Chapter Index

    The reason why Deltan did not accurately recognize his relationship with Agnes.

    If you think about it, there were many things.

    First of all, his relationship with Agnes was too familiar, and Deltan did not deeply feel the need for a separate proposal or marriage as they were already living together and were together all day.

    Of course, if it were like peacetime, we would have thought of such a way to advance the relationship before we knew it. But isn’t this peacetime?

    Deltan humbly admitted.

    ‘There was a rush.’

    The accident was concentrated in Mahwah.

    Because the deadline was getting closer and closer, I was preoccupied all day thinking, ‘How should I handle that?’

    It’s a fatal mistake. But it is not too late, so it is not a failure.

    Now that the problem has been discovered, all that remains is to solve it.

    Deltan began to worry about a ‘proposal’, something he never imagined would happen in his life.

    “Did you have a good trip?”

    In the hall of the Count’s mansion, Agnes was there to meet us.

    Deltan had a strange feeling when he saw her wearing comfortable clothes with her hair tied back.

    Could it be that they are already in a common-law relationship? What should I do now to do something so strange?

    I couldn’t help but think of a momentary worry.

    “How is your Majesty?”

    “… Same as usual. It’s frivolous.”

    “I have to go say hello once.”

    “You?”

    “Yes, we decided to be friends.”

    Come to think of it, the emperor and Agnes got along quite well at the last banquet.

    Deltan remembered something he had forgotten.

    But I didn’t like it for no reason.

    The Deltan’s frown frowned slightly, and Agnes widened her eyes at the sight before bursting into laughter.

    “What is it? Are you jealous?”

    “No.”

    “You’re cute.”

    Agnes giggled and hugged Deltan’s waist.

    He said, patting his butt.

    “Friend. friend. How can I have such a relationship with my friend’s father… .”

    Agnes stopped speaking.

    Deltan also kept his mouth shut.

    It was clear that he and Agnes had the same person in mind at the same time without having to say it out loud.

    “… Anyway, no.”

    “Uh, I know.”

    The atmosphere became a little awkward.

    Deltan looked away for no reason and said.

    “… Let’s eat.”

    “Yes.”

    In any case, Elina’s penetration ability was something that had no choice but to be acknowledged.

    *

    A meal followed and it was evening that night.

    It was still too early to fall asleep, and Deltan came into the study and Agnes was next to him.

    Deltan’s gaze landed on the book Agnes was holding.

    “… What is it?”

    “Let me read a book too.”

    “I’m not asking that.”

    Why are you bringing dirty talk?

    Agnes said as she narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

    “Now that I’ve been caught, what’s there to worry about? I also want to enjoy my hobby comfortably now.”

    “Such a hobby… .”

    “Respect. I understand. Be considerate. It’s forcing it.”

    Agnes was confident.

    The Delta people were all dumbfounded.

    I tried to say something, but I was so embarrassed that no words came out.

    Meanwhile, Agnes sat down on the sofa in the middle of the study.

    “What are you doing if you’re not coming?”

    Deltan gave up on saying anything more.

    I sighed and sat down next to Agnes, and at that moment Agnes laid her head on Deltan’s thigh.

    “You can read a book better if you lie down.”

    “Not good for health.”

    “Is your health about to get worse?”

    As time goes on, the number of replies increases.

    No, was the verbal response harsh from the beginning?

    Anyway, it’s something that makes me sigh. Deltan snapped his fingers and summoned a book from the library into his hand.

    It was a book with no title written on the cover.

    “What are you reading?”

    “Research books.”

    It was a romance novel.

    I was planning to find out how to propose to him.

    You might ask how to use a romance novel as a teaching material, but if there was such a person, Deltan would just snort and answer.

    ‘Commercial novels were created for the vicarious satisfaction of the public.’

    It is a common people’s book called a popular novel, but I have heard that this novel is quite famous even among noble daughters.

    In other words, the proposal in this novel is one that any woman in her prime, regardless of social class, can quite sympathize with, or is the kind that fuels delusions.

    A delusion that cannot be realized by the public.

    But the name Deltan Hebron was the name of a man who had the ability to make most of those delusions a reality.

    Deltan soon began to fall in love with reading.

    Meanwhile, there was one thing that bothered me.

    『A female knight becomes the bride of a wild troll.』

    What on earth are you reading? This woman.

    *

    In conclusion, it was like that.

    Romance novels were okay. Just from the perspective of killing time.

    Deltan could not sympathize with the main character’s emotions in the novel, the male protagonist who kneels down to be her footsweeper, and all other elements.

    Would you understand if I told you that the most enjoyable part to read was the scene where the female protagonist engages in a sword fight with the villainess?

    Delta people, who had never been exposed to this type of culture, finally realized it.

    ‘It’s fun to break everything and explode.’

    He says he has a taste for blockbusters that doesn’t deviate too much from the tastes of typical men.

    “I have read it all.”

    Agnes closed the book. It was a book about the female knight and troll, and as she closed the book, Agnes had an expression of relief on her face.

    Deltan thought.

    ‘Would this woman like the proposal in the novel?’

    It was a cringy proposal.

    The male protagonist makes a public confession in front of a large number of people, raising the lights of the entire system for the protagonist.

    The comment is also absurd.

    『Be the master of your life. I want to live as your faithful servant.』

    ‘… Damn.’

    Deltan felt goosebumps creeping out.

    Is it possible for there to be another confession that feels so emotional?

    Deltan was a person who would rather commit suicide than make such a confession.

    Even if that wasn’t the case, it was like that.

    Think about the character of Agnes Levadeine. What kind of person would enjoy such a confession?

    no. She is a woman who gets bored quickly even when there are a few people nearby.

    It’s not that I have an aversion to receiving attention, but considering that I don’t feel any other value in their gaze, there’s no point in making a public confession.

    So what about the message?

    ‘You’ll laugh. That’s a lot too.’

    In fact, in terms of taste, it was a line that Agnes would quite like.

    Deltan sometimes felt like she was her pet dog. But whether she will be impressed when you seriously say those words out loud is another matter.

    If you do it, make it perfect and special.

    For Delta people who want to be the best at everything, that comment was not a good choice.

    “Why are you worrying so much?”

    Agnes asked.

    Deltan answered.

    “There is something to worry about in the research book.”

    It’s not a lie. It was a study on proposals.

    “Is this a difficult story?”

    “Uh, so much so that you don’t understand.”

    “Then I won’t listen.”

    “So.”

    Agnes stretched.

    Then, he put his arm on Deltan’s thigh and looked up at him, resting his chin on his chin.

    There was something about the posture and composition that strangely made my heart flutter.

    Anyway, the face is really pretty.

    “I also came across an interesting topic.”

    “From that firewood?”

    “Yes, it seems that the more proud a female knight is, the more likely she is to be female. Actually, if you think about it, it’s true, right? Being a driver is a job that requires training your body through exercise and releasing energy by sweating. Would such people be satisfied with ordinary sex?”

    “… .”

    “You won’t have a strong sex drive either. You might be longing for a beast-like partner who can solve all of that. But such opponents are rare. The more you do this, the more the dark desire grows inside you, and when the moment to unleash it finally comes, you are willing to accept it even if the other person is a subhuman beast. Um, Professor Agnes’s Introduction to Female Studies. Turn this into a thesis right away… .”

    “Up to there.”

    Jaw, the Deltan covered Agnes’ mouth.

    Agnes complained, saying ‘Eup, eup!’, but the Deltan had no intention of letting her go.

    “Please, please, please, can you stop reading books like this? I would rather read other books that are good for my emotions.”

    Agnes narrowed her eyes as if she was not amused.

    Deltan sighed.

    ‘this… .’

    Now that I think about it, I think it’s bad for prenatal education.

    I think I should burn all the popular novels I have at home.

    *

    In the end, the concerns about a plausible proposal were not properly resolved.

    To put it bluntly, the problem was Agnes’ unpredictable and unpredictable personality.

    Perhaps he was so bored, Agnes would make jokes whenever he got the chance, and for that reason, Deltan could hardly bring up the issue of ‘proposal romance’ to Agnes.

    That’s the case if you just look at what’s happened so far.

    “Don’t you have any romance?”

    “Suddenly?”

    “I’m just curious. I don’t think there’s anything in particular that you want from me.”

    “Please dress as a woman.”

    “Turn off.”

    When I asked him about his dream, he asked me to dress up as a woman.

    “… Is there anything you really want?”

    “Can I try putting a carrot up my nostril?”

    Don’t you say things like that during meals?

    There were countless more besides that.

    The Deltans gave up their understanding of the woman named Agnes Levadeine.

    That thought even occurred to me.

    ‘It’s the devil.’

    The level of mental attack was indescribable.

    A mind that has never been shaken by any demon goes into confusion just by talking to her, so how can one say that she is not a demon?

    Of course, there were angelic moments.

    ‘Sleep well.’

    The count’s bedroom late at night.

    Agnes was fast asleep in Deltan’s arms.

    Deltan looked at the scene in confusion.

    There was hair around her mouth, so I removed it and covered her with a blanket all the way to her neck as she curled up.

    Then, when he made a ‘mmmm’ sound in his sleep, he patted his back.

    What Deltan thought of while unconsciously performing such actions was nothing else.

    ‘This woman… .’

    What kind of person is this?

    It’s about thinking about the essence of who she is.

    ‘It’s nasty.’

    His personality is nasty.

    He is full of fun and is rarely serious about anything. Sometimes he says things that make me angry, but when he does that, he notices me like a ghost and acts cute, so I feel embarrassed about getting angry.

    So what are your tastes? What does she like?

    There was no need to worry, Delta knew quite a lot in that regard.

    ‘There is no food to cover.’

    I eat anything well. He appears to not understand the concept of picky eating, to the point where he criticizes him for not eating pickles.

    ‘I don’t like flashy clothes.’

    In his own words, there is no need to overdress because his appearance shines even if it is not flashy.

    It wasn’t particularly wrong.

    ‘What I like is… .’

    Deltan’s movements stopped.

    His eyes stare at Agnes’ sleeping face for a long time.

    ‘… it’s me.’

    Even though I had answered that question myself, I was so embarrassed that there was nothing I could do.

    Yes, Agnes Levadein’s favorite was Hebron, the Delta.

    She was a person who did not hide such expressions at all.

    So in the end, there was a conclusion that came to mind.

    ‘My sincerity.’

    Isn’t that what’s important to her?

    Deltan closed his mouth, letting out indescribable shame and embarrassment at the thought that came to his mind.
