“Please, I hope this suits Your Highness Harold’s taste.” (Margo)

“Yes, it’s really delicious.” (Harold)

At dinner time, we indulged in the dishes lined up closely together. As expected, being close to the sea, the seafood is unbelievably delicious.

More than anything…

“Haru! This, um……” (Casparleague)

“Is it sashimi?” (Harold)

“Yes! It’s super delicious, right?!” (Casparleague)

Cas, who was perched on my shoulder, expressed his joy in a way that Margo couldn’t hear.

That’s right. For some reason, even though this is supposed to be a European-style country, sashimi was prepared.

In my previous life, it was common to eat sashimi, so it brings back great memories, and I can’t help but eat a lot. However, since there’s no soy sauce, I’m just using salt.

“Monica has been eating such delicious food since she was little, huh.” (Harold)

“…Yes.” (Monica)

Monica nodded lightly with an unchanged expression as she took a bite of food.

Until we came here, I could see her emotions, but now I have no idea what she’s feeling at all.

At that moment…

“I apologize for being late.” (??)

A girl wearing a green dress appeared, curtseying.

Who is this girl with gray hair and emerald-like eyes……?

“I apologize for my late introduction. I am Sara, the second daughter of the Ashton Household.” (Sara)

“Ah… I’m Harold. Thank you for having me.” (Harold)

I hurriedly stood up and introduced myself.

Being the second daughter means she is Monica’s younger sister. She doesn’t resemble Monica at all, probably because she takes after her mother.

“Sara, please take your seat quickly. You’ve kept Your Highness Harold waiting.” (Margo)

“Hehe, yes.” (Sara)

Prompted by Margo-sama, Sara sat down with a wry smile directly across from me. Normally, the eldest daughter, Monica, would sit in front of me, but since she was also treated as a guest this time, she was sitting two seats to my right.

“Still, I never expected you would want to spend your time in the Ashton territory, Your Highness Harold.” (Sara)

“Yes. I heard that there is a sea in the Ashton territory, which is Monica’s family home. That’s why I barged in like this.” (Harold)

I was a bit concerned about the slightly prickly wording, but I deliberately let it slide.

After all, since it’s Monica’s mother, it’s us who are causing trouble.

However…

“Margo. Do you have any complaints about my Haru-sama?” (Alexandra)

“!? N-no, I truly apologize for my rudeness……” (Margo)

When Xandra spoke with a cold gaze, Margo-sama broke into a cold sweat and apologized.

Ah, as I thought, those earlier words were sarcasm directed at me. Hah… I hoped that Monica would at least be able to see her family, but this is the result… When we return to the room, I’ll apologize to Monica.

After that, we finished dinner in a slightly heavy atmosphere.

“Monica, I’m really sorry……” (Harold)

As soon as I returned to the room, I deeply bowed my head and apologized to Monica.

At first, I thought maybe she was just shy or feeling a bit awkward since it was her family home, but I realized she really didn’t want to come here. Moreover, even though her own daughter has returned, Margo-sama wouldn’t even make eye contact, and her attitude seemed to suggest that she felt inconvenienced by our presence. I completely messed up.

“Y-your Highness Harold, please stop. I am the one who should apologize for making you feel uncomfortable.” (Monica)

Monica also bowed her head in return.

“No, Monica, you did nothing wrong. It’s my fault for making a decision on my own.” (Harold)

“No, it’s my fault. I should have……” (Monica)

“No, it’s me!” (Harold)

“No, it’s me!” (Monica)

For some reason, it turned into a back-and-forth, and neither of us could back down……

“Ah, ahaha… what are we doing on our first night here?” (Harold)

“Indeed. I will take responsibility and provide Your Highness Harold with a special night. Or perhaps I should have Your Highness Harold provide it instead.” (Monica)

With a wry smile, Monica adjusted her glasses and said that.

But… yeah. That’s my favorite, the usual Monica.

“Muuh…… are you leaving me out?” (Alexandra)

“That’s true. Both Haru and Monica are terrible!” (Casparleague)

Xandra puffed her cheeks out dramatically, and Cas crossed his front paws skillfully, glaring with a disgruntled look.

They are both cute.

“Sorry, sorry. That wasn’t my intention…” (Harold)

“Fufu, I understand.” (Alexandra)

“Hehe, I was just teasing a little.” (Casparleague)

Seeing the cuteness of Xandra and Cas as they stuck their tongues out playfully, I couldn’t help but feel the urge to hug them. If I had my smartphone, I’d definitely take a picture and set it as my wallpaper.

Then…

“Your Highness Harold, Milady, Cas-san…… thank you.” (Monica)

“Of course. I’m always being helped by you.” (Harold)

I replied with a smile to Monica, who blushed slightly and bowed.

And then, late that night.

” Your Highness Harold…” (Sara)

…Why am I being approached by Sara, who is wearing a sheer nightgown?
