Sylvia's question confused Leolde, but now that he was asked, he had to answer something. However, he does not know what kind of answer will satisfy Sylvia.

Sylvia expects a little when she sees Leolde who doesn't respond at all. If she does not harbor any favor should be immediate response to her supposedly as her vassal. But that's not the case either. Then, Sylvia thought that at least Leolde  might have a different feeling to  for her  than as a vassal.

"It is the duty of a vassal to protect his ...... highness.

 It was a bland answer, but the fact that it took him so long to formulate it convinced Sylvia that Leorde had other thoughts as well.

"Sir Leolde. There are only two of us here, you and me. Please tell me what you really think, not just what you say."

 Sylvia attacked, saying that now was the only time to  ask it. If she  miss this opportunity,  she don't know when the next one will be. Besides, if she is not careful, she might lose Leolde to another woman.

 After all, Leolde  was the one who led the war to an end, so there was no way the country would stand idly by. They will probably force him to marry into the royal family to keep him around. If that happens, a woman from the royal family will marry  him , not Sylvia, who was rejected before.

(Oh ...... I hate it. Originally, the role of holding Sir Leolde  around could be any woman of the royal family. But I don't want that. I'm not going to allow any other woman to be next to  sir Leolde. What a, what a despicable woman, I am ....... I can't believe I let my emotions get the better of me and do something to the detriment of the royal family.)

 What an ugly woman, Sylvia thought to herself in self-loathing. But even so, Sylvia is desperately trying to protect her love, not wanting to lose or be taken away from Leolde.

(Love is such a tricky thing, isn't it? I've never heard of it before. The pain in heart, the jealousy that  grown and growen , and the love and hate that swells up the stronger I feels. I love  him ,  I hate him  at the same time. Why can't you understand my feelings? I wonder. That's what I'm thinking. Oh, really, what a nasty and sweet thing love is. ............)

 Sylvia is helplessly in love with Leolde . When they first met, it was at a birthday  party and Leolde  was arrogant and uninterested.

 Then time passed, and as if he had changed , Leolde  made his name known. That was when it started. It was then that Sylvia began to take a serious interest in Leolde.

 It has now turned into love, and is still tormenting and debauching Sylvia like this. She was not in a position to allow herself to be selfish, but she really wanted to make this love come true.

"...... Do you mean it?

"Yes. Could you tell me about it?"

"...... Why do you want to know?

"So, let me ask you this, Leolde, do you feel nothing when your men give you relics for free?

 It is true that if his subordinates gave  her a relic for free, she would have guessed that there was something behind it. So, Leolde understood what Sylvia was trying to say. He knew that she wanted to know the purpose of the  giving of the relic, so he spoke his mind.

I just didn't want  you to die, When   I  heard that the war had started, I felt that  her Highness' life was in danger. I knew that the emperor would probably send assassins to kill  you ."

"Is that all?"

 He didn't want  her to die, which was the undeniable truth .

"That's all.

"Why did you not want me to die, Sir Leolde?"

"Why ......?"

 

Immediately unable to answer, Leolde  dives into a sea of thoughts. If you ask  him why, it's because  he didn't want  her to die.

 

 The answer to that question still eluded Leolde . When Sylvia saw that Leolde  was seriously troubled and confused, she guessed that Leolde did not understand his own feelings.

"Sir Leolde. Don't think too much about it, okay?

"............"

. When he was told that, Leolde  thought more simply. If  he don't want  her to die, then  he want  her to live.

 So why do you want her to live? Is it because Sylvia's skills are useful?  he   was sure that it is not. The reason is that Leolde  was also fond of Sylvia.

(Oh, I see. I don't hate Sylvia. She's one of the most important people in my life.)

 

 After being convinced as if his heart was stuck, he looked at Sylvia with a calm expression on his face.

Your Highness is very important to me. I don't want to lose you.

 Sylvia fainted in agony as Leolde smiled calmly as if the cloudy sky had cleared and said Sylvia was an important person to him .

(What? I didn't mishear    him , did I ?  He definitely said that I was important to him!)

 

 Sylvia thinks that this is a good  thing , but she shouldn't panic. She had already made a mistake once.  she  need to answer calmly and carefully here.

 Sir Leolde. What does it mean that ......?"

"I want to protect my loved ones. That's what it means."

"Could it be ......  in that way? "

"Hmmm?"

 At this point, Leolde . also realized what he was saying. It was only when Sylvia pointed it out to him that he realized that he had said something  strange , and he began to panic, wondering how to get out of this situation.

" It means someone who is as important to you as your people and your family. ......"

 

As he was about to say this, Leolde  realized that he had been wrong. He remembered Sylvia's words from earlier and turned his head.

(Hmm? Wait. Why did Sylvia ask about  love there? Is it possible that she likes me? Huh? Not as a toy, but as a man? No way . ......)

Leold'e s eyes glancing at her face with a  Sylvia staring at Leolde . Her face uplifted and moistened.

(...!)

 Even the quirky Leolde  realized that Sylvia liked  him . . Once  he was aware of it,  he can't help but be conscious of it.
