"clang--"
The hotel door was closed, and Aize, his face covered in bruises, was quietly crying in a corner.
Elsie: ┐(′-｀)┌
So, is he just forgetful?
[Azer says he feels uncomfortable if he doesn't use the Death Knight's Will for a day.]
So he was beaten up by Isai.
The enemy's hunting mark rendered Aze's charge ineffective, and with the heavy shield blocking the way, Aze fell off his horse.
Then came close-quarters melee combat. How could Azer possibly defeat Isaiah, who had just returned from the border? He was immediately beaten bloody.
If it weren't for Pastor Tiasso's timely intervention, his face would have been ruined.
"Baron Aize, have some water before you cry!" Connor added insult to injury.
Aize: (￣┰￣*)
...
“Brother…” Elsie clutched her skirt and leaned closer.
"Waaah... Little sister still cares about me the most!" Aize was very gratified.
"You're so weak..." Elsie finished him off with a second blow.
That night, Aize tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. No one knew how long he howled in bed.
At the urging of the narrator, a certain Elsie sneaked into his room and listened to him cry until he fell asleep.
[Wait, what encouragement? You clearly wanted to come yourself, you made it clear beforehand that it had nothing to do with me!]
"Then I'll leave?"
[Hmm, don't forget Windsor's invitation.]
"Of course, so does that mean you agree to me being with Windsor?"
Go ahead, and I, your father, will generously allow it.
Elsie certainly wouldn't continue arguing with the narrator, lest the other person get angry and block her view with a pop-up window.
As a morally upright narrator, I would never do something so despicable!
"I absolutely refuse to believe that you're saying this!"
...
Wearing her pretty little dress, Elsie admired herself a little in front of the mirror.
"Wow, I look absolutely stunning!"
The lovely Elsie has decided to embark on a moonlit journey. This is the first time she hasn't visited Kaelin at night; perhaps Kaelin is currently waiting for her arrival in the warehouse.
[But Windsor's charm clearly surpasses Karin's, so has Miss Karin... fallen out of favor?]
Is this...is this a fair way to put it?
At this moment, Elsie had already arrived in the kitchen, peeking out and meeting Ferry's gaze. Ferry gave her a loving look.
She was preparing breakfast for tomorrow. As for Elsie wanting to go out with Windsor... wouldn't that be too dangerous for Elsie?
If Elsie gets into danger, she won't be able to escape responsibility!
"Okay, but you have to come back soon~" Firi squatted down and made a pinky promise with Elsie.
"Okay!" Elsie ran off.
Connor was chatting with Leon outside the hotel when he watched in shock as Elsie sprinted towards the distance.
That speed! Faster than an adult running at full speed!
"Connor, I think I've had too much to drink." Leon rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing.
Connor nodded, but then felt something was off. He looked at the juice in his glass and fell silent.
So... you can get drunk from drinking fruit juice?
Wait! Wasn't that my lord who just ran past? She's all alone!? Huh!?
Connor immediately realized what was happening and wanted to chase after her, but he didn't know which direction Elsie had run off to.
"Oh no!" Connor regretted his carelessness. How could he have thought Elsie was so docile?
She's just a child!
Children's playful nature is hard to change, and they can easily get into danger if you're not careful.
"Brother Lyon, there's no time to explain. If I don't bring my lord back before dawn, please be sure to inform Baron Aize!"
Lyon nodded in response: "Go quickly!"
"Wait, take this with you!"
Leon shoved a mithril dagger into Connor's hand and said, "Protect the young lady."
The mithril dagger is engraved with the Tilan family crest, and the pattern is extremely beautiful.
“This is my mission!” Connor’s eyes were firm, then he turned and chased after them.
...
"Da da da~"
On a dark night devoid of sunlight, Elsie embarked on a moonlit journey with Windsor.
We don't know what dangers we'll encounter along the way. Perhaps it will just be calm and peaceful, or... is this really just a small haven on a side trip of our journey?
Hopefully, she hasn't forgotten her mission.
"Wait? I have a mission?"
In the empty square, Elsie sat by the fountain, and occasionally couples would come and toss in wishing coins.
[Oh! It seems Elsie has forgotten her mission... Hmm... Hmm? Alright! It seems we need to go over it a bit.]
From the day she was reborn, her life was destined to be extraordinary. The war in the south was waged by the Tilan and Shia families, and perhaps Alan's wrath would burn the entire south to the ground.
Elsie knew she had to...
"Stop my father whom I've never met?"
She must sacrifice her own family for the greater good and become the Queen of the South!
"..."
"ah?"
Is the change really that fast?
Therefore, Elsie must pursue the Blood Crown, become the ruler of the continent, and bring peace back to the world.
With this noble ideal in mind, she set off.
"Ah! I know, I know!" Elsie seemed not to have listened at all.
At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from afar, and a squad of four guards escorted Windsor to the square.
She glanced at Elsie and smiled, "Sister will take you out of town for a stroll!"
"Yay!" Elsie cheered as she climbed onto the horse's back. Although she was small, she was strong enough to do many outrageous things.
The guards standing by ignored her; as Windsor's personal guards, they only paid attention to dangerous matters, and Elsie was clearly not one of them.
"Hold me tight," Windsor reminded Elsie.
Elsie closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around Windsor's waist. Soft, small, and fragrant—it felt so good!
Rachel, standing beside Windsor, frowned, somewhat puzzled. She leaned closer to a guard and asked, "Doesn't Princess Windsor dislike the Tilan family?"
Although the sound was very soft, Elsie could still hear it and immediately pricked up her ears to listen.
"The princess has her own plans, why should you interfere?" The captain of the guards glared coldly at Rachel.
"Tch!" Rachel glared back.
However, Rachel was right; the captain of the guard was also puzzled, as Windsor's behavior was completely different from what it was like inside the castle.
Windsor had repeatedly spoken at royal gatherings about Ellen's atrocities and expressed her dissatisfaction with the Tilan family.
It seems that in her eyes, every member of the Tilan family is a bloodthirsty demon!
But at this very moment...
“Let me tell you, there’s a royal hunting ground next to Mirror Lake City. Let’s go there before the winter hunt starts! It’s beautiful! Trust me!” Windsor whispered.
"Zun Du, fake Du?" Elsie tilted her head.
“Zun du zun du!” Windsor nodded.
...
In a corner, Jack covered his eyes and cried, "I've been watching him all day, Master, I haven't slept a wink!"
"I don't understand why some children don't sleep at night!"
"I don't want to work overtime tonight!"
