==============

I finished my ablutions with a pious heart.

And I even applied a slippery balm to my warm skin.

The maids wore carefully washed red robes. And she completed thorough preparations by spraying perfume made from purified sweet jasmine honey all over her body.

This should be enough.

The ‘strange smell’ that had been picked up by the fairy’s sensitive sense of smell would have disappeared without a trace.

“Your Majesty is urgently looking for you. It is said to be a dinner party for a delegation from the Holy Imperial Kingdom.”

“Ugh… !”

Ludmilla, who wanted to meet Edanant with a heart as trembling as a reed, was caught by her ankles at a banquet welcoming the delegation of the Holy Empire.

It is a banquet attended by the Holy Emperor Boern and the saints-to-be.

Therefore, it was natural that the red dragon of the empire would attend to assist the emperor.

Although everything was prepared for Edanant, it was in vain.

Ludmilla sighed in sorrow and answered the maid that she would attend the dinner party.

“It’s been a really long time. Princess Ludmilla.”

“I am grateful that you remember me.”

Ludmilla, who attended the dinner party, shook hands with the Holy Emperor who entered with the would-be saints.

A dark face typical of southerners.

And a benevolent smile that seems to prove that he is the representative of the One God.

Ludmilla, facing the crowd, politely bowed and showed a flawless appearance. Because the ruler of the Holy Empire was of the same rank as the emperor of the empire, he had to be even more careful and careful about his words and actions.

“A dinner party with a red dragon and a white dragon… Hehe, it reminds me of the old days.”

“I saw it at the summit between the empire and the Holy Empire last year.”

Boern said with a hearty laugh.

Then Zeveline, who was watching from the side, took a step forward and opened her mouth.

“… … .”

“… … .”

A red dragon guarding the emperor.

A white dragon that adds to the success.

Ludmilla and Zebeline met at a dinner party between the Empire and the Holy Empire.

The atmosphere of the dinner party seemed to radiate a dazzling radiance due to the beautiful appearances of the princess and the saint. However, the bloody confrontation between Ludmilla and Zebeline, who glared at each other and openly showed hostility, made the atmosphere of the dinner party heavy.

“Edanant… It looks like Confucius was unable to attend.”

“It is said to be a little late.”

Jeveline opened her mouth while taking a quick look around.

Then Ludmilla twitched the corners of her mouth, clearly showing her displeasure.

“Foot.”

“… … ?”

While the confrontation continued,

Surprisingly, it was Ludmila who backed away first.

It was an unusual case for Ludmilla, who boasted fierce stubbornness and pride, to back down first. Zeveline’s eyes widened at the sight of Ludmilla retreating with a leisurely sneer.

“Lu, Her Highness Ludmilla… ! It’s an honor to meet you.”

“May the Earthmother’s blessings be with the Baltaria Empire!”

Ludmilla, who spent time with the Holy Emperor and Jebelin, exchanged greetings with the would-be saints of the Holy Imperial Kingdom who followed her like chicks.

Eyes shining with longing.

A burdensome smile full of admiration and respect.

In direct contrast to Jebeline, who committed all kinds of rudeness, the juniors of the Holy Empire showed a friendly attitude toward Ludmilla. Like crazy fans attending a handshake event for a famous celebrity, the ladies-to-be were cheering and scrambling to talk to Ludmila.

“The red dragon that protects the Baltarian Empire… ! You are indeed as beautiful as people say! He is strong and dignified, as befits the powerhouse of the Seven Rivers of the Nation, and he also has a beautiful figure… !”

“Keuhum! That’s too much praise.”

Ludmilla, who felt uncomfortable with the would-be saints dressed in pure white robes like her lifelong nemesis, Zebeline, felt her heart lift when she heard a single compliment: ‘You’re beautiful!’

Hmm.

You really have eyes to see.

Unlike some arrogant first saints, she seemed to know manners.

Even though you have a senior with a retarded personality, you only choose to say the right things.

Ludmilla shrugged her shoulders and showed an uplifted response to the sincere praises of the would-be saints. Jeveline, who was watching this from afar, snorted.

“Oh, even if I ask you to shake my hand… Can I?”

“Of course.”

The girl-to-be with cute freckles stretched out her hand and asked in a cautious voice.

Seeing the would-be saint shrinking from tension, Ludmilla smiled slightly and allowed her to shake her hand.

“Me too!”

“I will consider it a lifelong honor!”

Ludmilla’s beautiful and dignified appearance was enough to attract young girls. Ludmilla expressed her confusion at the onslaught of prospective saints who approached her with a look of admiration.

hmm.

Is this okay?

I can’t believe such an uproar was happening at a dinner party between the Empire and the Holy Imperial Kingdom.

“Sorry. I’m a little late for some reason.”

“E, edanant… !”

Since the dinner party will be disrupted, I think we should just disperse the brides-to-be.

When Ludmila tried to back away,

A man with gray hair arrived at the banquet hall where the dinner party was being held with an urgent voice. Next, a girl with light green hair came up in a huff to keep up.

Edanant and Rue.

A close friend of the Hohenberg family has appeared.

The sudden appearance of the main character of the oracle predicted by the Earth Mother and the cute mascot of the saint’s party attracted all the attention of the would-be saints.

“, holy sword user!”

“I guess he’s a real oracle! Oh, he’s so handsome… !”

Ludmilla soon escaped the gaze of the would-be saints who felt burdensome.

instead,

All eyes were on Edanant.

“Oh my! Your cheeks are really soft! It’s the real Ruinong I’ve only heard about through rumors!”

“If you want to hug yourself, even a thick candy… Hehehe!”

As if treating a cute doll, the ladies-to-be extended their arms without hesitation, hugging and stroking Lue. Lue, startled by the aggressive hand-to-hand attack, screamed and asked for help.

But Edanant was also in trouble.

This was because, from the first meeting, I was bombarded with questions from would-be saints who asked me about my ideal type.

“Ho, what is your ideal type?”

“How on earth did you get chosen by the Holy Sword? Please let us know too!”

difficult.

How can a feast of innocent questions be this painful?

The saints-to-be of the Holy Empire came closer, as if to be gently held in their arms. As the distance between the prospective saints gradually narrowed, Ludmilla’s eyes began to turn fierce.

ideal type.

What should I answer?

Edanant glanced sideways at Ludmilla, who was staring at him sharply, and finally opened his mouth.

“A jealous woman is my ideal type. I like women who sometimes embarrass me with their stubborn nature, but later admit their mistakes and apologize honestly.”

“… Yes?”

“Until now, I didn’t have much interest in romantic relationships with the opposite sex… It happened after last night.”

“Is that so?”

In response to Edanant’s rapid-fire, unstoppable response, the prospective saints tilted their heads and expressed doubts. This is because the answer was too vague to be considered an answer to the question of my ideal type.

What do you mean?

All handsome men are weirdos… .

The new warrior of the Holy Empire has very unique tastes.

“Yes, I am unusual.”

Edanant gazed at Ludmilla with a meaningful smile.

Then, Ludmilla’s eyes met and she burst into laughter, trying hard to hide her flushed face. Fortunately, it seemed like jealousy was safely avoided with an honest answer.

* * *

A woman’s intuition is always sensitive.

Especially when it comes to suspicions related to a man’s cheating, women’s intuition becomes even more sensitive.

It’s definitely true.

Something happened between the two last night.

Jeveline, who saw through Edanant and Ludmilla’s strange atmosphere with her unique sharp intuition, took a long stride and appeared to have become the embodiment of jealousy.

“What happened last night?”

“No, nothing happened.”

Edenant, who was feeding cake to Lue, who was finally released by the prospective saints, shrugged his shoulders in response to Jebeline’s question, which was clearly jealous.

Then he handed me a fork with a cake in it.

It is an irresistible temptation.

Zeveline was troubled as she looked at Edanant’s outstretched fork. But eventually he stuck his head out and took the cake on his fork and ate it.

“Wow, it’s delicious.”

“As expected, the imperial chefs seem to be very skilled.”

Edanant smiled slightly.

Then, Zebeline slowly turned her head to the side while nibbling on the cake.

“But there are many eyes… Isn’t that too bold?”

“Didn’t you become a warrior of the Holy Empire thanks to the benevolent oracle given by the Earth Mother? Even if you end up dating a beautiful saint, everyone will humbly forgive you.”

Is it because I took a great step in my love life that started with my first kiss?

I became more proficient.

And with her ever more eloquent speaking skills, she charmed the first saint.

As Edanant whispered with a wonderful smile, Zeveline even forgot to question her relationship with Ludmilla and pursed her lips and blushed.
