Whoops. Judging from the unexpected arrivals, even the letter looks like a ham.
‘Turn on the blinker and come in.’ I want to say, but honestly, I think it’s my fault.
“This seems like a personal letter. I’ll read it separately…”
“No, Mr. Ega?! I don’t think this is a problem that can be glossed over with such words right now?”
“Is that what I just read? Is that right?”
“Well, I feel like I know something I shouldn’t know.”
So I guess I’ll have to put up with this confusion. After all, people should always spare no effort to be thorough. Even if it creaks just for a moment, this chaos will happen.
Even Mr. Gin made a sad face when I got up, as if he had missed something interesting, but like a common sense person, he kept his distance until I read the letter.
Assilie looked away, wondering if it would be okay to read with him, but he shook his head with a light smile, indicating that he would respect Esmue.
The letter, which he began to read alone after obtaining everyone’s consent, was consistent with Esmuer.
[I never expected that the day would come when I would write these words in my spare time, but I’m counting on the reunion with you in the mood that I haven’t seen you for a month already. Even if I say that I have collected the moments with you, it is only a handful of time in my life, but it has shaken my entire life, so I don’t want you to forget that the responsibility is great
. Maybe.
[The series of events that you experienced as soon as you set foot in the kingdom came to your ears on the same day, but in order to solve this problem diplomatically, it was necessary to move with a little delay. By the time this letter reaches you, the trial will have reached the third day, and Ragnis will gradually be freed according to the royal family’s plan, but he will still play a role in scoping out the idlers of the royal family who are not happy with it. If you’ve been out of your temper and moved, it might be faster. Yeo definitely thinks so.]
I had already figured out a lot of things to say that it was truly Esmue. In a way, it might have been a much quicker solution to go through the gate backwards and grab onto Esmuer’s skirt.
As I read the next sentence while thinking about that, I couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
[I put my true feelings in the first sentence, keeping in mind the possibility of reading this letter in a public place. No matter how ignorant you are, no one will tell you to read a love letter. If it were you, I would like to tell you about the background related to this incident, thinking that this alone would have provided a situation where you could read this letter alone.]
How far does he live by predicting numbers?
I felt like my face was burning for no reason when I said that I had my true feelings, but apart from that, I can’t help but admire the fact that I used my hair to hide important content naturally.
What followed was something I now know to some extent. The relationship between Count Bossa and Ragnis. The royal family and aristocrats who use it. Even why Count Bossa took such a risk and took an action that seemed no different from a mistake.
[The person called Enbelde always moves with someone who will cover her sins. This time, he must have tried to pass that role on to Ragnis. If there was no variable called you, Ragnis would not be able to properly gather his strength and eventually would have come to a situation where he had to concede a lot to him, who is related by blood. It is said that the story has changed a little now, but from the standpoint of Enbelde, who has not yet given up on Ragnis, we cannot afford to let her have a strong position as a bridgehead with the Empire.
] The throwaway card that should be put up should be smaller and weaker than itself so that it can be handled at will.
Anyway, the reason why he tried to buy time and stop Ragnis from growing in size during the trial was because he still considered it useful.
For example, one day he will be dragged to the guillotine with all these excuses and charges for treason, giving him extra time to succeed in his treason.
[If it had been an ordinary aristocratic battle, Envelde’s plan would have worked. Of course, Ithiel’s royal family is guarded by two formidable tumbleweeds, so it can’t be said to be perfect, but it must have prevented her from becoming a bridgehead.] The two tumbleweeds
. I’m sure you’re referring to the Duke of Lesrom and the King.
[Of course, it didn’t work because we weren’t common. To be honest, if I expected this, it would be better to play a prophet rather than a nobleman, so it’s a bit far-fetched to judge his ability with this
.
It is said that he had the ability to overturn the table, aside from whether he could maintain it after that.
[Anyway, from now on, I will actively defend Ragnis, so if it is a situation where the court of Itthiel is more incompetent than I imagined and the outcome of the trial is bad, you can feel relieved.] If you could feel the warmth in the
writing It must have been a hot hot pack.
What followed was her personal impression that although she was a little sorry for Ragnis, she did not hate it because she felt that she had an excuse to invite her back to the empire sooner through this incident.
Contrary to the impact at the beginning, it was only when I reached the postscript at the end of the neatly concluded letter that I knew what the ring that came along with it was.
[I have no worries about physical prowess, and through the gauntlet, I have been prepared for magic to some extent, so this time I am preparing for the curse. It’s something I got in a hurry, so even if it’s not that great, it’ll definitely block the curse a couple of times, so wear it all the time.] A
ring with a curse shield. I am so moved that I want to shed tears.
To be honest, the design was simple yet expensive, so I was very worried about what to do if I gave it as an engagement ring, but thanks to that, I was able to wear it without any burden.
…But how did he know the circumference of my finger? Oddly enough, it fits my index finger.
In a situation where it was unclear whether there was any pressure or not, Asilie was the first to react when she put together the letter with a confused expression and turned around.
“Are you done?”
“Uh, noona. I wrote it in a hurry on purpose so that you could read it secretly because of the content behind it. I already knew the situation here.”
“Should I say it’s like an empire or a princess… What about that ring?”
“It’s a ring of curses.”
“Ah, that’s what we were talking about then.”
By that time, I’m sure you’re talking about the time when I fell after tearing off the head of an asshole. It must have been something that came up during a conversation between women.
“Mr. Ega? Can you explain the situation now?”
It was Rellie who reacted very positively from earlier. Haha, but now I’m invincible because I borrowed Esmuer’s wisdom.
“I wrote it down on purpose in preparation for the situation I am going through this time.
“…Ah. A lie.”
“It’s real.”
Of course, if Rellie asked if they really had no relationship then, they would be put in an atrocious situation where they would have to lie for real, but fortunately, the party responded with simultaneous disappointment, but did not particularly doubt it.
Awesome Esmuet!
“Then what about that ring?”
“Oh, the cursed shield is a ring. I think it was enclosed just in case.”
“Hmm… You live a very interesting life.”
“Somehow.”
“Somehow I think it’s so ridiculous to live that kind of life…”
Hmm? It’s a conversation that makes me feel deja vu for the first time in a while.
“Then, since it looks like the end is over, shall we leave, Eldmia-sama? Preparations are complete.”
I looked at Gis with an unreliable look in my eyes as he spoke calmly as if he had nothing to do with the subject he was sharing the same thoughts with the disappointed party.
If you think about it, even though it was for me, wouldn’t it have made my heart flutter if he hadn’t brought a letter?
“Why, why are you looking at me like that?”
“Eh. No. Let’s go back quickly. I suddenly have something to do, so I think it’s best to hurry.”
Even if the letter is second, the letter has to be delivered. This time, after saying goodbye to the other people who were feeling sorry for me, Asili and I got on top of the flying dragon with a slightly accustomed gesture.
“We will return to the capital once this side is settled, so let’s take a look at it once everything is settled. I didn’t drink properly today, but I need to get rid of the hoepo.”
“Haha. Okay. See you next time at the guild.”
Gaendal waved his hand while showing a kind smile, and the flying dragon flew up as soon as he promised the next one.
The results of today’s trial are also the results, but I’m really starting to wonder what kind of expression Count Bossat will make when he learns the story related to this letter.
