Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! Chapter 157

After Bear-sama ran off with an amazing energy, we also boarded the carriage and headed for the Northern Country.
In the carriage, the topic became Bear-sama from earlier.

"Just what you'd expect from Leafisama's bloodline. I might be no match for him when it comes to strength."

"He was truly amazing. Moreover, not only did he demonstrate strength, but also speed."

The twins are praising Bear-sama.
Probably, they got excited at seeing another person stronger than themselves in a long time.

"In the past, Lute appeared slender, Lucian… Ah, he's my younger brother, that child resembles him. Perhaps, we should come to the next tournament?"

The tournament is to choose the representative of that country.
I'm not really interested in representatives, but it looks interesting.
Shall I ask a little bit?

"Grandmother, can only the Northern Country's n.o.bility appear at the tournament?"

"Ara? Lillina, are you interested? Let's see~, unless it's different from the past, aside from the fight to choose the country's representative, there's also general entry. In the past that person debuted as a general entry and achieved overwhelming victory. By the way, if you achieve victory, you can get what you want. At that time, he was allowed to marry me~."

What's with grandfather and grandmother's romance being suitable for the stage?
And grandfather was madly in love with grandmother, huh.
It's a country where might makes right, everyone should have been enthusiastic at grandfather partic.i.p.ating as a general entry.
Listening to grandmother's words, Allen-kun asked a question.

"Does general entry mean anyone from other countries can partic.i.p.ate?"

"Yeah, there's no restrictions. I wonder if there'll be quite a few splendid partic.i.p.ants? I suppose if you achieve a high rank, you'll find employment in the Northern Country, but of course it's useless if there's a problem with personality. That kind of place is unsparing. I wonder if you could get a nice position, Allen-kun?"

Allen-kun is nodding.
I wonder if he'll perhaps partic.i.p.ate?
How nice~, I want to partic.i.p.ate too, but I wonder if it's hopeless.
Grandmother noticing my expression said.

"Lillina, do you want also want to partic.i.p.ate? There's gender segregation, but same as me, you're alright fighting both men and women, right? Isn't it alright, go ahead and partic.i.p.ate. But, be prepared, okay? For various things."

Various… things?
I'm terrified by that line.

"If Lillinoneesama partic.i.p.ates, obviously I will too! I shall eliminate any enemy who may stand In Lillinoneesama's way."

I'm happy about your feelings, but I don't understand the meaning of partic.i.p.ating if you eliminate everything in my way.
If possible, I'd like to fight strong people… I wonder if I can fight Bear-sama?
Ah, but Bear-sama is a n.o.ble entry, what a shame.

While we were getting excited in the carriage, thanks to grandfather's loud bearing, we arrived at the Northern Country safely.
We're now heading for grandmother's old home, granduncle's mansion.
Has Bear-sama arrived safely? … Since he ran, has he reached yet?
In the meantime, the carriage stopped.
Grandfather announced "We've arrived."

"Look, we've arrived. It seems we'll be able to finally take it easy."

Grandmother seems to be in a good mood at seeing her old home after a long time.
Someone came to us from the mansion after we got off the carriage.

"Older sister, it's been a long time. You're as beautiful as ever, as expected of 'Fairy Princess'."

Saying older sister, so he's my granduncle, Lucian-sama.
And that person said something interesting.
Yes! What's with 'Fairy Princess'?

Granduncle, who greeted grandmother with a smile, once again said something interesting upon seeing grandfather.

"Oh, if it isn't brother-in-law. You're as stylish as ever. Moreover, that strength, has it still not waned? 'Dragon G.o.d'-dono. I'd like to request a spar by all means."

Haa, he's 'Dragon G.o.d'?
I feel like I'm beginning to understand.
For the time being, 'Dragon G.o.d' is probably because of grandfather's strength, but why 'Fairy Princess'.
Certainly, grandmother is beautiful, but… a fairy?

Suddenly, grandfather and grandmother who were happily greeting granduncle met my eyes.
Then granduncle came closer to me.

"Are you Lillina? Oh, you're truly the granddaughter of my older sister… How adorable~. My only child is a man, and my grandchildren are all boys, I'm envious. Besides, as the granddaughter of 'Fairy Princess', you aren't just adorable, right?"

"Now, Lucian. Lillina is astonished. Lillina, sorry for surprising you."

"No, it's alright, grandmother. It's nice to meet you, granduncle, I'm Lillina."

Granduncle smiled broadly at my greeting, and he began speaking to others as well.

"Oh, are you Lillina's friends? Everyone is so thin~~, alright! Let's make your bodies st.u.r.dy while you're in this country. Eat a lot and get big."

Thin… they're normal, right?
Certainly, granduncle resembles grandmother, but his body is big and st.u.r.dy.
I'd dislike it if everyone got muscular while in the Northern Country.
