Seirei Gensouki's
Chapter 208: To Rodania
After saying goodbye to Satsuki, Liselotte and Charlotte Rio set off for Rodania on the magical Restoration ship, she waited for a while in the assigned room until she was summoned to the princess sister's room, she said, when she entered the room and sat down on the sofa she thanked them for the invitation, Christina said that it was mysterious how it felt as if they barely spoke during their stay in the capital Galarc because during the trip, it was normal for only the three of them all the time, he said, Flora said she felt the same way, Rio felt the same way and commented on how he couldn't take off the magic tool that changed his hair color when he wanted to relax now that the trip was over, Christina said that she also felt that she was returning to her previous trip, Flora agreed.
Now Christina said that there were some things she needed to talk about before arriving at Rodania and asked Rio if he would accompany her for some time, Rio accepted, saying, Christina asks about bringing Miharu and Sara's group to the Galarc capital, she wants to know when she will meet them again and their whereabouts, that if possible he wants to meet again with Sara's group and thank them again for their help during the trip, Rio explained that they are living in another stone house in the forest near Rodania, where they live, it was because she knew where she could contact them the day after arriving in Rodania, but in the case of Sara's group because they were important girls in certain minority groups, she said, they try as much as possible to avoid involvement with politicians, that if they cannot avoid those people, it will be difficult to meet them directly, he said, Christina said she understood and asked if it was impossible to talk to them a little at least during the trip back to Galtouc or at Rio's mansion in Rodania, Rio agreed, Christina said she would make arrangements as well to help them avoid getting involved with others if they went to Rodania, Rio thanked her for her consideration and said he would contact her if Sara's group showed their faces.
Christina says that next about Celia and Rio asking how about her, Christina says she thinks they should tell her that she and Flora know Rio's real identity as well and asks if she agrees, she said, Rio said that it would definitely be difficult without sharing their circumstances with him, Christina said she did not mind setting up a place with just four people to talk about it, that if it seemed impossible, it was impossible, he and Flora could talk to Celia alone and afterwards the two could discuss anything together, they decided to establish a place with only four people after arriving in Rodania and if that could not, Rio would talk to Celia alone.
Now Christina says she needs to talk about Rio's gift, Rio who noticed that Christina suddenly became nervous said with a troubled face that making a decision without thinking enough about it would only be troublesome and she did not really need anything, Christina thanked him. for thinking like that and being attentive and saying that the situation this time was troublesome, Rio asked if as Francois said if he did not give something that could be shown to the surroundings then it would not work, he said, Christina said it was part of her reasoning and admitted that she was urged by the Restoration nobles to offer her a wife from the ruling family, Rio admitted that it would certainly be troublesome if he was given a woman, Christina said that as expected it was troublesome, while sighing deeply, Christina said, Rio said that it was a reasonable thing to try to politely reject her, though, Christina said that she understood that it bothered her but it would be even more troublesome later if she did not talk about this now and apologized for it.
Rio said he did not need to apologize and told her to continue, Christina explained now that Huguenot was concretely pressing in particular, Rio asked if she was offering a girl from her house, Christina admits that she offered her first daughter, but she also thinks that it was a completely impossible engagement with what Stead did to her so she hopes to make an excuse to turn it down, Rio says he does not know if the Huguenot princess is evil or not but he does not want to accept her, Christina says she will tell Huguenot that she refused the engagement, that he will be back for now, but he also warned Rio that Huguenot will not just be quiet, that if she had the chance she would bring it up again talking about marriage if she met him again after some time.
Christina explained the importance of polygamy for a noble family head is how to keep as much as possible the family duties reserved for the main branch and the dependable retainers, that there are those who argue can leave such duties in the hands of branch families, in order that there are those who have just taken wives as well but in the future because of politics they need to take others, he said, but she also thought that the noble who wanted one wife just wasn't too much, Rio thanked her for her explanation, Christina asked if Rio was against polygamy, she said, Rio answered truthfully he was against it with a reluctant face.
Christina apologized in advance for the sudden question and asked if the disagreement was because she already had someone she loved, he also said that it was a disrespectful question so he didn't mind if he didn't want to answer it, Rio explained with a troubled face instead like that, that currently being in a relationship or married is something that maybe he can't do yet, that if he can be more confident in himself he hopes to try it , Rio then revealed how much he was not so sure whether a person like him who was chasing and fulfilling his revenge would really be able to get married, she said, taking the happiness in her hands and answering the feelings of those around her, that it was a matter of if she could dispel those feelings, Christina and Flora were now just staring fixedly at Rio's expression, Christina said she understood in a stiff voice, Rio apologized for making the atmosphere weird while smiling wryly and Christina said it was her fault for making a weird question.
A few hours later the magical ship finally arrived at Rodania, a port full of nobles who wanted to ensure the safety of Christina and Flora, after hearing their welcome words, Rio, Christina, and the other members of the city, Flora and Huguenot boarded the train to the main headquarters of the Restoration.
Before boarding the carriage, Rio looked towards the crowd that was looking for Celia but she was not there, he thought that Aisia should immediately be aware of her approach and be able to speak telepathically, then the voice of Aisia welcoming her return entered her head, when Rio replied.she came back, Aisia explained that Celia wanted to go see him, Christina and Flora but she was unable to cancel her lesson, Aisia explained that Celia wanted to go to see him, Christina and Flora but she was unable to cancel her lesson, Rio said that he himself will go there now and he will wait until the lesson ends, Aisia says she will do so tell Celia, Rio told Aisia to share the information while they wait, Aisia said, Aisia said she wanted to report something that happened while she was away, Rio said he had already heard that Celia saw Reis in Rodania while she was in Galarc kingdom, aisia said that they did not tell everything to the Restoration people, when Christina saw Rio's serious face hearing that she asked if something happened, she said, Rio said it was nothing and told Aisia telepathically to tell the story in detail while she was traveling.
