I looked at Ricardo and then at Vika.
In the darkness, the two stood silently, but they conveyed a tense atmosphere.
That was also a matter of course. Because Ricardo and his family were upset in the civil strife.
Earl Astor's hatred of North Country was strong.
After a while, Ricardo spoke.
“I heard them from Britney. Your origins, your being friendly to here…having the information that is good for the future of Central Country, and hiding trail from North Country.”
“So, what are you going to do with us? Are you going to escort us back to North Country? I have the suspicion of being hated by you… I am mentally prepared about that.”
Vika's voice was shaking. If she returned to her motherland now, she would definitely think that her life would come to an end.
However, Ricardo shook his head seriously.
“I won't do that because Britney won't want to… she wants to protect you.”
Vika held her breath quietly, watching carefully with her dark eyes.
“The price is… the information I have. I understand. It seems that only then can I survive.”
The two of us nodded to Vika.
However, Ricardo, who stood up to protect me, warned the princess with a harsh voice.
“We will protect you, but if you have suspicious behavior, we will not forgive you. If I think that you are not good for this country and Britney, I will send you back to North Country immediately.”
Vika and Girou swallowed and nodded.
“But this is really troublesome. If I will be protected by you, should I transfer the hiding place? Although it is good to hide here…”
Indeed, as Vika said, nearby residents had avoided the horrible ghost mansion.
Assuming that they were moved to where we moved, there was also the risk of being discovered on the way.
“If you pretend to be riding a carriage, etc.”
“So, where is the destination? Don't be near the castle and the city center. In that area, I was chased several times.”
“Eh──um……”
The two residences of the alternate moving place were near the heart of the city street. I wanted Vika to go, but it seemed to be rejected.
It was okay to force them away, but if they were found, I hoped to avoid getting into trouble.
The Earl Hakusu's family and the North Country had connections in the back, I didn't want to in such strange rumors.
“Understood, I will think about it. Then, what about to talk to His Royal Highness Lucas in the city? He seems to be very friendly to Central Country.”
When I spoke, Vika showed an ironic smile.
“You, do you really think so? That guy, is from North Country…”
“what-……?”…
After I was surprised to see Vika, she insisted to say “I absolutely do not want Lucas to know”.
I couldn't help but face Ricardo.
At this time, I heard the call of the guide on the first floor.
He seemed to be worried because we were late. Although we still had a lot to say, it was better to go back.
Leaving Vika in place, I and Ricardo returned to the guide. then……
“Huh ~ ah? Then you two… just chose the broken mansion? How much do you think the conversion will cost?”
We went back to the castle where Ryuze was, sitting in a small shape, looking at him with a pale face.
The temperature in the room that was stranded showed the illusion of sudden cooling.
“So, sorry…” Our voice was vague.
Ricardo and I kept shaking and looked away from Ryuze.
“Bu, but, considering the matter of Princess Vika, I feel that it is best to buy that house…”
“I also have the same opinion as Britney. It is not good to ignore that princess… If I can, I don't want to choose the mansion, but there is no way. The princess refuses to move, but we can't just put her like this, then she will be found by the people of North Country.”
“Yes, that's it. And the guide said that if we decide to buy it on the spot, it will be half price…”
We kept talking, and Ryuze sighed softly. “I really can't help it.” After talking like this, he put his hair up by hand.
“Princess Vika's actions have not been understood yet. Her existence can't be revealed now. It is helpless to buy that house.”
Deceived. Just now he was definitely attracted by the “half price”…!
However, I had no courage to point this out.
As a result, we bought the ghost mansion and made modifications. We would live there while we stayed in the Capital. Although this was very sorry for Ricardo.
“Ricardo, if you are afraid, I will stay with you at night.”
When I encouraged him, Ryuze interjected.
“It's okay, Britney.If Ricardo's afraid, I will stay with him… right?”
“…!? No, no, I am fine no problem -…!”
In this way, we moved into the ghost mansion.
