Chapter 22
22 Prince Wang Perspective
“I’m thinking about going back to my territory.”
After I got home from the Marquis Marcel house, I was sitting alone in the office chair. It’s not about doing anything, just sitting there, Bo.
I look sideways at the work I need to get my hands on, but I still can’t reach for the paperwork I’ve loaded.
Ha, I get a little sigh.
No.
Cover your face with both hands and close your eyes.
But all that floats is Rachel’s face.
I wonder what has happened to me.
I’ve never felt this vague anxiety before.
Return to territory……?
I think it’s a good choice for her.
The fact that I’m feeling better has allowed me to do what I want.
That’s what I do: I go out into the city, I tour the stalls, I go into the cafe, I order whatever I want in the dining room.
I’m sure those things are Rachel’s first experience.
And I guess you make your eyes shine again and smile happily ever after.
Thinking about it makes me feel warm.
But at the same time, why is it so painful in the back of my chest?
She is, Rachel is.
Will you come back to me when you return to the kingdom?
That’s what I think, I shake my head without thinking of it.
No, I’m not sure…
I’ve never felt anything like that before, like I’m not sure.
If there’s anything missing, you just have to try to be enough.
If you have an answer you don’t want, you can move it the way you want.
I’ve only thought about it that way.
But now I don’t know what to do with the effort.

“It’s Cyril. I see Theodore.”
“Oh, let me through”
You hear a knock on the door of the office, bringing the body that was also on the back of the chair straight back.
I heard Cyril’s voice heard from across the door with a blurred head and replied like a conditional reflex.
The door opened and, as usual, a childhood familiar wearing a black robe came into the room.
I didn’t see this one as chilling or greeting, and proceeded with Zukazuka in the center of the room.
And when I sat dokah on the couch where it was placed, I put my long legs together and turned my gaze to this one.
Theodore then slightly opens his eyes and raises the angle of his mouth. It’s like, “I found something interesting.”
“Heh, something happened. I can’t believe you look like that, Miss Rachel.
I’m not in the mood to talk.
“Wow, what are you obstinate about? What, are you sick? Is it a disease of love?
Theodore moves in my direction as he rises off the couch. Coming to my sight, I laid one hand on my desk and took a serious peek into my face.
I turn away to escape that gaze.
“Shut up.”
“You’re childish. Because I’m your late first love, after all?
I get a grumpy look at Niyanya and Theodore laughing in front of me.
But I’m not going to do anything about it in front of this guy.
Still, it’s your first love.
First love… Yes, it would certainly be my first love.
It’s only recently that I realized that.
My world changed when I walked through the gardens of Rachel and the Marquis Marcel family.
The monochrome one suddenly became brighter in color.
The flowers are brightly coloured and the blue of the sky stands out.
And nailed to Rachel’s smile.
I didn’t hear voices around me or anything, and only Rachel’s comfortable voice got into my ear.
Oh, is this what love is all about?
Ston, and it fell on my chest.
But it’s also true that I’ve had enough of that feeling.
Since then, between jobs, when I fall asleep, when I eat, fuzz about her is past my head.
Would you like this book?
Would this confection be a preference?
Are you feeling unwell?
Just a little, I want to see your face.
I want to see you.
I’m sure, if you really think of her.
It would be better if she canceled the engagement she wanted…… she would be more at peace.
Prince Wang’s position as fiancée would only be a burden to Rachel today.
She doesn’t want anything.
Even before, I think of myself as a man who didn’t even look straight at her before Rachel got sick.
More, from the beginning, she will realize her own virtues, and there will be those she loves.
Something that can give her what she wants and take care of her. I guess there are more who deserve it.
But even if I think about it… I can’t do that for you.
I can’t let him go.
And I don’t like myself like that.
Maybe I’m the one who’s tormenting her the most.
“So, do we keep looking for the cause of magic depletion?
“Oh, of course it is”
“I’m concerned about the phenomenon, too, so I’ll help you as always. But we’d better find out about the Dark Spirit.”
“Right. How the Church announces about the Spirit of Darkness also changes Rachel’s life”
“… she’s going back to her territory.”
Return to the realm…… raise your gaze to the words and see Theodore’s face. Oh, you knew.
Theodore then let me flaunt my shoulders with all my thoughts and prospects.
“Isn’t it better than being in the king’s capital now?
“… I think it’s a good choice too.”
“Well, send it off quickly, then”
My head gets cool and hot.
I try to put it on my desk and squeeze my hand into it, and it makes a loud noise.
“I know!
“Oh, you know what I mean.
You know, you’re scared she’s going away. ”
The fist I put on my desk shivers in full.
But I quickly lost my power.
And a terribly weak grunt that I don’t think is my voice comes out of my mouth.
“What do I do…”
“Laugh and send it away.
So, as always, you can look for the cause of her magic depletion. ”
“Of course I will.”
“She’s the one who chooses.
Still, you just have to be ready to rush first when she’s in trouble. ”
Raise your gaze to the word.
At the end of his gaze, he had the face of a friend who laughed worryingly, not like a smile.
“You’re a good one.”
“Oh, I think so too. If I had a guy like myself, I’d get married.”
The words leaked haha laughter.
“Right. But you’re right.”
Theodore snorted one without saying anything when he laughed as if he was relieved.
“In the meantime, I’ll ask the Marquis to add one of my hands to Rachel’s escort.”
“What?”
“‘Cause when Rachel was in danger, if you didn’t figure that out, you couldn’t help her right away, could you?
Theodore in front of me in my words has a pocan face.
What are you looking at?
But right. If that’s what you decide, you have to make a selection.
You have to be a pretty skilled man.
Shall I do it to him, or him?
I think of many candidates in my head.
Theodore, who was still mocking the condition, gave me a hazy look.
And he started laughing with his belly in his arms again.
“Ha ha, right. That’s you.”
“… that’s rude.”
Right.
In the meantime, let’s support her so that her world can be even better.
And from the anxiety that has not yet disappeared…… for now, I turn away.
It’s a pile of things you have to do.
But there’s one thing we need to do before Rachel goes to the realm.
When I realized that, I decided to write to Rachel first when Theodore returned.
