“Douglas, it’s urgent, but it’s important work. Are you free?”
ㅤ
“I’m not exactly free, but I’ll make time. It’s important work, right?”
ㅤ
“Yes, so I’ll ask you to take care of it.”
ㅤ
Entering one of the several conference rooms in the office, I introduce Prince Ishra to Douglas.
Speaking of which, I remembered that I hadn’t introduced Chris and Kyle either.
ㅤ
Once everyone is in the conference room, I introduce the three.
ㅤ
“Prince Ishra, this is Douglas・Taylor, who will be in charge of future administrative procedures.
He is my consort candidate, my fiancé.”
ㅤ
“I am Ishra. Thank you.”
ㅤ
“Prince Ishra, I’m Douglas.
I’m currently working in the office, but I plan to become the consort when Sofia-sama becomes queen.”
ㅤ
For now, Douglas will handle the alliance procedures later on.
The two firmly shake hands when they are introduced first.
I haven’t explained the alliance to Douglas yet,
But I did tell him that the prince of Rujail and Emillia are planning to get engaged.
ㅤ
“Douglas, Prince Ishra has become a son-in-law.
With that, we will form an alliance on the occasion of the royal marriage.
Not only Prince Ishra from Rujail but also
The civil officials attached to the king are accompanying us to prepare the documents quickly.
I want to create the documents related to the alliance with them and form the alliance soon.
Can you handle it?”
ㅤ
“Oh, so that’s what the urgent work was.
I thought it was just Emillia’s engagement.”
ㅤ
“Ah, yes. I’ll ask you to do that at the same time.
Prince Ishra will be staying in Eugenis,
Because he will be attending this academy along with Emillia.
. . .I know the paperwork will be tough, but can I leave it to you?”
ㅤ
I feel guilty asking the ever-busy Douglas in the office,
But I can’t leave the alliance documents to just anyone.
With Douglas, the consort candidate, as the person in charge, no one should complain,
And above all, I can’t entrust it to anyone but someone I trust.
ㅤ
“It’s tough, but I’m happy to think that I’m trusted that much.
Prince Ishra, I look forward to working with you.”
ㅤ
“Yes! I think we’ll cause you some trouble, but thank you!”
ㅤ
The meeting between the two went smoothly, and before moving on to administrative procedures,
I also introduce Chris and Kyle to Prince Ishra.
ㅤ
“Prince Ishra, this is Chris, the first consort, and Kyle, the second consort.
When I ascend to the throne as queen, they will be on an equal footing with me.
Douglas is also scheduled to become the third consort when I ascend.”
ㅤ
“I’m Chris. I’m counting on you.”
ㅤ
“I’m Kyle. If you have any problems, just let me know.”
ㅤ
“. . . . . .”
ㅤ
After introducing the two, Prince Ishra’s mouth remained half-open in surprise, and there was no response.
His lack of reaction is so great that I’m worried if he’s okay.
ㅤ
“Prince Ishra, are you okay?”
ㅤ
“. . . . . .Ah, yes! I’m fine! I’m sorry!”
ㅤ
Perhaps he was shocked that I will have three husbands?
Rujail said they only marry once in a lifetime.
He may find the idea of marrying three people disgusting.
ㅤ
. . . . . .Unbelievable. Is the princess that kind of person?
Marrying three good-looking men to attend to her. . . . . .!
ㅤ
Ah, that’s right, Kyle’s half-sister had denied it.
She called me promiscuous.
To the Rujail country, where even royal men marry only one wife,
It might be unbelievably promiscuous.
ㅤ
“Ah, um, Prince Ishra. . . I know having three husbands may be unbelievable, but. . .”
ㅤ
“Ah, that’s not it! I’m sorry! I was lost in thought.
I’ve come with the resolve to become a citizen of this country.
I’ve properly researched Eugenis!
I understand the conditions for the queen to ascend to the throne!
I have no intention of denying that at all!”
ㅤ
It was denied in a panic, but I wonder if it made him feel awkward.
I’m anxious that I might have upset the young prince.
ㅤ
“That’s right. . . but if there’s anything, please say it?”
ㅤ
“It’s okay. In fact, I understand that cultures are different from country to country.
Above all, I know the princess who was rampaging without understanding that.
I believe I am not someone lacking in manners like that.
ㅤ
I don’t feel like Prince Ishra, who answers me straight, is deceiving me.
If he understands, I’m truly grateful.
ㅤ
“Yes, I’m glad you’re trying to understand this country properly.”
ㅤ
“Yes! I intend to die in this country!”
ㅤ
“Huh, ah, really?”
ㅤ
“Yes!”
ㅤ
I thought he came with great determination, but I guess that’s how important Emillia is.
I asked him to contact Emillia before moving here.
I think we can let them meet after the face-to-face meeting is over.
ㅤ
“. . .I’m just plain old me.”
ㅤ
Prince Ishra panicked when he heard Kyle muttering softly.
