''Then all those opposed to the engagement of Miss Fuyao and Princess Hildegard, the first princess of the Knight Kingdom of Restia, please raise your hands.

　No one raised a hand against the stern voice of Yumina.

'Then we unanimously recognize Princess Hildegard as our comrade. I hope that together we will support our husbands and be good wives and mothers.
'Thank you! I'll do my best to crush them!

　The other six fiancées applaud Princess Hilda as she bows her head with tears in her eyes. What the hell.
　There are eight of us in this room. It was me, all of my fiancés, and Princess Hildegarde. It seems that Princess Hilda's marriage was approved in this so-called "bride conference". But why am I, the party in question, sitting at the very end of the table?

You know what, for the millionth time, it doesn't take into account my intentions and all that?

　I get a little jittery and look at Yumina.

''Do you dislike Princess Hilda, Fuyuya-san?''
No, of course not.
So, are you unhappy with your appearance?
No way. I think it's cute.
What's his personality?
He's a nice guy, serious and willing to work hard for his people.
So there's something wrong with your birthplace or your country of origin?
Nothing to include. You know, Eumina and Lou are princesses too.
So it seems to me that everything is all right?
Ugh.

　With a smile on her face, Yumina cut off her question. When she looked at Princess Hilda, she turned bright red and looked down. There's certainly no reason to refuse........ But what is it? This "If you back off, you'll never get your head out of your ass! I had a feeling that
　I don't feel like I can beat one of them for free, but when you get to seven, I don't feel like I can say anything!
　Polygamy, if two wives scramble to be strong, how can a husband win?

Are you sure you're all right with that?
Otherwise, I'd have put my hand up in the air.
'...We think that the other fiancées, who like you, Winter Night, and who can be recognized as family, deserve a mate.

　Else and Linse open their mouths. How do you know that when you just met them? ........you mean Yumina's magical eye? I see.
　When the evil eye is activated, the color of a person's essence is seen as an aura. A person with a beautiful heart would be seen as sparkling, while a person with a guilty or malicious intent would be seen as a cloudy color.
　It is said to be able to detect the essence of the unconscious mind, but I don't know the details. Youmina also said that she judges based on color and sense.
　In other words, it is "somehow". However, because of this essential quality, she is able to distinguish between people who are "bad guys but actually good guys" and people who "act like good guys but are actually black-hearted. That Yumina is the one who beats the drum, so it must be true, but....

I 《I》 think this is a good opportunity. I think this is a good opportunity for me and Yumina-san to be a princess, but we are in the west. However, Hilda is the princess of the largest nation in the East, after what happened to Euron. If we have a connection between the West and the East, we have nothing to fear.

　Lou mentions something like that. It's kind of disturbing........
　It's true that if you have a strong pipe with Restia, you can be flexible about something in the east as well.......

''But.........''
'It's not clear. You should have more confidence in yourself. You're just like your sister-in-law says, you're irresistible!
Popularity...
Aren't they irresistible? Everyone here loves Winter Night, don't they?

　My face reddens at Sue's straightforward words. Oh no! I'm so happy and embarrassed!
　Mmmmmm......... I don't want to get too carried away and make these kinds of decisions, but........
　When I glanced at Princess Hilda, I clashed with her gaze that was anxiously looking at me. I don't want you to look like you're about to cry like that.

''........Okay. If that's okay with everyone.

　Wow, everyone gathered at Princess Hilda's place and gave her congratulations. Looking at the scene of kya-kya and ugh, I still don't feel like I can beat them at all. I feel a little anxious about the future.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this. It's a match with His Majesty the First King, but........
'Please, Hilda,' he said. From this I am your betrothed and first knight.

　Princess Hilda, or rather Hilda, smiles and turns her gaze to me. Let's not tell her that I was a little thrilled by her proud expression.

'All right. Hilda. So, when it comes to the match with His Majesty the First King, do you have a chance of winning?
''Honestly, I think it will be difficult. I think there's about a ten percent chance of picking up a win against your grandfather...

　That's low. I knew that old man was pretty strong. But even though it's only ten percent, it doesn't mean that he can't win at all.

''No, it's not a win that was taken away from his strength either, it just happened to be a combination of bad luck for them and good luck for us...''
That's what you meant by coincidence.
Yes.....

　Don't speak so bluntly, Sue. Look, you got me down.
　But on the other hand, I think if you're that close, your opponent could be caught off guard. If the old man comes at you with a lick in his hand, you might be able to take advantage of it and pick up a win.
　As I recall, the match was a battle where the weapon was a sword, no magic, and only physical ability was used.

''Fuyao-dono, can't you do something about it, that you can't?''
Hmmm... do you want to put powder in the tip of the blade to blindfold it, or put explosives in the handle? Do you want to 'enchantment' your weapon armor with auxiliary magic as often as possible?
Well, that's not really a very chivalrous way to win.

　Yes. Well, there's plenty of ways to do it. I'm just saying, you don't have to use magic directly. Huh...

"You look bad again, that I do...
You have some kind of clever idea. That's a relief.
Dependable and not-so-reliable...

　Don't be selfish. I'm not in the mood for anything so unscrupulous.
　This time.




　As soon as the match started, the attack of the first king who stepped in, Hilda was being hunted down. Although he was defending himself, he managed to duck, handle, flush and hold back the attacking wooden sword.

''What's going on! Is that how you feel about His Majesty the King!
''........I believe in Fuyao-sama. That if we move according to Fuyao-sama's words, we will definitely win!
You said it. Then let's do it!

　She further accelerated her attack moves and slammed her granddaughter with a storm of consecutive blows. Next, Hilda's defense was broken down. Even if she received it with her wooden shield, the impact would come to her arms. It's only natural that her movements would slow down as it accumulated.
　The only spectators in the underground training area were me and my fiancé and everyone else. The guards are waiting outside.
　I told Hilda to try to defend herself as much as possible and never to miss an opening in her opponent's path. The aim is to reverse the situation. Exploit the opponent's gap and end it with a single blow.
　Hilda pushes the wooden sword away with her shield and keeps her distance. She must be using a lot of strength. He was already breathing heavily.
　The old man in opposition seems to have a thin smile on his face, as if he is having a good time.

He's very strong, that he is. He is strong, that he is. It's a knight's sword, but you can also feel the fierceness of actual combat, that it is. If Hilda-dono is soft, then he is truly hard. Rather than a technique, it's a gorilla sword, that it is.....
But you're holding it together. I think we're in for a pretty good match.
"That's because he's on the defensive completely. But you can't win from that position. He will be crushed and defeated.

　Yae, Else, Lou and our three martial artists analyze the match. However, Lou has grown tougher too........ It's like a lie that he was trembling when he was attacked during the coup. Well, it's probably because he was too upset at that time.
　My fighting ability is a step below Yae and Else, but I'm still pretty good at it now. The way Yae and I fight has been mixed up, though, so it's pretty much become my own style.

It's about time. I hope you don't manage to let the opponent's momentary opening slip away, though.
But would His Majesty the First King give himself an opening? No matter how lowly he is and how many times he has to deal with his granddaughter...
We don't make them. We'll make you. I have to.

　Huh? I left Yumina with a look of
Focus on the magic. Fortunately, affordable videos were lying around on the internet, so it's not that hard to do.
　As a precaution, the first king rushed out to face Hilda. Now!
　An illusion of a moving image created by 'Mirage' is played about two meters behind Hilda.

''Huh?''

　His Majesty the First King's eyes widened and he stopped moving for a moment. Although she doesn't know what happened, Hilda, who had been waiting for that opening all along, shot her full strength wooden sword into His Majesty the First King's body.

''Guhuhu!

　If he was serious, his upper and lower body would have been split in half. As it was, His Majesty the First King collapsed to the ground. ''Alright!

Fuyuyo-san.
What?
'Who was that woman in the string-like swimsuit that was briefly visible behind Miss Hilda?

　On my phone's screen, I saw a gravure sister in a micro bikini posing sensationally. I don't know who she was, but I'm pretty sure it was a very racy swimsuit. She has wheat-colored skin and seductive eyes, and her style is bonkers, squeaky clean and powerful.

'I won! We won! Lady Winter's Night! I did it!

　I wave back to a delighted Hilda, who waves back at me. Everyone else is smiling and applauding, too, but they murmur in a small blur.

''Oh, to create an opening so easily...''
Men are....
"...annoying. Sis.
Your breasts are quite large....
'Is that the kind of swimwear you prefer? Mr. Fuyu?
'Huh? Where do you go on a winter's night?

　None of them are smiling in their eyes except Sue. I can't stay here any longer! It's the 36th hour!
　He jumps from the bleachers to the training field, well done! You move closer to Hilda. A cold gaze pierces you from behind, but don't turn around.

''Fuyou-sama! We've won! Now I can be with Fuyu-sama!

　Beside Hilda, who was rejoicing without caring about why her grandfather had created an opening, His Majesty the Prior King, who was squatting down, moaned in a small voice.

''Well done, you have defeated an eagle........ But the second and third eagles will stand in front of you two and further test you....
What demon king is this?

　I will cast a restoration spell on His Majesty the Prior King. Was this guy really the king of the Knight Kingdom? Oh, well, you said you were a son-in-law or something. You don't look like a knight.
　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find a way to make it work.

I've realized how inexperienced I am. I've learned a lot from my inexperience. I've learned your resolve. I will allow you to marry. I will not complain to the late son. From now on, you will be a Knight of Brunnhild, not Lestia.
Grandfather....
"Fuyao-dono, my granddaughter is the only one who can wield a sword, but I hope that you will be able to keep up the good work.
Okay, I understand. Don't worry.

　His Majesty the King bows his head.

''........So, bye. The girl in the swimsuit just now belongs to someone else! Again! I'd like to see that figure in my own eyes one more time!
Swimsuit?
''Ah........ His Majesty the First King. Since you're not here, may I leave you in the other room?
Oh, yes! Hilda, you should hear all sorts of preparations from the others. Then let's go! Lord Winter Night!

　His Majesty the First King is pulling me along with him. Don't you even complain about the illusion that caused the gap? I thought for a moment that maybe this person was planning to lose from the beginning.
　After that, His Majesty the First King worshipped me and made me transcribe a number of images of those types of gravure idols in "drawings". Where does that erotic power come from.....
　When I returned to my room, exhausted, everyone except Sue and Hilda was waiting for me and asked me a lot of questions. To sum it up, they asked me this and that about my preferences in women. Do I prefer big breasts, slender, erotic, etc.?
　And finally, they all wear those micro bikinis! I got down on my knees and asked him to give me a break. As expected, I can't let him do that, and it's too stimulating.
