Rogue Prince – Chapter 166

I have a very… a very important request!
Please read until the afterword!
“Haa… I’m so bored…”

A month had passed since the Summer Break started, and Lize slumped on the table, sighing.

“It can’t be helped. It’s so hot, I’d really like to go swimming in the sea, but unfortunately, you’re the First Princess of the Capetien Kingdom. If something were to happen, it would be a disaster.”

I took a sip of the mint, honey, and lemon tea that Monica had specially made for me, and shrugged.
This drink is refreshing and easy to drink. Perfect for summer.

“Ufufu. Then, it would be cool if you went to the church, right?”
“I refuse. The Capetien Kingdom supports the Baltian Church, but I’m not that devout a believer myself.”
“Oh, that’s too bad.”

While saying that, Christia took a sip of her tea with a composed expression. It seems she had no intention of going from the start.

“Speaking of which, where are Yuri and the others?”
“If you’re talking about them, they said they’re going on a street stall tour with Liliana-sama again today.”
“Wow… she never gets tired of it…”

I let out an amazed voice at Monica’s words.
Just how much does she love meat? If she continues this diet, she’ll get fat in the future… but despite eating so much, her figure doesn’t change at all…

Is this because she’s the protagonist of ‘Galhaza’ and has a cheat skill called [Diet]? I don’t think there’s such a skill in ‘EnHaza’.

“Hmm… Lize seems bored too, so let’s go outside the Royal Capital for a bit. If it’s just a day trip, there shouldn’t be any particular danger.”
“! That’s a good idea!”

Lize’s eyes sparkled, probably because she thought she would finally be freed from boredom.
Well, there’s nothing special outside the Royal Capital, but if I think of it as a drive(・・・・) in my previous life, it’s not a bad choice.

“Prince Harold, I will arrange a carriage immediately.”
“Yeah, please do.”

So, we got into the carriage that Monica had arranged and left the Royal Palace, heading outside the Royal Capital.

“Oh… isn’t that Liliana and the others?”
“Ah, it’s true.”

At the end of Lize’s pointing finger, there was Liliana, gleefully holding many meat skewers at a street stall, and Yuri, with a wry smile, stopping Lloyd, who was protesting vehemently.
Those three have become quite close in the past month. Yuri still finds gaps and sticks close to me, though.

“Let’s go quickly. If Ulysses-sama and the others find us, it will be troublesome.”
“Ah, haha…”

Yuri is Sandra’s natural enemy, so she’s desperately trying to prevent her from joining us.
Don’t worry, Liliana’s doing a good job (?) of keeping them from noticing this carriage.

So.

“…There’s nothing here.”
“Of course. Isn’t this what it’s like outside the Royal Capital?”

The scenery outside the castle gate was just a plain covered with overgrown grass.
Well, if there was something that could be used to defend against the enemy in case of war, it would be a strategic problem, so it can’t be helped.

“Prince Harold, there is a stream a little further from here, how about going there?”
“Ah, that’s a good idea.”

Accepting Monica’s suggestion, the carriage carrying us headed for the stream.

But.

“This… isn’t this more than a stream?”

No matter how you look at it, the river is nearly a hundred meters wide. Isn’t this the “Themis River”?
By the way, the Themis River flows through the Royal Capital Kaditt, and it is not only used for domestic water but also serves as a key point for distribution, so it is no exaggeration to say that it is the lifeline of the kingdom.

“It is also the duty of a master to indulge his Personal Maid’s jokes.”
“Ah, is that so.”
“Prince Harold has become so cold… am I no longer needed?”
“Okay, okay. Enough with the jokes.”

You know that I would never(・・・・) do(・・・) such a thing to you, who is irreplaceable(・・・・) to me.
Well, it’s proof that we have a relationship where we can say such jokes without worry.

However.

“Hmm… the breeze is nice, and the scenery is good.”
“I know, right? You may praise this Monica more, you know?”

She’s like this as soon as I praise her a little.
She’s already big enough, so I think she should refrain from puffing out her chest any further.

“Hal! Let’s have tea here!”
“Ah, that’s a good idea.”

As Lize ordered in the name of a suggestion, we spread a blanket on the ground and decided to enjoy tea… but.

“…It’s rare to see a woman wearing a maid uniform walking in a place like this.”
“That’s right. It seems that one’s(・・・) memory only lasts for a month.”

Sandra and I shrugged, looking at the braided woman in the maid uniform… Margaret’s Personal Maid.
