Later tonight at the party, Ain walked shoulder to shoulder with Krone.

In addition to his position as Prince Wang, Ein now has the position of Lord Strom. Although Ain was a little troubled, his face to the nobility as a lord was also concurrent.

At the venue, the two natural and friendly appearances attracted attention.

Ein, by the way, did not know the faces of all the nobles. It does not mean that I had given up remembering, purely because there are too many aristocrats who have never seen their faces yet.

In that case, Krone, standing next to him, advises softly.

“Ain’t that the one over there -“

“Mm-hmm.”

She has her arm wrapped around Ain’s left arm and walks like a couple.

The relationship between the two is not explicit.

But the behavior of the two from an early age is a blatant fact and sticks (,,,,,,) rather than uncomfortable.

The royals, including Silvado, were relieved to watch the two behave.

Words are exchanged by the nobles who watched as well.

“How dazzling is the future king and his wife”

“Good thing. I can’t wait for your son’s birth.”

“Oh, you seem fast. Your Highness hasn’t even reigned yet.”

“But let’s hope. Because, as you put it, it will be the birth of a hero king.”

A good ear ein receives a good voice of praise.

I’m embarrassed, but I’m just tired of being lit all the time.

The sleeve of Ain’s clothes, smiling bitterly, was pulled slightly by Krone’s hand.

“Are you okay? Are you tired yet?

“If I’m tired, I’ll take Krone, okay?

“Yeah, I’m just standing next door.”

“… I don’t think so at all”

While she works as an aide, she also lacks other roles next to Ain.

Like his wife, for example, he helped meticulously, for example, as a partner to draw Ain.

I’m not convinced when they say it’s just standing.

“You’ll be next to Ain in grandeur. You can’t be tired.”

Krone laughs so lusciously.

Then under those two, Count Baltic took his feet.

“Your Highness, it’s been a long time – but thank you for inviting me tonight”

“Welcome, Count Baltic, thank you for coming”

A gentle greeting was exchanged, and Count Baltic saw Krone.

“It’s been a long time since you’ve met Master Krone.”

“Don’t let someone like me treat you like that…”

“I thought it was natural. Your relationship with Your Highness, as it can never be ignored.”

Although Krone humbled himself, it would be better to fit in as Count Baltic put it. Because Krone’s identity is by no means noble, but he has some subtle positions.

Though the official position is Ain’s aide, he has now made himself the granddaughter of Ishtarika’s best Grand Chamber of Commerce and the prestigious President of the Augusto Chamber of Commerce, and, in his position, he is also in love with the Lord Ain. There is nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to becoming a future queen.

Krone also understands them, and does not strongly resist the words of Count Baltic.

Because that’s for each other.

Count Baltic packed the distance from the Ains a step further.

Continue and dive your voice and say.

“I wish I could attend the wedding as well.”

Krone, who usually doesn’t show a lit face, accidentally blushed her cheeks at the words.

But Ain’t not going to tear it up,

“Be sure to write ‘Attendance’ in the invitation and reply to me then”

I ran out without stopping.

Krone had unconsciously brought Ain’s and tangled arms closer together and looked up at Ain’s face standing next to him.

You must be happy, that’s the beautiful face you see at a glance.

“Of course it is. – By the way, this may be an extra question.”

The preordained Count Baltic makes a bitter laugh.

“The words of the invitation came out, but those things would usually be like sidekicks, aides, or secretaries. But in Master Krone’s case, he’s the star of the ceremony. Still planning on doing this job?

“Count Baltic… that’s just how far ahead I am, too -“

“No, in a few years I will no longer be an aide. I’m sure a new aide will do something about Count Baltic being questioned.”

Ain’t taken aback and looks at Krone for something he’s never heard before.

“… Yes?

“Already, Ein? It’s not like I can be an aide all the time… Especially if you change your position.”

“Sure you’re right… but is a new aide going to be tested again?

“Yeah. I don’t think so.”

She says with certainty, Ain’t never got an answer.

Perhaps we have already decided on a new aide?

“So you think Dill’s gonna be the new aide or something?

“No, I’m not. The Dill Guard is a human being to leave the Black Knight and become a Marshal.”

It’s not weird what you’re saying.

But.

“This is, Master Krone. Your Highness is asking for answers, isn’t it?

“Heh heh, I thought you’d understand, but it seemed a little too steep to tell”

“… I’d be glad to give you an answer”

Smile at Ain I noticed and Krone says.

“There is hope in person, Marco.”

I was convinced by the word.

Marco doesn’t feel uncomfortable when he says he’s an aide, and I can see why he doesn’t have an exam.

“He is second only to Ein in strength in knowledge, behavior, people’s expectations, and martial arts. I think the exam will be imposed in the unlikely event that there are many objections…”

“If it was Lord Marco, it wouldn’t have happened.”

“Yes, His Majesty also said it would not be a problem, as Count Baltic said.”

“Your Majesty, I didn’t hear anything, did I?

“The selection of an aide is approved by the King. So technically, no other royalty has the right of veto or selection. When I was there, it was decided purely by the exams.”

Ain was surprised that the conversation was going on where he didn’t know it, but it was also true that there was no point in saying all the stories.

That said, when Marco was told he was an aide, he became firm.

Not Dill, who was an escort from an early age, but he was a man who had long been targeting Lloyd.

Ain’t just supposed to be better suited to serve as an escort to one person, but to come to many positions as a marshal.

“But, you know, I’m the one working with Ain in the office. I can’t even give this to Marco.”

Words as I looked up at Ein the Thinker slowly tickled Ein’s mind (,,,,).

“You’re reliable,” Ein replies, laughing at her, desperately suppressing her desire to embrace even now.

“Have you come here to Strom? I can see you two getting along, and Baltic is going to have a good souvenir story.”

Then it’s time for me. Count Baltic finally bowed his head and walked away from front of the two.

The way he walks with his spine pinned out is Rin, though he should be getting old accordingly.

“Ein, you can hug me as much as you want later.”

“… even if I find out, it would be better if you didn’t tell me that.”

“Then would you forgive me if I told you to hug me full later?

Ain narrow his eyes and nod at the words.

“I thought the way you said it was gonna be amazing.”

“Yeah. – Come on. Let’s try a little harder. I got so much better when I heard Ain could give me a hug later.”

– Then soon, the end time will come for a lively party.

Nobles other than Silvado, who came from the king’s capital, leave the mansion with one last word to Ain.

In the tranquility like after the festival, before cleaning it up. Ain enjoyed a party just for his family.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Suppliers are encouraging cleaning inside the mansion.

Silvard and Laralua rested in the prepared room, and Lloyd went out and walked with Dill.

A training ground where Ain was usually polishing his sword moves.

Warren, the first to take a leg there, hands Ain one wrap.

“Is this…?

Is it silk? Ein receives something wrapped in a smooth white cloth.

“It’s his — it’s his diary.”

“Eh, I mean that guy…”

“It’s about a man I traveled with Ishtal. He’s a stupid man who saved a lot of people, became friends with a lot of interracials, and ended up traveling with everyone behind him.”

Warren said so and looked up at the sky.

Stars full of sky caught my eye strongly by the clear air in the cold of winter.

“He was honest, hard-working, hated to lose… he was a prankster and a man who often wielded people. my first friend, but I remember it was all that made me struggle”

That said, Warren’s face is back-to-back fun with words.

Nostalgically rebellious, the way I look back mirrors somewhere mysteriously in Ain’s eyes.

In the silence of his visit, Warren turns his back on Ain and walks out.

“I was entrusted with the management of that diary. But it’s something you should entrust to Ein.”

“Mr. Warren!? Maybe this diary…”

“I have never read that diary, but I will not stop Ein from reading it.”

Finally, Warren walks away saying it in his usual gracious voice.

The leftover Ein turns to the diary paying for the cloth.

Look at the plain letter “diary” written in the middle of the cover, then the back cover.

Then.

“- Marc von Ishtarika”

It’s the name of the first king.

Ain accompanied by a fearful hand and slowly turned the cover.
