I Became the Fiance of a Crazy Heroine - I Became the Fiance of a Crazy Heroine chapter 147

Chapter 147

“… … ?”

“… … .”

Shion is perplexed but interested in the proposal.

Harnette felt that something was going wrong and fell into a sense of alienation.

“Are you a little surprised? I bet it is. It is not uncommon for a royal order to be given to the next generation. That’s why he said he thought a lot.”

Brandis takes a slow step and examines the two of them.

Unlike before, his eyes became clearer, and he seemed to be immersed in deep thought.

I would have been a bit embarrassed if even this offer had been rejected, but fortunately I wondered if I could give him some time to think.

“How do you think I would have agreed to this proposal?”

“Unfortunately, I do not dare to look into Your Majesty’s heart.”

Shion responded carefully and thoughtfully.

I really don’t know what I was thinking and what the decision was.

In fact, it was because Brandis was close to abandoning his dignity as a king because of himself and Hanette.

“… you called me human So I looked at you with a human heart. There were times when I was as bold as you.”

Brandis recalls the memories of the past, albeit vaguely, and shows a faint look.

I didn’t want to be treated like a princess and confined to the palace.

That’s why I developed my skills, and somehow I tried to get recognized and go to the battlefield.

In the end, he had to get permission from the previous king, and he was able to climb to a high level by cutting down countless beasts.

“At the same time, I was thinking about that. It’s not easy for me to get out of the palace. If so, shouldn’t there be at least one prosecutor to stand in for me?”

Shion just listens quietly, suppressed by tension.

The title of the golden swordsman was not obtained simply because he was a king.

Brandis was the strongest swordsman in the kingdom of Alain, and in terms of his achievements, he was incomparable to anyone else.

If she had pointed out the swordsman to replace her, she would have rated that skill highly.

“Your Majesty stands firmly upon this country, and who dares to take his place?”

Uter breaks the silence first and meets Brandis’ gaze.

It wasn’t that he was specifically degrading Shion or belittling the Marquis of Reggiard.

They just followed the customs because the king had to take precedence no matter what he did.

“Why would I want to entrust you to Zion Regard? Because they know that the force has reached the heights. However, Shion Reggieard has work to do, so I won’t be able to protect you. That’s why I’m sending Barchen Reggieard with you.”

Brandis understood the meaning and answered calmly.

He had already explained everything to Juter and Varchen, and they should have understood even the parts that were not said.

In order to send the direct royal family out of the palace, of course, they had to entrust it to a reliable knight.

Coincidentally, Shion and Barhen are also real brothers, so wouldn’t it be possible to be a little considerate of each other?

“… After you become Setinos Quasar, I want you to enlist the 3 princesses and their fiancé in the Lihynes Knights. Let me know if you need anything. I will give anything within my power.”

The Lihines Knights had the names of dukes and marquesses at stake, and even subdued strong demons.

However, it had no contact with the royal family, and it was a knighthood whose purpose was to annihilate the demons rather than escort key figures.

That’s why the direct royal family was not allowed to join, and it became difficult to even participate in battle.

In other words, he was trying to convince Shion Reggieard that all problems would be solved with the title of Setinos Quasar.

‘… Did I concede too much?’

Shion was worried, but on the contrary, he had doubts.

It was as if he was trying to turn himself into a Cetinos quasar at all costs.

Seeing that he was entrusting the 3 princesses, he must have had a separate plan.

“I will tell you a funny story. Setinos Quasar gave different reasons for recommending you. I told you my reason before, so I’ll move on. White said you risked your life for your fiancé and soldiers. Purple added to that and said that if it wasn’t for you, King Narak might have killed him.”

Brandis continued talking softly, recalling what had happened during the meeting.

Shion just quietly listens with her eyes down.

“Blue is said to have been taught by two people. It was said that emotions should not be restrained, but should follow the source. Finally, silver… You gave me a very concise answer. ha ha!”

Juter heard the laughter and noticed the change.

I thought it was a little subtle, different from what I usually hear.

What kind of emotion is there in that smile?

“I asked if he saw him coming to the palace. Officials said they had never seen it, so I asked them to think carefully about what it meant. Still, he said he didn’t know, so he said he had come to pass this agenda. And then I tell you to quickly agree… The bureaucrats were so flustered… hahahaha!”

Brandis threw her head back and laughed heartily.

Only then did Shion realize that his relationship with Brandis and Caden had changed.

If it was the original Brandis, he wouldn’t mention the silver phantom thief as much as possible.

“Now do you know what you did?”

“… I only had to fight alongside the Cetinos Quasar. I am just grateful that you look upon me favorably.”

“All of the Cetinos quasars moved for you. Not even for your fiancé. Considering their sincerity, I want them to obey the king’s order.”

Brandis puts aside his laughter and shows a serious look.

I had already been rejected once, so I wasn’t expecting much.

I was just trying to make a recommendation with the conditions changed.

If you treat me like this, it might move your heart a little.

“Your Majesty, could you give me some time to think?”

Brandis was convinced when he heard the answer.

Unlike back then, I couldn’t make a decision right away.

That meant that he was willing to accept this offer, and he was probably going to discuss it with Hannette as well.

“How much time can you give me?”

“If you give me a week, I think I can give you an answer.”

“… Enter the palace at the same time a week later. I’ll be waiting.”

“I will obey the king’s command.”

Shion bowed his head respectfully and slowly turned his back.

Hannette noticeably follows him and leaves the palace.

“Barchen Regard.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Are you ashamed to be under your brother? If you change your mind even now, I won’t stop you.”

Brandis had already heard a definite answer from Uter and Barhen and summoned Shion.

However, from Barchen’s point of view, it could have been a reluctant acceptance.

That’s why I tried to peek into his heart by asking him again.

“… Before becoming a member of the Royal Knights, I would have been shy and avoided my brother. But now I am not ashamed of it.”

“what is the reason.”

“Because my brother is stronger than me. As a prosecutor, you should not be bound by your age or lineage.”

Barchen did not want to show his pride and stubbornness in front of Zion any longer.

Having already seen Shion and Harnet, he gained enlightenment and joined the Royal Knights while learning swordsmanship.

In the end, she was even engaged to Juter and was able to establish a relationship with the royal family.

If he was greedy for more than this, wouldn’t it be a great disaster not only for himself but also for his family?

“I’m not trying to make you your brother’s subordinate. 3 Shouldn’t you protect the princess yourself?”

“Your Majesty is right. 3I can’t let the princess go alone.”

“Because I believe in you, I can send the 3 princesses. Will you understand me?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Brandis was relieved then, but couldn’t help but regret it.

He had to go to the battlefield himself, but he was going to send the 3 princesses and his fiancé instead.

When will I be able to hold the sword and achieve what I want?

‘Now I have to lay the cornerstone.’

As long as Zion Reggieard opens the way, he and Setinos Quasar will have to step in and put an end to it.

I could trust him because he was a knight who had defeated the 3 great demon kings and 4 great disasters.

That’s why I was trying to appoint it as Setinos Quasar and put it in the vanguard.

‘If I need a fiancé, shouldn’t I step back?’

Since the founding of the kingdom of Alain, only one Shion Regiard has defeated the 3 demon kings and 4 disasters.

Of course, Hannett Adelaira and Setinos Quasars would have helped, but I had no choice but to admit my skills just by leading the flow.

If she had to have a fiancé to exert her power, even if she made an oath, she would only follow her will.

‘The time will come when I must step out. I will wait for that time to come.’

* * *

The residence of the Duke of Adelaira, Zion’s room.

Shion was lying on the bed, contemplating the king’s proposal.

It’s already been three days, but I haven’t made a decision either way.

If you choose one, you’ll have to discard the rest.

‘The conditions are good, but the opponent is the king.’

Negotiation is established only when each other has the same status and conditions.

Although the king gave up many things now, he could have changed his words later.

Even if I went and protested at that time, wouldn’t I be criticized and punished close to retaliation?

‘Still, there is the Duke of Adelaira, isn’t that a bit much?’

If he made a pact between himself and Harnette, of course Robens and Freed would also be involved.

It was because they were still subordinates and daughters of each family.

If the king tried to break the oath, the two families would not stand still.

‘If you can’t keep your harness because you’re under orders… … .’

“Are you still thinking?”

“I have four days left, so I have to keep thinking about it.”

“You have nothing to lose, right? But why are you doing that?”

“Because I don’t know what will happen.”

“… Why do you keep worrying? Do you think the king will break his promise?”

“There will come a situation where you have no choice but to violate it.”

“So you think I might get hurt?”

“We have to fight against strong enemies. Because you can get hurt at any time… … .”

“Then shall we run away? Can’t we just live together in a place where no one knows?”

Shion was shaken by those words for a moment, but did not answer.

It was a method that neither he nor Hannett wanted.

Hannett herself must have known it well, but why did she say such a thing?

“… You know you can’t do that, right? You and I both came here because we had something in mind. Shouldn’t we see the end?”

“sister.”

Shion stretched out her left hand and grabbed Hanette’s shoulder.

Harnette flinched but was led as it was.

“What should I do? Can you tell me how?”

“Are you going to do as I say?”

“I’ll do as you say this time.”

“Have I decided what to say?”

“I’ll follow anyway. My sister is also involved, right?”

“Are you sure you won’t regret it?”

“… no.”

“Huh! What is that.”

Harnette burst into laughter and pressed her face toward Shion.

Then he puts his lips to his ear and whispers slowly.

“Let’s go all the way together, the two of us. You can get married after you’re done.”
