Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 729



Chapter 729

Radan·

In fact, I don’t know anything about it because I’ve never had any reason or need to be interested in it, except that it’s a desert kingdom. The only thing I know is that the Jinn, who can be called Ogwen’s kind neighbors, are similar in appearance to the Middle Eastern people of her previous life.

But that’s all

As a result, I had to read almost a book-sized amount of documents on the carriage to the capital to supplement my meager knowledge.

You may think, “Why am I doing this when I’m not the one doing diplomacy with Radan?” But I’m doing this because I’m in a situation where I have to do something on the fringes of diplomacy.

It is not that the Itisel royal family refused to cooperate.

Rather, the king himself stepped forward to help, promising active cooperation to the point where it was burdensome to expect the Return of the Princess of the Charlemagne to begin. Even if it were a bridge for exchanges with Radan, their argument was that the scale of the issues we had to deal with was so large that it should be led by a warrior who protects humanity, not a head of state.

And that was a perfectly reasonable claim.

Even in the same continent, there are countries that turn a deaf ear to the threats of the Demon King and the Evil God, so how seriously and seriously would Radan across the sea take this?

There is a strong possibility that diplomatic issues will drag things out or lead to a war of wits, so the title of warrior is essential to prevent this from happening.

There must be a warrior who can take the lead and set an example so that there is no misunderstanding that she is the face madam.

Yeah, sadly that’s me.

Since I was at the center of all the incidents, it was impossible to even give Siegfried a break. Because of that, I’m having to study by rote again, which I hadn’t done properly recently because I was just using my body, and I’m so awkward I’m dying.

“Huh, is that true?”

“Then it’s true, Eldi was so passionate about learning, and even trained without resting during that time, so every single day was amazing.”

But, whether or not they know my grievance, the women riding in the carriage are only interested in Asili’s ‘Eldmia’s past story’ rather than my hard work of studying in the shaking carriage.

“The saying ‘a man of both civil and military talent’ really suits me. It makes my shoulders rise with pride.”

To be more precise, I am only showing great interest in Esmu.

Cheryl, who had joined us without much thought, was unable to accept the situation as she felt cognitive dissonance at the two people’s reactions and kept glaring at me with questions like, ‘Why is the imperial princess sitting on your lap and feeling proud of how great you are? Why do you take it for granted and why does Asili treat the princess like that and talk to her so comfortably?’

Rather, I would like to ask why, despite the presence of Cheryl, she is coming out as if she had Ragnis.

Honestly, I can guess why Ashili is talking like that to Esmue. She must be upset because I’ve been neglecting her lately. So, even though she knows that I’m a reincarnated person, she’s talking as if I was a prodigy since I was young and smiling wickedly.

I was also busy, so I could say it was unfair, but I can understand and accept it. I actually feel sorry, so I have nothing to say.

But why Cheryl? Does it really look like a cat to me because I’m always saying long cat long cat…?

Given the circumstances, the concentration I had managed to maintain for studying had already been broken for a long time. I simply kept my eyes on the document with superhuman patience, pretending not to hear or know anything, so as not to let Cheryl know that I had been distracted for a long time.

But even that kind of acting was useless in the face of the question Ashili asked.

“Anyway, it’s nice to see LD studying after such a long time… but aren’t you dizzy?”

Even though I was slightly upset and throwing a tantrum, it was obvious what the consequences would be if I ignored her words. In the end, all I could do was suppress my urge to close my eyes tightly and pretend to be indifferent while answering.

“Yeah, it’s okay because my body is smart.”

“······huh?”

Even if it is a carriage equipped with the most advanced imperial suspension, it is unreasonable to expect stability on an unpaved open ground.

Even Esmue, who was reading a document written in something for a very short time at the beginning of the move, said that it was not working and put it down to focus on the conversation. Naturally, he was using the strange luxury of using his magic power to read the text stably.

“It’s strangely like Siegfried that you sometimes say things that don’t make sense. Is it because you have something in common that you became close so quickly?”

Esmue’s remark, which made me look up at her with a strange reaction to my nonsense and a hollow laugh, almost made me blurt out, ‘No matter what, it’s a bit much to be treated like Siegfried…’ I thought I had barely held it in, but Cheryl, who couldn’t hold it in any longer, spoke for the first time.

“What the heck is this situation···?”

It wasn’t a question about the situation where he chose to travel long distances by carriage instead of flying a dragon to the capital to show off that he was fine after the fight with the Demon King.

“Why are the princess and Asili talking? Why is the princess… so distant from Eldmia?”

I couldn’t help but be shocked as I raised my head and put the document aside, thinking that the question that expressed my feelings exactly, except for the question, ‘Why in front of Cheryl?’, seemed to have ended my acting.

“Why are you looking at me like that···?”

Both Ashlie and Esmue looked back and forth between me and Cheryl with expressions that said, ‘Oh no!’

“No way? No way?”

“Hey, that’s what I wanted to ask you! You didn’t know?”

“No, really? Are you kidding Eldi? Of course I’ll take Cheryl too…”

“······Hey you two, stop joking. Are you doing this on purpose to tease me? Haha······ Tell me that quickly··· Please·”

Despite my earnest pleas, there was no reply.

There are just two people who avoid my gaze.

Even Esmie, of all people, was mistaken? Where on earth did such a misunderstanding come from…

“······Is this really the situation I’m thinking of?”

As I was lost in the bewildering situation that was so difficult to understand, I heard Cheryl’s voice in my ear.

“Cheryl too?”

Cheryl definitely has a lot in common with me.

But there were only two things that were different among them, one was gender and···

“Eldmia, you… are you dating two people…?”

···One was the eye·

Cheryl, who turned her head stiffly and looked at me because of the tension, understood the situation as soon as she met my eyes, even though she didn’t say a word.

“···Why?”

And he started to look as if he had lost his country just as much as I did.

I was the one who caused this absurd and unprecedented coming out incident.

It’s really unfair, but they say it really was me.

“Don’t you think that he’s someone who blindly likes you? He doesn’t reject it and accepts it all, so of course···”

“Ahhh! Aaaahhh!”

I didn’t want to be convinced, but in front of Esmu’s logical and urgent rebuttal, I couldn’t help but become a squid bombed with facts.

Cheryl had to become a screaming beetroot. Cheryl, who was suddenly subjected to a public execution on the level of a love letter reading, threw away all of her usual composure and didn’t know what to do. In the end, it was up to Ashlie, who was somewhat close to her, to calm her down.

To be honest, I’m not the same person I used to be because I’ve experienced things through Esmu and Ragnis. I’m not 100% tactful, but I’ve gotten a little better, so I’m proud to say that I was aware of the fact that Cheryl had feelings for me.

But I thought it was more like a deep brotherly love that you would see in Tokyo or comics, and I never thought it was romantic love.

And it was still the same now.

“No, but where on earth do those actions show romantic feelings···”

So I had no choice but to speak, even though I knew that I was trying to refute her without any arguments. Then, Ashili and Esmue, who were at a loss and embarrassed, looked at each other with strange expressions and answered as if they had made a promise.

“Just like LD, you lack awareness and are clumsy.”

“I’m just as clumsy and lacking in insight as you are.”

“···Ughh …

It was a good thing the carriage was heavily soundproofed, otherwise everyone would have seen this hopeless mess.

While I was dumbfounded by the two people’s answers that seemed so obvious, Cheryl, who couldn’t hold it in any longer, burst into tears.

Even in the moment when she fought the Demon King and her whole body was destroyed, she didn’t shed a single tear, but when I saw her start to cry with her ears red from shame, my mentality almost wavered, but surprisingly, what held her mentality together was Esmue’s strange travels.

“Huh, uh, uh, uh, uh···”

“I feel sorry for you, but Ragnis, who you thought was your only rival, is actually included in our relationship···”

“Huhhhhh! Huuuuuuuuu!!”

“If you ask why… Aside from asking me to reveal my status, when there is a trigger, love tends to… suddenly strike… But don’t take it too badly. We have already prepared ourselves mentally. Isn’t that why I spoke to you so brazenly?”

“Huh···?”

Can you understand Cheryl’s crying, almost babbling words?

“···How on earth do you understand?”

I was involuntarily struck by his amazing ability to understand language, more so than his ability to embarrass the next emperor.

And in return, he had to face the icy axe eyes of three women.

It was a part where you could intuitively sense that the carriage journey to the capital would not be smooth.

How on earth did things get to this point···
