9 Where Am I Going?



"Ein, I'll see you later! I'm going to visit too, so I'm really glad the territory is nearby!

Apparently there will be a greeting or something at the end as the host's home, so it's time for Krone and Ain to say goodbye.

Ever since I gave you the Star Crystal, it was already sorely missed.

First, I kept holding hands since then, and without naming you, I no longer call you 'Ain'.

If you call me Master Krone, it will change with the adult appearance and it will inflate your cheeks puckerely to appeal to your dissatisfaction. What a hug the last one had on my arm.

The mood at that glance lasted until the Grand Duke people came to get Krone.

I seemed to be able to do what I could, and I was under the good impression that I was trying to fulfill my responsibilities properly.

Is there something selfish about it? And Ain was thinking, so he was reflecting a little.

"I get it. 'Cause this is a place you can't come and visit easily, and honestly, it helps."

Exactly, Krone. Ahem! It is not a house where you can come.

The reason is that the Roundheart family is under the ranks of the Grand Duke of Augusto.

"Hehe, right. So... Dear Olivia, thank you for a wonderful time today."

"Oh, that's our line, isn't it? Thank you so much for today. Make sure you get along with your son."

"Hey Ain? Olivia forgave me."

"Ha... be gentle."

See you later!

And that's how Krone went back to the venue.

"Well, actually, I don't think we can get along any better."

Ain shrugged small. Ein was at the Count's house and Krone was the Grand Duke, at which point the identity difference was very large.

Above the Count's house are the Marquis, the Duke, and finally the Grand Duke, but that won't be the only problem.

All Ain thought about was that even royalty would want to know about Krone.

He's smart and looks great. It was too much of a condition as a royal wife.

That's why this story won't go on, that's what I felt.

Thank you, Ein.

"What is it?

"You cared about your mother, didn't you?

"... I don't know what you're talking about, but if your mother feels better, I'm happy."

"Hehe. Really... then that's what I'll do?

The best harvest is that your mother was not ashamed, that she was entertained.

Speaking of which, I heard that Krone is back because he's going to tighten the party... but I wonder what the fathers are up to.

"The one there? Dear Logus... I wonder which Count Roundheart is."

"This is Mrs. Roundheart. Please wait."

We were out of the garden, too, waiting in a place like the salon near the reception.

Exactly. We can't just go home, and I'm not feeling too good, but we should rendezvous.

"It's too late..."

I think it's been over 10 minutes since I asked the person who was serving about our father, he hasn't come back yet...

"Yeah, but it's hosted by the Grand Duke, so sometimes I can't get out too lightly..."

"It's not a good idea to smash their faces, is it?"

"You're a good boy to know better, Ain't"

... Well, I'm so glad your mother praised you? But still, I thought it might be a little too long.

Exactly, I'll give you some understanding of the circumstances that prevented you from entering.

Then why don't you care enough to come out a little early?

If you look only at the factual results, it's no exaggeration to say that you left your real wife alone for the duration of the party.

"Ha... ha... oh, thank you for waiting, Mrs. Roundheart"

"Oh, I'm sorry I rushed you, so where's your husband?

"... it's hard to say, but all three of you went to the night club... and Viscount Lance said they were going to host a night club tonight."

"Until recently, Lady Krone and we were together, and lastly, Lady Krone was also returned to work as the Grand Duke of the host… before that greeting, are you saying that you left the Grand Duke?

"It is so. From the outset, Viscount Lance contacted the host Grand Duke that way, saying he planned to host today's night club, so he didn't seem particularly rude that Count Roundhart, who was in a mentoring relationship, would go out and support him..."

"A while back, you mean you already went through here?

Is that your mother? You don't look sad when you want to look at me when the party starts.

I've never been over it without it, but it still creates a slightly more powerful atmosphere than usual, but I felt slightly uncomfortable, that would make me angry, not to mention my wife. I can't believe I'm going to a second meeting...

"Well, I apologize for taking so long to report this."

"Oh, that's okay... but yeah. Okay, thank you."

"Yes. Now if you'll excuse me. Please let me know if you need anything."

"... Phew, that's good."

My mother sighed, I've never seen the look on my face like I was so disappointed, done enough and bothered everything.

Nevertheless, your mother is beautiful.

"Hey Ain? Do you like your father?

"... Huh?

It's all of a sudden… what kind of intent is the question?

"Oh, I'm sorry, Ain't... you're in sudden trouble, hmm... but still, your mother wants you to tell her what Ain thinks about your father."

"Is that what I mean, like?

"Yeah, that's right. What do you think about your father... how much do you like him?

Understood.

Maybe your mother only wants you to like yourself.

I've been treated like this in the house I've been married to, and I'm sad and lonely... and so am I. I don't want to admit that your mother is willing to treat me like that and I'm sad.

So...

"I'm sorry about your mother, but I don't have the feeling that I like her as much as I don't want to leave.

I appreciate you raising me. Still, there's no such thing as love in a father as doing this to his mother. "

"Oh yeah...! So even without your father... Ping, do you mind?

"There's nothing wrong with me if your mother stays with me. So... it's okay, right?

Ain't convinced to see Olivia looking so happy.

Good, I knew I was lonely and sad, I'm fine, because I've always been on my side...

If I had thought about it that way, I would have started something Ain't imagined.

"... let's get started."

Pull out the wedding ring that was in the middle of your finger, and hold it in your hand.

"Mother?"

Polo polo...

It rushed with rapid momentum and collapsed by the time the whole thing rusted.

"I don't need this anymore... that's why I did this"

"You don't want it anymore... Mother?

"(Uh, what's this magic? Is it magic? awesome momentum and blurted out but what is this a little scary)"

To be honest, surprises accounted for the majority.

I've seen some simple magic like boiling water and cutting things off several times.

Still, I've never seen it feel so magical.

There is no way a wedding ring like the one used by the nobility would be rust-prone metal.

It was golden and I knew it was golden and expensive. It was pure gold.

"(I've heard that pure gold basically doesn't rust... I've heard that it's easy to understand rust if it's a mixture, but there's no way a nobleman like us would buy such a cheap one, and that means)"

At least Olivia is magically good enough to make it easier.

In fact, Father only holds the rank of Grand General in the Kingdom of Heim, and when it comes to martial arts, he is the apex of the Knights in the country, even though he took it for granted that his father is good at something because his daughter-in-law gives him.

"(I hear your mother worked as a magician at the castle, and that means it was more amazing than she thought)"

They also normally exist magic like flaming and icing, but it was too much to think it was amazing for Ain't I've yet seen.

Because Roundheart territory is just a territory with a heavy town of knights, and not many people are good at magic.

"(That's different, not if you're thinking about it... It's more of a problem that you broke your wedding ring,

What the hell...) "

"Ha... refreshing. Yeah... it's refreshing, I should have done this from the beginning. Hey, Ain't you scared to go out to sea and get on a boat?

"The ocean...? No, I don't know what it's like, but it sounds good!

"(Mother, please.

Please explain a little more... what's wrong...?

And I'm sorry. I've never been on a ship, so I don't know what it feels like) "

"Yes! Good for you, because your mother will make you a lovely adventure, won't she?

"(Me, adventure?)"

"Yes! Looking forward to it!

Ein gets a little distracted, unusual, by Olivia, who has been creating an unspoken air.

"Now, is it time to go back to the port town?

"Well, there are no fathers either. If I go home now, will I be able to wear it before the day changes?

"Heh heh, yeah. I think I'll be there just before it changes. Shall we leave now, too?"

Ein couldn't ask why he broke the ring or why it was refreshing.

Still, I wasn't dissatisfied when I saw my mother who didn't seem sad. Ain't been able to anticipate the furious events that followed.

"You're finally here, Mother."

"I'm sorry, Ain't I? Make it such a sudden schedule."

A little before midnight, it's almost midnight.

We finally arrived at the port town Round Heart, where we were born.

Ein was tired of riding the carriage for half a day, but he was satisfied with his rather full time in Wang Du.

"Is that your mother? Aren't you coming down?

"Yeah, I'm not going down here. We're almost there, right?

"... ok"

The carriage, which normally passes in front of the Round Heart Mansion, proceeds towards the port.

But there's a lot of noise in town today.

"Mother? What's the matter, it's so noisy that this is the time"

It was odd that the town was this busy at this hour near midnight.

The harbour town of Roundhart is a harbour town near the king's capital, which is why there are quite a few people in the liquor store at the latest of the night.

This noise was unusual, though.

"(Busy today is strange)"

What's that sound like a carriage out on the boulevard? Are voices and knights like that still there? and so on. It was a noisy voice.

"(What? Is there a case?)"

"Ma'am, something seems noisy... because you can move on?

He asks Olivia in suspicion.

"Yeah, I don't mind, just keep going to port."

But without any intention, Olivia instructs him to proceed.

Isn't that a case? Does your mother know what it is? and a lot of things come to mind in Ain.

"Uh... that's busy"

I'm not exploring it, but I'm going to say that it's busy sometimes because I can't stand the air anymore.

"Hehe, yeah. You're about to see something nice, Ain't you?

"(I see a nice guy named you every day, right?)"

"I'm looking forward to seeing what it looks like"

Take the road, and when it's time to see the main harbor through the boulevard, Ain finds a large building he's unfamiliar with.

Ain found it sticking out of the roof of a private house near the harbor or a three-story inn… it was a chimney-like nanica.

At the same time, the volume of the people's hustle and bustle has risen far.

Where that voltage sounds culminating, when I arrived at the port where a large ship could stop, it was in Ain's eyes that it was so big that I couldn't have predicted...

"Huh... what, this... Huh!?

It was a huge, beautiful ship with a white tone of 200m.

Even when it comes to ships, I have the impression that they are equipped with something like a turret or something that is about to beam and are like a battleship.

"Yeah, yeah, you're here. Come on, Ain't you gonna ride this?

"I'll ride... Mother, what the hell is this?"

I have such a presence in front of me that I'm honestly not convinced that I'll ride it.

"Your lord? Please deliver this letter to the Roundheart family"

Olivia had been writing to me in the carriage for a while.

Pass the letter to the man who has pulled the carriage so far.

"Or... I'm in awe!

"(See, your mistress is a little out of her hips too... Mother, a little more explanation...)"

"Master Olivia!

"Mrs. Roundheart! What the hell is this!?

The people of Round Heart Territory speak to Olivia, who seems to know the circumstances.

Olivia, who usually answers with an angelic smile, never replied this time and never had her usual smile pointed at her.

When Ain't got off the carriage and a minute or so went by in that hustle and noise, about 10 knights from the giant ship in front of them and a knight who's nicer than those knights walk down here.

"Mother!

"Ein, it's okay... right?

You know him? When Ain't thinking that, Olivia turns to Ain and smiles gently.

And Olivia walks out alertly, toward the 11 knights who have come down.

Ain't failing to be vigilant so he can protect Olivia no matter what.

"... brave knight. Don't worry, we are not enemies"

I heard voices from the most intimate knight of them all.

One knee with that said, Ain and eyes close.

That voice was just a woman, more to the word ally than that? Doubts arose as to what that meant.

"Not the enemy...?

When I think about it, I take my helmet and smile at Ain.

Hiding in her helmet was a beautiful woman who looked about 20 years old with beautiful pure blonde hair on her white skin.

"Yeah, I'm on your side, and I'm being rude in our position... but at least I'm not an enemy to you two. I'll see you first, Dear Ein."

"Welcome... nice to meet you"

I couldn't get a proper response to too many events.

I can't understand right away when they say I'm on your side.

"It's been a long time, Chris. Thanks for caring about Ain"

Olivia speaks to the knight as if to speak to a friend she is used to.

Olivia gave me a gentle smile.

"Thank you for meeting you once. We have been contacted and are here to pick you up as soon as possible... Princess"

"(Princess...? Oh, it's not me, is it? Mother...?)"
