Chapter 228 – Feeling of Loss

Episode 228 – Sense of loss

A few hours later, after having fun swimming at the private beach, we changed clothes and went out to the downtown area to have lunch.

Is it because it is far from the empire?

The independently developed architectural style and food culture attract attention.

“Hmm… “What should I eat?”

“Luan. How about that one? “It’s food made with fish and shellfish that can only be found here!”

“There are also foods made using buffalo that live in volcanoes!”

I was worried about what to eat because they were all things I would never be able to eat anywhere else.

The rest of the group seemed to be busy looking around and looking at the food.

It was in the meantime.

“Huh?”

“Why are you here…”

I made eye contact with Scadia who was just getting out of the carriage.

It’s surprising that they found each other even among this many people, but the most surprising thing is that they met Scadia and no one else.

After having a snowball fight for a while, we turned our heads without anyone taking the initiative.

My intention was to just pretend not to see it like this.

The problem is that there are quite a few people here who have better insight than me.

Among them, there is one woman in particular who hates me very, very much.

“Oh? Lady Scadia Maryland? “It’s a coincidence that we met in a place like this!”

Regina quickly followed her, shouting for everyone to hear.

Scadia approached us, frowning but unable to ignore the bloodline of the great Solias royal family.

“Long time no see. “The princess.”

Scadia sets a perfect example of being independent of her own feelings.

Her group welcomed her willingly.

“It’s really Scadia, right?”

“You came here on vacation too? Nice to meet you!”

“… Okay. Nice to meet you.”

As if it was impossible to spit on her brightly smiling face, Skadia answered Yuni’s words with sincerity even though she seemed to be in a bad mood.

A brief conversation takes place centered around the two.

I stood from a distance with the two women on either side of me watching the scene.

When I catch a glimpse of Isis, she is also looking at Skadia with an awkward expression.

‘Let’s just wait until we break up like this.’

There is no benefit in interfering, so the best thing to do is just wait.

But there was someone who wouldn’t allow it.

What can I say, of course Scadia is the culprit that kept us here.

“What are you all doing there? Come here and let’s talk together. Huh? Isis!”

“Re, Regina. I am…”

“Are you two still having an uncomfortable relationship? “I believe we reconciled during the last tournament.”

Regina blinks her eyes innocently, as if she really doesn’t know anything.

That sight is so disgusting that I want to run over and smack him in the back right now.

Scadia said with a sigh, as if she was clearly aware of Regina’s trick of hers.

“No. Are you okay. There was just a slight misunderstanding in the first place. Yes? Chairman.”

“… Okay. There are no hard feelings between us anymore.”

It felt like there were still a lot of bad feelings, but if two people behave like that, no one else can get involved.

Regina grabbed the two people and this time dragged me in as well.

“Princess Ruan, welcome too. You two are okay now, right? The break-up of the engagement was at the request of the Lady of Scadia, and Prince Luan now has a new fiancée, so there is no problem. Right?”

This crazy bitch casually mentions a sensitive topic. It’s disgusting that they are using the royal family’s blood so actively.

Scadia looked at me, Deborah, and Alyssa in that order due to the remark that she freely crossed the line.

Alyssa flinched for a moment, but then she hugged my arm even tighter and confidently met her eyes with Skadia.

At the same time, Skadia’s eyebrows twitched.

Soon, she nodded her head, her eyes becoming even colder.

“That’s right. No problem. It’s still good. I had a question about the two. How about having a meal together? “I have a reservation at a restaurant.”

“Really? Then it’s good for us. Everyone agrees, right?”

Of course I cannot agree.

It would be a pricey offer, but just when I was about to refuse, Alyssa whispered in my ear.

“Just accept it.”

“Huh?”

“Are you okay. Believe me. “I’ll make it so you can’t even make a sound!”

Alyssa speaks loudly.

Does she know?

The more this happens, the more anxious she becomes.

‘Can I trust it… ? .’

As I was thinking about it, Deborah whispered from the other side.

“Don’t worry. “I will help too.”

“Deborah…”

“Honestly, we have nothing to lose, right? As the princess said, they first proposed breaking off the engagement. “We didn’t do anything wrong.”

Deborah’s purple eyes sparkled.

It seems as if she has peeked into the future, and an inexplicable sense of trust soars.

I made a decision.

“I agree. It’s been a while since I’ve had some delicious food.”

“Good idea! “What about other people?”

They expressed their agreement one by one to Regina’s questions.

For my companions, it didn’t matter as long as I was okay with it.

Only Isis stared at my face for a long time before finally agreeing.

So we followed Skadia into the restaurant.

After being guided by the manager and sitting down around the table, a sumptuous feast consisting of various seafood and meat was soon presented.

It was a scent and visual that I had never experienced before.

However, I did not pay any more attention to the food than necessary and instead focused on Scadia.

I was curious what he would say.

However, what she said was a little different from what she expected.

“Okay then, let’s all eat first. It’s my first time eating food here, so I’m looking forward to it.”

“Yes. Thank you. Lady.”

“I’ll eat well. Scadia.”

Contrary to my worries, the meal started in a rather friendly atmosphere.

While eating in silence for a while, Yuni began speaking.

“But I didn’t know that Skadia would come here too. “Did you come alone?”

“Huh. Her father told her that she had worked hard for a year and sent her to rest. What about you?”

“We had a lottery for travel tickets and I won first place! Awesome, isn’t it?”

Scadia twitched her lips as she looked at Uni, who boasted that all of this was thanks to Abel.

“That’s amazing. Even if I have to come here, I come here.”

“Huh? “What did you just say?”

“No. “Thanks to you, we met.”

Fortunately, Uni, who was a wizard and did not have a high sense stat, could not hear the sound.

On the contrary, physical factions with high sensory stats heard it.

Regina still smiled brightly, pretending not to have heard anything, Isis bit her lip, and Alyssa turned on her double wick.

And I held Alyssa’s hand tightly as she tried to protest and played a role in calming her down.

It hurts my head to see her trying to give in to provocation from the start after telling her to only trust herself.

I glared at Skadia.

‘That’s something I’m deliberately telling you to listen to.’

It was such a clever way of speaking that it felt uncomfortable to just ignore it, but if you reacted that way, you would actually be labeled as a strange person.

It would be nice to put that smart brain to good use.

Still, one positive thing is that Skadia is not going to start a fight right away.

If that were the case, I would have asked directly instead of saying it back.

I started to enjoy food with peace of mind.

“Alyssa. Try this. “It’s delicious.”

“What? Now, wait… Wow!”

Alyssa, who was fighting with Scadia, fought as the fried rice with seafood was forced into her mouth.

I guess it tasted good, but I quickly calmed down.

Afterwards, as I ate while listening to Scadia’s occasional scratching words with one ear, my plate soon became empty.

As she was enjoying the afterglow of a light dessert, Scadia threw her bait.

“Alyssa. Do you think the food suits your taste buds? I was wondering what if she didn’t like me because I said she was pregnant. “I guess the morning sickness isn’t that bad.”

“Yes? Oh, that’s right! There was no particular morning sickness. “I guess it’s because my baby is so calm.”

And Alyssa took the bait.

It’s about the pregnancy anyway, it’s not that important and I can just deny it, but out of a petty desire to take the lead, I stopped shaking hands.

Thanks to this, he had no choice but to mix lies in all his future answers his.

If you are caught, you will be completely stopped.

“Okay? For some reason, my stomach didn’t come out. “How long has it been?”

“Oh that… Ha, about a month? “It hasn’t been long.”

“One month? It’s mid-December? What? But didn’t you say you liked Eunrang back then?”

“Uh, Eunrang?”

“Huh. You went to the festival and danced a sword dance. What happened?”

Scadia looked straight at Alyssa.

Under that immense pressure, Alyssa broke out into a cold sweat and was unable to say anything.

“You can’t believe it…”

There was doubt in Skadia’s eyes her.

Finally, when she was convinced and the initiative was about to be completely overtaken by her, Deborah intervened.

“Of course you’re not a fan, right?”

“What?”

“Admiration and love are different. Just because you like a celebrity doesn’t mean you don’t have a lover, right? It’s the same thing.”

“You’re a fan? Then why can’t you answer? “Isn’t it because there’s something that stings?”

Scadia’s eyes turned to Alyssa’s stomach.

Anticipating what would come next, I quickly covered her mouth.

“That’s it. “Don’t cross the line anymore.”

“You…”

“Whatever you were trying to say was just speculation. We take care of our own business. Do you understand?”

“But…”

Despite my warning her, she did not back down easily and continued to maintain her attitude.

Deborah saw that and struck a blow.

“Are you really jealous?”

“What?”

“Are you jealous? Are you feeling regretful now? If it’s not like that, stop.”

Pap deuk!

Scadia gritted her teeth.

Even though I couldn’t tell if it was because I had hit the nail on the head, or because I was angry at something so absurd, it was easy to tell that I was very emotionally upset.

But fortunately, she quickly calmed down and regained her cool.

“Yeah, you’re right. I apologize. Sorry. “Alyssa.”

“Gwae, it’s okay. You might be curious.”

“No. I passed by. Well, I think we’re almost done eating, so I’ll go first. See you next time.”

Scadia left her greeting with a neat apology.

There was silence in the room for a moment.

Perhaps because the atmosphere was uncomfortable, Abel stood up smiling awkwardly.

“Well, then shall we go too? Since we had a meal, let’s take a look around the island! “I saw a lot of interesting things when I came here earlier.”

“Yes, that’s right! Let’s all go!”

“I don’t want to be stuffy, so let’s go out quickly.”

Thanks to the support of our companions, we left the restaurant and walked down the street.

Fortunately, as Abel said, the outside was full of interesting things, so we were able to quickly regain our original mood.

And a few hours later, it was time to return to the pension after shopping for the dinner party.

“Scadia?”

“… Luan.”

I ran into Skadia who was just coming out of the pension next door.

It’s crazy that I’m neighbors with this guy.
