Chapter 453.1

Chapter 453.1 \nIs this alright…?

\n(Are you stupid or what, I’m the Sacred Beast governing this country, ya know? I’m much more important than the King, okay? I will have you know that I even changed this fellow’s diapers.)

No, I don’t think diapers have anything to do with this.Leon-sama, please don’t expose the diaper story that is probably black history for him while eating sweets with a smug look on your face for the sake of His Majesty’s honor.… Or rather… this was telepathy, right??It’s a good thing I couldn’t think of a way to react and kept quiet, but what if I had mentioned the diaper story out loud!?

(Leon-sama, please stop reading people’s minds. And also, please don’t use telepathy out of nowhere, it startled me!)(Oh? Sorry, sorry. I don’t usually use telepathy with people who are not my contractors because it would surprise them, but I figured you wouldn’t have a problem with it.)\nDon’t just figure it, geez!But it’s a fact he was protecting me.I cannot waste Leon-sama’s kindness.I clasped my hands tightly.

“… As a citizen of the Doristan Kingdom, I want to do what I can to help. However, I don’t want to take advantage my Sacred Beasts just because they are under contract with me.”

I made firm eye contact with His Majesty, who was looking at me with a serious face, and continued.\n“… I understand that this is selfish of me. However, the reason I made a contract with them was not to use them. Now that I have made a contract with them, I want to be there for them and also do my best to protect them.”“You want to protect them?”“Yes. I am well aware that there is only so much I can do. But if I can protect them from people’s intentions, I want to protect do my best for them.”“Heh…”

His Majesty looks at me with amusement.Is… is this alright? Isn’t this a crime of disrespect, after all?

“Well, she’s quite a determined young lady. She’s Stewart’s and Anrietta’s daughter, indeed. What do you say, Lily?”\n“I won’t forgive anyone who makes Cristea feel cry.”
