Night. Lieselotte was reading before going to sleep.

"I didn't think there was such a book on the market ...... Sam might faint if he saw it."

The book in her hands is a story that is quietly popular among the women of King's Landing and some men.

The vivacious Lise is not much of a reader, but Marie, the maid, says, "I've found something amazing! He delivered it to me with a snort.

I was interested in reading it because Marie, who loves the stage, praised it highly,

"......What is this, the lustful life of Duke Günther Ignatz and Samuel Scheidt, court wizard?"

I read the book and found it to be exactly as the title says.

I don't know who writes such books, but there are a few things I didn't like.

The most important one is that Lise is sleeping with Sam by Günther, and in the end she congratulates him instead of stepping down because she thinks they are a good match.

"No. Absolutely not."

I'm sure Günther would be delighted to read this.

No, I suspect that Günther might be the author of this book.

It hurts my head to think that such a book is popular in King's Landing, albeit secretly.

"I don't suppose you've read it, Alicia, have you?"

I would be a bit shocked if my sister, who loves to read, has read this book.

I don't want to have to tell her that the book exists if I try to confirm it.

As Lise sighs, there is an unexpected knock at the door of her room.

"Lise, may I have a word with you?"

"Father? Of course, come in."

He hides the radical book under his pillow and stretches out on the bed to greet his father.

"I'm sorry you're resting. Oh, where's Sam?"

"He's with Hualien and Mizuki."

"- You mean both of you at the same time?"

Liese sighs as her father's eyes widen and he imagines all kinds of crazy things.

"...... father, that's a bit vulgar. We are training for the night. Of course, it's about combat."

"Yes, that's right. I thought they were, you know, engaged, like you, Sam."

"Yes, we are engaged, but I think it will take a little more time for Sam and I to become man and wife."

"Well, that's a relief."

Lise tilted her head and wondered what her father was doing here.

If he had come all the way to his daughter's room to talk to her about such a trivial matter, he would have to report it to her.

"Father, you wanted to talk to me about something, didn't you?"

Oh, yes, that's right. Alicia has received a formal offer of engagement from the Robert family."

"Jim Robert, I believe. I didn't have much contact with him, but I know he is crazy about Alicia. How can I help you with that?"

I thought he had come to inform me of my sister's good fortune, but my father's expression was somewhat gloomy.

It was not the face of a man who had come to announce a happy event.

(Oh, I see.)

Lise nodded her head as if she had an idea from her father's complexion.

"But, Alicia," she said, "I don't know..."

"You're not keen on it, are you?"

Father looked at Lise with surprise.

"--How did you know?"

"She's my sister, I know it when I see it. Alicia likes Sam, doesn't she?"

Looking at my sister these days, I knew immediately who she had feelings for.

"Mm-hmm, as a matter of fact, I do. Jim seems to be the type of guy who doesn't listen to me and talks about himself a lot.

"That sounds like the type of person Alicia would have a hard time with."

That's right. Sam, on the other hand, listens well and seems to really enjoy our time together. Recently, he has been spending more and more time with her, taking care of her dragon cubs and so on, and he has found himself falling in love with her."

"Hmm. I thought so. Alicia's personality would be a good match for Sam.

Alicia seemed to enjoy taking care of the baby dinosaurs.

Perhaps it was simply the fact that she could talk to the dragons in the story, but I know that Sam was always next to her when her sister's smile was bright.

Not wanting to disturb her, she did not speak to her when she saw her.

"But yes. But you confided in your father. It must have taken courage."

"So, you know. Alicia wanted to apologize to you in person, but, uh, you know, I stopped her. I'm sorry."

Liese was surprised at her father's sudden apology.

"Why should Alicia and your father apologize to me?"

"...... that's what it is."

"Perhaps you don't think I would be angry with or against Alicia?"

"You don't?"

"No, I won't do that. It's true that I'm a bit jealous, but I don't want Sam all to myself.

"Really? I thought..."

"If I had intended to do so, Karen, Mizuki, and even Stella-sama would have refused. If it was Sam's character, he would have refused if I had said I didn't want to do it.

"But you didn't."

Lise understands that Sam cares about her very much.

She is grateful for that feeling, and Lise loves Sam as much as he loves her.

If Lizeth had really said that she wants Sam exclusively and does not need any other woman, Sam would have done exactly what she said.

But Liese doesn't want that.

"Yes, Sam is lonely and I don't think I can support him by myself. So I would be very happy if Alicia would support Sam with me.
