304 Sometimes Sweet.

About a dozen minutes before Ein returned to the mansion.

In one of the mansion's rooms, Olivia was glistening with overlapping paperwork, but her fingers stop in a report.

"- Is that, Master Olivia? Can I help you?

"I had a report that I was a little concerned about. I'm helping, but I stopped... I'm sorry."

"No. Uh, by the way, what are you reading... Aah! Are you talking about the mural on the ruins of Heim?"

"... of the Duke of Forth family, like a report of a child who was a classmate of Ain"

"It's amazing - that. He wrote it down because it meant something, and he looked like Olivia, didn't he?

Lili's attitude is only as usual and I can never feel any more meaning in her words.

I took a peek at Olivia while I was doing my job.

"Hey, can I just ask you one thing?

"Yes, yes -?

"- Is this report also being delivered to Warren?

"Uh... you haven't arrived that way. It was something that could be processed at my stage, so it has not arrived under Your Excellency's … Warren. But what's wrong with that?

When you ask back without knowing the sincerity of the question,

"Well, don't worry about it."

Olivia cut a piece of paper without touching it.

I still have the mural report, but she cleaves it in turn from the report she glanced through.

"Become... what are you doing!? Dear Olivia!?

"Do you have a replication of this? No?"

"I don't... What? No, no, no! Why did you suddenly do that?"

It was Olivia who kept cutting, but at one stage she stopped her hand.

Lili is confused about what she is looking at and her sad, homesick face.

"Lili. Forget what I just saw here and that there was this report. Okay?"

"... I can't accept"

"I wonder why?

"I have an obligation to retain information. So no matter how much Olivia wants..."

Then Olivia approaches Lili, who says, "Then -" and sits at her desk.

When I glanced at him, I could not imitate him very well to my town daughter, and now I saw him with glossy eyes that I could not imitate to Krone and others.

"In the name of Olivia von Istalica, I issue a royal decree. I forbid you to speak out about the report I asked for, except when His Majesty or Ein asked for an answer. Okay?"

"... why? Why would you give a royal decree to a mural like that...?

"I haven't had my orders answered, which one?

"There's no way you can refuse that. I can't believe you could speak when His Majesty or Ein intervened... too hand-wound."

"Pfft. Thank you, Lili's things are very clear and helpful."

Lili thinks. Olivia must behave badly.

If you really want to keep it a secret, you should hide this information by repeating small hand-wrings without using any royal decree.

But I guess she hated the debacle that could arise there.

Therefore, a royal decree was used quickly to prevent anyone but Ain and Silvard from intervening.

"I just want you to keep in touch. Leonard told me not to tell you anything about the investigation…"

"... okay, but do we need to do that and protect it? I think it's just a mural, but you're telling me that the painting was like Olivia?

"What you need to know and what you don't need to know... if Lili has done many covert assignments, you know what that means, right?

It's still weird.

No fool thinks it's relevant, even if someone resembles Olivia in the mural.

Because I have a past where I married Heim, but it's clear that Olivia is not as old a person as she was written in the mural.

Lili went through more than she could ever count to be unconvinced, but it was also the first time that matters were as unpredictable as they were today.

"Why don't you tell Master Ain too?

Second, she told me to try.

- Then,

"Yeah, sure."

"... I see, do you want to come"

After all, Olivia is royal again.

Similar to Ein, no, it's more like Ein may have resembled her, but it's as powerful as it was before him.

After swallowing cockroaches and saliva, I return to work with a flat face.

As Olivia gently leaves Lili, she sits on an angled couch from which she cannot see her face.

Eventually, he turned his nostalgic gaze to the illustration of the report.

"- I miss you"

The exhaling whine didn't even reach Lili, and disappeared with her luster.

? ? ? ?

Ain the next morning, as an example, worked in paperwork before the sun rose.

However, let's just say I was happy that the jam that came out for breakfast was made of my own power and I was able to beat my tongue with that product version.

In a small study in Ain's own room, the two were sitting next to each other for some relaxing time.

"... Hey, Krone?

"- What?

Baltic jam was applied to the bread in a luxurious manner, and Krone let his cheeks wander.

The movement of a spoon with one hand on one cheek and the other is a purely blissful frontier.

It was naturally a blow that easily blew away the fatigue of the thoughts.

By the way, the time has already passed nine o'clock, and the busy air arrives from outside the mansion.

"Ah, Ain. Grandpa's got a thank-you letter and stuff for you, but what do we do?

"Hmm? Did you say thank you last night?

"Right. What do we do?"

"... I don't think it would be a good idea if I got cash."

"I think that's what Grandpa thought. It arrived like food handled by the Augusto Chamber of Commerce."

"Then let's get it to the people who are working on the festival. Tell me you got a plug from the Augusto Chamber of Commerce."

I dealt with it, but last night's incident also involves Ain and other investigations.

Therefore, Ain's judgment is good, salted plums.

"I guess it's time to support it. It's official time to bring Tiggle."

"... Ah, speaking of me. I met Lord Heim yesterday to talk to him."

"Uh...? Was it okay?

"Pfft, it's okay. Even that one's already calm."

As a matter of fact, Ein's sincerity is Tiggle's mental state.

The same goes for the previous edges, but I was slightly curious if they weren't knocked down with words, like the day of the talks, but as far as Krone's grin goes, he seemed calmer than I imagined and breathes.

"He said it. If I was as smart as I used to be, could you get me a proposal? And then they apologized for what happened."

"Uh... maybe it sounds like Tiggle. Various."

Seeing Ain to be returned flat, Krone pulls Ain's clothes with a annoying look.

"I'd be a little dissapointed too if they gave it back so normally, wouldn't they?

"You mean you want me to be jealous?

"... in a tangible way, that's what it feels like. Already! If you know what I mean, you can't ask me...!

Nevertheless, I can easily imagine her reply.

I'm not complacent, I think it's unconditional trust in her.

"I can't believe Krone's not next door, and Krone thinks it's the same."

In the end, Ain't the one who got stronger in love than before.

Easily shaken by his heart, Krone rose naturally reddening his cheeks and rode on top of it Ain sitting in a chair.

Sitting opposite each other, her hands are turned to Ain's neck.

"I said what I thought was a troublesome woman myself, and you're sweet"

"I'm not nice to anyone. It's special though."

"Liar. Ain't always sweet,"

"... I was wondering if you could help me with the fact that I'm extra nice to Krone"

It was a satisfactory reply.

She brings her lips closer to Ain and sweetens to Ain as she pecks.

"You know, I'm actually good at fortune telling."

"Never heard of it before"

"So, I'm out saying I should take the day off from work. What do you say? Don't you think that's a nice fortune teller?

- Very good.

Her temptations are filled with sweet, alluring charms that make her forget everything and want to entrust it all.

Ein's hands turned nature around her back and Krone's body snuggled together without resistance. But Ain managed to stay sane just before he was corrupted.

"... fortune tells me you want to believe it, but it's also cool to try to defy that fate"

"I'm sorry, fortune tells lies. I just want to be with you... No?

- No, I can't. Rather good.

An attack reminiscent of the Battleship's main cannon was unleashed in the dying spirit, and Ain already made ready.

No, it's decided no. But the more you make me think that even if I'm just a little late... a woman named Krone is so handsome to Ain.

She sees Ain't like that and says it again at the end.

"Pfft - I'm lying. It's annoying for all of us, and you can't push our very own."

"You know, it's not a bad idea to leave it falling?

"Well, what do you say? But I'd be so happy if you'd come home soon."

Then, at the end of the day, he exchanges his mouth several times and Ain stands up holding Krone.

I walked like a prince holding a princess in a fairy tale as it were, letting her sit on the couch.

"Can I just keep working in Ain's room?

"Yeah, you can use it as you like"

"Then I'll let you take a nap here too."

I really don't feel polished about Krone's sweetness since I got back to Strom.

It was a welcome enough thing from Ain, but like today, it was difficult to be careful not to drown too much.

Then he weaves his coat feathers and Ain rendezvous with Tiggle just as he left the mansion.

With a tired look on his face on the long journey, he headed to work shoulder to shoulder.
