226. True Face
I didn’t expect this.
The title of prince, which he had been carrying since birth, was heavier on him than he thought.
Still, he had no intention of throwing it away.
He wanted to become a little stronger himself.
He wanted to become someone who was not pushed aside by other brothers.
A purple door appeared in the room one day.
The first door I saw didn’t have anything written on it, but for some reason, the moment I saw it, I started walking as if I was being sucked in.
I met a man there.
“Welcome to Claire’s General Store.”
A being that does not know whether it is a man, a woman, an elderly person, or a child.
The moment I finished dealing with him and came out.
The Kingdom of German began to twist strangely.
I wanted something like this.
Definitely not.
* * *
The carriage provided by the royal family to go to the Germanic Kingdom was not only fast but also capable of absorbing external shocks.
There was almost no rattling characteristic of horse-drawn carriages, so it was definitely more comfortable than other carriages when traveling long distances.
“Ah, I’m tired.”
Deia, sitting across from her, yawns and turns her body to and fro.
Since she wasn’t shaking, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to fall asleep, but she looked somewhat uncomfortable.
Originally, she was supposed to return to North Weden with Darius, but Deia came along, saying she wanted to visit the Kingdom of German.
She is not going to play, but she wants to play too, so she is not following, so she allows.
Aria was accompanying the carriage that followed, along with a gift to be handed over to the German Kingdom.
Originally, she would have told her not to come, but she came along in the name of helping her friend Eleanor.
I don’t know if she really followed with such benevolent intentions.

Anyway, Eleanor seemed to like it when she saw it.
“You can’t sleep in a carriage.”
She grumbled and tried to change her position here and there, but Deia continued to look like she didn’t like her.
Then she glanced at me and quietly came to the seat next to me.
“Lend me your knee.”
“…… What?”
Before I could answer anything, Deia naturally laid her head down on her lap. When I looked down at her, putting the book she was reading aside, she had her arms crossed and her eyes were closed.
“What are you looking at?”
Still, she seemed calm as if she expected me to be looking at her, so she answered.
In the past, there was a feeling that the distance was close. I thought it wouldn’t be a big problem if I thought of it as the distance between her siblings.
Is this the distance between siblings?
“Deia.”
Even though she called her lowly, Deia said nothing. She couldn’t have fallen asleep already, so she was deliberately not answering.
“Deia.”
“Ah, why?”
In the end, when she saw that I wasn’t going to back down, she slowly opened her eyes and became grumpy with her red face.
“There must be a line that should not be crossed, even between siblings.”
I didn’t have any brothers or sisters, so I don’t know for sure, but there are lines that must be kept even among family members.
“It doesn’t seem like a good idea for a big sister to fall asleep on her brother’s lap.”
Perhaps because my words offended her, Daya snorted, saying it was absurd.
“Is everyone like this? “What’s wrong with family members lending their knees?”
“… ….”
“Aren’t you acting too much because you think of me as being rational?”
When I said that, I had nothing else to say.
I was practically ignorant of the concept of family.
Was she uncomfortable because, without realizing it, I was seeing her as her woman, not her sister?
Then you might think I should have come to my senses.
“Okay then.”
But isn’t the tone typical of gaslighting?
“Can I lie down like this on Darius’ lap?”
She was so blunt that when she asked, Deia kept her mouth shut for a moment. Then she quickly stands up.
“I’m not sleepy.”
“… ….”
“It’s true. “I just woke up because I wasn’t sleepy.”
I sigh, but I begin to focus on the book again. Since I had trouble sleeping in the carriage, I tended to read books.
“Oh, I feel like I’m going to throw up.”
I thought I would be able to concentrate on the book, but I heard grumbling next to me.
I was wondering something else, but Deia’s complexion had gotten really bad.
“Is it motion sickness?”
The royal carriage didn’t shake much, and Deia was used to riding in a carriage, so she didn’t think there would be any problems.
She wondered if she should have been given motion sickness medication, but Deia covered her mouth with her hand and mumbled.
“I imagined lying on Darius’ lap because of you.”
“… ….”
“Wow!”
I really hated it.
I said with a sigh to Deia, whose expression was becoming more and more contemplative, saying she was embarrassed.
“Lean on my shoulder.”
“… ….”
“It’ll be okay if you just lean back and rest.”
Deia sneakily approaches me and places her head on my shoulder. His expression cleared up, as if he felt a little more comfortable.
Soon after.
Through the disheveled hair, a regular, light breathing sound could be heard.
“Are you asleep?”
I took a quick look and found that he was sleeping comfortably with his eyes closed.
I briefly remembered him complaining about how difficult it was to fall asleep in the carriage.
“Even siblings can do this.”
I closed Deia’s book and looked out her window so as not to wake her.

“Don’t worry.”
Rahul German, the first prince of the German Kingdom, smiles to reassure Eleanor.
“I’m not really worried.”
Eleanoa responded angrily because she really wasn’t worried about anything, but Rahul laughed and said that he even liked that.
“hahahaha, of course it’s Princess Eleanor. “It’s different from other women.”
‘Ah, sir…’ ….’
Eleanor swallows her saliva, barely holding back the swear words that almost come out of her mouth.
I heard that the royal families of Jerman have been dating a lot of women since ancient times, and Jehuul in particular has many women.
But I had no idea that he would flirt so blatantly with himself, the princess of the Griffin Kingdom.
‘How are you going to take responsibility for it later?’
If his father and current king steps down, his eldest son has the first right of succession.
However, if he had a close relationship with Eleanor, it would naturally mean that Eleanor would become Jerman’s mistress.
That would be a direction that even the German Kingdom would not want.
Even if he gets married, he would want it to be with other brothers rather than his eldest son.
Rahul German left and other brothers came in one by one.
In particular, the second and third children, who were participating in the battle to subdue the giant monster today, were quite blatantly aggressive with their affection.
“hahahaha, your brother came and went? “Don’t take it too seriously.”
The second child, Lehu, speaks softly and considerately, but I don’t know what he’s thinking inside.
“Stay calm. “You are the princess of Griffin.”
Cold voice.
The third Serhul is not very affectionate with people and is unpleasant to meet.
As if competing, the two try not to let go of the conversation with Eleanoa in between.
‘Why on earth are they doing this?’
But Eleanor was looking at the situation calmly. Not just one or two, but all of the princes suddenly come to woo her.
I could only think that the German Kingdom was up to something.
That’s why I’m on guard.
‘Isn’t this real?’
If you look at the princes’ actions, they really seemed to be in love with Eleanor.
Because she had a unique eye for people, she couldn’t help but be particularly embarrassed.
The princes were wooing him sincerely and passionately, as if they were under some sort of spell.
The second and third children leave.
I wondered if the next things would come again.
For reference, the youngest child, the sixth child, was just eight years old.
She is a whopping 10 years older than the still young Princess Eleanor.
When she told that child she loved her, she really felt like she was doing something bad.
‘I hope you don’t come.’
She wants to keep the door locked, but she doesn’t know what kind of suspicion she might get if she does that in Jerman’s palace.
Eleanor eventually sighs and looks out her window.
The desert spread out behind the city.
Beyond the horizon will be the Kingdom of Griffin, where…….
‘Deius.’
For the first time, he missed the man he thought was his destiny. He wanted to go back quickly.
Vacation is over soon, so I have to go to the academy.
It was Eleanor who hoped that the princes would succeed in subduing the demonic beasts.
At that time.
Kkiik.
The door opens and a man comes in.
He had a mask-like smile on his face, thinking that he was also one of the six princes.
“How are you satisfied with life in the palace?”
A well-groomed beard.
Wrinkled skin.
However, the bronze-colored appearance still remains dignified.
An old man sitting on the throne of the German Kingdom.
Rahmaul Jerman personally visited this place.
“Yes, I am just grateful that you treated me so well.”
Eleanor responds with a smile.
Actually, I haven’t had a long conversation with Ramahul Jerman, but seeing him up close gives me a headache.
What should I say?
I felt like a scorpion’s sting was lurking behind the smiling, kind old man.
It wasn’t a very good feeling.
The old man actually did not hide his greed and came forward.
“I heard that our sons are behaving very rudely.”
“No. You’re just making fun of me. “I also receive it with a smile.”
“hehehehe, is that so?”
The desire in Rahmahul’s eyes. Perhaps he was a man in charge of a kingdom for no reason, and his desire itself was extremely grand and selfish.
‘Aren’t you crazy?’
Eleanor received the brunt of the disgusting desire boiling in the corner of his eyes. However, he passes it off naturally without changing his expression and maintaining a smile.
“Now that I think about it, other princes will be arriving soon. “He comes to my room once a day.”
“Hmm, my sons are breaking etiquette.”
Rahmahul seemed to not be very pleased with that and took a step back. He walked out, stroking his beard and smiling as he looked forward to his next time.
“…… And.”
Feeling dumbfounded, Eleanor relaxed her neck and sighed.
What on earth is this?
From the sixth child, an 8-year-old child.
He is an old man with six sons and five daughters.
Eleanor, who saw with her own eyes the promiscuous yet passionate s*xual desires of the German royal family and felt with her own skin, her irritation began to rise to the top of her head.
Furthermore, it was not because King Ramahool really had feelings for him.
Perhaps she was just trying to get the eccentric satisfaction of stealing the girl her sons liked.
“Yes.”
Okay.
She bites her teeth and strokes her forehead.
She was saved by Deius Verdi and lived a simple life at the academy.
“This comes out every now and then, right?”
Eleanoa Luden Griffin, like Findeneye, was a boss in charge of a chapter in the game ‘Retry’.
In the original work, she is a fallen princess.
Rebels who stay up all night.
A girl who was called a dignified monster.
Orpheus, who lost her mind or had her body taken away by the evil spirit of the griffin, was judged to be unworthy of being king.
She was the one who instigated numerous students, led the knights, and made the cool-headed judgment that it was right to overthrow the country.
“Let’s do something.”
Eleanor gritted her teeth and began to reveal her secret plans and her true nature.
