I got on the carriage again and took 30 minutes to the destination villa.

“Nonelia-oneesama’s wedding is in three days. If we leave tomorrow morning, I think we will arrive at the royal palace in the evening.”

When I went to the Kingdom of Tenar, I arrived at this villa in one day from the royal palace.

“Still, it’s better to arrive at the royal palace as soon as possible. Let’s leave early in the morning tomorrow as well.”

Gresis-sama proposed it.

“That’s good. There may be a surprise attack again.”

Timir-oniisama also has a point.

There’s nothing better than being careful.

“I’m sorry, because of me.”

Nonelia-oneesama, who was kidnapped and had a hard time, doesn’t need to apologize.

“We came to attend the wedding of sister-in-law and my brother. If there is no leading role, there is no point in coming. The purpose is the same, so don’t worry about it.”

“Thank you.”

When I took my sister-in-law’s hand and smiled, she returned a beautiful smile.

When the discussion calmed down, the carriage arrived at the royal villa.

At the entrance the butler, Simon, and the chamberlains, who run the royal villa, greeted us all at once.

“Your Highness Lilith, welcome back. Your Highnesses of the Kingdom of Tenar, thank you very much. I’m glad that Miss Nonelia is also safe.”

I was relieved to see the faces I saw for the first time in a long time.

“I sent a fast horse to His Royal Highness Remilio. The injured are also resting. The attackers will be on their way to prison now.”

“Thank you, Simon. I look forward to working with you.”

“Please leave it to me.”

Simon knows about Healer, so he is also reliable and entrusted with the injured.

“Then, let’s leave at 6 o’clock in the morning tomorrow.”

It was probably around 10 o’clock at night when we confirmed the meeting time and headed to the guest room.

As soon as I entered the room, Gresis-sama hugged me from behind.

“Haa—. . . Finally.”

I heard a long sigh.

“Gresis-sama? What’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?”

Yesterday, he rescued Nonelia-oneesama, and today there was a surprise attack, and he assisted the guard knights with his sword. And we will leave early tomorrow too.

As expected, Gresis-sama may also be tired.

“No, there’s nothing wrong with my physical condition. Just let me do this for a while.”

The face of Gresis-sama, who is lying down with his eyes closed, is around my neck.

I was just riding in a carriage, and I even healed the knights, so I shouldn’t have been sweating that much.

But it bothers me.

“I’m sure I’m dirty. Why don’t you at least do it after taking a bath?”

As if he suddenly came to himself, Gresis-sama let go of me.

“I’m sorry. In terms of dirt, I’m dirtier.”

I didn’t mean to say that, but I said it in a way that made him misunderstand.

“Just because I was concerned, Gresis-sama is not dirty.”

I turned around and hugged Gresis-sama.

“No, I fought, and I’m absolutely dirty. Lilith will get dirty, so let go.”

“I don’t care, and I won’t let go.”

I became a little stubborn, put my arms around Gresis-sama’s waist, and clasped my hands so that it wouldn’t come off.

“I care. As Lilith said, let’s do it after taking a bath.”

When I looked up at his face, I was laughed at.

“I understand, so let go. With this, I’ll have to hold you and take you to the bath with me.”

“Eh?”

Take a bath together!? Impossible, that’s too embarrassing.

I released my arms in a hurry.

Gresis-sama, who took a bath first, must have been lying in bed and waiting for me.

When I got out of the bath, Gresis-sama was falling asleep.

I’m sure he’s tired.

When I let the maid go and gently rolled next to him, his arm stretched out like an arm pillow, as if he sensed my presence.

When I put my head on it, the elbow bends and I am drawn to Gresis-sama’s chest.

It’s such a common occurrance that I guess it’s already an unconscious habit.

“Good night.”

I put my cheek to his chest and closed my eyes.

The next morning, Gresis-sama, who came back to the guest room from training, was a little bitter.

“It was morning when I noticed it. There were a lot of people in the way, and we couldn’t touch each other much, so I wanted to enjoy Lilith a little more.”

I was hugged unexpectedly and my ear was bitten.

“Hya!”

I was surprised by the sudden event and involuntarily raised a strange voice.

“Oh, well, Gresis-sama. . ., that, it’s about time to meet up. . . .”

“I know. I’m sure a little more is fine.”

Until just before leaving the room, Gresis-sama didn’t stop hugging me while holding my ear with his lips.

What should I do, I don’t think I’ll get rid of the heat on my face for a while.

Poor Gresis. He really doesn’t want to share Lilith.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
