n“Oh, but. There is also a hunting contest for the event that the best grades go to. If you had come, you would have met Rieta.”

n“I pondered that for a while. Just . . .”

nElisha clutched at his head as if he was in deep agony.

n“I thought it would be better for me not to go. Obviously, blinded by the glorious light that is emitted from the Princess, I am sure to fail.”

n“There is no such light from the Princess.”

n“It exists. Only those who are truly loyal can see.”

nNoel barely stopped himself from asking, ‘Isn’t it just your poor eyesight?’

nBecause he just brought Noel cold water.

nOn a hot day like this, he was served with ice water.

nNoel simply said, “You are the best servant, as expected,” and then he took a bite of ice.

nWere you happy with the phrase ‘the best servant’?

nElisha gave Noel an ice cube.

nAfter the appointment with Elisha was made, Rieta dragged Noel to her dressing room whenever she had free time.

n“Noel, what should I wear to look like a Princess?”

n“It doesn’t matter what you wear, but wouldn’t it be hot in this type of clothing?”

n“Even if it’s hot, I want to look like a great Princess.”

n“Don’t worry.”

n“Rieta, you look great no matter what you wear!” Noel was about to say something like this, but his playful sense of humor was activated.

n“He’ll tell you that even if you pull your pants over her head, you’ll still be overflowing with dignity.”

nOf course, Rieta cried out, saying, “I won’t do that!”, and Noel laughed because her expression was so funny.

nThe fun time passed steadily, and it was only a day before Rieta and Elisha met.

nNoel hurried to prepare to go see Elisha early this morning.

nIt’s already been several times since he went to the military academy, and he doesn’t know why he was in such a hurry every time he went.

nI mean, I’m feeling strangely insecure.

nBecause of those cadets who thought badly of Elisha.

nThey seemed to be waiting for Noel to lose interest in Elisha.

nSo when they found out that Noel didn’t visit, it seemed obvious they would be excited to pick a fight with Elisha.

nIf they looked even a little bit, they would know that the Princess of Liz is in our mansion, so we might have a deeper relationship than they think . . .

nNoel thought it was really strange that they didn’t notice anything.

nBut they were entangled within their own circumstances.

nThey were pessimistic about their current situation and just finding someone to vent their anger on.

nIn any case, there was no way for young Noel to know how they felt.

nHe prepared to go out and finally got one of his handkerchiefs for Elisha.

nIt was engraved with the Duchy’s emblem, just like the one he once gave to Rieta.

nHe doesn’t know if Elisha will use it well, but he wondered if it would be better than nothing at all.

nIs this showing too much kindness?

nNoel glanced down at the handkerchief. Looking at it, he thought for a moment.

nActually, he didn’t dislike Elisha that much.

nUm . . . why did I hate him? Because he was going to take Rieta.

nThat was really too much.

nBut now the problem has been solved.

nNoel was also going to follow to the kingdom.

nAnd again, Rieta and I looked so close.

nOf course, that problem was now resolved.

nNow, Noel and Rieta have a “close friend” relationship, which Elisha also admitted.

nWell, then . . . Is there any reason to hate him?

nHe had been thinking about it, but there doesn’t seem to be a reason.

nBesides, Rieta liked it so much when Noel helped Elisha just a bit.

nIf you knew that I even gave him a handkerchief, would she like it that much again?

nNoel remembered Rieta, who was hanging on to his neck and hanging on.

nIt was incredibly heavy, but Noel really liked that weight.

nOkay, let’s bring it!

nHe put the handkerchief in his arms and smiled.

nAt the same time, he was told by the servant that had prepared the carriage.

nNoel hurried his steps.

nIt was a bit disappointing to think that today was the last day of the military academy visits he made every day.

nWhen he went out near the front door, he saw the carriage ready for him to ride, just as the servant had said.

nBut it wasn’t the only one.

nBehind it stood another carriage.

nWho is it?

nNoel thought so for a moment, but

nThe moment he glanced inside the carriage, he quickly backed away and quickly hid behind the decorations in the hall.

n“Gasp!”

nUnknowingly, a startling sound came out, so he quickly covered his mouth with both hands.

nThe gentleman who got off the carriage was none other than the professor who taught Noel the piano.

nHe had promised to go to class early in the morning because the weather had been becoming hot lately.
