Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! - Chapter 158

The Northern Country 5

We quickly finished greeting granduncle and were guided into the mansion.
Why?
Every servant we pa.s.s by has a good physique.
Grandfather and grandmother seem to accept it as something usual, but I, Allen-kun, Ange-san, and Sasuke-san chase the servants with our eyes.
This must be normal why?
Were they expected to eat more and grow bigger?

“Now, you all must be tired, right? Please relax as the tea is prepared.”

Finally, I could take a breather in the room granduncle prepared.
Somehow, I feel tired from learning various information.

“By the way, Lucian, we met Lute during our travel, that child has brown quite a bit~. He was a different person from when I last met him long ago.”

“Ah, he did say he met you, older sister. That’s right, he finally obtained decent muscles.”

Perhaps, did Bear-sama come home already?
Eh, even though he ran?

“Umm, granduncle, has Lute-sama come home already?”

“Hm? Ah, that’s right, he came a while before everybody, he’s taking a bath now. It’s indeed troublesome he wandered into the mansion with such appearance. He’s supposed to come here after he dresses, will you wait a moment?”

Ah, after all he came back.
What an amazing person Bear-sama is.

After we chatted for half an hour sipping tea I heard a knock on the door.
Granduncle replied, it seems it’s Bear-sama.
We thought it would be beautiful Bear-sama who would come in, but our prediction was hugely betrayed.
That’s to say, is he someone else? Who’s that?

“I am sorry for the late greeting. I’m glad you arrived safely.”

Eh, who’s that?
The physique is st.u.r.dy Although it could be called muscular, it fits him just right.
And his face I feel like I’ve seen those beautiful eyes recently.
Did he notice we were drilling holes in him with our gazes? A little bashful, he began his introduction.

“Ah, could it be that you haven’t noticed? I guess you wouldn’t when I had such an appearance. Then, let me reintroduce myself, I’m Lute. Age is 27, hobby is hunting, and what else Ah, right now I’m preparing my body for the tournament.”

A, after all it was Bear-sama!
Bear-sama is no longer like Bear-sama!
He’s become a regular handsome man.
No, there’s nothing wrong with that, but it’s a little sad
Everyone is staring fixedly at Bear-sama No, he can’t be called Bear-sama anymore, he’s Lute-sama.

“Ara, after all Lute has grown like this~. I haven’t noticed as he was covered with beard. But, he seems to have grown stronger than before?”

Who responded to grandmother was not Lute, but his father Lucian.

“Yeah, that’s right. As his growth was slow, we were both worried about it, but his body suddenly grew big at 20 This child will be a representative at the tournament.”

I see, Lute-sama has grown so much at 20.
Allen-kun and Ange-san are still staring at Lute-sama.
In contrast, for some reason Lute-sama is alternately stealing glances at me and Ange-san.
Does he have some business with us?
Granduncle who was watching that, said something to Lute-sama.
Then Lute-sama nodded and came towards me.

“Lillinsama, could I ask for a favor? Just once Just once would it be alright if I held you up?”

“Eh?”

I feel like I was told something I don’t understand just now.
Why hold me up?
When I was at a loss as how to reply, granduncle, grandfather, and grandmother came to me.

“Sorry, Lillina, could you do as Lute asked for a bit?”

“Lillina, Lute has no ulterior motives.”

“Lillina, Lute is a little curious to try it out, please.”

I can’t refuse if everyone asks me.
I don’t understand well, but I nodded deeply.
Then Lute-sama came in front of me, put his hands on my sides

“Oooh! This is really like a fairy! I can’t feel any weight. Great, you’re amazing, Lillinsama!”

With me lifted high up in the air, Lute-sama is spinning.
Yeah~~, so that’s how it feels to be help up?
It’s different from what I imagined
But, what about it is so fun for Lute-sama? He keeps spinning with me with a big smile.

I was relieved when he finally let me down gently.
Ugh~~, my eyes are spinning.
Did he notice I was unsteady? Lute-sama supported me.

“S, sorry. I got quite excited and forgot myself. But, you really are light. For a n.o.ble woman to be so delicate how amazing.”

. Eh?
Why in the world is he impressed?
