150 – A Midsummer Night’s Dream – (complete)

After that, Milia continued to go back and forth from place to place in the capital. Whether she had written down a list of stores she hadn’t been able to visit because she was alone, or whether she had figured out the best route in advance, her escort was neat and unstoppable.

From high-end restaurants to clothing stores and jewelry stores. All of them looked like expensive shops that commoners would not even be able to afford, but for a golden spoon like Millia, it was a good look.

As soon as I opened the cute coin purse, platinum coins poured out. I could still see the store owner’s big smile.

“Aren’t you overdoing it?”

.

She asked anxiously, but Millia just tilted her head calmly.

“Since leaving her hometown until now. She’s been frugal for nearly a decade. Spending this much is just ridiculous.”

“You can come back next time.”

“Then you can use that much again next time.”

Milia dismissed her story with that, and she bought me a few things too. She was a little upset that, to be honest, she felt like her pillar boss or host.

As if she didn’t mind, or maybe she didn’t like the clumsily disguised suit I wore to the prom and still wear, she bought me a suit at a decent tailor shop.

“Look. Surely this is better?”

“Mmm.”

I twisted myself in front of the mirror. Compared to before, the design was sober and the color matched me well. Moreover, it seemed to be a little more comfortable because the size was right. Well, the old suit was too small for Fried to wear.

But this piece of cloth is five thousand dollars. The material is good, but it’s not a magic item, so isn’t it too expensive? Five thousand dollars was almost half of a month’s salary for the border guards. Milia will get less than me, so from her point of view, it was as if she had spent almost a month’s salary.

Milia pursed her lips as I made a subtle expression.

“Don’t you like it?”

“Uh, no. I think it’s definitely better. Thanks, Millia.”

To make her feel better, she nodded hastily. Only then did Millia smile proudly as if she was satisfied.

“You can dress like this the next time you go to High Linx. Won’t your father take good care of you if you do it neatly?”

“…… Next time? High Linx?”

“There is such a thing.”

Milia slaps me on the back.

She wasn’t particularly ill.

The long march that followed ended just after midnight. As the date changed, the crowds on the streets also noticeably quieted down and became relatively comfortable.

We were also getting tired, so we took a walk around the square in the capital city.

“…… That one.”

There are still vivid traces of the terror that took place during the National Foundation Day in the middle of the plaza. The half-destroyed podium had been moved to one side, but it seemed that the soot remaining in the center of the explosion had not been dealt with.

Milia stepped in front of him and smiled bitterly at her.

“This was the place.”

“Right. I was in the wagon right next to me, and it rolled almost three laps. I thought you were going to die.”

“Still, I’m glad you’re safe. Oswald and Sir Siegwald…….”

Milia stopped her words and gave a small nod. I followed her and bowed her head.

Oswald and Siegwald. I don’t know what kind of personality he had as a Guardian Knight and how strong he was, but it was a pity. If they had been alive, things wouldn’t have been so bleak.

“Milia, were you here too?”

“Right. I was caught in the explosion and broke my ankle, so I couldn’t fight properly. If it had not been for Sir Lautrec, he would probably have died as well as Sir Oswald.”

Seeing Milia’s dark expression brings back memories of her time.

She was so afraid at the time of her possession that she threw away her sword and ran away as soon as she encountered the Serpent’s Eye Slaine. That coward has now reached the point of sword-to-sword with an apostle, so I think that I myself have grown a lot.

Still, it was fortunate that Milia took care of the black she had dropped.

“Still, I must have managed to take care of my sword in that situation. My leg must have been hurt too.”

“…… Yes?”

“You have a sword. I lost it in the chaos, didn’t you find it?”

At my words, Millia hopped, swallowed her breath, and put her index fingers together in front of her chest.

“Why?”

“Oh, no. Yes. It was. It was the setting that I picked up the sword.”

“Settings?”

“There is such a thing.”

As she frowned at Milia, who was visibly flustered, she hastily pulled her scabbard from inside her dress.

“Go, you don’t need to thank me. Didn’t Sir Fried get the sword from Highlings for me?”

“… ….”

“Sir Fried?”

“Uh, no. Okay. That was the setting.”

I cleared my throat.

I knew that Millia treasured that sword, but I didn’t know that she treasured it so much that she would carry it on her body even on outings like this.

What would happen if I revealed to her that the sword was not mine, but a gift from Leonard Liantour? She decided not to say more because she thought it would only increase the misunderstanding.

“Milia.”

Instead, I told a different story.

“Perhaps from the next attack by the Church, a more dangerous ordeal than I’ve ever experienced will strike. It may be difficult to survive with mere luck.”

“Yes.”

“So… ….”

“… ….”

“…… Therefore.”

I hesitated for a moment.

It was because Milia was staring at me. Upright posture, firm face, resolute eyes, and tightly closed lips. She was a knight who was more prepared to fight than anyone else.

“… ….”

“Why?”

“No, I had something to say… ….”

Actually, I was going to take this opportunity to suggest that Miriago go back to Highlings for a while.

No matter how reliable she is, Act 4 is the future where Millia’s death is confirmed by Arwen. That’s why she wondered if she wouldn’t die if she moved away from the capital.

But the moment she saw Millia’s face, she was intuitively convinced that it would all be for nothing.

What kind of harsh words to say to a fellow engineer with such an expression on his face, that he quit his job.

Above all, for Milia, her title as her guardian knight is proof of her identity. To say that she is obsessed with her would mean denying all of her self.

I was well aware of how rude and inconsiderate that was.

In the end, I gave up talking.

Instead, he smiled bitterly and placed his chin on top of her head.

“…… M, Meat?!”

Milia suddenly made a cute noise and stepped back behind her, but her arm was longer than mine.

Maybe because I drank a little. Her face reddened and her lips began to quiver.

From noble mtl dot com

“What, what is it?”

“Just…… I meant let’s do well. Continue in the future.”

Milia opened her eyes. I ran my hand through her golden hair.

“Let’s make one promise instead.”

“…… What, what is it?”

He looked at me with an expectant look in his heart.

“Don’t die.”

“… ….”

“If you are about to die, put your life ahead of your mission. Absolutely run away If there is something that is beyond your power, don’t think about solving it yourself, ask for help around you. Whatever it is, you can leave it to me.”

Emphasizing her elongation, Milia loosened her mouth. Then he took the hand I had above my head and placed it on my chest.

A soft touch sweeps over her palm.

Feeling at the same time, her thumping heartbeat.

“…… What.”

I was the one who panicked this time.

She tried to back away hastily, but Milia took a step closer to me.

“Then Sir Fried, please make me one promise.”

Milia looked at me with more intense eyes than anyone else and said that.

“Lord Fried, don’t die. It’s an oath or something, don’t hold it alone. If you have any problems, feel free to consult with people around you. Whatever it is, you can leave it to me.”

“…… Her.”

“Will you promise me?”

In the end, it was like giving in exchange for words.

I smiled bitterly and nodded.

“Okay. I said yes.”

“Did we promise?”

After she nodded, Millia let go of my hand as if satisfied. The touch of her fingertips still lingered, her skin tingling. Her face also seemed to heat up.

Milia walked in front of me, and she turned her around slightly. Through the fluttering hem of her dress, her playful, pretty face caught her eye.

“…… Then, shall we go?”

“Yes.”

“Three days later, on the Sabbath… ….”

“Yes. Let’s go eat the cake we couldn’t eat again.”

At those words, Milia smiled brighter than anyone else.

“Lia, what is that expression?”

Seira Lian Tour leaned back in her chair and tilted her head to see Milia who just opened her door and came in.

Unlike her previous visit to the imperial palace as her father’s representative, she was a caterer for Seira’s ball. Because she had no other suitable accommodation, she was renting Milia’s room.

“Huh? What?”

Milia only tilted her head, but Seira put a playful smile on her face.

“No, her face is also red, and the corners of her mouth are twitching, just looking like a princess from a children’s book.”

“…… I?”

“Yes. You.”

It didn’t take long to come to that conclusion.

The expression was also a facial expression, but above all, the clothes were decisive. Milia was wearing a deep blue dress, one she didn’t wear very often, even when she was in the High Rings, and which she cherished as much as her life.

Besides, it was already well past midnight for her. At such a time, she dresses up beautifully and returns home with a happy expression on her face.

Seira wasn’t stupid enough to not even notice.

“Why don’t you tell the truth? What happened?”

“Oh, there was nothing… ….”

“Is there a story I heard?”

Saira said with a chuckle.

“According to what I hear, she is guarding her office while dozing off, saying that His Majesty the Emperor is waiting for Fried-kun.”

“… ….”

“What does it have to do with Fried? I don’t know~.”

When I said it slyly, Millia closed her mouth with an unfair expression.

Seira almost burst out laughing at her cute expression, but she barely held back.

When she was little, she wanted to make fun of her more because of her cute face, but she gave up because she felt that doing so would cause her to leave the room immediately.

She didn’t want to sleep outside shivering in the cold though.

“So, what happened?”

“…… Nothing much.”

“Did you make a child? Your father will like it.”

“It’s not like that, yet!”

“Yet?”

“Ugh.”

Seira giggled at her, and Millia clenched her fists as her trembled.

But she didn’t dare to run, she sighed and sat down on her bed.

“I just had a little leisure time.”

“It’s a date.”

“… ….”

Milia didn’t deny that at all.

Yes. That’s right. Seira put on a happy expression and turned her chair around to look at Milia. She

She is the younger sister whom I cherish more than anything in the world, even though we do not get along well. If she is happy like that, she has no reason to say no to Seira.

However.

“Ria.”

“Yes.”

“I would like to support my pretty and cute little sister, but in fact, I am still cheering for her.”

Having lost her luck like that, Seira placed her chin and her little feet on the thighs of Milia.

“Do you know who the opponent is?”

“…… Huh. Know.”

“It will be difficult.”

“… ….”

Milia kept her mouth shut, but then she shook her head.

“I know. Still, I can’t help it.”

“Can’t you give up?”

“I don’t know, something like that. But.”

Millia raised her head.

“I don’t know who I look like, but I am stubborn.”

“hahahaha.”

Seira couldn’t help but laugh, satisfied with her words.

It was a true theory.

“Ugh, my Ria. So cute It’s like a girl in love. No, are you a girl? Aren’t you too old to be a girl? Her breasts are so big.”

Saying that, Seira jumped into her Milia’s arms.

Buried in her soft breasts, Seira rubbed her face. Milia freaked out and tried to drop it, but she was useless.

“Oh no! I can reach you!”

“What~. Between us We even took a bath together.”

“Yeah, that was when I was young!”

Milia’s appeal was overshadowed, and Seira fell asleep.

Befitting her young body, even her biorhythm Seira was a child herself. He used to be drowsy even after midnight.

“…… Ha. Her sister is really…….”

Millia let out a deep sigh and laid her down next to her. She

She and she herself changed her clothes and watched the moon rise outside her window.

A full moon that resembles someone’s eyes.

“…… Because I know too well.”

Milia muttered that.

Finally, she went to sleep by Seira’s side, holding her prized sword in her arms.
