In Ze'at, Leolde waited for the messenger to arrive. Every second that ticked seemed strangely long to him, and he cleared his throat nervously.

 In an attempt to keep his cool, he started to do some paperwork to pass the time until the messenger arrived.

 While he was immersed in his paperwork for a while, Isabelle informed him that a visitor had arrived. Lelrde, wondering who it could be at a time like this, heard the name of the guest and immediately went out to greet him.

 When he went to the entrance, he found Sylvia standing there with her bodyguards.

"Welcome, Your Highness. What brings you to me today?"

 When Leolde tilted his head and wondered why Sylvia had come at such a time, Sylvia answered clearly.

 "Sir Leolde. I heard that a messenger from the empire is coming to see you."

"Yes, . Is that why you are in Ze'at?"

"Yes. I thought that sir Leolde was in trouble, and I couldn't stand still. So I came here."

(Hmmm... ...... doesn't sound like a lie. And if I have Sylvia, I may be able to negotiate more effectively. ......)

 That's right. If Leolde had been alone, he might have had a hard time negotiating, but with Sylvia as the princess, he could be a check.

"You are right. Thank you for taking the trouble to do this for me. Please come inside.""

 Although it was a sudden visit, Leolde gladly welcomed Sylvia into the mansion. After welcoming her into the reception room, Leolde left Isabelle to take care of her and cleaned up the remaining documents.

 After finishing the paperwork, Leolde went to the reception room to take care of Sylvia. For some reason, even Charlotte was there.

"Your Highness. What do you think the Empire is planning to do?'

" I think it's more likely that they are trying to win over sir  Leolde heart ."

 "However, although I can't say for sure that it's the Empire's fault,  sir Leolde probably doesn't think well of the Empire since the Empire left  your younger siblings with deep scars.

 I'm sure the Empire understands that. Therefore, it is impossible to win  you over. If that's the case, there is the possibility of forming a marriage relationship, but I'm sure they understand that  sir Leolde-  will not have a relationship with an Imperial  nobility .

 I" don't want to think about it, but perhaps we can frame him for a false crime."

"False charges? No, sir Lelrde.

" The waterworks you created in Ze'at are very similar to those in the Empire. It is possible to pin the blame on you, Master Leolde, if you take advantage of that.?

 If you say that he stole the Empire's technology, it is difficult for  him to deny it.

(No, I want you to do your best to deny it. ......)

 Leolde, who keeps his true feelings in his heart, gives a safe opinion .

"It's hard to say that I'm just copying  them ?

"It's difficult. The Empire is the largest country in the continent, so it has a monopoly on technology and keeps it secret. In any case, if you try to sell the technology to another country, you will be killed without question.

"I see. So, are they going to say that i  stole it from them?

"That's just a guess. I can't say for sure until  we  actually talk to him ."

"All right, then. Then let's wait a little longer."

 They were about to start chatting over a cup of tea that Isabelle had prepared, when Charlotte, who had been in the air, became angry.

"Hey! You can't leave me behind !

"No, you don't like this kind of thing, do you?"

"I don't know. I don't have time for your bullshit."

"That's true, but you could at least keep me company for a while."

"I'm talking to  hwe Highness now.You and I can talk some other time."

"Mmm! Hey, Sylvia! Would you like to have a love affair with me?"

"Love? No,  that can wait for another time."

Seeing the terrifyingly angry Sylvia, Leolde shook his head when he saw something strange. he was even more surprised because he thought she wouldn't be so angry like a love bana.

".But Sylvia is pretty much a--"

"Wow! Waaaah! Wow!"

"So, Your Highness?

 Leorde was surprised to see Sylvia in a panic, and Charlotte was laughing her head off at the sight of them.

"Hey, Char! What did you do to her Highness! No way, did you use some kind of mental interference magic?"

"I didn't do anything like that! I was just teasing  her a bit."

"Are you sure, Your Highness? Is there anything strange?

 Sylvia's heart felt like it was going to explode as Leolde  anxiously approached Sylvia. She had been calm and serious just now, but Charlotte's words made Sylvia conscious of Leolde.

 Thanks to that, she was now in a panic. Unable to look at him properly, Sylvia looked at Charlotte in frustration.

"Your Highness? I knew something wrong 

 Leorde noticed that Sylvia was staring at Charlotte and questioned her.

"It's not your  my blame , I'm telling you.

 You are the cause of the problem, Leolde.

"What? Is that so, Your Highness?"

"That's not what I meant. ......"

 The volume of her voice became lower and lower, so Leolde approached Sylvia and asked her again.

"What did you say? Your Highness, I couldn't hear you, so please repeat it!"

"Ahh... ......""

 When he saw Sylvia shrinking even more, He was sure that what Charlotte said was true. Realizing that he was the cause of the problem, Leoldo quietly left Sylvia's side.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. I am truly sorry for the inconvenience I have caused you.'

 When Sylvia saw Leolde bowing deeply, she was troubled

 Charlotte, perhaps satisfied with the sight of the two of them, secretly disappeared.
