79 – Wow!

“There are so many griffons! Miraculous!”
palace ranch.
Audrit came to see the Griffon, which she had previously received as a gift from Queen Alexandria.
Surprisingly, there were 30 griffons from the Imperial delegation inside the fence, along with her griffon.
A group of griffons.
In Basilite Kingdom, it was a rare spectacle that could not be seen even with money.
“It’s Rico! Rico!”
When Audrit waved her hand, the smallest of the griffon group hurriedly jumped on both legs with her wings folded.
“Oh! You have grown so much!”
While I was in Narundra, I hadn’t seen Rico for months, and Rico had grown to her height.
It was big enough to swallow Audrit in one bite.
“Keek.”
“cute.”
“Princess. Stay away just in case.”
Baroness Osmond was watching from afar, frightened.
However, Audrit put her arms around the nape of Coco’s neck with a proud expression and stroked it.
“Did you miss me? Aren’t you sick?”
“Keek.”
The elderly trainer taking care of Rico smiled and said.
“Princess. Slowly, I will try to practice.”
“Can I?”
“Rico likes the princess, so you should be safe.”
“I’ll have to practice a little bit starting tomorrow.”
Audrit stroked Rico and smiled brightly.

“I will really kiss you.”
Maru was still confronting Galatea against the wall.
“Be prepared.”
“… … ”
“My face is slowly approaching. Do not be afraid.”
“… … ”
“It is sticking now. it’s getting stuck Your lips will stick together in a little while.”
“… … ”
damn it
Maru was burning inside.
Despite all the threats she made, she didn’t budge.
It seems that she is enjoying this situation rather than smiling softly.
‘Why is this woman doing this? Please shout out to me to stop!’
She’s not nervous at all, so I feel like I’ve been tricked.
The distance was so close that we could feel each other’s breath, and this is how our lips actually met.
Shit.
I can’t back down, what can I do?
“… … ”
After thinking for a while,
“Have you ever kissed?”
Let’s kill some time by talking.
“Of course it’s the first time, right? It must be the first.”
“… … ”
what. why don’t you say anything
She was staring at her face with her back pressed against the wall.
We met eyes, then glanced at lips.
Keep looking at each other… Was this woman nervous too?
It’s a chance.
Shall we make the atmosphere more frightening?
He grabbed her by the arms and lifted her up.
“I’ll kiss you very sloppy. Resistance is useless.”
“… … ”
sigh.
uh? uh huh
Why are you laughing?
“Goes.”
He licks his lips with his tongue and moves his head forward.
As the distance gets closer, she is seen swallowing soundlessly.
Are you nervous too?
Stopped again at a really close distance.
“It would be an honor to kiss the crown prince.”
What else can I say?
what else do you say?
run away quickly!
“and. I hope you won’t be mistaken because I allowed my heart to kiss. Besides you, I already have Princess Audrey and… ”
side.
Galatea suddenly kissed her lips.
“Whoa!”
When he felt the soft and soft touch, Maru was surprised and hit his butt.
“What, what, what are you doing!”
He hastily wiped his lips with the back of his hand.
Even so, the afterglow of the kiss was not easily erased.
The feel of her lips was imprinted on my mind and gave me goosebumps.
“Someone told me to kiss you!”
“I waited with a happy heart to kiss you, but I thought you were taking too long, so I rushed at you in my haste. Please forgive me if I have offended you.”
Galatea smiled kindly and bowed her head.
Maru sat down and looked up blankly.
So is it your mother or not?
Oh shit I don’t know!
I can’t be angry because I have nothing to say.
It’s embarrassing.
let’s bounce
Maru quickly got up and ran out of the room.
“Where is the mirror of truth! Mirror of Truth!”
He ran quickly to the warehouse where the old furniture was.
***
A luxurious inn in the city.
Kiera went into her room after dinner.
A quiet and secluded room.
I sat down on the soft bed.
When I was full, I felt a little energized.
As I gained strength, I became greedy to visit Maru.
But he must be asleep by now.
You’ll be tired from a long trip, and you’ll only get annoyed when you go.
Being alone, I had a lot of thoughts.
In the past, when he was sick, he felt guilty towards Maru, who took care of him carefully, and regret about his actions.
However, every time, everything was rationalized by saying that it was an act that came about because of Maru, who was not honest.
That didn’t mean my heart was okay.
These days, the idea that she is a selfish and bad woman has begun to creep in.
Even though I love myself, how did I end up blaming myself when I sold my hat?
It’s all because of the floor.
Ever since I met him, I’ve been crazy.
Because he’s a really bad brother.
smart.
Suddenly a knock was heard.
Kiera woke from her thoughts and looked toward the door.
No one came to visit her.
Is it an inn employee?
He opened the door without thinking.
A tall man with an exotic appearance stood there.
He held out the paper politely with both hands.
“I am from the royal palace. This is a letter from the Crown Prince.”
“Maru… ?”
Keira’s heart pounded.
A welcome smile formed on her lips and she immediately handed over the letter.
How did he know he was staying here?
“Was Maru watching me?”
“Yes. The Crown Prince is always watching Kiera-sama with interest.”
“Also… !”
The man bowed his head and took an example.
“I will just go. Have a good night.”
Keira closed the door and sat down on the bed.
I was delighted and opened the paper.
Kiera.
I want to meet you tonight
There are many eyes to see if you meet inside the castle, so let’s meet at the farmhouse outside the castle at midnight.
Come to the house where the red cloth is hung.
Kiera’s heart raced.
I reread it so many times that the paper crumpled.
I put each letter in my eyes and repeated the place to meet countless times.
“Do you miss me too?”
She immediately got up and went down to the first floor.
I ordered a bathtub and water from the innkeeper.
After a while, when the warm bath water arrived in the room, she washed herself clean and changed her underwear.
Seeing her tonight must mean that she wants something other than a conversation.
To make him unforgettable memories, she dressed up pretty and fragrant.
And at midnight, they left the inn.
***
There were no stars visible in the night sky.
Outside the castle was darkness itself.
However, even at night, it was not an obstacle to the warrior with good eyesight.
Kiera arrived at a nearby farmhouse in good order.
The village was quiet.
The lights were off in every house, so there was a bleak atmosphere.
Kiera quietly moved from house to house until she found a house with a red cloth hanging over it.
More at noblemtl
Judging from the lights in the room, he thought that Maru was waiting.
A smile crept across her lips.
“Did you miss me so much that you bought your own house? Today, I will moan a lot for you.”
When I opened the door and went inside, it was empty with only candles lit.
There was no one inside.
“… … ?”
Keira looked around, bewildered.
A folded piece of paper lay on the table.
I opened it and read it.
I’m sorry Keira.
As much as my status is my status, and as Audrit is the princess of this country, I have no choice but to be careful.
To avoid prying eyes of Audrit and the King, we must meet in a safe place.
If you go to the stable, there will be a horse. Ride it and come to the abandoned temple site.
-Floor-
The abandoned temple site was a place to go 10km from here.
Kiera sensed something was wrong, but she didn’t have time to reason.
I was impatient at the thought of meeting Maru soon.
Heying!
I immediately got on my horse and headed towards the abandoned temple site.
The night deepened and the cold penetrated into his clothes.
As they reached the overgrown ruins, Kiera looked around.
All I could see was the ruins of the weeping temple.
‘Isn’t this a bit out of place?’
There is no reward in adorning one’s body.
“Where is Maru? It’s me! Come on out!”
Her cry carried the wind and echoed far away.
The cry of an animal could be heard in the distance.
There is no sound other than that.
“is it. Was it?”
Only then did Kiera realize.
“Ahahaha.”
She lamented her foolishness.
I was so impatient with Maru that I was fooled.
“Who called me? Come on out!”
I shouted into the air, and after a while I heard a rustle.
Keira’s expression hardened.
Was it a trap too?
A woman emerged from the darkness.
“Didn’t you bring a knife? Then I will have to fight with my bare hands.”
Blond woman smiling coldly.
She was Galatea.
