The Villain Daughter Enjoys Her Seventh Life as a Free-Spirited Bride (Hostage) in a Former Enemy Country

For the fifth time in his life, the man who was the head of the hunter group to which Richie belonged always had a strange smile.

The whole face is sweet and tidy, with a slightly eye-catching finish.

When I stared at others, my gaze was exquisite, and I acted like I was standing in the middle of friendliness and familiarity.

Hair is often maroon and cut into unconventional shorts.It's long, but it's not as expensive as it stands out, and its body is thin and bony.

When I looked at the age, was it around 20 years old?The women liked him mostly and accepted him as a close friend.

But there are too many lies for him.

Hey, Richie, you're still cute today.

I often smile with no heart at all and slap my mouth like this.

Chestnut hair is not his true hair color.I actually dye my blonde hair close to orange with a special medicine.

His hair type, which he said was "hair habits from birth", was the result of staining damage.

I don't know if my age is the same as it looks.While interacting with a lot of women, there is no sincerity in their relationship.

"Me? No, I don't like anyone in there."

At the end of the quote, none of the names he bears is his real name.

And he gives bold instructions to his men with the same smile that he gives when he makes Riesch look like he's joking.

Did the prey notice the siege net?Well, it's no big deal if you give it to me.... if we finish hunting before we can escape, we'll win, right? "

In front of Riesch and the others, he named himself "Raul."

You behave unfamiliarly and follow the hunters in any situation.

Still, he was so enthusiastic about his work that his behavior was unimaginable.

─ Raul!

Returning to the hunting cabin and removing the hood she was wearing, Riesch was shocked to see Raul standing up.

Maybe you're not going hunting in that state, are you?

Richie's hunch is correct, and his friends look in trouble.Raul shrugged his shoulders and mourned deliberately.

What is it, Richie, you can't connect.We're like family, so when we get back, we're like, "I'm home, right?"

Don't try to distract me!My ribs are cracked, so I told you not to move for a while. "

"It's okay, I think I can do anything right now because Richie's painkillers are working."

While wearing a hunting jacket, Raul smiles.

Sasuka is our goddess of luck.You can improve your bow quickly, get used to the woods, and make medicine!I did a good pickup five years ago. "

"Raul, I told you pain relievers are something you can take a slow rest from, not something you can force yourself to move."

If you say, "Good luck," you might get a little better.

"All I have to say to you is," Sleep until your injuries heal, head master. "

Raul looks happy somehow as Rieschetto narrows her eyes.

Richie took a breath when it seemed unclear.

"... you know, Raul."

"That's the big one."There's no way I could have waited for the prey to come to the hunting grounds. "

In some light smile, only the eyes had sincere emotions.

"I look so serious about loyalty to the Royal Sigwell."

……

That's what Raul said and looked straight at Riesch.

The eyes were deep red.



"- Nevertheless, I can't believe His Highness Curtis brought so many books!"

Sitting next to Arnold, Riesch stroked the cover of the stacked book.

On the fourth floor of the castle, in a newly prepared room on the south side, they are sitting on the sofa together.

I was having a cup of tea before I went to sleep, and I took the book that was handed over as a "hand souvenir" and looked at it.

Each other has already bathed and changed into sleeping clothes.

Arnold, who usually hides his neck, also seems to wear comfortable clothes when sleeping, and he can see up to his clavicle with a shirt without buttons.

"Look, Your Highness. Even the detailed cover design is printed very beautifully."

Riesch smiles and Arnold gives a pale reply.

I see.

He seemed indifferent at first glance, but he also had a book with him.If you weren't really interested, you wouldn't even have it in the first place.

(I'm starting to understand Lord Arnold, too.)

Arnold said, scrolling around the page.

"It's not as painful as being transported by boat."

"In order to make it easier to store, there is also a focus on paper.It's fun to get to know the book making technology of Sigwell just by taking it from you. "

After saying that, Rieschett looked a long way away.

(... but that Curtis is not a fake himself...)

What comes to mind is a brief greeting in the reception room about an hour ago.

Sometimes they arrived in the middle of the night, where they stayed only to greet and receive souvenirs.However short it may be, it is sufficient to ascertain the conjecture.

I saw you for the first time.My name is Curtis Samuel Fallon, First Prince of Sigwell. "

A slightly frustrating but thoughtless greeting and a modest smile.

It was even a little habit, but it was the behavior of Curtis that Richie knew.

(Her face is His Highness Curtis and her voice is the same.Besides, if Lord Arnold and Lord Curtis were to meet for the first time, we wouldn't be able to spot them on the Garchain side. ― Originally speaking

Still, Riesch knows.

Although not depicted in the portrait, the real Curtis eyes are pale green like olives.

That's definitely Raul.

Raul, who saw Riesch in the reception room, didn't change his complexion.

However, Harriet's "guard", who exchanged his sword in the alley, could not have realized that Arnold's fiancée.

(But why would Raul pretend to be His Highness Curtis...?Does Harriet know about this?Maybe something happened to His Highness Curtis....)

Meanwhile, Riesch asked Arnold.

"Lord Arnold, where have you been in the city today?"

One of the things that bothers me is that Arnold came here.

Though I've tried to pretend to be a simple curiosity, I may be aware of my intentions.Arnold says quietly as he rolls the book.

I was going around some bureaux de change.

"A bureau de change...."

Most countries with seas have bureaux de change with other countries in port towns.

Naturally, to exchange the currency of other countries brought in by ships or the like for the currency of their own countries.And of course, it can play the opposite role.

"Most trade ships with the western continent exchange money in this city.If you look at this city's bureaux de change, you can see 'which countries in the western continent needed the currencies of our continent'. "

"In other words, it's obvious which countries to prioritize."

"Favrania is still a little more valuable than Sigwell."

They say it deliberately, but Arnold's story is interesting.Apparently, the idea of national government was similar to that of a merchant.

"These things can easily be deceived when reporting.It's quite effective to show your face occasionally and hear reports directly. "

(... though, I don't think you're telling me the whole purpose...)

That's just how much I know, so Riesch thought about it.

(Since I don't know what His Highness Arnold's intentions are, I can't circumventionally share the movement on the side of Sigwell.... and Raoul's aim is not to harm Garchain.)

For the country of Sigwell, we will not want the opportunity to forge friendly relations with the great Power of Garchain.It is hard to imagine that Raul, who serves the royal family, would act in such a way as to obstruct it.

(In that case, Mr. Harriet, why are you involved?Or because His Highness Curtis is ill and moves as a pure shadow warrior.....)

Thinking about it, Arnold raised his face from the book and stared at us.

When she realized it, Riesch stopped thinking perfectly.

Well, what's the matter?

……

If you're ejected by blue eyes, you're going to see through your thoughts.

When Arnold let go of his hand, which was holding the edge of the page, he rubbed Richie's hair.

"You tied your hair before you went to sleep."

"This is...."

As Arnold pointed out, Riesch now has coral hair in a loose three-knit shape.

Instead of tying it back, it's a sideways haircut.Of course, I don't usually knit deliberately before going to bed.

For the fifth time in the hunter's life, Riesch often weaves these three knittings.

He was wearing a hood during the hunt to hide his prominent hair colour, making it easier for him to tie his hair.

"I just remembered the old days."

Huh?

It's like tickling a cat's tail, touching the tip of a three-knit.

That said, Arnold hung his finger on the chiffon ribbon and pulled it gently.

"Ah"

Rieschett grabbed the three knitted knits with her hands.

But Arnold caught Riesch's hand, and he eventually let it go.

There is no problem because I am going to bed soon, but I feel somehow ashamed that Arnold has broken my hair.

"... like a prank..."

"What?"

Arnold had a pleasant smile when he pretended to look up at Riesch to deceive him about his embarrassment.

I think so.



It sounded so gentle that Riesch was deeply surprised.

At the end of the sentence, my hair was brushed with a hand comb and I felt restless.

"Um, Your Highness, already."

"What is it?"

"... I want to go to sleep now...!"

When Riesch stood up, she grabbed Arnold's hand and pulled it.

"Now, let His Highness sleep too!We have a lot to do tomorrow, and I'm tired of traveling from Garchain! "

……

Thought you might say something, but Arnold closed the book at hand.Then he stood on the sofa and went to the bed in relief.

The two lined beds are about 50 centimeters apart between the side tables.

Arnold was happy that he chose the window without saying anything because he said he was afraid of the sound of the night waves.

"Turn off the lamp."

"Yes, good night."

……

Having heard Rieschett's greeting, Arnold silences as if he had heard a word he is not familiar with.

But afterwards, he returned it with a soft voice.

"Good night."

……

Tonight's moonlight is very bright.

Even if the lamp lights go out and the curtains are closed, you can see Arnold in the darkness.

Riesch turned to him and talked to him on his side.

"... I'm sorry, Your Highness."

"What is it?"

Arnold only points his face towards us.

Riesch lowered her eyebrows a little and sincerely apologized to Arnold.

"You slept with me as much as I could."

"Nothing... it's better than letting you sleep alone in fear."

That's what I'm going to say, and I'm going to do it.

And Arnold asked Riesch.
