It was completely unexpected.

In his anticipation, Fei might be angry or show obvious resistance. In any case, for a girl, it must be a big blow for a boy who has been with him all the time to have such a good impression of another girl. Therefore, after Fei coldly exposed the truth, Hailiga was ready to make her angry and make her happy.

However, Faye just said what sounded natural in a calm tone - and then continued to eat the cake with her head down, as if nothing had happened.

“…… I thought you were going to be angry......" There was a moment of silence, only the crisp sound of knives and forks colliding with the plates. It wasn't until Helriga opened her mouth to speak that Faye stopped eating.

"Alas...... You don't think about these things at all. Fei sighed helplessly, "Let's put it that way...... If, I mean, you and Princess Elfin start falling in love too...... Will you snub me because of this? Will you see her more than I do, and let go of all our past bonds? ”

“…… How can it be. If you had to choose one, it would be you. Heliga smiled bitterly, his eyes firm, and he was the only one he could absolutely assure him of - not only out of emotional considerations, but also out of his own sense of responsibility and dignity.

"yes...... Since that won't happen, what else do I have to worry about? Faye shrugged.

“…… You really want to open it. The corners of Heliga's mouth twitched, it was too weird, "It's just, why did you choose this time to ask?" ”

"Because I think I can confirm it now."

"What about after that?"

"That'...... It's nothing. Faye stopped and looked at Hyliga in confusion, "If you want to pursue her...... That's up to you, of course. Pursuing a princess of a country, well, it looks difficult...... You don't have the side that attracts the brilliance of motherhood like Joshua......"

"What are you talking about...... And why is Joshua's name mentioned? Heliga protested weakly.

"Because, that's the conclusion that came from his affairs." Phyye explained, "Helliga ...... What do you think of Princess Corotia's relationship with Estelle? ”

"The two of them......" Heliga thought for a moment, thinking of the adventures of Estelle and the others during their time in Liber, and what happened between Kross and Estier, "It should be pretty good...... Oh, no, if it's a friend, it's the highest level of friendliness. ”

Fei nodded in agreement, "So...... What do you think if the two of them confessed to each other, especially Princess Colotia, to Estelle that they liked Joshua too? - Especially, during the time when Estelle was grieving over Joshua's departure. ”

“…… How could such a strange assumption be made. As soon as Heiliga showed a gesture of resistance, he was glared at fiercely by the Fei's side, so he had to think about this question that seemed strange to him, "In that case...... Well, although it is not very good, their relationship should break down. After all...... Estelle liked Joshua so much......"

"Alas......" Fei sighed and said in a natural tone, "Sure enough, you don't understand anything." ”

"What?" Heliga was stunned, "Isn't their relationship going to break down?" ”

"In general, definitely...... But the two of them, no. Faye said in an affirmative tone, "Because Estelle loves ...... It was Joshua, who had always been with him, who knew all about her shortcomings and was willing to tolerate him—and what Princess Clotea liked, was his other side—who was still unique to girls who were not Estelle, and that determination to protect Estelle. ”

"Wait...... How do you say as if Princess Kolotia really liked Joshua? The more Helliga listened, the more wrong it became.

"Because it's true." Fei spread his hands, "This is not something I made up...... This is what I overheard when Princess Colotia and Estelle were chatting privately. ”

"When?"

"It was the second time we went to Liber...... In that school in Luan. Fei replied, "Didn't you just investigate the 'White Shadow' created by Bloblan?" ”

"That's the thing." "But does it have anything to do with us?" ”

"Absolutely. Later, I thought about this for a long time...... Whether it's in or in the small talk with other girls, this situation should be the end of a relationship breakdown, but the two of them give people the feeling that they won't. Even if there is a short-lived rivalry because of Joshua, they will not turn against each other—and they will not use any strange tricks, but will fight for emotional victory with dignity. And they're all very confident, don't you think? ”

"Confidence?" Heliga was even more confused.

"Yes......" Phi sighed, as if distressed by Heliga's stupidity, and said it herself, "Estelle's confidence is her understanding of Joshua...... Kloss's confidence in herself was her own charm - neither of them had any reason to think that they would lose, until after Joshua left, Princess Colotia found that her understanding and affection for Joshua was far inferior to Estelle's, and voluntarily threw in the towel. But at the end of the day, they never had Joshua Adam their own...... Instead, treat it as an independent person. There was no deliberate flattery, just to make Joshua realize that they were originally good. And Estelle has the courage to win in the end, no matter who robs Joshua with her—"

"So......" Heiliga seemed to understand a little.

"yes...... She was right. In Joshua's eyes, she was the most special person. Although I'm not sure he didn't have feelings for others. Fei nodded, "You should understand now, right?" I am Estelle, and Your Highness Elphin is Princess Kolotia—you are Joshua. I have the same confidence in you as Estelle did in Joshua, and no one can erase me from your heart completely. So, what else do I have to worry about and be angry about? ”

For some reason, Hailiga felt that Faye who said this looked very handsome.

"But......" he said weakly, his momentum completely suppressed, "didn't Kolotia and Estelle say they were going to compete?" ”

"That's because...... Liber's law is monogamous. Speaking of this, Fei looked a little shy, "But the nobles of the empire ...... Aren't you without this trouble......"

- yes. Imperial nobles could be allowed to have multiple partners—Helriga snapped into his mind.

"Wait, that means -"
