Chapter 79 – Roy and Fiiru
Not edited
In the Orstollian royal palace stood a room for the royal husband and wife .
Because there was only one entrance and exit, and many smaller partitioned rooms lay inside it, the set-up was like a house within the castle .
In one of those smaller rooms sat a long table, large enough to sit twenty people, but in constrast there were only two chairs .
At one end of the table sat a girl with her head down, polishing something in her hands .
It was a small and plain, white porcelain cup . The cup was well-made, drawing smooth and beautiful contours in her hand .
Holding it carefully in her hands, she was using a clean white cloth to carefully polish away any possible blemishes .
“Fiiru-sama, High Majesty Roy will be here soon . ”
The girl raised her head at Lynette’s words .
Her lovely golden hair shifted as she did, and her beautiful blue eyes gazed the maid’s way .
So beautiful was the girl that even Lynette who had grown up with her found herself sighing .
Her eyes, her nose, her mouth… Everything part that composed her face was delicate and beautifully arrange . But instead of the cold beauty one would expect from a doll, her eyes turned down in a way that exuded a kind and gentle impression .
Although she was beautiful enough to outshine even other princesses famed for their beauty, she shared the child-like atmosphere that her older sister had, which attracted men all the more .

It was little wonder that the royalty in Déman’s vicinity had been obsessed with her .
Fiiru met Lynette’s gaze and gave a nod .
“I know . Lynette, could you pour some tea for His Majesty and I?”
“Yes . In the same cup as always?”
“Yes, please . ”
Fiiru’s voice was a little frail, but also clear and gentle .

Upon hearing Fiiru’s request, Lynette carefully poured tea into the polished cup .
Fiiru simply watched the tea pour in .
Normally you would heat the tea cup in advance, but because of Fiiru’s unwillingness to part with it Lynette had chosen a tea that was delicious lukewarm .
Light-brown tea layered over the white of the porcelain .
After that, Lynette moved to the other side of the table and placed a warmed cup down in front of the King’s seat, this time pouring hot tea .
“Thank you, Lynette,” thanked Fiiru with a smile .

It wasn’t long before they heard footsteps coming down the whole .
Brisk footsteps that seemed hurried as usual .
The knight from the 1st Division who had been stationed in front of the door now received a signal from another knight outside . With that, he opened the door .
“Sorry for keeping you waiting . ”
Beyond the door came an apology, and a man with it .
A handsome black-haired man, with blue-grey eyes and a cleverness to his face .
It was Roy, the king of this nation .
