So long, my lord. I'll be back.
When we arrived at the venue, we stayed together until we got to our seats, but now the three of us will have to go to the waiting room.
Oh, don't push yourself too hard!
Yeah, thanks for the concern. I'll try to keep up.
Aina is shy but smiling wonderfully, but Sorte is fidgety and looks uncomfortable.
Could it be that she is nervous?
I didn't even show any pretense of that this morning, but maybe I'm surprisingly vulnerable to the show.
'Hey, hey!'
What's going on in the bathroom? I'm sorry, but I don't know where...
'No! Um, can I hold your hand for a minute?
I don't mind, but I don't see why not.
I don't mind! I'm a little nervous...
It's not like that, and it's very typical.
It's fine to tease, but we're probably pressed for time, so let's just hold his or her hand.
I took both of Solte's hands with both of mine and squeezed them gently.
'Good luck. But make sure you come back safely.
Solte looked up after staring at the hand in which it was held and smiled at me.
'Yeah, ehehe.'
What a cute smile, I wish I could smile as honestly as I usually do.
'I'll do my best. You'll be watching me, okay?
Oh. I'm rooting for you.
Yeah. Glad to hear it.
Is this what you call a gap moe?
I didn't expect that biting dog attitude of his at the beginning to turn into such a cute smile before I knew it.
Fufuuni and now he's holding my hands in the opposite direction, smiling shyly with a smile on his face.
'It's not fair! Me too! I want you to do the same for me!
Okay, okay. Wait a minute!
Boom!
Renge charges in from the side and hugs my armpit.
I almost lose the feeling of my breasts, which are discreet but decent enough to be there with the impact!
But I'm the one who can feel the difference.
It's a good thing that I'm able to praise myself.
''Hmm........I'm replenishing my master's supply.......''
I've got a look of satisfaction on my face as I rub my cheek with my face close to it, and for me too, this feeling is not bad.
It's not bad.
It's not a good idea. You're the one who's not fair!
Master Wendy says that this kind of thing is all about being positive and not holding back!
Well, my lord. Could I have the other side...?
...as long as it doesn't build momentum.
Then Aina goes around to the other side and gently hugs him from the side and brings his face to hers.
Hmm. You are a Marvelous.
You seem to have a firm understanding of your own charm.
'Soooooo........'
Hey, hey, you don't smell like a...
Aina, you look like a perv!
Hmm, no, but this is a habit... soooooo...
Really? Soooo.......... Oh.........
No, not even the sprouts! Solte! Don't try to get too close!
Hey! You two are good and I'm not!
'No you two! And don't even get me started on Solte! Don't sniffle your nose at me!
It's humiliating and quite embarrassing to have three people hugging you from three different directions, sniffing you and sniffing you!
It's even more embarrassing because you can't know what you smell in the first place!
And this is the first seat in the front of the nobleman's table.
What in the world is the nobleman behind me doing here? This would seem to be a most curious sight.
"Boys, I don't mind your bromance, but I think you'd better mind your place...
"That's a bold...
The arrival of His Highness the Princess and the two of you at this unexpected time.
Iris's face looks a little withdrawn, but I'd like to believe that this must be a mistake.
Spalier-sama's face is bright red and she may be trying to hide her face with her hands, but I can see that she is clearly staring at me through the gap.
Iris's appearance helped the three of them regain their egos and separate themselves, but when they all came to their senses, their faces turned bright red, just like Spalier-sama.
'You will be on the stage today, won't you? I'm expecting a good fight, eh?
"'Ha, yes! I'll do my best.
Iris gave the three men a pep talk as if nothing had happened.
The three of them straightened their posture in a big way and bowed before running to the players' waiting room.
''Iris-sama!
Thank you for your concern!
I'm sorry I thought you were a selfish little girl or something!
You were mature enough to read the air deliberately!
Well, I guess we'll have to make do today.
I take it back!
This little girl, just a little girl who likes to play pranks!
Good morning, Master Spurrier.
"Hayato-sama! Good morning. I'm very sorry for yesterday....
No, no, it's fine!
I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you all.
When he said that, Sparrier bowed his head deeply.
Letty was the one who reacted most quickly to the scene.
''Sh, Master Sparrier! Give us your head! We must not bow to people like us!
'Yes, that's right. I'm just a slave, you know!
Royalty and slavery don't matter. I bow my head and ask for forgiveness because I feel bad. Besides, I want to get along with you and Master Hayato.
I'm not sure I'm going to get along....
I want to learn to cook with Master Chris. I want to go shopping with Letty. I want to talk with Miss Emily. I want to take a bath with Mie-sama. And I want Hayato-sama to be at the center of it all, that's what I want.
This person must be positively clumsy.
He's straightforward in a good way and a bad way.
It seems to be more peaceful over there than yesterday.
I'm just jealous.
On the other hand.........
"Good morning, White.
Good morning, Iris.
How was your day yesterday?
We slept together.
Well? So? And? Did he hold you?
I'm hugged.
'Ho-ho-ho! You've done it!
"....in a dream.
... haha.
I don't think it's a good idea to snicker!
We laugh. You're laughing at me. Show me you're not ready to attack me, or I won't be with you for years!
I don't need to be held rather than get into awkward airs with the Lord over it!
White and Iris are buzzing and sparking again.
What in the world are you guys talking about?
Uh, master. I think it's about to begin.
'Oh, yes, it was! Your aunt is here today, so I'll be sure to take a good look at her. Here, good morning, sit down.
'Oh, yes. I knew you'd be sitting down again today.
Of course. A strawberry never fails to keep its promise!
Iris sits on the sofa as Iris hurries her to sit on the sofa, and naturally, she sits on her lap.
'Mmm, that's hard to sit on,'
It's only natural.
I'm sitting on one knee today.
Maybe straddling it would be more accurate.
"White, sit too.
When White sits on the other knee, he looks quite cramped.
And they are both leaning against each other, but they both look unsteady.
So, inevitably, my hands are used to support them.
'Um, master? May I sit next to you? If you want something to eat or drink, I'm your man.
Yeah, I'm sorry, can you...?
Yes. Leave it to me.
Now, will I be able to enjoy watching the match in this position...?
In the ring, the vice-captain bows his head four times in one direction at a time.
Then he raised his head and took a deep breath.
''Today, I'm going to give you a live commentary in the ring! He's the nicest buddy in the Order of Priests and Knights. Lieutenant, oh, excuse me, let's get started. All right, then. Today, the team game begins! Ladies and gentlemen! Do you have the materials at hand! Are you ready to bet? Are you ready to rattle and shake if it comes off!''
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Come to think of it, this time the gambling merchant is........oh, he's dealing with Hayato now?
Muu, Sparrier-sama is smiling happily.
I guess Letty and the others are still getting used to it, but with that atmosphere, it's probably only a matter of time.
Chris is still going to be nervous, but I'm sure they'll get along well if they make sweets together or something.
Emily and Mee will do well without worrying about them, I'm sure.
Now, I don't have the data yet, but if I had to bet, of course it's just those three.
If we win, we'll reward them for their winnings.
You can buy equipment, snacks, or whatever you like and treat yourself.
''Then I will explain the rules! The team fight is 3 for 3, with a ring out, a knockout, and both ejections, with the winner being the team that stands alone until the end! There are 16 teams in the field! Weapons will be used with the appropriate competition weapons, but only magic that is permitted will be allowed!'
I'm not sure if there are any restrictions on magic.
The only thing that can be done is to make sure that you have the right information.
I'd like to request that everyone in the front row do not touch the light rainbow colored light in front of you! It took 10 sorcerers to set up the warding, so one touch and you will die. There are guards to keep you away, but please don't get too excited and get too close. You won't be bothered in church when you die! Do you understand?''
"Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh!
As usual, he's a very talkative sub-captain.
But still, for 10 people to set up a ward, it's a pretty big deal....
It's dangerous to get close to them.
I'll make sure not to go near it. I won't go near it!
'Then let's get the first round started! The B-ranked adventurer 'Sonic Fang' versus the knight's closest friend, the trio! The "Childhood Friendlies Triangle" has arrived!
Well, it's time for the team game.
I'm going to enjoy watching the game because I couldn't watch it yesterday.
I'm thirsty. Get me a drink.
Lord, I'm hungry.
Let's have some fun.
