Shortly after the carriage with Ain and the others arrived at the castle.
The carriage with the Graf line also passes through the castle gate. And the Graphs got off the stopped carriage and saw a castle with an absolute presence called White Knight.
"I didn't know you were really going to step into the heart of Ishtarika"
"If you look up, your neck is high enough to be tired, but wide enough that you can't see the ends...... And what a beautiful castle."
Stepping into the royal castle of Ishtarika, even as a graph, was my first experience.
Needless to say, Krone is just amazed at the size of that castle.
"Ladies and gentlemen have arrived. Welcome to our Ishtarika, its heart, White Knight."
Warren welcomes the Graphs who stepped down.
In anticipation of his arrival, the entrance to the castle opened and from there a supply appeared to several knights.
"Now leave your luggage with them. We will also keep the baggage of the Augusto family servants. We'd like you to take a short break first, and we'll take you to your room with their guide."
Oh, thank you, Lord Warren.
"Thank you, Master Warren."
Although they were still surprised by the awesomeness of the White Knight, I managed to regain a bit of my mind when I heard that Warren would show up and guide them.
"Miss Krone, you must be tired of being walked long. If you don't mind, why don't you heal your fatigue in the castle's prized bathtub? I was wondering if we could go to dinner with Olivia afterwards."
For Krone, who wanted to get familiar, this suggestion seemed delightful.
To meet Olivia face to face and have dinner seats together for the first time after this. It was urgent for her to think that she had walked all day and was also sweaty.
"Thank you for your consideration. Then let me sweeten your words."
"I understand. Lord Graff should rest with you, and we would like to provide you with a bath for your guests."
"Then let me sweeten you too."
"I'll put a few servings on both of you. I will guide you to the bathroom and help you, so please let me know what you want. Let me show you to your room first."
That's how Warren signals, and the servants guide the Graphs.
The luggage was to be carried by the knights to the holding room.
"Ah, Lord Alfred. After Lord Graf has healed his body, I will send someone to guide him again in a moment, so get to him and come to his seat with Olivia."
"I understand. Thank you for your patience."
Guided by the suppliers, Graf and the others headed to the room first.
Seafood that has already been purchased from the port town of Magna has been brought to the head chef and cooking has begun.
After the guide to the castle, Warren headed to the room where the king waited to report about today.
I beg your pardon.
"Get in."
Warren arrived in the room where Silvard waited. In that room, it wasn't just Silvard, but Lloyd was eagerly awaiting Warren's arrival as well.
Good morning, Lord Warren.
"No. It's been a fruitful inspection, a lot."
"Then report."
Silvard couldn't help but wonder what the consequences were.
For that reason, I had Warren check on me again and again until he arrived in the room.
There are two reasons for this. Reports on sea crystals, which are also important as Ishtarika. And the other was about the Augusto family.
"... we both know what you care about. Shall I say that I will submit detailed documentation on the sea crystals later?
"Never mind the rest."
"Hmm. If I could get a report, I wouldn't have a problem."
"First, then, Lord Graf Augusto. Let's talk about the former Grand Duke of Augusto. Not for nobility, in a nutshell."
Explain what Warren found out in one day today.
First, I decided to report on Graf.
"You said he was a grand duke of character not for nobility?
"Yep. Again, briefly, he took a family more than the country. So the result is going to be Ishtarika."
"Hmm? I mean, more important than the heim you were serving... that Lord Krone accompanied you on this journey?
"You will be."
Warren agrees with what Lloyd says.
I'm going to be Warren, and I'm going to see who the Graphs are.
Can't you expect loyalty, then?
"That won't happen either. I was wondering if Lord Graff would face it in good faith, at least in a situation where there were guarantees regarding the safety of the family and, as things stand, that of Miss Krone. He's a smart guy and can calculate, if you're in a position above, let's get the deal going pretty well. If you say it as a flaw, it's hard to show strength when you're in a lower position."
"Your Majesty. Though the drawback is there, it's not uncommon to speak of Lord Warren as a man who can."
"I do think so for the rest. Some of them must be pretty strong."
Graf was never underrated in Warren, but rather higher.
At any rate, the fact that we took upon ourselves a strong man named Ishtarika prevented us from feeling somewhat burdened and gaining a glimpse of his true strength.
"Miss Krone as Ishtarika... and the Augusto people in Heim. When it becomes" unexpected "for us in the future, we will not become enemies if we know that we will not harm them."
"Although I heard in the original report that even Heim was a strict and fair aristocrat. I don't know because I take more families than I do in the country."
"As a nobleman, I find it terribly contradictory, don't you think it's easy to understand"
"Lord Lloyd is right. It's easy to understand. You just have to understand that it won't harm them. I was wondering if you could wave your arms for his safety."
Sometimes it was easy to understand about Graf, as Lloyd said.
As it stands, I felt a great debt of gratitude to Ishtarika, even if I cared about Krone, and it seemed to me that I would return it.
"Well, then the way you put it is rambling, but the front seat is over. I want to hear what's at stake."
"Have you come with the front seat, Your Grace?"
"Whatever... I knew our majesty was a family man too"
What Silvado says is Krone. For Silvard, although the Graf thing wasn't a small thing either, the priority in him now was to say what kind of relationship Krone had with Ein.
"Lloyd! Whatever your lord would care to say,"
"Ha ha! Then continue, Lord Warren."
"I understand. Miss Krone is exactly the jewel's stone, the Prince of Heim's unbearable woman."
The report on Krone begins. Krone, who has talked dignified and expressed his thoughts about Ein, even before himself, has made a great impression on Warren.
"Talk about taking advantage of yourself without offending the other person to the power of understanding things in detail. I felt I had excellent decisiveness in the gall power to do it. And your appearance won't even take a pull from Lord Chris, so that's no problem."
"That's the vessel, Warren. As much as the Lord speaks."
"At this point, let me express myself a little differently. Miss Krone will certainly be capable enough to surpass me in the future."
"Lord Warren enough to be told that even the Historic Chancellor will contend for the top?
Warren's reputation as prime minister in Ishtarika is very high.
Of course the policies and developments he has carried out so far, but above all he was good at his ability as a civilian and his ability to negotiate.
Besides, whether it's Heim on a continent across the ocean, there's so much power in information warfare that we can explore it.
"Master Left. If I may add another thing, she prefers Ein as a heterosexual. We will not discuss what form we will be beside Ein in the future. But in any way, she should be there."
"Then if we are generous enough to protect and cooperate, we will agree with Lord Graff's earlier thoughts."
"Lord Lloyd is right. It's worth it."
"And as for Ain, what do you think of Miss Krone?"
It was understandable to say that Krone was competent, as well as to say that he preferred Ein.
And the last thing I care about is what Ein has in mind for Krone.
"Something quite interesting happened today"
in the port town of Magna. I reported on Ein's nap and Krone's knee pillow.
Silvard didn't feel very good about a human being who would also be Prince Wang taking a nap in a public place. But I didn't feel bad about what happened after that.
"Hmm. Isn't it favorable enough for Ein as well?"
"It's the left. So there's no problem staying close to Ein."
"Lloyd. What do you think"
"I was wondering if that would be better. Ain't nobody near her age."
Lloyd agrees.
Certainly no one in the castle was close to Ain, to the point that Katima was enjoying something together.
"From my point of view as Prime Minister, I would like to say: She will be a woman of national interest."
"Well, Warren, I'll leave you with your personal opinion."
"We think well of each other, shouldn't we be nearby? At least it doesn't seem harmful."
It seems pathetic to bother to keep your distance, Warren closed the conversation.
Warren said it with a gentle grin, as he did when speaking to Ain, when expressing his opinions as an individual.
"I would also like to say as Marshal. If the Chancellor is as female as he thinks it would be in the national interest, I think he should be generously welcomed. As an individual, if Ein is in the right direction..."
"I see. I also understood what the two of you thought of the rest. After all, Ain't had no negative effect on Ain, and there's nothing to complain about if it's enough to even be considered in the national interest. Ask Miss Krone what she wants to do now, Warren. As a result, it is okay to look at the direct education of the Lord."
"Yes, sir."
"Hmm. If it's the education of Chancellor Warren, it's going to be tough."
It's the same education Lord Lloyd gave your son.
At the end of the day the atmosphere was soothing and Warren's report was over.
He will be submitting a dossier summarizing his thoughts in a little more detail later, in conjunction with the matter of sea crystals.
The location is different. The rooms where the Graphs were guided.
Enjoying the castle baths, they were waiting to be picked up in a salon set up between the rooms.
"Krone, by the way. Looks like you've polished your beauty."
"I also feared the skill of the suppliers, but more than that, the beauty stuff is very good quality..."
Compared to before heading to the bathroom, the hair was more lustrous and the skin was more transparent.
The massage also soothes the face that was somewhat tired.
"Until that point, I didn't know I could show off the difference in technology"
"That was a comfortable bath, Grandpa."
"Uhm. Thanks to you I was able to relieve my fatigue"
They were leaving the bathroom for a short break. Where the sweat was also relaxing, a guide service finally arrived.
I heard him knock on the door. Graf gives Alfred instructions and passes the guide through the room.
"Excuse me. My name is Martha and I work exclusively for Olivia. I'm here to show you to Princess Olivia's dinner table."
Although Graf faced the little woman who appeared that way for a moment, he replied without putting it in his attitude.
"I understand. Then why don't you and me and Krone, two granddaughters, head over?
"Don't worry, we will serve you at the venue. Your servants will also be tired from the long journey, so Her Royal Highness the Second Princess would like you to take a break."
"Um... I understand. Alfred, tell everyone that."
"I'm in awe"
"I hope you will wait as we bring meals to the suppliers as well. Then, Master Graf, Master Krone, please come this way."
Martha leads me out of the room and starts moving.
As I was told, only Graf and Krone left the room.
"The place is a salon where the Eins are well used. I hope you enjoy the meal as we bring it in there."
He then walked a few minutes and arrived at the salon where Olivia waited.
Martha knocks on the door, confirms she heard a response from inside and opens the door.
"Dear Olivia. I've come to show you both around."
"Thank you Martha. Long time no see, Master Graff, Master Krone. Please come inside and relax."
Krone feels relieved at Olivia, who is no different from when she met her before.
Nevertheless, the outfit is wearing something even more beautiful than before, and I guess I use something that has a high Ishtarika beauty effect, just as Krone used it, my hair and skin looked more beautiful than before.
"Her Highness the Second Princess. I was thinking of a number of words. But first, I'd like to apologize."
"Ah, that's not necessarily true, Master Graff. Because I don't care anymore."
"Dear Princess, you must brace your neck if you are so called by the Second Princess."
"Yeah...... hey Ein. I don't know what to do."
"I think it's a good idea to accompany your lord for now."
That's how Ain, who was next to Olivia, followed him.
"Her Highness the Second Princess. It's been a while. To Her Royal Highness the Second Princess, Dear Ein, I never had a day where I wouldn't think about how you two were spending your time. I'm so glad to see you again."
"Well, Master Krone... oh, well, no, my lord... something is hard."
"Let's just be patient now, shall we?
It seemed that the only thing that remained the same as before was in terms of appearance, and the contents were visible and I could see how I was drowning Ain more than before.
Even the last time Krone met with the two of them, I felt strongly about her love for Ain from Olivia, but beyond that, I feel free to act now.
"Why don't you just take a seat first? Dear Olivia."
"Martha's right. Sorry to keep you waiting. Please make sure you both get to your seats."
As Martha suggested, the first thing we had to do was get our guests to take their seats.
Graf was to sit on the front of Olivia and Krone on the front of Ain.
Brought to the salon is a bigger table than what is usually placed.
It has been replaced because of the idea that it is not good to be too close.
"We'll get you a drink first."
Make sure you're seated, and Martha prepares a drink.
"Thank you"
"There's no such thing as Krone. Please take your time."
"Well. Martha, can I ask you a favor?
"Yes, sir."
Inspired by Olivia's words, Martha gives instructions to another servant who was in the room.
The servants then leave the room. Only five of the salons remained.
"Enough, Krone."
"... Dear Ein? I don't really know what you mean."
"Dear Krone, Olivia and Ein would like to have a conversation with the previous Krone. I hope you don't mind."
They wanted Krone to have a conversation like Krone.
I had a sad feeling that you would feel a little bit of other manners even though you had come across the sea to Ishtarika because of it.
"Actually, Mr. Chris is okay, too. Well, now."
"... ein. You liked to put my efforts behind you."
'Cause I haven't changed my nature, and I know I'm decent, but I'm tired of that all the time.'
"Ha... ok, if Ain't gonna be okay with that, I'll do the same."
What she was doing was never a mistake.
It was only natural for people to seem disrespectful from around them to call the royalty the same way they still do because they used to call it this.
"Dear Olivia. It's been a really long time. I told Grandpa I was done, so I won't talk about it again. But it's too dazzling for my eyes that you've become more beautiful before."
"Well, thank you, Lord Krone... Let's make it, that's preferable to take the hardness. As she grew up, Mr. Krone became more beautiful, and many of you would have liked to get engaged."
"The offer came quite well. But I don't know the details because I refused most of them in a nutshell. Hey, Grandpa."
Graf, who was suddenly told the story, reacted slightly late.
"Yep. Krone is right. The most troublesome part was that the proposal from the Third Prince became a problem."
"Well. You officially have an offer?
Olivia was surprised to hear that the prince had proposed.
"No, the place was informal. But if the prince speaks, it won't make any difference if it's official."
"Surely if the royal had spoken of it, I think it would be official to say what form it might take. You've traveled to Ishtarika a lot."
"I came through Heim with an escort by saying that Noh was going to retire and go to a trade city for health care. Since there's been a lot of information involved since then, you won't be able to identify where you are."
"But Master Olivia. Even though you've seen me over and over again, this is the first time you've had a conversation, isn't it? Yet all of a sudden I just thought something was wrong with applying for an engagement or something. And what I didn't accept physiologically."
Ein laughs a little bitterly when he hears the words.
What Ain't done at Augusto Mansion, handing Star Crystal to Krone meant the same thing, because he was doing the same thing as the Third Prince, even though he didn't know it.
"Excuse me. I brought you food."
Martha carries the food.
I just bought it from Magna and it's a menu made with fresh seafood.
This was a dish that used plenty of Olivia's favorite ingredients and I look forward to even with her.
"Hehe. I would certainly ask you to continue with that story of Mr Krone. But now that you've received your prized dish, please enjoy it first."
"That's right, it's a corner dish, so I'm going to enjoy what Olivia likes and what she hears about seafood."
"Let's say you get a non."
Enjoy cooking while it's warm first. It's just Olivia's taste, and the flavor is excellent.
The seafood that was just taken this morning was brought to the castle with its freshness preserved in a special container.
"When we were in Heim, too, we enjoyed fresh seafood purchased from the port. But this tastes more delicate and very tasty. And fresh."
"That's above all. What's fresh is the influence of magic props, Ishtarika's magic props are a few steps ahead of Haim, so you can get something delicious."
Olivia responds to Graf's thoughts.
In fact, the freshness was extraordinarily different because there were special magic items made to keep the freshness.
After that, the flavors of the ingredients were utilized because of excellent techniques such as bottom processing.
"It's more than anything if you were happy. That was worth a lot of souvenirs."
"Yeah, thanks Ain. I'm delicious too."
The meeting proceeded softly and it was a meaningful time to talk again slowly with Krone, even as Olivia.
Graf was also pleased that things were going well and could afford to enjoy the taste of the meal.
And after enjoying some cooking, the dessert is over. It's time we were having our last cup of tea, and the story moves a little.
"Excuse me. I'd like to borrow your hand wash for a moment"
"I understand. I'll show you."
Graf told Martha he wanted to go wash his hands. Ein, who hears it, takes his seat.
"Mother. I'll get some outside air, too. Lord Graff, I'll be with you on the way."
That's what Ain said. He also took a seat. Only two of the salons will be Olivia and Krone in order for Martha to guide Graff.
"Now, Mr. Krone. I asked Ain to take my seat off because I had asked him in advance."
"Dear Olivia...?
Though Krone, who suddenly became alone, gave thought to why, I couldn't think of a reason.
"What do you want to do now?
Olivia, with a slightly more serious look, asks Krone.
"Does that mean what you want to do here in Ishtarika?
"Right. But I'm sure Mr. Krone knows that's not all."
"... Yes"
About Ain and his future. Many things came to mind.
"Are you ready to spend your life in Ishtarika? It's not Heim, it's here in Ishtalika."
"That's what I've already done when I left Heim, Master Olivia."
I am relieved that the first question was about this content.
It was something I had already been prepared for, and not something that would jam my response.
"Really! Then the big problem is gone."
Although he was Olivia, who looked slightly more serious than usual, he returns that look as soon as he hears Krone's reply.
Look at that. Krone, too? And I wondered a little bit.
"Then you have to go to school here too. I don't know what to do, but I think it would be a good idea for the ladies to go to school because of Mr. Krone's image. Well, let Warren take care of some of the missing education."
"Uh, Master Olivia...?
"You can be a gem's primary stone, which can also be an extraordinarily beautiful gem. As much place to brush that, I'll have as much ready to show you. If you keep polishing, you will always get what you want. We just have to show them what we're all convinced of."
What do you say, Mr. Krone? and Olivia continues.
Olivia darkly said that her wish would come true if she continued her efforts. I understand that Krone favors Ein, which is why it was Olivia's support.
"(With Warren's report, your fathers will have no problem. Then all you have to do is polish it here. Because if she is able to work hard and smart, she will be able to finish as beautifully as possible)"
Having heard Olivia's words, Krone understood everything that it meant.
Then he looks serious and replies' yes' to Olivia.
