I stepped closer to the empty seat in the middle of Haruki and Izumi, Tsubaru moved her hand to pull the chair back for me to sit on, I moved my legs back and sat on the chair.
My eyes shifted to Niel and also Egil who was chatting, occasionally Egil moved both hands grabbing a few pieces of grilled meat that he placed on Niel's plate.
"Can you take that vegetable for me?!" Izumi's voice was heard followed by a falling object that followed slowly.
"Your Majesty," I turned my gaze to look at Tsutomu who was crouched grabbing a spoon near his feet as his eyes looked straight at Izumi who was also staring back at him.
"What's wrong?" Tukas Izumi moved back his head staring at the plate before him.
"You eat vegetables, Your Majesty? Did I, uh, not hear it wrong?" Tsutomu said he stood with his eyes still on Izumi.
"How about this, the Prince I raised... The prince I was caring for, suddenly..." He returned with both hands covering his face.
"You're so noisy Tsutomu" said Izumi scratching his head.
"You heard it was Tatsuya, Tsubaru... Her voice that used to sound cute in my ears, now even..." He said, moving his head to the side with reddened eyes and lips that were bitten strongly.
"Don't look at me, I haven't even accepted. The daughter I used to carry everywhere, has now grown so tall that it almost matches my shoulders."
I don't know if my two brothers felt a strong cold aura behind them. Me, it's been a long time... Not feeling this chest-stifling aura. It's really nostalgic.
"Do you also want to reveal your heart to Tatsuya?" Haruki's voice also broke the silence that had previously occurred.
"No, Your Grace. It's just that I was thinking, if only you guys hadn't disappeared... Maybe I'm holding your son now."
"You really think about me a lot" Haruki said grabbing the spoon and fork in front of him.
"Aahh you're right Tatsuya, we should have played with Haruki's son by now" Izumi said.
"I'll get married when my two sisters are married. Can we close this discussion?" Continued Haruki directed his cold smile at Izumi who was beside me.
"Are you guys going to get out of here? I mean, help from your Kingdom has come," Niel said, staring at us in turn.
"We'll get out of here as soon as we can, the three of them... Already very experienced in managing a territory, the three of them are actually our personal servants since childhood," said Haruki grabbed a piece of meat and put it on his plate.
"But your servants seem to disagree... I mean, look at their faces," said Niel, holding my head back to look at the bowed Tsubaru with a blank look.
"I, as Captain, forbid you to travel anywhere until the next few seasons," Daisuke said, followed by the sound of spoons clashing with each other.
"Your Majesty, ask me to keep you here. He wants you to stay here under the supervision of the four of us" Daisuke said.
"Don't think of running away, because the spies I have are scattered everywhere, and should be remembered... Sixth, the Vice-Captain I have, is still roaming freely out there," Daisuke continued, putting two spoons in his hand, raising both his arms crossed in the chest.
"You must have planned various plans to escape, right?" Tukas Daisuke returned as both fingers of his right hand moved gently massaging his head.
"We didn't do it, Dad ordered... It's absolute for us, if not... We may not meet you, Captain of the Sora Kingdom," Haruki glanced at Daisuke.
"Prince Takaoka Haruki, the genius Prince who will utilize all means to achieve his goal. Ambition, strength, mixed intelligence, made a lot of nobles who fell to him even though he was still young."
"Princess Takaoka Sachi, his cleverness made a royal concussion at the age of three years. Various foods, tools that he had never thought of made so easily. The news of his cleverness even made all the Knights guarding the border have to work twice as much because there are so many enemies who want to kidnap him."
"And Prince Takaoka Izumi, the clever Prince who always pretends to be. Although still young, he has mastered a lot of martial arts from all corners of the world. And also..."
"Stop it," Izumi said directing her gaze at Daisuke.
"Are you done, Captain? Opening up our information in the presence of newly joined allies, do you think it's appropriate?"
"I will even sell your information to the enemy if you don't obey my orders" he said in response to Haruki's words.
"Heh, so it's like this... The captain of the Sora Kingdom did his duty? So like this, how to make a lot of enemies not warty?"
"Your Majesty, entrust her children to me. So, I'll do whatever it takes to keep her kids safe, though... I have to lock them all up" he said, chiming in on Haruki again.
"You're too much Uncle" I said, directing his gaze to me.
"We will not escape. After all, Uncle helped us all this time, how could we let go of Uncle... I mean, Uncle's strength as Captain helped us a lot" I told him.
"Looks, I just got it... Why are there so many Knights in the Kingdom who have fallen to you, Princess," he said, looking back at me.
"Is that so? But sorry Uncle, I don't understand... What are you talking about" I smiled back at him.
"We're doing it for your own good, so... Just do as the King commands," he said with a few breaths.
"As my sister said, you're just overreacting, Daisuke," Haruki said smilingly looking at Daisuke.
