Princess Lyn: Fleeting Dreams

It"s already 11, so far there doesn"t seem to be any movements made by the enemy. However, Rhys knew better than to let his guard down. The Rokojous are indeed suspicious since their arrival here, Rhys has carefully been watching each members movements, greeting certain lords only and carefully watching the guards that have been stationed insides movements. If he wasn"t able to remain beside Lyn, he would have been on the sidelines and wouldn"t have been able to observe clearly.

Even if things are going smoothly now, the next few minutes till midnight up until now are crucial. As Lyn"s temporary aide, he couldn"t simply leave the room without being noticed. However, he sends a signal to Yuzuhara and Beth who were in disguise; it"s too quiet and the fact that it"s already a sign that something will happen.

Although he can"t leave the room, that doesn"t mean he cannot go to the surrounding areas, like the balcony. So far so good, to the point that it"s suspicious beyond belief. Rhys pulled out his pipe and took a deep exhale, as he recalled the dance he shared with the Princess earlier. That girl

"May I stand next to you knight-dono?"

His thoughts broke off when he spotted the young rokojou princess. "Go ahead."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"My, the second Princess sure dance splendidly just like the rumors say."

Rhys sighed, "You noticed, huh?"

"Of course."

Although she took a break earlier, when he didn"t see her dancing with Prince Zenith, he slipped out and noticed her in the roof area of the west side alongside his master. The entire time Rhys thought," they do look perfect together." But it"s that perfection that"s a problem at the end of the day.

Rhys recalled Lyns words. "Don"t tell Zenith that I from the start remembered everything, don"t tell him that I know." Don"t tell him, huh, that"s fine he can keep a secret or two. But eventually won"t he find out, anyway? Lyn when that time comes he wonders what she will do. If, if she by chance were to ask him for help then, then he would do so. Because they are not connected by something simple.

"So you like rumors Princess Celica?" Rhys reached out for a cup that the waiter was offering him.

Celica does the same, "It is for my own personal amus.e.m.e.nt, yes. But I do pay better attention to the ones regarding the Princess." Celica trails off, "Especially regarding her little love affair with Prince Zenith."

Oi oi, doesn"t that just prove she is a gossip? But rumors like that are circulating after all, huh. Well, considering how they danced with each other just now, and the ball announcing the Prince decision on the engagement. Rhys supposed something like that is bound to keep people curious.

However, "The two are not lovers," he mumbled. Though honestly, Rhys didn"t know what their relations.h.i.+p was.

"That"s not what it looked like to me."

She saw that, huh? "Dear me, even though I was slyly trying to slip out of this topic."

"It appears as though sir knight-dono is quite versed in lying. I wonder exactly how long you"ll be able to hide it though, the extent of their relations.h.i.+p with each other," Celica said with a smile. Although she was smiling, Rhys could sense the sinister meaning behind those words. Despite that, he thought of her words, "forever" he hopes. But it"ll eventually come out won"t it?

"It appears as though Knight-dono is quite fond of her. I often see the two of you together in town.."

Oi hold on a second, the areas they go to in town are... His gaze dimmed, is she hinting at something? Rhys noticed that the atmosphere is becoming sinister, and yet he remained calm despite it all. "A knight having unrequited love is something that frequently happens, no?" Rhys answered.

He isn"t her knight, but it"s not like Princess Celica has to know that.

"So you admit it at least?"

"Men tend not to deny their feelings towards the girl they love. Princess Celica, do you understand that?"

"How rude. Even I," Celica suddenly leaned closer and brushed her lips against his neck, "... understand men quite well. Shall I show you, exactly how much.."

Ohoho? What"s this is she trying to seduce him? He supposed most guys would probably be lured in by a young girl pressing their bodies against them. She"s good at this, and indeed she isn"t a wholesome 17-year-old. Before her lips met his though, he placed his hand on her lips, "My bad, I have no interest in girls two years my junior."

He is interested in a girl who is three years his junior, though.

At that reply, the young Rokojou Princess cheeks flamed yet she calmly backed down, "I see, the men that surround her are indeed loyal without a doubt. But I wonder how much longer can that girl take it, your so-called loyalty. Remember this knight-dono, uniting the three sides will not be easy and even if she does. Your loyalty can drag her down," with those words said the blonde hair girl left him alone in the balcony.

What an idiot, did she not realize that she basically admitted that she was involved? But... "I know, I"ve known for a long time," he whispers as he glanced up at the starry skies.

He"s known for a long time now, that"s why it doesn"t make a difference now. Lyn, this world she wants to save is both beautiful and cruel. But regardless of what it is, we will save it.

His thoughts broke off when he felt somebody collide at his back. Rhys turned around, "Clumsy girl."

Lyn laughed, "I wanted to surprise you."

"Where"s the food?"

"Allen spotted me, so he casually asked his servants to bring food over. It should come soon."

"I see," Rhys mumbled. That doesn"t surprise him. The fiance always seems to be watching Lyn; it"s a good thing that she is clueless. If she were to notice, then he would stand no chance at all.

"Ah, I do have this, though! Barbeque," Lyn extended her hand out and Rhys bent down to eat it.

"Is it yummy Rhys?"

"Yeah."

She"s cute, Rhys bent down and stole a quick kiss from her.

"Why are you turning red? This isn"t the first time I"ve kissed you."

Lyn blushed and hit him, "It"s obviously because you caught me off guard stupid. Moron, idiot."

Her vocab is expanding. His gaze softened, "This might be the only time he will spend with her in a while, he should make use of it." Rhys reached over for her hand, "Let"s take a walk, Princess."

"Okay."
