Chapter 439
"A meeting... S-she requested a meeting and I... I lost myself to her sound like a fool..." — Blushed by the entranced feelings she provoked, Zeleskiaz felt faint to the anticipation; glancing in the direction she had taken to exhale with troubled desire and hope. — "The surprise left me speechless... yet maybe... Maybe it is time...? Finally time... to give up the patience I’ve stuck with so hazardously..."
— Let us meet there, my Prince... —
A delicious shiver drowned his soul with flatters, fresh in its caress... yearning to hear her voice that felt like a dream again... Soon... to also tell something of himself that with this little exchange conveyed she could now grant answer.
"A word from my Lady... so clear and tremendously bracing..." — Bewitched, Zeleskiaz smiled sweetly to the daydream imagining agreement to the feelings he deeply held. — "... I am not to make you wait."
Eager, he moved focused on where she had told him to meet. Long strides could not allow calm speed... for, illusioned by the expectation, his heart felt like exploding as his feelings overflowed lovely in his essence. Walking fast, even using abilities meant for battle so he would get to the place faster.
And yet, in his path, Zeleskiaz inevitably met her again... for the lady had been stopped by a pair of nobles which she could not avoid like he could.
"Is it alright if I introduce you to my daughter? She has been saying how much she would like to meet and befriend you, Precious Ninth."
’Uh... b-but I...-!’ — Her gaze met his that observed the Lady with fondness while she glanced in hesitation. Receiving his nod... for it was him who would go ahead aware that there would be a delay on her part.
’... I will wait where you told me, my Love.’
’! Ngh~ No way... He’ll be there before us...!’ — Regretful as she saw him go to the agreed spot, Marianne accepted the noble’s wish. For it was difficult to avoid as her voice wanted to be kept a secret from others for a little longer.
