YM778.TV 116 105. Sweet.
"Thank you for saving our territory this time. Without His Highness, all the inhabitants would have died."
That\'s what I say. Keep your head down, Mr. Benton. With that, Mr. Belt bows his head, too.
"Please raise your head. We just happened to be together, and the territory was shattered, so it\'s not like we can bow our heads like that."
Alexia laughs so bitterly. Because it did tear down the territory. I\'m really sorry about that.
"No matter how worn out the territory is, if you have a people, you can rebuild it. It might be hard for a little while, but we\'ll figure it out."
"Yes. Okay. Because I\'ll talk to your father too so he can help me. However, this Baron Territory..."
"Yeah, I know. You won\'t be able to do it as Baron Mangus territory anymore. The inhabitants have become aware of the Baron\'s deeds. Even if your son succeeds you by temper, the inhabitants will not listen. If you\'re bad, you\'ll be rebellious."
Right. Instead of fulfilling his duties as a nobleman, Baron Mangus left the inhabitants and fled first. All the inhabitants know about it. Even if that family continued to rule, the inhabitants would rebel. If I\'m bad, there will be a revolt, like I was just saying.
"Just wouldn\'t you just help the ladies with their lives? Your son Bantes has been in the King\'s Capital for the past three years and he doesn\'t know it. Mrs. Rita is weak and not so involved in politics as to be good at all. Your daughter, Casey, told the Baron many times with me that she was under house arrest in Rita\'s room without being heard."
"... right. I can\'t decide on my own, but I\'ll tell your father about it. However, if you help me, I don\'t think I can live as a nobleman anymore, and I don\'t think I can stay in this territory."
In this case, the death penalty will not even be applied to the whole family, but the baron will be executed as soon as he finds it, and the rest of the family will forfeit the title, etc.?
Even if the family that became that civilian stayed in the territory, in the worst case scenario, they would be resented and killed. Now they can be left to do nothing by the inhabitants because they are nobles. You should get out of the realm as long as they feel that hard, too. I can\'t guarantee my life after that.
"I know. I too would like to help the ladies. I just need my life."
I say that again. I bow my head, Mr. Benton. This man said he was childhood friendly with the baron and his wife. I guess you want to help your wife out of that kind of edge. There seems to be some other reason, but that\'s none of our business.
"Well, there\'s nothing more I can do about the ladies. For the future, let\'s wait for Helen and the others to go to Viscount Kennus now and bring reinforcements. When reinforcements come and this territory is better, I\'ll go back to the king\'s capital and tell your father."
After that, we talked about the future and it was dissolved. The only thing left in the room that everyone went out and slept on their knees with Alexia and me was Ekla.... You\'ve been asleep this whole time.
"What\'s wrong, Ray? Didn\'t you go with everyone?
That\'s what Alexia tells me when I\'m watching Ekla.
"Oh, I just wanted to talk to Alexia."
That\'s what I\'m saying. I\'m gonna hug Ekla and move to the seat next to Alexia. Ekla won\'t wake up even if she hugs her. Sleeping with wings patterned. I don\'t have a choice, so I\'ll have you on my desk for a little while. A little stiff, but bear with me.
"Talk to me? Heh heh, what is it?
Alexia smiles as she looks at my face, but to my eyes she just seems to be forced to laugh.
"You haven\'t slept much since yesterday, have you? Don\'t try to hold me alone."
That\'s what I said. I hold Alexia\'s hand. When I got back from my Goblin address yesterday, I noticed the lights were on Alexia\'s room. It\'s only been about three hours since I left Baron\'s territory before I came back, so maybe that\'s all Alexia\'s slept with.
When I look at Alexia, she\'s laughing bitterly.
"I knew you were screwed by Ray. I\'m still trying my best to hide it with makeup. But Ray can\'t even talk about people, can he?
That\'s what you\'re gonna say. You\'re gonna tumble my nose, Alexia. Could he have found out about yesterday?
"I somehow know when Ray leaves because of the ring. Maybe Aerys noticed.... This has been happening for a long time, but don\'t force Ray to do it either. When I say this, I disqualify the princess, because I\'m more important about Ray than the people here."
That\'s what I\'m saying, Alexia, you\'re gonna pull the chair closer and lean over on me. It smells good from Alexia.
"I\'m important about Alexia, too. So I don\'t really want Alexia to be able to do it either."
I hold Alexia\'s shoulder, too. That alone makes Alexia smile happily. And keep your head on my shoulder.
"Hehe, how many of us am I?
Ugh, it\'s pretty troublesome when they say that. I don\'t really want to get ranked or anything.
"Just kidding. Because I know Ray cares about everyone. But sometimes you want me to look at one, don\'t you?
And keep it up. Alexia keeps her face close and lips together with mine. I hold Alexia, too, and enjoy our time together.
"Huh. Aeris would be pissed if she saw me like this. You can even give him Aeris later, okay? But now I\'m feeling better. We need to work harder for this territory too! You can\'t push Ray too far, can you?
Alexia leaves the room saying so, smiling lusciously.... Is that it? I should be worried about Alexia, but I was worried the other way around.
I look at Ekla with my head on.
"Cui ~"
and had his eyes covered with his forelegs. However, it would be adorable of you to be making it look a little bit more visible.... Why are you awake only at this time when you were asleep until just now?
With that in mind, I lift Ekla up and leave the room. Will I do my best to lighten Alexia\'s burden a little too?
