After enjoying Ariel-san’s performance, Frea-san and Eingana-san were going to see Lillie-san’s performance next, so we parted ways with them at this point.

To be honest, I would have liked Eingana-san, who is familiar with the Harmonic Symphony, to accompany us, but I didn’t want to make her change her plans, so I didn’t ask her to do so.

We had finished visiting the presentations of about half of the Seven Princesses, Jutia-san, Lillie-san and Ariel-san, and since it was lunchtime, we decided to have lunch before going to the next location.

As we were told that the restaurants were open as usual, we discussed what to eat while browsing through Kuro’s Eating Tour in its Entirety Guide: Yggfresis.

[……However, I think the regular restaurants would be too crowded.]

[Ahh, how about this place? It looks like it allows takeouts, so we could buy from that shop and eat it at a plaza.]

As she peeked into the Eating Tour Guide I was looking at, Hina-chan pointed to one restaurant. It seemed to be a place that sold hot dogs and other such food suitable for eating while walking, and just as Hina-chan said, it was written that take-out was available.

There are a lot of people attending the Harmonic Symphony, so I guess it’s not a bad idea to have some take-out and eat it in the plaza.

[We’re okay with it…… but Lilia-san is a noble, so wouldn’t she be uncomfortable with eating while walking?]

[Eh? ……Ahh, I- I suppose so. I certainly feel reluctant…… but it wasn’t really that much of a problem……]

The thought Aoi-chan just thought about seemed to be something Lilia-san didn’t expect, as she responded to her words, looking somewhat flustered.

[……Aoi-sama, you may have forgotten, but Milady used to be part of the Knight Order, so she had experienced eating preserved food while traveling to save time…… I don’t think she would have resistance eating while walking at all.]

[……I- I think I have a little bit of it though.]

[No, the first time it was brought up earlier, you clearly looked like you didn’t understand what she was talking about.]

Hearing Luna-san’s words, I also understood what she meant. Indeed, since she had the experience of a member of the Knight Order, she may not have such a resistance to eating while walking compared to genuine nobles.

Anyway, Lilia-san and the others didn’t seem to have any problems with it, so we decided to go to the restaurant that offers take-out which Hina-chan has chosen and started moving.

On the way there, I thought of something and asked the nearby Lilia-san.

[Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve heard of this before…… but do you have a favorite food, Lilia-san?]

[Favorite food……?]

[Ahh, I’m curious about that too. I guess it would be some chic cuisine or some chic sweets, right?]

Lilia-san eats everything in an elegant manner, befitting a noble, but I don’t remember hearing her talk about what she likes or dislikes in particular.

As Hina-chan looked at her with eyes filled with curiosity…… Looking slightly troubled, Lilia-san averted her gaze.

[……Errr…… Roasted veal, and for dessert, charlotte cake…… I suppose.]

It’s just a guess, but I think she’s lying. Lilia-san isn’t a person who can skillfully lie, as she would look away and her voice was pitched high, making it very easy to tell when she lies.

At that moment, Luna-san, who heard those words, spoke with a rather stunned expression on her face.

[How dare she tell such a big lie in front of me and Sieg? Does she want to show off to Miyama-sama so badly…… Anyhow, Sieg, please state the right answer.]

[……Lili’s favorite food is omelet and strawberry shortcake.]

Urged by Luna-san, Sieg-san gave the correct answer. Those certainly were very commoner-like favorites.

[……N- No, it was indeed as she said but…… It’s just that omelets and shortcakes are my favorites because they bring back fond memories…… I mean, a big factor for that is Illness making them well for me.]

[……Isn’t your second favorite beef skewers? I’m sometimes secretly sent to buy it after all.]

[…………………..]

Lilia-san was trying to keep appearances, but sadly for her, there’s Luna-san here who knows Lilia-san very well. She’s also someone who would happily pursue after her in a situation like this.

[Eh? Beef skewers?]

[Yes, not steak, not roast beef, skewers.]

When Luna-san explained the situation to the surprised Aoi-chan, Lilia-san averted her face that was blushing red and muttered, seemingly pouting.

[……Isn’t it fine…… After all, simple things like that are the most delicious.]

I know how Lilia-san feels and it’s adorable to see her sulking, but I can’t just leave Lilia-san like that, so I called out my support to her.

[Lilia-san, everyone has different tastes. Even I like burger steak, so I don’t think there’s anything strange about that at all.]

[R- Really?]

[Yes, rather, I’m glad that I got to know another thing about you, Lilia-san.]

[……Kaito-san.]

Hearing my words, Lilia-san looked happy, and at an angle that Luna-san and the others, who were continuing their own conversation, could not see, she gently held my hand and leaned her body on mine.
