Episode 121
“Huh? Our Master?”
“Yes. She’s already preparing to relocate the magic tower to the Northern Mountain Range.”
That was right. Right after the Northern Mountain Range became Lionel’s territory, I immediately contacted Master and made plans to relocate the main tower of the Frost Magic Tower.
Though it took time to coordinate various things, once we stamped the documents, everything proceeded smoothly. Moving the tower’s building was simple since it could be done instantly with magic.
‘Still, she said she had a lot to organize and couldn’t leave the north for a while.’
That’s why Master couldn’t attend my wedding.
Well, she sent Snowy instead, so it was ambiguous to say she didn’t attend.
‘Honestly, I think it was fortunate she didn’t come in person…’
She was the owner of the Frost Magic Tower, after all. In front of such a person, no matter how well I hid Ruda’s existence, she might eventually discover it. Along with the fact that Ruda was my spirit familiar.
Actually, that was something that would be discovered eventually. …It would be discovered, but.
‘I don’t know. I’ll just hide it as much as possible and worry about it when I get caught!’
Shaking off my worries, I hugged Father tightly, who had finally stopped crying.
“Then I’ll really go now.”
“Yes, sniff… At least I feel somewhat relieved that Rose is going with you.”
“Don’t worry, Father. I’ll take good care of Cecil.”
“Take care of me! I’m an adult now too!”
“Right. From what I can see, once you go north, Cecil will probably be taking care of you more often.”
“It’s not ‘you,’ it should be ‘older sister’!”
“I’m the older brother!”
I found it amazing that these two would fight about this issue for their entire lives, but thinking about when I’d see them arguing about this again after today made my heart feel heavy too.
“Hiiing…”
“Cecil?”
“No, sniff, I’m fine.”
If I started crying here too, our entire family would obviously become a sea of tears.
I desperately held back my tears and smiled brightly at my family members who were looking at me with surprised expressions.
“I’ll write letters when I arrive in the north! Everyone stay healthy!”
Then, without even waiting to hear my family’s responses, I quickly ran and climbed into the carriage.
Uni, who had gotten into the carriage first, looked surprised when she saw my tearful face.
“Your Highness?”
“Don’t comfort me. Don’t do anything. I might really cry.”
Uni nodded with a smile as if she understood the situation.
“Would you like a glass of cool juice before we depart?”
“Yes…”
Uni poured me a glass of juice and also prepared some chocolate for me.
As I chewed the sweet chocolate, my gloomy mood settled considerably.
Thanks to that, when my tingling nose had calmed down and my moist eyes had dried, the carriage door opened.
It was Lionel.
“Lionel?”
“We’ll be departing soon. Are you all ready?”
“Yes, we’re all ready.”
Lionel nodded at my words and said something to the attendant standing beside him. Then he got into the carriage and sat next to me.
‘…Huh?’
Feeling puzzled, I looked at Uni sitting across from us, and she seemed just as surprised.
She asked Lionel on my behalf.
“Your Grace. Are you planning to travel by carriage?”
“Yes.”
Lionel nodded, and I asked him in surprise.
“You’re not riding a horse? Sister told me that knights usually can’t stand being in carriages because they feel stuffy after riding horses.”
“Why would I feel stuffy when you’re by my side?”
“Pardon?”
“I prefer sitting next to Liri rather than riding a horse alone.”
“…Oh, is that so?”
Well then, we should ride together. Riding a horse alone would be lonely.
‘He really has a talent for catching me off guard from unexpected places.’
While I was fanning myself with my hand to cool my flushed cheeks, Uni cleared her throat.
“Then I’ll take a different carriage.”
“Huh? No, there’s no need to…”
“Your Highness. I do have some tact, you know.”
Uni glanced at me as if asking why she would need to squeeze between newlyweds, then quickly got out of the carriage, and Lionel didn’t bother to stop her.
So only the two of us remained in the carriage, and shortly after, the carriage began to depart.
I opened the window and stuck my head outside.
“Everyone take care! Make sure to write back when I send letters!”
“Yes, you must write a letter as soon as you arrive in the north!”
“You’re taking the communication orb, the communication orb! Contact us with that!”
I waved my hand vigorously until I could no longer see my family’s faces, then straightened my posture when Lionel said it was dangerous to keep sticking my head out the window like that.
As I was about to close the window, Ruda popped out from inside Lionel’s jacket.
“Chirp! Chirp!”
“…Huh? You want to go with Krieg?”
“Chirp.”
“Alright. If you hide well in Krieg’s mane, other people won’t notice you.”
After letting Ruda out and closing the window, a quiet silence settled in the carriage.
I didn’t bother to look sideways to see what Lionel was doing.
Instead, I gradually moved closer until our shoulders were touching, then reached my hand over to his thigh, fumbling to find his hand and interlacing our fingers.
And I rubbed the back of his hand with my thumb.
‘…Did he understand?’
While pretending to look out the window, I rubbed the back of his hand once more in case he hadn’t noticed, when suddenly a black shadow quickly crossed my vision.
At the same time, a hand cupped my cheek and turned my head to the other side, and in an instant our lips met.
It happened so suddenly that I couldn’t breathe properly for a moment.
I barely managed to push away Lionel’s shoulder as he tried to go deeper, and the moment our lips separated, I took a big breath first.
Lionel, with his eyes lowered, brought his lips to mine again as soon as he confirmed I was breathing.
As if he wouldn’t allow me to escape anymore, his large palm cupped the back of my head and pressed firmly.
All I could do was grip tightly onto our interlaced hands while bunching up the hem of his clothes in my fist.
‘This feels good…’
Now Lionel no longer transferred mana when kissing me.
There was plenty of time to transfer mana without doing it then, and also because neither of us had the leisure to exchange mana while kissing anymore.
“Now… now stop.”
I pushed away Lionel’s shoulder, seizing the moment when our lips briefly separated for breathing.
Though he looked reluctant, he obediently moved back.
I leaned against Lionel with my weakened body and caught my breath.
“Is it difficult?”
“Yes… Don’t talk to me.”
“Tell me when you feel better.”
So you can do it again when I feel better?
‘He really loves kissing so much.’
Of course I liked it too, but Lionel was a bit excessive.
‘At this rate, after we consummate our marriage, I really might not be able to leave the bedroom, right?’
This was all because of the Emperor who had made Lionel follow a high school senior’s schedule since childhood. If his stamina had been a bit lower than now, I wouldn’t have worried about this at all.
“Ahem. Since we’re doing this because we like each other, if I say I don’t want to, you have to stop immediately like you did earlier. Got it?”
“Yes, I understand.”
Ah, he really listens so well.
He’s a man who has the ability to start a rebellion and actually drag the Emperor down from his throne if things go wrong, but seeing him act like a gentle large dog in front of me was incredibly pleasing.
I wanted to give him a kiss as praise, but I held back since we’d probably end up just kissing for a while if I did.
I rested my head on Lionel’s shoulder and fiddled with his hand as I spoke.
“We have plenty of time, so shall we make some family plans?”
“Family plans?”
“Yes. How many children would you like to have later, Lionel?”
“I’ve never thought about it.”
“Then let’s think about it now. For reference, as long as my body is healthy, I’d like to have many. Maybe three or four?”
“Isn’t that too many?”
“Hey, how is that many? …Though thinking about being pregnant four times does seem like a lot?”
Would I end up collapsing and saying I can’t do it twice after actually giving birth once?
Still, I should have at least two, right? I was thinking about various things when Lionel, who had been silent for a while, finally opened his mouth.
“Honestly, I don’t really understand the difference between having one child and having many. It’s just that the number increased… that’s all.”
“Hmm, it might not feel real yet. Then how about thinking of it this way?”
“How do you mean?”
“Think of having four Rudas.”
“Four Rudas…”
At that moment, an indescribable expression appeared on Lionel’s face.
