Princess' personal painter

Irene clutched her forehead in pain, and looked up at Sisyana with tears in her eyes, but saw that the girl's expression was turning black, and her tone was extremely bad: "I said, Irene, have you forgotten something?" ?”

"Hey, what?"

In a fit of rage, Sisyana grabbed the pillow from the bed and threw it over: "I've said it from the beginning, our long-lost date! Idiot, idiot, idiot..."

Xi Ya, you belong to me alone! (Four)

"If she knew that you and I came to a place like this, she would definitely want to kill me. I can even imagine the scene of her coming to the door with a knife..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't reveal your whereabouts."

"My dear sister... With your current outfit, it's hard not to expose yourself."

In order to find a suitable place for a date, Erin took Sisyana around the city and confirmed that all the shops in the commercial street were closed, there were no night performances in major theaters, and there was no place to hold parties and celebrations. And so on, even the aristocratic families who were holding the ball could not be found... To make matters worse, the Central Park in the city center just turned off the neon lights in advance to save money.

Although this era is advancing rapidly, there is still a long way to go before the truly modern city that never sleeps in Erin's mind... She reluctantly begged Sisyana to change the date to the weekend, at least during the weekend, the theater would be the only one. There was a performance all day long, but in the end Sisyana, who was playing with a small temper, looked resolute and angrily pulled Irene into the only building on the street that was still lit—and this happened to be for the subordinates. A bar served by mercenaries.

If I remember correctly, generally speaking, this kind of bar also has the functions of introducing hostesses and providing accommodation. It's pretty bad in terms of the above... If it were someone else, Irene could easily make up a beautiful picture book with a plot that breaks through the lower limit...

Uh... stop, stop, I'm a lily painter now!

So, Xi Ya, you are running around in this outfit of a dating girl, it really makes people unable to take back the desire to complain.If I had known earlier, I would have let you change back into normal clothes...

"You must be thinking strange things again!"

"I'm thinking about Siya's appearance when she was drunk last time."

The last time she got drunk... or the only time Sisyana had the chance to indulge herself in drinking before, she took Erin to "elope" to Morvia, and found a bar on a whim.Although there were some accidents at that time, as far as the result is concerned, the two people who were both seventy to eighty percent drunk ran to the suburbs, and under the witness of the stars in the night sky, they concluded an intimate relationship belonging to lovers, which can be said to be quite memorable up.

Sisyana puffed up her cheeks: "Otherwise, why do you think I dragged you here?"

Sensing the ready-to-move gazes from the drinkers around, Erin said with a sad face: "But, I don't want to make a fuss in the bar again... If Eunika knows that I have damaged your reputation, she really won't." I really don’t want to experience that feeling of being held around my neck with a sword.”

"I don't care anymore, what are you still worried about?" Sisyana said angrily, "Hmph, since just now, I've been mentioning her name all the time, how much do you care about her?"

"Obviously I'm afraid of her. So it's all your fault, Xiya. I want to get along with Unika, but she is angry at me for no reason, and every time my life is safe, I suffer from her. When threatening, you always pretend not to know..."

While talking, the waiter brought up the snacks Sisyana ordered just now and a jug of wine.Sisyana picked up the jug and filled both her and Irene's cups with wine.He squinted his eyes and stared at Irene, humming softly and said, "Don't think I don't know about you and Unika, she will only attack you when I see her, when you get along in private, she I can't be sure to listen to you much. You bastard, before I even realized it, you gave me the strategy of Unica, which I played since I was a child... You really think I don't know anything Stupid?"

Irene was taken aback for a moment, and quickly clarified: "Eh, wait? Xi Ya, you must have misunderstood something... Even when we get along in private, I am the one who is being bullied... Ah no, what I mean is , Those things were all done by Eunika on her own initiative, and I never took the initiative..."

"It's really an irresponsible statement."

Irene said wrongedly: "I want to resist, but I can't beat her..."

Unika's strength itself is not inferior to Irene, coupled with the fact that the assassin profession naturally suppresses the magic profession in close combat, and she knows Irene's weaknesses well... All kinds of factors add up to make Irene Always at a disadvantage when facing Eunika.

There is another question, which has always been hidden in Irene's heart. At this time, I finally have the opportunity to ask it cautiously: "Also, I always feel that Xi Ya, you seem to have acquiesced in something to her?"

"Suddenly ask me this question... Could it be that you are expecting something?"

Sisyana stared at Irene, a strange blush flashed across her face: "Could you be thinking now, maybe the three of you are together or something?"

"Huh? This..."

Before Irene could give an answer, Sisyana suddenly changed her attitude and spat viciously: "Forget the last sentence I said... drink with me!"

So, for the next period of time, Eileen drank with her lover in a delicate atmosphere.After each drink, Sisyana would take the initiative to fill the two glasses with wine... Obviously, the gentle and demure Princess Her Royal Highness in the eyes of the world is not good at drinking, and like last time, she has no magic power A plan to sober up.It didn't take long before the pair of sea-blue eyes were filled with blue waves, and a blush floated on the cheeks along with the fuzziness of the breath.

When Sisyana spoke again, she was half drunk: "Irene, as you said, I will always be your favorite person... Is this promise still valid?"

Irene was slightly taken aback, and nodded seriously: "It will never be out of date."

Sisyana swung the wine glass in one hand and rested her chin in the other, her eyes glowing brightly: "Irene's so-called 'favorite'...how much do you like it? Do you care what the world thinks of us?"

Suddenly asked this question, after hesitating for a while, Irene said softly: "I don't care what the world thinks of me, but I care about your reputation, Xi Ya... I don't want you to be criticized by the world ,so……"

"Now, I don't care."

Sisyana suddenly interrupted Irene's words, she stared at the person in front of her with some nostalgia, and poured out: "Yes, I used to have a lot of worries, and I would care about the world's evaluation... But I I have already figured it out, if I want to gain something, I will inevitably lose something else. If I don’t take that step bravely, I can only stop at the same place and stagnate forever..."

As she said that, as if she had made up her mind, Sisyana took a deep breath and solemnly asked, "Irene, I... want to marry you..."

Xi Ya, you belong to me alone! (five)

—Irene, I want to marry you.

These words, like a heavy bomb, stirred up huge waves in the depths of Irene's heart.After she stayed for a while, she finally realized, I... I was proposed by Xi Ya?

Rao, no matter how many sweet words she had spoken to Sisyana before, it was not as lethal as this simple and straightforward sentence.She felt that her body was bathed in Sisyana's scorching gaze, her body temperature quietly rose under the influence of alcohol, and even her consciousness began to burn.

So, about what happened that night, Irene almost only remembered this sentence.Although the follow-up was accosted by other drinkers as expected, Irene had to use force to take Sisyana away, and when Irene and the drunk Sisyana returned to the apartment of the Holy Concubine Magic Academy, From Fina's annoyed eyes... It seems that these are not so important. At that time, Irene only had that sentence in her mind.

—Irene, I want to marry you.

When Irene placed Sisyana on the bed, she clearly heard a slight whisper from the girl's mouth: "Irene, you belong to me alone..."

Perhaps only when she was drunk would she vent this strong possessive desire.

The next morning, when Erin woke up, she was surprised to find that her lover, who was drunk last night, had woken up before her at some point.There was still a lingering fragrance of hers on the pillow, but I didn't know where it went.Erin's thoughts were a little dazed, and then, a pillow hit her face.

"It's time to get up, heartbreaker!"

Fina is naturally the only person in this world who can speak to her in such a tone.Irene came back to her senses a little bit, and looked at her sister who was staring at her with fierce eyes in a little confusion.

I saw Fina humming and said: "Don't pretend to be innocent, last night you drove me to sleep on the sofa because of the woman you brought back from outside, I will never forget it in my life! When has the world ever been humiliated like this, let me tell you, I am super vengeful!"

Seeing her younger sister's hands on her hips and unwillingness to give up, Erin felt a little dizzy for a while.She rubbed her head, sat up on the bed, and asked, "Do you know where Xi Ya has gone?"

Fina was obviously taken aback for a moment, and then glared at Irene with even more ferocious eyes: "Wow, your first reaction was not to comfort me but to care about other women! You were the one who insisted on living with me back then , and changed my mind after only one night... Unforgivable, I want to break up with you!"

It was probably because she drank too much wine with Sisyana last night, until she stared blankly at Fina stomping out of the room, Erin's head was still a little dazed.She blankly recalled what her younger sister said to herself just now, and it took a long time before she realized——

Huh?Could it be that Fina is really angry?

After all, there is only one bed in the apartment, so she just let her sleep on the sofa all night, so she lost her temper... However, with her proud personality, it seems understandable to be angry, and she could bear it last night It's a miracle that it didn't happen... Oops, no, I actually made my sister angry and made her say that she wanted to break up with me. How can I make her change her mind?Ask for help, wait online...

After finally realizing the seriousness of the matter, Erin dressed in a panic and ran out of the bedroom. She saw that Fina was angrily packing up her textbooks, as if she was about to go out, and she didn't even plan to eat breakfast.Eileen trotted forward and hugged her arm, and begged in a humble gesture: "I just woke up and my head is not clear... Anyway, I know I was wrong, Fina, wait for me, let's eat together How about going out for breakfast?"

Fina asked with a straight face, "Do you know where you went wrong?"

Isn't this a sub question?It seems that my dear sister still intends to forgive me.Thinking of this, Erin blurted out: "You shouldn't let my dear sister sleep on the sofa, even if you want to sleep, I should go to sleep..."

"Snapped!"

Irene covered her cheeks in astonishment, staring blankly at the back of Fina going out in a fit of anger.Although the slap from Fina was very light, and it was just to express her extreme anger, Irene still felt sad for a while... After all, this was the first time that Fina got so angry at herself.

What, this is obviously a proposition!

I don't understand, I don't know why Fina is angry...

In this way, the marriage proposal from Sisyana and the inexplicably angry younger sister were like two stones in Irene's heart, which made her feel a little out of order when she was teaching the students.During recess, when Eileen came out of the bathroom after washing her face, she saw Nicky Aldridge holding the hem of the pleated skirt with both hands, but her slim figure stood timidly in front of her .

"Nicky...what's the matter?"

If it was Irene in the past, seeing her student and subject showing such a bullying appearance, she would probably not be able to help molesting her, but of course she is not in such a mood now.

Nikki's eyes flashed with concern, and she asked aloud: "My lord, today's state seems to be very strange... What's on your mind?"

Seeing Irene's hesitant eyes, Nikki asked again: "Shouldn't she be arguing with Sister Fina? I think she looks sullen today..." After a pause, Nikki's eyes flashed Meaning of anticipation, "Well... my sis, can you tell me something? Although I don't know if I can help, it should be useful even if I just tell the unhappy things..."

"There are a lot of strange feelings that I want to talk to, but I don't know where to start...Let's forget it."

Not intending to attach her troubles to others, Irene shook her head, and was about to turn around and leave, but unexpectedly, Nicki trotted up from behind and grabbed Irene's sleeve: "I see, my lord I am usually alone, and there is no one close to me in this academy other than Sister Fina... I will definitely not find someone to talk to at this time. Therefore, I am willing to be the one who listens!"

After a pause, stars appeared in Nikki's eyes: "Besides, Sister Xi Ya just came here yesterday, and today it has become such a strange atmosphere. Something must have happened between you... The three sisters are very concerned about the situation. They are very important people to me, if you don't mind, I really want to know..."

Irene is the current suzerain of the Principality of Silesia, Fina is the founder of the Principality of Silesia and its spiritual idol for a long time, and Sisyana was the most important role in helping Niki become the Grand Duchess at that time... Therefore, In a political sense, what Nicki said was not bad at all.Of course, the "very important person" that Nikki mentioned refers more to the emotional aspect.

In this way, it was somewhat impossible to refuse Nicky's kindness.Irene turned around, sighed softly and asked: "I just remembered that Xi Ya said to me last night, 'If you want to gain something, you must lose something else'... I seriously thought about it." After thinking about it, this sentence seems to have some truth, and it is more suitable for me. You should know a lot about me, right? I want to know, Nikki, do you think I am a little too much? Are you greedy?"

Xi Ya, you belong to me alone! (six)

In the evening when school was over, Irene and Nicky were walking along the quiet forest path in the academy, and two figures elongated by the setting sun loomed in the shadows of the mottled trees.When Nikki finished listening to Erin's story, she covered her cheeks in shock, and it took a long time to repeat stutteringly: "Knot, knot... knot married?"

"Yes, I was proposed by Xi Ya."

Erin, who said these words, was brimming with joy in her expression.After all, this is something I have dreamed of from the very beginning, although... ahem, it seems to be the other way around.At the same time, it was precisely because Sisyana was the one who proposed marriage, and Irene knew how much pressure she was under to say this, so the option of refusing did not exist from the very beginning.

But——Irene is very clear that it is a very despicable thing to mention a "but" at such a time. Obviously, she only needs to throw away all unnecessary worries and sincerely accept the happy ending that she has imagined countless times That's all right—but—just last night, Erin finally found out that she had become that despicable person—

"When I heard that sentence, I was really happy. The happiness seemed to burst out of my chest. I had no choice but to agree..."

"...But, I didn't."

At this time, Nicky had recovered from her shock with difficulty, and she said to herself, both excited and lost: "You two elder sisters really match each other. If you want to get married, I will marry you." Sincerely wishing you both, I really want to see the scene of your marriage with my own eyes... Well, although there is a kind of insignificant sadness..." She pursed her lips and felt melancholy for a while, then her thoughts finally returned to the right track: "For the two For my elder sister, after all, getting married is the most important event in life, so it's normal not to be able to answer all of a sudden... I believe Sister Xi Ya will understand you."

Irene shook her head and said with some disappointment: "However, even I don't know why I didn't answer her at that time... It has been more than a day now, and Xi Ya has never come to me , she must be waiting for me to go to her, I seem to let her down again. At that time last night, I was so close to happiness, but that happiness seemed to be limited to that moment. Now I can feel , because of the hesitation at that time, I have become farther and farther away from happiness..."

Nicki asked curiously: "Even my sister herself, don't you know why she hesitated?"

Irene said in a low voice: "If you want to gain something, you must lose something else. Even though she knew how much she would lose, she still asked me so desperately...but I failed her expectation. Ni Qi, tell me, am I mean?"

Nikki shook her head: "I think, my lord sister couldn't agree to her all of a sudden because she felt sorry for Sister Xi Ya, right? After all, if you really made it to that point... this will definitely be a big event that will be recorded in the annals of history , You must encounter many difficulties and obstacles, right? You really need to plan well."

"No, I think it's because I'm too selfish."

Irene said in a self-deprecating tone: "Speaking of which, I have made promises to many people, but there are very few promises that can be fulfilled. Even Fina's side is also included. Obviously, I promised to always be with her... If I finally choose Xi Ya, I may not be able to fulfill this promise. If you think about it this way, I am really a bad person..."

Nikki blinked her eyes and said, "My sis promised me back then that she would always protect me."

Irene was taken aback for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Well, I've let you down."

"Sister Xiya also said at the beginning that she would always be by my side and teach me... Then, before I learned the principles of governing the country, she had to go back because of the civil strife that broke out in Ruolin." With Irene's puzzled gaze, Nikki said softly, "In my eyes, you and Sister Xiya are the same kind of people... because you are too gentle to others, and you are always thinking of others, that's why Unknowingly speaking those gentle words... For me, even if I haven't seen my sister who is running around the world for a long time, Siya sister left me to protect her people, then For a while, I was the only one left to fight alone... But, I don't blame you at all. Really, I will remember the part of you who treated me well, and remember every little bit of getting along with you , follow your example and work hard..."

"However, this is indeed a breach of trust."

Nicki explained: "Because, my boyish older sister doesn't seem to know that for a girl, even just 'sweet talk' is enough. That... I can offer a suggestion, my older sister only uses Go and say to Sister Fina, 'You are my favorite person', when she hears this, even if she knows that you are lying to her, she will definitely feel happy, and then you can reconcile smoothly... ...Although this method should not be used frequently, it is still very effective if used once or twice occasionally."

"Huh? That..." Erin's expression became awkward, and she whispered, "It's not that kind of relationship between me and Fina..."

"Huh? If it's not that kind of relationship, what kind of relationship is it?"

Facing Nikki's innocent and curious eyes, Eileen felt her cheeks burn a little, and was speechless for a moment.I only heard Nicky continue to say: "I see, my sis must be afraid to pursue her own happiness because she is afraid of the sadness of other girls she cares about... Well, this is indeed..."

After bowing her head and hesitating for a while, Nicky still decided to express her true feelings. After all, it might be the only chance for her to have such an intimate conversation with the elder sister she likes. If you leave regrets, you will probably regret it for the rest of your life, right?

Therefore, Nicky mustered up the courage to meet Erin's eyes, with a sad but firm feeling in her eyes: "If I say that I like my sister now, my sister will definitely have concerns because of me, right? I know Onee-sama's personality is just like this, because she is too gentle towards others and neglects herself... I also know that it is a very cunning thing to express your feelings while taking advantage of this, so please forgive me...because I really like onee-sama , I fell in love with her when I was rescued by my sister. Although I also like sister Qianya very much, I know that the two kinds of liking feelings are different... Even so, it really doesn’t matter, don’t worry about it It doesn't matter how I or others feel...Because I, as long as I can see my sister find my own happiness, I will be very happy..."

At this moment, she suddenly received this confession, and Eileen couldn't help standing there blankly, feeling a little at a loss for a moment: "Nicky...does she like me too?"

Tears of joy or sadness flashed in Nicki's eyes, she took a small step back, shook her head and said, "Well, I really like it. But, this is fine, it doesn't matter if you don't need to respond to me, Because, I already feel the tenderness that belongs to my sister..."
