Chapter 61

It was a question of whether he was criticizing or talking to himself.

 

It was a little awkward, but I kept talking.

 

“By the way, what were you talking about with your colleagues?”

 

“The Frost Forest’s Subjugation plan.”

 

“…….”

 

“It was  a joke, relax your neck. If he had the decency, he’d stay quiet for a while.”

 

Where in the world would you find a knight asking for shame from a dragon?

 

You said a joke that didn’t go well with me. I thought my heart was about to drop!

 

“You must be very worried about your friends.”

 

“Oh, no.”

 

“Why not? You looked like you had a lot of fun. Close your eyes.”

 

I didn’t know what to say because it was true that I had fun.

 

The water poured into my head with the water from scooped out snow.

 

Whoo.

 

“I came to pick you up, and you cried because you didn’t want to leave your friends.”

 

“It’s not really like that, I was just afraid I’d get in trouble..”

 

“Is that what you’re afraid of, that too, after meeting Popori?”

 

At first glance, it sounded like a joke. The touch on my head felt unfamiliar to me. Almost like he was teasing… Who the hell was this man?

 

“I managed to find you, but I got a mushroom on the face.”

 

“Come on, I’m sorry….”

 

“Well, you’re safe, and that’s all I need to know. I think I’m done with my hair.”

 

As expected, he never forgot when I threw the mushroom.

 

Remembering the days of self-indulgence, I turned and hung on to the bathtub railing.

 

In the thick steam, Izek was seen squeezing a thick sponge and wiping the sweat off his forehead with his other hand.

 

“I need to open the window.”

 

“I…….”

 

“Stay where you are.”

 

Whoosh.

 

Soon, the cool air came in.

 

Through the half-open window, I could see the night sky shining brightly.

 

Wow, that’s awesome.

 

“If I take a bath here every day, I’ll feel like a real princess.”

 

“You are a princess.”

 

Well, I was the daughter of the Pope and the princess of Romagna. But, that was not what I meant.

 

“But I’ve never seen such a beautiful bathroom in Romagna.”

 

“The splendour cannot be matched with the Holy Father’s.”

 

What? Was the Pope’s bathtub some sort of a sacred constellation?

 

I didn’t know because I’d never been in my father’s personal bathroom.

 

“It’s not like it’s just pretty. It’s really nice here.”

 

“If you like it, come here as you please.”

 

“Can I?”

 

“What’s the big deal?”

 

“Really?”

 

“Why ask that everytime…”
