Episode 120 ends perfectly

It’s been a day since I’ve been enjoying my free time alone.

These days, Vettel and Lewis have always been hanging out together.

Well, it looks nice, but…… I’m not sure how they’re going to reach an agreement again with the Hennessy family.

‘Well, it’s none of my business anymore.’

Perhaps he would take Louis in as his wife and Princess Hennessy as his concubine.

Of course, it is uncertain whether the Duke of Hennessy will accept it.

Today, for the first time in a while, I had lunch with Bethel at the palace restaurant.

The reason it has been so long is because Vettel has been having lunch alone with Lewis more often than not. Just a few days ago, he was cold to Lewis…….

I really know people’s work, but I don’t know.

This time, another specialty dish from the kingdom was brought to the table, and that was tom yam goong. Why is there a dish that reminds me of my past life? ….

Of course, the name is very slightly different.

Flora said it was delicious and ate it well, and fortunately, unlike the boiled octopus, Cecilia and Mulia also enjoyed it.

‘Flora is definitely good at eating anything.’

After lunch, Cecilia and her maids went back to their rooms, and her envoys also went back to their rooms.

“Luke?”

Before Cecilia could move on, she called to me. Then Flora and Mulia also turned and looked at me.

“I have other business to attend to, so I would like to stay for a while, Your Majesty.”

“Then we should go back first.”

Cecilia led Flora and Mulia to her room.

Fortunately, Ponta was still sitting with Vettel and Lewis.

Now is the perfect opportunity to bring up the story!

I got up from the chair and approached Ponta.

“Count Huxley. “Can you talk to me for a moment?”

“Oh. “If you have anything to ask for, please tell me.”

Vettel, who happened to be nearby, willingly stepped forward to replace Ponta. In fact, she was very grateful just for those words, but she couldn’t ask Vettel for it.

How can you ask the king of a country to sign a real estate agency contract?

And, if possible, I hoped that this incident would not be known to others.

If others hear that I am planning to leave the empire, my position will be in trouble in many ways.

“I am truly sorry, but I will accept your heart, Your Majesty.”

“Hmm. Then Ponta. “Go visit with Director Nedville for a moment.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Ponta got up from her seat and bowed her head towards Bethel.

Ponta suggested we go to a good place to talk and guided me to the living room.

I followed behind him and briefly put my hand in the inside pocket of my jacket. The contract I received from the real estate agency yesterday was stuffed inside.

Soon we entered the reception room.

“Please sit here.”

“Yes. “Count.”

I sat down in the seat he recommended, and Ponta sat across from me.

“I’m surprised that Director Nedville would ask to talk to me first.”

“I have something I would like to ask you personally.”

As soon as I finished speaking, Fonta widened his eyes in surprise. Then he let out a faint groan and looked around at my face.

It was as if he was trying to read my intention from my facial expression.

“Hmm. “His Highness Bethel is also there, so I wonder why you really want to ask me.”

“If possible, I want no one but me and Count Huxley to know about this matter.”

“… ….”

Ponta narrowed her brows slightly, showing that she was lost in thought.

I waited calmly, observing his expression. Fortunately, it wasn’t long before he decided to listen to my request.

“I want you to do this for me.”

From my inside pocket of my jacket, I took out a note containing a real estate contract and a brief explanation.

The reason I even included a note was to prevent Ilayna from giving too much information.

“It’s a shame to do something that can be done with words…” ….”

“We can’t keep Count Huxley for too long.”

“It’s a matter of consideration.”

It was a reasonable excuse, and I’m glad it worked out well.

“And that means you don’t want it to be known to the outside world.”

“Yes.”

“It seems like you have some circumstances, so I won’t ask any more questions.”

Fortunately, Fonta was a person who could communicate well.

He opened the note, checked its contents, and then raised his head in this direction again.

“Is there any reason why you want to make a contract in the kingdom?”

He had an expression of pure curiosity.

If I were to summarize very briefly what I wrote in the note, it was as follows.

The reason I want to buy a mansion in the Kingdom of Sergel is to later use it as a villa, but I don’t want others to know about it if possible.

And the funds will be raised as soon as possible.

Other than that, there was not much other information written down.

“I came to the kingdom as an envoy and I really liked it.”

“Hmm. Is that so… ….”

He seemed not completely convinced.

But it was difficult to talk in more detail when Ilayna might be listening.

“First of all, you don’t have to do it right now. “We are just trying to make reservations.”

“… ….”

Ponta still narrowed his eyes and tilted his head.

If we refuse, we will be in trouble…….

The silence continued for a while, and as time went by, I started shaking with one foot out of nervousness.

“I won’t ask any further questions since you said there are circumstances that prevent me from telling you. “I will do whatever you want.”

Luckily, I got the answer I wanted!

“Thank you, Count Huxley.”

I greeted him in royal manners.

“I will definitely write you a letter when I return to the Empire later, Count.”

“Yes. “If you need help, please let me know anytime.”

I stood up first.

At this point, I felt like I had crossed the 7th ridge to escape the empire.

I haven’t even purchased the mansion yet…….

‘Still, Ponta will do whatever I want.’

Perhaps because I had that confidence, my steps on the way back to my room became lighter.

Over the next few days, we prepared to return to the Empire.

It was basic to pack all the luggage we had brought with us, and the royal palace’s carriage repairmen helped us check if there were any problems with the carriage and in any areas that needed repairs.

In addition, we took care of all the gifts that Vettel and Lewis had prepared for us. Then, my luggage was as full as when I left the empire.

Well, it has to be that way. It will take close to three weeks just to return to the Empire.

Meanwhile, Vettel frequently visited the outside of the royal palace, and for some reason it seemed like he continued to meet with the Duke of Hennessy and reach an agreement.

‘I hope we reach a gentle agreement.’

I cheered on the inside.

And we were also able to face the family of Count Hormeld, who must have lived in pain for the past 30 years because of the Marquis of Ranker, a nobleman of our empire.

Cecilia paid them generous compensation and apologized on behalf of the empire.

“Since Her Majesty Cecilia apologized in such a sincere manner, their hearts must have melted like snow.”

Vettel said with a friendly smile.

From noble mtl dot net

“I hope it goes as you said.”

On the other hand, Cecilia just had a calm expression.

After such a busy day, the day to leave for the Eckhart Empire arrived.

The employees followed my instructions and carefully checked whether preparations for departure were complete.

“We are ready, Secretary.”

I reported this to Cecilia.

“Now all we have to do is get on the carriage.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Then, Flora and Mulia, who were nearby, got bright colors on their faces as they said that they were finally returning home.

“Her Majesty Empress Cecilia.”

“Hmm. King Betel.”

Cecilia turned her body towards the main gate of the palace. With that as a signal, all the envoys and employees turned towards the royal palace.

Betel had everyone in the palace lined up in front of the main gate to see us off.

Of course, Princess Louise McKenna was not left out of this important event.

“I am very grateful that you came here in person to discuss trade with our kingdom and to resolve the historical grievances of the past. Thanks to you, the empire and kingdom can face a new future.”

Vettel spoke with utmost courtesy. Next, it was Cecilia’s turn to respond.

“I am also pleased to have developed an enterprising relationship with the King. Also, I was able to stay comfortably here thanks to the King’s generous hospitality. Next time you come to our empire, we will treat you with the highest courtesy.”

The two men shook hands.

“King Bethel. “I hope the Princess Hennessy issue is resolved well.”

“Yes. “I will try my best to deliver good news.”

Vettel smiled kindly.

“I will make sure to tell you about our marriage in the near future, Your Majesty.”

Lewis, who was standing next to Vettel, spoke in a tone full of joy.

“I look forward to hearing good news.”

Cecilia stepped aside slightly, and now it was my turn to say hello to Vettel.

Vettel looked at me blankly and then offered to shake my hand. First, I shook his hand the way he wanted.

“Director Nedville. Thanks to you, I was able to make a big decision. I really, truly feel grateful. “The next time you visit our kingdom, I will welcome you as a state guest.”

“I am also really grateful to Director Nedville. “If it weren’t for you, Captain, I and His Highness Bethel would still have an awkward relationship.”

Lewis, who had spoken up to that point, was in close contact with Vettel. Because of that, not only Cecilia and I, but also her maids and members of her delegation were able to laugh happily.

After saying hello, I got on the carriage.

“Let’s go.”

As soon as Cecilia’s instructions were given, her carriage began to move forward.

When I looked out the carriage window, I saw people in the royal palace waving their hands at the departing carriage.

“Your Majesty. “The royal palace people are waving their hands at us.”

“Then we should shake it too.”

When Cecilia put her hand out the window and waved it, Flora and Mulia followed suit.

And in the other carriages that saw this, she waved her hand to the people of the palace.

I was really satisfied with this trip to the kingdom.

Because this is a very nice place to live, a home to escape from the empire, and a trustworthy comrade.

‘Now all that’s left is to convince my family back home…….’

I made it all the way to the 7th ridge, but that was probably the most difficult.

When I go back to my hometown for summer vacation soon, I will have no choice but to look at the atmosphere and try to persuade them.

I leaned against the backrest in a comfortable position.

But it was overlooked at the time.

A truly unexpected obstacle will derail my plan.

* * *

Ileina, Nellie, and Lucia were pressed close to the bottom of the imperial carriage. This was possible because he borrowed the power of a magic tool that looked like a suction cup that helped him fix his body to objects.

“Everyone worked hard.”

Nelly and Ilayna responded simultaneously to the words of Luna’s leader, Lucia.

“No. “Thank you, leader, for your hard work.”

Lucia responded by nodding her head lightly.

“By the way, Ilaina. “I’ve been meaning to ask you for a few days now. Is that a necklace you’re wearing around your neck?”

Il Raina turned her head towards Nellie, who was asking her a question. Nellie was smiling playfully.

“Ah… …. “This is a necklace that Secretary Nedville gave me as a gift.”

Ileina took out her necklace hidden under her clothes and showed it to her. Then, not only Nelly but also Lucia let out exclamations.

“Oh my. The secretary is very kind. “Please give gifts to even you, who are like a shadow to me.”

“… ….”

Ilaina didn’t answer anything. But for some reason she felt heat rising in her own cheeks.

Lucia smiled kindly as she looked at her subordinate like that. Because Ilayna looked like a young, lovely girl in her mid-teens.

“Let’s continue to work hard on security.”

“Yes. “Captain.”

Il Reina hid her necklace under her clothes again. Even after that, she kept adjusting her necklace with her hands.

But instead of a smile, a serious expression appeared on her face.

Ilaina was very concerned about the conversation that Luke and Ponta had had alone a few days ago.

‘Why were you careful about what you said in front of me?’

Is she trying to do something so important that she has to hide it even from herself?

If so, is it related to the secretary going out alone?

“… ….”

Ileina thought that when she returned to the Empire, she would have to report to Her Majesty the Empress.

Although he was glad that Luke was treating him well, he must not forget his original role.

A tool used for the empire and a shadow whose identity must not be revealed without permission.

Because that is the fate of Luna’s members.
