"I mean, I'm sure you guys would be careful not to bring it up, but he was here, wasn't he?"

"--oh, father, that's--"

Sam felt the air tighten, the relaxation caused by Rachel's presence.

No one, not even Rachel, had mentioned Nancy out of concern for Delight, but apparently she had noticed.

"No, it's okay. No, it's okay. I'm not going to see her either. It's just that I've fallen out of favor in a relationship that I thought was going well for a long time. I don't care that you left. But I can't forgive you for leaving Fran. Until Fran forgives him, I'm not going to have anything to do with him.

Delight spat this out with a bitter look on his face, but to Sam, it looked somewhat sad.

"I don't think I have a mother, so there is no reconciliation."

Fran made her rejection clear.

For a woman who had respected and supported her father, a mother who gave up on her the moment she lost her position was not a very forgivable person.

As a result, Nancy's behavior shocked Delight and may have been the cause of his drinking.

She cannot forgive him because she is related to him by blood.

Her mother came back to her as soon as Delight recovered and became a court wizard again. Fran's anger is understandable.

"I see. "Well, that's good. I'm surprised she left so quietly. I don't miss him, but he came to my house because he was in a tight spot, right?"

"Um, Mr. Delight. Miss Rachel sent me away."

"Is that so?"

Sam gives a brief recap, and Delight thanks Rachel, who still has her arms around him, looking happy as ever.

"I'm sorry, Miss Rachel. I'm sorry for getting you involved in my family's problems. And thank you. Sam, Lise, and Stella, I'm sorry too.

"Oh, no, Mr. Delight! Please don't be a stranger! A wife would do anything for her husband, no, for her family."

"......, let's leave it at that."

"Don't leave me here!"

"What the hell am I supposed to do, I... My head hurts."

"Why don't you just give up?"

"Sam, come on, man, it's not personal."

(To be honest, I don't think there's anything you can do to stop Lady Rachel. (Honestly, I don't think there's anything we can do to stop Rachel...I just wonder what Clyde's father-in-law will make of it. The biggest problem will be Queen Cordelia the Second.)

To be honest, I do not have good feelings toward the second queen Cordelia.

It is difficult for me to have a good impression of her since she spoke to me one-sidedly from above when I met her for the first time.

At that time, I thought that we would never get involved in the future, but I never expected that Rachel would fall in love with Delight, and that we would be involved in such a situation.

(But then again, Cedric-sama and Rachel-sama are siblings who fall in love in a troublesome way .........)

I have heard that royal marriages are not romantic.

Or I have heard that they are made to meet each other from childhood and be close to each other so that they will eventually become husband and wife.

Since many people try to take advantage of marriages with royalty, it is best to have children from nobles with whom you have a friendly relationship, if possible.

However, we can rest assured that neither Louise nor Delight are the kind of people who would try to take advantage of the royal family.

There are other concerns, but I guess it is up to them to decide what will happen.

"Hey."

While I was wondering what to do, Hualien, who was supposed to be sleeping in the carriage, comes to me.

"What's wrong?"

"I've got a letter from the royal family."

"What? From the royal family, why?

"Old Delight told me to give it to you."

"Well, what do you mean?"

"I don't know. I was sleeping in the carriage when a knock on the door woke me up and told me to give the letter to the old Delight."

(Hualien said she was awakened by a knock at ...... even though she's normally as alert and sensitive to signs of life as a cat?)

Perhaps Sam's agitation was felt, Hualien continued to speak.

"He looked like a normal person, but he was so normal that it was scary. No sign, no smell, it was a little scary."

"Well, maybe, just maybe. --Geez."

Delight, who had received the letter from Hualien, sounded strange as if he had some idea what was going on.

"His Majesty wants you to come to the palace tomorrow.

"No way."

"That's the thing. As one might expect given Lady Rachel's position, it seems that ...... has been following her. It seems that everything that happens on our side is being reported."

"...... really existed, didn't it?"

Sam has never seen one in person, but he says there are shadowy beings who serve as the hands and feet of the royal family and to whom he owes complete allegiance.

Most of their activities are information gathering, but sometimes they do things that cannot be revealed.

The reason Clyde was able to immediately condemn the nobleman who had betrayed his country when he was released from the guardianship of the Lepsi tombs was because the shadows had gathered information in advance.

(There is no sign of him. I feel no magic. But there is a possibility nearby. I'm afraid... I'm afraid...)

I search the area, but there is no sign of anyone.

Or there could be a nearby that Sam can't find.

(Let's not do this. (Let's not. We'll lose if we worry about it.)

Sam decides to forget about the .

The bigger problem is that Delight has been summoned to the royal palace.

"It says here that Sam should come too."

"Me too? I'm involved again!"

I won't let you get away with this!

"Oh, give me a break!"

Sam is about to cry because the Cedric case is still unresolved and he has a feeling that things are about to get even worse for Rachel.

Delight is also trying not to let Sam go.

And Rachel, on the other hand..,

"Well, Father, you have blessed me and Mr. Delight!"

He was happy to say that his head was full of flowers.

I wonder where the character who had been harassing my sister for years had gone.

"Rachel, I'm so happy for you!"

"Yes, sister! I will be happy!

"No, sir, I'm sure that's not true."

Stella congratulates her sister, and Lise says it's not going to be like that.

Hualien seemed to be unsure of what was going on, but she didn't seem to mind, drinking Sam's tea and taking it easy.

(I wondered what would happen at one point, but it didn't ...... somehow, did it? The biggest concern is how Fran feels about Rachel, right?)

The issues may be numerous, but Sam was concerned about Fran's feelings about possibly having a younger mother-in-law, but didn't know how to visit her.

(I'll leave it to Lise-sama later.)

Thinking that it would be easier to talk to other women, he decides to ask Lise to help him.

Lise and Fran have known each other since childhood and are best friends. Fran will be able to talk to her without hesitation.

(I'm not throwing this all in your face. (I'm not throwing this in your face by any means...)
