Yucca, daughter of Solstice, arrived in King''s Landing earlier than expected. Twelve days after my meeting with Solstice. I think they sent out a fast horse and contacted the mainland immediately.


    I guess Soltys did not want to be perceived as reluctant. I may have made him feel uncomfortable in a strange way.


    Not knowing how I should feel about meeting Yucca, I decided to have a tea ceremony with Jahnhahn to calm down.


    The tea ceremony room is now located in the grounds of the royal castle. It is because it is too much trouble to visit the residence of Jahnhahn every time. And because of his position, he has to watch out for assassins.


    During the tea ceremony, we do not talk about anything else. The tea ceremony itself is a ceremony. Jahnhahn would condemn us if we treat it carelessly.


    I drink the dark green tea slowly.


    Today''s tea is a little astringent, but perhaps that reflects my mental state.


    "You seem to be lost. I can tell as soon as I see it."


    After I finished my drink, Jahnhahn said to me.


    The expression on Jahnhahn''s face during the tea ceremony could be described as that of a master. His whole body emitted the air of a master of the Way.


    He said, "I am meeting the daughter of Solstice. It''s a bit like a blind date, and it''s distracting."


    Now that we have finished our tea, we are allowed to discuss something in this small space.


    "I see. No matter how many times I repeat it, each time I am lost and confused. That''s what love is all about, isn''t it?"


    "In general, yes, but I never thought I would feel this way. What should I do about it? I wanted to hear Jahnhahn''s answer."


    Jahnhahn narrowed his eyes a little and smiled faintly. He is a good official, but there is nothing official in his expression.


    "If you are here because you think it looks like a marriage meeting, why don''t you act like one?


    A pause in his voice as Jahnhahn replies.


    If your heart is in the right place, I think it would be better to let it flow without forcing yourself to go against it. What do you think?　In any case, there is no such thing as a right answer in the world of colorful love. The more you try to fit into a mold, the more you will fail.


    The words fell into my heart immediately.


    "Okay. I''ll take you at your word."


    "Yes. It is also good not to act politically.


    Said Jahnhahn with a smile.


    I''m sure you''ll be fine.


    Then I met Yucca.


    I asked Yucca to come into the room where I was. Kerala was in my room. The other party might be nervous about the one-on-one meeting.


    Soon the door opened. I gasp. I wonder who is more nervous, me or them.


    I tried to see their faces, but I couldn''t see their faces.


    Yucca had her hands out in front of her, covering her face.


    I felt like a captive sinner.


    "I''m sorry. ....... I''m not used to this kind of thing. ......"


    No one is used to it. Take a deep breath.


    Kerala gave me sound advice.


    After taking a really deep breath, Yucca removed her hand.


    She had unusual light blue hair, I thought. Her eyes were blue as well.


    There was something doll-like about her, but she was not in any way unbeautiful. She was a very graceful princess.


    "Your hair is beautiful."


    After saying this, I reflected on whether I had been a bit too typographical in my praise.


    "This is ...... because my ancestor several generations ago fell in love with the daughter of a merchant from another continent. ......"


    "The Nistonians rule the sea. It is possible that this is the case."


    "Yes. ....... I''m very nervous ....... I feel like my heart is going to jump out of my chest ......"


    Yucca''s nervousness was more than cute, but it gave the impression that she could not be left alone.


    "Yucca, please take a seat. I will offer you a cup of tea.


    Kerala escorts Yucca.


    I then asked her a few questions about her, but she was not very fit and hardly ever went outside to play. She told me that when she was a little girl, it was a rare occasion for her to visit the castle of Maust.


    To tell the truth, I thought that this girl really did not know anything about the world.


    All the girls I have met so far had the power to take charge of their own destiny, but Yucca did not have that kind of will to go forward.


    However, I knew that a princess like Yucca was normal. It would not be unusual for men and women to say that a woman like Seraphina''s winsome personality was petty, and there are some things that are not acquired until one is in a position to hold the fate of the family in one''s hands, as Fleur was.


    A daughter like this is what a normal, well-brought-up girl would be. And as it should be, she will be used as a tool for political disputes.


    In that sense, I have not had a normal love life.


    Normal love. If I could, that might not be so bad.


    Do you have any dreams or wishes, Yucca?


    I will ask her many questions at the blind date. Let''s forget about the position of regent as much as possible. If there is such a thing, it will finally be impossible to have a normal love life.


    "Is it a dream? Let''s see... ......"


    Yucca is mulling it over. If Serafina had asked her, she would have said something about becoming a champion soon, or something like that.


    "Yucca, if you can''t think of anything right away, you don''t have to tell me. If you can''t come up with an idea right away, you don''t have to tell us. It is rare for a human being to always have a dream.


    Kerala''s follow-up sounded somewhat ironic to me. It''s true that I and Serafina are in the minority.


    "Oh, I don''t mean that the regent is an anomaly. That''s very admirable.


    "Don''t bother telling me. I understand.


    Kerala''s eyes aren''t smiling, so it''s hard to tell.


    "Oh, yes, yes. Speaking of dreams, I had this one.


    He remembered something in Yucca.
