57. Noah Belleia (3)

Shione hesitated at my question for a long time.

Doesn’t he make a quiet, painful sound with his arms crossed? Then she suddenly crumples her expression and straightens it.

To sit back and quietly watch as all of the 50,000 ways to show condescension are condescension.

Soon, Shione, freed from her own thoughts, looked up at me with her eyes full of hesitation.

Paanhi

It’s not like I’ve mastered mind reading.

Get my face pierced. What do you do if you stare at me for so long? If you have a mouth, you must speak, speak.

Seeing him still looking like a child after eating 20 at Korean age, I almost let out a sigh.

Indeed. If that’s Shione’s charm, then that’s her charm.

I raised a white flag in response to her tenacious gaze and spoke to her first.

“Whether to fix it or cut it off. Have you decided?”

Shione nodded her head as if she had been waiting for these words.

“What would you like to do?”

“I….”

Shione slurred her words, unable to contain all of her words at once.

Frustration came over her as she looked uneasy, but fortunately, Shione quickly put on her determined expression.

“I don’t want you to cut ties with Noah. Rather… She may be my own greed, but she wants to unravel her messy relationship with him.”

Fortunately, Shione rather than avoiding and ignoring her relationship she ruined. She wanted to see it clearly and release it.

If that’s what Shione chose.

Although it was obvious that she would become a nuisance, feelings of pride and pride rose from time to time.

I lucked out with a light smile.

“How could Ainel-nim not have Siabelle, the next head of the household, but Sione-nim? Do you know if he brought all the nobles of the kingdom together to the princess’s coming-of-age ceremony, where they will discuss politics by belonging to their respective factions?”

“It is…….”

“Sione has definitely changed in the past half a year. She became more beautiful on the outside and stronger on the inside.”

The coming-of-age ceremony of the first princess to be held this time is not just a party to bless her princess.

It is an opportunity to catch the eye of her, who is being pointed out as the next king of the current kingdom and who has the legitimate right to succeed to the throne.

Since it is a place where all the nobles within the kingdom gather together.

If Siabelle, who was pointed out by Ainel as the next head of the Cianella family, had come here instead of Sione.

Under the name of Cianella’s knight who reached the level of expert at a young age, he not only solidified his place. Or secure one’s allies. Depending on the fate, you might even be able to catch the princess’s eyes.

But Ainel brought Sione, not Siabelle, to such an important position.

“Ainel-nim wanted to show Sione-nim’s changed appearance to various nobles. The head of the household said—”

As I tried to bring up the story Ai Nell had told me about her past, Sione could not help but concentrate more seriously.

“Shione-sama didn’t show his face once in the social circles for several years, and only rumors remained in Shione-sama’s place and became their gossip. Sione-nim said that she would like to dispel those rumors and take this opportunity to widely publicize her changed appearance.”

It would be correct to say that it was only to give Shione a chance.

Although the Cianella family is not a duke or marquis, but a family with the status of an earl, it is the best fortress to protect the kingdom from the demonic landscape beyond the Beltrin Mountains.

It’s a long tradition of the family, and it’s even a family that has produced great talent in every generation.

If it’s news about a member of Cianella who has a social awareness comparable to that of a fair number of marquises.

There is no choice but to spread rampantly in aristocratic society.

Thus, Shione’s evil deeds and her escape to her room must have spread and spread deep into the aristocratic society.

Ainel must be thinking of putting an end to the bad reputation spreading among them.

Did Shion finally understand Ainel’s intentions? Like the Milky Way rising on a summer night, her eyes began to glow softly.

Her calm and shining appearance was very beautiful.

“You mean your mother said that?”

“How could I make up the words of the head of the household and report them to Sione?”

“Yes, I mean… ….”

To Shione, who started repeating her words Ai Nell had said to her.

I’m starting to lose my mind.

“Do you have enough will?”

“Speaking of will.”

“In front of countless nobles. It is to change their thoughts by revealing the appearance of Shione-nim, who has changed according to Ainel-sama’s wish.”

The warm night in Shione’s eyes is beginning to end. The galaxies had disappeared, and her eyes no longer shone like silvery white hair.

From noble mtl dot com

That didn’t really matter much.

In Shione’s eyes, the night was passing, the sun was slowly raising her head, and her twilight was brightening.

“… I should Even when I cut her hair. And even then. I am determined to change myself.”

Before one knew it, Sione began to shine brightly as a princess of a noble count.

She said,

It was uncomfortable to watch. I just have to look at it now

I smiled at Shione’s bright appearance again.

“I’m glad.”

“What do you mean?”

“If you made that decision, you should be able to resolve your relationship with Prince Noah.”

“Ah.”

“If you hold that mindset in a corner of your heart right now and take away all the fragments of her past one by one. Shione-nim will be able to shine brighter than ever.”

As if Shione realized something at my words, she opened her mouth and looked at me.

I shrugged her shoulders and smiled mischievously.

“Until then. I will always be by Sione-sama’s side and help her.”

“… Suck!”

Shortly after I finished my words, Shione gasped and lowered her head to the ground.

Well… I think my words were a little cringe this time.

At any rate, Shione seems a little embarrassed by my unfamiliar words.

Shione, who hid my face with her hands for a while and avoided my gaze, looked up at me through her fingers and said,

“… Thank you.”

Shione said in a rat-like voice.

Thanks to that, she almost missed her voice and ignored it.

Fortunately, I was able to listen without missing anything, so I nodded my head at her words.

“Nothing.”

After my answer, silence continued for a while.

Since I haven’t seen it for a long time, I would normally just take in the silence like this and look out the window.

Inside the carriage today. Maybe it’s because there’s something ambiguous and subtle air current flowing between me and Shione.

Like this quietness, as well as the slight glimpse of Shione’s gaze.

I couldn’t get drunk on the outside scenery alone because I was worried about all of them.

Continue like this until the wagon stops. No, I thought it would be like this even after stopping, so I brought up a story to lighten the mood.

“Shione.”

“Ugh, huh? Why?”

Shione, who was taken aback by my question, looked at me with bright eyes.

“How about looking around the garden in the royal castle today or tomorrow? The count’s garden is excellent, but the royal castle’s garden is no less excellent… Sione-nim will be able to enjoy it to the fullest.”

“Mmm, sure…. If so, it’s a little late today, so let’s go see it tomorrow afternoon.”

“A good choice.”

Thanks to spending a little time talking about gardens and flowers, the atmosphere was relaxed.

Then I suddenly asked a question.

“Shione, can you tell me what kind of person Prince Noah is?”

“Noah? Yes noah… Speaking of Noah…….”

For a while, Shione brought up things about Noah from her memory.

“I don’t know what it will be like now… Noah admired the knight, and he was a boy who loved flowers and knew how to empathize with others.”

“If you admire knights and like flowers. You seem to have a lot in common with Shione-nim.”

“Maybe. It’s just that at that time I didn’t have much interest in flowers. Maybe about the article… We talked a lot.”

I quickly shook my head while Shione was lost in her memories.

I don’t know about the past, but now Shione likes flowers too. Shione and Noah have overlapping interests.

Not only does Noah have a beautiful appearance, but she still shows a favorable side to Sione, who chased her away after giving her a bad name.

Furthermore, Shione also wants to return to an amicable relationship with Noah.

‘Isn’t this an opportunity?’

Only if things go well. I thought that I might be able to link Shione and Noah together.

Shione said. I even confessed to Evan that I couldn’t marry without affection, and asked Evan to break it off.

There seems to be a lot of potential for Noah, who will have affection for each other.

Perhaps if the two of them are connected, I will protect my lips too. There won’t be any rumors spreading that I’ve been bewitched by Shione.

Could it be because of the sudden entanglement of thoughts?

I wondered if what I was thinking of was a plan with sufficient probability and logic, before it even went through verification.

Suddenly, I shouted at Sione.

“The more I think about it, the more Noah-nim and Sione-nim seem to get along well.”

“… What do you mean?”

“We have the same overlapping interests… He is also of good character. Isn’t Noah great in her looks too?”

Shione kept her mouth shut.

Because Shione looked at me as if asking me to say it one more time.

I continued without interruption.

“What do you think of Noah, Sione?”

“… Are you asking me how I treat Noah rationally?”

“Noah Belea-nim’s identity is also a status. Since you seem to be outstanding, it wouldn’t be too bad for Shione-sama to consider this as well—”

“No.”

As I was hesitantly expressing my opinion, I heard Shione’s cold voice that I had never heard before.

At the unusual voice of hers, I shut her mouth and looked at the situation.

Shione was looking straight at me with her cold, dead eyes.

… Why are you so straight up?

It’s unusual.

Seeing the current side of Shione that is completely different from the one I used to know. It’s to the point where I wonder if that person is the stupid Shione I used to know.

Gulp.

I swallowed her dry saliva at Shione’s changed atmosphere, which somehow made people nervous.

“It’s not even worth considering, so don’t talk about it anymore.”

Shione slowly rose from her seat.

She looked down at me and then she bent over me and brought her face closer.

Creepy. Quick.

At a distance where she could hear Shione’s breathing, she began to feel a sense of tension.

“Yeah… Don’t I already have you?”

Because I’m in a daze at Shione’s sudden action.

She grabbed my chin and lifted my head.

Where is Shione who smiled so cutely?

She was looking down at me, her gaze still cold, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

“… Sione-sama?”

No answer to my question.

Page.

She kissed my forehead arbitrarily and sat back down in her place.

“I’ll endure with this this time—”

What the hell. I stroked the still warm forehead and looked at Shione with a bewildered expression.

Seeing me like that, Shione let go of her expression and let out her voice as if she was satisfied.

“It’s not that I don’t know about men’s jealousy… From now on, I will try not to put myself to the test because of jealousy. Do you understand?”

“…Yes, I’ll be careful.”

Suddenly, I became jealous of Noah and became an unscrupulous servant who tried to test Shion.
