* * * Selvia got into the carriage and faced Leliana. "When we go to House Evelyn, mind your titles properly." "I will." Leliana snorted. She had already received quite a few glares for not using proper titles when the Karina delegation came. "Ah, right. You saw him too? My former fiancé." "......Why bring him up suddenly?" Cracks appeared in Selvia's previously expressionless face. Not noticing this, Leliana started chattering excitedly. "He must have come looking for me…-

Leliana came out of the room after whispering sweet nothings with Beatus as always. "Hmm, seems like I'll return to my original position soon." She needed to get what Beatus wanted. Though Leliana felt somewhat anxious, it didn't matter. What she worried about was Selvia having the child of prophecy. But Beatus hadn't even consummated with Selvia. In the end, it was just needless worry. As she was fixing her disheveled hair while heading to her room, she saw a familiar…

Harwin was skilled at acting. It was easy to hide his thoughts in a place where darkness had fallen. 'Though discussions with the temple are already complete......' To be precise, he had made a contract with the high priest. The Kingdom of Delpheron severely oppressed the temple. Therefore, they couldn't receive support even when they needed funds. That was probably due to an old prophecy that the Kingdom of Delpheron would fall. "Where did it go? Must have been taken already." The…

How strange this feeling is. To think of having tea in the place where they had their secret meetings. Selvia looked at Beatus while setting down her teacup with a clink. "It feels like it's been a while since we sat down for tea together. You've been quite busy lately." Selvia carefully asked while handling her teacup. "Yes. It was partly due to socializing, and various matters piled up. Ah, I hear another envoy is coming." "......An envoy?" "From the Karina Empire. It seems they were…

"It's quiet." Selvia returned to her room with a tired expression. Though it seemed like someone would come running to confront her any moment...... As expected, Beatus was not in the room. Leliana might have moved him to her room. Knock knock knock. A maid opened the door and peeked her head in. Judging by how she was gauging Selvia's mood, her prediction seemed correct. "Um...... Your Highness the Queen." "Did something happen?" "How would you like dinner? His Highness said he…

Selvia's expression immediately crumpled, though she had naturally expected it to be the maid. Though his face was covered, she could instantly tell who it was. The mask covering his face, the tall stature, and black hair. "I thought you might need help." "Wouldn't it be better for you to maintain your position at the banquet and let the maid handle this?" Along with her stiff voice, Selvia's lips trembled. Beatus approached Selvia with slow steps and set down the dress he was…

Gulp. Selvia felt her mouth going dry without realizing it. Meeting his gaze made her feel like she was being seen through, causing her to keep turning away first. Selvia pressed her lips shut at Harwin's words. "......Could it be that you got engaged to Leliana to get close to me?" "Ah, that's not it." Then that's good. Why did she feel disappointed? Selvia stopped abruptly while trying to get her confused feelings under control. Their joined hands caused his steps to stop as…

As the song ended, Belrocan casually smiled broadly and kissed Selvia's hand. "That was enjoyable. You're an excellent dancer." "Ah...... thank you." Applause poured forth and the music continued. Glancing around, she saw others also seemed quite satisfied with the banquet. "It's unfortunate not to see the King of Delpheron, but perhaps there will be another opportunity." "Yes, I'll speak with him about it." She had no intention to do so. Unless they spoke with her…

"This is good. This will work." Selvia spent time preparing everything for the banquet, including flower decorations. Knock knock knock. "A moment, I'd like to talk." Beatus leaned against the door and smiled at Selvia. How long had it been since she'd seen that face? It would have been better never to see it again, but that would be impossible. Seeing that smile, Selvia's expression froze coldly. "Please sit." She set down her teacup with a clank and stared intently at…

She doubted her ears. What exactly am I hearing right now? The woman's moans gradually grew more intense. She raised her voice as though she wanted someone to hear. "Ah, Be, Beatus... Ahh." When Selvia got a little closer, she immediately recognized who the voice belonged to. The clear, pearl-like voice filled the garden with its seductive tone. 'Leliana.' It was a voice she had heard countless times. She knew all too well the voice Leliana used when seducing men. An enigmatic…
