Became the Escort Knight That the Princesses Were Obsessed With

105. Eve (2)

Lydia approaches, stretching the tape measure.

Her unfocused red eyes were somehow eerie.

“I’m fine. “I will wait until the tailor comes.”

I tried my best to refuse, but the princess with pigtails came right in front of my nose.

“No, I have a meal scheduled with her father soon, so I don’t have time.”

Lydia pouted her lips.

“I’m fine, so just open your arms.”

I took a deep breath seeing her resolute appearance.

And then, she lightly opened her arms.

“I understand.”

As I obediently allowed myself to go, Lydia swallowed her saliva deeply.

Unlike how confident she was, she seemed nervous as she approached me.

‘Is measuring numbers something to be nervous about?’

I was wondering alone.

The princess stared at my body with her finger on her lips.

“Don’t you?”

When I asked her, she blinked her eyes, as if coming out of her delusion.

“Uh, yeah…. “Stay where you are.”

The princess first put her arms between my armpits.

Then, she began to carefully measure the circumference of her chest.

She wraps her arms around my chest as if I’m hugging her from behind.

She took a deep breath and calmly traced her body.

“Bird, it seems bigger than I thought.”

“It has improved since the appointment ceremony.”

Because she trained her body from time to time to stabilize her strength from her previous life.

‘It’s still a long way from reaching that level, but….’

The princess’s chest slowly touched my back.

She wrapped her arms carefully.

“Well, it’s still not enough compared to my knights.”

“hahahaha, that’s right. “Those friends were inherently different in something.”

I responded leisurely to Lydia’s blunt words.

Then, the princess quietly pressed her cheek to my wing bone and muttered.

“But what…. I actually like it because it fits my body perfectly.”

I felt something soft being pressed against my back.

“Yes… ?”

When I asked again, the princess leaned back and spoke.

“No. “Now let me measure her waist.”

The princess said it was no big deal and looked away.

Then, she slowly traced my sides with both hands.

I can feel her hands on both sides of my pelvis.

“….”

Her lips were slightly parted.

The princess took a shallow breath and wrapped the tape measure around her waist.

The princess’s hand movements were clumsy, as if it was her first time putting her hand on a man’s waist.

I felt around my body and re-measured several times.

Unlike when her breasts were measured, the princess’s speaking volume has decreased significantly.

I thought her appearance was strange and glanced down at Lydia.

‘I think her face is red… ?’

Especially the ears that are slightly visible through her hair.

Maybe it was because of the weight of the earrings, but they turned quite red.

I was thinking about that.

The princess stopped when she saw my thighs.

“Woah, I guess I should measure here too… ?”

“Yes, you have to measure to cut pants.”

I said without thinking.

However, Lydia’s face heated up to the point that she hiccuped.

“Okay…. Let’s take a look.”

The youngest princess slowly bent her knees.

A strange situation where the royal family kneels in front of commoners.

However, Lydia was too distracted to even recognize that fact.

I can only stare at my thighs.

She slowly extended her arm and put it between my legs.

Her trembling hands wrapped around my thighs.

Afterwards, I started measuring with a tape measure….

The princess checked her readings and her eyes widened.

“Your legs are quite strong….”

“Is that so?”

The princess glanced at her thighs and carefully removed her hand from between her legs.

“Okay. “The body is definitely more agile than our knights, and the legs are of similar thickness.”

Lydia wriggled her hands.

“It’s faster to run with mana wrapped around your legs than to ride a carriage.”

“Yeah, right…” . “Walking is good for your body, so try to run on both feet from now on.”

The princess said something strange without realizing it.

Then, she staggered and got her body up.

After that, the princess didn’t tease me anymore.

I just kept her mouth shut and recorded my body measurements on the table.

“You’ve waited a long time.”

Meanwhile, the tailor came out of the workshop.

When she saw the princess blushing, she was concerned that she had come out too late.

“No, the princess took her measurements.”

I kindly pointed towards the princess for the tailor.

Then, Lydia slowly nodded her head.

“Okay… All you have to do is knit her clothes according to the numbers written here. Because I checked properly….”

The tailor picked up the ticket.

And, as befits the most talented person in the empire, he quickly adjusted to his suit.

I changed the clothes I received in the locker room.

The outerwear was a black jacket, but the material was very soft and luxurious.

The dress shirt I wore underneath fit my body perfectly.

‘It’s amazing, you measured such accurate numbers.’

“Now, all you have to do is choose a tie.”

The tailor tried to guide me by pointing to the display stand.

But, at that moment.

Lydia slipped in between the tailor and me.

“No, I prepared the tie in advance.”

‘When did you choose it?’

The youngest princess took out a black tie.

Then, turning her head, she handed it to her calmly.

A golden embroidery unique to the East is engraved on a black background.

In addition, there was a pin with a leopard symbolizing Lydia on it.

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

I wore my tie with a lot of enthusiasm.

And, the moment when you are about to leave the cutting room.

The princess blocked her exit.

“Stop for a moment.”

“Is there any problem?”

Lydia pointed with her finger at the tie I wore on her.

“We in the East are not allowed to wear a tie like that.”

“Then what should I do?”

I asked with a shocked expression.

Then, Lydia approached me as if she was frustrated….

“It’s a good idea to hit the chilchil. Give it to me. I will tie it myself….”

Unlike when measuring her clothes, she casually placed her hand on her tie.

Then, she muttered to herself and began to beat again with her skillful skills.

“Who else would take care of a man like you if not me? ?”

She even tied her neck properly.

She looked up at me with her naughty eye smile.

“Know that it is an honor. “Because the main woman is giving it to her herself.”

The tailor watched us intently.

Covering her lips with her hand.

“….”

I raised the corner of her mouth.

And, as was her habit, I almost patted Lydia as she tied her tie.

‘If you do that, you’ll get angry… ?’

I expressed my gratitude to her on her behalf.

“Thank you, Your Majesty. “It is because of Your Majesty’s kind heart that the Eastern Knights became strong.”

“Of course, I didn’t give you any special treatment.”

After the princess tied her tie, she hurriedly turned around.

The tailor stared at her back.

Lydia looked like this was her first time acting like this.

The princess turned behind her and took out her wallet.

And, she was going to pay the price straight to the tailor.

“Oh, no… Her Royal Highness. “I am infinitely grateful for your visit.”

“That’s it. “I have received a lot of gratitude from you today, so consider it a golden day.”

The youngest princess gave over 50 gold to the tailor.

When she saw that, I made an awkward expression.

‘I feel like I’m just receiving too much.’

If you only accumulate grace like this, you may find yourself in a difficult situation.

I approached the display stand alone.

Then, I looked down at the sparkling women’s accessories.

“What are you looking at like that?”

After finishing her calculations, the princess came next to me.

“Oh, I was just watching.”

“Why are you looking at precious metals that don’t suit you?”

The princess looked at her jewelry with her back to her.

Then, when he heard my answer, his expression hardened.

“Of course it’s not what I’m going to do.”

When Lydia realized she was a gift for someone, she looked up at me.

I left her behind and picked up one of her tie pins with her red bow on them.

Then I asked the tailor for the price.

“How much is this?”

“Ah, since you are an imperial knight, you get a discount of 15 gold.”

’15 Gold… ! In an era where a meal for nobles costs 1 gold….’

Lydia looks at my shocked face after hearing the price.

The corners of my mouth went up wide at the sight of me not being able to buy someone a gift.

“Ha, did you think you could afford such an excessive amount of money for your living expenses?”

The princess sneered, covering her lips with her fist.

But….

“Okay, give me one.”

Despite her reaction, I persevered and purchased the butterfly pin.

Then, the princess followed me while paying with a puzzled expression.

“Who are you going to such lengths to give it to?”

She disapproves of me spending a lot of money on gifts.

She looked at me coldly with unfocused red eyes.

“Oh, you mean this?”

I put a smile on my face.

And, I told the tailor that there was no need for packaging.

“That’s right….”

Because the person I want to give a gift to is right next to me.

“It’s a gift to the princess.”

Picked up the pin.

And, he personally attached it to the tie that was placed on the princess’s chest.

“… !”

Lydia’s whole body stopped as she saw me getting closer.

She just looks up at me with her red eyes.

“I felt like I had been receiving too much, so I wanted to give you a gift too.”

Feeling burdened by her gaze, I scratched the side of her head.

“Unlike the princess, I don’t have eyes for this kind of thing. So, I just chose the one that seemed to suit my eyes…. “

I looked down at Lydia.

And, she said with a grin.

“I hope you like it.”

The princess slowly lowered her head.

Then, she glanced down at a butterfly sitting on her own tie.

“It’s the same color as my eyes…” .”

Her pigtails were bent down to look at the pin.

For some reason, I felt like I was trembling slightly.

“Are you okay?”

I lowered my head to try to catch a glimpse of her expression.

Then, the princess turned her gaze and hid her bright eyes.

“It’s stupid…” .”

The youngest princess muttered in a trembling voice.

“Do you think something like this would catch my eye when I have accumulated all the wealth of the East?”

As expected, Lydia was known for being fierce.

I smiled bitterly at her cold reaction.

“Of course it is, right? Sorry, hahahaha….”

I answered awkwardly, stroking the back of her neck.

But.

When I saw the princess’s eyes as she raised her head, I realized something.

“Still….”

She seemed embarrassed, avoiding her gaze.

She said, gently covering her lips with her tie.

“Of all the gifts I’ve received recently, this is the best….”

Her lips covered by a tie.

A red butterfly sat on it.

I stared at that figure blankly.

She was the third princess who until now thought she was just childish.

Because it was the first time I felt her feminine beauty.

“Thank you, Bale Mikhail.”

The princess smiled brightly.

However, the smile he showed this time was different from before.

“I will cherish this butterfly you gave me.”

Unlike when he first saw me, he looked very mature.

She is like any other lady.

“I’m glad you are satisfied.”

We left the cutting room together.

And then, we reached the darkened heavenly palace hallway.

“Where are you going now?”

“My father suggested dinner at 8 o’clock.”

Her youngest princess pointed to a hill with her finger.

It was the highest villa in the imperial palace.

“We are planning to have a dinner together there.”

My arms are starting to move.

Shall we see how well she learned?

“I will guide you to the entrance.”

“Okay, thank you.”

We headed to the villa together.

And then, we parted ways in front of the entrance.

“I hope you have a good time.”

The princess responded with a faint smile.

Afterwards, she entered the gate guarded by the imperial knights.

‘Ha… , it was a long day.’

I sat alone in the hallway of the villa.

And then, looking down at the view of the heavenly palace, I waited for the father and daughter’s story.

「It’s been a while, Lydia.」

The magnificent voice of the emperor is heard from the villa.

However, no matter how I looked at it, it did not feel like treating my lovely daughter.

‘If anyone hears it, they will think they are going to trial… !’

“See you Abama.”

Lydia’s voice was trembling as expected.

She seems quite nervous about seeing her father after several years.

「Okay, please take a seat.」

The emperor spoke in a noble voice.

As if trying to continue the conversation somehow.

“….”

But.

That was all the conversation between the two had.

After that, the only sound between them was the sound of forks and knives.

There was only awkward silence.

‘I’m going crazy…’ !’

Even I, listening from afar, can’t breathe.

I taught you as much as I could, but I wonder what His Majesty was thinking….

Thinking about that, I took a deep breath.

Then, at that moment.

The emperor broke the silence and opened his mouth.

「You’re dressed beautifully.」

It was clearly a word thrown out indifferently.

But, I knew.

Bodouin IV showed great courage.

“Thank you….”

Lydia sounded embarrassed, perhaps because she thought her father’s praise was unexpected.

「Unlike the dresses that were always uncomfortable, this look is quite nice.」

“Yes, this is an outfit recommended by a friend.”

Conversation began to bloom naturally.

Only then did I close my eyes and make a satisfied expression.

‘Was it a needless worry?’

After all, an emperor is an emperor.

「Really? “You really have a good friend.”

“Yes, I will introduce you sometime.”

‘Yes… ? ‘Wait a minute, introduction?’

My eyebrows twitched as I listened.

However, I decided to skip it for now.

「I was worried that he would grow up violently while I wasn’t able to see him. Fortunately, she became a pretty lady.”

The emperor was concerned that Lydia, who wanted to become a monarch, would grow up to be like her man.

He praised her youngest daughter in a relieved voice.

“It’s still not enough.”

Lydia’s shy voice is heard.

It seems she liked her father’s praise.

「Now it’s to the point where we can start getting married.」

“Are you talking about marriage…? .”

At those words, Lydia hesitated in her answer for a moment.

Then, she opened her mouth in a feminine voice.

“Please don’t worry about that.”

The princess’s shy smile is pictured in her mind.

That moment.

“I will bring someone suitable someday.”

Something gave me goosebumps on my back.

「Yes, I have high expectations. “If you have great insight, he must be a ‘great’ guy!”

The loud voice of a laughing lion was heard outside the villa.

Perhaps he was thinking of an outstanding prince or war hero from a foreign country.
