Natural course of events

Alek-sama's lecture appears to have ended.
Everyone seems more damaged by it than when brother blown them away some time ago.
Here and there are people wiggling on the floor.
While brother focused on physical aspect, Alek-sama provided mental training.

I and Allen-kun were expecting to go back once we've said our goodbyes to Alek-sama.
After saying them, I need to return to the mansion and confirm what happened with brother and Sana.

"Alek-sama, I am sorry for today's disturbance."

I lowered my head to Alek-sama and to the knights who were straightening their backs.
Whatever my reason may have been, it's my responsibility as the person behind the trouble.

"No, Lillinsama, you don't need to apologize. The reason behind such a big uproar… was that those guys were so excited that the situation changed. More than anything, I would like to thank you. Lately, captain has been absentminded. He'll get better with this. In case he's rejected by Sana, the order will hold a party to sympathize with him."

Alek-sama said that with a refreshing laugh.
To Alek-sama's words, other members also voiced their approval.

'I enthusiastically welcome sympathy party!'
'Sansama! I am far gentler than captain.'
'Captain, get rejected!'

Yup, they seem to have particularly focused on the sympathy party.
As expected, their attitude remains the same.

"Yeah, I'm counting on you if that time comes. But, I'm sure there'll be no need to hold it."

After being slightly surprised by my words, Alek-sama gently smiled.

"… It seems captain's feelings will be reciprocated. Then, I have to work harder than ever."

Now then, shall we smoothly go back together?
When I and Allen-kun tried leaving the training area, a black shadow descended in front of us.
At its sudden appearance, Allen-kun moved in front of me.

"Oops, please don't attack me. Excuse me for surprising you. I'm sorry… Oh, it's really Lillinsama. Hmm hmm, why are you here…"

Based on the voice, the identity of the black shadow appears to be Hanzou-san, whom I haven't seen in a while.

"Hanzou-san, it's been a long time."

"Ah, aah, it's been a long time. By the way, why are you in the castle? I thought you were avoiding this place, Lillinsama. W, well, it's no problem!"

Hanzou-san said so while trembling.
Was it exposed that you were being avoided?

"The problem was… well, it seems to have been resolved. It's alright, it was just my family's problem. Also, please don't mind us, we're returning to my mansion now."

Having said so, I tried stepping forward.
However, Hanzou-san spread his arms to stop me.

"Ara, Hanzou-san… Could you please move?"

"P, please wait a moment… Ugh, don't look at me with such eyes~. R, really, just wait for a while! I beg you, Lillinsama!"

Finally, Hanzou-san resorted to his forte, the dogeza.
This… What if I just ignore it and pass him?
The longer I stay here, the higher the danger.
Or so I thought, but it seems the crisis has already drawn near.

"Lillinsama. Right now, Prince Leon and Princess Sumire are having their every day tea party. That's why, participate by all means…"

"She won't do it!"

Allen-kun refused in my stead.
Well, yeah, it's impossible.

"The, then, just a bit, really just show your face a little…"

"I will not!!" "She will not!!"

"I thought so~. Princess will lose her temper. Ah, that's a problem~."

Hanzou-san may be saying so, but I don't think I have an obligation to keep her company.
Alright, let's return.

"Allen, let's go."

"Yes, Lillinsama."

We decided to leave Hanzou-san behind.
If we stay here any longer, they really may show up, prince and princess.

After leaving the training area, on our way to the castle's gates we ran into something that wasn't there when we passed by before.
… Why, has this courtyard suddenly become the tea party's venue?
It's a bit far… but it's perfectly prepared.
When was such a thing decided?

"Lillinsama… What shall we do?"

Allen-kun asked in an exasperated voice.
What to do… What should I do?

"Let's see… We won't reach the gates unless we go through there. But if we do… we'll be caught."

When I and Allen-kun stopped to discuss, from behind us I heard a voice.

"Oh, weren't you going home? … Ah, so that's the cause. Hmm, then how about there. Over there is an exit that isn't used much, why don't you use it?"

"Is, is that true? Please show us by all means if there's something so convenient!"

With Alek-sama's guidance we avoided courtyard, which is the tea party’s venue, and headed to another exit.
