1. Queen, you have your day too? (At the beginning of the month, asking for monthly tickets~)
By the time Kephiel and I set off to explain to Queen Louise IV about our experiences in the Kingdom of Prussia and the Austro-Hungarian tribe, it was already the next day.
Unlike the painful mental preparations I had to endure before each meeting with the queen, this time, I don’t know about Kephiel, but I was absolutely relaxed, joyful, and at ease when going to see the queen. After all…
On the night when Kephiel and I quietly returned from the Kingdom of Prussia, perhaps because Kephiel’s worries for me could no longer be concealed, or perhaps due to my selfishness towards Kephiel, I was tormented by the urge to confess to her no matter what…
In the end, after we both revealed our true thoughts to each other, and after realizing that we had both thought of each other as “too pure,” our thoughts, which might not have been so “clean,” were free from distractions; or perhaps it was because the atmosphere at that moment was so smooth; or maybe… we were just dazzled by the moonlight outside the window…
We finally completed the last step as betrothed partners, and then, the next day, the classic “aftermath” scene unfolded. However, before we could enjoy that lingering moment, should I say, truly worthy of being Kephiel’s father? The moment we stepped out of the room, Uncle Zerola, still in his big shorts and flip-flops, seemed to have “activated his radar,” staring at us for a few seconds before running back into the room, grabbing the bed sheets in a pile, and then running out with them held high above his head, utterly lacking in decorum!
“Wife! It’s done! It’s done!”
We couldn’t stay here any longer.
This was the unspoken thought shared between Kephiel and me, and one of the reasons we immediately changed our clothes to prepare to meet Queen Louise, otherwise, I would have wanted to drag it out for another couple of days.
At this moment, we were reporting our experiences in the Kingdom of Prussia to Queen Louise IV, but… perhaps it was because yesterday’s events were just too stimulating for me, even though I tried my best to conceal it, I still couldn’t help but “expose” a little something.
“In short, Your Majesty, Ludwig should be injured and has temporarily gone into hiding. Although we can’t directly eliminate him, this elven sword saint won’t be making an appearance for a while.”
The morning queen was enjoying a full set of “Great Yeng Empire breakfast” service. I had originally planned to take advantage of the smiling queen, who was busy drinking tea, to “sneak by,” but… as I spoke, I couldn’t help but think of last night’s events.
Then, probably revealing a pig-like grin, I was immediately pinched on the butt by Kephiel.
“Pervert, don’t smile so disgusting in front of the queen…”
Then, leaning close to my ear, she whispered, “It will be exposed… you fool.”
The queen, who had just been smiling and sipping her tea, suddenly lost her smile. The intense gaze she directed at me sent a shiver down my spine.
“Ah, right! Your Majesty, we also found the second self-disciplined fairy in the Austro-Hungarian tribe, but due to some troublesome reasons, that fairy has now chosen me as her master.”
I hurriedly sought other topics to discuss, trying hard to maintain a serious expression in front of the queen.
No, I didn’t expose anything, right? Although Kephiel had complained this morning about feeling a bit uncomfortable walking, she still managed to act as usual without any issues. As for me, I should also appear “normal.”
“Mm-hmm~”
In the next moment, the queen’s smile returned as she set down her teacup and nodded somewhat dismissively.
“And then, and then… um…”
Just as I was about to find something else to say, at least to distract the queen’s attention…
The queen suddenly stood up.
With the deliberately graceful steps that even the noble girls of the Great Yng Empire struggled to maintain, she wore a radiant, innocent smile as she circled around me and Kephiel. Finally, she stopped beside me, her voice bright and carefree.
“You two have been sneaking around, haven’t you~?”
【Louise IV has noticed the relationship between Oujili and Kephiel.】
“Cough, cough, cough…”
Your Majesty, spare me!
And this exposure happened way too quickly! The Louise before me was indeed Louise, not the Moon Fairy, right? How could she guess so accurately!?
No, wait, this might be the queen’s provocation! Luring us into a trap, catching us off guard! I’ve had my fair share of setbacks on this matter!
“Y-Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Sneaking around?”
I wanted to cover it up, but the queen had no intention of targeting me; instead, she turned her gaze toward Kephiel.
“My dear cousin, is what the queen said true?”
I suddenly realized! If it were any other day, it would be one thing, but today is the day of the “spirited” Kephiel, who certainly wouldn’t bother to hide anything!
Sure enough, Kephiel answered with such ease—was this the composure that girls displayed after “that thing”!?
“What a pity, Sister Wang, that I couldn’t stop it again last night.”
“……”
Her calm demeanor made the queen’s smile falter a bit.
“See, see! I was only slightly distracted for a moment! And you all…”
There was nothing to be done; after all… last night was over, and today’s Kephiel could no longer be described as an upgrade; she had to be called an “evolution”! The aura she displayed at this moment was truly that of a true consort—composed, generous, and effortlessly in control. At least in this regard, the queen was somewhat lacking.
“If you want to know more, I’ll tell Sister Wang when I have the time. But for now, I need to go greet the teacher, so I’ll be off. O’Keelid, make sure to head back on your own later~”
The current Kephiel even dared to leave me alone with the queen.
This became the last straw that would make the queen “erupt.”
“I’m not asking!”
【Louise IV is jealous.】
The queen shouted at Kephiel’s retreating figure, her flustered jealousy a rare sight on her. However, it seemed there was no hope of dealing with Kephiel, so as soon as she left, the queen’s gaze immediately fixed on me!
“!”
The look she gave was as if she had discovered an unfaithful husband, making me genuinely feel the danger.
“Master~ It seems that all the ‘self-control’ you boasted about to me earlier was just empty talk, huh~”
“No, well, there’s nothing I can do, hahaha… Your Majesty.”
“Hey? Nothing you can do? Then I’d actually hope you could be ‘helpless’ with me just once~”
“Your Majesty… please have some decorum.”
It’s all falling apart; your character is crumbling, and your jealousy is unrecognizable!
However, it was useless…
“I don’t care! I don’t care! I’m just jealous! I became your fairy just to trust you a little, and you went and cheated! I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care!”
“L-l-l-lady, don’t shout so loudly!”
If this childish attitude of yours gets exposed, it’ll be the end!
