he shares his impressions of the garden with the head of the delegation.

Spring and summer are not blossom seasons, but winter gardens are a thing of the past.

Then, as I went deeper, I saw a black iron fence.

There's something like a gate with guards standing beside it, maybe on the edge of the park?

But it doesn't look like it's on the edge, because the trees are as gloomy as the woods behind the fence.

While in doubt, the leader moves toward the guard.

Alberto Hawk.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.

When the leader called himself, the guard opened the gate.

After a light conversation with the smiling guard, he was taken by the leader of the regiment and dived into the gate.

"It looks like it was closed, is there anything further?"

“Yeah. The royal family is the only place on this side of the fence.”

Huh!? Really?

I got permission this time for the asses.

"For me!?"

I'm surprised to hear that.

Surrounded by a fence, the area was dedicated to the royal family.

It could be used as a party venue for royalty.

The royal palace also has a garden, but it seems to be good because it has a different style.

Is that what it is?

I have a subtle feeling that I can't, I can't, but there are things that are more important than that.

What does it mean for me?

Did you say that you had permission from His Majesty for this date?

Is this the kind of place I could use for a little personal use?

I still hadn't finished questioning it, but the forest was broken off, and I wasn't thinking anymore about the sight that was reflected in my open sight.

Wow!

Wow, this is amazing!

A fantasy scene spread out in front of her, so much so that she cheered.

What should I say there, the ice view (?) was spreading.

From the beginning, the trees turned into icy objects, sparkling with the rays of the setting sun.

No, wait.

It's not just the sun.

If you look closely, you can see things glowing from the branches.

That colored, glowing, perhaps magical, nucleus!?

Huh? Why is there such a thing on the tree!?

Recently, I was stunned to find a light of the same color as the light I saw in the theater shining in the trees.

What the hell is going on?

With his eyes wide open, the leader of the group standing next to him explained to me.

I tried to recreate what Sae told me before, but what do you think?

"... are you talking about illumination?"

"Yes, it is."

Pull the memory out of the words I heard before and the words in front of me.

I feel like I once talked about illumination when I was talking to the leader of the regiment about the original world.

It was a Christmas illumination.

Yes, it is.

I remember talking about it being decorated every year during the cold winter months.

Did you remember me?

"Oh, I thought it was something like this, wasn't it?"

"No... it's like this."

“Great, I've seen it every year, so I prepared it for you to enjoy.”

"That's right." Thank you. It's very beautiful. ”

So... this ice pickled tree was made by the Commander of the regiment?

The team leader could use Ice Attribute Magic, so it could be.

Whatever it is, I think I'm doing my own magic for the nucleus.

Don't forget to engrave a very laborious sight in your eyes.

Then, turning to the head of the regiment to thank him again, he took his right hand for some reason.

What is it?

When I looked up to ask for the truth, I saw the head of the group with a serious expression in my eyes.

Grabbing my right hand and wrapping it in both hands, the head of the regiment opens his mouth.

“I like you. Please, marry me."

I was stuck in my breath when the leader confessed.

Married?

No, before that, do you like it?

Huh? Did the commander mention me?

I felt like I could hear words that were most convenient to me, but it wasn't empty ears, was it?

Even if I stared at the head of the group as if to confirm, I still had a serious expression of nervousness.

In the back of my eyes, there's no such thing as a pupil.

Are you sure, now that I've been confessed by the leader of the regiment?

Unbelievably, the leader opened his mouth.

"I was actually going to close the distance more slowly."

Slower, slower?

“Yeah, because Sae wasn't used to this kind of thing.”

There are a lot of things that come to mind in the words of the leader of the group, and my cheeks are slightly hot.

Yes, I'm not used to it.

In retrospect, did the kissing on the back of the hand, the leaning on the cheek, and all of that behavior actually confirm how accustomed I am?

The commander's expression clouded as he thought of something that didn't matter.

"But I couldn't slow down anymore." In addition to me, there are more people who want to know about Sei. "

"That's..."

I couldn't help but feel calm when I listened to the conversation with Master Dreves.

"Ah....."

"I didn't want anyone else to take you."

The name of the Division Commander appeared, and I was still stunned when it became known.

However, it didn't seem like I was worried.

That rumor seems to have stirred up a competitive spirit on the part of the Commander.

That's why I feel so relieved even if I'm careless.

"Of course, I'm not going to ignore Sei's feelings." But if you don't like it, could you take my hand? I'll take care of it for the rest of my life. "

I felt something twitching up from my feet when I was caught in the leader's serious eyes.

I'm glad.

I'm so glad.

I'm going to nod my head in no time.

However, I didn't have the confidence to peek in my face.

Do you mind if I do too?

When asked in a trembling voice, the leader responded with a powerful voice.

"I like you."

Is it out of joy?

My vision oozes with twitching.

My throat is shaking and I can't seem to speak out.

Instead of replying, if I grabbed the captain's hand that wrapped my hand, the captain would take it seriously.

When the leader's face breaks, he pulls me into his arms and hugs me.

I also put my arms around the back of the regiment leader and gently hugged him back.
