It was so unexpected that I fell off the saddle, making me clutch his arm and lean on him.

Ah, I don’t like this. I’m worried about being a chick.

There was a commotion around us. I laughed obliviously, pushing out the annoying murmurs.

 

“Hey, don’t fight.”

 

“What?”

 

“Don’t get mad at them. Your handsome face will get ruined.”

Izek stared at me silently for a moment.

 

Like Satan’s incarnation, his glaring eyes were very fierce. He growled when I wriggled my body in preparation for being thrown away.

 

“I’m not mad, damn it. Ellen. Am I mad?”

 

“That’s not so.”

 

Ellenia, who answered immediately, stared at me. What kind of siblings were they? This was absurd, but of course, I didn’t mention it and smiled widely. When my feet touched the flat grass, I felt alive.

 

“Thank you for taking me. I won’t forget today.”

 

“…… ”

 

“I’ll ride alone too. Is that alright?”

 

“……do as you please.”

 

It was said without sincerity, but still a reply. It was pretty hard to be a fan. Freya, who looked at me with interested eyes, smiled softly.

 

“Come over here and sit down, my lady. Everyone is waiting.”

Thank you for those empty words.

 

As I approached the table obediently and sat down, I saw that the handle of the teacup was decorated in the shape of a turtle with jeweled eyeballs.

 

Today sure was a tough day.

 

“E-Ellen…”

 

“I’m sorry to have shown you something ugly. He’s always like this, so don’t worry.” Ellenia, who spat out in a businesslike tone, pushed a plate containing finger food toward me.

 

That was good enough, but why was there a turtle decoration on the plate too?!

 

I drank tea as much as I could, trying not to look at the decorations.

 

Freya, sitting next to me, murmured anxiously,”Is it okay if I leave him like that?”

 

“Leave him alone.”

 

Ellenia was heartless. Before I knew it, my husband was dragging his horse away.

 

I glanced at the sight of the men approaching him as if they had been waiting, when someone asked me, “Are you feeling well?”
