Book 7: Chapter 23
“Princess. Princess.” Nier turned around with a frown. This is the backyard of the palace. Normally, nobody should be entering this area, but somebody was calling out to her from behind. The two Valkyries from behind her drew their swords. Nier waved her hand. She looked at the young guy who wore a flattering smile and tilted her head. Her green eyes were void of emotion. She coldly said to him: “I remember you a somewhat. You’re the one guy from last time… Oubacher, right?”
“Yes, yes. Thank you for remembering me princess.”
He revealed a smile and walked forward. The Valkyries swiftly held their swords up to his neck. Nier looked at him with a cold gaze and said: “I don’t care who you are. This is the royal family’s backyard. What right do you have to be here?”
“Umm, my father is discussing business with her majesty. Her majesty had me come here to take a rest, so I followed the scent of flowers and found you. You really are more beautiful than flowers. You truly are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.”
He snickered mischievously as he looked at the swords the Valkyries had at his neck. He wasn’t afraid at all. Nier frowned. It looks like this guy is just scum. He sure is the rich type with power. It would cause trouble if the Valkyries were to kill him here.
She waved her hand and the Valkyries put their swords down. She snorted and waved her hand again. With her back facing him she said: ”Aside from the fact that you’re one who is unaccountably solicitous, you won’t get anything from me. You didn’t give me a good impression of you last time, so leave if you have no business here. You were told to rest, not to come and compliment me.”
“Don’t say that, princess. I heard… his majesty is not here at the moment.”
He wore a haughty smile as he approached her, right up to her back. Nier’s eyebrows twitched when she heard “his majesty”. She looked a little sad but he didn’t see it. She turned her head around to look at him and exclaimed: “You’re not qualified to know where his majesty is!”
“Princess, I also heard that his majesty went north to the elves to accompany his other princess…… How pitiable, princess. You are so beautiful and carry his child, yet he is wasting such a beauty. Do you not hate that? You love his majesty so much, but it does not look like he cherishes your love.”
