Chapter 79: My Cousin’s Spartan Training

<hr>

 

From this morning, Ryuze’s condition was strange.

After he stayed all night in my bed and became healthy, he then behaved suspiciously.

 

(He’s giving me the stink eye! Is it because I forcibly lay him down on the bed!?)

 

I was glad that he’s fine now, but I didn’t want him to hold any grudge because of yesterday.

 

(Ryuze-niisama seems to have a sticky character.)

 

On one occasion, he seemed to persistently keep watch over me.

 

[…Ano, onii-sama? Are you alright?]

[N? I’m fine.]

[Is, is that so? For the time being, I’m glad that your condition has improved.]

[Thank you for taking care of me overnight.]

 

After he said so, he approached me and dropped a kiss as light as a feather on my forehead.

 

[…!? Uo, onii-sama!?]

[N? What’s the matter, Britney?]

 

No, it’s not “what’s the matter”, just now, you kissed me right?

I wanted to retort, but for him it might just be an expression of gratitude.

 

(If I pointed it out, won’t I seem like an overconscious woman?)

 

Kissing as gratitude… being an ikemen sure was advantageous.

 

[…It’s nothing.]

[Is that so. By the way, Britney, you said that you’re starting to diet again?]

[Ee, maa… I’ve gained 10 kilograms, and the princess ordered me to lose weight.]

[Then I would like to help you. It’s as a thank you for yesterday.]

[Bu, but…]

[I am also reflecting. I know that you eat sweets as stress relief. Since it might be because of me, it felt awkward, so I did not pay attention until now. I think your weight is still within acceptable range since it’s not terribly obese like before… but if you’re struggling with that, then I am also responsible.]

[Onii-sama…]

 

It was reassuring that my cousin would be helping me with my diet.

From that day, my diet started in between work. As for the eyelashes, it’s fine now since Angela had accepted it.

 

[By the way, what is onii-sama’s job?]

[A big job just ended yesterday. In a few days, I will meet with officials to deal with aqueducts, but until then I can afford a little time off. Besides, if I stay in my room, it will be likely that I will be raided by young ladies living in this city.]

[…I understand. Thank you for your consideration.]

 

The two of them moved to the castle’s backyard and started running. Since there’re no people around us, it’s fine to exercise as much as we want.

 

[Britney, you should keep training just like how you did in our territory. We’ll also train self-defense techniques.]

[…You are right.]

 

While training, the distance to my cousin was close.

He held my feet down while I trained my abs, or he was my opponent during our self-defense sessions… he was helpful, but the contents of the training were pretty much Spartan.\n 

After half a day of training was done, I was able to do the entire training menu successfully.

 

[Try your best, Britney.]

 

As he said so, Ryuze stretched his hand and stroked my hair. He got close to me and I looked up at him awkwardly when I remembered the kiss on the forehead.

 

(…This Ryuze-niisama is so blatantly gentle. It’s going to rain heavily tonight.)

 

When I entered the building from the backyard with tired body, Angela was standing near the entrance while her kuroko maids accompanied her.

 

[Britney, you seem to be working hard on your diet. In this manner, can you lose weight properly?]

[Ye, yes…]

 

I replied as I stared at her face. It’s because I felt a sense of discomfort from her eyes.

 

(Angela, you clump the eyelash extensions too much-!)

 

I bet she wanted to try the fake eyelashes I gave her.

For the techniques, it was my maid Maria who taught the kuroko maids, so they may have practiced it as soon as they memorized it.

However, attached to the princess’ eyelashes, a large amount of extensions were sticking like nori and hung down due to gravity. She must have thought that it would be better if more amounts were used, but it looked unnatural.\n 

(I know she wants to emphasize her eyes, but since her eyes are small, they’re hidden by the extensions.)

 

I honestly expressed my opinion to Angela with a soft voice.

Since I said so softly, Ryuze shouldn’t have heard it.

 

[Your Highness, you may have attached too many eyelash extensions. Since it appeared long and thick now, it doesn’t look that good.]

[…Tha, that!]

[Afterwards, why don’t we determine just the right amount?]

[That’s right. Please.]

 

Angela blushed while looking at Ryuze who was behind me.

 

(…Angela, you too?)

 

I was no longer surprised by the enchantment spell that my cousin exuded.

<hr>

TN: RyuzexAngela ship? That’s one ship I wouldn’t support. They’re just incompatible.
