The days since the group leader proposed to me have been a little more rushed than ever.

Actually, it's not like that. It's just that I was floating around, so maybe I just felt that way.

Even if the world changed, there was still a lot to be done after receiving the proposal.

One of them was a face-to-face encounter with the other's family.

I was far from being in love in the original world, but I knew that when I got married, I would meet both families.

It seems to be the same in this world.

Rather, the aristocratic system and the contracts between the houses seem to be more rigid in this part of the world.

If you're married to an aristocrat, you must.

That's why I decided to meet with the leader's family.

After being proposed, it took a while for us to meet each other because everyone in the family was busy.

Well, it can't be helped.

Your parents are working vigorously in the territory as frontier uncles, and your upper brother is the Minister of the Treasury, and your lower brother is the deputy division commander of the court mage regiment, and each holds an important position in the royal palace.

Since the leader of the Knights' College is also the leader of the Knights' College, I may be the most amateur of all those involved.

I feel that the words that I don't know have been played back to my brain with a familiar voice, but it's probably because of my imagination.

It was decided that the meeting would take place at noon on a certain day in the residence of the Peripheral Household in the King's capital.

The location was prepared by the chief of the regiment, so the only thing I can prepare is a handmade souvenir that I will give to your family and the clothes for the day.

It's just that I think so, and there may be something else I need to prepare for.

After all, this is a different world.

It is not surprising that there are customs I do not know.

So I decided to rely on a powerful helper.

I relied on the teacher of the manners lecture.

I have been taking care of you every day and it was easy to talk to you, but I am an expert at any rate.

With the teacher's approval, there will be no problem.

After consulting with the teacher, it was decided that preparations for the day would be made at the Royal Palace.

After all, it seems that wearing a dress is a must when meeting the Bordeaux family, which is also a high position among the aristocrats in this country.

The dress could not be worn by herself, so she needed to prepare for the royal palace, just as she needed a manners lecture.

I don't like wearing dresses, but TPO is important.

That's why I accepted this time without resisting.

Unusually, because I was a grown-up?

Or is it because I heard you're coming to face-to-face for your engagement?

The maids of the royal palace, who had heard from the teacher of manners, had done it.

Even Marie, who doesn't usually show much emotion, seemed very enthusiastic, and she even suggested that we prepare to stay at the Royal Palace the day before.

I didn't have much choice but to nod.

The day we met.

Thanks to the maids who had been enthusiastic enough since the early morning, I was as beautiful○ as Jain at the unveiling party.

The dress that the royal palace prepared for this day was a layer of white chiffon over a layer of lemon yellow fabric.

In addition, the chiffon fabric is embroidered with white thread of the same color with small flowers, which is perfect for the warmer seasons.

The hair style was tied up in halves and decorated with white carnations.

I felt a little tired from the careful preparation in the morning, but when I looked in the mirror, I felt exhilarated and the tiredness was relieved a lot.

The face-to-face encounter in the form of a perfect noble lady was carried out without success.

I was a little nervous until I arrived at the mansion, but the Hawk family warmly welcomed me when I greeted them at the door, so I felt nervous and went somewhere quickly.

The Frontier Uncle and his wife had already met in the territory, and the eldest son, the Minister of Justice, and his wife had also met at a party held at the Royal Palace.

I have met Inteli Glasses, the deputy division commander of the second son's court magic division, many times at work.

The leader of the regiment and the intelligent glasses were unusual, and although they were slightly embarrassed by the aristocratic attire, the contents were the same.

Since they were all like that, I had a good time at the luncheon after the greeting.

At the luncheon, I went up to talk about the crusade with the group leader, the life in the original world, and the story of your family.

It was probably because of my mind that I felt that the smiles of the Marginal Uncle and the Eldest Uncle and Wife who were listening to me about my life when I was in Japan had hardened.

It was very interesting to hear the story of your brother from Uncle Frontier.

The Minister of the Treasury laughed bitterly, Inteli Glasses held a wrinkle between his eyebrows, and the head of the regiment asked with a troubled expression and the appearance of the three men, but it was too much fun, and the wife of the Minister of the Treasury and the two of them forced the Frontier Uncle to talk a lot.

Xing finally got on board and finished eating dessert when she noticed.

It's fast to pass the fun time, isn't it?

“Really. I'm sorry I asked you to talk to me.”

"It doesn't matter. You are my (my) lovely daughter, too." But I still want to talk, so didn't I continue in the living room? "

When I heard Mrs. Margin and the Minister's wife talking, Mrs. Margin turned her head towards me.

Still want to talk?

I think we've achieved the goal of matchmaking, but is there anything else?

Anyway, if you say you have a Boundary Lady, I think you should talk to her.

Nodding back, Mrs. Margin smiled and urged everyone to move.

“I want to talk about the future.”

“What are you going to do?”

After moving into the living room, where tea and sweets were served in front of everyone, Mrs. Bordeaux opened her mouth.

There is nothing that comes to mind when I say what will happen in the future, and I will return it to you.

Without disgusting her face, Mrs. Frontier continued to speak.

"You have to go through the engagement process first, don't you?"

“Yes, I spoke to His Majesty the King the other day when I asked him for his report.”

"Yeah, Albert said that, too." His Majesty will take care of Takanashi-sama. "

"Yes, I understand that the engagement process will be with His Majesty and the Boundary Master."

"Very well, then, I will speak with His Majesty about the details."

When I heard about the engagement process, I remembered the other day when I went to report the engagement to His Majesty the King.

As I told the Frontier Uncles, the various procedures related to my engagement were to be undertaken by His Majesty as a guardian.

Just like when the noble lady of this country gets engaged, it is said that the royal palace will prepare everything that the female relatives have to prepare, such as bringing money with them.

To be honest, I'd appreciate it if you could just take a hindsight, so I thought I'd decline to bring the money with me.

His Majesty did not forgive me.

Whatever it is, it seems that my achievements have been accumulated in the creation of a panacea or the crusade of monsters, and yet I do not receive a territory or a title, so there seems to be a traffic jam in my rewards.

I couldn't refuse to accept my engagement because I wanted to get rid of the traffic a little.

Well, it's about bringing money, and it's not the title or territory that's given away, it's the money.

There is no problem if it is not something out of hand.

"I'll leave the process to you." After that, I'll have to reveal it to you as well. "

When you say "reveal", you mean "reveal", right?

His Majesty was talking about the disclosure of the engagement, as was the story of the guardianship.

Certainly, we will have a celebration at the Royal Palace after the irritation problem is cleared up, so I thought you said that we should announce our engagement at that time.

When I reported to His Majesty, the Commander was with me, so let's check with him.

Thinking so, she called out to the leader of the group who sat next to her.

Hawk-sama.

As soon as I called, everyone's gaze turned to me.

Your body shakes unexpectedly.

For a moment I wondered what had happened, but soon I realized why.

Without thinking about it, all the people here were "Hawk-sama."

What do we do?

I'd like to talk to the leader of the regiment...

As soon as I was worried about how to clean up this situation, my eldest son, the Minister of the Arms, sent me a rescue boat.

Takanashi-sama.

Yes, yes!

“I'm going to be a family. If you like, I'd like you to call me Joseph."

Joseph.

Lady Joseph.

The Minister of Internal Affairs nodded to Joseph, who spoke happily somewhere, and now a voice came from next to Joseph.

"Well! Then please call me Elfriede!"

"Thank you! So, can you call me Sei too?"

Are you sure?

Absolutely!

Sitting next to Joseph is his wife, Elfriede.

Elfriede asked me to shine her eyes and call her by name. If I smiled and returned it in the same way, she gave a pathetic smile as if her buds were falling.

And they were followed by the two of them.

"Well, well, you're close!" Now, shall I call you my mother-in-law? "

Well, then, I'm like your father-in-law.

It was Mrs. Margin who joined the conversation with an even brighter voice, followed by Mrs. Margin who joined the fight.

"Otusamasama..."

Yeah, considering what's coming, it's not a strange request.

It's just a little shiny.

I nodded to the two of them with a smile on my face, and when I gave them my consent, I heard a calm voice saying, "That's not good."

Turning to his voice, his gaze met that of Joseph, who had a serious look on his face.

If that's what you call your parents, then it's you and me, brother-in-law.

If that's the case, why don't you join me?

"That's true, too." Brother-in-law Joseph, is it better? "

Yeah. I'm Air's brother-in-law.

I need you to hold on a second.

It's not something that the Minister of War and the deputy division commander of the court magic division will discuss with a serious face, is it?

What do you mean!?

Looking at the exchange between the two with a twisted smile, Joseph looked at us and loosened his eyes.

What? Are you kidding me?

I wonder if Mr. Joseph is a pretty good-looking man, regardless of his appearance.

Joseph's gaze slipped to the side as he felt uncomfortable with the unexpected.

At the forefront of the line of sight is the leader of the group.

After years of dating, you must have understood what was expected of you, even without words.

The wrinkles between the foreman's eyebrows became even deeper.

Does that mean that it's hard to move on to action?

How long has it been?

I felt it for a long time, but actually after not much time, the leader opened his mouth as if he had decided to cough.

"I want you to call me Al."

"Al..."

As soon as I repeated it unexpectedly, I didn't really know what it was, but my embarrassment boiled over.

I just wanted to call you by name.

The head of the group struggled in proportion to the temperature of his face as he endured the twitching and burning of his face.

Three seconds later, I noticed that other people were looking at us with warm eyes, and I screamed in my heart.
