Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With - Chapter 307



307. Ten Years Later (10)

「――――――」

The sound of a carriage rolling echoed steadily.

It was very comfortable as it didn’t shake at all thanks to the well-paved road.

“I see Bakal…!!”

I opened my eyes to the sound of the knights performing outside.

He scratched his messy head and yawned refreshingly.

“Are we here already…?”

After the uprising, the journey began.

I must have arrived before I knew it, having slept soundly all day.

The empire’s greatest friendly nation, and also a nation at war.

Baccalaureate.

When I opened the curtains, a carriage was parked on a familiar hill.

I know this place.

Because it’s the place I came to escort Christina 10 years ago.

We saved her and the diplomatic corps from the werewolves, and parted ways here.

And, we kissed too.

“… .”

A smile naturally appeared on my face as I thought about the white-haired princess I was seeing for the first time in a long time.

I looked out the window, rubbing my lips with my finger.

The border town of Bakal spread out beneath the blue sky.

And soon after, I finally arrived in Bern, the capital of Bacharach.

Bakaldo has also developed a lot over the past 10 years.

Through exchanges with empires, many cultures were exchanged and the level of architecture also improved significantly.

Thanks to that, the lofty royal palace spread out before my eyes.

It wasn’t on the level of the Imperial Palace, but it was grand and awe-inspiring enough.

We passed beautifully carved stone buildings and roads and reached the entrance to the castle.

As I went inside, a red carpet was spread out waiting for me.

――――――.

Numerous Bakal warriors lined up on both sides, accompanied by the magnificent sound of horns.

I got off at the gate and passed through them.

However, once I got off the carriage, it was difficult to move my feet.

Huge men, a head taller than me.

Because everyone was staring at me with lifeless, murderous eyes.

The imperial minister who was dispatched together, Damian, also felt this and often swallowed deeply.

“Damian, is the original atmosphere of Bakal this grim?”

“I, I don’t know… It’s my first time coming to Bakal.”

We stood side by side and leisurely walked down the red carpet.

During that suffocating inauguration ceremony, Damian whispered to me the reason he had guessed.

“Perhaps it is because His Majesty the King has only visited once every six months since getting married.”

“I couldn’t help it. My job was to be the protector of the empire.”

It is impossible for someone who protects the empire to leave his post.

I had no choice because my wives strongly opposed me.

Instead, Tina came to the empire once in the summer and once in the winter, and I spent about a month with her.

From noble mtl dot come

The other wives were very dissatisfied with the fact that they had monopolized their time for a month.

However, everyone decided to understand since I only went to Bakal once every six months.

However, such excuses would not be accepted by the men who served the princess in front of her.

Since it has come to this, it would be better to somehow score points on this visit.

“Welcome, Your Highness the Veil. His Majesty the King and Her Royal Highness Christina await you.”

“I can’t tell you how happy I am that you have treated me so warmly.”

I greeted Bakal’s Prime Minister with an awkward smile.

The gray-haired old man took me into the palace hall in silence.

―――――.

On the ceiling is a huge painting commemorating the countries invaded by Bakal in the distant past.

Below him sit a number of Bakal’s vassals and heroes.

“Your Majesty, His Highness the Prince of Wales Mikhail has arrived!!”

At the prime minister’s loud shout, King Darhan of Bakal raised his head.

Having just entered his sixties, he still exuded a powerful aura, befitting the king of war.

“Welcome, Veil son-in-law. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.”

“Your Majesty the King!”

I took a step ahead of Damian and bowed my head.

After politely greeting, the moment he raises his face.

Christina also caught my eye in a sensual one-piece dress that clung to her body.

She was standing right next to the King and waved happily at me.

“Yes, I should have visited you more often, I’m just sorry.”

If I had to describe the King’s impression in one word, it would be that he looked like a warrior from the North.

Even though he’s in his 60s, he has dark brown hair and a beard without a single gray hair.

Blue eyes sparkling from under thick eyebrows.

As expected of a man who had conquered a kingdom in this rugged mountain range, he was extremely cold.

“I hope you have a comfortable stay during your visit. I think you said a week?”

“Yes, but I plan to use this opportunity to stay more often and longer in the future.”

The king looked satisfied when I said that I would see him more often.

but.

“It hasn’t even been half a year yet, and you’re here so early. I guess the other wives have a lot of back pain?”

The reaction of his eldest son, Urus, was extremely cold.

Maybe it was because he was the man who wanted a political marriage with Leah, but he didn’t look at me very well.

And to make matters worse, he even took his own sister, Leah.

I felt like applying for sparring right away.

“Haha… No. Now that my life has stabilized, I’ll have the time to meet my wife more often.”

I answered in a cheerful voice.

Then Tina also punched his side with her fist as if reprimanding him.

“Why are you being so embarrassing, really!”

“Yes, I appreciate you saying that. It must have been hard to come such a long way, but I hope you and Tina have a good time.”

Fortunately, the King welcomed my visit without any problems.

Afterwards, she allowed him to go to her villa to spend time with Tina.

“Thank you, Your Majesty…!!”

The king’s magnanimous attitude made his subjects silently accept the situation.

but.

Some still didn’t look too happy.

Because I am not of imperial blood.

Perhaps because of the rumor that he grew up in an orphanage, he seemed to think that it was a very light marriage for the sake of reconciliation between the two countries.

“… .”

I maintained a humble expression under those harsh gazes.

And then, the moment I was about to leave the suffocating palace.

―――――.

Christina came down leisurely from the throne.

Then she linked arms with me and smiled sensually.

“Shall we go together?”

Her crossed arms instantly melted the gazes of the murderous vassals.

Then I looked at her for a moment with lifeless black eyes… .

Soon, he regained his sly smile and hugged Tina.

“Yeah, thanks.”

Is it because of that warm appearance?

The gods seemed to acknowledge my existence a little and stopped giving me their murderous looks.

Thanks to that, I was able to head to the annex with Tina with a much lighter heart.

“Oh, you moved the palace…?”

“Yeah. It’s a newly built place.”

The annex was particularly beautiful among the residences in the palace.

From the beautiful indoor garden to the spacious living room and veranda overlooking the water.

The view was very nice, like the office of His Majesty the Emperor of the Heavenly Palace.

“Thank you for earlier. Thanks to you, the person who left looked better.”

“Because you don’t come often. When I told you I was coming, there were more than a few warriors who grabbed spears and said they were going fox hunting.”

Christina said alone, crossing her arms.

She is wearing a one-piece dress that fully reveals her sensuous body like an hourglass.

The beige thin material wrapped around her wide hips and tightened them.

I said, wrapping my arms around the sunken line.

“Sorry, the road conditions are better now. I’ll come and go more often.”

“Huh, you’re not making excuses to get some rest without your wives knowing?”

The white-haired princess pinched my soft cheek.

And then, she pulled at it like cheese and smiled proudly like a queen.

“How should I discipline this fox? It left its nest and now it has the audacity to come back.”

“Big… I’ll be coming every other month from now on. By the way, is our Beck at home now?”

I hugged Christina from behind and tried to change the subject.

Then, reluctantly, the wife pointed to a room in the corner.

“No, it’s in the academy dormitory.”

Beck.

The son born between me and her is now 10 years old.

He is the same age as Ian, Helena, and Lily, but he was born in December, making him the youngest of the group to have a birthday.

“Really? Why don’t you just go home?”

“The kid is so timid. I thought maybe if he shared a room with his friends, he would become closer to him.”

It is timid.

Actually, it’s a story that has nothing to do with my children.

Ian is also a quiet person, but he is always full of energy and works out with his friends.

Helena usually lives quietly with a book in her hand, but she is very active when she speaks.

Not to mention Lili and Leon.

Mari and Mika are still young, but I’ve seen them playing with girls their age a lot.

The rest of the children have just started kindergarten, so it’s hard to figure out what type they are.

So, among the children, the only one who can be described as ‘timid’ is Beck.

“Isn’t that because you like reading books?”

“I don’t think so. My grades in school aren’t that good either. Who do you take after-”

Christina glanced at me and said.

Well, if you look like her, there’s no way you can’t study.

She was the central figure leading Bakal’s main strategies and commands.

“Ahem… My grades weren’t bad when I was a cadet either… ? I guess it’s because I’m a practical person…”

As I spoke with an awkward expression, Christina elegantly raised one hand.

And then, he said, gently grabbing my chin.

“Go and play with him tomorrow. Take him outside or something to give him courage.”

The princess’s blue eyes stared at me.

Even as time passed, her eyes and face were still beautiful.

No, after becoming a mother, she became even more feminine and alluring.

“He’s so quiet on campus. He doesn’t get along well with the kids either.”

“But they’re royalty. Then, wouldn’t everyone approach them first to become close with them?”

All the children I raised had very friendly friends around them.

So I couldn’t help but make friends… .

“There are a lot of children of royalty at the Academy besides me. I feel like the kids whose mothers and fathers are both royalty are being left out.”

It was because of me.

No matter how much of an imperial envoy he is, to Bakal he is just a commoner from an orphanage.

Even though he was a Marquis, he may have been taken lightly because he didn’t visit the Grandmaster often.

“Okay, I’ll try to explain it to you.”

I left the annex terrace with a solemn look in my eyes.

And then, I silently looked down at the scenery of Bern, the capital of Bacharach.

The Royal Academy of Bacall, located close to the Royal Palace.

A small dormitory is visible around the old, large building.

I made up my mind thinking of my son who would be there.

Since it’s been a while since we last met, I’m going to play with Beck properly.

“Then, let’s rest today and go out tomorrow.”

I took a deep breath and tried to head back into the living room.

But, I couldn’t help but stop walking.

Because I noticed Christina standing at the border of the terrace and the living room.

“Rest? What do you mean, Mikhail?”

She was pulling the curtains that showed her silhouette, covering her body.

But, I knew instinctively.

Her body reflected through the curtain was naked.

“The fox returned to the den late, so shouldn’t he take responsibility?”

Christina held the curtain with one hand and pulled me towards her with the other.

I was instantly drawn into the curves of her voluptuous and breathtaking breasts.

A feast of strange odors and hot breath.

“You just made me wait.”

The princesses and Christina were both very strong, unlike ordinary women.

She wrapped both arms around the nape of my neck and kissed me with her eyes elegantly half-closed.

“Whoa… .”

Her hands, which usually only held the conducting textbook, dug into the inside of my white shirt.

And then, the moment when he violently rips off the shirt.

I shared body heat with her while lying on the sofa.

Pure white and smooth skin.

Her plump yet soft thighs wrapped around my legs.

So, the first night in Bakal lasted a very long time.

「―――――」

next day.

I opened my eyes and barely managed to get up from the voluptuous chest of Christina whom I had not seen in a long time.

After that, we shared an unstoppable love.

It was just past noon before I could finally make my way to the Royal Academy.
