The Falsely Executed Marquis’ Daughter Wants to Live Peacefully with Fluffy God

Is His Royal Highness the Dauphin with Charlotte Campbell-sama today?

If they truly loved each other, I would leave them alone, but they never were.

The one His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really loves is my sister Rio. ......

If Charlotte had not seduced His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with her "Demonic Enchantment," he would not have given up on Rio yet.

That would have been a nuisance. ......

I know where they always have lunch.

Though, I don't have any particular business with them.

Under normal circumstances, I would not even approach them, but today I have business with Sir Will, the knight who is the Crown Prince's personal escort.

At a quiet gazebo in the courtyard. That is where they usually have lunch.

"I made sandwiches today."

"Lottie's homemade? It looks delicious."

Though, technically, I know it was made by Charlotte-sama's maid.

I happened to see her in the kitchen, but Charlotte was just sitting there, complaining.

Well, it doesn't matter.

I approached Sir Will, who was waiting at a distance, and spoke to him.

"Sir Will. Is Rick having lunch with Charlotte-sama again today?"

Sir Will bowed and straightened his back.

"Siegfried-sama," he said, "what can I do for you? Is there something I can relay to His Highness?"

"No. I have something I wish to discuss with you today."

"With me? What is it?"

"I don't feel comfortable talking here. Would you like to change places?"

Sir Will looked puzzled.

"But I am his highness's bodyguard. I can't leave his side, so if you need me, I'll be here."

He is faithful to his duties. A natural reaction for a knight. ......

"I won't take up too much of your time. And Rick is strong. I'm sure he'll be fine if you leave his side for a little while. You know him better than anyone."

"I have no doubt that His Highness is strong, but unforeseen circumstances can arise at any time. If you insist, I will be happy to visit at a later date."

Sir Will was still adamant.

He is quite stubborn. Would it be better to wait for a later date, as he said?

"I'll escort the Crown Prince for you. Go on, Yuri."

"Master?"

I didn't expect Master to show up, but looks like I'm in luck.

"Master Tojurou, the Sword Saint of the Wind!?"

You're surprised huh. Oh that's right. Master is the dream of every knight in this country.

"Are you dissatisfied with my skill?"

"No, I am not. There is no knight in this country who can match you. But ......"

Sir Will glanced at the crown prince.

"If the Crown Prince notices, I'll make a good excuse for him. Go quickly. Lunch break is short."

I bowed to Master.

"Thank you, Master."

"Oh. You can thank me with dumplings."

After school, I'm going to stop by the "Peace and Harmony" with Master.

"I'm going to be away from my duties for a while, Master. Please take good care of his highness for me while I am away from my duties for a while."

Sir Will also bowed to Master.

I went with Sir Will to a grove of trees a short distance away from the gazebo.

I had set up a ward around this area a while ago, so there would be no need to worry about being overheard.

"Siegfried-sama. What is it that you wish to talk to me about?"

"Sir Will. Why did you become Rick's knight escort?　I thought you were planning to join ・・・・・ Royal Guard as you did before."

"How did you know that!? Don't tell me, Siegfried-sama, did you also also go back in time!?"

He took the bait. And the ends of my mouth curled up.

Language is very useful. Just by adding one word, you can change the meaning to something completely different. ......

Sir Will is a man of strict integrity and honesty. This type of person is more prone to falling for tricks than you might think.

It was a 50-50 chance.

Even if I lost the gamble and he told the Crown Prince that I might have gone back in time, there was no way to be sure.

The Crown Prince, if he had been the Crown Prince from before, he would have said, "Are you here to take revenge on me?"

"Have you come to take revenge on me?" And so on.

He might try to frame me like he had done to Rio before his time travel, but if he did, I would have to ask him to disappear from the stage.

"The Magic Academy will soon be on vacation. My family will be holding a private tea party before the Royal Ball. And I would like to invite you to the tea party."

"Why would you invite me to an intimate tea party?"

Sir Will, who had been calm and unperturbed until a few minutes ago, now seemed to be frightened.

Well, it's not surprising. He's not sure if I'm one of those people who has gone back in time.

"I want to talk to you slowly. You know what I mean?"

Does this sound like a threat?

Well, good.

Sir Will nodded slowly, though his face was pale.

After school, I stopped by "Peace and Harmony " to buy dumplings for master as promised.

Hearing the conversation between Sir Will and I, Master's face was visibly distorted.

"Yuri. You've become a scary man. You were cute when you became my apprentice. ......"

"I'm not of the age to be called cute anymore, sir."

"However I'm not sure how you could tell that Will belonged to the Royal Knights before he went back in time. Did you look it up?"

Master asked while holding a skewer of dumplings in his mouth and toying with it with his mouth.

"Of course not. There's no way to find out what happened before the time reversed."

"There is a dragon god called Ron. He can find out what happened before time reversed."

"Do you think the dragon god will listen to my wish? Ron-sama likes Rio, so if Rio wants to know what happened before she went back in time, he can find out."

The black dragon god with an air of solitude seems difficult to deal with.

"Then how did you know?"

I giggled and took a sip of tea. The tea of Hinoshima is delicious.

"The executioner is chosen at random from among the knights belonging to the Royal Order of Knights. So, if Sir Will was Rio's executioner, I thought he belonged to the Royal Knights before the time traveled back."

"You're trying to pull a fast one on me!"

Master leaned in.

"That would be the case, sir."

"What were you going to do if you were wrong......?"

"I'd have him disappear."

Smiling, I added, "I'm just kidding."

"It doesn't sound like a joke to me. You're the only one I wouldn't want to make an enemy of."

"I don't want to make an enemy of Master either. I don't think I can beat you in swordsmanship."

Even if we were to fight three times, I could only win one against Master.

"I don't care about your swordsmanship, but I don't think I can beat you in a head-to-head match."

"I cannot read Master's movements though."

He is a man as elusive as the wind, worthy of the name "The Sword Sage of the Wind."

"I hope you will attend the tea gathering as well, Master. Rio was very enthusiastic about making sweets with the utmost care and skill."

"Really? Yurie's sweets are delicious."

Rio has been a good cook as well as baker since she was a child.

Leon-sama is lucky to have my sister as his bride-to-be.

From the moment Rio told me that Sir Will was the executioner, I was convinced.

The odds were in our favor.
