Andymion and Sir Ivan, who immediately greeted me, made me grateful and relieved.

They were the few who were in favour of me. Ellenia, escorted by Sir Ivan, was also one of the people. She was a little scary, but she’s good, but why, why did all the aristocrats in Elendale seem to be attending today? And why were there so many Paladins? Even though it was a holiday, shouldn’t they be hunting? They had always been so proud of their work.

“Oh, what is this? Sir Izek, what brings you to such a humble place?”

“And why did no one tell me you were coming here?”

 

“St. Agnes’ birthday is an important event, kid.”

It was more crowded than the horse riding meeting the other day. My plan to come quietly with my haughty husband and appeal to him how insignificant a human being I could be, disappeared with the wind.

 

Haa, my husband was a celebrity. He was only at a charity event, and so many people were chasing him. Well, he was the king’s nephew, a powerful Paladin, Omerta family’s descendant, and his appearance…

 

He had everything. The protagonist is in the spotlight, after all. I smiled with excitement as I looked back at the unlucky main character.

 

“Wow, the atmosphere is very lively. I think everyone is very faithful, to have so many people attend.”

 

“They’re just here for the food. It’s a  small group.”

 

I see. The North had small groups. Why wasn’t it surprising?

“I’m different. You know how sincere I am.”

 

“Andymion.”

 

“Yes?”

 

“I don’t remember giving you a vacation. Why did I come here to see your face?”

 

“T-That’s…”

 

Poor Andymion. How did you end up with this guy?

 

Izek was consistently harsh on his trainee, who had popped up in this event. I’d sensed this since last time, but I don’t think he liked crowded places that much. Who was the cause of this?

 

“Ruby.”

 

“What?”

 

“You look thinner somehow,” Ellenia, who let out a strange noise, stared at my brother.

 

Izek had a desolate look on his face.

 

“It’s only been a few days.”

 

“Is that so? Are you not going to come home at all?”

 

“I will come by.”
