"After all, what Belserion said was reasonable and well-founded."
Timalia: "Ten years isn't really unacceptable; you won't notice it once you're older."
Brandish: "And... that Hyunaz over there doesn't actually look that young, um... he has a teenage vibe."
Jelf: "Well, to be fair, I think Belserion is right!"
"So, Eileen, are you going to give in or not?"
Eileen: "Your Majesty!!! What the hell am I? I'm not Eileen from that world! And! Aren't you a little too free? Why are you suddenly so active in the world channel?"
Maldogil: "I guess the master is happy because he knows we're coming back soon."
Hades: "Pah, you demons really know how to pat yourself on the back."
Jelf: "I just came up to offer some suggestions. If you don't like what I'm saying, I'll just leave..."
August: "Well, I'd also like to say something fair..."
Eileen: "Get out!!!"
August: "Oh, oh..."
The aerial display continues.
"In short, I was just offering a possibility; personally, I don't think it's a good idea for you to marry into that Sebil Kingdom."
"That guy's past behavior wasn't exactly exemplary. Of course, it all depends on your wishes. If you're willing, I have nothing to say. If you're not, please remember my words!"
At this point, Berserion straightened his massive frame.
"No matter what, no one can force you to do anything against your will. I'm protecting royalty! That doesn't include Dylan."
"If you push me too far, I'll tear that bastard to pieces!"
Upon hearing these words, Belserion exuded an immense aura of power, though he couldn't maintain that posture for more than a few seconds before his muscles relaxed due to the pain from his injuries.
Looking at the giant dragon before her, Eileen shook her head with a helpless smile.
"You should go back and recover first."
"Ahem, anyway, that's the gist of it," Belserion said, clearing his throat twice.
Eileen nodded upon hearing this.
"I know, let me think about it."
"Well then, I'll take my leave."
Having said this, Bercelion turned around, flapped his wings, and flew straight away from the back garden.
[Watching Belserion's departing figure, Eileen narrowed her eyes slightly.]
After a moment of contemplation, Eileen waved her hand behind her.
Soon, a female knight in armor strode forward.
[Then he knelt on one knee before Eileen and bowed his head:]
【"Queen!"】
"Heiner, go and relay my order. Tell them..."
"Let the delegation from the Kingdom of Sebil go back as soon as they've finished their tour. Our kingdom is preparing for war, and things aren't peaceful in the city."
"If they insist on staying, we will not guarantee their safety."
She paused here, then waved her hand.
"That's fine then."
Hearing Eileen's command, the female knight Heiner paused slightly.
[A somewhat uncertain question: "Does the Queen mean... to send them back?"]
"More or less," Eileen said.
"I understand, but is this really a good idea?"
Seemingly understanding Heiner's concerns, Eileen nodded gently: "Do as I say. Anyone who disagrees can come find me!"
"Go ahead."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Heiner withdrew, and the garden fell silent once more.
Only Eileen remained, pacing back and forth in the garden.
After a long pause, she took a deep breath.
"Let's go check on that brat."
[Then they walked towards the reception hall.]
As Eileen gazed at this scene in the sky, she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
He held his forehead with one hand: "It's all over, it's all over..."
"Could it be that the me from that other world... really fell for that brat?!"
Chapter Sixty-Seven: The natural barrier falls, the dragon horde attacks!
Eileen watched the scene on the sky with immense anxiety.
to be frank.
Eileen was feeling very conflicted at that moment.
On one hand, there's the possibility that the other version of himself in another world would repeat the same mistakes by marrying Noel for political reasons.
That is absolutely impossible.
Even I myself, if I had to do it all over again, would absolutely never make that choice again.
What kingdom? What people? What righteous cause?
None of these are within Eileen's consideration.
If she could do it all over again, Eileen would just want to slap that bastard to death.
but……
If we don't do this, are we really going to marry Natsu?
Um... perhaps her own experiences influenced Eileen's judgment.
This outcome was something she found incredibly difficult to accept.
But her counterpart in that world hasn't experienced these things, so what choice will she make?
Eileen: "Things are starting to get unpredictable with the component library..."
……
……
In the sky screen.
Eileen walked across the bustling corridor and then pushed open the door to the reception room.
The first thing that catches the eye is a mountain of plates, and...
[That's Natsu, shirtless, doing push-ups!]
[Well-defined muscles filled Eileen's vision.]
The faint smell of sweat in the air, like hormones, stimulated Eileen's senses.
Shaking her head, Eileen almost wanted to slap herself.
What am I thinking? That's just a child!
However... this physique doesn't seem like that of a child. Whose child has such explosive muscles?
"Hmm? I think I'm getting the wrong idea again?"
Eileen kept cursing herself under her breath.
"Eileen? Is your meeting over?"
Suddenly, Natsu's voice rang out, drawing Irene back to reality.
"Yes, it's all taken care of. By the way... what's this?"
Eileen took a step forward and walked over gracefully, her gaze sweeping over Natsu's current actions, and she asked with some doubt.
"Oh! It's just a post-meal exercise to aid digestion. I do this every time I eat."
"It can aid digestion."
Natsu stood up from the ground, wiped the sweat off his body with a towel, and then put on his clothes.
[Then he jumped around a couple of times on the spot and began to speak with great enthusiasm.]
"That feels much better now, otherwise it was so uncomfortable."
