After all that, the drama finally subsided.
With the help of my sister-in-law and servants, Enzo finally managed to come to Elendale while I was busy with other tasks such as taking care of the dragon cub.
"Hey, Ruby, I was worried about you, but your face is glowing! That's nice to see, oi! How long has it been!"
As soon as he arrived with the Pope's delegation, he sneaked out to the entertainment district. Despite the fact that he was dragged away by the city guard, there was no sign of embarrassment on Gonfaloniere's face.
I almost felt motion sick as he swung me around ,hugging me brightly.
He was still the same.
"Come on in... Isn't it cold?"
"What do you mean? I thought I was going to freeze to death as soon as I arrived! Wow, but it sure is exciting to see snow after so long. It snows so much! It's a much more romantic place than I thought."
So romantic that you went to places like that while you were freezing to death?
I had to avoid seeing the look on my father-in-law's face.
As for King Feanol, he just had no expression.
He seemed to have given up on understanding what was happening these days.
After some formal greetings and procedures, I had a moment alone with Enzo.
It was a sunny afternoon and the snow stopped just in time, so we walked along the promenade to the palace garden.
While Enzo was admiring the lonely appearance of the moon tower, which was almost done getting restored, I blanked out looking at the half-bloomed camellia.
"I think everyone here has a scary impression. Is it because it's a cold country?"
"As soon as you came, you played around in a strange place and had to be dragged back, so I don't blame them for acting cold to you."
"Hey, I wasn't dragged here. And it's not a strange place, the butter liquor here is so good that I wanted to visit pubs..."
"I heard you were found busy in a gambling den. And you call yourself my older brother?"
"I-I was just watching, just watching! I am the Gonfaloniere of Romagna, and observing the traditions and customs of the people ...."
Enzo, who was saying some nonsense, suddenly looked at me with a serious look on his face.
The playfulness disappeared from his sad eyes.
"Hey, what happened with Brother?"
"Well, what did you hear?"
"I didn't hear anything in particular. Brother never confides in me. I went to see him after a long time but he was fighting hard with Father about what happened. No, can't call it a fight. Father almost killed him. I've never seen him get so mad at Brother before. It was hilarious. You should have seen it....."
"So what did Father say to you while sending you here?"
"Huh? To me? I don't remember. I don't know if it's because I'm still sleepy. I only remember him repeating his nagging dozens of times, like damn it, I'm not a baby."
"......."
"Oh, I think it was something like appeasing you and making you forgive your brother. If you accuse our family in any way, we'll all be in trouble together....... Oh, I don't know why he was telling me to do all that, I can never handle the stress!"
