The Fiancee Who Betrayed Me Is Obsessed With Me

58 – Preparation (3)

The banquet went smoothly.

It was initially said to be an event commemorating the establishment of Magic Tower.

It was an event that was supposed to be dominated by wizards, but they did not show up very often, so even though it was an important event, the banquet hall was not full.

Most of them were nobles of the empire and heads of state of friendly countries of the empire.

Among them, Yuuna, the royal family of the Kingdom of Helia, was a slightly alien being.

“… That’s boring. “I don’t think there’s any need to stay for long.”

“yes. I think it was the magic tower lord’s will that invited the princess directly. “I think it will be enough to light a face at a banquet.”

“Of course.”

Tingling-

“Beryl. “Don’t think about others in the banquet hall and just follow me.”

“I didn’t mean to do that, but… ”

“Do not lie. “I saw him look in the direction of the princess several times.”

“You misunderstand. “It’s a misunderstanding.”

Yuna had been in a bad mood ever since she met the first princess.

Is it because she is very possessive? He seemed very angry just because someone had touched something that was his.

“… “I will take you there.”

No one can control her mood anyway.

I just followed her, prepared to get slapped by her at any time.

***

The past year has been the most hectic time of Yuna’s life.

In order to take the throne, he had to wear a mask and deal with numerous nobles, and he also had to make a lot of preparations to establish the Magic Tower.

At some point, Yuuna grew in size to the point where she could no longer compete for the first throne.

Duke Ceramide’s help was great, and the influence of the wizard group led by Eric was also great.

There was a lot of help before Yuna took the throne, but in the end, it was always Beryl that Yuuna looked for in the end.

Maybe if it weren’t for him, Yuna wouldn’t have changed like this.

She is still an evil woman who kills people mercilessly. Politically, she may not be like that, but she may not have the appearance of a military leader.

At some point, Yuna was relying on Beryl. Although I wasn’t aware of it myself.

“joy… !”

After returning to the room, Yuna nervously threw away her clothes.

I do it all the time, but the cumbersome accessories were uncomfortable. For her, just wearing a dress was her limit.

However, he did not take off the necklace he received as a gift from Beryl. You had to have this on you at all times.

He was a man who had nothing to like.

Aside from being an escort driver, I also didn’t like the idea of going out and meeting Syrians.

The Duke liked Syria being treated, so he couldn’t stop him, but deep down he still didn’t like it.

It was a time I couldn’t spend. Yuna always interacted with Beryl in a business-like manner, and in front of Yuuna, Beryl always gave only mechanical answers.

It was something a knight should naturally look like, but for some reason, Yuuna felt bad. I feel like I’m drawing a line only for myself.

And although we’ve become distant recently, I also don’t like the female knight named Lia.

He was quiet for a while, but there was also an eyewitness report that he recently used his sick leave for the female knight and brought her into his room.

I couldn’t figure out what they were planning with the enemy camp’s escort knight.

‘I said it was an article just for me… ‘

What do you mean by all those harsh words you said when you first met?

As time passed, Yuuna’s dissatisfaction grew with his increasingly business-like attitude.

In fact, if it were normal, she wouldn’t have paid any attention.

She didn’t realize that her attitude was going back to when she was young, before she lost Ben.

Ugh-

Yuuna nervously activated the necklace.

I felt even worse today. It was because of the princess’s work.

I felt like I needed some teasing to feel better. Yuna sat on the bed, shaking her legs, and waited for him.

smart

-Princess. This is Beryl.

“Come on in.”

Less than a minute later, Beryl knocked on Yuna’s door.

Considering the distance between Yuuna’s room and Beryl’s room, the speed was ridiculously fast.

“… “Are you okay?”

“I guess I activated the necklace by mistake. sorry.”

Actually, I had no intention of calling it. I just wanted to pick on him.

This didn’t happen once or twice, but Beryl always appeared in the shortest amount of time.

Beryl knew that it was a lie that she had accidentally tampered with the necklace. Because in the first place, it only worked when magic power was running.

“… “I will leave.”

Beryl sighed and closed the door and tried to leave.

“Wait.”

However, Yuuna called him out differently than usual.

Normally, I would have had to send it back and pick it again with the necklace about 10 times, but this time, I let it into the room right away.

“… “At least have something to say.”

Beryl closed the door, went inside, and stood in front of Yuna.

“Sit.”

And then, as Yuna had commanded, he sat down straight away.

“… ?”

Yuna actually made Beryl sit down, but she didn’t have anything to say.

I just felt sad about breaking up with him.

“Can’t you sleep?”

“Well, it’s not like that. “What do you think about the empire’s attitude this time?”

Yuuna doesn’t want her feelings to be revealed, so she asks about what happened today.

Maybe it was Yuna’s habit that made her always talk to him in a business-like manner.

“… I don’t think it’s bad. In my opinion, the Empire seems to think that even if a war with Helya were to break out, they would be far superior if the wizards did not participate. Perhaps that is why I wanted to prevent them from sending them into battle while the Magic Tower was not yet built and the wizards under Eric were not affiliated.”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s kind of like a warning. If you plan on fighting them, leave out the wizards. Well, in fact, if the Imperial Magic Tower participates in the war, of course the West will collapse in an instant.”

As Beryl said, the reason the West has not been eaten by the empire is because wizards do not intervene in the war at all.

In the first place, they have no intention of fighting. What was important to wizards was not war.

“Well, I guess so.”

The power of the empire is absolute. But wizards don’t fight.

In that sense, the existence of Yuna was alien.

A wizard with the greatest talent who dreams of becoming the monarch of a country. If she used magic and started a war, the balance could be broken.

Of course, Yuuna alone could have been stopped with the Empire’s technological capabilities, but if the magicians currently on Eric’s side also stepped forward, the Empire’s Magic Tower could have stepped forward.

That was the reason why the magic tower lord asked Yuuna to meet him.

To warn you as a wizard not to destroy the balance.

“… Well, I have no intention of fighting right now.”

“It might be a good thing for us. “If the Empire had planned to cut it off before it could grow, a war might have broken out right away.”

Beryl always had insight in unexpected places. He was incredibly knowledgeable about politics, considering he was a commoner orphan.

Yuna had often received help from his opinions.

“As expected, the empire is still a long way off. “I didn’t have any intention of being hostile.”

Unlike the first prince or the current king, Yuuna did not have much intention to expand his territory.

It was just a usurpation of the throne that started out of hatred.

“… Then I’ll just leave. “Have a good night.”

Beryl, thinking the story was over, tried to get up.

“Now, wait a minute.”

However, Yuuna made him sit back down. For some reason, I didn’t want to send him away today.

“Hey, how is Syria these days?”

“The princess… It’s holding up pretty well. “It’s been almost four months now.”

Although there have been many ups and downs over the past year, treatment in Syria has been getting better.

I often began to engage in social activities, and my dependence on medication was greatly reduced.

Of course, compensation was still provided through Beryl.

It’s not reliable, but if the therapist says so, there may be a way to gradually reduce the reward.

“Still… Are you continuing to do this every month?”

It was Yuuna who had seen the treatment process in the past.

I also knew that if I held back for a month, he would kiss me.

I was shocked, but the therapist said so. And he had no right to stop it.

But when I thought about the two of them kissing, I was in such a bad mood that I was violent all day long.

“… yes.”

“… under.”

Recently, it meant that we had kissed for four months in a row.

When I remembered that fact, I felt angry again.

“How long do I have to continue the treatment that went out of schedule?”

“maybe… I think it will end soon. “The princess’s condition is getting better.”

“Then once the treatment is over, you won’t have to see that b*tch anymore.”

“well. “I think something bigger might be waiting after that.”

“yes?”

“We decided to get married once the princess stops taking medicine. “I think we need to address that.”

“… ah.”

Now that I think about it, it was like that. The reason I started treatment was because Syria insisted that she wanted to marry Beryl.

Thinking about it now, it was absurd. At the time, I intended to refuse, but put a condition on quitting the medication, but now I see that they were helping me quit.

“Are you saying you want to marry Syria?”

“That’s not it… I thought it would help in many ways if the princess stopped taking medicine. And I think that when he stops taking the medication and comes back to his senses, he will retract the story about his marriage. “That’s what I said when I was out of my mind.”

It made sense, but for some reason, Yuna felt upset.

“However, considering various circumstances, I think it is okay to get married. It’s not that I don’t trust the Ceramide family, but it would be good to have at least a safety device. “Isn’t this a family with such a past?”

“still… That’s not possible. I guess I told you not to say that?”

Yuna answered nervously.

Although Ceramide had a history of betraying Regius in the past, he did not want Beryl to marry Syria.

“No way. Are you crazy?”

“That’s not it… ”

Beryl narrowed her eyes and looked at Yuna in silence.

And remained silent for a moment. Yuna started to feel nervous for some reason under his gaze.

“Princess, maybe… ”

“Well, something.”

“Are you jealous?”

“Yes, yes?”

Then he brought a chair and sat down in front of Yuna.

As the distance became closer in an instant, Yuna unconsciously put her hands on her chest and pulled her body back.

But I didn’t avoid him.

“It looks exactly like that to me. “Marriage with a duke is completely pointless from the princess’s perspective.”

“W-what nonsense? “I just don’t like the sight of Syria.”

“Then why do you always offer to accompany me to counseling? “Isn’t this especially true on days when compensation has to be given?”

“Well, that’s because I don’t know what that crazy b*tch will do. “I hope you don’t get me wrong.”

“Is that so?”

Beryl leaned closer to Yuna little by little.

The distance between the two was getting closer. It meant that Yuna didn’t bother to avoid it.

As the distance got closer, Yuna’s heart beat faster.

“Well, something. Whatever you say… ”

Before I knew it, Beryl was right in front of me. And he was staring at himself.

Yuna turned her head for no reason. I couldn’t look at him any longer because my heart felt like it was going to explode.

However, Beryl grabbed Yuna’s chin and returned her gaze to herself.

Normally, this would have made him angry because it was rude, but Yuuna just looked up at him with an idiotic expression. My body didn’t move.

No, rather, I wanted this time to last.

“kiss… “Do you want to do it, princess?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Yes, yes, yes? W-what… “Are you suddenly talking nonsense?”

“It seems like you want that.”

“What shamelessness… !”

It was nonsense without context. Is there an escort driver who suddenly runs up to his owner and asks to kiss him?

However, Yuna’s reaction to his improbable remark was different from usual.

The flow of the conversation alone was such nonsense, but the desire deep in Yuna’s heart, which even Yuna was not aware of, was touched.

Although it seemed like a foolish statement on the surface, it actually hit the nail on the head.

“If you say no, I will never do something like this again. No matter what happens, I will keep the good.”

“… … .“

Normally, he never crosses the line.

But today, as if he had decided to cross the line, he approached Yuna with a provocative look in his eyes.

I have a feeling that if I reject this moment, something like this will never happen again.

Rationally, she should have refused, but Yuna’s lips did not move.

I couldn’t say anything and just looked at Beryl’s angular face with trembling eyes.

“allow… “I understand you did.”

“W-what… !”

After there was no word for a while, Beryl started to approach on her own.

Yuuna belatedly started pushing his hard chest, but it was no use.

Beryl had no intention of stopping, and Yuna’s hand pushing him away actually had no strength at all.

“… !”

The two people’s breath touches each other clearly, as if time has slowed down.

Very slowly, the two touched each other’s lips.
