"Knock knock—" Early in the morning, there was a dense knock on the door.

"Hello, Mr. Siegfried." The door was opened by the gray-haired old butler.

"Uh, hello. Is Otto there? "Anyway, he is also a child from a big family, and Siegfried still has some education in etiquette.

"I'm still sleeping...... Would you like to come in and sit down? Stepping out of the way, the butler revealed enough space for Siegfried to pass through.

In the past three months, Siegfried would also come over from time to time to disturb him, and the housekeeper who had become accustomed to it naturally invited the other party in.

Interestingly, not long ago, Siegfried learned about Otto's identity. However, he did not want to deliberately distance himself from the center, and Siegfried's attitude towards Otto was still the same as before. Maybe everyone in the Kaslana family is this kind of nervous guy.

"Well, please sit here for a moment, and I'll go prepare breakfast." Bringing Siegfried a cup of black tea, the old butler turned and left.

Sitting alone on the sofa in the living room, Siegfried crossed his hands in front of him, revealing a pensive look.

It's hard to imagine that Xing, who is usually heartless, would have such an expression, and if you want to ask why, it was all this morning.

He got up early to go out for a meal with the girl he hooked up with yesterday, but he was called to the head of the house.

Although he was very reluctant in his heart, this was his father after all, the current head of the Kaslana family.

When Siegfried pushed open the door of the main house and made his way to his father's study, the first thing he saw was the twin spears on the table—the Heavenly Fire Priest, the key of the gods that could burn all things.

During this conversation, Siegfried learns that he will inherit the throne of the head of the family and marry the holy daughter of the House of Shaniyat.

However, Siegfried also knew that this was just a choice made by the family for the sake of profit.

For the sake of the family, he wants to marry a woman he doesn't know at all, even if he usually cares about it, he can't accept it for a while.

Knowing that Otto was the supreme leader of the Mandate of Heaven, Siegfried came here with the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

The two heat-emitting weapons that he took out of his holster, Siegfried waited silently......

The sound of the door opening reached his ears, and Siegfried immediately raised his head.

Sure enough, Otto, who had finished washing, walked out of the back room.

Straightening his neckline, Otto saw Siegfried sitting on the sofa in the living room and the Heavenly Fire Priest in his hand at a glance.

"Congratulations, how does it feel to be the head of the house?" In a flattering tone, Otto walked over and sat down across from Siegfried.

"Heh~ Don't be sarcastic about me. To be honest, it doesn't feel good......" Pulling out a bitter smile, Siegfried tucked the two guns in his hands back into their holsters.

"Really? When I gave up the position of head of the house to Delissa, she was very happy. ”

"These two things are different!" Slightly excited, Siegfried patted the coffee table and stood up.

With his movements, the black tea on the table was scattered on the floor.

"Ah, I'm sorry!" Seeing his reckless move, Siegfried hurriedly lowered his head to pick up the broken ceramic cup on the ground.

"Don't worry about it, just leave it to Barrus later!" With that, Otto picked up the empty cup on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Tell me - what do you want me to do?" Sipping his tea, Otto stared at Siegfried.

“……”

"Why, can't you say it? Let me guess. ”

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Otto's eyes revealed a dangerous green light.

"For example, as a pawn in diplomacy, he intermarried with the Shaniyat family."

“！！”

"Oh, look at you, I should be right." Leaning back against the back of his seat, Otto looked lazy.

Unlike Otto's covert operation in the original book, in the case of this Karen not dead, he does not need to resurrect her through Honkai. For this reason, Otto does not need to protect Honkai as he did in the original book. This also reduces a lot of calculations, which makes him a lot more cheerful than in the original book.

In other words, the marriage between Siegfried and Cecilia was only decided by the two families, and Otto was not among them.

"Now that you know everything, help me figure it out! It's a woman I've never seen before......" Ziegfried looked at Otto with a look of earnestness.

"Is that so?"

Guessing that the object of Siegfried's marriage must be the saintess of the Shaniate family, Otto looked at each other with playful eyes.

Maybe Siegfried really didn't know the identity of the other party.

"Ah, I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do about it! Spreading his hands, Otto signaled that he could not do anything.

"How so? Aren't you a bishop, this kind of thing will soon be solved as long as you say a few words casually! ”

"No, no, no, you think things too simply~ Even as a bishop, I can't interfere in the private affairs of the other two families at will"

This is indeed true, but if he really wants to do it, this kind of thing is still very simple, and he actually wants to see Siegfried's reaction when he knows the truth of the matter.

"Ah, that's ......"

Like a salted fish that has lost its dreamland, Siegfried slumped on the sofa.

"Ale? It's Siegfried! Is there something to do here? ”

Just then, a yawning Karlian came out of the back room. Like Otto, she also saw the Heavenly Fire Priest in Sieg's holster for the first time.

"Congratulations on becoming the head of the house."

"Hehe, eldest sister, don't mention this matter."

As for the title of Kalian, after Siegfried knew that the other party's surname was also Karen Lanna, he naturally became the head of the eldest sister.

"Now, have you had breakfast?"

"No, I have something to do, so I won't bother" Rising from the couch, Siegfried hurriedly took his leave.

looked at Siegfried, who left in a hurry, his junior. Karen looked at Otto blankly and asked, "What's wrong with him?" Am I scary? ”

"He is troubled by the marriage of the reign, and the things decided by the family are not something he can resist"

"Marriage? Speaking of which, the two of us were also married as families in the first place. ”

“…………”

Leaving Otto's villa, Siegfried wandered around the residential area of the headquarters in a sullen and random manner.

Kicking the stones at his feet all the way, Siegfei, with his head down, turned into a figure head-on.

"Ah, I'm sorry! I didn't ......."

Habitually reaching out to stop the other party's waist, Siegfried's words of apology came to an abrupt end.

A faint floral fragrance ran down her nostrils and into her body, and the woman in front of her was undoubtedly Cecilia, who had a previous relationship.

"Good morning, Mr. Siegfried. Did you come out on your own as well? ”

"Ah, yes." Suddenly greeted, Siegfried hurriedly replied.

"Excuse me, when can you put me down?"

It was only at this moment that Siegfried realized that the posture of the two of them was really a bit ambiguous.

Previously, in order to prevent the other party from falling, he stopped the other party by the waist and hugged the other party, and Cecilia cooperated very well to stop Siegfried's neck.

Although this is all a knee-jerk behavior, it seems to be a bit embarrassing now.

"Ahem, I'm sorry...... I'll just let go. ”

Regaining his steady, Siegfried silently turned his head away.

Even if he has rich experience in the love field, as long as he is in front of the woman in front of him, he is as clean as a love novice.

[Is this what it feels like to be in love?] If it's a marriage...... No, recognize the reality, Siegfried. 】

Patting his cheek, Siegfried came to his senses from his fantasy.

"Do you want to go for a walk together?" When Cecilia learned from her father that she was going to marry the current head of Kaslana's family, Cecilia was not very happy.

"Ahh......h

Cecilia, who had a concern, did not notice the Heavenly Fire Priest in Siegfried's holster, and Siegfried, who also had a concern, did not notice the Saintess pattern on Cecilia's clothes.
