294 – Abduction 6
What? What to do really what?
What should I do? I do not know. How do you really do it!
Even that favorite swordsmanship training is out of hand today.
I just sat down and grunted while holding his head.
“Nell. I think I gained some new insight this time. I’d like to ask for some sparring tomorrow.”
“If you have time tomorrow, would you like to learn more about manor management with me?”
Ian and Leto. The two men approached with a time difference as if they were salty.
At the same time, they even sent a doctor who wanted to make an appointment tomorrow.
I can’t possibly put off one side, I have to choose one.
No matter how Nell was, it was the first time something like this happened, so I didn’t know what to do.
Until now, however, it seems that the two of them have been well coordinated.
The two men were now quietly approaching to make a choice.
‘Why do you keep doing this?! Shouldn’t you consider my position!’
I remember hearing these words at a party where the sons of nobles and young ladies once gathered.
I don’t know if it’s good to be stuck next to two great men right now.
It will be very embarrassing sooner or later when two men insist on making a choice.
So, even now, I want you to push one away and choose the other.
At the time, I thought it was just the words of young ladies who were blinded by jealousy.
When I told him about it, Elgar even said, ‘It’s nonsense!’
There is no reason to give up. You just have to have both, so what are you thinking about?
‘I thought so at first… it wasn’t….’
The saying that you just need to have both was only applicable to Elgar.
She is the heir to the grand duchy. She is the woman who will later become the only three Grand Dukes in the Empire.
Of course, her authority could be said to be second only to the emperor.
And accordingly, you can have several companions if you wish.
But not Nell. Her family is just beginning to recover.
Even before that, Nell’s family was nothing more than a baron at best.
A single baron family has multiple partners? It is nonsense.
One of them is an extremely talented person who is almost certain to be the next Empire’s top 10.
The other is a member of the next group of retainers trusted by the next Grand Duke Littorio.
Both of them are still there, but sooner or later they will receive the attention of the central political world.
On the other hand, Nell herself is only a daughter of her baronial family.
Although he is a title noble, he is nonetheless a baron. More than that is impossible.
She had experience in the Imperial Knights and received attention from the emperor, but that’s all.
You have to do very well to become a viscount.
‘There is no precedent for a baron or a viscount family head to have multiple companions!’
Even if you can’t do it, it’s possible to become a count family, and you have to become an imperial count.
Having multiple companions in earnest only happens in marquis families.
In the end, Elga’s support was her mistake from her own standards.
However, Nell had no intention of commenting on that part.
She said that what Elgar wanted to say was her encouragement that in the end she would not give up.
If you both have feelings for each other, shouldn’t you just hold on to them both?
It’s just unprecedented! I’m not even doing it
It seemed like he was saying that it was too bad that he was scared and missed it for nothing.
‘By the way… Come to think of it, Princess Elgar is the opposite of me.’
Even though he is the next Grand Duke of Littorio, he doesn’t have multiple companions.
On the contrary, it was Elgar’s determination to become one of someone’s many companions.
At that fact, everyone in the world was shocked beyond surprise.
There was a lot of talk about why I made that decision because I was regretful.
At least she was Elgar, so she was at the level of her words.
If she had done that in later writers, it was clear that she would have gotten more gossip.
But Elgar and the Grand Duchess Littorio were not shaken by those words.
In addition, John Nassen’s two siblings, who returned shortly after, eliminated those sounds at once.
Think about it. Crossing over to another continent far away, which takes several months, barefoot.
When I came back, I was carrying two huge chunks of steel the size of a house on my back.
There is no reason to look at the previous events. That’s it.
Forging blood ties with such a family. If you can do it, you don’t have to be a crony.
‘Princess Elgar will be relieved. It’s because Kyle-sama is the son of a grand duke who can take anyone and how much he wants.’
The John Nassen family is obviously a baron like himself.
However, comparison itself is impossible. The truth is that you have to look beyond that.
According to the rumors I heard, there were several discussions about winning the title.
“Haaa….”
If you had been a little more amazing, this wouldn’t have happened.
I don’t look at anyone’s notice, and I proudly look at both of them….
‘Huh? Oh no! Then! How to do both! You can’t do that!’
There’s Kyle with as many as four women next to him.
And because Ian and Leto were stuck next to him at the same time.
It seems that I was thinking that way without even realizing it.
That shouldn’t be the case. Yeah, honestly that doesn’t make much sense.
The love of a couple is originally given to only one person and received from only one person.
Isn’t that why there are often punishments for men and women who cheat on the people of the empire!
Dori Dori!-
Nell shakes his head vigorously and chases away evil thoughts.
And I quickly replaced it with the thought that it was right to choose one of the two.
“… Nell? What are you doing?”
At this time, Tisha stopped by the academy to prepare for the next school year and found Nell.
Nell, who checked her, said Alas! She went right over to her as if she was happy to do so.
Suddenly, Tisha tilted her head and looked at Nell.
“Tisha. I would like some advice!”
“Advice? What is it?”
There’s no way you’ve become interested in witchcraft now.
I wondered what kind of advice he wanted to hear.
“Ian and Leto. I don’t know what to do between you two! I’d love to hear some advice on that. Isn’t Tisha-nim in a relationship too!”
“… To me?”
She was Tisha, slightly bewildered.
She
She’s herself, too She’s the kind of person who decided to share a meal with one man.
She came to me and said that she was good, and that was her love advice.
‘Looks like you’ve come to the wrong person.’
An embarrassing smile was built on its own, but Tisha decided to listen to Nell’s concerns.
And after a while, Tisha figured out the real problem with Nell now.
“… Nell. Let me ask you something.”
“Yes, Tisha.”
“Is it the gaze of the public that you are worried about right now? Or are you and Ian and Mr. Leto?”
“Of course the latter! Public opinion doesn’t matter much….”
“Then two people are important. Ask me Go, I’m worried about this, what about you guys? I can’t choose between the two, so can I keep holding onto my heart in this situation?”
Nell is so taken aback by Tisha’s answer that she doesn’t know what to do.
Is it okay to say such a thing or is it a big rude thing?
“I’m sorry. Kyle did too. However, only then can we come up with an answer.”
“What….”
“Just like me and everyone else. Either because you give up, or because you love it so much that you can’t give it up. That’s why it’s about being there together, competing with others and sometimes in harmony.”
Then Nell shakes her head and says no.
She herself is a male artist. It is an unprecedented place to take several people as companions.
How can you treat them as lovers in such a situation?
Nell once again confessed his worries.
“So are you going to give up?”
“… Yes?”
“Because it can’t be done, because it’s impossible. Whether it was Ian or Leto, are you going to give up?”
“Well, if I had to….”
“Okay. Why don’t you try harder so you don’t have to give up?”
To make such an effort that you don’t have to give up.
Tisha paints a smile on her lips as Nell gives her a look of incomprehension.
“You just have to rise to the rank of Count of the Empire, or a position equivalent to that.”
“I, how can I! I’m just an aspiring knight who is good at swordsmanship….”
“Don’t jump to conclusions like that. If only that was enough, Kyle. And the one who is Kyle’s older sister. Further, the people of Kyle’s hometown. Nell, did they like you? I don’t think so.”
Tisha doesn’t know exactly what Nell’s level is.
It’s not that she doesn’t care about her, it’s that she’s just unfamiliar with her swordsmanship.
But she knows this one thing for sure.
Kyle, Leado, and all of John Nassen’s people.
She was smiling contentedly as she watched Nell sweat as she trained.
I met them several times and got to know them. I know very well.
The fact that they smile is worth it.
That she is a person whose sweat shed and the effort she has spent so far will not be in vain.
“You still have time, Nell. So instead of worrying about that right now, design your future bigger and better. Don’t you know? Although not as good as Kyle, Mr. Ian and Leto are good enough. You have these two! And ask at once!”
“That… really i can….”
“Yes. Enough, it can be. I trust you. If you don’t believe in yourself, trust me. Haven’t I been called a witch again? mmm! Looking at it like this, I think I can see the future of Nell!”
I can see the future, Tisha said, and Nell perked up her ears involuntarily.
“What… Is it the future?”
Tisha laughs and replies at the tone she is secretly looking forward to.
“I see Nell holding both men’s hands and smiling happily.”
