*Monica Ashton’ POV*

 

“Fufu… Did you see it? My… Haru-sama has now brought the Royal Guard Division under his control.” (Alexandra)

In a room of the Chevalier Household’s townhouse in the royal capital, the young lady was joyfully speaking about today’s events.

Indeed, as Milady says, His Highness Harold has not only flawlessly hosted the envoy from the Holy Kingdom of Baltian, gaining a connection through the Saintess, but he has also secured the support of civil officials, including Minister Olson.

In addition to this, he was entrusted with the significant role of goodwill ambassador to the Capetien Kingdom. He has built friendships with both Her Highness Princess Lizette, the first princess, and Her Highness Princess Elene, the second princess. Furthermore, he successfully resolved the coup d’état incident, achieving unprecedented success.

And now, the control of the Royal Guard Division. His Highness Harold, through his capabilities, has won the trust of the proud Royal Guards, and Commander Drake has offered him his sword.

His Highness Harold’s accomplishments this past year have been remarkable, and his influence within the royal court is now immense. If His Highness wishes, he could even seize the throne, surpassing His Highness Cardis, the First Prince, and His Highness Raphael, the Second Prince.

However, His Highness Harold has no interest in such matters. On the contrary, he desires to become a part of the Chevalier Household by marriage. To those who don’t know him, it may seem as though he has no ambition, but from my perspective, having served him closely, there is no one as… greedy as His Highness.

More so than even the young lady, who has been bestowed the Dragon’s Favor.

“By the way, Milady, you have managed to keep your composure well. Whether at the Capetien Kingdom or with the Royal Guard Division, I, Monica, was constantly worried about when you might lose control.” (Monica)

“Mm… W-well, I’ve grown too, you know? Even though I made a blunder by losing control before Haru-sana in front of the Saintess, I won’t make the same mistake twice.” (Alexandra)

Milady turned her face away and pouted. However, from what I observed up close, there was no doubt she was on the verge of losing control. Although her eyes didn’t turn red, her pupils did change to a narrow, slit-like shape.

“In any case, if you truly wish to be with His Highness Harold for life, please continue to be mindful.” (Monica)

“I-I know that!” (Alexandra)

I remind the young lady once more. It may be bothersome to her, but I will caution her as many times as necessary. For the happiness of Milady and His Highness Harold is my happiness.

“Hey, hey, Monica… Was Xandra alright?” (Harold)

As soon as we returned to the royal palace from the Milady’s townhouse, His Highness Harold asked with a concerned expression.

Hmm…? The young lady has been as lively as ever… or rather, ever since the Dragon’s Favor manifested, she hasn’t even caught a cold, let alone had any ailments. Her only concern has ever been His Highness Harold, so I can’t think of anything else. However, His Highness Harold, the Milady most beloved fiancé, must have noticed something.

“I’m sorry, but from what I could see, Milady appeared to be her usual self.” (Monica)

“I see. That’s good to hear…” (Harold)

“Is there something wrong?” (Monica)

“Well… uh…” (Harold)

His Highness Harold seemed a bit hesitant, but after some deliberation, he spoke to me. When he visited the Royal Guard Division’s camp, although the color of her eyes hadn’t changed, Milady’s pupils had taken on a reptilian shape.

…So, His Highness Harold noticed as well.

“I told you before, Monica. There was a time when Xandra’s eyes turned red, and she almost harmed the Saintess. This time, her eyes remained the color of sapphire, but her pupils had changed.” (Harold)

“I see…” (Monica)

I nodded gravely as His Highness Harold lowered his gaze slightly. However, I couldn’t help but wonder.

What does His Highness Harold think of the young lady, who has changed due to the Dragon’s Favor?

“If…” (Monica)

“Monica?” (Harold)

“If the Milady’ss true form is something like what you saw before, what would you think…?” (Monica)

I shouldn’t have asked such a thing. With this, His Highness Harold would now realize that I know the young lady’s secret. It’s only a matter of time before he bombards me with questions. And when he learns that I said I ‘didn’t know’ despite being aware, he’ll surely be disappointed… But…

“Hm… It’s true that I was a little surprised to see Xandra acting differently than usual. And yes, I did feel a bit scared for a moment.” (Harold)

“…” (Monica)

“But you see, she got that way because she was angry on my behalf. So, I think it’s my fault for making her feel that way.” (Harold)

His Highness Harold spoke to me earnestly, carefully choosing his words. Each one of them showed his deep love and consideration for Milady.

Truly… Milady has an eye for people. No wonder the Dragon’s Favor has manifested.

“So, if that form is the real Xandra, of course, I’ll accept it… No, that’s not right. That Xandra is still my most precious fiancée in the whole world.” (Harold)

Saying this, His Highness Harold blushed a little but smiled happily.

“…Milady is the luckiest person in the world to be loved by His Highness Harold.” (Monica)

“Really? Ah, but don’t tell Xandra about this, okay?” (Harold)

“As you wish. I will keep today’s events a secret in my heart.” (Monica)

I gave a deep bow to His Highness Harold, who playfully acted mischievous.

I swear my absolute loyalty to this most wonderful lord in this world.
