Chapter 289. Is this a match! (3)
“Thank you. Ugh, I’m really ashamed to ask you guys like this.”
Lipana expressed her gratitude with a wry smile.
It was half true.
In fact, from their point of view, the order of their master must be the highest priority.
If you look closely, there might not be a reason why you would agree to Lyfana’s request.
However, contrary to her worries, the three of them readily understood her concerns.
“As for Arell-nim’s wedding talk, we also know the importance of it.”
“Of course I don’t have to help.”
Ashaya, the scion of an aristocratic family, of course knows what a serious problem Arel’s wedding is.
Seina and Dia also understood with common sense.
It’s not that the three of them didn’t have any remorse of their own.
Sometimes, it wasn’t that he didn’t think that Arel’s lack of interest in marriage talk might be because of their complacency.
In the end, it means that each one gets their feet numb.
“But what are we supposed to do?”
No matter how much it was Lipana’s request, there was a limit to what she could do because she was in a position to serve her lord in the end.
Even if it was Lyfana’s order, it was not easy to do something excessively rude.
“I won’t force you to do anything unreasonable.
All you have to do is catch Arel so he doesn’t run away. Doesn’t that kid usually avoid it?”
‘…I think that’s the most difficult.’ If you make a strange decision and hide, no one can easily find you.
It’s not like I’m using magic myself.
Your physical abilities should be normal too.
He hides strangely well.
On top of that, since the person himself is so assertive, a little lazy, and has a dissolute temperament, it is even more difficult for the three of them to keep him still.
“I beg you. If Arel says something, don’t worry, I’ll say it again.”
“For now… I will try. But Lady Lipana…
can I tell you something?”
“oh? Say yes.”
Asha asked cautiously, and Lipana readily agreed.
Since I made an unreasonable request, there is no reason not to listen.
“Even if we forcefully push, there will be a limit if it is a marriage that Arel-sama doesn’t want.”
At first, I was taken by the mood and agreed, but when I thought about it, in the end, it was enough to say that I did not like Arel again.
As Asha cautiously suggested the matter, Leafana let out a slightly pleasant laugh for some reason.
“Whoop whoop. It won’t happen.”
“yes?”
At the same time, the three were puzzled.
“Don’t worry about that. Could it be that the mother was trying to push ahead with a marriage that the child did not want?”
“No… I never meant that.”
“Don’t worry. But don’t worry, Arel won’t be able to refuse easily this time either.”
For some reason, there was a bit of confidence in Lipana’s tone.
“Whoops, I don’t think even Arell will be able to express his dissatisfaction easily. The child is also motivated. So, the three of you, secure Arell and take him.”
What are you so confident about?
It felt like Leafa had a place to believe in something in her own way.
But it’s not polite to ask about it openly.
In the end, the three of them only politely replied that they knew.
In any case, the three of them understood that it was necessary to proceed with Arel’s marriage discussion.
Are you trying to push for a confrontation, even if it’s a little too much this time?
I felt the will of many people desperately, so far from being angry, I was rather embarrassed and could only laugh with subtle laughter.
I can roughly guess what was going on.
On the one hand, I feel a little sorry.
I wondered if the three of them were put in a position where their feet would numb for no reason because of my usual behavior.
I also feel a bit of remorse at this time.
‘Actually, it’s not bad to properly consider this opportunity.’
Unless an opponent with an excessive problem comes out, should we proceed moderately well this time?
It’s not that I’m against marriage itself.
No, on the contrary, it is a grave position.
It doesn’t matter if you do or don’t, it feels like it doesn’t matter.
Of course, no one else knows about it.
“however? Is this the meeting place?”
Looking out of the carriage, I blinked as I realized that I had arrived at the meeting place.
I expected it when I used intermediate teleport, but here it is.
“Are we going to meet again in the royal castle?”
The place we have now arrived is one of the most well-kept gardens and a good view among the many attractions in Wangseong.
Recently, it is often used as a meeting place between high-ranking nobles.
No, there are rumors that it was just made into a place to meet and date.
Of course, the person who made this was my father.
The purpose felt so blatant that I admired it.
“By the way, who is your opponent this time?”
I think I didn’t even look at who the opponent was because I was bothered when I ran away.
As expected, Asha listened to me and gave a subtle smile.
“You didn’t check it either. Actually, the person I am dealing with this time is someone who Arel-nim knows well.”
“Acquaintance?”
As I was puzzled, Asha taught me that fact.
Do you know someone?
where did you meet the girl?
….Damn, I don’t know because there are too many corners to be stabbed.
However, for someone who simply knows, their reaction is strange.
What the hell do you know and hide?
“who is this?”
“He is a very active person in this confrontation. And he is someone who knows Arel well. That’s all I want you to know.”
What kind of opponent are you?
But one thing is certain.
There is something subtle about the three faces.
Is it different from before?
is there something too?
And as soon as I arrived at the place prepared for the meeting, I knew their intentions.
That’s why the atmosphere was subtle a while ago.
“…So did that happen?”
There, a woman with a very familiar face, perhaps arriving before me, was sitting gracefully with a more elaborate outfit than usual.
The dress she wore was also flashy, but not overly daring, perhaps conscious of the meeting.
“Oh my, is it quite late?”
It’s a beautiful voice and an elegant smile that normal men might just pass by when they hear it.
Don’t be fooled.
A trained Casanova, I do not pass.
I shook my head and called her name.
“so? What kind of joke is this, Pena?”
Pena? Why is the princess popping up here?
“Oh, you’re talking too much of a joke.”
To the end, I only came to see the good with Arel-nim for our future.”
smile gracefully and say
For some reason, that guy doesn’t seem to want to stop babbling.
To be honest, stop growing chicken.
“….is it? Did you think of this incident?”
“Is that so?”
Pena smiled brightly at what was fun and said this.
“This time, I decided to directly promote the marriage meeting between me and Arell. So, this time I came myself.”
Oddly, it emphasizes directness.
Yu W
“Oh, you must be shy.”
No, I’m tired of it, so I can’t speak?
However, no matter what kind of eyes I watch, Pena doesn’t show even an inch of movement as if she’s determined this time.
It means you did it right.
“Okay then. Where should we proceed with the wedding talk?”
“Hey, what are you trying to do on your own?”
I couldn’t stand it and threw a word out.
“Should I explain first?”
“He disappeared again!”
It was about Arel sneaking into the city early in the morning.
When I came to wake him up for today’s schedule, he found that there was no Arel in the bedroom, only a bedding with Arel’s image on it.
Sure enough, he ran away again!
The three of them have been busy since morning to find Arel, who has been hiding.
“He must have been hiding.”
Seina, who had already circled the castle, shrugged and said.
Upon hearing the report, Asha also made a complicated expression and drooped her shoulders.
By the way, she went around the training grounds and gardens outside the castle.
Similarly, Arel was not found.
“Your hiding skills are getting more and more complicated.”
As the years went by, they also reached a certain level as knights, so they were confident that they would be able to catch Arel when he was fooling around.
As time goes by, Arell’s hiding skills are also increasing.
Is it because he is a genius after all?
Asha tilted her head.
He didn’t run away with his physical abilities, but he ran away using a teleport magic device, so there was no answer.
“It looks like you went out somewhere in the city too.”
After looking around the outside of the castle, Dia quietly approached and said that she missed it as well.
“There is no doubt that there are traces of the teleport magic circle being activated.”
“By the way, they are installed all over the city, right? Doesn’t that make it impossible to pinpoint the location?”
“It is difficult. There are over 30 of them, including spares.”
“30….
Allel himself said he increased it to make it easier for him to inspect the city, but no matter how you look at it, it was obvious that he increased it to make it easier for him to go out to play.
Because it’s a yard like this, once he makes up his mind and escapes, the girls don’t dare to catch him.
“It is as expected from Lady Lipana.”
“I think mothers know their children best. As expected, you know Arel better than we do.”
“…No Dia? I don’t think it’s time to admire it purely. Thank you for not embarrassing me?”
“Iknow, right.”
Dia nodded several times as if admiring something, but she was not in the mood to agree.
“What?”
Asha asks.
Usually, he has his own intentions, so at the point of running away like this, he only pretends to find it properly, and he somehow glosses over the confrontation.
After all, no matter who the opponent was, he couldn’t protest against Arell.
However, this time, Lipana even asked for integration.
So it’s embarrassing to give up as usual.
If anything, I’d have to go all the way to the city or even free someone to find him.
“Why on earth is Arel-nim so refusing to talk about marriage?”
“Isn’t there a reason for the royal family?”
After all, Arel isn’t the only one who doesn’t like forced marriage talks.
Maybe they have something they don’t know about?
For now, as if trying to defend him, Seina insisted.
Dia, who had been thinking hard about something until now, threw out a word in a slightly lower voice.
“Maybe I don’t feel the need for it.”
“Necessary…sungyo?”
Is it necessary for marriage?
Asha asked again, not understanding what that meant.
It was an idea that even she, who came from aristocrats, could not understand.
No matter how lonely and blunt a man is, he usually wants a partner.
Besides, Arel doesn’t have that kind of personality?
Why don’t you feel the need?
“It’s not that Arell isn’t interested in women. Everyone should know that.”
“…Yes what. It is.”
Asha hesitated and agreed.
and shut up
Her silence has multiple meanings.
