Chapter 887 – Ep.885 the Collapsed Empire
She first moved to where Marvius and Adrian were, leaving behind Rita, who had lost consciousness due to discharge, and Mariel, whose condition did not look good.
“…”
“…”
And I was able to find two people who were exuding an air of something that went beyond awkwardness, as if they were seeing each other for the first time today.
“Mr. West.”
“My dear.”
When I showed up, they both approached me almost simultaneously, each calling me in their own way.
“Adrian? “Just wait a moment.”
“… Huh.”
Adrian, who was approaching closely, folded his ears in half and lowered his sullen head.
“Ha, really…”
Marvius, who was standing right next to him, glanced at Adrian and snorted in frustration.
“Princess, please calm down first.”
“… “I wasn’t particularly excited.”
Huh. It’s absolutely a lie.
Just now, I was glaring at Adrian with the gaze of a wild beast that seemed ready to pounce at any moment, but he wasn’t excited.
“What did you two talk about?”
“I didn’t share it.”
“Huh.”
“Uh, yeah. Is it so.”
I almost laughed at the behavior of the two, who only get along well at times like this, but I managed to swallow it down.
“Anyway, I formed a relationship with Adrian because of special circumstances. “I will explain in detail what the special situation is later, so please just leave it at that for now.”
“… “It’s probably not heat, right?”
“No.”
“… I get it.”
Marvius glanced at Adrian once again and sighed softly.
“Princess Adriano, don’t keep provoking me.”
“… “It’s not a provocation.”
“Use it?”
“Yes… No, I won’t… Yo. This…”
His slightly raised ears folded in half again, and Adrian nodded quickly, even wriggling his fingers.
“My dear. Don’t be fooled. “That clever Sir Adrian is bewitching you right now.”
“… Princess.”
“Keuhum!”
Who wouldn’t know that?
When I glanced at him and called his name, Marvius quickly cleared his throat and averted his gaze.
“There’s a lot to do first, so let’s go back.”
In fact, they both know more about the imperial palace than I do, so there will be no problem if I just send the two of them.
Even if the two of you fight on the way, it will end up as an argument anyway, so there is nothing to worry about.
Nevertheless, the reason I went back with them was because I was worried that the relationship between Genoa, who was waiting for me on the other side, and the girls who came over from the Demon Continent together would take a turn for the worse.
‘What… Considering the personalities of both sides, even that seems unlikely.’
Anyway, for that reason, I moved to the building of the Blue Rose Knights with the two others.
**
“Omg!!”
“Ah, Sir Adrian!!”
“What? Who?”
Although it was expected, Adrian’s appearance caused more commotion than expected.
That’s because he’s a gentle bear in front of me and Ravel, but if Adrian decides to go on a rampage, it’s not a task to overthrow the system on his own.
‘It’s surprising that even though I single-handedly overturned the system, I was actually ranked last in the Ten Demonic Cities…’
Anyway, I quickly shouted at the knights who threw down what they were doing and started coming out one by one.
“First of all, rest… Because I have to. “Don’t crowd around too much and just go do what everyone else is doing.”
“”Yes!!””
The knights who tried to jump out in a huff turned and went back the way they had come, and the knights who came out and gathered around Adrian also returned to their respective positions very quickly and orderly.
Perhaps it was the influence of Marvius being declared his wife in the arena that day.
I’m not sure if it was because he was using someone as talented as Genoa, but in any case, it felt good to listen well, so I felt a little better.
“Sir Adrian.”
“Chung, chung!!”
And as soon as they got to this floor, Melbourne and Irina, who were outside the lounge, greeted Adrian in their own way.
For reference, it was Irina who saluted with a stiff posture.
“Lord, master… !!”
“Hehe…”
Before I could say anything, the half-opened door to the break room swung open, and the twins with frightened expressions stuck their heads out, crying.
Of course, their eyes were directed at Adrian, who was standing next to them with half-sleepy eyes.
‘I didn’t think of twins.’
At the same time, I thought it was a good idea to come together.
“Are you okay. Don’t be too scared, but… Shall we all go inside?”
“Yes. “Mr.
“Uh, that’s right.”
The twins immediately hid inside, and when Melbourne and Irina turned around, we followed them into the lounge.
After entering the lounge, I walked over to the twins who were watching from afar, lightly pulled them by their waists and sat them on my thighs.
“This is Kuriri.”
“Oh, hello…”
“And this is Kuroro.”
“Hello, welcome…”
The frightened twins bowed their heads towards Adrian, with similar postures and speech patterns that made it difficult to tell them apart.
Adrian, who was greeted by the two, narrowed his eyes and glanced at me, asking what to do with his eyes.
I shook my head slightly and continued talking while lightly stroking the twins’ heads.
“These are precious children who risked their lives to help me from the Demon Continent. In other words, everyone in this room is a precious person, so my hope is that we can get along as well as possible.”
The twins didn’t seem to think anything of it, just happily accepting my touch.
On the other hand, the three women sitting across from me looked a little deep in thought.
For reference, there were four people sitting across from us, not three.
Still, the reason I said it was three people.
“Good kid… I like you…”
Before we knew it, Adrian had come forward, was at eye level with the twins, and was extending his hand toward them.
“Uh, lord, master?”
“Are you okay.”
The two of us, who were taken aback by the sudden request for a handshake from a strong man, carefully held Adrian’s hand when I smiled and nodded.
“Well, thank you…” … ?”
“Boo, please…” .”
“Huh. The children whom the West loves. “I save it too.”
Puheap──!!
Unlike the twins, who slowly relaxed, the three women who were quietly watching the situation from behind coughed all at once.
“W-What?! “West?!”
“Knock, call!! Now, wait… “W-what is that?”
“Uhm…”
Marvius’ reaction was roughly as expected, but Irina and Melbourne’s embarrassment was a bit surprising.
‘Is it really that surprising?’
When three people are panicking like that.
“Ah! “Master!!”
“Lord, are you my master?”
Upright!
Adrian’s round ears, which had been slightly drooping, rose up.
“Huh. “It’s me, master.”
“Hello!!”
“Oh, hello…”
Did he accept it as a perfect ally?
The twins greeted Adrian again with their usual lively self, as if they had never been scared.
Adrian gently touched the hands of the twins he was holding and glanced up at me.
“Pass.”
… What does it mean to pass?
The reactions of the three in the back and the three in front were so completely different that I almost laughed in many ways.
Anyway, it’s a bit funny and reassuring to see that he likes the twins more than Marvius, who has been with him for a long time──
“For a moment!!”
Since Adrian liked the twins, he was about to return to Mariel and Rita with peace of mind, but Marvius suddenly approached them, raising his voice.
“I too am Smith’s wife.”
“”… ?””
At that moment, the twins blinked and tilted their heads.
I couldn’t help but be surprised when he suddenly approached me with a solemn expression on a fact I already knew.
The twins and everyone in the room, including me, waited for Marvius’ next words.
“Hmm.”
Did you realize that everyone was focusing on you?
Our cute princess kept her solemn expression and moved her lips while clearing her throat once.
“There was no such situation yesterday or this morning, so I understand.”
So what?
His mouth was itching, but since Marvius was so in control, he decided to listen until the end.
“However, from now on, when you call me, you must call me Grand Master. Do you understand?”
“”… ?””
Even the twins, Lili, who was usually adaptable to all situations, tilted her head a little more crookedly.
Is it because of the twins’ reaction?
“Well, Sir Adrian, whom you just called Mistress, has just become Smith’s wife today. On the other hand, this body of hers had already been her wife long before that. In other words, since I am of higher rank, you can call me Big Master and that person as Little Master. Do you understand?”
““… ?””
The twins’ gaze, which had been directed at Marvius, turned to me this time.
Their eyes were filled with the question, ‘Is this true?’
‘It’s difficult…’
Marvius’ claim is not completely wrong, but the issue of the wives’ hierarchy is an area in which I cannot get involved, and I understand that everyone has agreed to have an equal position and right to speak, except for Siron, who is recognized by the wives as the crony.
“That’s right. “I am the little master.”
As I was wondering what to do, Adrian, who had been quietly fiddling with the twins’ hands, admitted that what Marvius said was true.
“Mmm!”
Marvius smiles at Adrian as if he is satisfied for the first time.
However, the twins’ reaction was very indifferent.
Especially the reaction of Lili, my older sister.
‘Well, even by those two’s standards, it’s strange.’
Marvius, who was very small and weak, was the big master, and Adrian, who was overwhelmingly strong, was the little master.
From the perspective of the demons, it would be a situation that could never be understood.
‘This… ‘I need to do better in the future.’
I had a bad feeling that if I awkwardly took someone’s side, the relationship would be ruined in an instant.
Especially things related to the night.
“Well, I have a place to visit for a while. Please have a conversation step by step.”
I got up from the sofa and helped the twins up.
“Where are you going?”
“I need to bring someone with me. Maybe… “It will take a while.”
I need to inject a lot of magical energy into two people who have completely lost their magical energy.
“Anyway, I’ll be back.”
“Let’s go──”
“Yes~”
Adrian pushes away Marvius, who was greeting him, and comes into his arms.
“Carefully… “Come back.”
“This, profit…”
Haha.”
I felt that there was a need to at least fix the relationship between these two before leaving the system.
