When I Saved a Girl Who Was About to Be Kidnapped and It Turned Out to Be a Princess Who Had Come to Visit in Secret
“– Do you want me to work out for you, ……?”
The next morning, while Luna was still in her dream, I asked Ayla-chan.
I was uncomfortable asking her to do so while in a fallen position because Luna was still holding me, but Ayla would not complain as long as Luna was her first priority.
“Yeah, I was thinking about it yesterday. I’m sure it’s impossible for me to be worthy of Luna,……, but if I make an effort to be that way, I think Lily will recognize me a little bit. Of course, studying is also important, so I want to do my best in that area as well. Besides, I want to be able to escape on my own, because if I get kidnapped easily like I did yesterday, I’ll be a nuisance to everyone.”
I told Ayla what I had thought about all night.
And then――she looked extremely displeased.
It was clearly visible on her face.
“You don’t have to look so disgusted!”
I thought she might make a small complaint, but I didn’t expect her to reject me with her face.
In fact, I was even hoping that maybe Ayla would start to see me in a new light.
“No,…… I didn’t think you were going to step through a landmine like this,…… completely, it was unexpected.”
“Mines?”
Eh, what are you talking about ……?
What did I say that was so bad ……?
As I was wondering about this, Ayla then turned both palms towards the sky as if to say, “Oh dear,” and shook her head.
“I was surprised that Seito-sama, who seems to hate studying and exercising, would try so hard to drive Lily-sama away. He must have been so upset about yesterday’s incident.”
“No, what do you mean?! I’m sure you’re saying that on purpose.”
I was sure she was intentionally making fun of me by taking it in a strange way.
I guessed that, and I made a comment, but Ayla put her finger in front of her nose and gave me a shooing motion.
It might have been natural since Luna was sleeping, but it was not clear to me that the source of the problem was made aware of it.
“Well, I was joking, but I thought that what Seito-sama was trying to do was to finally do so.”
And then there’s this cool, cool, flowing feeling of silliness.
I seriously think it’s sly.
I hope she gets hurt once by Luna.
–But I also think that such an attitude is cute, so I thought people are complicated …….
“What do you mean ……?”
“Whatever you are about to do, Seito-sama, will of course place a burden on you, and you will need something, right?”
“What do you mean …..? I don’t mean that I have to start out with such a big–”
“No, it’s time.”
“Ah, ……”
With that being said, I guessed what Ayla was trying to say.
The point is, she seems to want to say that it will use the time with Luna, and that will be to disrespect Luna.
“Luna-sama will be quite rooted to the core if the time she can spend with Seito-sama, not to mention the time she can be pampered, is reduced. And to Lily-sama, who gave Seito-sama a reason to work hard–”
“Wait, I understand. I understand, so you don’t have to tell everyone.”
Ayla spoke threateningly with a serious expression, so I was afraid to hear more and immediately told her to stop.
As a result, she didn’t continue any further
“I think I told you this before, but you should only think about Luna-sama. We do not want anything more than that. After what happened yesterday, we may not be able to convince you, but if there is any …… danger, we will protect you even at the cost of our own lives.”
