Episode 66. I am a happy man (1)

“… … .”

“The oath of protection!”

“oh my god… … .”

Murmur.

There’s an uproar everywhere.

It’s because of the guard’s oath.

A knight can serve only one lord and one lady for his entire life.

Loyalty to the lord, chastity to the lady.

Therefore, the knights were careful about their oath of protection.

This is because even if you make a promise to a woman with a bad reputation, you must keep it.

An act that is a symbol of chivalry.

It was such a valuable opportunity.

A time of promise that can never come again.

“… … .”

Princess Fiona opened her eyes so wide that they could not get any bigger.

I heard that the current Knights of Raizel Palace have not entered into a separate oath of protection.

Moreover, I am a count.

Also, Spirit Master.

The moment she agrees, Princess Fiona receives a huge boost.

The emperor also gives an interesting look.

The same goes for the royal family watching around them.

In particular, the witch princesses give off looks that make them go crazy with envy.

They are full of envy and jealousy.

“… … .”

Princess Fiona’s body is shaking.

The twists and turns continue.

It will be overwhelming.

It’s so complicated that your head will explode.

I saw her.

Questions and concerns contained in blue eyes.

I couldn’t agree easily.

He must be worried about me asking for a knight’s oath from him.

It is obvious that the imperial family, including the empress and crown prince, will be harassed.

The same goes for established aristocrats.

A moment of waiting.

I looked at her plainly and passionately.

Sincerely.

Princess Fiona stared quietly.

I asked with my eyes.

Are you sure you’ll be okay?

Although she is a royal family, Fiona is good and kind.

I nodded.

That moment.

“I am Fiona dur Kaishar… … . The driver’s… … I swear… … “I will accept it with joy.”

I see Fiona’s tears several times today.

But it was different.

A dew full of emotion, not anger and sadness.

“Chuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!”

I responded vigorously as her knight.

***

“A count… … . I’m a count… … . Haha.”

It was so absurd that I burst out laughing.

The Crown Prince’s birthday party was a mess because of Fiona and me.

The main character has changed.

It was an opportunity to repay Princess Fiona’s kindness several times over.

The earl is a great nobleman.

With the position of Margrave, you can raise a large number of private soldiers in your territory.

Become a general when you punish the enemies of the empire.

An important nobleman along with the Duke and Marquis.

A position representing the empire in other countries.

The honor and benefits are enormous.

“It’s free and dangerous.”

The emperor’s unconventional actions are not free.

Skillful political action to recruit talented people.

Accepted.

Counts and higher nobles can use all libraries and facilities in the empire.

A big deal with nothing bad.

In addition, my presence was a great gift to Princess Fiona.

Fiona has no back.

Now here I am, the Spirit Blade Master.

From now on, no one will dare to ignore her.

I knelt down and made an oath to become an escort knight.

Princess Fiona also accepted.

The emperor’s hearty laughter followed.

They even applauded and welcomed us.

And just like that, the crown prince’s birthday celebration party ended.

On the way back to the palace by carriage.

Neither she nor I could speak.

Princess Fiona blushed.

He quickly went into his room.

Same goes for me.

“Summon Undine.”

I can’t sleep like this.

I summoned a spirit that I could talk to.

Pot!

As his inner energy drained, Undine revealed his blue body.

“Mr. Frausch, how have you been?”

“How have you been, Undine?”

A beautiful spirit.

There is no feeling of exchange between humans.

Mentally connected friends.

It’s the best place to share deep thoughts.

“The energy is bright. “Has something good happened?”

As expected from a spirit with whom a contract had been signed, his mental state was immediately noticed.

“yes. Actually today… … .”

That’s how the story started.

Undine listened quietly with a sweet smile on her face.

Then.

“This was the imperial palace where Kaishar lived… … .”

Undine, whose voice seems steeped in reminiscence.

He seems to know Emperor Kaishar, the first monarch of the empire.

“Do you know the first emperor?”

“He was my summoner until he returned to Odin’s arms.”

“ah!”

I was surprised.

Kaishar the Great was known only as a high-level Spirit Master.

“Was Emperor Kaishar also a spiritist?”

“yes. Kaishar had a high affinity with the water spirit. The place where he grew up was where a large river flowed. “It has high affinity, so I was able to summon water spirits.”

I thought of the portrait of the great emperor.

Emperor Kaishar the Great conquered this continent with a strong mentality and unrivaled swordsmanship.

And the empire that was built.

“What kind of person was he?”

“… I don’t know what it would be like from a human perspective, but the Kaishar I saw was a weak person. He fought against the loneliness of the Absolute. Then, when he was tired and tired, he talked to me.”

In response to my question, Undine summoned old memories.

Pong pong.

Blue water droplets spread throughout the room.

I realized once again that spirits are also beings with rich emotions.

“I heard that he lived as a powerful ruler and then went into the arms of God, but that wasn’t true.”

“The Absolute is all like that. “The human world, the demon world, and the spirit world all have some differences, but many things are common.”

“okay… … .”

I had a long talk with Undine.

He was full of wisdom.

Living things that lived long were wise.

The hidden secrets of the continent, including the Great Emperor, that I was curious about.

Being able to talk to Wundain was a blessing.

Then, at some point, I fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.

After a long time, I fell into a comfortable and sweet dream… … .

***

“Count, eat a lot.”

The princess recommends it.

Always call him Count.

burden.

She woke up at dawn and cooked herself.

Is this what newlywed life feels like?

The princess’ bright eyes look at me, expecting evaluation.

I picked up a knife and fork.

Thick, slightly burnt steak.

Beef that you can’t go wrong with.

Put it in your mouth and savor the taste… … !

“!!!”

This is crazy!

salty!

The beef is not just salty; it looks like the meat has been showered in seawater for 3 days and 2 nights!

Plus, it’s spicy!

To the point where my tongue tingles.

Salted beef? Or poisoned?

The princess’s expectant eyes look at me as I put it in my mouth and savor it!

“Isn’t it delicious? “The Count usually likes spicy and salty food, so I added a little more pyrus and salt. Is that strange?”

Princess, this is… Even the dogs in the neighborhood shake their heads and shoo away… … .

I can’t bear to say it.

She held a frying pan for the first time in her life.

Munching… … .

I chewed it thoroughly.

When the saliva touches it, it becomes more salty and spicy.

I want to liberate my soul by reciting Buddhist scriptures.

however.

Juruk.

Tears flow.

This passionate reaction flows without me even realizing it.

“Why, why? “Isn’t it delicious?”

“ah… No. It was so delicious that I cried. “Big.”

My tongue is tingling.

Although the temptation to spit it out was strong.

I saw.

A small burn mark remained on her pretty hand.

gulp.

Swallowed!

A scene of human victory.

Even if your mouth is hell, your heart is heaven.

I am a happy man.

The princess of an alien empire who cooks for me.

Looking at her beautiful smile, I responded with laughter.

No matter what anyone says, this moment is happy.

Just like that, the seconds of happiness passed quickly.

As for the coming future… … .

I didn’t remember it at all.
