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
“–Thank you for waiting.”
When I opened the door, there was a beautiful girl standing there with a cute smile on her face.
It was Luna, who had just left the room to go back to change her clothes.
Luna was wearing a light blue one-piece dress in the style of a young lady.
The collar was white with a pretty ribbon.
What was a little surprising was that it was off-the-shoulder, meaning that the shoulders were open.
The shoulder part was open, and there was a frill attached to the open part, which was cute, but an unusual choice for royalty who don’t tend to show a lot of skin.
–No, well, I have my doubts about the part about showing skin……
After all, Luna always wears my shirt when she sleeps.
However, at least her usual clothes are not revealing much skin, even though it is summer.
In other words, she is dressed differently than usual.
“You look so good and so cute.”
She even said herself that it was a date, and I could tell that she had put a lot of effort into her outfit.
So, I tried to be honest with her.
At times like this, Rion would get cranky if I didn’t compliment her, so you could say I’m taking advantage of that experience.
“C-Cute? Ehehe……”
Luna’s expression slackens as if she was happy to be praised.
Seeing her child-like smile still makes me feel at peace.
In front of people other than me, she seems like a dignified and elegant adult woman, but in front of me, she shows her true side like this, which made me feel happy.
“—I think it’s time for you to leave now, since you have a train to catch.”
Well, Ayla chan is there, too.
“Right, let’s go.”
I nodded with a smile at Ayla-chan, who reminded me of the time, and locked the door to my room and lined up next to Luna.
“…………”
As soon as we started walking, Luna started glancing up at me.
Apparently, she is alternately looking at my face and my arm.
Perhaps–
“We’re not going to school today, so you can do whatever you want, okay?”
I knew what Luna wanted to do, so I encouraged her with a smile.
It seemed to be a good idea, and Luna’s face lit up and she hugged me with a big smile on her face.
Of course, her head was resting on my shoulder as if to pamper herself.
I guess she wanted to be hugged after all.
[–Hmmm ……After all, Seito-sama is not just a gentle man, is he? I thought he was not very perceptive, but when he realizes the favors that are directed at him unexpectedly, he seems to be very perceptive? Maybe he just doesn’t have confidence in himself.]
Behind me, Ayla chan was mumbling to herself with her hand on her chin.
I guess she was saying something about me and Luna, but I couldn’t understand her at all because she was speaking in English, and her expressionless face made me think that she was muttering a curse.
To be honest, I was a little scared.
Even though I knew she was a kind girl at heart, I still couldn’t seem to get used to her.
“Come to think of it, I wonder if it was a good thing we didn’t drive there?”
As we walk toward the station, I ask Luna something that is too late to ask.
I had been so ingrained with the idea of walking to the supermarket for shopping and taking the train to the playground that the thought of going by car had never occurred to me.
That’s why I was late in asking her.
In response to my question, Luna glanced at Ayla chan.
It seems that Ayla chan has something in mind.
“While in Japan, she said she wanted to lead a normal life as a student, so we did not arrange a car for her. For Luna-sama, trains and buses are a rarity, so she would like to take advantage of this opportunity.”
I see, so it was for Luna’s sake
It is true that she walks to school, and if she had no chance to ride in Arcadia, trains and buses would be rare.
However—
“I guess she probably drove the car for distances not that far, but as expected, she must have ridden the Shinkansen at least once, right?”
There is a limit to how far you can travel by car.
Of course, it is not impossible if they stay overnight while traveling, but I doubt that the busy royalty would go out of their way to do so.
So I figured that if they were taking the Shinkansen, trains wouldn’t be that unusual–
“All long-distance travel is done by jets owned by the Arcadia family, so we don’t bother to use the bullet train,”
–This is beyond my imagination.
You mean a private jet. ……
I knew it, super rich royalty is different. ……
“I’ve only been on a plane once, on a school trip when I was in ninth grade. ……”
“If so, you should definitely come to Arcadia when you visit us ……! A date in the sky is a wonderful idea, isn’t it ……?!”
Luna, who had been silent since Ayla-chan was going to explain on her behalf, suddenly started talking with sparkling eyes.
From the looks of it, it seems that Luna wants to have an air travel date.
“There are ways to buy it in Japan or rent it out without having to go back to Arcadia, but it would be noticeable.”
After all, for what it’s worth, Ayla chan is probably quite sweet to Luna.
The princess’s outrageous proposal is being thought about in the direction of be realized.
To be honest, I’d be too sorry and heartbroken as a civilian if I had to buy a jet for a date, get a private charter, etc. …….
Well, the intention is not to show off, so it should never be realized in Japan …….
I wonder if this would have been realized normally if Luna hadn’t snuck in here. ……
“Actually, I wonder if Arcadia is safe for me to go in?”
There are even some rich people who go there on vacation, so I’m sure it’s probably okay – after all, it’s a standpoint.
The first and eighth princesses are the only ones who seem to be very welcoming, but I’m not sure if it’s safe to go there.
“In any case, it is necessary for you to visit us at some point. Isn’t that right, Luna-sama?”
Ayla-chan answered me in a nonchalant manner, then spoke to Luna in an unusual way.
I think this is the first time I’ve seen this kind of confirmation since we started being together.
Or rather, it seems quite deliberate.
When Luna was asked to speak, she said…
“W-Well, yes, it’s important. ……”
–why, her face was reddening.
Why ……?
The reason is that her reaction was so unexpected that I couldn’t help but tilt my head back.
Luna shyly looked away from me and looked down for some reason.
[For marriage, we need to have a face to face meeting. ……]
She mumbled something, but unfortunately I couldn’t catch it because she was speaking in English.
“Luna, what’s wrong ……?”
“N-no, it’s nothing. Please don’t worry.”
I was curious, so I asked her, but she smiled at me and deceived me.
The smile seemed to be forced, and I became even more worried.
What in the world is in store for me in the future?
I felt a little uneasy.
