「…….Celesta please raise your face already. This situation was caused by my own selfishness, so please don’t blame yourself, okay?」(Sistina Speaking)
「However, even if that may be! I was totally deceived by the demons, and even if I didn’t know it at the time, I actually put Princess’s body in harm’s way by being an accomplice to their plots……This Celesta, cannot forgive herself for such a huge blunder!」
On the morning of the second day, after Princess Sistina had been in seclusion in the depths of the underground dark elf temple.
I was just passing by the room Celesta was supposed to be sleeping in and that’s when I heard it. The Princess was speaking in a troubled tone of voice and her loyal knight was speaking with self-blame.
「Oh, are you awake, Celesta?」
「Ah, good morning Tooru-sama」
「Uu……..S-Slavemancer Tooru!?」
As soon as she saw me entering the Princess Sistina’s beautiful face was beaming. Celesta was kneeling on the ground prostrating herself and even though she raised her face to look up towards me, she had a complicated expression and couldn’t really say much.
「Good morning, Princess. It seems that you have been able to obtain a dream prophecy earlier than I expected?」
「Yes, although there are still some hazy parts……I think that I have been able to gain some information in relation to curing Nana-san’s condition desuwa」
「…….! Is that so? I’m really glad to hear it」
I spontaneously heave a huge sigh of relief when I heard her words.
The ponytailed Celesta was opening and closing her mouth in front of me as if she wanted to say something but couldn’t bring herself to do it, she then averted her eyes as she blushed……..It was a really interesting reaction.
「Hey Celesta. Considering you are way too damned honest, I bet that you approached the Princess for forgiveness and you have been continuing to blame and punish yourself for your mistakes, am I right?」
「Uuu…..T-that is!」
「Although I understand that you can’t really accept it, you really shouldn’t impose on the Princess right now, at the very least you should postpone this conversation. Although she doesn’t show it, the Princess has been in seclusion and was working hard to obtain a dream prophecy within the sacred temple, so she is actually very tired」
「Ah…….!」
She finally seems to notice that the Princess didn’t have the brightest complexion right now, and Celesta’s own face became pale.
Well, a lot of things did happen to her one after another, so much so that any normal person would lose their cool, so it was understandable that Celesta acted in this way.
「Fufu, Thank you for worrying about me. Tooru-sama, is always looking after me isn’t he?」
「Even if I look like this, I intend to fully manage and take care of the physical condition of each of my girls. Alright then, Princess, shall we head of to our meal? After we finish our meal, I would like you to tell everyone the contents that was revealed through your dream prophecy」
