At night, I hugged Nier, who was next to , and apologised, Sorry, Nier. I havent been back for long, and I have to leave again.
When I returned to humanitys lands, Freya inford that I had to prepare to return to the Royal Capital to take part in the annual etings preparations. I originally wanted to stay with Nier for a little longer, but I wont be getting the chance. The ti we had together was just a few embraces long. We didnt even get to say much to each other.
Its all right Its all right. Dear, I understand Nier gently snuggled up on my chest then took in a deep breath before continuing, I understand that youre very busy. I told you, I want to be of help to you, not a burden to you. Dear, wherever it is you need to go, you just need to let know. I understand. I can look after myself.
I gently brushed against her head and next to her ear apologised, Sorry. Sorry
Nier gently stroked the hickey mark on my neck. She softly said, She could stand being separated from you for so long so I can, too My love for you wont change because of place or ti And I will love you even more after separation.
I stroked Niers head and tenderly replied, Look after yourself, Nier. Im worried about you most right now. Of course, that includes Lucia
Nier gave my thigh underneath a hard pinch, so I obediently shut up and didnt ntion Lucia in front of her. She looked at then kissed on my lips, and we were entangled together for a while. Nier then leaned away, and quietly pouted, Dear, dont ntion that woman in front of she even left a mark on your neck I want to leave one, too!
Before I could refuse her, Nier had bitten right next to Vyvyans mark. I had no tears to cry despite wanting to.
Am I going to attend the annual eting with three hickeys? Am I going to let all the vassal states see kiss marks on my neck? No way.
It appears that the scarf Mommy Elizabeth knitted is very useful. I just never imagined that the main function of the scarf would be to hide the kiss marks on my neck
Nier and I tightly embraced.
Due to her being pregnant, Nier didnt do that sort of stuff with again. To , thats a blessing. I am physically weak at the mont after all Vyvyan had taken a lot of my mana. However, Vyvyan managed to send back with just a wave of her hand this ti.
My luggage for tomorrow had been prepared. I didnt bring my guard unit along, as they were still recuperating from their injuries. Those who werent injured were also recuperating. It would be too much to ask them to sortie right now. Elizabeth, however, generously assigned two Valkyrie teams to act as my bodyguards.
I feel like the Valkyries are a lot less hostile to now. And with their sword instructor with , the Valkyrie teams here werent too hostile to , but were just maintaining a basic level of harmony. If Nier was here, Im confident I could make this team obey , since Nier holds a very high rank within the Valkyries squad.
Now, though, this team just needed to keep safe.
Valkyries are definitely qualified bodyguards.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good morning!
When I opened my eyes, I saw Luna standing before , holding my clothes with a smile. I froze for a mont, and then let go of Nier, who was in my arms, and rubbed my eyes. I stared at Luna. She lingered for a mont before looking at and asking, Your Majesty, are you bothered by sothing, or have I got sothing on my face?
No Its just I never thought youd be next to
Luna revealed smile as it was a matter of course then responded, What are you saying? I am your personal servant. It is a given that I would be by your side. Your Majesty, you are not quite yet awake, are you? I must apologise, though, as you cannot continue sleeping. The Valkyrie squad has begun the day. You need to have breakfast and prepare to head out.
Ah Wait didnt you go for a vacation?
I looked at Luna.
She shouldnt be here right now. She should be off on vacation. Though she did say shed be back today, I never thought shed be back now. Logically speaking, she shouldve been back yesterday afternoon, but I happened to be on the elven side at the ti.
I just took a bath at the hot spring outside the city. It was really comfortable. Luna smiled, and then touched her cheeks as if she brought the moisture and warmth from the spring out. She then titled her head with a smile and went on, I need to go with you to the Royal Capital this ti once again. I am your only personal servant, after all. Plus, you would be distressed without , right?
I sat up. Luna grabbed a towel from a basin by the side to wipe my body. I looked at Nier, who was sound asleep, and gave her a light kiss on her check before pulling the blanket over her. I then picked up my shirt and wore it on. Luna added the finishing touch by draping my cape over my shoulders and adjusting it. She then gave a few gentle pats on my shoulder and said, Let us go, Your Majesty. I am the only one coming along again this ti.
I grinned and responded, It wont be just us. My moms will also be coming. But youre right. Youre the only one around thats coming. I never thought that we could only get the opportunity in the desert.
I guess we could call it fate, Your Majesty. It was fortunate that I did not leave the city. Could this be considered our connection? It appears that god wants for us to be together a while longer.
Luna giggled then asked, What is the trip for this ti? Judging from Miss Freyas tone, it sounds as though is sothing very important Is it a good idea to not bring Miss Freya along for sothing so important?
I nodded and then explained, It cant be helped. Freya isnt my biological sister, so she cant take part in this sort of event for the royal family. But Freya prepared information on all of the vassal states for . Additionally, I have my moms, so itll be fine.
Uhm, okay then.
Luna has never questioned my arrangents. She nodded and then we left the room together. I looked at Nier, who was asleep, one last ti and hesitated for a mont before shutting the door gently.
Perhaps Im not particularly sad, because this was now the second ti were separating.
Moreover, since Nier wanted to be of help to , I wont make her angry with herself. Theres still ti in life. I dont need to mind separating once or twice like this. Ill stay by their sides all the ti afterwards, growing old together and watching our children grow up.
But before that ti cos, I need to work hard for my own dream, for our life in the future, and for the expectations my moms have.
Although I didnt complete the task in the desert perfectly last ti, Im certain I can leave a good impression with the vassal states this ti. They might not think I can surpass her majesty, but Ill make it so that they willingly complint , saying Hes Her Majestys child all right!
