Haunted Duke’s Daughter

Travel 1

About a year after graduating from school. Ray came to visit me as I was learning what I needed to do before officially succeeding to the title. I’ve had some touches, but I haven’t heard anything yet. I took him to my room for now.

In attendance is the semi-compulsory Sakura. I give up because I won’t leave when I say it.

“Actually, I was supposed to go home to Krabiles once.”

“Heh. Yes.”

“Ugh, yeah.”

…………

…………

It is silence. Sakura, who had sat up and grabbed cookies for the most part about what was wrong, is laughing, but what is it really?

“Yeah…… Later, I think I’ll have a formal contact… Father wants to invite Lilia.”

That’s again, suddenly. It is true that Lilia will succeed the Duke of Ardis family, but that is still a story ahead of her. Because now I’m learning something professional. In other words, Lilia is now the Duke’s maid, that’s all.

“Why do you want to call me?”

…………

“Oh well, I guess…”

Ray’s gaze pointed slightly at Sakura, which made him guess. I guess the Sakura thing has already been passed on to that country.

That may mean more of this in the future. Just a little, melancholy.

“You mean call Lilia because you want to call me but you can’t say it directly? You know, I hate it.”

When Sakura said so with plenty of dissatisfaction, Ray nodded as he smiled bitterly.

“I thought I would definitely buy the discomfort because of Sakura-sama’s character. This is how I came to explain it directly.”

“I see. Okay?”

Isn’t it too simple?

Lilia sighed small, turning to Ray.

“I want to talk to your father, too, so can you just wait a minute?

“Of course.”

“So Sakura. Listen to me.”

“Aye!

“Huh.”

Sakura stood up and left the room in a big hurry, Ray was dropping it off in a flash. What the hell are you so surprised at?

“Dear Lilia, Normally, we don’t use spirits for messages.”

That’s what Alisa told me waiting a little further away. Convinced. Normally, even if he was a magician, there could be no such thing as using spirits in a message. Because if they give up their love, that’s where it ends.

“Oh, you know, Lilia. Are you sure?”

“Nothing’s fine. Sometimes I have to work.”

“Yep…”

If they are other great spirits, change their attitude, of course, but this is fine because they are crusty. This distance is best with her.

Waiting with Ray, who is so perplexed, Sakura returned in no time. With a full smile, my father apparently gave me permission.

“I’m home! That’s all right!

“Oh, really?”

Obviously relieved Ray. Though the right to inherit the throne is low, I think we should make some more effort to hide our expressions, even though they are royal. I’m not even going to bother pointing it out to you.

“I’ll leave the duration of my stay and all that to Ray. Do as you please.”

“Huh? No, that’s… Are you sure?”

“Yeah, sure. But I’m never free either. I just wanted to ask you to be within your common sense.”

If I told him with a grin ‘smile’, Ray nodded as he blued his complexion.

“You’ve obviously tried.”

After Ray left, Sakura said, sipping a little tea. I don’t deny it because it’s a fact. In this case, I’m trying Ray rather than Krabiles.

Of course I understand the emotions Ray has here. That’s why I left everything to you. Ray should probably want to include tourist and other dates as well. in the form of my own guidance. I’m just looking forward to seeing how far we can incorporate that now.

“Bad girl. There’s a bad girl.”

“Oh. After this, I was thinking about going shopping for Dafu, but you don’t need it.”

“I’m here! I’m coming! Sorry!”

I only said a little mean because the rating of bad girl is unwillingness, and I was lightly apologized for. Sakura as usual, somehow, calmed down just a little.

As such, Lilia is now on a carriage to Krabiles. In the same carriage as Lilia are Alisa, the caretaker, and Ray, the guide. Sakura goes without saying, is.

The scheduled dates are one month each on the way and home, and the duration of the stay is also one month, for a total of three months. It’s a long or short period of time that I’m comfortable with.

I don’t know what to do, but I think Lilia and I would like to keep our faces together sarcastically more than anyone else, so it shouldn’t take long.

I also feel that the tourist dates are a little long, but Lilia has been learning things without a break lately, so it would be just fine for a vacation. Some guides are just fine. You shouldn’t be bored.

“Ray, by the way. Aren’t you a little too quaint?

“Huh? I guess so. I think it’s normal.”

Seeing Ray’s confusion, apparently he doesn’t act, he really thinks so.

There are six carriages to Krabiles. Lilias are on the third, and the fourth and fifth are supplies for food and other journeys. The first, second and sixth cars are ridden by soldiers of the escort. Furthermore, in addition to a group of carriages, soldiers on horseback were accompanied.

To be honest, I think there are too many escorts. When Lilia said that, Ray had an indescribable vague smile.

“Hmm…… Somehow, that’s it. I think Lilia is very poisoned by me.”

“What?”

“Frightened. No, you know what? A royal escort, isn’t it? And even a customer named Lilia? In case you think about it, there’s going to be a lot of people.”

“Oh, but in the meantime, when I went to see Tina, Alisa and Sakura were four of her soldiers.”

“Oh, ’cause it’s…”

Before Sakura said anything, all of a sudden the front was noisier. Should I say that Ray, who is instantly alert and sticks to the door, is just fine?

Someone rushed over to the footsteps and immediately a voice arrived.

“Your Highness! It’s a thief!

Calling Ray Your Highness sounds like a soldier from Krabiles. Ray smashed his tongue into the contents.

“How many!

“No, that’s…”

“Hmm…?

Mouthful soldier and neck tilting ray. Lilia, in contrast,

“Oh, you’re already caught”

I’m not even surprised because it’s the usual.

“Huh? Um, Lilia?

“Ignore it and move on. Because the spirits will carry you to the king’s capital.”

“Ha ha…”

Krabiles’ soldiers seemed puzzled, but Ray began to move as soon as he commanded him to do so. Exactly. They immediately follow Ray’s orders.

After all, Krabiles soldiers don’t seem used to these things. Just a little bit naïve. And I’m totally used to myself, just a little, sad.

“Um, Lilia, what do you mean?

To Ray’s inquiry, Lilia, without saying anything, points to Sakura.

“I instructed the attackers to catch them and transport them to the King’s Capital!

Doya! and proudly chested Sakura. I want to hit him.

“Why!?

“Yes, sir. Well, here’s the thing. I appreciate the escort, but I think it’s going to be pretty boring, at least for this time.”

“Er…”

There’s only one thing I can say from Lilia.

Get used to it.

On the road, there is an accomodation town every certain distance, but when it came to traveling in this number of people, it still didn’t work out as planned, so I decided to camp.

Lilia and Alisa are the only two people who use the tent that the soldiers set up for me. Sakura doesn’t count.

“Discrimination!

“Yes, yes, I’m sorry. More than that, lights.”

“Yes.”

When Sakura slapped her hand, a glowing light bulb appeared in the center of the tent. It gently illuminates the interior of the tent. Even more comfortably warms the interior so the blanket is at a minimum sufficient.

“Totally. I can’t believe you can shove this me into a tent like this in the next Duke. disrespect.”

“Haha. Lilia would have said a lot.”

“Hehe. Yeah, I’m not gonna tell anybody.”

Even now that I remember it, I was a bystander back then. It is a shameful past, but without it, there will be no present self either.

“You’re not even going to meet Sakura.”

“Mmm. Right. That makes it strange, doesn’t it? Yes, I’m sure this was fate…!

“Kimochi Terrible”

“Terrible”

Wear a blanket, grinning sawdust that swells your cheeks like a stubbornness. We are scheduled to arrive in Krabiles the day after tomorrow. I just want to rest while I can, more than I know what’s gonna happen over there.

“Sleep fast, Alisa.”

“Um, yes…… Is that okay?

“What. Are you unhappy next to me?

“No, you know, not like that……! So, if you’ll excuse me…”

Make sure Alisa’s in the blanket and signal Sakura. After Aisa, and a distracted reply, the light in the light sphere weakened and dimmed in the tent. Come on, let’s just say we go to bed early.

“Bu.”

“Yes, sir. Here.”

“Wow.”

When I call, Sakura dives into the blanket. She’s like a child forever. I feel terrified about it, but I don’t want it to change at the same time.

“I wonder what kind of country Krabiles is. Looking forward to it.”

“Yeah, right.”

Ray’s birthplace. Well, what kind of country is it?

Lilia closed her eyes and fell asleep, looking forward just a little bit.

It should be noted that because the road was going so well, the one-month itinerary has been shortened to two weeks and the Krabiles side is making a fuss, but Lilia will never notice it.
