COUNT SALAH CONFESS'S
Chapter 44

Dinner was like something weird. Count's usually warm and friendly face looks a little wrinkled and Freya can tell that her father seems to be thinking a lot.

Earlier, both Killion and Count Galo agreed that at the dinner, they would announce their return east to the Jmaes. In this case, they agreed that Count ah would act as a parent who would say goodbye and say goodbye.

Killion, who was also looking at his face, asked him if his father had no intention of returning to his house or if there was anything else. He was eager to ask, but his father who was scooping the cream soup with the full mouthful seemed to be eating voraciously, so Killion paused his intention to ask.

After a heavy meal, a variety of dessert dishes are served.

The Count who was anticipating when he should start talking even though he immediately straightened his body.

"Ehem...." Count cleared his throat to start a conversation.

"How's the night meal, is there anything that doesn't taste." James asked lightly. Since then he looks very relaxed as if all his burden yesterday has made him dizzy lifted all.

"Well, as always, all the dishes in the Grand Duke's residence are the best." That's an honest compliment, because indeed all the food served by the chef is very good.

James smiled with satisfaction. His efforts to call the head chef and prepare everything with the best version was not in vain. Maybe a good point has been scored. So James thought.

Count breathed heavily.

"....?" Freya increasingly knew that her father had already thought of something.

"I'm honored to have the invitation to come to this beautiful uatara region of the Grand Duke." Count Galo had already started with his farewell speech.

"North is a beautiful region even though it is a bit far from the Capital, but here it is no less advanced also with the Capital. The food is friendly and the food is good. The leader is capable and handsome of course." Count praised James.

James' ears were wide, with praise from a man he respected a lot. James wanted to fly.

"Thank you for the good impression, dear Mr. Count, I hope you all feel at home here. It is my happiness and pride to be able to welcome someone special to me." James said with a proud smile, occasionally he glanced at Freya and it made Freya a little misbehaved.

"Hahaha...my once small, thin and naughty students seem to be good at praising people." For the Count himself, it is not easy to forget the childhood memories of children who grew up with his children let alone the children he cared for every summer vacation, he said,

"Well, I admit I was very naughty." James confirmed the count's remark.

In both hearts Freya and Killion agreed. Even the moment that made Freya afraid of Jmaes was her prank. In addition to a stiff and cold face, little James loved to make Freya cry.

They were all laughing, nostalgia was the best medicine to bring the atmosphere closer.

"But His Majesty the Grand Duke, time is something we can't repeat and we all have our own busy lives." The Count's direction has begun to lead.

Freya seems to have caught the point that her father wants to convey that his vacation this time is over. He wanted to shout happily but there was a part of his heart that was also sad. The sense that came simultaneously made Freya question her heart. Is he really happy or sad?

"Yes, Dude... I also have to start my time at the academy back." Killion joined the farewell.

This time Freya wanted to open her mouth to speak, but not yet had she opened her mouth, her father had already called out to her.

"Freya my son."

"....?" Killion himself was apparently quite shocked.

'Really so! Come.. Father-in-law, try to bring our beloved Princess.' James who was holding back his smile also pinched his arm for him to hold back.

Freya was momentarily absentminded. Then, "Wait....?" He tried to shake his father's words. The tone contained a request.

"I mean Dad?" Freya asked again to be sure.

"Your father and brother are coming back, but it looks like you have to stay here to help. Wouldn't it be more useful and useful than if you came back home."

What the fuck. Freya was played with by her father's jokes. No, it wasn't his father's fault. Freya believes this was all James' idea.

Freya glanced at James with a sharp look. His gaze was as if he wanted to pounce on her with scorn and mockery of course.

But James did not want to take a headache, he instead smiled at Freya.

'Damn it, why does he look so handsome.' Inner Freya churned. He feels strange about himself.

"Ah sorry if this might surprise Freya and Kill themselves. This is actually my request. I need Freya here to help me." James gave his explanation and reason. James was also unwilling to be a coward and hide behind the Count's cloak. The Count was only an intermediary and an opener so that Freya would also consider her decision.

Sure enough, Freya pondered. It is true that Freya also always educated his father with a lot of knowledge. He also read and discussed with his father. Sometimes to channel his knowledge he has taught in Sunday classes for ordinary people or in orphanages. Leave Dad? freya's Courage.

"Dad will be alone later." Freya made her conclusion in a sad tone.

Although Killion was at home but he also immediately got an offer to teach at the Academy despite still being an assistant.

"Don't think about it, I'm still healthy. Remember it's important for you to also seek experience."

Being offered to help manage the territory was an opportunity and opportunity for Freya. Actually, James' offer is very good if reviewed from any aspect. Although yes at first it was just a James mode.

Freya whose ego is still high and obviously the prestige is eager to reject it, but his father has already intervened so he inevitably has to make a wise decision.

North is a vast territory, in times of unstable circumstances and the ruler goes to war while no companion of course will experience inequality in its management. But a year Freya, James's been hiring somebody, why she still needs help.

'James should just get married so there's a hostess helping him right!' suddenly Freya's thoughts reached there.

'Married? has he? with who?' His mind kept asking

"Freya?" The Count called his daughter.

"uh? Huh yeah?" He just daydreamed.

"Well, if you think so, I'll stay." Freya smiled, then looked at James with a murderous gaze.

Plong. All of his business from holding Freya back to the side continued to walk as he wished.
