Regardless of my personal concerns, for the next few days I acted as I had discussed with Klaus.
The pattern was always similar.
Klaus and Lariette talk in front of the training ground before Rudeat comes.
Rudyatt stops as he enters the training ground.
Rudyard looks blankly at the two people talking happily.
And I hid behind the pillar and watched as Rudyard’s complexion changed into a very colorful one.
There’s someone behind the pillar, Rudeat!
Today again, His Royal Highness Prince Rudiot lost his composure.
Rudyard rushed to the bathroom and washed his face, but his condition didn’t seem to have improved much, with only water on his face.
Jealousy is such a scary emotion! Rudeat stumbled and headed towards the entrance to the training ground. Lariette, who had left Klaus just in time, opened her eyes wide as she tried to say hello to Rudy Ert.
“Your Highness, are you not feeling well today? You don’t look good.”
“No, no. It’s okay, Lariette.”
“……?”
Even if you say it’s okay with an expression that says it’s not okay at all, it’s not persuasive.
Lariette also had the same expression. Unfortunately, Rudyette didn’t see Lariette’s expression as he was only looking at her ground.
“…I guess you talked about something with your brother.”
“Ah, yes. We’ve been running into each other often these days.”
“Fortress… Um, I see. Fortress….”
Rudyard, you asked Klaus to investigate Fortress Lariat.
“……Did you enjoy the story?”
“Huh? Oh, yes. Because you’re a cheerful person.”
“Joyful… I see. It’s fun, brother…”
Normally, the two would have headed beyond the training ground, but today Rudeat was restless.
Then, he raised his head, bit his lip, sighed, and spoke in a barely hushed voice.
“Hey, Lariette. If you don’t mind, come with me as my partner for the flower festival….”
What, flower festival? The name alone feels like a romance flag?
But this time the lariat was the problem.
“Huh? What did you say, Your Highness?”
Lariat! What should I do if I lose my mind at a time like this? I said it was a flower festival, flower festival!
Why doesn’t telepathy work in times like this?
Lariette still had a puzzled expression. Rudiott’s shoulders slowly shrank as his eyes met Lariette’s.
‘Spread your shoulders, Rudyard! You are a prince! ‘Ask for a date with a lot of force!’
“No, Lariette. You have to train, so please go in.”
you idiot!
“yes…….”
No, why are you just going in?
Flower festival partner? What did he say next?
you idiot! If you have the courage, ask for a date until the end!
“No, those idiots are real!”
A hand was placed on my shoulder as I jumped as I watched the two people walking away.
“Young lady.”
“……Ah, Your Highness.”
“calm down.”
Well, seeing Klaus’ soft smile made me feel like my anger was melting away.
I instantly warmed up and headed to his study with Klaus.
“Have you calmed down now?”
Klaus asked as he entered the study.
yes. When I saw your face, the world immediately became more beautiful.
“yes.”
Since I am an educated woman, I decided to speak my true feelings in a more refined way.
Klaus sat down on the sofa and unbuttoned a couple of buttons on his shirt. A little bit of skin was visible through the open shirt.
No, no! I’m a modern, cultured woman who doesn’t pay attention to things like this!
“I think we were successful in making His Highness Rudeat jealous.”
Let’s start with the report, let’s start with the report! My eyes kept returning to the outside of the window.
“His Majesty Rudyard’s complexion was very messed up today. He even gritted his teeth and washed his face.”
“So it took longer than usual.”
“Yes. But even after washing my face, my face turned red and blue and it couldn’t be controlled. And they even asked me what I talked about with Your Majesty?”
Absolutely 100%! One hundred percent!
I was confident that everything was going well. But Klaus tilted his head.
“so?”
“yes?”
“So let’s say Rudyard is jealous. But how long does this have to go on?”
“Uh… until His Highness Rudyard explodes with jealousy?”
“So, when is that?”
Klaus’ question left me speechless.
Rudyard is clearly jealous.
But I don’t know if he realizes that what he is doing is jealousy.
How long will it take before I admit that jealousy is love and confess my love to Lariette?
far! I thought it was too simple! If this is the case, won’t Rudiott just end up digging?
“Young lady, you can’t keep increasing your debt to me forever, can you?”
And yes! All of these plans are being accomplished with Klaus’ favor!
The tension grew as Klaus smiled softly.
If Klaus changes his mind, he can investigate Lariette in earnest at any time and end the love between Lariette and Rudiate!
‘That’s not enough!’
I desperately tried my best to make Lariette’s love affair come true.
What is lacking in this situation?
‘okay! ‘I don’t have enough catalyst to make me explode with jealousy and admit my feelings!’
I urgently spoke to Klaus.
“Your Majesty, it’s a catalyst, a catalyst!”
“Catalyst?”
“Yes. The entire situation has been prepared now. However, now His Majesty Rudyard needs one final chance to change the situation! Once the opportunity arises, His Highness Rudyard will take action on his own, so there will no longer be a need to carry out a strategy like a big jealousy explosion. ”
“Seeing as you say that, it seems like the timing was set, right?”
no. I couldn’t decide on the trigger because it just occurred to me.
I couldn’t show Klaus my violently shaking pupils. I tried to look out the window.
hmm. The sky is so pretty… … .
‘Oh, now that I think about it, didn’t Rudiot say something like that?’
“I want to ask you something, Your Highness.”
“Speak comfortably.”
“Do I need to get a partner to attend this flower festival?”
Klaus’ eyes widened at my question. That eye smile was the answer.
Aren’t festival and prom partners a very traditional and historical cliché?
As expected, Rudeat had clearly been trying to ask Lariette to be his partner for the flower festival a while ago.
I guess he’s just putting off asking because he’s still denying his feelings!
But what if you feel like someone else will take that partner position?
Can you be that calm even then, Rudeat?
Klaus smiled, leaning on his chair in the study.
A flower festival. The next operation proposed by Elena Seves was also a very absurd and dramatic operation.
But the most surprising thing was that this time, he approved of her plan.
“……Lady Elena Seves.”
Klaus remembered her light blonde hair.
Her light blue eyes were sparkling and she was saying something that made you wonder if she was sincere, but for some reason, looking at her confident attitude, you felt like you could keep pace.
“I’ve become a lot weaker too.”
Klaus laughed bitterly. But the bitter taste wasn’t bad.
His eyes were fixed on the golden relic.
At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with this golden, shiny object.
However, when Klaus first opened his eyes, the holy object was transparent and shining brightly.
As the world became more and more messed up, the holy objects hardened into gold.
As he watched the changing holy relics, Klaus realized the danger of the world.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not prevent the changes in the holy objects and the chaos in the world.
However, after going back in time and the appearance of Elena Sebes, the holy relic stopped changing.
Is there something to do with the stopping of the demons’ offensive and maintaining peace in the world with Elena’s appearance?
Klaus was curious about the answer to that question.
“It might be temporary, but it might be worth watching.”
To protect this world, Klaus made a mischievous proposal to Elena.
‘I will follow whatever your plan is.’
‘Thank you… … .’
‘There is a condition instead.’
‘Conditions?’
‘Be on my side.’
Klaus vividly remembered the look on Elena’s face when she heard that story.
I puffed out my cheeks as if I heard something I didn’t hear.
‘I don’t know what you mean specifically by asking to be on His Highness’s side.’
‘I’m asking you to help me prevent this world from being destroyed.’
‘and. ‘I didn’t know you’d hear me speak like this.’
‘So are you going to cooperate or not? Don’t forget that my choices depend on it too.’
‘This is an unfair transaction.’
Elena’s grunting voice was still vivid in my ears.
After babbling a few times, she nodded.
‘great. Instead, you are helping me.’
Klaus, who was smoothing out the transparent part that had not yet turned gold while remembering Elena’s answer, laughed again.
“I wonder what will happen to Rudyard.”
I wondered whether my younger brother, who runs only looking ahead, would be able to realize emotions thanks to her plan.
It was truly mischievous. Because saving a collapsing world and helping Rudyard’s love life are two different things.
Even if she said she wouldn’t cooperate, Klaus probably would have helped Elena.
But being able to seek help from Elena in this way brought pure joy to Klaus’ heart.
Klaus himself wasn’t sure if that joy was just relief at being able to save the world, or if it was also mixed with anticipation of a relationship with Elena.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
He smiled and murmured.
And just in time, a knock was heard.
“come in.”
With good timing, it was Rudiot who found Klaus.
“…Excuse me, brother.”
Klaus leaned back in his chair with an interested look on his face. It was my first time seeing my younger brother look so confused.
Rudyard entered Klaus’ study with a paler face than usual.
He glanced at the spot where his always gigantic brother was sitting.
I had a vision of brightly shining blonde hair filling my vision. It felt like something heavy was sitting on her chest.
Rudyard bit his lip and called out to Klaus.
“older brother.”
“Rudeot, what’s going on?”
Rudyard’s cheeks trembled as he looked at Klaus’ leisurely smile.
What’s going on?
‘I know.’
Rudyard himself didn’t know what he was thinking these days.
