Holding hands with Serira, I choose any walking road along the trail from the Garden, where the winter tree is. Elene was following us behind with a discontented look. Oh, come to think of it, Elene is always with me too. Iâm so used to her being next to me.
When I turn around, I see eye to eye with Elene. My smile at the moment brightened Eleneâs face.
âItâs been a while since we took a walk together, Princess.â
âYes, it has.â
âWeâll do it often from now on.â
Yeah, we should do that.
âWait, Princess!â
Huh? I stopped by Eleneâs voice and almost tripped over a stone. Serira quickly grabs my body and sighs of relief. I had to laugh because I was sorry.
I heard that childrearing is a series of wars, and I guess that is true. Sheâs still at war today. After looking for anything else on the floor, Serira puts me back on the floor. And as soon as I tried to walk the road again, I see strange crowd far after us.
My father carries a lot of entourages, but there are many people too. It was a stark contrast to me, who had only two members as my entourages. It seems like itâs some kind of envoy since there are so many entourages. However, almost all of the envoys staying in Agrigent have now returned to their home countries and only a few of them left. I heard they will meet again in Phantom and the moonâs city of Tiepolo anyway.
Well, is that a real envoy?
At that moment my eyes met someone in the group. Uh, huh?
âWe met last time, didnât we?â
Wasnât it an envoy? It makes me even scarier to see her smiling face as soon as she sees me.
Yes, we did meet last time. Unfortunately, the owner of the leading pack was Princess Tylenia of Andourse, whom I had seen before. The glossy golden hair flows down to the feet. I hated this woman for some reason, though she was as beautiful as Silvia.
âOh, what is the matter with our princess?â
Shrugging off the hand holding my shoulder and hiding behind Serira, Serira makes an embarrassing face. But I canât help it. I donât like her. For some reason, I remembered the princess of Pretzia, who held me when I was younger. I feel similar when Iâm around her.
