Chapter 71
If I were useless to you, would you treat me coldly?
Fii waited for his answer.
Her heart pounded as her chest clenched.
(Id hate it if he said yes)
Even though she was the one who asked, those were her feelings right now.
Hmmm Well
York held his chin in his hands and began to think.
Even if you ask me that, the person were talking about is somebody incredibly talented even for a knight. Somebody who constantly strives to overcome their weaknesses, and endeavours not just for my sake, but for everyones. You. You help the lighten mood in our division as well, and I also feel comfortable when Im around you. Youre a valuable person who there isnt a replacement for. So trying to imagine a you that isnt any of those things just isnt possible for me. Thats why I dont know what to tell you.
His words caused her cheeks to suddenly heat up.
She even had to desperately stop herself from grinning.
D-, Dont think you can avoid the question by praising me, okay!
In order to hide it, Fii tried to seem angry.
I-, I see. Sorry.
Why was she angry.
After thinking for a while, he muttered Ah, in realisation.
But that doesnt mean that Id abandon knights that stop working because of injury, you know. Theyre the heroes of our nation. I would never treat them with anything but welcome. I dont want you to get injured, and I intend on taking care to keep you that way, so you can rest assured.
Thats really not what I meant Geez
With her face still beet red, Fii slumped her shoulders and let out a tired sigh.
All her fervour had disappeared somehow.
In the end, it was no good
Still, as his loyal subordinate, she felt it was necessary to advise him.
Then, as your subordinate, Id like to ask a favour of you. Please treat girls as gently as you can.
Upon hearing her words, York fell into thought for a moment. His folded arms trembled, and his brows twitched, but he managed to squeeze out an answer.
I-, Ill see
Even Fii was resigned at this point.
(Does he really hate spending time on women that much?)
Just imagining it had caused York to tremble painfully.
Well, it was true that the Captain was very busy, and she also felt sorry for him in this respect. But Fii felt that it would be a problem in all sorts of ways if it continued.
Even if it didnt affect his duties as a knight, it would be all sorts of problems once he got married.
(But I think that the Captain might change once he finds a girl he wants to be gentle to. Its such a shame I think even the Captain would change if he met a wonderful girl like Fiiru)
Unfortunately, Fiiru was married.
Getting into an affair with His Majestys wife would probably be bad news even for the Captain.
Since Fii couldnt think of any other way of changing him, she was forced to put it aside for now.
But she swore in her mind. That if one day there was a wonderful girl who could change him, at that time, Fii would take action again.
