185 Secret conversation with the reincarnation princess. (3)

The magic circle has not yet been completed, so a detailed story will be given later.

The interview with my father was over, as Irene explained.

Shortly before leaving the room, my father and Leonhardt were talking in a small voice, but could not be heard. I think I was curious and close at hand, but now I was full of myself.

I'm thinking about my father's words on my way back to my room.

"You are definitely a hindrance to raptors"

I think I had never seen anything around.

I just sought to do my best to do what I could and I only saw it before. I didn't even know who the consequences would be and how.

I thought that stopping the spread of the disease and trying to stop the resurrection of the Demon King would have good consequences for everyone, but it wasn't.

It's the perspective of the Nebel Kingdom and Nebel's friendly nations. The opposite is true from the enemy's perspective.

As the father says. I'm pretty annoying for Raptor.

"..."

At the same time, I felt cold.

The moment you realize you are aiming for your life, your body grows stiff. Her hands are squeezed tightly, but her fingertips, which have lost blood, are cold and warm.

I have been to various places and have had various experiences.

My journey has always been turbulent and I never felt the danger of my life. Each time I was weak, I was very scared, but the fear I felt at this moment was another kind.

It is different from encountering a dangerous scene and getting involved. Some people wish for the death of "I".

Moreover, when the murderous intent is directed at me, I don't even know when, where or who will take my hand.

Where to look and who to watch out for. How long should I withstand?

It is terrible to know nothing. It was suddenly thrown into the ocean at night.

How long will this anxiety that your feet are likely to collapse? Maybe as long as you live?

If you think so, your eyes will be completely dark.

"Princess"

I was staring at my feet and turned to me.

When I raised my face, I met Leonhard, who looked worried.

Don't worry, I'm worried.

Leonhardt is the guard of the Knights of the Guard, that is, our job is to protect the royal family. Nevertheless, it's rude that I, the escort target, have an anxious and dying face.

It's like saying you don't trust the arms of Leonhard, Claus, and the other knights.

Even if you forcibly laugh.

Even if you are strong or fit, you have to be calm. That is the duty as a royal family.

I told myself and tried to laugh.

My consciousness trying to lift the mouth corner that seems to be twitching concentrates on my cold fingertips.

I couldn't immediately understand what was softly touched.

The hard feel and warmth are transmitted. He turned his gaze at his fingertip with a slow motion, and his gnarled fingers were gently wrapping around my cold fingers.

"...?"

I understand that I'm in the hand of Leonhard, and I'm upset.

Before my feelings of being ashamed or happy, I came to the mind that I would bother you.

Although it is not popular, it is inside the castle. I don't know when and who will pass by.

Considering Leonhardt's position and my status, only Leonhardt will be blamed. Don't do that. Absolutely not.

I tried to get out of hand, but that also failed.

Just like my action is like a cylinder, Leonhard-sama put in his power.

why. I don't want to bother you.

I'm more impatient and almost cry like a child.

Even if you squash and distort your face, Leonhard will not let go of your hand.

"Princess"

I'm called and raise my face.

Looking at Leonhardt's expression, I stopped moving.

If you were comforted with an adult face that calms the child as usual, you probably had more resistance. But it was different.

Why can you reject someone with a much more painful face than me?

"If you're scared, you can say you're scared."

After a moment of silence, Leonhardt opens his mouth.

I was imagined by words I did not expect.

"Please say painful if painful, painful if painful. Please, do not try to hide."

I am surprised at Leonhard, who is unusual and desperate.

The hand that is grabbed strongly is a bit painful.

"I don't want to protect only your life."

I can't imagine what you're saying.

If it was Leonhardt as usual. If he was calm and able to afford an adult, I could expect that it would be a word to reassure me.

But Leonhard is different now.

"I want to protect not only your life, but your heart, and all of your loved ones, but I'm a helpless dull man, so I might not even notice if I'm hidden. I don't want to believe in the word "OK" and be irreparable. "

I'm so surprised that I can't speak. The bleeding tears were withdrawn.

Looking at me with her eyes rounded, Leonhardt lowers her eyebrows.

"... I really didn't want to talk about such a miserable story. I've seen you look like a good guy, hundreds of times the real thing, so I didn't want to be disillusioned. I thought it was much better to be disappointed than to regret. ''

Like a bitter smile, Leonhardt, I shake my head reflexively.

No such thing.

There is no disillusionment or disappointment.

I don't say that I love you blindly.

Since, at this time, my heartbeat was pulsing greatly. To put it simply, it was faster than ever.

But Leonhardt smiles bitterly as if he accepts my denial as just a social order.

"You are still kind."

"No ..."

I want to deny, but I can't find the words.

Why my vocabulary disappears in front of Leonhardt-sama?

Once you get stuck in words, you will surely hear any words lying. It just sounds like a follow.

No, no.

It's not a word that comes from kindness that cares for you, or something like that. I really love you, so it's not a good story to accept any kind of you.

I just fell in love.

I just pierced my acupoint.

"The real thing is thousands of times better than I imagined, so ...!?"

The leaked words are the true intentions.

But I didn't mean to. To be honest, I did not intend to convey such a direct word.

I noticed that my real intention was aloud while I was worried.

He was childish and made a silly statement. Moreover, it's like proclaiming to the person that he is always paranoid.

I am drawn. Absolutely drawn.

But no matter how long you wait, there is no word from Leonhardt. The connected hands remain as they are.

I was terrified, and I was amazed.

Because Leonhardt who covered his mouth with his unconnected hand was bright red.

Wandering his gaze, he coughs to make repairs.

"... it's an honor ..."

It is as if your voice is smaller than usual, indicating that Leonhard is shy.

I go down without knowing what to do. I completely lost my timing to release my hand.

I'm glad to cry, even if I'm awkward.

Even though I was scared of the danger of my life. What am I cash?
