Chapter 152 – Kiella’s SOS, Iril’s Decision

“What? Fine also became Dake’s lover?”

The evening after the three of us spent the night.
In an empty room in the royal castle, Rize asked that question.

She had just heard that my relationship with Fine had changed.

“…Yes. I should have asked Rize for permission first. I’m sorry.”

After my sincere apology, Agnes, who was standing next to me, spoke.

“Neither Dake nor Fine were confident in their minds, so I persuaded them.”

“I see…”

“I’m sorry, vice-captain…”

Fine’s creeping voice.
He seemed to notice because he belatedly took a seat next to me.

“Fine, it’s okay if you don’t apologize. Lise and I promised that if Dake brought a new lover, we would welcome him warmly.”

Fine and I asked Agnes’ unexpected words in succession.

“Huh? Really?”

“Are you sure, Captain?”

“Come to think of it, I forgot to mention it. Isn’t there a saying among humans that a hero shows his side to a woman? Dake is also a hero who saved the kingdom, and considering his usual appearance, we thought it wouldn’t be strange if he took another lover. “I decided to love even the noodles.”

‘What do you think I usually look like?’

“Lise, am I right?”

“…Yes. That’s right, Captain.”

There was a reason why Agnes was confident that if she were Rize, she would accept Fine.

If I had told her in advance without forgetting, I wouldn’t have had to worry about what to say to Rize.

However, despite her promise to welcome me, Rize’s face was not very bright.

“Rize, are you okay? You don’t look good…”

“Huh? No, it’s okay. I was a bit surprised because I never thought that Fine would become Dake’s lover.”

I completely agree with that statement.
I also thought it was nonsense until last night.

As I was thinking that, Fine came closer to me and spoke in an embarrassed voice.

“I didn’t know it would end up like this, but yesterday I did a lot of lover-like things with my senior. Hehe.”

“Wow, that’s something you would do as a lover…”

Rize looked at my crotch and Fine’s lower abdomen with serious eyes.

“That big thing… Does it all fit in that small place?”

“Uh… It all went in, haha…”

She was so embarrassed that she added an awkward laugh at the end of her sentence.

Rize was unable to hide her surprise and belatedly conveyed her words to Fine.

“I guess I’ve been treating Fine like a child too much all this time. She’s only lent me her books so far, but let’s get to know her better from now on. Please take care of her.”

“Yes, vice-captain! Please take care of me too!”

A bright smile spreads across Fine’s face along with a loud voice.

Agnes and I both had happy smiles on our faces as we looked at it.

Thanks to the disappearance of the demon king who dreamed of resurrection and the gatekeeper who had brought the demons to Elora, the elf kingdom entered a more peaceful time than ever.

Of course, the Knights continued to exist because there was a possibility that a new crisis would arise, but the people all enjoyed a relaxed and stable atmosphere.

Meanwhile, there were some who were as faithful to their task as the Knights.

It was her queen, Ailil, and her entourage who assisted her.

Ayril led the kingdom with the help of Dake, his lovers, and her mother, her former queen.

She carried the weight of her crown from an early age, but as a result of devoting herself to caring for her people, she soon became completely accustomed to her duties and her kingdom was able to fully accept her new queen. .

Thanks to this, these days, when she has some psychological comfort, a new worry arises for the Queen.

“Kiella! Please listen to me!”

One night when the moon was rising, Iril, who came to the Supreme Court Justice’s room without warning, sat down on the bed and shouted, and Kiella responded.

“…What is it?”

Kiella’s expression was not very pleasant.
According to my experience so far, on days when Ilil came to visit me like this, I had to give up my sleep to listen to her.

On the other hand, the boss who came without an invitation had a very serious look on his face.

“When on earth is Dake going to confess to me?”

“…Yes?”

Out of sudden concern, Kiella asked again.

“Did you say you’re confessing to the Queen?”

“That’s not true. Think about it, Kiella. If you count past lives, me and Dike have known each other for quite some time, right? In human terms, of course.”

“Yes, well. From a human perspective, it would be like that.”

“And we spend the night together regularly. Doesn’t that mean we’re already lovers? But I don’t get the feeling that Dake is going to confess at all.”

In fact, even though Ilil had not shown anything so far, Kiella had expected to some extent that she felt her affection for Dake.

There’s no way an elf with a serious personality like Iril would get along with someone who doesn’t have any emotions.

But I only guessed that she was hiding her feelings because she was embarrassed, but I didn’t know that she was so eagerly waiting for Dike’s confession.

“Isn’t it true that not everyone who mixes bodies becomes a lover? In fact, Dake is having sex with other elves besides me and the queen.”

“Well, that’s…”

The child, Lil, who has nothing to say, looks at her floor.

Of course, unlike Iril, Kiella knew that Dake was dating the leader and vice-leader of the Knights.
Not only that, she had also heard from him that the youngest member of the knights had joined the ranks of her lovers.

Nevertheless, the reason I said that was because I wanted to give you advice that you shouldn’t just wait for a confession because just being physically intimate doesn’t mean you will become a lover.

“But! How gentle Dake is in bed. He gets rough like an animal when he’s excited, but… Ah, that doesn’t mean I don’t like it, I actually like it! Ah, that’s not what I was trying to say, so…”

The gibbering child, Lil, spoke with her sparkling eyes.

“I can’t say for sure, but I feel something special in Dayke’s eyes when he looks at me! Something deeper and hotter than when he looks at other elves!”

Kiella was sure.
Dake’s kindness is not uncommon, and the young queen is only mistaken because of her tightly wrapped bean pod.

That’s not to say that Dake didn’t have any feelings for Ilil, but it was clear that, as he just said, waiting wouldn’t change anything.

“If you feel that Dake likes you, why don’t you confess first, Queen?”

Iril waved her hand at the Supreme Court Justice’s suggestion.

“Oh, how can you do that! I’ve never confessed to you in my life… I’m probably going to burst my heart without even being able to say a single word properly.”

“Ah… Is that so?”

She is not another elf, and the Queen herself said it would be difficult for her to do so, but it was a bit difficult for Kiella to continue to encourage her.

“Then I guess you’ll have no choice but to wait.”

She concluded that the queen would return and she could go to sleep herself.

Kiella’s thoughts were mistaken.

“Kiella, when do you think Dake will confess? Seeing as he’s become sweeter these days, I think…”

“Ah…”

“Now that I think about it, last time, Dake…”

“Hmm…”

“Isn’t this a sign that the time is right around the corner? Ah, but now that I think about it…”

A story that goes on and on, seemingly never ending.
In the end, Kiella’s ominous premonition was confirmed when Ayril came to her room, and she was forced to listen to the queen’s worries all night.

Unfortunately, Iril’s counseling did not end that day.

Although she holds the position of queen, she is still the same age as a girl.
For a girl of that age, worrying about relationships was as important as her country’s affairs, so she visited Kiella every night.

“I almost fell in the hallway in the afternoon, but Dake, who was walking with me, caught me. I guess that means he’s been watching me all the time, right? I guess he’s not far away from confessing after all!”

“I had high expectations because Dayke said he had something important to talk about today. But it turned out that it was about the cabinet meeting that day. To be honest, he was a little disappointed, but it was nice to see him working hard to help me.”

“I guess it’s almost time, but there’s no sign of anything from Dayk yet. But I won’t give up!”

“Kiella… When will Dayk confess? He will, right…?”

Iril is getting tired of waiting as the days go by.
However, seeing the queen’s restlessness, Kiella, who could not bear to refuse her advice, became increasingly tired.

Because she was unable to relieve the fatigue of her work as a Supreme Court Justice in time, dark circles appeared around her once-white eyes.

So when Dake was left alone with her in her conference room, he couldn’t help but be concerned by her worried expression.

“Kiella, you seem to be having a hard time these days. What’s going on?”

“…”

When she tries to answer, she hesitates to move her lips.
This is because she was hesitant about whether it would be okay to reveal her concerns without Ilil’s consent.

However, if things continued like this, before Dike and Iril got together, he felt like he would collapse from exhaustion first.

“Kiella?”

Dake’s call felt like something was out of the ordinary.
Eventually, Kiella decided to send him her rescue signal.

“Dake… Please save me.”

—

The night Kiella sent an SOS to Dake.
Iril was lost in her thoughts in her own bedroom.

The fact that she, who used to visit Kiella and chatter with her at this time, is here means that there has been a change in her state of mind.

In fact, Iril, who was getting tired of the endless waiting, had a face that seemed to have made a decision, unlike before.

‘Okay… She can’t just wait forever.’

She recalled what Kiella had said to her earlier.
The advice is that if you are sure about Dake’s liking, you should confess it first.

I had been putting it off until now because I didn’t have the courage, but now I wanted to put an end to this waiting.

‘I can’t wait patiently any longer! I feel sorry for Kiella because I keep visiting her…’

Finally making up her mind, the young queen clenched her small fists and strengthened her will even more.

‘I’ll somehow get Dake’s confession tomorrow!’
