Commoner’s Street is the name of the street and is an area where commoners live. It is located on the east side of the Central Park, about a 10-minute walk from the entrance to flower park. Then it’s another 10 minutes to get to the store I want to go to. In total, I had to walk for 20 minutes.
Of course, you can also use a horse-drawn carriage, but it is not recommended to go to the common people’s area within walking distance, even if you are in the aristocratic area. Basically, commoners usually travel on foot, and it is often the nobility who use horse-drawn carriages, even for short distances. Just as some aristocrats are averse to setting foot in a commoner’s town, commoners still tend to shy away when aristocrats come.
Although this tendency is much less common than it was 10 years ago, it’s probably inevitable that it persists.
Of course, we too headed to the store on foot. Along the way, we walked side by side with Ryniel-sama, exchanging conversation.
「Have you ever heard of two rainbows?」
「Two, you say?」
「That’s right. There are two types of rainbows: main rainbows and secondary rainbows. The secondary rainbow is very faint and light, so it can only be seen when conditions are good.」
「Well, it’s not easy to see, is it?」
「Yes, so it is said that if the conditions coincide and you are able to see it, good luck will descend upon you.」
It was a good thing that we were able to have a lively conversation, as if it was a lie that I had been reluctant to do so before I arrived, but I couldn’t help but feel itchy about Ryniel-sama’s gentlemanly escort.
Our conversation is more lively because we are talking about things that women would be interested in talking about. The path I take is shaded as much as possible, and if I enter a busy street, he casually guides me to protect me. My lack of dating experience may not be convincing, but in the 25 years since I was born, I have yet to receive such a perfect escort. A normal lady would not feel any discomfort and would take it for granted as something comfortable.
My relationship with Ryniel-sama has been less than four years from the time he was deputy commander of 1st Unit to the present. During that time, I had never been treated this way and always maintained a certain distance from them in my work, so I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable. And most of all, I can’t help but wonder why he is single when he is so good with women.
Even though he is the fourth son, he is the son of a Count family that has produced knights, and he is currently ranked as the captain of the Queen’s Kingsguard. He is a reasonable, sensible, and fair person, and although he has some nervousness, there is nothing wrong with his character. I definitely think that Ryniel-sama is better than Raul, but what are the ladies of the world doing, it’s shameful that they leave such a good property unattended. No, perhaps he has a ridiculously high ideal and has a hard time finding a woman who meets his expectations. That reason makes more sense.
「Is there’s something on my face?」
「No!」
I accidentally stared at his face, which made Ryniel-sama suspicious of me.
「Well, I was wondering if you were wearing your hair down today…」
That’s why I was in such a hurry to find it. But I’m not lying. He usually wears his hair all back, but today he wears his hair down, so his atmosphere looks softer than usual.
「Your atmosphere is very different, so it’s kind of strange…」
「Ahh, because we’re in private now. Is that strange?」
「No way. I’m just a little unfamiliar…」
It’s not only your hair that I am not used to, but all that attitude of yours today. I can’t speak to that. And being in private is different. It’s an order from Myra-sama called a request. I’m really sorry to make you go out with me.
「That’s good to hear. You are in a different mood today.」
「Yeah, Marie did my makeup this morning.」
「It looks very nice on you.」
I was complimented with a smile that made the ladies melt.
I was about to say, “Marie’s skill is good,” but I held back. That would be too cute. Since he went to the trouble of giving me a compliment, I should have accepted it honestly, but I couldn’t help but twist it. I can’t honestly rejoice, I feel mopey and delicate, and I’m at a loss as to what to do.
「…Well, thank you.」
I had no choice but to say so in a safe manner, and Ryniel-sama gave me a slightly delicate look.
「…」
「…Hmm.」
My shoulders shook with a jerk at the gesture of Ryniel-sama thinking about something. I wondered if I had offended him with my attitude, even though he had been so attentive to me.
「I must say… You are a real pain in the ass.」
「Eh?」
I looked up fearfully and saw Ryniel-sama, who didn’t even hide a wry smile.
「You must be restless, right?」
「……I apologize for that.」
If they know, there is no use in hiding it. I nodded honestly.
「This is nothing for you to apologize for.」
「But…」
Straightforwardly and simply, that’s what Marie had told me, but not at all.
「I made a slight mistake.」
I did not understand what he meant by “mistake”.
「It was a brave move… wasn’t it?」
「Eh?」
「You don’t have to mind it, please.」
I’m curious because I don’t know what he was talking about when he said that. I have no idea what I did wrong and what I did bravely.
「Let’s change things up a bit, shall we?」
「Yes?」
I don’t know what to do anymore. I can’t keep up with the understanding of what Ryniel-sama says and does in earnest.
「I am ashamed to admit that I am not familiar with the Commoner Street.」
「Ehh, okay…」
It would never be something to be ashamed of. Ryniel-sama is a genuine aristocrat and the more knowledgeable he is, the more he stutters. Well, he probably have a map in his head at a glance, but he probably don’t know detailed information about stores and other places.
「I wanted to escort you in style, but unfortunately, I don’t think I can. So, would you be willing to escort me?」
「I’ll take care of… Ryniel-sama?」
「Yes.」
Would that be okay with Ryniel-sama?
It is true that I am definitely more knowledgeable than he is, and I was originally going to guide him to the store where we would buy souvenirs, so it would be easier if I said it would be easier, but I wondered if it would be okay in terms of the man’s face. I wonder if he was paying too much attention to me.
I stare at Ryniel-sama’s face thinking so, but he looks happy.
「I hope you enjoy it.」
Ryniel-sama, who took about half a step back, said so.
The smile on his face was familiar and different from the melting smile I had seen earlier, and for some reason I felt relieved and my shoulders relaxed.
「I understand. I’ll do my best.」
If that is what Ryniel-sama wants, I’ll do my best to accommodate him.
I will do my best, honestly and simply.
