Chapter 292. Is this a match! (6)
“Status. uh no problem Money... well, let's just move on with this. Most of all, you understand Arel’s personality the most, right?”
“Actually, that’s what you keep avoiding, right?
The other ladies don't know your true nature.”
It is really cowardly to point out the facts very accurately.
“Because that's what marriage between nobles is like. It is concluded by weighing the profits. Then, of course, there must be many things we cannot show each other.”
“...don't deny it.”
There is no such thing as the reason why I fought against it.
“But I am different. I already know Arel’s personality to the point of getting tired of it!”
.... Hearing that he's tired of it from his own mouth makes me feel strange.
Is my personality that... severe?
Am I still a quick gentleman to mankind?
“If it were me, would you accept whatever you do now?”
“You will regret that now.”
I haven't even shown you half of my heart yet.
I still have more of my unwholesome nature left.
All you've seen so far is a wholesome version of Arell.
So don't miscalculate.
“Arel, marriage might be a stumbling block to you, right? I avoided it because I hated it.”
“then?”
“Then wouldn’t it be best if you married me?”
But now that I think about it, could this be me being proposed to?
“Is there any benefit to marrying me?”
??????
Is he in a position to talk about his mood when he sees me?
I feel like I'm being scammed, so I'm in a very strange mood right now.
As if she knew how I felt, Pena began to narrow the distance again, showing a sincere face instead of a pretentious smile like before.
“If it were me, I wouldn’t oppose anything you do. If you're worried about getting caught up in useless politics, don't do it. Because I'm not interested in that either. If it were me, wouldn't I be able to stop the troublesome things in moderation?”
“Hoo?”
Apparently, Pena wants to convince me why she has no choice but to accept this marriage talk.
Is it self-appeal?
Shall we let her say what she wants for now?
From the beginning, I tend to listen to people until the end.
When I was ready to listen quietly, Pena continued.
“This marriage talk will never hurt Arel or me.”
First of all, are you trying to appeal to a reasonable plan that you think?
“Both of us need to make sure we have a sense of companionship both at our age and in our current position. Arel, you seem to have put it off well until now. Until now, I had a hard time proceeding with marriage talks because of my position.”
“Um, not really.”
It was because I was so bad at slipping out like a loach, and Pena was in a very ambiguous position to arbitrarily proceed with marriage talks before coming out as a spirit sage.
“I’m asking just in case, have you been hearing a lot lately about getting married too?”
“of course! what! Arel? Those unexpected eyes! look at me Of course, everyone covets it, right?”
Even if you said that.....
“Is that so?”
“Oops!”
No, don't shake your stomach while crying.
If you can't even swim, why use the boat as a hostage?
I know, don't admit it.
Well, looking at the objective facts, Pena's appearance is flawless.
....Of course, personality is not reflected in this evaluation.
“anyway! Lately, Arel, I secretly watched you meet.”
“...Her Highness the Princess? Have you also opened your eyes to voyeurism?”
Somehow, it seems like someone has been spying on me lately.
“Arel, you don’t particularly care about marriage talks. And neither do I.”
“Oh, that makes a lot of sense. so?”
“But neither you nor I can put it off any longer, can we? It cannot be delayed.”
It seems like marriage is being treated like an overdue vacation homework for some reason.
For now, let's wait and listen.
“Arel, I think you are my most likely marriage partner.”
At this moment, Pena looked straight into my eyes without a twinkle in her eyes and said.
I wasn't being sarcastic, but in another sense I was silent.
“then?”
“Then I’ll pretend I didn’t see about ten concubines.”
“...Why ten?”
This guy... already speaks confidently.
Seeing that I continue to fight against each other, I must be convinced that there is no other opponent I would choose otherwise.
It is an appeal that seems reckless but is not reckless.
no. Before that, why not raise your hand while appealing? don't stutter where do you touch
“Well, if I were there, I wouldn’t bother turning a blind eye to the concubine.”
What kind of baseless confidence is this again?
And do you know what that means?
Seeing that he was slightly embarrassed, he must have known and said it.
....Where did the embarrassing princess go when I was fooling around two years ago?
Who the hell made her evolve like this?
Is the culprit the nanny?
Well, it's not that Pena's words are unreasonable.
Her confidence isn't entirely unfounded either.
As the saying goes, if it's Pena, then even if I continue the marriage conversation as it is, it's not someone who will be easily dissatisfied.
In addition, I know my method well, so it won't be a stumbling block.
There is no problem with power either.
Awareness of the surroundings will not be a problem.
look over there
Isn't everyone looking this way as if they were expecting it?
You won't even hear their voices before that, but I don't know what's interesting about them looking around.
In any case, there is no problem as an opponent.
There, he himself strongly appeals.
There is also no coercion.
I also.
‘There's definitely no reason to refuse.'
When I think about it, it is.
The reason I didn't dare touch Pena in the first place was because of her will.
Hana, if he appealed directly like this...
“Before that, in the empire, did the young lady propose first?”
“You know what? If I just wait anyway, Arel, you won't say this to me, right? And in the meantime, another woman will take it away.”
“I'm not a fish to be taken away... but there's a point... is there?”
Yes, there is only one problem.
Are you aware of my personality?
“Then does what you’re doing have anything to do with that?”
“...Maybe?”
Specifically, putting one hand on top of my thigh and holding it near my shoulder with the other hand.
Even if it's not, the boat is narrow.
Wouldn't that put a lot of weight on it?
No matter how enchanted the ship is, it would be dangerous if it moved too openly?
However, contrary to my concerns, Pena is gradually shifting its weight towards me.
“Does it have anything to do with talking about this on a boat?”
“Well what about it? If Arel is going to refuse, maybe he thought about spreading rumors first by sticking to it like this? On a boat and in front of people watching, no matter how much you are, you won't be able to push me away?”
Shall we try?
As far as I am concerned, I wouldn't mind kicking your ass off the boat.
He's still far away.
But I'll admit that I'm sincere.
“On a boat... what the hell were you thinking? It's dangerous before then, so don't stick around.”
“are you okay. Geographically, I have an advantage.”
“What does that mean? No, the ship tilts to the side before the advantage?”
“It's the perfect plan.”
“It’s a flimsy plan that could sink at any moment!”
“Did Lipana tell you? I heard that Her Majesty, the former king of Ernesia Kingdom, used this method’?”
mom!
I ended up hearing about my parents' love affairs, which I didn't even want to know.
And why do you copy my father's methods?
It's usually the opposite!
Well, I'll give you an evaluation that only the sincerity was conveyed well.
If you were aiming for that effect on a rocking boat, I think I could give you at least praise for rolling your brain quite a bit for a Pena.
