The Great Adventure In World Of Sword And Magic.
Chapter 09 - [ Duke's Daughter]

...CHAPTER 9 - DAUGHTER OF THE DUKE...

...◇◇◇...

The third prize was a basket of fruits from Uncle Thomas Alva's garden.

The second Champion's Prize was the best (worst) cuisine of Aunt Ryuela (she was known for her beautiful food with a suffocating taste).

Lastly, the First and First Champions..

Shake hands with Duke Arcane's noble daughter. Or can be called champion 1 will take Princess Duke around aka Dating with him all day. Dad was a jerk for not telling Mom. But it sucks that I'm the first champion with a missed point.

"Congratulations to you, Ren-sama," Princess Duke said shaking my hand cheerfully.

> Author: Sometimes certain characters will use the word greeting - the same, -kun, -san and there are Master, Kak, and so on. Which is now used Japanese accent and often found in nobility (in this story)

A warm smile came from Duke Arcane's daughter, Rosaline Fin Arcane.

He shook my hand with a happy face.

A girl 4 years older than me.

(I am 12 years old and 13 years old now)

She was as tall as I was, I gulped looking at her hand that shook me. It means I'm going on a date with him and taking him around the village tomorrow.

Guh.. It's impossible, right?

"Yes, thanks. Her Majesty Princess Duke." I try to calm down.

She smiled sweetly as I returned her smile.

.........

After the event ended, one village looked challenging. Everyone is waiting for me to talk.

"..." - ".Um..

Seriously deh. Why are you corrupting me? I'm innocent here?!

I broke out in cold sweat on the stage, now the audience is looking at me with a look that bothered me.

"Lia.." My words looked at Lia who crossed her arms. Face's upset.

"Hgm." He left after that. Oh no..

He ignored me. I glanced at Father, ah he stared at mother. I should have been the 1st champion, my eyes spoke like that when I looked at Dad. Dad pouted as if sorry.

Its bad.

"Ah, I have an appointment with Your Majesty. So. goodbye!!" I said straight off the stage and through the back lane.

I ran away from the villagers, especially the unhappy men. Wait, dad why did you run?! Mom is chasing too..

Damnit...

.........

I sat on the edge of my bed and daydreamed.

Today was a bit tiring, for my mentality and my body..

"Cappies ... Haa.." I said a heavy breath.

Especially I was being stared at madly by men who were my age and older than me. Then some girls I know especially Lia look at me like shit. Come on, what made me have to accept this?! It's not like I'm going to be a noble?!

Never mind. Mending Turu's..

Zzzz..

.........

Tomorrow..

...

..

.

.

"Married me!" Rosaline said with a blush.

"Eh??" I'm shocked.

.........

Back to 4 hours before.

I came to the designated place early before the promised time.

Then I arrived at the village square.

I saw the Princess there with her 2 bodyguards near the fountain.

"Rin-sama!" He said cheerfully when he saw me coming.

Tap Tap Tap

He came in a cute way of walking as the sound of his feet sounded. I mean he looks grown up.

"Your Majesty," I said giving a bow of respect to him.

I faced Princess Duke respectfully, but her face was pouting.

"Mohh, just call me Rosaline, Ren-sama." Said pouting.

"But I don't.." I said a bit nervously, I stared at the two somewhat sinister bodyguards.

You know the look of your guards is terrible?! If I don't do it, I'll be in danger?!

But he looked at me pouting. Um.. What should?

"Well, Rosa.line.." I tried to speak while not looking at the gaze of his bodyguard.

"Yes, Ren-sama," he said with great pleasure.

He smiled warmly.

Ugh..

"Let's take me around, Ren-sama," he said happily.

[ Rare Quest #1 "Take a tour around Princess Duke around Desa♡" given. ]

[ Accept? ]

Ugh. okay.. Bentar?? Why is there a love(♡) sign?!

Rosaline pulled my hands together, I inevitably nodded and dragged her away.

[ Quest accepted! There is no time limit! Please enjoy! ]

It seems I have received the Quest..

Then what the fuck with that inorganic sound?! Irritating!?

So I started guiding Princess Duke. Actually the 2 bodyguards were a bit annoying to me..

Because of the name above them..

[The Eyes of the Kingdom of Teuron. ]

Is this really okay? They're spies?!

"What is it, Ren-sama?" Rosaline pointed at the stall to her right of it.

"It was a bakery. Does Your Majesty want to go there?" I offered him to the bakery.

He puffed his cheeks, not being happy. His death..

"Uh, yes.. Rosaline-god.." I tried to turn my face away.

"Without, -sama!" Seriously said.

I nodded and tried to call him that.

"Rossiline.." I'm a little shy.

"Yes!" said smile.

So I took him to Pak Saiyam's bakery.

"Here we go! Our best melon bread!" Said Mr. Saiyam.

"Well!!" Rosaline looked very happy when she saw the melon bread. He looked at me as if asking 'this is edible?' Is this the first time he has eaten something like this??

Rosaline looked pleased and took it, I was also given by Mr. Saiyam as well.

Out of the bakery, Rosaline looked at the melon bread for a while and tried it.

"God!!" He said with pleasure, his blue eyes seemed to sparkle happily.

"Of course, this is the best bread here!" I said with pride.

Rosaline looked very happy and ate it happily until it ran out. He also asked for my bread, of course I love him.

"..." - ".Despite Rosaline's cheerful situation, I'm still distracted.

Because over time I feel claustrophobic with these 2 annoying bodyguards. Why would they do that. huhh.. Stop that suppressing gaze?!?!?

I find it ironic that I need to do something about both of them later.

.........

We've been around a lot of places for a long time, somehow the village feels like a city for a long time. Am I too flowery-minded because I feel the village is wider??

Whatever, the important thing is Rosaline is happy.

"So how, Rosaline? Are you happy?" I said eating rabbit satay while walking side by side.

"Yes! It's so fun! Thank you, Ren-sama!!" He said very cheerfully and enjoyed eating satay happily.

"Thank God, if you say that.." Smiling words.

But why do we stay away from the village for so long? I think we'll get to the other gate.

Our distance to the West gate was not long and another suspicious looking horse carriage was seen near the outside of the gate.

'Perhaps subconsciously, we were taken in by both.' Thought.

'Ahh. it's time yes..'

I thought it would be longer, but it's been over 4 hours. So I'll act now.

"Rossiline.."I looked at him seriously.

"Well, Ren-sama?" Rosaline said nervously, she swallowed her last satay.

I approached her until I could hug her at any time.

"Re,Ren-sama??"

"Sorry, for this.." I held him without delay.

"Dad!?" Rosaline screamed in surprise and looked at me in wonder with her face flushed with tomatoes as I carried her.

I embrace and hold Rosaline into my arms suddenly and hold her princess-style. Then quickly led him away from the 2 suspicious bodyguards.

"What?!" Said Guard A surprised.

"Stop!!" Shouted Guard B.

Both of them were surprised and tried to chase after me. But since I was agile, I passed through the passageways and alleys that were difficult to pass.

Fortunately I memorized the path after hours of traveling. So I'm ready to do this.

Then I jumped from the top of the house smartly and ran away and made some distance with both of them. They were barely visible when I realized it.

Before, I made sure and it looks like they both made a sinister plan for Rosaline. Surely I found some people hidden from my vision, of course there was a square screen named and had the inscription "The man's ally and one" So it stood out..

"Ren-sama?" Rosaline's voice was so slow that it was not heard by me.

Rosaline's face turned red and she was confused in my arms.

"Ah, sorry. They're both suspicious so I'm taking you away." I said lowering her down, Rosaline came straight down from me.

"Ah.. Uh, Ah.. " Rosaline looked still confused, even though she had gone down. His face was very red and looked dizzy.

He seemed to be very confused and walked backwards.

Then, he accidentally stepped on a pothole and was shocked.

"Eh?" He flinched and would fall backwards.

"Rosaline??" I was shocked when he was about to fall and catch her.

Instantly his face immediately reddened Tomato and looked at me blushing in embarrassment.

Blush~ Her face looks like a tomato, which makes me worry about her.

"I'm sorry, are you okay?" Said detach.

He nodded and looked silent with a reddened face.

"Rosaline?" I saw him who looked silent.

"...Uh? Huh yeah?" He looked conscious and looked at me.

"You all right? We're a long way away, too.." I'm worried if he's sick somewhere.

"Uh? I'm.." His face is getting red.

"Is anyone really sick??" I said worried, he's Duke's son so I'll have a problem if I hurt him.

We stopped somewhere I thought was safe. But Rosaline remained confused and just looked at me.

He stood up and approached me which made me spontaneously retreat.

"Rin-sama.." He said in a rather slow voice.

"Yes?" My words listened.

Then there was a pause before Rosaline spoke.

"..."

"..?"

He took a breath and looked at me with determination.

"Rosaline?" I wonder what he wants to say.

Then..

"Married me!" Say it with a red face like a tomato.

"Huh??" What did he say??

We're back to the beginning.

Its bad.
