Chapter 228

… Dangerous. For a moment I thought he was talking about my previous life.

I might be slightly excessively self-conscious. I must be careful to not overreact.

While I warned myself, saying, Come to think of it, Sion changed the topic.

"It's a matter from a few days ago. I spoke with His Highness. You… like His Highness Friedrich's abs, don't you"

"Lidi?"

"Pft…!"

At the words Sion fired, Will stared at me and I almost spurted out.

Wait wait wait.

Why was it exposed that I like abs not only to Freed but also to Sion.

"W, w… what makes you say…"

"What makes me, you ask. We had an opportunity to talk when we met at the chivalric order. It happened naturally"

"Naturally…"

How did it naturally come to talking about me liking abs!

I could tell my face dyed bright red from shame.

Will asked gingerly.

"Lidi… Is that right?"

"ah!"

No way, to hit me when I'm down!

It's not is that right, Will!

While crying in my heart about why I couldn't let it pa.s.s, I nodded, unable to deny it.

No matter what, I can't deny Freed's wonderful six pack…!

s.h.i.+t, hurray muscles!

Though in a shaking voice, I affirmed.

"Y… yup. As a matter of fact… B, because they're beautifully divided in six… I'd never seen such a genuine article… And…"

"I… I see. You like abs… I… see"'

"Will?"

It's me who should feel down, and yet upon hearing the story Will started feeling down for some reason.

"Eh? Why does Will feel down? Isn't it strange?"

"My abs are…"

"No, I'm not really asking anything of Will"

"ah!!"

I was upfront about my feelings, but Will made a shocked face like he'd been thunderstruck.

No, after all isn't that right. I have no expectations for Will's abs.

Even with Freed it was originally a coincidence. Certainly, when I saw them for the first time I got excited and since then I've been stealthily touching them, but… Aaa, my goodness. I had such a hunch, but after all it was noticed, huh…

After all, the feel of those abs is amazing!

Uwa, while I held my head, while watching me and Will, Sion let out a happy stifled laughter.

"Sion?"

"No, excuse me. I'm alright. I do not have abs split into six either. I apologize I don't suit Princess Consort's preferences"

"Aah jeez, Sion too! I'm saying!! Abs aren't particularly essential!"

Everybody's been saying abs so much I snapped a little.

Sion smiled even more.

"Oh? However, His Highness Friedrich said he maintains his abs for Princess Consort?"

"Freed!? What are you telling Sion!?"

Of course, I'm happy he maintains them! Come to think of it, recently Freed's abs have gotten more and more beautiful, however!

Normally you wouldn't think that was for myself…!

I felt like I'd collapse on the spot.

"Jeez… Jeez… What the h.e.l.l were you two talking about…"

"Let's see. Mainly about you"

"Why were you talking about me. I don't understand…"

I hung my head, crestfallen.

Then, Sion said while laughing.

"Sorry. The talk has deviated a lot. You are now going towards the Chivalric Order, right? If that's alright with you, I will escort you there"

Truly, the talk had deviated incredibly.

Despite my exhaustion, I shook my head.

"I, I'm alright… I've been walking around here often recently. I remember the way"

No thanks for getting even more tired.

Besides, as I told Sion, I properly remember the way. Me alone is enough, so when I refused Sion's company, he easily backed down.

"Is that so. It's none of my business, is it"

"No. Thank you. If it was a while ago, I might have asked you. I also must get used to the Fafnir Castle a little, so I've done my best to memorize it"

It will become my home at the end of the next month, so I want to have a grasp on the place I'll live.

When I took a fleeting glance at Will, he was still feeling down.

Honestly… Why does Will have to feel down that he doesn't have abs.

Even Brother doesn't have something as splendid as six pack. (bias)

That's why Will too doesn't need to worry.

Still, I have to be going soon. Freed must be waiting at the chivalric order practice ground.

I felt impatient, stained with the greed of wanting to see my fiancé's cool appearance as much as I can.

"Will, sorry too. I stopped you while you were holding the large bundle. Freed is waiting, so I'll be going soon. Thanks for getting in touch with Freed"

"Ah, yeah. Got it. I'll report to His Highness that you're coming"

"I appreciate it. Thank you"

Take care, saying that the two saw me off, and I left the place.

I headed for the location of the Royal Guard Chivalric Order headquarters at fast pace.

Honestly… What the h.e.l.l was Freed talking about.

Freed knows that Sion transferred and that he's my senior from my previous life.

That should be all, and yet considering all that, I feel like he's awfully antagonistic towards Sion, I wonder if it's my imagination.

"I wonder if it got exposed that he's my ex-boyfriend after all…"

I'm scared of asking directly, so I decided to cowardly continue staying silent.

Come to think of it, just now I refused Sion because I know the way, but supposing I took him on that, I wonder if Freed would get angry.

Although only now, I recalled that at the time our feelings became mutual I was told not to be alone with other men; thinking it might have been dangerous cold sweat flowed.

"… Perhaps it was a close call?"

I don't mean to make Freed jealous.

But, my prince is a little quick to sulk, so it's difficult to deal with him.

I'm happy that my beloved is jealous though.

I better avoid what I can avoid.

Noticing that although by chance I successfully avoided the crisis, I felt relieved.

Freed's recent punishment s.e.xy times are a terrible thing where I continue coming endlessly, so if possible I want to be spared from it.

Moreover, at those time he doesn't take off clothes.

It's very painful when he doesn't embrace me naked, so after all I want to go with avoiding the punishment.

"Ah"

The subject of him not taking off clothes made me remember.

The very embarra.s.sing truth that my infatuation with abs has been exposed to everyone.

Aaa, I lamented alone.

"… It's the worst. Why did my infatuation with abs got exposed not only to the person himself but even Sion or Will…"

Even though I don't want my preferences known even to their target, Freed.

Since I decided to be Freed's princess consort, I wanted to create a cool image to not embarra.s.s him, and yet it got messed up from the beginning.

"It's tough…"

The consolation is Sion and Will aren't people to spread rumors to unrelated people. I'm saved, but…

"If possible, I didn't want anybody to know…"

Aah, I breathed a grand sigh. Although I felt dizzy, my feet reliably headed for the chivalric order practice ground.

My aim is of course Freed… and his abs.

"After this happened… There's only being healed by watching the real thing…"

It's not guaranteed he'll have his top off with instructing though.

Unwilling to accept it, I may be disappointed even if I go there.

―― Unexpectedly, in one afternoon I learned that three people know I'm infatuated with abs.
