"- This way, Master Oliver!

The knight, who was escorting Liesche, directed Oliver, the Crown Prince's squire, into the reception room.

"Leishe, how are you feeling?"

"You looked pale and it was hard sitting there. Kamil, my phase number, is now embracing me."

"Who else knows about this?

"At the behest of you, Lieche, I sent Else, the samurai, first. I'm not talking to anyone else."

"Well done. That's fine."

The Olivers have been commanded by their lords for a long time.

It was, 'In the event of unexpected events concerning the leachet, treat it confidentially in small numbers and be careful not to spread it within the Imperial Castle'.

Perhaps the order is not just to protect the queen from rumours of silence.

(Indeed, His Royal Highness Theodore made contact with Leishe. Not at all......)

We need to get the leashes out of sight and call a doctor we can trust. With that arithmetic in his head, Oliver jumped into the reception room.

"Mr. Lieche. How are you feeling..."

And Oliver goes out of his mind. A knight with a strange face also looks indoors and opens his eyes.

The reception room was a mushroom.

There are no leashes that should have fallen, no camels of knights that should have stayed. And Else that we headed to this room first.

"What the hell is this?"

Oliver groans at his throat.

"Oh, Oliver!

"Report to Your Highness. … don't talk about this until you give the order."

Second prince Theodore walked gently through the royal capital at night as he walked out of the castle as usual.

Wearing a robe, a hood in sight, only one escort with him. At first glance, no one will realize that this boy is royal.

In the first place, in this country, only the emperor publicly appears before the people. You can say that few know Theodore as a prince.

Still, I hide my face because I have a problem with where I go in and out.

Stepping into a thin back alley, Theodore goes deeper and deeper.

Its path, with large escorts walking cramped, was a path to avoid even daytime, if it were an ordinary citizen walking wide down the main street.

All the surrounding houses lit up by lantern lights are crude. Theodore eventually knocked on the door of a building with only one light on it.

After hearing a response from inside, the escort enters and opens the door.

Theodore raised his right hand to one side and went inside the building.

"Thank you for waiting, Theodore."

An old man with a crooked waist lowers his head deeply.

Theodore smiled, sat down in the chair that was nearby and laughed furiously.

"Hey Dominic, it's been three days. I heard Lena's baby was born, more than happy to reward her."

"This is all thanks to Theodore's support."

"Haha, don't be so sure. Me and everyone in this ghetto are helping each other."

Theodore says so, lowering his eyes all the time.

Thank you for grabbing the future Crown Princess.

"Theodore, if you will."

At first sight nothing was going on in the castle and it was moving normally. But it doesn't mean nothing has changed.

The knights, the direct reports of his brother, move as usual on visible assignments, such as security and his brother's escort.

But other than that, the knight disappeared, and it seems that the layman is not in the quarters either.

"My brother is in a hurry right now, looking for a leachet with his face saying it's nothing on the surface. That feels good."

"And how would you dispose of that girl? If you kill him, you drop him into slavery, and he moves as well. Order any dirty work."

"Reliable, quick talk and don't help.... but well, you don't have to rush it."

Theodore put his feet together and put a cheek wand on top of it.

"More than that, let's work on this merit. It was tough to move inconspicuously, but well done for accomplishing Leishe's incarceration."

That's what I said, I turn to the two of you who were standing in the corner of the room.

"- Else, Kamil. Thanks to you guys."

"Theodore, if you will."

A little girl and a tall knight bow their heads to each one.

And I looked straight at Theodore.

Samurai Else and Kamil, who has been in charge of escorting Liesche for some time now, are people Theodore has known well for a long time.

They were born and raised in this slum and lived in trouble to eat as well.

Theodore, who has long been a patient visitor to this slum and has used the residents in exchange for money, smiles beautifully at them.

"And you didn't think you'd get a chance so soon. He fell ill. He made the best gap to grab it."

"Yes.... Leishe Your physical examination is complete. You don't have a weapon or anything you can use to escape."

"Perfect job."

Theodore goes on to peek into the samurai's face.

"Else looks much better. I feel relieved to be able to eat properly."

"Thank you, Theodore, for recommending me to the maid of the castle through the church."

"Never mind. It was an opportunity to dress up to bring my breath-taking person closer to my brother's fiancé. Thank you so much for winning Leishe's trust."

Theodore then looked up at the knight Kamil.

"Besides, Camille would have had a tough escort assignment, too, right? My sister-in-law seems very active."

"There is no annihilation. Besides, I was able to fulfill Theodore's orders because I was able to hit your escort."

"Haha. I was unhappy when you joined the Knights because of your brother, the Kingsguard Knight. I asked you to be my knight, but you said no."

Was that about two years ago?

Theodore's request seemed to be dispelled, saying, 'The Second Prince craved his brother's knight and had eclampsia,' etc., but in fact Theodore knew more about this knight first.

"... but thanks to you being my brother's knight, I can suffer my brother. Thank you so much."

When Theodore took out the leather bag packed with gold coins, he handed it to both of them.

Else and Kamil bow their heads respectfully and receive a reward.

"Thank you for your work. Keep it up."

Theodore called out, leaving the scene behind.

"Ah! It's Theo!

On his way home, a boy, almost clothed and dressed alike, rushed by Theodore.

"Hi Vim. Is the voicemail assignment going well?

"Of course! I'll protect Anna until my mother gets home from work!

"That's your brother. That's great."

Theodore bends over and strokes the boy's head with me.

The boy was thinly dirty, and if he was a normal person, he seemed hesitant to touch him, but Theodore doesn't care.

"But it's too late, so we'll do the rest of the mission with a futon."

"Uh. But I need to say welcome back to my mother..."

"Sleeping with my sister is your big brother's job."

……

The boy looked like he was thinking and then honestly listened and nodded.

"Okay, the mission will continue with your futon. Good night, Theo!

"Good night. Have a good dream"

Theodore dropped that back off until the boy's hindsight disappeared. Watching you go inside a crude building, get up.

"Is it your brother's job to sleep with your sister, too?... My brother never did that to me."

"Theodore."

Named by a large escort, Theodore flaunts his shoulder.

I first came to this ghetto when Theodore was young. I now joined hands with my late mother, and stepped in here to impose.

In the rich corner of the Imperial Capital, to a sweeping city that exists while being neglected by everyone.

"For my brother, the inhabitants of this town and I are alike. Something I really don't care about the bottom of my heart, though I have to show some attitude to hit my hand more than I am there. That's what it is."

Theodore leans down and squeaks.

"But it's a counterattack.... Now I wonder if you can see the look I love when you point it at me?

In the dim room, Liesche was desperately trying to remain conscious.

Apparently, this is inside a building outside the Imperial Capital. Locked in the same room as the storeroom, Lieche waited all the way for 'then'.

The door is locked from the outside. There are windows, but it seems this is on the third floor of the building, and the distance to the ground is far.

Outside the door or under the window, a guard with a weapon appears to be in place. The stature of the watchman is poor, and he is also like a bandit.

Liesche was squatting in the corner of the room, fighting glitching vision, body laziness, headaches, etc.

At last there comes a moment of waiting.

"Hey, sister-in-law. How does it feel to be betrayed by a samurai or an escort?

"... Your Highness Theodore"

To the appearance of the waiter, Liesche exhaled briefly.

Laughing in a good mood, Theodore stands in front of the door and looks down at Lieche.

"It's pathetic to be grabbed by a lovely raised samurai. Else says the new ladies are working faster and faster."

……

"Rumors abound that once you have that system in place, the shortage of servants in our castle will be eliminated. I envy you, my brilliant daughter-in-law, for being able to contribute to the problems that were bothering my brother's head."

After I said that, my smile disappeared from the boy's beautiful face.

- You're the man my brother needs.

……

Liesche opens his mouth in a hazy thought.

"Why are you doing this?"

"Of course, to hurt my brother's mood."

"Is that all you pointed at the Elseys for?

"Yes."

Theodore said with a relaxed mouthful.

"The only thing of value to my brother is a human being with something superior. An Army Knight. Outstanding squire. Bride to reform inside the castle.... a useless brother like me is unnecessary to my brother."

To the words, Liesche notices.

All this time, I've been thinking that Theodore hates Arnold. But it wasn't.

"Then at least they have to hate me. But if I don't, my brother won't even look at me...?

"Your Highness."

"Heh, heh"

Theodore leaned down and laughed fundamentally.

"It's amazing. When I came into contact with you, my brother took a good look at me. Even cold eyes like seeing something abominable are much better than being ignored......!

Theodore's body is shaking. Not in fear or anything else, but in tranced emotions of joy.

"I'm pissing off my brother. My brother's emotions are right for me! I'm relieved to think so. That brother thinks of me!

Theodore peered this way mean as he stood in front of the leachet sitting on the floor.

That's why Liesche smiles back. I hold back the glitch in my sight and the headache that accompanies nausea, laughing with dignity.

"You're lying."

"... Huh?

To Liesche's words, Theodore distorted his face.

But he quickly regains his mind and undoes his expression.

"I regret I got caught, I guess I lost. That's not cute."

"So can you tell me just one thing for the hand to me, who was caught pitifully? How could your family be so unfamiliar?"

"That's none of your business."

"We are caught up in a fight between your brothers, and this is how we are imprisoned. It can't be irrelevant."

……

Theodore looked like a child who came up with a prank after his annoying face.

"I'm sure of that, and I'll tell you. Didn't I tell you my brother killed my mother before?

"Yeah, I did ask you."

"The story has a premise. My brother was about to be killed by my mother."

Liesche remembered the wound on Arnold's neck.

It will be more than ten years, countless ancient wounds. It is his only weakness and usually something he hides with clothes and such.

"My mother always hated my father and my brother. And my brother hated my mother just as much. That's enough to think about killing him one day."

……

"Maybe he's willing to kill his father one day, too.... if you go for that, no matter how much the Crown Prince is, a felon, you won't be spared death."

Not knowing the future three years later, Theodore joked and spoke.

"Our royal family is scattered, first and foremost, because Father only thinks of children as political pawns. And secondly, the reason my brother is cutting off any interaction between my brothers. Because my sisters, by order of my brother, live in a scattered place."

"Why did His Highness Arnold hate you so much that he killed your mother?

"I don't know. But normally, you hate the person who's been trying to kill you."

Is that so?

At least Arnold, whom Liesche has seen in this world, did not seem to be the kind of person to hate someone for such things.

(But...)

When I try to think, my thoughts get grumpy and distorted.

"That's it for me. Okay?"

"Yes. Well, I understand."

Liesche squeezed her temper and smiled at Theodore.

"That His Highness Theodore would like to make friends with His Highness Arnold."

"... na..."

"Even if your family asked you why you were unfriendly, you wouldn't have said anything bad about His Highness Arnold. It's a big difference from when you warned me to leave your Highness."

"... what have you lost in blood"

When Theodore stands up, he turns his back on the leachet.

"I'm going to play with my brother, so I hope you're a grown-up at best. There's a lookout, so it's no use trying to escape, right? Bye."

The door closed and I heard the lock.

When Theodore's footsteps are distanced, there are about four or five signs left in the hallway.

……

Reeshe exhaled deeply, opening what he had found earlier of the boxes piled up in the corners of the room.

Inside, lots of winter curtains are served.

I pulled them and lay there slowly in the corner of the room.

A little tough, but nothing compared to a knighthood wildlife.

More than that, such joy fills my breasts.

(... I can finally sleep...!

Until Theodore got here, it wouldn't be good if he couldn't wake up asleep, so he's been desperately conscious.

The headache and nausea caused by severe drowsiness were painful, but above all they were really sleepy. I exhale relieved at the reassurance that I can get a hypnotic sleep from this.

And I closed my eyes, a few minutes later.

――……

Liesche woke up a little.

It's just a short hypnotic sleep, but the thought is much neater.

Although it's hard to say that my body has recovered, it's much better than just before I fell.

(Uh, there was... around here)

Put out the pills you had hidden and swallow patiently the bitter. It is a snuff on the spot, but it would be easier to move if it worked.

Reeshe next took off the dagger he had bracketed with a ribbon on his thigh as he raised it all the way up the hem of the dress he was wearing.

(Else has prepared a dagger for me, which is a very good item. Must be His Royal Highness Theodore distributing weapons to the Glades)

With that in mind, I take out another thing I had hidden.

The two golden pins were inherently decorative.

But Leishe can use this and unlock closed keys.

That and this was due to the fact that in the life she was a samurai, she was obliged to take her pulling master out to night clubs and studies.

"- Well."

The information that seemed to be drawn from Theodore could now be obtained.

With the dagger and unlocking tools in his hand, Liesche rises.
