Chapter 391: Stormy Person

So the Brave already went back?

Yes, his business here is done.

He is as free spirit as always.

I dont think that Lize-aneue will lose to him in that department though

Casually having tea in my office while I work should count as being a free spirit right.

I want to say that she is disturbing my work but since I dont know what will happen if I do that, I choose to keep my mouth shut.

Lizelotte-sama. The sweets are ready!

Umu, I will have some.

She casually let Finne bake the sweets and eat more than half of it herself.

There are only some pitiful leftovers coming my way.

Aneue..dont you have anything to do?

No.

It is unusual for her to say that she is free like this.

Well, she is the general in charge of the invasion after all. The time for her work will be after we launch it.

I understand that she will be more or less free until then but.

Is it okay not to train the knights for the invasion? I think that they are quite different from your subordinates though.

Its fine since someone who knows me even better than myself is already training them.

Ahh, I see.

So Duke Reinfeld is in charge of the training?

If its that person, he would know how the knights should move to work well with Lize-aneue.

That is what he is probably teaching the knights he brought.

The right person in the right place. He will definitely do a better job than Aneue in this field.

If Aneue trains them herself then some of them might become unable to fight even before the invasion begins after all.

Al. Your hands stopped you know? Work properly will you.

yes.

What is this.

This unreasonableness.

But I cant go against it.

Since I had no other choice, I moved my eyes back to the paperwork and started moving my hand again.

There are many documents that I have to check myself.

And I have those brought to my office.

Al, this is the document for the dwarves settlement. I also included the list of nobles that are likely to accept them too.

Good grief.

Do you need help?

Char, who brought the documents to me, had a bitter smile when she saw my face.

I nodded to Chars offer.

It cant be helped then.

Check these out with Finne for me.

Okay. Finne can take care of this, and I will take care of this one.

Yes!

After such a conversation, Finne and Char started working at the desk in the corner of the room.

Meanwhile, Elna stood beside me without saying anything.

Arent you acting strange today? Elna.

What do you mean? Lizelotte-sama.

You seem to be quite devoted to escorting Al today?

I am his escort after all.

I will not add anything extra here.

Being told that by Elna, Lize-aneues eyes went round.

It seems that after being taught various things by the Brave, Elnas way of thinking has changed.

It would have been easier if you act like this from the beginning though?

Right. How about you focus on your job too?

Elna replies without even glancing at Char.

Her response implied that she is doing her job properly.

Now, Char cant add any extra comments.

Perhaps realizing that, Char focuses on her own work with a frown on her face.

Seeing that, Elnas expression looks like she just accomplished something.

Even if she fixed her attitude on the surface, Elna is still Elna huh.

Elna. You received guidance from the Brave right?

Yes, I was able to learn a lot of things.

Seems like it was a good guidance huh.

Saying so, Lize-aneue nodded to herself.

Then.

By the way, Al.

Yes?

It seems that Leo wants to marry the Saint right? What about you?

..yes?

The atmosphere suddenly tensed up.

The topic of who I will take as my wife is a troublesome one but if we really get into that topic, we will inevitably arrive at the topic of who will be Aneues husband.

What to do?

Should I touch it?

Should I just let it slide?

Words are spinning around inside my head.

Then, Finne took over and asked Lize-aneue a question.

W, What about you, Lizelotte-sama?

I am not talking about me though?

Well, a younger brother marrying before his elder sister is a little.

Dont worry. I will eventually marry Jurgen.

My mind was blown for a moment.

I was about to fall off my chair but Elna supported me from the side in time.

What did she just say?

Marrying?

The person that Father has been trying to rush into marriage all this time but ignored all his attempts?

Besides, its Duke Reinfeld!?

How!?

..If I hear it correctly.?

Eventually. Well, if Jurgen still doesnt give up until then that is.

I dont think that there is a need to worry about thatRather, why did you suddenly change your mind.?

people I knew well died off one after another after all. I dont know how long I have left myself. So I thought that it would be nice to accept the proposal from the person who never gives up on me.

Please dont say such a thing

What? You should be happier about this.

Its hard to be happy because of your reasonthat aside, what do you mean by eventually?

It will be within a few years. Until then, I will continue to be friends with Jurgen. I surprisingly enjoy this kind of relationship after all.

Is that sowell, as someone who supports him, Im happy for you two. Congratulation.

Saying so, I tried to conclude the topic.

My trump card.

I cant possibly marry before Aneue is no longer usable after all.

However.

So, what about you?

.

You and Leo always do things together. Father is probably thinking about announcing your engagements at the same time. The reputation of the Black Twin Prince has been growing day by day after all.

..I and Leo are similar but I am different from him.

Solidifying your position here should benefit Leo in the succession war right?

I have no intention of marrying anyone, at least for the time being.

Even so, the talk will come up regardless of your will. The Dominion has a princess. If we want her to rule it afterward, we should join their blood with ours. Make no mistake, the Prime Minister and other nobles will surely tell you to marry her. Ah, this one is Jurgens prediction so it is very likely that this will be the case.

Thank you for your concern but..if we are talking about princes then there are still others.

I see. If you have someone that you are interested in then make sure to tell that to Father. He will not force you if he knows.

No, Im fine.

Lize-aneue smiled at my reply and drank her tea.

She then got up from the sofa she was sitting on.

Well, fine. If you are forced into it then escape to the eastern border. I will hide you.

I will do that. Once this succession war is over, Id like to live a life free of power struggles after all.

You think that is allowed to you?

Saying so, Aneue left the room with a laugh.

Seriously, this person is truly like a storm.

Saying whatever she wants and just left.

What a troublesome person.

I bet my freedom for the northern aristocrats.

If Father really wanted me to marry the princess of the Dominion then I have no choice but to obey.

I am different from Aneue.

I have my wish to make Leo an emperor.

And I will do anything to achieve that wish.

I want to avoid it if possible though.

Thinking so, I continue doing my work in the now silent room.
