"I made a wristwatch," Leonia replied as if it wasn't a big deal. In the gap, he came running down to the bottom of the sofa.
"I asked you to make me a strap for your wrist. I thought it would be better to speak quietly to Lady Hienia than to ask directly to Count Hienia. ”
"That's right," Paul agreed. The idea of wearing a watch on the wrist was ingenious.
It was of high commercial value. It was a good thing that such precious things were not entrusted to people like Count and the Countess Hienia. It would have been better to leave it to Lady Hienia.
I feel sorry about the stalker's past, but at least I won't talk carelessly because I've done something.
"I don't like them." Leonia said, squeezing Paul's fingers.
"It's bad to swear at your daughter for being insignificant."
"That's what you said?" Paul asked, raising his upper body. His eyes were full of surprises.
"He discriminates against his children a lot."
Leonia, who thought it was time, told him everything she knew.
"...I'm out of my mind” said Paul after listening to the whole story. The fact that the Count of Hienia cherished his youngest son was well known in aristocratic society.
The eldest son of the house is friends with Ufikla, so I've heard many stories from Canis. The Count is busy bragging about his son, saying he is a smart and good son.
On the other hand, there was no talk about his daughter. Paul thought it was simply because he was ashamed of her daughter stalking me. But from Leonia's point of view, he seems to have been doing something to his daughter before.
“I think it was because of her parents that she became like that.” Leonia groaned.
"Parents shouldn't do that. Right, Dad?"
"Of course," said Philio, as he gently patted the child's head. Leonia fell backwards as she swept her bangs from her forehead to the top of her head. Soon there was a giggle of laughter. Thanks to the soft carpet, it didn't hurt when I fell.
'There's room for consideration. 'I don't intend to easily forgive for what I've done, but I was going to let it go to some extent if I sincerely apologize through this incident. Of course, if you repeat your mistakes, everything will be over.
"So, do you think it's gonna work out? That wristwatch." Paul asked Leonia.
"Who do you think I am?" Leonia grinned.
"Don't be surprised to see it."
●●●
It was the day before the banquet that the completed clock arrived.
"My lady..."
Knock, knock, and Tra found Leonia. Leonia looked at Connie while checking out the dress to wear to the palace tomorrow. Connie, who knew the meaning, hurriedly opened the door. Tra had a small velvet box in his hand.
"It's done!"
Leonia smiled relieved as he received the box. It was close, but it seemed to have been made just in time.Just to check, I opened the box slightly.
"Oh my! You are so beautiful!"
Leonia, who checked the finished watch, gave a kiss sign to express her joy. I mean, I really like it. And closed it in a hurry.
"Is this what you expected, My Lady?" asked Tra. Leonier smiled satisfactorily.
"Yes, I think it's done safely. "
"Then, I'm glad, My Lady" said Tra.
"I'm going to give it to my dad now."
"The master will be pleased."
"I hope so……. ”.
Leonia shook his body gently.
"And the Lord called."
"Dad called ? Leonia really thought it was a timely call.
"Please listen to this." Leonia rolled the box to Tra.
"It was an important item, so it was difficult if I fell down."
Tra put the box deep in his inside pocket, saying, "I understand."
The baby beast's steps in the hallway were more lightly steep than ever.
'It's fun to go to the palace tomorrow. Finally, the banquet was tomorrow'. In return, she also considered ways to screw over the emperor and got permission from Paul.
In addition, the watch for the gift was completed and arrived.There was no need to be sullen.
"You are a light walker". Tra, who followed, said with a piece of clothing. It was really nice to see her getting more cheerful like a child than when he first thought of it.
"That's because I feel good."
"It's nice to listen to all the songs."
"I'll sing a song for you in particular. "
With Lee Wang Hong (I don't know maybe he is a singer or music composer) on the rise, Leonia decided to sing a special improvisation.
"A man with six-packed abs knows! I don't know a man if he's too tight. He's a good-looking guy, too."
"Coolness! Curiosity!"
Surprised, Tra croaked enough to run out of breath. Instead of hiding her desires, he was so surprised that the song was revealed without censorship, and he was choked up.
"My... My Lady..."
Tra hurriedly told her not sing anymore. But it was pointless. Leonia's voice, already absorbed in the song, was indifferent. Rather, she raised her voice even more innocent.
“Seeing the bare thighs that were sitting on the floor, and the back of my feet, I had a nosebleed! I like muscles....."
The gentle footsteps along with the song were cheerful.
'Master...'
Tra sympathized with Paul. It wasn't normal to raise a child. And he also realized that he was filial to his mother, Kara. And the song reached its climax.
Leonia, who stopped bouncing, gathered her features in the middle of his face.
"Guess who my dad is! How on earth did you build up such muscles?"
At the moment, Leonia's back looked overlapped with gorillas in clear pants. Tra didn't know why such an animal came to mind, but somehow the strange animal
looked like a girl and a chicken.
"... it was perfect."
The euphemistic Leonia was shy, rubbing her nose with her fingers. It seemed to be quite a perfect improvisation. 'I thought I'd be fine at least in my diary'.
"Tra, how is it ?"
''Well, My Lady...''
"Was it bad?''
"Honestly, it was really great. The pitch and beat were so refreshing that it hit my head."
But that wasn't the problem. Tra grabbed Leonia and made her turn around. There was Paul. And there were two guests who followed.
"Oh, my God!" Leonia was squealing with laughter.
"Are you done? " That was a poem that Paul can't describe. Paul stares at Leonia with a poker face. The sigh that flowed out of his stomach pressed down on the sea. The guests each covered their mouths with the back of their hands and a fan and turned their heads.
Just by looking at their shivering shoulders, I could tell they were holding back their laughter.
"Daddy....!" Leonia puffed up her cheeks.
"Dad, you scared me!" she grumbled,
'Act like you're popular.'
"Sing that song alone in your room. It's embarrassing to let others hear it."
"No, I'm confident. "
Leonia stretched her chest wide and smug like a fat pigeon. Paul was lamentable. There were probably no parents in the world who suffered more from parenting than I did.
"Be ashamed of yourself. ”
It's my baby that doesn't hurt my eyes, but I thought it would hurt a lot today.
"Countess Bosgruni! ” Leonia, who was listening to his dad's nagging, found the guests.
"It's been a while. "
The old lady, who managed to swallow a laugh, deliberately coughed and wiped her throat. And she greeted with courtesy as if nothing had happened.
'I didn't even have to ask you how you've been.'
Leonie was tall and had a lot of flesh.
She wasn't the skinny kid she saw last year. Now she really looked like a kid in her age.
'I could see how carefully the Vereoti family had taken care of the child.'
Countess Bosgruni waits sincerely. A gentle smile formed on the old lady's lips.
"You're very bold. "
While Leonia was creating a warm atmosphere with Countess Bosgruni for a long time, a deep voice fell up there. Leonia's face was not seen until he tilted his neck back. An old gentleman as big as the northern mountains bent over.
"Leo, Count Urmariti. " Paul introduced it.
"It's called Artique. ”
Count Urmariti reached out his palm. It was huge enough to cover Leonia's face. Leonia put her little hand on it. It was a small maple chisel attached to a forbidden rock.
“Hello, my name is Leonia. ”
“It’s an honor to meet you, Young Lady, and I heard the song from a while ago", Count Urmariti was wearing a garb.
“Muscles are great. ”
The old gentleman loved the song Leonia sang. Count Urmariti also showed off his strong muscles as if the fabric would get wet. Leonia was wearing a big smile.
Anyone who recognized the true value of my song was a good person. It's better to have muscles, and in that sense, Count Urmariti was a very good man.
"What brings you both to the mansion? ”.
Leonia asked why they visited the mansion late. I never thought I'd meet two nobles in the capital.
"We are also attending an imperial banquet tomorrow. I'm here to say hello in advance."
Countess Bosgruni said. "The whole Northern Boneguard aristocracy was invited to this banquet. " Paul didn't like this fact very much. It was very unpleasant that the emperor dared to call the aristocrats of the North to come and go.
"And the Duke of Kerata? Is Flo here? "
Leonier's eyes glistened. It's been a long time since I saw Flomus, so I missed him a little.
''Yeah.''
"But why didn't your son come?"
"He wasn't called." It was only two of them who called in the mansion, Countess Bosgruni and Count Urmariti.
When I said I had a separate message, Leonia tactfully said yes and moved on.
"Then I'll be on my way. " The Countess of Bosgruni left the mansion first.
"The clock's here, isn't it? " Paul asked Leonia. Leonia's eyes are wide open.
"How did you know? "
"I know everything."
“You don’t know how many nose hairs I have."
"I don't lose a word. ”
Leonia shut her mouth only after Paul pulled back his sideburns.
"You're so funny, My Lady! " Count Urmariti was dressed like a hogul.
The watch presentation ceremony was held in Paul's office.
"But why the Count?" Leonier groped.
I understand that Loupe and Tra are here, but I didn't understand that Count Urmariti, who I met for the first time, was here.
"The Count will sell the watch. " Paul continued.
"What if I wear this watch to the banquet ?"
"Ah! " was all a smug word, but Leonia understood Paul meaning.
