Chapter 31: 31

“But how do you know who killed him? How else do you know that he got killed?”

“They say he had his head cut off. Before he dies, there is someone screaming! I guess so, And the people who were working there saw strange people coming and going.”

Shannet slit her throat.

Whoa! creepy.. I rubbed my arm.

“Then you’re saying that there’s a high chance they set the fire? I’ve seen a lot of strange people coming and going, but all I’ve seen is a Triever face.”

“Yes! So, they started the search now. I wish they could catch the culprit… The surrounding area was burnt down, so I don’t know if they will be able to find it.”

“I wish they could catch the culprit sooner.”

I nodded my head broadly. However, it was fortunate that the fire went out and no one was seriously injured. Except for the hunting groundskeeper.

“Oh, so what about the festival? There is still time left.”

The festival is held for 7 days. I heard that a large amount of alcohol is sold here and grain trades are made here that make this festival important.

It was one of the passages that determined the profit of the land. Those who had prepared for a year had no choice but to be sad.

“… The people of the estate have been preparing for a year…”

“I don’t know about that either.”

Shannet shook her head gently. And the answer could be obtained from Cesare. Cesare, apparently at the scene of the fire all night, returned late in the afternoon.

“Cesare!”

“Daphne. Good job. Are there any injuries?”

“Me? You have to worry about me, what about Cesare!”

“I’m okay. We still have to work on the restoration, but no one was hurt. I think we will have to close the hunting grounds for a while.”

“Haah…”

“So that’s the thing, Daphne.”

Cesare wiped his tired face with his palm.

A sigh flowed out.

Restoration work is also hectic right now, but to end the festival like this, one year of farming would be a mess. The damage would be inflicted on the people of the estate and others .

I don’t know which rogue bastard set the fire, but it had to be dealt with immediately.

In addition, the hunting ground where the fire broke out this time was a place frequented by the royal family. If even a culprit is caught, you may hear some nonsense.

It was tiring, but it was an unavoidable inconvenience as an aristocrat belonging to a country.

However, since we couldn’t stop the festival, someone had to take care of the work for the young people who were frustrated.

And Joseph recommended Daphne.

 

‘Handed festival to Daphne? You said before, you said Daphne ran away because I gave her too much work, isn’t it?’

‘Of course it was. But thinking about it, I think that might not be the case. Didn’t Madam finish this festival after all? Maybe Madam thinks that if you don’t entrust her with work, you won’t recognize her!’

 

Joseph was always better than Cesare on the romantic side. So he came to think that he would do it again this time.

 

‘And Madam is the one who leads this territory together with you! I think you can always ask for help when you’re in trouble!’

Joseph’s eyes twinkled with excessive faith. He seemed impressed at the time that Daphne was able to manifest a base and put out the fire.

In fact, when such a fire broke out, it was common for people to pump water by hand or wait for the rain. The forest is vast and human power is limited.

But she’s thinking of putting out a fire by installing a pump! This was something that would go down in history. It will be recorded as the first human victory over nature.

Joseph was united in admiration for Daphne for doing so.

“Festival… you can take over. Oh, you can definitely say no if it’s hard. I’m serious. Joseph asked me if I could leave this to you. It’s not my opinion, it’s Joseph’s.”

Cesare looked at Daphne carefully.

Until the first day of the festival, Cesare and Daphne had maintained a good relationship.

There was also a romantic atmosphere… He thought the atmosphere was ripe enough to spend the night together again.

A sudden accident occurred and I passed it, but once this case was resolved, the opportunity would come again.

Even for that moment, he couldn’t ruin his relationship with Daphne.

Cesare didn’t want to spend a night alone anymore.

 

*****

 

Are you asking me with those eyes… 

Is it because he’s tired? It seemed to exude a sense of pity along with a decadent beauty.

And because of the situation, his eyes were pouring gloom.

That’s cool too. Wow, really. This man! This man is my man!

“Daphne?”

Oh, I forgot to answer because I was so obsessed with his appearance.

“Yes! I will do it!”

What can I do when you ask me with such face?

Anyway, I didn’t think it would be that difficult as I was in charge of the festival until the end of the day.

Shouldn’t it be enough to win people’s hearts, get the festival to resume, and prepare something to grab the attention of the guests?

“… Thank you, Daphne.”

“No need to say that between us!”

As I shouted with a bright smile, Cesare muttered with a blank expression.

“Between us…?”

“Yes! between us. We are a couple! Let’s be together forever!”

Cesare’s cheeks reddened for some reason.

What?

 

*****

 

After taking a bath and changing into new clothes, Cesare, who came to the office, sat blankly. Seeing Cesare like that, Joseph made a puzzled face.

Why are you here again?

Meanwhile, Cesare was contemplating Daphne’s words the whole time.

‘Between us… between the couple…. That’s what she said, right?’

Cesare blushed once again. We are a couple! Although we were close enough to be grouped into that category… Hearing it come out of her mouth, I felt a little more intimate.

It felt as if the existence of Cesare became very close to Daphne.

‘Yeah, we were married.’

Joseph looked at him strangely.

He must have heard something from Daphne again. It wasn’t a big deal, but I guess he’s overinterpreting it and making his heart flutter by himself. I guess it all

But Cesare seems to be in a good mood, so it would be good to tune in appropriately.

“Did something happen?”

Cesare glanced at Joseph. Joseph has always been a good adviser. Didn’t I hear that we were married couple after giving her work? There would be no such sweet language in the world.

“Puff…”

“Your Majesty?”

“Daphne tied me. Daphne said that we were together. And she said we were a married couple.”

So why?

Joseph kept his mouth shut. Cesare pointed it out a little differently, so I thought it would be better to just nod.

“Isn’t that really referring to a close relationship? And it’s a couple. A married couple lives together for the rest of their lives. And having a child… Growing old together. A child, it would be good with one daughter and one son. No, both daughters are fine. What do you think?”

You mean making a family plan with just one word?

Again, Joseph nodded, keeping his mouth shut.

“Hmm… The child just needs to be healthy. I think two is enough.”

“But… A child who resembles Daphne would be fine.”

Cesare answered seriously. It would be lovely if the child resembles Daphne, whether it be a son or a daughter… 

‘Lovely…?’

Cesare covered his mouth.

“Ugh!”

Cesare’s ears were very red as he coughed. Joseph stared blankly at it.

“Yes. whatever… It would be great.”

Yeah, as long as you like it.

Originally, the aide could wish for anything for the happiness of his master. This much, well… 

Joseph shook his head slightly.

Gabriel straightened his hair.

On the way to meet Daphne. I wish everything was perfect. And I thought it would be good if I could give Daphne trust.

I have to prove that I have the strength and ability to save Daphne from there.

After putting on the medal engraved with the imperial family crest on his shoulder, everything was ready.

The steps to Burstoad are light. I’m sure I’ll be with Daphne when I go back here.

He wanted to save the poor Daphne from him and make her happy. Daphne cared for him and showed kindness throughout Gabriel’s enslavement.

Gabriel wanted to protect that warm, beautiful heart.

In that sense, Cesare is eliminated. How could someone like Cesare make Daphne happy?

The man is self-righteous and cold. He was the one who would freeze Daphne’s warmth.

“Let’s go now.”

“Yes, His Majesty the Crown Prince.”

He was shabby when he left, but now no one will find the shabby Gabriel again.

He was the only Prince of the Hylister Empire.

In other words, he became the new Crown Prince. Because his brothers were taken away by the grim reaper.

Having succeeded in erasing the past, Gabriel was reborn as a perfect being.
