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
“Our …… encounter, is it?”
Luna asks, returning a nice smile.
She looks heartily happy.
Perhaps she wanted someone to ask.
“As long as you can talk, it’s fine.”
The chairwoman exhales in relief and returns the same smile.
This causes Luna to look at me.
I guess she’s checking with me, just in case.
“Yeah, It’s okay.”
I don’t know how much Luna will tell me, but she’s a smart girl.
She should be able to discern the line where she can talk more than I can.
She seems to want to talk, and I’ve decided to let her talk as she likes.
“Yes. ……”
Luna closes her eyes nostalgically.
It happened only a month ago, but it probably feels like the distant past to her.
It seems like a lot has happened in Arcadia, and I think she’s had an intense time since she came to live in Japan, so I feel like that can’t be helped.
I picked up the cup with her slowly opening her mouth beside me.
And as I was gulping down the drink–
“When I was about to be taken away, Seito-sama saved me”
“Gohu ……!”
Luna was so honest about it that I got a drink in my windpipe.
It was carbonated, so my throat burned and hurt.
“S-Seito-sama, are you alright ……!?”
As I coughed, Luna looked at me worriedly.
However, it seemed like everyone was not interested in me, but in what Luna said.
“When you say they’re about to take you away, do you mean you’re about to get kidnapped?!”
“Alford-san, are you all right?!”
Everyone interprets what Luna said earlier as a kidnapping and looks at her with concern.
–Naturally.
It’s impossible not to be worried after hearing something like that.
“L-Luna, it’s okay. …… Explain to everyone…….”
I hold my throat with my hand and urge Luna to explain.
If I don’t, there will be an unforeseen misunderstanding.
“Ah, …… yes, it was all right. As I said earlier, Seito-sama saved me.”
Following my words, Luna smiles at everyone.
However, she doesn’t deny that it was a kidnapping.
Well, if I answered that they were the ones who came to bring her back, that might not be the best explanation. ……
“Kiriyama kun, you are very brave …….”
“To Alford-san, Kiriyama-kun is a prince. ……”
“So that’s why you call him sama. ……”
Everyone seemed to believe what Luna was saying without question, and looked at me with very passionate eyes.
When someone looks at me like that, I can’t help but let my gaze wander.
I feel like I’m rapidly becoming embarrassed …….
