Even though it was the beginning of February, the temperature in the desert city of Brandtling was still high. When everyone followed the doorman who led the way, they walked into the huge vestibule full of various plants and flowers. Alicia could clearly see a little sweat oozing from Fabiano's cheeks, and she wondered if he was hot or if he was overly nervous.

In general, this is a good thing, much better than Fabiano's expressionless and indifferent face.

Whether it's Elicia, Sophia, or William, they all make simple makeup, so that people can't recognize them at first glance. And the costume props were kindly provided by Cecilia - some kind of magical mask, originally designed by the girl to maintain the skin, but she didn't expect it to have the effect of a natural mask, which can change a person's appearance in a small range.

Hawkers, anyway, it's not once or twice in this girl's hands, so there's no need to make a fuss.

The Glion family is an important nobleman in the Roland Empire, not to mention Alicia and William, as the princess of their country and the future queen, it is impossible for important members of their family to recognize Sophia. So Sophia put away her fan, relaxed like the blonde girl next to her, and pretended to be the daughter of a little nobleman who had never seen much of the world.

Therefore, at first glance, Fabiano's support group was composed of a group of civilians who could be seen everywhere on the road and the children of small nobles whose presence at large banquets was infinitely close to zero, so it was no wonder that the head of the guard just now was not very optimistic about everyone.

Once inside the mansion, a butler took over the task of leading the way. He led Alicia and the others to a richly decorated living room, bowed and motioned for everyone to sit down at will, and then said, "Please wait here. The lord still has some business to take care of. He will not come to you until he is done. ”

Fabiano nodded lightly and said, "Ah, it's okay. We didn't have a reservation and came to visit without permission. ”

"That's fine. I'll arrange for the servants to serve you tea. ”

The tea was a good black tea, and the refreshments were very delicious cakes, and everyone except Fabiano, especially Alicia, ate them very happily. But. That's not a reason for the Glion family to let everyone sit in the hall for more than an hour.

After drinking the tea from the cup in one gulp, Alicia sighed deeply and leaned back on the sofa and said, "Obviously, we have been released pigeons. No, it's better to say that the other party is deliberately giving us a disadvantage. It's just that the effect of Ma Wei doesn't look very good......"

"Another plate of cakes!" said Aya, holding up the porcelain plate, excitedly to the sweaty maid who was standing next to her.

The poor maid was about to cry with a sad face: "Okay, okay, please wait." ”

Icarus and Mercury Lantern are both Alicia's signature retinues, so the little queen didn't bring them this time; Although they are famous, they have never been photographed by reporters, and Asami Ba became the first choice. And from the current point of view, this is indeed a very correct choice - at least this little black dragon has eaten more than fifty cakes and drank three pots of black tea, which is definitely enough.

[I've been eating non-stop since just now.] Do you think of this as a buffet shop? But I'll still say one thing, GoodJob!]

Seeing that it was clear that she was going to continue to eat, the maid fled the living room with a puzzled look at her little belly, which had no sign of bulging at all. It seems that he reported to his boss.

You should be there now. It didn't take long for Alicia to think about it. The door to the room opened again, and an uncle in his fifties with flaxen-colored natural curly hair walked in slowly with a strong coercion, which made Fabiano and the others shudder.

"Hey, uncle, where's my cake?" asked Kaya as she lifted her plate and blinked curiously.

The powerful coercion disappeared in an instant, and after a slight "click" sound, the uncle sat down on the nearby sofa with his waist covered in pain.

Sophia desperately covered her mouth with her right hand, and Alicia unceremoniously showed a squirting expression, leaning her head on the shoulder of the natural dumbness next to her, and slammed the sofa hard.

Seeing this, Michelle couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong with you, Sister Ellie?" Could it be that I just ate so much cake and ate my stomach?"

"Poof——!!" Alysia and Sophia couldn't help but squirt out in unison when they heard this.

The uncle's face was so blue that it was almost black, and he waited for a long time to breathe before coughing vigorously and said in a deep voice: "First meeting." Young people. My name is Schlein Glion, and I'm Karina's father. Who among you is Fabiano Dick?"

Fabiano, who was named, immediately stood up from the sofa respectfully and said, "It's me." ”

Schrein looked the young man up and down, and rarely showed an expression of disgust, but nodded slightly - after all, Fabiano is still very handsome, and with the tempering in the Garden of Hope over the years, his temperament has also been greatly improved, and he can be said to be a talent.

"Well, I see. No wonder that girl has a crush on you. Schlein stroked his chin and said lightly, "However, maybe you will do something great in the future, but I still have to say that you are not worthy of Karina now." I'm sure you also know the gap between our two families, so give up early. ”

Fabiano opened his mouth and was about to speak, when Alicia, who was wiping her tears and leaning on the sofa in an extremely lazy posture, preemptively said: "In other words, in your eyes, the most important thing is the right person, right?

Whose girl is this, whether it is behavior or speech, it is rude! Shi Rain couldn't help frowning, and his tone became much more severe: "The character of the other party is naturally very important. However, no matter how good the character is, if the difference in identity is too great, I won't agree to anything. ”

"I heard that Uncle, your youngest son has been in a hot fight with a civilian girl recently, why don't you object?" Alysia ignored Fabiano's secret gesture next to her, and continued with the corners of her mouth curled. "Or do you just tell him in advance to have fun casually, and then go to find a noble daughter when you get married?"

Li Huayin, who was next to him, suddenly turned green when he heard this.

[Ahh If it weren't for Fabiano's here today, I really wanted to tease her again. 】

This damn girl...... Wait a minute. What if this wasn't her mouthful, but deliberately provocative? Schlein, who was about to get angry, instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and looked at the blonde girl opposite him with a very cute undisciplined expression and said, "Of course not." Marrying a daughter-in-law and marrying a daughter are two different concepts, even if the woman's conditions are not very good, Jebutan already has his own business, so there is no problem, but Karina is the pearl of my palm, and I can't just give her to someone who can't give her any security. ”

"I see. You're just worried about whether Karina will be happy in the future, and you're not just looking down on people with low status. Alicia nodded in satisfaction, and Schrein was shocked to find that she was quietly relieved by the girl's action. "That's easy to say. Fabiano is actually a remarkable character, he used to defend a classroom window alone during the attack on the Hope Garden in his first year, and fought off a large group of evil spirits with his classmates around him, and in his third year, he successfully qualified for the Reze Cup (Schlein's eyes lit up when he heard this), and the venue of the competition happened to be in the Tantaroa Grand Canyon. I don't need to say what happened in the canyon that year? ”

"Are you really talking for me, how do you feel that last sentence is hurting me?" Fabiano finally interjected.

Schlein coughed twice and interrupted the daily routine that the two were about to begin: "Hmm. Very good indeed. But I still can't give Karina to you. According to my investigation, you seem to have a fiancée who is a childhood sweetheart, right?"

[Here it is, here comes the most critical question!]

Fabiano rubbed the top of his head slightly embarrassed and pointed to Cecilia next to him and said, "Well, you're right. She's my fiancée, Cecilia Robin. ”

This girl should be your wife, right, is it really okay to bring her with you to find Xiao San!? Shi Leyin was embarrassed and looked at the two of them with a thunderbolt, and finally said with an unkind face: "Are you playing with me?"

"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. Fabiano hurriedly waved his hand and said. "Actually, it was Seya who offered to come along. ”

Cecilia explained in time, "Since I am friends with Karina, I also hope that she can return to the academy to continue her classes. ”

Do you dare to be more harmonious in the Shura field between you!? Schlein weakly put his hand on his forehead and sighed: "Am I old?" I always feel that my thinking can't keep up with today's young people. Girl, you know what he's here for, right?

"When Karina took the initiative to approach Xiaofa, I once told her in private that I had acquiesced. ”

Schlein sighed deeply and rubbed his temples and fell silent, and only after a long time did he speak: "I'm sorry, I still can't agree." And this is ridiculous, I will never allow Karina to be a side room for someone else! Not even His Majesty the Emperor, let alone a young man like you who has not yet started a career of his own. ”

Fabiano nodded and said in a deep voice, "Of course, I understand. But at the very least, let us meet her, shall we?"

"It's not right to be soft here, Fabiano. Under Schrein's frightened gaze, the blonde girl languishingly squinting on the sofa suddenly stood up, walked up to a handsome black-haired teenager, patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "And you see, even if I don't come to be a junior for this guy?"

"Don't use your discipline and floor level as a yardstick, hey!"

"It's okay, I'm sure you'll cherish both of them seriously, right?"

"Of course...... Aren't you deliberately trying to make me amuse!?"

William smiled bitterly not far away, twisted his face to the side and pretended not to see anything.

Before the atmosphere in the living room completely became normal, Schrein clapped his hands lightly and said solemnly: "If you don't have a marriage contract." Maybe I'll agree. But there are no ifs in everything, and since you have a marriage contract, then it is naturally impossible for me to agree. After meeting Karina. Everyone, please come back. ”

This is going to be an eviction order. Alicia hurriedly gave Sophia a look, and the latter immediately took out the exquisite folding fan from her waist in understanding, tore off the mask attached to her face, opened the fan and half-covered her mouth and smiled: "Ahhh Uncle Schlein, I would like to ask you to return to the academy and see how they get along before making a decision. After all, he categorically rejected people without knowing Fabiano at all. Even Karina's father would have been too arrogant to do so. ”

"Huh, hey, Ahh

"Don't you know. Fabiano, Cecilia, and I were classmates at the Garden of Hope, and good friends. Sophia smiled and continued to quietly pressure the cold sweating uncle, "I guarantee that Fabiano is definitely a person who cherishes the girls around him very much, you might as well give him a chance to come and see for yourself by the way." ”

"But, but Her Royal Highness the Princess. You're going to make it hard for me......"

The pink princess turned sideways slightly, and made a gesture of please to William, who was speechless and sore not far away. After the latter shook his head and sighed, he pulled off his mask and introduced elegantly: "This handsome man is named William Kigamensius, and he is the richest and most handsome man in my and Fabiano's society. He's here to cheer Fabiano on, isn't he?"

If I shake my head, you and Alicia will definitely rush up and bite me to death on the spot, that look is too terrible, hey! William quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded to Schrein with a smile: "Hello." ”

"Hello. "It's definitely not an ordinary person who can let the princess make an introduction," Schrein asked with a little confusion while changing the honorific language, "May I ask if we have met, I always think I have met somewhere in your appearance and name......

"Oh, I think it's in newspapers, magazines, and crystal screens. William couldn't help but clutch his head and sighed. "Because I am the current emperor of the Tanzanian Empire. ”

There was a crisp click, and Schlein sat back on the couch with his waist covered in pain again.

And that's not all. Seeing the smile on Sophia's face, he couldn't even hide the fan, turned around and pointed to the little girl who had been seriously concerned by Schlein before, and raised her voice and said loudly: "And this one, well, is the number one cute, mascot and representative of our club, and the initiator of the activity who proposes that everyone come together to cheer for Fabiano today." ”

The little queen happily ripped off her mask to reveal her peerless beauty, sat down beside Ilya and raised her hand to beckon, "Yo, fortunately, Uncle Schlein, my name is Alicia Harris." Don't listen to Sophia's nonsense, our group is actually just here to make soy sauce. ”

The poor uncle decisively pumped over.

————————————————————I'm the dividing line————————————————

More than twenty minutes later, everyone saw Karina, who looked a little haggard, in the living room. Obviously, this stubborn eldest lady was very unhappy with the fact that she was locked up in her home, so she must have taken many extreme measures to demonstrate to her family - such as hunger strikes and hunger strikes and hunger strikes......

Well, I guess she can't think of any other way to do it.

However, after seeing everyone, the gloom on Karina's face immediately disappeared, and she ran over happily and said, "Why are you here? Is it because I didn't go to the academy and was worried that something would happen to you?"

"We're here to pick you up. Alicia squinted her eyes and glanced at Glain next to her, who didn't know what to do, "On top of that, we've also helped you gain the right to interact with Fabiano, albeit only temporarily - as long as Fabiano shows that he doesn't care about you at all, then the game will go straight to the Badending." How's that, happy?"

"I—I'm not glad about it!" Karina snorted vigorously as she shook her trademark ponytail over her face, "but for the sake of your efforts, Miss Ben will reluctantly accept this guy's strategy." I'm just doing my duty as a nobleman, and I don't mean anything else. Don't let any strange misunderstandings arise!"

"Obviously, I was so excited that I was going to die...... Tsundere is really tired. Alicia smiled meaningfully, stared at the uncomfortable Karina, and said silently in her heart.

Don't think about yourself either!

When Karina entered the girls' circle and began to chat warmly, Schlein, who had finally gotten rid of the double coercion of Alicia and Sophia, beckoned Fabiano to the corner, looked at the young man in front of him with a complicated face and said seriously: "Since the three gods present are optimistic about you, then I won't say anything more." Karina is my only daughter, and I don't want her to be wronged in the slightest. Can you do that?"

"Tell you the truth, my lord. I still don't know what I can do in the future. Fabiano honestly admitted, "Perhaps Her Highness the Princess, their discerning eyes could have spotted my talents, but I still don't realize it." So all I can assure you here is that I will cherish and treat Karina and Seya fairly, that's all. ”

“...... That's enough, too. Just let me see how many pounds and taels you have. (To be continued......)
