Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! - Chapter 144

Brother and Sana 2

“Hey, Sana. Did you tell your feelings to elder brother? Brother is like that, so unless you tell him it won’t get through to him. In the first place, what did elder brother say when he proposed?”

Sana awkwardly answered my question.

“Ricardo-sama told me he wishes to m, marry me. However, afterwards he said he wants to protect me I don’t want to be somebody who’s only protected. After I told him that, for some reason he declared ‘Sana, you only need to be protected by me.’ Then, my, strange switch has flipped and I challenged Ricardo-sama to a match. You know the rest, Lillinsama”

I see, I understand Sana’s feelings.
But, why did brother think he only needs to protect Sana.
Did he change his mind when he realized he loves her?
What I can do here is

“Sana, there is something I want to ask Could you tell me your honest feelings? Without misleading me, without caring about appearances. I want to know your true feelings.”

Sana replied with a soft “Yes.”

“Sana, do you want to marry elder brother?”

” I want to.”

Phew, that’s good.
Then, it’s time I make a move.

“Sana, thank you. For choosing such elder brother.”

When I told Sana that, I left the room.
My aim is brother.
When I pa.s.sed by Sebastian I learned of his whereabouts, he seems to have headed for the chivalric order’s training area.
Training area huh.
There’s a saying ‘strike while the iron is hot’, shall I go?

I thought of going out after telling grandfather, so I headed to his room.

” And so I would like to go to the chivalric order’s training area.”

Grandfather smiled at my sudden proposal.

“Ooh, a.s.sault on the chivalric order? Alright, go. Well, I don’t think there will be problem if you go alone, but just in case take Allen with you.”

Grandfather, it’s not an a.s.sault?
There’s a possibility it will become one if I bring Allen, I wonder if it’s okay.

“Understood. Then, I’m off.”

I set out for the training area with Allen-kun.
Inside the carriage

“Lillinsama that, are you alright going to the chivalric order’s training area?”

Hm, I wonder if I’ll be a hindrance?
It’s unusual for Allen-kun to say such a thing.

“Umm, is it about hindering elder brother’s training?”

“No, it’s not about the training Just, isn’t the chivalric order’s training area inside the castle? Wouldn’t that mean there’s a chance of meeting Leon and Princess Sumire, was what I thought.”

I totally forgot about that.
That’s right, it’s like going to Leon-sama’s and Sumire-sama’s house.
Although I was only focused on Sana, to forget something so important

“We, we’ll finish our task right away, so it’ll be fine right?”

“It’s okay. No matter what happens Lillinsama, you will be able to escape from the castle.”

How rea.s.suring.
Allen-kun, let’s go home together.
While I had such thoughts, we arrived at our destination.
Now, let’s go meet brother!

“Hm? Allen and Lillinsama is it? Why are you here?”

I saw a familiar face on the way to the training area.
It’s Alek-sama.

“Well, h.e.l.lo Alek-sama. I met you just at the right moment. Do you know where elder brother is?”

“Ah, captain? Right now, captain is in the middle of an annual event at the training area.”

“Annual event is it?”

“Yeah, it will be faster to show you, shall we go?”

I and Allen-kun followed Alek-sama into the training area.
As soon as I entered, I heard screams.

“”””Today is the day we defeat the captain!!””””

With that yell the knights headed for brother.

” You’ve got guts. I’ll make you take it back!”

With this one shout, brother began blowing away other knights as they came.
The order members keep overflowing one after another.

“This is, the annual event?”

Alek-sama nodded in response.
So it’s like this every time~, hey knights.
They are being blown away one by one.
However despite being hit by brother, they are quick to recover.

“Every time this happens, the knights are struck and get stronger. Before, it was over after they were blown away once, now they can go for five rounds. They’re growing.”

I see~, that’s also a training.
From time to time, I can hear ‘I’ll take Sana as a bride~~!’ or “Let’s meet Ange-sama~~!’, are those also cheers?
However, after hearing such words, brother’s attack is horrible.
At the same time, Alek-sama is throwing something at those who have mentioned Ange-sama.
Ah~, Alek-sama, it’s indeed a wooden sword, are you going to throw it?
