Chapter 35: The Stubborn Fugitive and Lady William

The morning sun in the forest is very warm, because of the temperature difference effect felt by the cold overnight.

In the distance, there was a faint rooster crow, and human voices appeared in my ears.

Someone was calling her name, but she always deliberately added the words 'Her Royal Highness Princess' to the end of that name, causing Verian to wake up from her dream with a frown.

Unable to recall the somewhat chaotic dream, Verian rubbed her eyes and looked at the people around her as she adjusted to the sunlight.

"What's wrong?"

"Ask me what's wrong? Is Her Royal Highness really forgetful? We still have to go back to England. ”

"Of course I understand this, the question is weishenme where your hand is on my chest?"

This is......

Natsume paused and said a little unnaturally

"It's to get rid of the caterpillar on your chest......"

"Huh! Hurry up! Where! Where! ”

"Biedong!"

Faced with the fussy princess, Natsume took down the caterpillar as quickly as he could.

If you look closely, it turns out that it is just a silkworm, not a poisonous animal.

Still flustered, Verian took a few deep breaths to make sure the bugs were gone.

Verian does like to play around, and she loves animals, but she is a little resistant to the soft-bodied insects.

In the past, I was blamed by Royal Sister Limeia for such a character, but what can I do if I can't change it?

Besides, the princess is not omnipotent, and Verian is a little worried about the royal sister Limea, who often goes in and out of the British parliament all day long, and the royal sister Kelissa, who often competes with the knights.

Putting these concerns aside, Verian took off her coat now, feeling very cold for a moment, but after getting used to it, she became much better.

Natsume took his coat back, wrapped it directly around his waist, and pointed to the north and said

"Let's go in that direction, because from the previous map, there is a small city over there, get the supplies and leave by boat."

Natsume had no intention of moving on the sea with Virien, and even if she agreed, the princess would not easily agree to her approach.

Verian, who didn't know Natsume's thoughts, was lazy and somewhat unguarded against Natsume.

Spreading dirt on the almost extinguished fire, Natsume reconfirmed the direction and prepared to move forward, but her sleeve was pulled by Willyne.

"What's wrong? Want to go to the toilet? ”

"Don't say that to women! No, I just want to take a shower because ......"

Verian held the hem of her long skirt in her hand, and the skirt was covered with mud as she advanced through the forest last night, and the original green dress had turned into a gray dress.

This princess appeared in the media as the "image of the royal family" on official business, and will also be voted "the princess who wants to be married the most" in gossip magazines.

But for the British royal family, her role is only "like that".

Or as a bait for a political marriage, to disturb the interests of other dignitaries, so that the queen and her two sisters can take the opportunity to conclude a treaty favorable to Britain. Whether it is the standard etiquette of the royal family or the dignified behavior, she does her duty to complete these "official duties". Even in their own rooms, they wear clothing that is sufficient to perform the minimum of official duties at all times.

As a result, Verian cares deeply about her outfit, and her behavior has become a habit, even if it is so boring.

Natsume touched her chin, even if it was an order from Her Royal Highness the princess, Natsume wouldn't be able to complete it, even if she was asked to put on her own clothes after bathing in the stream, I'm afraid she would refuse.

In that case, Natsume snapped his fingers and said

"Can I touch you?"

"What! What kind of request are you? ”

Verian, who hugged her body, looked at the idiot with an expression, but it is estimated that she didn't know what the idiot was.

"No, no, no."

Natsume waved in denial, pointing to his clothes.

"The ability to manipulate water can also be used to clean it, but it has to be touched by yourself."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, it can make you smooth and smooth, clean and clean~"

Why do you think this conversation is so weird? It's your own delusion! Natsume thought so.

"If that's the case, it's fine, but that's just the clothes, the holes on it and the ...... of the body."

But Verion, who said these words, saw Natsume's bandage on her right hand and the wound on her body, which silenced her.

Forget it, Verian bowed her head at Natsume.

"I'm sorry for making such a stupid and stubborn request under such circumstances."

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay, it's a blessing to be able to be rid of by a princess."

"So, can you not always mention that?"

Perhaps believing that there was a gap and irony, Verian decisively ordered Natsume to stop calling herself 'princess' or 'highness'.

The stupid image of the 'runaway princess' was something that Willian didn't want to remember all the time.

After tidying up a bit, the two of them walked out into the forest.

At first, Natsume was worried that someone from the Spanish Star Sect would catch up, but ......

"The number of people who survived that situation should be ...... One percent bar......"

Having lost most of their combat power, they should give up, and the only thing to watch out for is the traps and attacks on the French side.

Out of the forest, a road carved out by the river appeared in front of the two men, and just then, an old merchant driving a carriage was slowly moving forward from the road ahead.

Running wildly all the way, after seeing the difficulty of Verian running with a long skirt, despite Vilian's objections, Natsume picked her up.

Vilian could hear Natsume's heartbeat, and Natsume could feel Vilian's warmth, and the two of them didn't say a word as they galloped, and finally caught up with the carriage at the end of a low hill.

"Can you excuse me?"

"Oh?!"

The old merchant stopped the horses, and behind him there was the sound of porcelain bowls colliding.

"You are? Where did the people come from? ”

"It's a lost traveler, because I lost things and food, can I go with you?"

"Well, I don't have any companions on the road, and even though this old horse has been with me for many years, it's always fun to talk to people."

Seeing that the old merchant agreed, Natsume hurriedly thanked him.

"And what about the young lady in your arms?"

"Ah, she, my wife."

"What?! No...... Hmm~"

"Don't make any noise."

Natsume whispered

"Maybe the word has spread about us, two people who don't know each other are traveling together or something, wouldn't it be more eye-catching if they were to be said? At that time, the possibility of being targeted will also increase, so it's not bad to pretend to be a couple, even if it's a loss for me. ”

Are you at a loss? Verian was dissatisfied with Natsume's words, no matter how she said it, she would suffer as a woman.

Even if it didn't insult her purity, it made Verian a little angry.

I thought he was a principled person, but I didn't expect it to be just a man who took the opportunity to play a scoundrel.

But Verian was very puzzled, because the fact that she was being held now made her feel a little relieved, whether it was the beating of her heart, the smell of the other party, or the movements of her body, everything seemed extremely real and stable, which made her want to fall into a deep sleep.

Everything had done so far had made Vilian a little tired, even if it was the princess's duty, and she was overwhelmed by too much pressure.

So, she thinks from the bottom of her heart

"It's nice to be attacked......"

"Well, did you say anything? How does it feel to be hugged? ”

"Not really!"

"Don't be angry, Lady William."

"Don't call me!"

In the eyes of the old merchant, it is estimated that this is a proof of affection, so the merchant smiled and drove his horse forward.

And in the distance, the outline of a city emerges.
