Chapter 1834: Golden Encounter 2

Together with Aria-san, whom I happened to meet in the city and ended up guiding, we aimed towards the street in the Western District by heading towards the plaza in front of the Royal Castle first.

However, I wonder why? Regarding Aria-san I feel like I've met her somewhere before.. It's just, I can immediately recall where I met her, so I guess even if I did encounter her, it was only just a brief exchange of words?

Hmmm, I can't really pinpoint her voice to anyone in particular. Perhaps we never actually spoke, and I just saw her somewhere If her face were clearer, maybe I'd recognize her, but with her bangs covering about half of her face, it's hard to tell.

[Aria-san, you mentioned not having come to the Royal Capital often, but have you come from another city?]

[Ahh, no, I live in Archlesia Empire, and it's Symphonia Kingdom itself that I haven't been to much. Well, I've certainly visited a few times, but I can't say I'm familiar enough with the area to recognize places on the map immediately.]

[I see, you're from Archlesia Empire huh.]

[Yes. Occasionally going on the streets Nhnn, ahh, no, going on small trips is a hobby of mine.]

She really gives off the vibe of a noble going around incognito. Even the way she says "on the streets" feels noble-like, and there's this elegance in the way she walks that doesn't quite match her attire.

It's just, hmmm Even though my name is known among the nobles, I don't really have many connections among the nobles. As I had been avoiding gatherings where nobles gather, my interactions with them were limited to casual greetings when attending parties or events, and that's especially the case with Archlesia Empire, with the number of my interactions with them even fewer I can hardly say I have any acquaintances there.

Was it just my imagination that I felt like I'd met Aria-san before then?

[It's a restaurant. Not a high-end or particularly exotic place, just a restaurant that serves deep-fried food like fries.]

[Heehhh~~ fries huh, sounds delicious.]

[Yes, simple fried food like that is quite appealing No, really, I usually keep image in mind but they're my favorite]

[Unnn?]

[Ahh, no, it's nothing. Ah, I know! If Kaito-sama is alright with it, would you like to have a meal with me? As a token of gratitude for guiding me, please allow me to treat you Well, I'm sorry it's nothing fancy though.]

[Thank you very much. Well then, since you're offering, I'll gladly accept It's been a while since I've had fries, so I'm looking forward to it.]

Aria-san looks apologetic for what she thinks is a cheap thanks, but I actually prefer something casual and easy to accept like this rather than being offered some unnecessarily fancy cuisine.

Despite there still being a distance from the said restaurant, since I'm really just guiding her, receiving excessive thanks would only make me feel apologetic.

Serious-senpai : [ Resides in Archlesia Empire, Kaito, with his Sympathy Magic, feels like he's seen her, but he doesn't recognize her voice (They may not have talked with each other?), Elegance of a noble sensed in her every gesture, The name she almost said before "Ale" Isn't she that Super Maid?]Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
