Chapter 122

「Fufufu~」

「……」

Right now, we are facing the Queen for some reason.

Queen looked at us with her smiling, violet eyes.

「「Onii~chan, cream bread is~?」」

「My, my, don’t worry. I ordered to bring it here once it is properly baked, so wait for a little more, okay?」

「「Un, got it~」」

While I was confused without knowing the reason for being called here, Allen and Elena were worried about the cream bread we were making just a little while ago.

But, Queen apparently already made arrangements and it will be brought here once it’s done.

「…… Err, why were we called here, I wonder?」

「Fufufu~ that is you see? Of course, because I wanted to meet you. Is such reason not enough to call you over?」

「N, no! Not at all!」

「That so? I am glad then~ let’s have a tea then. Ah, please call me Grace. Okay, Tak.u.mi-san?」

It appears that the Queen――Grace-sama called us because she wanted to meet us. Thus, she decided to go with the flow and have a tea together.

「Right, right. I called another two people over for tea. I think they should be coming soon, but……――ah, they are here」

A knocking resounded on the door as a confirmation to Grace-sama’s statement, and a handsome man of about the same age as me and beautiful woman entered inside.

They must be the people Grace-sama called over for tea.

「Mother, we are coming in?」

Ehh!? The young man called Grace-sama “Mother.”

Thinking that this is bad, I stood up from the chair hurriedly, but I was stopped by Grace-sama in the end.

「I heard you called for us, what is the matter?」

「My, Austin. You have finally came」

「Of course I would come after being summoned so suddenly. I made a time between the state affairs and came to visit you. Moreover, you even called Aurora over, did something happen?」

The young man――Austin-sama, called Grace-sama Mother, so he’s a prince without a doubt. His facial features don’t resemble Tristan-sama or Grace-sama that much, but he inherited Tristan-sama’s bright blonde hair and Grace-sama’s violet eyes.

「Mother, I am sorry to have kept you waiting」

「Aurora too, welcome」

The woman――Aurorsama also called Grace-sama “Mother.” If I remember hearing correctly, then Tristan-sama’s and Grace-sama’s three children are all princes. I also heard that he doesn’t have any concubines, so Aurorsama must be Austin-sama’s wife?

「So, what is the matter?」

「I thought of having tea together」

「Eh? Tea…… is it? Just that?」

Austin-sama made an unsatisfied expression.

Though he was called over during the state affairs, only to be said「Let’s have a tea」in the end, right~

「Besides, who might these people be?」

「This is Tak.u.mi-san, Allen-kun and Elensan. You have heard of them before, right?」

「!」

Because of Grace-sama’s words, Austin-sama fixedly stared at us.

「Tak.u.mi-san, let me introduce you. This is my son, Austin. And this is Austin’s princess, Aurora. Ah, Austin is, pretty much, the Crown Prince」

Austin-sama was not only a prince, but a Crown Prince at that! And Aurorsama is the Crown Princess, I see!

「It an honor to meet you. I am Tak.u.mi」

「So you are the adventurer that had an audience with Father the other day! I see……」

It appears that Austin-sama knows about us. But, Austin-sama fell into silence and just continued staring at us as if observing.

Err…… just what is going on, I wonder~……

「Oh dear, Austin’s bad habit resurfaced again. ――I am sorry, Tak.u.mi-san. Austin has a habit of slowly and carefully observing that which he takes interest in~」
