Lets Keep it Lay Low Until We Get Home

SimplicityWeb Novel [ ]July 5, 20234 Minutes

It didnt take long for me to talk with the orphanage and get custody of Akari. Now thats over with, I can now escort the prince and princess to their houses and could get myself free from this duty.

Though I need to report directly to the king immediately about what happened this afternoon, Id rather make sure that his children make their way back home safely first and foremost.

That being the case Im here right now in the royal castle, bidding farewell to the prince and princess.

[I had fun today, Duke Fall. I look forward to the next time we go out on a trip again, okay?] (Srn)

*Grins*

The princess smiles as she says such vague words but, yeah, its better not to think too much about it. Lets just ignore it.

I mean, not that I could understand whats running inside this womans head I would like to keep on cooperating terms with her for now though as I might need her help sooner or later, but Yeah, Im not really that comfortable about it.

But if its really necessary, Id suck it up and work with her as much as I need. If its for my familys safety, then Id be willing to do everything. But why am I feeling like this, though? Is it because shes also a reincarnated? Its really uncomfortable when you know someone else knows your deepest secret.

*Sigh*Regardless, shes a friend of Laurel. So in the end, theres no way I could avoid involving myself in this lady.

[It would be my pleasure, youre highness. That would be the same to you too, Prince Seryu. Some unexpected circumstances happened in the afternoon but I hope this trip has allowed you to obtain some reference about the castle town.] (C)

[It did! I learned a lot today!] (Sry)

Unlike Serensama, Seryu-sama is still looking at me with pure dazzling eyes. Just what did I do to warrant such attention? Its making me a little bit iffy because I have no clue why hes looking at me like that.

[And Ill continue to work hard too! Please keep on looking after me, Duke Fall!] (Sry)

Y-yeah, must be nice to be that young, huh Look at you so motivated all of a sudden. Just wheres that vigor coming from, really?

But to be fair, based on the short time we spent as father and son, I am quite confident that Seryu-sama deep down is a courteous and obedient boy.

Something might have happened before the game that twisted his roots inside but if things continue to grow the same way as he is right now, I believe hell become a fine man and a wise king when the time comes. Well, that all depends on how much work and effort hell be putting into it though, I guess?

So, assuming hell be able to stay on the right track then perhaps, Laurel N-n-no, no, no, no. Stop right here Calis. My heart is still aint ready for this topic. Goodness.

I am not here being too overprotective. As a parent, its just not easy to hand over your child even if you say that its marriage. Would I be able to honestly accept it? At this point, no. But if Laurel didnt hate the thought and would actually pursue Seryu-sama herself, then I could respect and concede her to Seryu-sama.

But thats something I dont have to deal with right now. Theres a bigger problem right in front of me that I need to fix after all.

[Laurel-san, lets ask the female knights and accompany us so we can hang out with just us girls next time.] (Srn)

[Oh, uhm] (L)

*Glances* (Laurel)

*Smiles, Nods* (C)

*Beams* (L)

When that time comes, lets make sure to put up a team of fully elite maiden knights to look after her.

[Then Ill look forward to it, Laurel-san.] (Srn)

[Yeah!] (L)

See how happy my daughter is? Her angelic smile as she joyfully grins? Goodness, my daughters really the best!

And nobody else could change my thoughts about it!
