Chapter 178: Separate

Editor: Sam and SenjiQ

So, Nico and I, who were liked by the group of little kids from day one, spent time with them whenever we had spare time.

Even so, the main purpose of this trip was Prince Alberts matchmaking. They thought that they should quickly have the matchmaking done from the first day, just like how the childrens group suddenly played together on the first day, but it wasnt easy to have a date with just the two of them as we all met for dinner and went to the ranch to look at the Rug Dragons together for a few days.

Apparently, Prince Albert and Farlands royalty had a good relationship, and the lively Princess Tessa argued with Prince Albert as if she was his matchmaking partner.

On the other hand, his real matchmaking partner, Sienna, blended in with the group, and spent her time smiling without asserting herself. Maybe she didnt want to have an arranged marriage, or maybe she was just being considerate towards her own Princess.

Honestly, it was tiring playing with the boys, but I dont mind prolonging our stay. After all, Ojii-sama, Oji-sama and Oba-sama are here. It was also fun to see traces of Okaa-sama everywhere.

It was also interesting to observe the situation around Prince Al during our meals together. But I dont think Nico found it very interesting.

Was Tessa-dono uncles matchmaking partner?

No, ithsh Siehna.

Siehna? Ah, Sienna? But uncle is only speaking to Tessa-dono.

Thathsh becaushe

I wanted to say that it was probably because of politics or part of diplomacy, but its hard to say it as a two year old. I put my mouth next to Nicos ear and whispered, Lei and Nico wiww go home afther thhe mathchmawing ish over. (Lei and Nico will go home after the matchmaking is over)

Nico looked at me, startled.

Thats bad. No, its not, but I dont want to go home too quickly.

Then donth worry abouth ith.

Youre right. They wont get started unless everyone separates.

Its a bit weird to say separate. Apparently, the person who was taking this matchmaking more seriously than anyone else, was Nico. I couldnt help but give him a pat on the head. Hes a good boy.

What is it?

Good boy.

Im almost four.

Ai.

But youre still a child, I didnt say.

Honesty that is hard to believe in a royal or a Four Marquis. I dont think we were like that when we were little.

Really? Is there an environment where you cant be honest in Farland?

At that time, the words that were said in the room made me feel that Prince Albert was indeed honest. It wasnt something that should be asked out loud. Sienna chuckled nearby while looking at us. In terms of age, both of them should be younger than Prince Al, but as expected, women were more mature.

I would like to go to Neville-donos Rug Dragon ranch again tomorrow. Id like to hear more about the small Rug Dragons.

Sure, thats fine. Lei has the Rug Dragon with the best personality, but since shes returned here with her, why dont you have a look at her?

Please.

If the Princess is going alone, does that mean that its finally time for the matchmaking tomorrow?

Finally? Ill have to check her out myself, Nico muttered to himself, but I dont think anyone heard him because his voice was so low.

We played outside that day until I was exhausted.

I had a bath earlier than usual and stuck to Nii-sama in our room while dozing off, then there was a knock on the door. There were guards at the door, probably because I was targeted a lot. The knock indicated that the guards had given this person permission to enter the room.

Come in, Nii-sama looked at me for a brief second and gave the person permission to enter.

Hmm. Sorry for visiting you at night.

Nico?

I was startled awake. Nico came in quietly with his guard. We played together a lot during the day, what did he want?

Well, Id like to have a private conversation with Lei.

Nii-sama looked at me, and I made an expression that said it was fine. Having said that, we only moved to a corner of the room.

We crouched down next to the wall with our backs turned towards everyone else.

Whathsh wrong?

Mm. Well, I heard that uncle will finally have his matchmaking tomorrow.

Finawwy.

Yes, finally.

If thats all, then well, its a good thing, isnt it?

Arent you curious about what kind of person Sienna is?

Noth reawwy.

I think shes a calm person, but I wasnt curious about her.

She might become my aunt!

It doesnt matter to me even if you say that. Its not like shes becoming my aunt.

So whath do you wanth tho do?

I had to ask him frankly. Im sleepy.

Hmm. Lets go watch them.

We were talking to each other, but I suddenly felt like everyone in the room was listening to us. Nico didnt notice.

Thwo, uh, thhe mathchmawing ish for thhe thwo of thhem onwy. (Two, uh, the matchmaking is for the two of them only)

Nico said something weird, so I also spoke weirdly from panic.

Youre an idiot, Lei.

Hah?

Can you believe that he called this super smart two year old an idiot?!

Of course, were going to do it secretly.

Secrethwy.

My momentary rage instantly subsided. Sneaking around sounds pretty fun.

Well leave the Farland children alone tomorrow.

Thathsh importhanth.

Well watch the matchmaking in secret.

Oway.

I grinned. His Highness also grinned.

Your Highness and Lei If Hans was here, Im sure he would say something rude like, Your bad influence has rubbed off on him, but Nii-samas surprise exclamation was nothing. Nico and I spun around.

Luke?

Nii-syama?

Ill be troubled if he becomes an accomplice.
