It is normal for an Imperial nobleman to have his main residence in his own territory and a separate residence in the Imperial capital, Lunatia.
There is no one who does not have a residence in the Imperial Capital, especially the Central Nobility and the Grand Nobles. As a natural consequence, the residence of the Green Moon family, one of the four Dukes' houses, also exists in the Imperial Capital.
After breaking up with the Meers on their way to Clausius territory, Theon and Tiona were on their way to the Green Moon Mansion.
Theon for a meeting with Eschar and a greeting to the Green Moon family. And Tiona, not because of her companion... but because Emerald invited her directly.
Because of the exchange between his brother Cyril and Eschar, the reason for visiting the house of the four dukes chosen by the Imperial Central Nobility was a state of emergency.
As expected, Tiona could not hide her tension.
― ― I'm glad His Highness Theon was with me. Usually, I'm with you, but when I think I'm going to see you alone...
Originally, it was Tiona who held the complex against the Imperial Central Nobility. Thanks to Meer, things have improved, but I'm still not quite good at paying for it. Emeralda, who had travelled with her, still thought that if she met her father, the Duke himself... it was impossible for her to be nervous.
"Then, while tightening his expression, he walked through the gate of the mansion..."
"Greetings, Prince Theon."
Your daughter, who had been waiting for you, called out.
It was Emerald Etois Green Moon that raised the hem of the skirt. Emeralda demonstrated the perfect work worthy of a starring Duchess...
"I'm glad you're doing well, brother-in-law."
I said that with a slightly smelly face! It looks just like some crazy princess (it's definitely named Meer or something...)!
"Ah, it's kind of weird to be called oniisan by an older daughter..." I guess Lady Emerald hasn't had a conversation with Eshar yet..... "
Zion laughs with a troubled face.
"Oh, I'm just practicing now, brother-in-law Theon"
Emerald looked toward Tiona after saying it with a squeaky face.
Tiona's gaze made her body twitch and tremble...
"Tiona-san, it's been a long time." So, you haven't had a chance to talk to me before. ”
"Yes... thank you for inviting me today, Emeralda."
Tiona stretches her spine in a sophisticated tone. Tiona shook her head with emeralds like that.
"Oh, there's nothing to be nervous about." Today, those who have learned together in St. Noel think of it as a gathering to warm up old friendships. and..... "
And, after cutting her words, Emeralda looked serious.
“There is no central or peripheral location in the new country that Meir is aiming for. Isn't that right?"
Gently put your hand on your chest, Emeralda continues.
"I once took it for granted to look down on the nobility of the surrounding lands. That is to preserve the tradition and possession of the gatekeeper nobility. However... Master Meir showed me a different world... And unlike the old Empire, you helped me out for the new Empire......"
Emerald clenched her fist in her chest like she was gripping an important emotion...
"I answered Master Meir's call, as my best friend (both)... no!" As a great best friend (both!), I will work hard to realize the ideal country for that person. If you have the same aspirations, how would you like to be my cherished companion? Are you on Mr. Meer's side? "
Tiona nodded quietly as she asked straightforwardly.
"Yes... of course. I will do my best for you, Emeralda."
“Great, then we'll get along.”
Emerald gave a gentle smile.
Then she guides the two of them into the mansion.
"I'm sorry." Your Highness Theon. As a matter of fact, my father, Lord Green Moon, is not here today. Even though there is a Prince of Sancland, I know it's rude, but.... "
And, behold, Emerald drew forth her tongue, and her fingers.
"To be honest, I was wondering if I could talk slowly to His Highness Esher if my father was with me..."
"No, thank you for your concern." Miss Emeralda, I always take care of my brother. "
"No, as long as I can only do it like this, it's hard..."
Emeralda gave a small smile... and crushed it without telling anyone.
"But really, that's right..." I'm not the only one playing with His Highness Eschar, even though other stars are in motion. If Ruvi-san is to capture the army and Saffias-san is to capture the tough-headed central nobleman (Grandmother)...... I don't have much left to do though..... "
Emeralda tilts her neck with her hands on her cheeks.
"For now, my cooperation with St. Meir Academy, and...."
And there, Emeralda's eyes lived in a demonic light.
"I see... I wonder if I could stick a nail in the Ganudos Port State..."
Nyali was an emerald with an invincible smile.
No one knows at this point how the diplomatic Green Moon family, their eldest daughter, Emeralda's stupidity, has affected history.
