So, are you okay?

While hurrying to instruct the maid to towel, Riesch rushed to Arnold.Shizukuzuku, who fell from his dark hair, told the tale of the rain.

From behind, Oliver the Servant appears.

"Damn it, it's so chaotic."

The same flooded Oliver looked at Arnold with a stunned face.

"I told you to stay in the rain, but you said you'd come back.Thinking about the cleansing side, this kind of place is unusual. "

"Shut up. You didn't have to follow me."

"That's not why I'm here.Well, I guess I wanted to get back to the castle so soon.... "

"That's why I say shut up."

Arnold scratched up his rain-wet forehair with his right hand after annoying him.

This dreadful technique exposes the unusual forehead.

Looking at Arnold with her forehair up, Riesch took a breath.

"....."

You look more grown-up than usual because of your unfamiliar hair style.

The appearance of the dripping water was somehow dangerous and made me feel troubled by the way I looked.

What's wrong?

With a surprising gaze, Riesch had no choice but to open her mouth.

"... I think His Highness Arnold is artistically beautiful to the shape of his forehead..."

"What about it?"

Ah, the towel just arrived!

After thanking the maids, Riesch took one of them.After spreading it softly, he reaches back toward Arnold.

And he put a towel upon Arnold's head, and wiped me and his dark hair.

…………

Everyone around me, including Oliver, looks at Rieschetto.

……

It's not just the maids.The Knights of the Kinsai who were trying to get towels for each were surprised.

Though I wondered what was going on, I still moved my hand hard.

After a while, Arnold, who couldn't see his face because he was lying down, called out his name with a faint voice.

"... Liesche"

Yes?

"I can wipe myself."

…………

After twinkling twice, Leechee swallowed the situation.

"----Gyuuuuuu!?"

In a hurry, she takes her hand off the towel, and Riesch takes a long pose.

While dressed as' no hostility ', I slipped back by about two steps.

While the knights and maids are stiff, there are signs that only Oliver is laughing, but he can't see you.

"I'm so sorry, please imitate it!!"

"... no"

"Fu, Kuku, thank you, Riesh-sama.I'm sorry, but may I leave you to Lord Arnold? "

Arnold glanced at the unbearable Oliver.But Oliver is not a coward.

"For many minutes, I am like this street.Can you please do that? "

"Wow, wow, I got it!Lord Arnold, come this way...!! "

Anyway, I want to get out of the crowd as soon as possible.With all his heart, he pulled Arnold's arm and headed for the fourth floor.

After pushing Arnold into the room, he hurriedly wiped the water droplets in the hallway.

(Hee, ordinary mind, ordinary mind...!)

Then I checked Naruko's trap and regained a little calm.When I thought it was time, I received the tea prepared by the maid and went back to my room to knock.

"So, Your Highness, have you finished changing?"

Ah.

I was a little nervous when I opened the door.

Open gently, Arnold changes his wet clothes and sits on the sofa in a white shirt.My hair is still wet, but it is not wet enough to cause droplets to fall out.

(Calm down.... yeah, it's okay.)

With a tray with a tea set on it, Riesch slipped in.

"Your Highness, it's tea. It's supposed to be cold before it gets cold."

"Nh"

Arnold returns a brief reply as he reads the documents.Still, his right hand pounded next to the sofa.

I suppose you mean sit down here.Speaking of which, I was called here last night, and I sat next to each other.

I didn't have any questions at that time, but I felt like I could sit across the street from each other.Nevertheless, I didn't bother to turn this down and sit on another couch.

Riesch sat next to her and looked up at Arnold.

Are you ready to visit the bureau de change?

"That's it for today.I'll go around a few more houses tomorrow, and that'll be all.... there's no problem with that. "

"Harriet seems to have a problem and I'm a little worried about that."

I see.

It sounded like I had no interest at all.

Because it is a royal family of an interchangeable country, it seems to be okay to repair it somewhat, but Arnold has no sign of it.

(Speaking of which, when I saw Harriet fall yesterday, there was no sign of Lord Arnold moving...)

On the contrary, when I saw Harriet crying, I really didn't care.Somehow, there are ups and downs in gentleness.

With that in mind, Arnold looked up at the paperwork.

"Your Highness."

"What is it?"

"Does the scar hurt?"

Arnold looks at Riesch with a moment of surprise.

But afterwards, I breathed out and then fell down.

"... occasionally when it rains"

Reese lowered her eyebrows to the words.

Arnold's movements were normal, but when I looked closely, I felt like he was covering his left a little.If I hadn't known he had a scar on his neck, I would hardly have noticed it.

Still, Riesch certainly felt it.

"But how did you know?"

"... Your Highness is starting to feel a little spicy."

Even Riesch isn't always worried about Arnold's condition.I also heard from patients in the life of a pharmacist that old wounds hurt on rainy days.

However, the symptoms of rain echoing old wounds are not clearly medicated.

Worried, Riesch lowers her eyebrows.

"Shall I prepare hot water?If you soak the towel and warm up the scar, it may help a little. "

"Never mind."

"... but..."

Arnold says with a soft voice.

Somewhat lighter. That's why I don't need anything more. "

……

I didn't do anything special, but what does that mean?

Nevertheless, if you go too far, you may find out about this scar.

This scar is also Arnold's only weakness in dealing with godless swordsmanship.

(Speaking of which, Raul in the Hunter's Life said so.)

Five years from now, Sigwell will enter a war with Garchain.

After Harriet tilted the treasury and was executed, he took part in the Fabranian engagement as compensation.

At that time, the hunter group to which Liesche belonged was also used as the royal force.

Nevertheless, Riesch and the others are not used on the battlefield.They were ordered to enter the woods in front of them and sharpen the enemy's strength as much as possible while conducting intelligence operations.

At that time, Raul, who was peeking into the monocular in the shadow of the rock, murmured with a small voice.

"... Arnold Hein may be in trouble."

The hunters, including Riesch, were surprised at the words.

Arnold Hein's appearance has finally been captured for some time now.

The orientation of the sunlight was carefully considered so as not to be noticed by the reflection of the lens, etc., and it was finally confirmed.

But as soon as Raul saw it, he suddenly said something like that.

Raul, are you sure this is a burden?

"Yeah. Maybe on the left side of your body... your upper body?Someone could have injured him. "

Now I think that the injury Raul felt was a scar on his neck.

Leescher didn't know, and he couldn't even see it in the knight's life.Through these two lives, we can finally find out in this world.

But Raul said it in a tone of certainty.

If I aim to the left, I may be able to drop Arnold Haine.- All hands, hold the poison arrows. All the arrows on the battlefield were fired, but now he's out of control. "

The words lead to arrows.

A few days ago, all the poison arrows released to seal Arnold Hein were sealed by his sword.Raul ordered it in order not to let the opportunity of injury escape.

(Arnold Hein is 100 meters away. This is the wind, and there's no way I can hear you.... but I kind of have a bad feeling about it...)

Riesch had a strange chest trouble and looked through the monocular again.

And the next moment, he took a breath.

─!?

I think that blue eye looked straight at us.

After being horrified, I soon realized it wasn't my fault.Arnold Hein is definitely looking at us.

Guys, no...!

Riesch?

Arnold Hein knows where we are.Shooting an arrow doesn't hit me. "

Hearing Riesch's words, tension ran around.

Depending on Arnold Hein's movements, he is surrounded by enemy knights.Leechee almost took a breath and stared at the man in the lens.

Arnold Hein quietly narrows his eyes.

When I thought of it, I just smiled with my dark eyes.After that, slap your left chest with your thumb.

The heart is here.

He pointed it at Riesch to provoke him to eject it.

Whatever whimsical Arnold Hein was at that time, he didn't aggressively attack us, so he was able to leave the front.

Now he looks up at Arnold next to him and thinks blurrily.

If I had been ejecting this man's heart, what would have happened now?

Perhaps Riesch had never died in her fifth life and was celebrating her twenty-first birthday.

But I couldn't imagine that much.

(... I can't help thinking about the future I didn't visit.More than that, I wonder if the shadows Else and the others saw yesterday were all hunters.)

Riesch has a magical look and organizes her head.

(You can enter the room through the window, walk without footsteps, and turn off the signs.--I can't be "ordinary people", but those people are not normal)

If you look in the alley yesterday or Raul earlier, you can be most convinced that they were them.

(And if the killer is one of the hunters, the trap I set is meaningless.They'll see if they're set up, and Raul was aware of the fact.)

However, the fact that the ghost line in Riesch can't be erased is that the maid is hearing the windows close.

(I wonder if everyone will hear the rusty sound of the hinges or if the maid will see us.Yeah, but....)

The more you think about it, the more likely it is that it is not a ghost.Nevertheless, we can't stop thinking.

……

Unexpectedly, Arnold touched Leicher's left hand.

Your Highness?

Without responding, he traces the edge of the sapphire shining ring.

(Yesterday, you touched my ring.)

It doesn't seem to be the intention to tickle Riesch, but for what reason?

I don't hate it, but it doesn't settle down somehow.

Rieschett was distracted but remembered what Arnold said yesterday.

Is gold craftsmanship Coyol's technology?Despite such fine workmanship, it is well maintained. "

(Possibly His Highness Arnold)

At the same time, Arnold calls us by our name.

"Riesch"

"Yes"

He looked up at Arnold in disguise of his ordinary mind so that he wouldn't notice what he was thinking.

"It stopped raining."

"Ah, that's true."

The sky that can be seen through the window is clear, as if the heavy rain just now were a lie.The air is clearer than in the morning and the white sunlight is very dazzling.

"Are you on official business this afternoon?Or diplomacy with His Highness Curtis..... "

"No, there's somewhere I'd like to take you, if possible."

"Me?"

Arnold stood up and reached out to Riesch.

Can you get out?

Surprised by the unexpected suggestion, Riesch nodded and took the hand.



"Wow...."

Dressed in a light summer dress and wearing a sunshade white hat, Riesch cheered on a basket of drinks.

"Hey, don't run on the beach. Let's roll."

"I'm sorry, because...."

Arnold said that from behind, but his heart couldn't hold back.

"The sea...!!"

His eyes sparkled at the vast ocean plains before him.
