Puffy and angry, he returned to the room, and as he prepared for bed, gradually the heart of Meliá Rose also calmed down.

Standing by the window, Fuji sees the streets of Wangdu, where the lights lit up everywhere and the aftermath of the Kingdom Festival still lingers.

- Beautiful city...... It's up to Ulysses to protect this sight... and it's our job, isn't it?

It is the duty of royalty and nobility to protect and rule so that the people can live in safety.

Those who stand above people have all that power and responsibility.

- Even at that swordsmanship tournament, I'm sure no one would have listened to my words unless I was a victorious maiden and a duke's warrant...

People listen to that word because Meliarose is "Meliarose Maxwell".

For better or worse, that's the reality.

That's what Melia Rose understood.

- I don't know what to do now...

Roberto's proposal (?) When I heard the words, I also considered only a few possibilities of going to his country with him.

But if you think about it slowly like this, it's still...

- Master Ulysses and Lynette are still in a dangerous position...

Lynette, in particular, is in a precarious position as Prince's fiancé.

Meliá Rose wants to continue to support her two dear friends.

To that end, what can Meliá Rose do?

- "In the end, everyone is going to compete with the cards distributed. Then I'll make the most of my current bills and try to do it. I've decided to keep going this way for those who admire me. '

The words Roberto once said come back to life.

As a Duke's maiden, Mary Rose has been supported by many so far.

- "Best noble lady in the country"

Meliá Rose was sometimes overloaded with the title. Sometimes I wanted to run away somewhere and try to live as just Merriah Rose.

But the position of the Duke's Lady is also a powerful Merriam-Rose card if you return the back.

"If I hadn't been the daughter of the Duke's house, I wouldn't have been the prince's fiancée either. You couldn't have protected Julia."

Yes, Meliá Rose already knew how to use that power.

I'm sure Ulysses and Lynette will continue to have a lot of difficulties ahead of them.

- 'You, proceed as you wish. I'm sure that'll work best.'

"I'll do what I want..."

With his hands still on his chest, Merriah Rose took a deep breath.

Then it calms me down a lot.

- Yes, I wonder what the hell bothered me...?

Thinking about it, Merriam Rose herself was left to do what she wanted and should do.

What... was it this simple?

That made me suddenly go crazy, and Melia Rose fell into bed pretending.

At the next moment, I hear a modest knock on the door, and Merriah Rose jumps up unexpectedly.

Has the maid around the castle come to say anything?

Coughing lightly with Cohon, Meliá Rose dresses up for peace and inquires.

"I wonder who it is"

But to the voice I heard the next moment, now it's time for Meliá Rose to almost stop her heart.

"It's me, Mr. MerriaRose."

That was, indeed, Willem's voice.

As soon as I heard that voice, Meliá Rose's body bursts with heat at once.

- How much, what shall we do...!? I'm ready to go to bed now!!?

Meliá Rose today was in the process of removing her hair, changing to a long piece of bedding (with cute frills), and applying aromatic oil to her skin for more beauty.

A lady meets a man in such a state. In the first place, don't knock on the lady's room door with such grandeur at night!... and it would make sense to chase it back.

But listening to his voice really made me... Melia Rose want to talk to him sexually.

"Three minutes...... no, just give me five minutes!

"What?"

"Lady has a lot going on! No prying!!

"Ha, ha!!

- What are you gonna do? I'm sober!? It's night and it's dark... and you're gonna delude me...?

Flip over the costume shelf in a hurry and gently weave your jacket.

Standing in front of the mirror with a bump, I get my hair done.

Out of the mirror, the girl looked at this one with her cheeks so red that she could clearly see even in the dim darkness.

- Calm down, calm down. I...!

Put your hands on your chest and breathe deeply. Still... Meliá Rose's head gets paranoid on its own.

In the novel I had previously received from the minister, when a hero visited the heroine's room at night, the love scene had begun so sweet that it seemed almost invariably to spit sugar.

That means after this......

- No, no, those glasses!? I don't think I can do such a mindful thing!!

Shaking his head, Meliá Rose drove away her impolite (fluttering) delusions from the back of her brain.

I have to change my mood somehow. At a time like this...

Suddenly, breathing, Melia Rose stands in front of the door.

And then he opens the door all at once and says, "Pippy."

"Damn, I can't believe I bothered the lady at such a late hour... that she's a truly innocent lord! Amenbo or less!!

"Wow, all of a sudden Villain Lady Mode!?

When you get upset, it's best to be a villain warrant lady.

Willem across the door looked surprised for a moment, but he's giggling dull about what's wrong.

The reaction also eased tension in Meliá Rose.

"Well, this is about the joke... please come in"

"What, can I come in?

"Hey, what...! I guess you're not going to do anything weird!?

"Meh, there is no annihilation...!

Mary Rose exhales relieved at Willem, who waves her head in a desperate manner that she never thought of that.

... Phew, a love scene like the one in the novel doesn't seem to start when it looks like this.

Half relieved, half sorry, Merriam Rose put Willem through the room.

"So, what can I do for you at this hour?

"Well... apologize, I wanted to..."

"Apologize...?

What the hell did he do?

Willem opened his mouth slightly harder to say to Merriam Rose, who blinked her eyes properly without understanding the story.

"Well, I couldn't win a sword tournament after all..."

To Willem, who told him so with a sad look, Merriah Rose turned her eyes round.

- Speaking of which, I did...

Merriah Rose's brother - Ernest - said Willem wouldn't approve of the relationship between the two unless he won the swordsmanship tournament.

Willem would have also declared, "I will definitely win and show you," etc.

Honestly, the incident that happened at the swordsmanship tournament was too intense, and Merriah Rose has forgotten about it until now.

"... Mr. MerriaRose. Prince Roberto is a wonderful man. No, even if you're not Prince Roberto, the Maxwell family shouldn't let you be the one to be unhappy with you.... Still, I don't intend to work injustice, but if I can -"

"... Willem, listen"

Mary Rose sighed small to Willem, who somehow preceded the grandeur and spoke of her determination with a sad expression.

face up, staring straight into Willem's eyes, Mary Rose asks.

"I wonder if your thoughts on me, once you disagree... are to such an extent that you can easily pull back"

I meant to let go of my perseverance, but the last one shook my voice.

... The truth is, you may be feeling horrible.

Even without dealing with such a troublesome conditional self or anything, Willem would be able to deal with as many distracting warrants as he wants.

I was afraid that I could poke reality at you.

- But... if that's the case, don't hold me back.

If this love is to end and Willem takes a new path...... Merriah Rose must smile and bless him.

Thinking about it, the back of his eyes got warm and Merriah Rose leaned down slightly.

In a dim room, full of silence.

But the silence was broken when Willem took a step.

"... that's not why you're so...!

Suddenly she thought she had been drawn strongly, and Merriah Rose was in his arms if she noticed.

The more painfully I get embraced, the more I'm about to hold my breath.

"... I don't want to give it to anyone. Imagine the sight of you laughing next to another man and that just makes me jealous and crazy......! Still..."

Willem whispered with a voice that seemed to have pushed and killed his passion as he loosened his arm just a little bit.

"... I know. There's a lot more to you than me. If you go to him, you'll be happy."

"... arrogant."

Willem breathed in surprise at the pounding and Merriam-Rose whining words.

In anticipation of the loose gap in force, Merriah Rose looks up and gazes at him.

"If you've heard from me just now, there's a lord somewhere who can make me happy... that's on my own! My happiness is up to me"

When I told him that straight away, Willem opened his eyes to his surprise.

He grinned at him like that, and Melia Rose told him confidently.

I found out that he still thinks of Melia Rose... so I'm not afraid of anything anymore.

"Meliá Rose Maxwell won't shut up and be someone else's. My way of life is up to me. … and of course, my partner."

Once again when I put it that way, my chest soothed for a long time.

When I meditated on one eye and smiled mischievously, Willem laughed out in such a way that after a look taken aback... I couldn't wait to see it.

"That's the queen of the school, Mr. MerriaRose, who served as a bystander young villain warrant!... I knew you'd look good that way."

"What, are you praising me? Are you making fun of me?

"I'm praising you. I... can't wait to like it."

Straight told me that, and Melia Rose went bright red at once.

With a giggle that dulls at the reaction, Willem has asked.

"But how do you persuade the Duke family to ambush you?

"It is your brother who is strongly opposed to socializing with you. So I'll have your father and your mother on my side. Whatever."

I don't care how much the next time I win, my father still has a better say than my brother.

Besides, my brother said, "I don't know. I'm not with your brother! If you declare," it's not hard to imagine moderating attitudes somewhat.

Damn, why didn't you come up with such an easy way before?... and Melia Rose was so strange.

"I'm sure it'll take some time. But I don't want to give up. So..."

As soon as he tried to say the following words, Willem suddenly knelt at his feet, so Mary Rose was surprised.

"Nah, what!?

"... for once, I thought I should declare this right"

"Huh...?

Willem, kneeling, looks up. The expression was astonishingly sincere, and the eyes of emerald illuminated by the moonlight over the window were as brilliant as they had a strong will.

Stared into its eyes, Merriah Rose's body temperature rises all at once.

"From now on, my thoughts will remain the same. I will be your sword and your shield, and I will give everything for you if I have to. I would spare nothing to protect your life and honor."

... It was as if, in the story, a knight who pledged his love and loyalty to the princess.

Willem gently took Meliá Rose's hand and gently mouthed it on the back of his hand.

"I swear to the gods, to you, and to myself. So forgive me… as your knight, to serve and protect beside you."

It was a knight's vow that I had longed for since I was a young child.

Hot stuff pours up from the back of his chest, and Meliá Rose bites his lips all the time.

- That's all Willem thinks of me. Then I have to respond, too.

Meliá Rose smiles softly and speaks to the knight who kneels.

"Let me always pledge to protect your honor and respond to your loyalty.... Stand up, Willem Herschel"

There is no cathedral, no throne, no sword, no cloak.

Still, this is just the two of us… a sacred vow ritual.

"I'm going my way. So... come with me, will you?

Willem nodded deeply at the words of Mary Rose, who stared straight into the other person's eyes and spoke.

"I'll serve you everywhere, my lady"

Nobody knows, a secret vow just for the two of us.

Mary Rose smiled when she saw the knight staring straight at this one.
