It is very rare for Arnold to tell Riesch something in an orderly tone.

(... though, all of my previous causes of death are unique, Your Highness!?)

I couldn't say anything about the protest.

In the first place, there's nothing I can do to tell Arnold here now.But Arnold, who had no idea what was inside of him, peeked into Riesch's face closer.

What did you say?

Huh

The slightly scattered voice feels strangely sweet.

I feel like I'm being scolded, but I feel like I'm being scolded.Looking down with blue eyes equal to jewels, it is stuck in words.

"'Got it.'... If you don't nod like that, you'll be as innocent as you used to be."

"Uhh...."

Arnold stroked the outline of Leicher's lips with his thumb.

Though I didn't touch my lips with a clip, it was a warning touch.A strange tickle is born in your spine, and your spine feels weak and numb.

He said 'before' when he suddenly kissed me.

Even though it is soft to touch, Arnold's eyes are somehow cold.

However, Riesch looked back at his eyes and somehow narrowed his objection.

"... you're pretending to be mean again...!"

……

Sure, I was kissed in a rudimentary way before.

The meaning and sincerity are mysterious, but I know more than that.

For example, when Arnold hides secrets, he acts like a bad man.

"Yes, I can see that.His Highness Arnold is not an innocent man to work without darkness....! "

"... I don't know about that."

"Eh...."

The moment he rounded his eyes, Arnold drew his hips.

Dark eyes look down at Leicher.The contour in his hand doesn't even distract him.

In that state, Arnold bent over to cover himself.

……

The other day's kiss passed the back of her head, and Rieschew closed her eyes sharply.

At the same time, it was clear that the approaching lips were stopped on the verge of overlapping the lips of Riesch.

――――……

Neither lip touched the other.

But it was really close enough that the temperature seeped through the air.

Either Arnold or Riesch will get a second kiss.

"~ ~ ~ ~..."

Reese's eyelashes trembled as she meditated on her tight eyes.

The blinking of Arnold tells us he's not closing his eyes.Arnold probably stared at Riesch's face and eventually left him slowly.

……

"Nh, puha..."

Released, Riesch exhales heavily.He stopped breathing without even realizing it.

(Hmm, I wonder if you're really going to kiss me....)

It can't be, but it's too bad for your heart.I held my hot, burning cheeks with both hands and took a deep breath to calm down.

Arnold raised his eyebrows and said with a big sigh.

"... anyway, there's no way the church could have instructed me to do this.I don't want to obey you, so stay with me. "

"Ha, yes...."

My heart is engraving an incredible bell.While holding it in her palm, Riesch managed to respond.

Arnold sighs again and asks:

"Why did the bishop approach you earlier?"

(That's right. I was advised not to marry you.....)

Leaving that out of her mouth, Riesch looked up at the mural beside her.

"When I was reading the sacred poetry written here, I came to explain it."

I'm not telling you the truth, but I'm not lying.Arnold looks at Riesch and looks at him with an interesting look.

Can you read this letter?

"I was studying, but one time I was interrupted.There are a lot of things I'm not sure about. "

"... where?"

That's how Riesch blinked.

However, it seems that Arnold is waiting for an answer, so I will point to a part of the mural.

"Here's the sentence. When I read the second word normally, it was" spring, "but I thought there might be other ways to read it."

……

Arnold, who looked up at the mural, said as if nothing had happened.

"--read it as' flowers'."



I am deeply surprised to see him.

Arnold told Riesch without hesitation that he would not be interested, but that he would read the usual characters.

"The best known way to read that word is' open ', followed by what you call' spring '.Nevertheless, there is a third way of reading that is rarely used, and it is a "flower" that represents what opens in spring. "

"So... if that replaces the 'flower' of the noun instead of the 'spring' of the time noun, will the words before and after also change how they are read?"

"That's right. - If you read that line, it'll be 'Flower Hair Girl'."

"Wow...."

Arnold's right.

Combined with other sentences, there will be no mistake in his translation.

I'm impressed by the beauty, but I also feel incredible.

"Hello, Your Highness, can you read all of Kurshade?"

"To the extent that it's written here."

"The degree is the original text of the sacred poem!?The rhetoric of sacred poetry is difficult to decipher, and even though there are some specialist researchers...!! "

Even a priest enough to be assisted by a high priest spoke a language that he had finally mastered over a decade.

Riesch only had the opportunity to learn Kurshade from certain circumstances.

Why does Arnold have so much knowledge that he couldn't cover?

"So, what's the text over there?To put it bluntly, it says, "It's the girl who guides me through the four seasons," but it makes me feel uncomfortable. "

"In other words, it is closer to 'guide the girl and repeat the four seasons'.Probably a reference to the festival that the witch princess is holding. "

"... do you know that too?"

It says, "Sing."

Riesch was even more puzzled by the light spinning of the answer.

(The fact that your face is beautiful, your sword is strong, your government and strategy are excellent, and you are educated is not that everything is too weak....)

Kursheed is not a matter of general education, but of expertise.Even the bishops of the congregation say it is standard to use the scriptures written in the letters of their country.

(Speaking of which, there were rumours that the current emperor of Garchain was a devout believer and for that reason did not invade the land of Domana, which has a great temple.)For example, this is the truth, and I would like to educate His Highness Arnold...That's why His Highness hates the Kurshades...)

A cool wind blew on the balcony.

Her hair is stirred up, and Rieschetto holds it in her right hand reflectively.After that, I felt relieved when I looked at my hair.

"Lord Arnold."

"What is it?"

"... I'm not from the witch princess, am I?"

That said, Arnold raised his eyebrows.

"What is that?"

"The sentence" Flower Hair Girl "taught to His Highness earlier."A flower-haired girl draws the blood of a goddess and guides people as a witch princess," she says.

"... that's right."

"In other words, a woman who qualifies as a witch princess is called 'flower-colored hair'...."

Rieschett looked down at her hair, depicting a gentle wave.

This hair has a yellowish pink color.The closest analogy is the color of the coral, but it will never look like the color of the flowers.

"My hair color was inherited from my red-haired mother and blonde father, respectively.It may be a colour that you don't see very much, but it's not something that I said. "

……

"Even if we go back in time to our parents' bloodlines, our fathers' ancestors have a name for the Elmity royal family.So no matter how much I think about it, it's hard to think about drawing the blood of the goddess..... "

As I gradually felt sorry for myself, Riesch lowered her eyebrows unexpectedly.Then Arnold asks.

"... what are you talking about?"

"That's why His Highness Arnold proposed to me.... you think I'm the last survivor to qualify as a witch. "

Bishop Schneider said earlier, 'All the women with the witch's credentials are dead.'

"If a woman who draws the blood of a witch lived and grew up hidden somewhere, marrying that woman would be a huge force for Garchain, wouldn't it?"

……

"But I have nothing to do with the witch princess.So I'm sorry if I misled you and made you propose.... "

……

"... really, what's with that face?"

Arnold glanced and narrowed his eyes and looked at Riesch with a stunned face.

Without knowing why, Arnold sighs several times today and then opens his mouth.

Remember when Kyle likened you to a goddess the other day?



I remember being told that way.

Indeed, when I first met Kyle in my life, I was told, "It's like a beautiful goddess."

It was a social resignation peculiar to Coyol, and Riesch barely heard of it.

But looking back, I can see that Arnold looked very upset.

(Ah!!! Did the word 'Goddess' come out when Lord Arnold looked scared?)

I wondered why I stared at Kyle so much, but it finally fell into my heart.At the same time, I know the depth of Arnold's dislike of the church.

When Riesch was convinced by herself, Arnold looked down quietly.

"... the witch princess's blood line is dull, even if the real goddess shows up, but I'm not interested in that kind of thing"

Richie blinks at his words.

When Arnold had a sincere eye, the glare added to his mysterious beauty.He stares at Riesch and tells him clearly.

"There's only one person I kneel with in the world."

――……

Garchain's proposal is for a man to kneel down on a woman and put his tongue on the back of his hand.

"......!!"

I remember when Arnold did that, and I felt my cheeks burning at once.

Arnold smiled as he watched Riesch panic.A big hand stretches out to me and strokes Richie's head.

"I'm in a better mood. Back to official business."

(You're kidding me...!!)

I wanted to protest, but no words came out immediately.

As a result, you only have to say "Welcome" with a weak voice, and you feel sorry for it.
