Chapter 26's
Selena was very excited as she entered the Sven cafe.
"For now, he's fine."
Sven looked at Selena with absurd eyes while organizing the large amount of information that came today.
“So far, she has perfect grades. I want to watch him.”
"What are you talking about?"
“I'm talking about Laria. It is not easy to plan a scheme while hiding in the Duchy of Icard. ”
Others thought all this was a coincidence, but Selena knew it was Laria's trick. He knows the name of the Knight commander, Ludva.
“I have a good feeling about him. I really like it.”
Selena tried to prove her point by raising her voice.
“You have guided Duke Icard to the end of an indisputable situation.”
Listening to Selena's frantic chatter, Sven sat inside on the sofa, smiling happily. She stroked Neo, who came to her lap.
'As expected, the first time I saw him at the racetrack, I can't believe he's the one he's looking for.'
"He's the one we're looking for." Selena put her hand together and continued.
“He's completely different outside. Laria is good at planning and acting.”
Well, we just have to wait and see what he'll do when he grows up.” He said with his shining eyes.
"I'm sure he's planning to leave the Duchy of Icard, but I'll do my best to help him."
"Sure! He must be free. It was in vain for him to be in the duchy. ” Sven nodded slowly.
"That's great."
Laria mentioned the rough information about the Imperial Family. It seems that he will escape when Evan plans to connect with Elaine, the Imperial Family Empress.
'Maybe it's Duke Icard's plan.'
I'll know exactly when I see Laria.
"…Maybe…"
"Maybe?"
“I don't know if Duke Icard is planning to kill him. So, as her strength grew, she could be associated with Elaine again.”
"Gosh my god."
“If Laria was in heaven, no one would have a problem when she died without anyone knowing.”
“Yes God, did he take her with such intentions? What a piece of shit! No wonder he said he was dying, but not too surprised!”
"I didn't know he was a man-eater, but he was really outrageous."
"I guess that's why he ran away!"
Selena and Sven, who had no idea that Laria was originally time bound, quickly managed to understand Kalaudin's true intentions.
Selena said, unable to contain her excitement.
“Then, he doesn't have to be loyal to the Duchy of Icard!”
"Faithful to the Duchy?"
“I feel sorry for him since he got married early. I hope that Laria will have a hundred men surrounding her. I will teach him how to be an eye candy for men step by step. ”
“Laria is a married woman now. Don't forget.”
“At the same time he broke up with her, didn't he? Cheating is common when she gets married, but it will end if she stands out more.”
Sven completely ignored Selena's words and pointed at the map with a wooden stick.
“Listen, Selena. If Laria agrees with us, here are the plans for the future.”
"Yes." Yeah."
“While approaching Elaine's wedding, you need to help Laria escape. Of course, it would be right for him to go to Hanua, the new territory he had bought.”
"Yes." Yeah."
"Duke Icard will then declare that Laria is missing and will marry Evan to Princess Elaine."
"Hmm?"
Selena, listening to Sven, rolled her eyes and tilted her head.
"But what if he doesn't want to marry Elanie?"
"No way."
"What if Evan likes Laria?" He remembered the way he looked at Laria today and said, "The way he looked at her is not a joke."
“Then, this is a disaster.”
Sven just explained the situation.
“How indifferent Duke of Icard to Prince Evan with his love. Will he be able to take care of her? If he was caught by him and he could not escape, he would be killed in an instant. ”
"Sighs…"
“So, he should be very careful. If Prince Evan were like Duke Icard, he would never let go of the woman he likes.”
"Yes, he has to be careful."
“If he is careless about this, it will be very troublesome. He would never let her get away with it. So, don't be rash.”
Sven frowned and warned. The black cat sitting on his lap was yawning lazily.
“For example, you recommend other men to Laria can cause infidelity. Never do that.”
“Early education is an important company.” Grunts come out of Selena's mouth.
“Never, don't let Prince Evan have it in his heart, or all this will end up like bubble foam. Do you understand?"
Not knowing it was actually too late, Selena nodded with a determined look.
“Oh, come to think of it, I have a request from Laria. It's time he made some money.”.
"Huh? What'sthat?"
"He told me to find a man and bring him to him."
...***...
“Evan, why don't we sleep now? I'm getting sleepy."
That night, I purposely asked cheerfully.
Evan didn't even say anything crazy anymore. Of course, that doesn't mean anything.
Evan fiddles with the fairy tale book, deciding whether or not he should say something.
Gosh, I'm going to let him go because the young man must have been having a hard time lately.
“Do you want me to read you a fairy tale? Until we fall asleep.”
“That's for kids..”
“Do you not like it?”
“We are children.”
Evan should be frank, but his neck will be flushed when he does something he likes.
"Come here, I'll read it for you." I patted the place next to me and said curiously.
Evan sat down next to me and handed me the book. He then gently leaned his head on my shoulder.
'uh? I did say I would read a fairy tale to her, but I didn't expect this.'
However, he has been hit a lot lately, so I decided to let him go because I felt sorry for Evan. Ludva destroyed his mind, and his father, Duke Icard, did not even try to correct the facts. So I have to be nice…
I stroked Evan's hair on my shoulder and started reading. Adorable baby bear painted on the cover of a fairy tale book.
"Baby bears love to see the stars in the night sky."
Evan, who lent it to me, had a pleasant expression and listened to my voice.
"But one day, the star fell from the sky."
Actually, I only bought it because the illustration was good. I don't know the contents.
“That's when, 'Baby bears crossed mountains and fields filled with stars. He thought he had to climb the mountain to pluck the stars.'”
"So, he looked on in panic, with his eyes turned upside down."
'uh? What kind of fairy tale book is this?'
Isn't a baby bear too tenacious because it looks funny? It's a little different from the pretty picture on the cover.
"The bear baby reaches the sea and finally holds the star on his chest."
What, what are all these fairy tales? Let's think about the position of Bulgari, who lives well at sea!
Evan slowly expressed his appreciation.
“The story is good, right?”
"Huh?
“Eh..”
Now that I bought it, I can't say it's weird, and I cover up a fairy tale book nervously.
“Come sleep now.”
“Wait, Evan. Do we sleep like this?”
He hugged me a little and patted me on the back.
"You keep hugging me while you sleep."
That's because I wanted to see your wounds back then.
Isn't this bad?
"I've been mean to you, so I'll do what you like instead."
Well, it's kind of embarrassing to hug Evan, but…
"Don't worry— you won't have a baby if we don't hold hands."
“B-right?”
Evan spoke calmly. It feels a bit pushy.
“Actually, I made a mistake in my sleep, and I will be clear, but..”.
Although when I saw Evan's serious face, I thought, 'He's big, but he's still a kid anyway.
"I'll be careful, so trust me."
"Yes ..." I had no choice but to slowly nod.
Evan was a year younger than me, but he was much bigger than his friends, so he looked like he was fifteen to sixteen years old. My physique was much smaller than my peers, so I was covered in his arms.
Nevertheless, I felt I had to take care of her especially when she could not sleep without saying anything.
I sighed a little and opened the conversation first.
"Evans."
"Huh?"
“Do not care too much about what Ludva.” says
“I won't think about it.” He answered calmly.
“I've been told in advance that I shouldn't hang out with you, but I won't be affected by those words anymore.”
“No, that's not the point.”
That's not the point. I looked up in frustration and looked into her red eyes.
"I'm trying to say that you don't make everyone unhappy ..."
“Although... it is true, Laria.”.
"…Huh?"
“Didn't you feel it? Everyone in the duke's house misses him.”
I can't deny his comments like that.
Even the calm Lisa sometimes missed Matilda, so she sometimes made an expression that didn't know what to do. The Duke of Icard has also changed. There was nothing he could say to deny that fact ...
"As long as he dies, I have to embrace the darkness for the rest of my life."
“It wasn't your fault, you know? If you do not overcome the darkness, you will always be unhappy.”
"That's inevitable, Laria." Evan smiled weakly.
Well, I shouldn't have tried to resolve the trauma of a lifetime at once after having just arrived at the duke's house.
“Stay, Laria, when I see you..”.
He mumbled slowly.
"Families are there for each other."
“Horse race track is my first family outing. We looked like we were just an ordinary family back then. ”
I buried my face in Evan's arms without answering.
That day, it was somehow sad that Evan and I thought the exact same thing.
