It was not uncommon for guests from distant places to arrive around this time, in case of delays in their itinerary.
The host would prepare a castle for the guests to stay in so that they could spend their time there comfortably. Since it was only a preliminary welcome, Arnold, a member of the royal family, would be going alone.
“How far away is that city?”
“It’s a city on the western coast. It’s about four days by carriage.”
“It must be difficult for you to travel so far in your busy schedule…”“When we went to the Holy Kingdom of Domana recently, I collaborated with Theodore on an experiment, and it was successful. If I use the same approach and work along the way, there shouldn’t be any problems.”
Although this was gratifying, Rishe was still unsettled.
His Highness won’t be here for a while.
She unconsciously looked down.
Rishe unknowingly reached out and grabbed Arnold’s sleeve tightly.
Then Arnold gently asked.
“What’s wrong?”“Um…”
The gentle way he asked upset her, but that wasn’t the reason she couldn’t speak.
“This is – well, what…?”
Rishe, more than anyone else, was perturbed by her own actions.
Arnold would be gone. It was hard to describe how she was feeling about that fact.
Could this be…
She turned her head and pondered.
Could it be? I want to go with His Highness…
“Do you want to come along?”
“Huh?”
Rishe raised her head, cringing because he seemed to have read her mind.
“To the beach.”
“… !!”
When he asked so seriously, Rishe nodded.
“I want to go!! To the beach!!”
She replied so sincerely that Arnold bowed his head as if in contemplation.
“But you have to prepare for the wedding. If I take you with me, I’m afraid you’ll push yourself too hard again.”
“For that matter, it’s no big deal to make arrangements on the trip…”
After all, this was a marriage of the royal family.
The busiest person right now was not Rishe, but the diplomats and the people involved in the proceedings of the ceremony. The number of things that Rishe had to do herself was dwindling.
“…”
Arnold looked down at Rishe’s hand that was clinging on his sleeve impassively.
Afterward, he replied calmly.
“Then I’m taking you with me.”
“!”
She was so happy that a flower quickly bloomed in her heart.
Garkhain’s beach…
She nodded quickly, but it was true that she wanted to go to the beach.
If foreign ships were arriving, there would be a lot to see there. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and her eyes sparkled.
“Oliver, make arrangements.”
“As you wish, leave it to me.”
“Thank you, Oliver-sama. By the way, who are the guests this time?”
If they were going to the western coast, they must be coming from the western or southern continent.
She was thinking of the list of invited guests when Arnold answered.
“Sigwell Country, Prince Curtis and his sister Harriet.”
“…”
It was the name of a country that Rishe was familiar with.
I’ve never met Her Highness Princess Harriet, but I know His Highness Curtis quite well.
She remembered and let out a short breath.
It’s the royal family that I served during my hunter’s life.
