Chris's Faith of Fire

"Who are you helping? I saw with my own eyes that it was him!"

"But Your Highness..."

"You don't need to say more!"

Sophie's sudden rebellious words made me very irritated, but the cute boy next to me looked like he was thinking about something while listening to our words.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, but you are a little too excited... How about you listen to what Master Noelle has to say?"

I looked at Sophie who was a little nervous and wanted to persuade me, and then at the blond boy who didn't say anything.

I felt inexplicably unhappy. I originally thought that there was real friendship between girls, but in the end, when I saw a beautiful boy, I helped him inexplicably. I was different from those who didn't know each other at all but just met each other for the first time. What's the difference between stupid men who talk to girls?

I pushed aside the maid who was gently tugging on my sleeve and walked towards the restaurant.

"I'm not in the mood! And I don't need you to serve me tonight."

After leaving these words, the two people stayed where they were in embarrassment.

As soon as I said that and turned around, I felt my cheeks getting hot.

What am I doing? Thinking about it carefully, Sophie is right... Why do you have to lose your temper like a child? It's obviously a situation in your own advantage. You just need to ask clearly. If the other party denies it, come back later. Your Majesty, please make it clear.

Lord Shahavier seems to be a very gentle person, and he also likes my appearance...

But I was restrained by the momentary anger, which disturbed my calm thinking, and I did these unnecessary stupid things on a whim.

As a result, after all this fuss, she became like the willful princess she originally was.

If you want to just turn around and apologize to them in a low voice, no... just apologize to the girl and withdraw the harsh words you said to Sophie.

In fact, without a friend like her to talk to, I would be terribly lonely.

But the boots were stuck to the ground as if they were glued, and even stopping to walk into the restaurant seemed a little difficult.

He didn't dare to look back at the girl's expression.

"..."

In the end, I didn’t say anything. We all sat at the same table together during dinner. My father and the Duke obviously talked a lot and asked me some questions, but I answered perfunctorily as if I couldn’t hear clearly. It's over.

I always felt that they said something very important, including the engagement. I should have objected to it, but under the glare of Sister Ladia, I became speechless.

My father asked me to talk more with Master Noelle. The boy's face became serious and he came closer as if he had something to say, but I ran away.

He made an excuse to escape from the room, just wanting to go back to his own room.

Let your whole body cool down.

Chapter 19 19. In order to become friends - 1

"Ugh……"

A gentle sigh passed through the castle window and disappeared into the untouchable clouds.

The breeze blew across the young man's face, slightly moving the long hair on his forehead.

The sunset was almost disappearing on the other side of the mountain, and my father and the king of Garnet were also discussing other matters.

No one understands the boy's troubles, and even if they know, they definitely don't take it seriously. In their eyes, everything that just happened is just children's play...

Except for one petite maid.

"Master Shahavier..."

Hearing her little call, Noelle turned her face and put on a gentle smile.

"That's it, Noelle. Thank you for speaking up for me at that time, Miss Maid."

"Yes, yes. Master Noelle, my name is Sophie...I am really sorry for what happened to His Highness."

"There is no need to apologize. Miss Sophie is absolutely not wrong, but I seem to be disliked by Chris."

At this point, the boy's voice became gloomy again.

"Finally, there is nothing like that. There must be some misunderstanding between His Highness and Master Noel. I don't think Master Noel is the person to do that kind of thing."

The maid suddenly held the boy's hand.

"Hey……"

Because of Sophie's sincere attitude, Noelle was speechless for a moment.

"Master Noel?"

"No, it's nothing. It's just that no one has ever said that to me..."

Sophie opened her mouth in slight surprise, but immediately retracted her expression and revealed a slight smile.

"How come, Master Noel seems to be such a well-behaved child."

"Is that right?"

"Well, that's it."

"Thank you~~"

Although she was happy to be trusted by the maid, Noelle was still troubled by the words of the beautiful silver-white girl and wanted her to know everything.He even hoped that she was eavesdropping on the conversation between him and the maid.In this case, even if the misunderstanding cannot be resolved, he will not be so hostile to himself.

But this was impossible. After the dinner, Chris left as if she was running away.

Just talking to myself was filled with deep disgust.

He wanted to know the reason. Chrissy didn't seem to be a simple and willful princess. Her words and deeds in the past two days were all directed at the young man. He knew this better than anyone else.

At least he wanted to know the reason, so Noelle spoke to the only volunteer around him who was willing to help.

"Well, can you tell me why Chris is so angry?"

"Hum~~Of course you can. I feel extremely honored to be able to help His Highness and Master Noelle with their affairs."

Seeing the young man's serious face, Sophie smiled softly.

Both Master Noelle and Princess Chris are adorable. The scene of these two smiling and eating together makes people smile just thinking about it. You must help them!

Sophie secretly made up her mind.

"Master Noelle, let's start with the day before the banquet."

"Well, Chris said I owe her 3000 April or something, I don't know what's going on."

Since Chris was so angry after seeing the boy's face during the banquet, she didn't even tell the whole story clearly. It was the same this time, leaving the boy alone in distress.No~~If you include the maid, there are two people.

"There are a lot of unreasonable things about that incident. I have told His Highness so before. To sum up, His Highness escaped from the palace that day and met a thief when he went shopping. Just when the guards were about to bring him to justice, Noe Master Er used magic to blow away His Highness and the guards, and the thief escaped successfully and took away His Highness's wallet."

"Hey! I didn't do anything like that!"

"Well, I also believe in Master Noel. After all, there is something strange about time, so His Highness is not really angry about it."

"Really...but she still won't even listen to a word I say."

Sophie showed a somewhat troubled expression.

"Well, this matter is related to last night. Can I ask Master Noel?"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

"Did you really not go to the public bathhouse last night and steal Her Highness's clothes while she was out of the bath...?"

Even the girl who had trusted Noelle before seemed dubious now. Although she did not see the boy's face at the time, the voice must have been this voice.Even if you use illusion to change your appearance, there are still limitations. For example, it is impossible for a strong man to become a girl through illusion.

"Of course you can't do such a thing! You will obviously be hated!"

The young man hurriedly shook his head in denial with red cheeks.

"That's right... Master Noel's cold voice back then was completely different from now."

"Yeah, but I did think of something. Could it be... No, it was obviously forbidden by my father. It can't be like that..."

"Master Noel?"

Seeing the young man's thoughtful look, Sophie couldn't help but call him softly.

Noelle blushed when she realized that she was trapped in a human world again.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm so rude. Miss Sophie is obviously still here."

"It's okay~ Master Noelle is so polite and cute."

"Hmm... um. Let's not talk about this for now. Can you take me to a large bathing house?"

"Huh? What are you going to do there... She will be even more angry if you bump into His Highness."

"I know this, but there is something I care about. I can probably verify my thoughts by reading it."

Although it is not certain, it is better than being helpless like this.

Sophie nodded.

"In that case, let me lead the way."

"please."

The two also chatted a lot about Chris on the road. For Sophie, she didn't want the boy to misunderstand her master's real thoughts. She knew better than anyone that the girl she was serving was not who she was said to be. The only one is the willful and incompetent princess.

During her frequent chats with Chris, there would occasionally be parts that surprised her. At that time, Chris seemed like an adult man who had experienced setbacks and hardships in life, showing a maturity that was inconsistent with his innocent face.

Although he often gives embarrassing instructions, he still cares about himself from time to time, not like a servant, but like a friend.

For such a princess, if we measure it in terms of dislike or liking, then the favoring side must have an overwhelming weight.

Therefore, not wanting her master to be forced to marry someone she didn't like, the girl was even happier than her master when she learned that Master Shahavier was not the bloated playboy she imagined but the gentle and beautiful boy in front of her.

The misunderstanding must be resolved so that they can become happy in the future.

Thinking of this, Sophie clenched her fists.

"This is it, Master Noelle."

Standing at the door of the large bathhouse, Sophie replied after bowing.

"In order to prevent yesterday's incident from happening again, let me first check to see if His Highness is using it."

"um. Thank you."

After saying that, the maid gently opened the bathroom door and walked in.

Noelle looked at the door, sometimes squatting down and looking at the ground, as if looking for something.

The footprints had already been swept away, and nothing was left there.

"Master Noelle, no one is using it. Please go in. I will guard the door. If your Highness comes, I will explain it to her."

"thanks……"

Apart from these two words, the boy couldn't think of any other words to describe his mood. If he didn't find some clues, he would be too much trouble for others.

Walking into the royal bathroom, a stream of warm steam hit the young man's face. Considering that he was still dressed in winter, it seemed a bit too hot. Noelle couldn't help fanning the wind with his hands, hoping to try his best. Get a little cooler.

Although it is possible to use magic, Mana is not something that should be used casually.

When he lowered his head, the boy hurriedly bent down as if he had discovered something.

"This is……"

There are some white short hairs on the ground.

"Miss Sophie!"

"What happened? Master Noel?"

The maid hurriedly ran in after hearing the boy's call.

The young man was looking down at the stone paved ground carefully.

"Isn't the bathroom as cleaned as it is outside?"

"Well, because the magic guide in the bathroom relies on the water flow, but the magic guide consumes mana, so the cleaning frequency is about twice a week. Of course, the water in the bath will be changed every day."

"That's it... then that should be the case."

The young man murmured in a low voice, explored the surroundings, and leaned down as if he had discovered something.

"Ugh?"

Sophie tilted her head in confusion.
