105 – Sylvia’s too big ball
After enjoying the fresh air on the balcony for a while, she went back to the wedding hall where people were gathering. The first to greet her was Sylvia, who looked as if the corners of her lips could touch her ears.
That’s how Ariel’s most worried moment came.
“Eugh, didn’t I know Ariel was so bold?”
“Why don’t you stop talking nonsense and go on your way?”
Ariel growled with a lot of sinew floating on her forehead, but Sylvia didn’t even eat a seed.
Rather, seeing such a reaction, she thought that it worked well and began to provoke Ariel by pushing it even further.
“Ah, something happened a little while ago, but I can’t do that. Isn’t that right, Edgar?”
“Okay. I want you to take it off.”
Sylvia’s foolishness was not a thing yesterday or today, but Edgar had no intention of getting caught up in it and harming himself.
“Are you getting away with this? You do too much.”
“Why don’t you think about what you did. By the way, what about Prince Hagel?”
“I’m going to meet some acquaintances for a while. How about that? Are you handsome?”
Sylvia asked in a subtle tone, as if asking for compliments on Hagel’s appearance.
Edgar and Ariel laughed involuntarily.
“At that time, ‘Are you a good person?’ Shouldn’t I ask?”
“I know that I am a good person, right? I was just asking.”
In short, it means that I just wanted to hear compliments that my lover was good-looking, in a bowing way.
Since it wasn’t difficult anyway, Edgar decided to honestly praise Hagel’s appearance.
“He was definitely handsome. It’s been a long time since a man can see that a good-looking person is the real thing.”
“Right, right? How is Ariel?”
“what… It wasn’t bad. Even though Edman can’t do that.”
“… uh?”
Following Ariel’s answer, the other two people, except for her, momentarily suspected that their ears were wrong.
Edgar, the person involved, did it because he had never thought of himself as having a very good appearance, but Sylvia never dreamed that Ariel, other than anyone else, would say such a thing, so it felt like she had been stabbed in the back of the head with a blunt instrument.
Although crayfish are on the side of crabs, Ariel has never been the type to praise Edgar in front of others.
Rather, he grumbled when he grumbled, and it was safe to say that he could count on one hand the number of enemies who openly embraced him like now.
“Why? Any complaints?”
“It looks like you’re too dumbfounded to say anything?”
“Why are you dumbfounded? You just told the truth.”
“No, even if I think about it, that’s a bit… … .”
As a man, it’s a little hard to praise him as if he were praising another man’s face, but even in Edgar’s opinion, Hagel was purely superior in appearance.
To put it a little further, at least to the extent that he can be described as the most handsome of all the people he has ever seen.
Of course, if Edgar’s style is more masculine, Hagel’s is a little more like a graceful scion, but his impression was the same.
However, Ariel, on the contrary, widened her eyes at Edgar’s words and snapped at them with a tone that said there was no choice.
“I don’t care what other guys think. That’s what it means in my eyes anyway. understand?”
“okay. Still, it feels good to hear that you are handsome.”
Edgar was also a human being, so there was no way he wasn’t happy with the compliment.
Besides, judging from Ariel’s eyes, he seemed to really think that way.
There was no need to spoil the atmosphere by vomiting here, so I patted her on the back and accepted it.
No matter what, I shrugged my shoulders when he took the side of me as a lover.
“Well, Edgar was pretty handsome too. But not as much as that.”
And this side, too, was properly casting the crayfish side, but the problem was that this greatly upset Ariel’s planting.
“Do you want to get kicked out of here right now? Or are my ears wrong?”
She and Edgar were lovers, but in a sense, they were similar to siblings.
Ariel, in particular, never ignores people swearing at Edgar, but she says all sorts of things about her being an idiot even in front of her face.
In other words, he can curse and praise him, but he must have the value that others must only praise him.
It was strange that, on such a subject, women outsiders would become distorted if they only praised them.
When Ariel demanded to speak again with a bloody smile in a tone close to threat in effect, Sylvia responded sternly, raising her hand at shoulder height as if declaring surrender.
“I’m joking, Princess Ariel. Edgar is the most wonderful man in the world.”
“That attitude. Of course, I can’t keep an eye on it.”
Only then did Ariel cross her arms and nod her head with a satisfied smile.
Sylvia clicked her tongue lightly at that nasty scene and muttered in a voice that ant crawled.
“Tch, nothing to look at… … .”
“what?”
“Oh, no. Amman, even if he’s a wonderful person, I wouldn’t dare to take my eyes off Princess Ariel’s affectionate person. Don’t be like that.”
Edgar wondered why he had to watch this skit here, but thanks to Ariel’s power, he was quite satisfied with suddenly becoming the most handsome man in the world.
He didn’t know what power was like before, but he feels like he’s found out now.
Even so, I would like to refrain from bowing down like this in the future.
“Come to think of it, when are you planning to go back?”
Even if the coming-of-age ceremony ends tonight, the castle will be open for three more days, so Ariel asked about Sylvia’s schedule.
In fact, this was a schedule that Yulken had set in advance, but since there were many guests from far away, he was considerate of it as a way to enjoy Hespania leisurely.
Of course, there are often families that host coming-of-age ceremonies for two or three days, but it would put a burden on the servants and those who attended, so they turned to open only the castle.
Surprisingly, this fact is getting a lot of response from those who participated in this coming-of-age ceremony.
“I’m going to stay with him a little longer and visit Hespania. Doesn’t it matter?”
“It’s something your father allowed you to do, so do it yourself. After all, there must be many people like you.”
Ariel has her own pride in the city of Hespania.
Rather than the pride he had as the heir to the ruling family, it was a more friendly and affectionate feeling.
It is common to say that it is similar to longing for and cherishing one’s hometown.
That’s why, deep inside, I had a little wish that the people who came today would enjoy the city of Hespania a little more and go back to their respective homes after looking around.
I pretended not to care about Sylvia’s words earlier, but I felt proud inside.
In the midst of that, the two of them continued to talk about future schedules.
In the meantime, Sylvia, who came up with an idea, suddenly approached Ariel with twinkling eyes and said,
“hit. Since it’s been a long time coming, wouldn’t it be okay for the four of us to go out together tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?”
“Why? It’s enough just to go alone.”
The offer itself wasn’t bad, but as Ariel, she didn’t want anyone to disturb her alone time with Edgar.
Because I had a similar experience with Shuri and Ronan before.
However, Sylvia did not give in to this and clung to Ariel, even acting upside down.
That would be the case, because it was his wish to go out with a friend who has a lover just like himself.
Besides, since we might not see each other often from now on, I thought that it would be okay if the men also strengthened their friendship.
“Don’t do that. huh? Edgar, how are you?”
“me? Well… … .”
In the end, to defeat the enemy general, you must first capture the horse, so Sylvia turned the protest to Edgar.
However, this was a rather embarrassing issue for Edgar.
To be honest, I wanted to listen to Sylvia’s request at least once, but the problem was that if I did that, it would be clear that Ariel would be arguing about whose side she was on right now.
Besides, having learned earlier that she didn’t really like being around other people, she didn’t even want to agree to something Ariel didn’t like.
“Don’t burden Ed. I will give you an answer by tomorrow.”
“Are you thinking positively?”
“do not know. Think about it.”
Ariel, unable to see him embarrassed, stepped forward and cut off his words.
So, Sylvia had no choice but to turn around lonely without any special harvest, but she decided to be satisfied with just bringing up the story.
“okay. Oh, and I had something to ask Edgar, but I forgot to ask.”
“To me?”
When Edgar reacted suspiciously at the thought of something unusual, Sylvia nodded slightly and asked, recalling the conversation she had with Helen the day before yesterday.
“What happened to the story of bringing in a lady-in-waiting? Even Madame Helene is curious about it.”
At the same time as the question, the expression of the two people changed to the opposite.
In particular, Ariel openly frowned and stared at Edgar as if demanding an explanation.
“what? What do you mean by maid?”
“… … .”
Meanwhile, Edgar, with a pale complexion, simply stared into the air in silence, enjoying the sweetness of the air.
I thought that maybe I might not be able to enjoy this preciousness from tomorrow.
