……
"Rudy, I'm so happy today, it feels like a dream."
As the banquet ended, Silphi leaned against the railing, the bright moonlight illuminating her fair, smooth skin, while the autumn breeze stirred her silvery hair, making it appear even more translucent.
“Me too, Silphie.”
Rudeus put his arm around Sylphie's shoulders from behind and gently pulled her into his embrace.
Hilfi quietly rested her head against Rudeus's chest, nestled in his embrace, and slowly closed her eyes, feeling Rudeus's heartbeat.
"Hey, Rudy."
Hilfi whispered, "Rudy, do you love me?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Upon hearing this, Rudeus gently tapped Sylphie's head, then affectionately patted her little face. "Of course I love Sylphie."
"How perfunctory!"
Sylphie pouted, tiptoed slightly, and peered at Rudeus's face.
When Sylphie asked for a kiss, Rudeus didn't rush to kiss her. Instead, he reached out and pinched Sylphie's cheek.
Hilfi's face was small enough to be pinched from both sides with one hand. Under Rudeus's kneading, Hilfi's pink little mouth turned into an "O". As the hand slowly released, her cute round face returned to its original shape.
"Um……"
Seeing Rudeus having so much fun, Sylphie started to protest with "hmm hmm hmm" sounds, but she still complied. However, she wanted to hear more sweet words from Rudeus, but she was too shy to say them directly.
Unfortunately, people's joys and sorrows are not shared, and Rudeus only found it fun to sculpt faces.
"Hmph! Rudy just knows how to bully me..."
Annoyed by the pinch, Hilfi threw a cute little tantrum, gently punching Rudeus's chest twice with her pink fists, but then, worried about hurting him, she tenderly rubbed it a couple of times.
"Well?"
In an instant, Rudeus lifted Sylphie's cheeks with both hands, his eyes fixed on her clear, wine-red eyes, and a shy pink blush slowly rose on the girl's cheeks.
She closed her eyes and tiptoed to cooperate.
Feeling Silphie's warm breath, Rudeus kissed her in return.
The soft lips were slightly chilled by the autumn wind, and the tenderness on the tip of the tongue was both cool and hot.
……
"Cough cough."
A cold cough broke the silence of the night.
"You two are too cunning!"
Alice pushed open the glass door and stepped onto the terrace. She was wearing a bright red floor-length dress, and her white neck and wrists were adorned with silver and gemstone necklaces and bracelets carved with precious flowers and plants. Her fiery red hair was tied up high and secured with a silver hair crown inlaid with blue gemstones.
She held her head high, her already tall figure enhanced by a pair of white ivory-soled high heels, giving her an air of aristocratic elegance that surpassed her former wildness.
“Ai… Alice…”
Rudius was somewhat panicked. He thought to himself, even though Alice had already accepted Sylphie, why did it feel like he was doing something wrong when Alice caught him being intimate with Sylphie?
As Alice slowly approached, Sylphie felt a little uneasy. However, with her strength, dodging Alice's regular attacks wouldn't be a big problem, so she wasn't too worried about her safety. But whether Rudeus could escape safely was another matter entirely.
Therefore, I must protect Rudy!
Thinking this, Hilfi released Rudeus and stood in front of him.
"Miss Alice, I..."
"Oh!"
Just as Alice was walking forward, perhaps because she was walking too fast, she suddenly stepped on the hem of her skirt and fell straight forward.
Hilfi rushed over to help, and with her speed she could have easily caught Alice, but because she was in such a hurry, the sole of her ivory high heels broke off, and Hilfi also stumbled forward.
"bump."
With a muffled thud, under the moonlight, two people, one in red and one in white, collided heads.
"It hurts..."
Alice, being thick-skinned and tough, was fine and quickly got up from the ground, scratching her head awkwardly.
Instead, Hilfi knelt on the ground, covering her head, her forehead bruised and red, tears welling in her eyes.
"Waaaaah..."
Hearing the crying, Rudeus rushed over to check on her. Sylphie knew healing magic, so she shouldn't be injured.
Hilfi had her back to him, and even Alice was squatting down beside him with concern.
"Isn't Hilfiet alright now?"
Alice patted Silphie's head, and finding nothing amiss, she stood up with relief and reached out to Silphie to help her up, saying, "Then stand up."
"Waaah..."
Seeing that Sylphie didn't respond to Alice, Rudeus knelt down and ruffled Sylphie's hair, comforting her, "Alright, get up, Sylphie~"
"No, I need a kiss from Rudy before I'll get up!"
While acting coquettishly, Hilfi raised her eyebrows at Alice, as if to say, "Look, Rudy likes delicate girls."
"bump!"
As soon as Hilfi finished speaking, Alice flew into a rage.
After Boreas's iron fist struck her, a small bump appeared on Hilfi's head, and this time she really cried.
"Yes! I finally got it!"
Upon realizing she had hit her target, Alice jumped up excitedly.
In the month since she met Sylphie, whether it was a sneak attack or a battle at the Water God Style gym, Alice had never managed to hit Sylphie once.
Unexpectedly, the first time I hit Hilfiet, it was in this way.
"what!"
Because her high heels had ivory soles, they were quite fragile and couldn't withstand much movement. Before Rudius could stop her, both heels broke at the same time the moment Alice landed.
"Eh... Ah!"
Just as Silphie was recovering from the pain of being punched by Alice, she was pinned down by Alice again.
……
Somewhere beneath the Boreas family estate, a naked, chestnut-haired girl is hanging from iron bars.
Philip sat opposite her, arms crossed and legs crossed, occasionally glancing at the girl out of the corner of his eye while referring to the two documents in his hands.
"Doristina, your freedom is something you have to fight for yourself."
Philip put down the documents in his hand and walked away.

Chapter 245: Afternoon
……
"Illyr, if I succeed to the throne, what will Ariel be called again?"
"The Eldest Princess."
"Oh, right, it's the eldest princess."
……
Are you two alright?
Alice and Silphie bumped heads first, then Silphie deliberately provoked Alice and got punched, and finally Alice lost her footing and fell on top of Silphie. For two beautiful girls who were already adults, this was really against their image.
To be honest, it's a bit funny, but also quite adorable.
Rudeus quickly helped them both up. Sylphie didn't want to get her expensive dress dirty, so she got up from the ground without hesitation. But her high heel broke, and she looked at Rudeus with a pitiful expression. She took off her shoes and stepped barefoot on the floor.
"It's alright, we can just buy it for Silphie if she likes it."
While comforting Sylphie, Rudeus didn't neglect Alice. He turned around and brushed the dirt off Alice's skirt. However, since she was a Saint-level swordsman, even the fact that the heels of both of her high heels had fallen off didn't affect Alice's balance.
"Alice is quite impressive."
Rudius looked at Alice with an approving gaze, "As expected of the commander of the Royal Guard, you can maintain your balance even without heels."
"Hehe~"
Alice scratched her head and laughed heartily.
"Tsk tsk tsk,"
Philip clicked his tongue and slowly walked towards the three people in front of him. "You three seem to get along very well."
After saying that, he glanced at the high heels on the ground, somewhat puzzled, wondering if they had been fighting.
"It's getting colder, you should all go back inside."
Philip walked to the railing. "Rudius, stay."
Hilfi and Alice exchanged glances, then looked at Rudeus. After Rudeus nodded in acknowledgment, the two "fiancées" entered the room one after the other, and the servants at the door prepared new shoes for them.
"Carter has agreed to submit to Darius."
Rudius watched as Silphi and Alice walked away and leaned close to Philip, saying, "With Darius's strength, the Yerosnek family should have no problem reviving."
At this banquet, Carter and Darius gathered together. Boreas was only responsible for facilitating the meeting, mainly because he did not want to have too much contact with the Yerosnek family from the outside world. The person who mainly interacted with the Yerosnek family was Chancellor Darius.
"In this way, both Darius and the Yerosnek family owe the Bereas family a favor."
Philip chuckled and exhaled. "Also, get ready to take over the Nottos family."
"Take over the Nottos family?"
Rudius was somewhat puzzled. Although he knew that Pelemon had also received an invitation, his idea was to unite with the Notos family. After all, his father, Paolo, and Pelemon were brothers. If "taking over" were replaced with "uniting," it would be easier for Rudius to accept.
"Although it will be difficult, after all, even without Pilemon, the Notos family will still be difficult to deal with."
Philip slowly rubbed his palms together, his narrowed eyes revealing no emotion. "Princess Ariel probably won't intervene directly. After all, she wouldn't dare to act rashly after losing Pilemont's card. And Pilemont's two sons are no threat either; they're just good-for-nothings."
"The only one we need to worry about is Dilik."
Rudius did not continue to follow Philip's words, but instead chose to reveal his own thoughts, "I thought that my father-in-law summoned Pilemon because he wanted to unite with the Notos family, after all, Princess Ariel also sent a congratulatory gift."
Rudius found Philip's statement somewhat unacceptable. In his own opinion, the solution should be to unite the Notos family and Darius to put pressure on the Aiolos family in order to reclaim Lilith's political legacy.
"Ha, alliances are the most unreliable idea, especially in this capital city."
Philip smiled, turned around, gave Rudius a meaningful look, and then left.
"Enjoy the peace tonight, Rudeus. Tomorrow, the seas off the capital will be turbulent."
Rudius continued to lean on the railing, gazing at the moon, lost in thought.
The moonlight shone down, casting its light on the vast lawn of the manor, where the slightly withered grass blades swayed in the breeze.
"Hey, Isalte, this is the first time we've spent time together like this, isn't it?"
Albert lay on Izuru's lap, enjoying the softness and comfort of the girl's lap pillow.
Izuru frowned slightly but did not respond. She cupped Albert's cheek in her hand and began to gently rub his handsome face with a bit of stubble.
How dare you call me by my first name?
Izuru smiled and said, "I'm your master, you know."
"cut,"
Albert closed his eyes and said relaxedly, "He's even younger than me."
"It's only for a few days!"
Izuru pouted slightly, looking a little annoyed, and said to herself, "As Albert's mentor, I... um..."
Before she could finish speaking, she felt a warmth on her lips; Albert's mouth was already pressed against hers.
