When Leon and his friends are in the royal palace.
At Baron Bartfaultâs mansion, Noelle could be seen in a wheelchair.
The idyllic scenery of the territory was soothing to Noelle, who had been seriously injured.
Noelle survived thanks to the use of a high performance medical capsule, but she needed rehabilitation afterward.
She moved from the Republic to Leonâs parentsâ house, where she is recuperating.
Noelle, in her wheelchair in the garden of the mansion, talks to Livia behind her.
It was Livia who was pushing the wheelchair.
âOlivia-san is an idiot. If Iâd died there, there wouldnât have been any trouble.â
Noelle couldnât understand why Olivia was so desperate to save her own life. She felt indebted to her for saving her life, but she could have had the option of not helping her.
Livia smiles as if in trouble.
âAt that time, I was so absorbed that I didnât have time to think about anything else. But I donât regret saving you.â
âWhy?â
âIf Noelle-san dies, Leon-san will be sad.â
Livia says that she wanted to help for Leonâs sake, and Noelle looks up at the sky, thinking that she is no match for her.
âYou must really like Leon.â
âYesâ
Livia answers immediately and pushes the wheelchair and continues to talk to Noelle.
âHow is life at Leonâs parentsâ house?â
âIâm grateful that everyone is so kind. I guess Iâm just happy that Colin, Leonâs brother, has attached me.â
âIâm relieved to see youâre doing well. Howâs the rehab going?â
âItâs tough. Iâm almost ready to walk, though. But Creare said that in the spring Iâll be able to live normally.â
âIâm gladâ
Livia was happy to see that Noelle, who had almost died, had recovered so well, even if she needed rehabilitation.
Then, Ange comes to them.
âThere you are. Both of you should be happy. Leon has been offered the title of Marquis. I hear the ceremony will be a grand one.â
âLeon-san becomes Marquis?â
Ange is pleased but Livia looks troubled.
Ange understood why Livia was troubled.
âLeon wonât be happy about it, but itâs necessary. But it hurts to have to carry all that extra baggage.â
âBaggage?â
âIâll explain that later. More importantly, Noelle has been accepted into the schoolâs third grade next term.â
Noelle was surprised to hear that she could attend the school.
âIs it okay? Iâm a priestess, though?â
Due to Noelleâs unique position, she thought that she would be forced into some territory in the future. She was a priestess of the sacred tree sapling and the future solution to the energy problem.
Itâs best to push her somewhere to protect her and keep her from escaping.
Angeâs expression turns a little grim.
âIn a way, itâs thanks to Leon. No, thanks to Luxion? Your value has gone down a bit in the kingdom. The adults have more to worry about than the sacred tree.â
Noelle nodded her head, not understanding, and this time Ange pushed the wheelchair.
âDonât worry about it. You can enjoy your life in the Kingdom.â
âWill it be fun?â
âItâs up to you, but I guarantee youâll have a lot of fun if youâre on Leonâs side.â
Ange smiled at her, and Livia smiled too.
âIndeed, itâs fun to be near Leon-san. ââ In various means.â
Only at the end was the tone of his voice different, but Noelle, in her wheelchair, could not see Liviaâs face.
Noelle looks up at the sky.
The sunâs shine is warm and itâs beginning to look more and more like spring.
âFun, huh? Thatâs right. Then Iâll have fun, too.â
The three of them went to Leonâs parentsâ house and continued to talk about him.
