Departure for the Fief
“No~~ No~~ I want to go too~~”
The afternoon before Yuno was to depart for the Teshidanikana fief, Yuria was packing with her maids when Marie came into her room, crying loudly and rolling on the floor.
“Marie! You still have three months before you come of age! Until then, you absolutely can’t do as you please!”
“What’s the difference between being 18 years and 9 months or 19? I want to go with big brother too~~”
“Oh, really!! Are you a child? Why are you throwing such a tantrum? Isabella? Can you calm Marie down… Isabella?”
Yuria turned to her eldest daughter Isabella to calm Marie, but stopped mid-sentence.
“I’m going too~~ I want to go with Yuno too~”
“Hey! You’re supposed to look after Marie here! If you go too, who’s going to take care of her? Stop saying such nonsense!!”
While Isabella and Marie threw a fit and Yuria scolded them, Yuno came in and tried to calm Yuria.
“Haha… Mom. Just let Isabella and Marie come too. Marie’s coming-of-age ceremony isn’t far off, and if there’s any remaining education, we can just bring a tutor. I’ll talk to Brother Prinz about it.”
“Yuno!!”
Yuria shouted at Yuno, and Isabella and Marie ran to him, showering his cheeks with kisses.
“Yay~ Yuno, I love you~ smooch smooch”
“Big brother~ Thank you~~ I love you~~ smooch smooch”
Yuria grabbed Yuno’s hand and dragged him into her bedroom. Once they were alone, she started scolding him fiercely.
“Hey! What do you mean, taking Isabella and Marie too? Did you touch them too?”
“N-no! Of course not. I just thought I’d be lonely without my sister and little sister…”
“Be honest. Why do you really want to bring them? Hm?”
“Ah! Really, it’s nothing like that. It’s just better when the whole family is together. Why do you insist on keeping them apart, Mom?”
At Yuno’s question, Yuria twisted her thighs awkwardly.
“O-of course… What if they find out about us… I was planning to have you all to myself every night when we got there… hmph~”
Yuno hugged the adorably sulking Yuria tightly to comfort her.
“Hehe, don’t worry about that. I’ll put soundproofing and locking spells on my bedroom, so only you, Eliza, and Catherine can get in.”
“Pii~ Fine… But really, nothing happened with them, right?”
“O-of course! I promised never to lie to you, Mom.”
“…Alright. Then I’ll allow it for them too… but you be careful!!”
As she eyed him suspiciously and left the room, Yuno wiped cold sweat from his brow, remembering what had happened the night before.
The previous night, Isabella and Marie had come to Yuno’s room, and he welcomed them into the sitting room.
They both looked a little sulky, but since he was about to leave for the fief in a couple days and wouldn’t see them for a while, Yuno greeted them with a smile.
But his expression soon changed.
“Hey! Yuno! What’s this?”
Isabella shoved something at Yuno, and when he looked closely, his eyes widened.
“H-how did you get this?”
It was a picture of him and Eliza sharing a deep kiss. Yuno was shocked.
He had revealed at the state council that he and Eliza were dating, but that was strictly confidential, so there was no way the princesses, who were barred from the council, could have known.
“Hmph! That’s not the point, is it? You kept it a secret from Isabella and me and dated Eliza?”
“S-so, what do you want?”
“If you don’t want Mom to find out, you have to take us with you to the fief!”
“If Mom found out her precious son was being taken away by Eliza, she might even slap Eliza’s cheek, right? Hehehe.”
Yuno found their empty threats amusing.
‘After having sex with Eliza in front of Mom, what are they even trying… They’re just putting on a show.’
“Do whatever you want. By the way, Mom already knows. She’s already given her blessing, so tell her if you want, I don’t care.”
“W-what?”
“Ugh, big brother!!”
Yuno ignored their protests and headed to his bedroom, but Isabella’s next words made him stop in his tracks.
“Hmph! Then what if we show this to Diane? Do you think she’ll just let it go?”
Yuno’s neck creaked as he turned around to see Isabella and Marie grinning in victory.
“Ah~ Let’s not do that. If Diane found out…”
‘She’d cause a huge scene. Mom barely managed to stop her from following me to the fief, and if she found out about Eliza…’
Gulp.
Yuno knew how much Diane doted on him, and while he sometimes liked it, most of the time it was just troublesome and tiring.
“Hehe, we don’t want Diane to come to your fief either.”
“So just cooperate with us. Two is better than three, right?”
In the end, Yuno surrendered to Isabella and Marie.
That’s why today, he told Yuria he’d be bringing Isabella and Marie too.
‘Well, before things got serious with Mom, I really did want to bring my sister and Marie… Sigh~ I’ll just have to make sure the soundproofing is perfect.’
Of course, bringing the sisters didn’t mean Yuno would give up sex with his mom, so he started preparing thoroughly.
The day of departure for the fief, many people came to see them off at the Adria castle teleportation circle.
Crown Prince Prinz, Crown Princess Hyria, Second Princess Consort Rachel, Count Lichtenauer, and many others gathered to wish Yuno well.
“Yuno! If things get tough, you can always come back to the capital. There are plenty of people who’d love to govern a county.”
“Yes, brother. Don’t worry. Isabella is already an intermediate mage, so she can use teleportation magic herself. If anything comes up, we’ll return to the capital right away. You’re not going to block my teleport requests, are you?”
“Haha, you’ve gotten cheeky as you’ve grown. Take care… Your Majesty the Empress, please look after Yuno. I hope you enjoy the fresh air and have a restful stay.”
“Yes, Crown Prince. Thank you for your kind words. And Crown Princess, please continue to support the Crown Prince.”
“Yes, Your Majesty. I’ll do my best, though I’m lacking. Sniff… Your Highness the Third Prince… take care. Please be safe.”
Hyria eventually shed tears as she saw Yuno off.
Meanwhile, Rachel hugged Eliza, promising to visit often, and Lichtenauer, regretting parting with his beloved disciple, urged Yuno to keep training with her.
“Your Highness the Third Prince, you must train Princess Eliza even more strictly. If you could defeat Princess Fiona of Leon, I’m sure you can do it.”
“Yes… I understand, Captain. Don’t worry.”
‘I’ll train her strictly every night. Hehehe, in many ways.’
The Crown Prince also hugged Isabella and Marie and gave them some parting words before stepping back.
“Teleportation is ready! Your Majesty the Empress and Your Highness the Prince, please step up.”
At the palace mage’s announcement, Yuno, Yuria, Isabella, Marie, Eliza, Catherine, Head Maid Madeleine, Baron Kimberly (who would teach Marie), Yuno’s knight Cordelia, and about 20 others stepped onto the teleportation circle.
“Whew~ It’s a large circle that can handle up to 30 people, but with all the luggage, it was close. Now, activating the teleportation between Adria and the County of Graim.”
The magic circle beneath their feet flashed, making everyone feel a bit dizzy. Their vision went dark for a moment, then brightened.
“Your Majesty the Empress, Your Highness the Prince, welcome to Graim.”
Apparently notified in advance, Count Graim greeted them at the teleportation circle in front of his castle.
Yuno and his group rested for a day in Graim, then set out for Yuno’s fief early the next morning in carriages prepared by the count.
