Haunted Duke’s Daughter

And some meet like every day. Broso has been watching Lilia in a discreet place all morning. Be able to move whenever you need something. Lilia is pushing Broso out of consciousness as far as possible. When you become conscious, it’s because of that noticeable outfit that you immediately catch your eye.

One more. I also met Keith, the red-haired boy, every day. Lilia just never had a direct conversation with Keith. Tina always finds it first and goes to talk. You don’t seem to want me to talk to Lilia, but I don’t even know why. I just get really worried because every time I come back I have a depressed look on my face.

“What are you always talking about?”

Asked on her way back to the inn, Tina shook her head, sadly laying her eyes down, but nothing.

“If it’s nothing, why are you always crying so much?”

“Huh? Well, that’s not true. Oh, my God.”

I wanted to wait for Tina to talk to me from herself if I could, but Lilia is the limit of patience too. Every time I see Keith, Tina loses her energy. Just watching, it’s unpleasant, to be honest.

“You’re yelling at me every time I see you, aren’t you? Did Tina do something to that girl?

“I didn’t.”

“Then why?

Tina got a bitter look and mumbled. You still don’t want to tell me, you’re taking your eyes off Lilia and thinking about it.

– Lilia. It’s not good to be forced.

– Yes… Right.

Lilia nodded and said to Tina.

“I’m sorry. You were mean. I’ll listen to you when you want to.”

Tina sighed relieved when she heard that. Watching that made me miss you a little bit for some reason.

Breaking up with Tina on the front porch of the inn, Lilia returns to her room. There’s a big bear sitting on the table. There was nothing I could do about it at this point, and I left it here. Lilia sat down on the chair and took a breath when she could hold it, the little bear stuffed animal she had on its side, which Tina gave her.

– You had fun today! Especially that Doraki grill was delicious! Let’s go eat again before we go home.

I sighed at Sakura’s voice and remembered the name of the store. Remember that again. Now there are three stores where Sakura said she wants to go again. For now, I can still remember.

– Lilia by the way. You like it?

Sakura Inquiry. Normally, that’s all I don’t know what you’re referring to, but Lilia immediately understood and made a tannic surface. It must be about the stuffed animal Lilia is holding. I don’t even want to collect anything else, but I do feel good holding it somehow.

– Just a little bit, huh…

– Hey, unexpected… More like this, even though I have the image of wearing a ring full of gems and saying, “Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho.”

– What kind of person am I in you?

– You’ve never done it?

――…………

Answer with or without, there is. Rather, it’s just been shitty lately because Sakura has stopped it, and Lilia prefers to collect gems and such. That remains the same now.

– You can either.

When Lilia said that like it was rotten, Sakura just laughed, well.

– Lilia by the way. Have you forgotten?

– Huh? Oh… Yeah, you did.

I’m back in my room a little earlier than usual today. Lilia takes the big bear stuffed animal to the corner of the room and cleans it up on the table. That’s how I opened the door and put my face outside.

“May I have a moment?

Speaking to Broso, who stood at the side of the door, he shook his body a little surprised and turned towards Lilia. I don’t know the look on your face because of your helmet, but it would be confusing.

“Let’s talk a little bit. Come.”

That’s what I say, then I go back to my room. Broso walked right into the room. However, when I was scared, I was looking all over the room, and my behavior became suspicious. While grinning bitterly at the look of it, Lilia punches the table with her fingers and turns her attention. Pointing to the chair in front of me, Lilia said.

“Sit down there.”

Broso obeyed with great admiration and sat at the chair Lilia instructed. Lilia also sits face-to-face across the table. Staring at Broso, he moved his neck to distract him.

– If you look at it this way, it’s easy to understand.

– Haha. Right.

It was only in the beginning that I could not see my face and there was an atmosphere that I couldn’t get close enough to not speak, but when I confronted him like this, I realized that the impression was a mistake. It never seems like a difficult personality.

Lilia smiled slightly, she said.

“Take it easy. I’m not gonna do anything.”

Broso returns his gaze to Lilia.

“I just called because I wanted to thank you. Let me see your face, but I won’t tell you to speak up. It’s just, yeah. Nod or shake my head when I hear something.”

He seemed a little troubled, but eventually Broso snorted firmly.

“For starters, yeah. Thanks for the escort. I’m sorry you walk outside every day. You must be tired because you have to be very uptight all the time.”

With that said, Broso shook his head with momentum. Lilia continues with a bitter smile.

“That’s what I’m gonna do. I’ll be begging you for a while.”

Broso snorted firmly and Lilia snorted satisfactorily as well.

“By the way, Broso is from this town, isn’t he? Did you see your family properly?

I nodded again this time. And somewhere the air felt softer. Somehow, but I think Broso is laughing.

“Broso seems to be trusted by your brother, and I wonder if your family would be proud”

Now, I didn’t show any reaction. As Lilia tilted her neck, Broso shook slowly and for the first time. I’m a little surprised about that.

“Your family was really against it, or something?

When I asked him that, Broso nodded heavily. I know the values are different for people, but they seem very surprising. Lilia, yes, and crushing,

“You’ve heard hard things to say. Bye, Broso. You can go home now.”

Broso tilts his neck, Lilia says, laughing a little bit.

“I’m not going out anymore today, so come see your family. I’m sorry, I didn’t realize.”

After a moment of stiffness, Broso immediately shook his head vigorously. And I bowed my head.

“Because I will not be too late in the future. Because of this, and take care of your time with your family.”

Broso bowed his head again and quietly left the room.
