Volume 7, Epilogue
When Leon and his friends are in the royal palace.
At Baron Bartfault’s mansion, Noelle could be seen in a wheelchair.
The idyllic scenery of the territory was soothing to Noelle, who had been seriously injured.
Noelle survived thanks to the use of a high performance medical capsule, but she needed rehabilitation afterward.
She moved from the Republic to Leon’s parents’ house, where she is recuperating.
Noelle, in her wheelchair in the garden of the mansion, talks to Livia behind her.
It was Livia who was pushing the wheelchair.
“Olivia-san is an idiot. If I’d died there, there wouldn’t have been any trouble.”
Noelle couldn’t understand why Olivia was so desperate to save her own life. She felt indebted to her for saving her life, but she could have had the option of not helping her.
Livia smiles as if in trouble.
“At that time, I was so absorbed that I didn’t have time to think about anything else. But I don’t regret saving you.”
“Why?”
“If Noelle-san dies, Leon-san will be sad.”
Livia says that she wanted to help for Leon’s sake, and Noelle looks up at the sky, thinking that she is no match for her.
“You must really like Leon.”
“Yes”
Livia answers immediately and pushes the wheelchair and continues to talk to Noelle.
“How is life at Leon’s parents’ house?”
“I’m grateful that everyone is so kind. I guess I’m just happy that Colin, Leon’s brother, has attached me.”
“I’m relieved to see you’re doing well. How’s the rehab going?”
“It’s tough. I’m almost ready to walk, though. But Creare said that in the spring I’ll be able to live normally.”
“I’m glad”
Livia was happy to see that Noelle, who had almost died, had recovered so well, even if she needed rehabilitation.
Then, Ange comes to them.
“There you are. Both of you should be happy. Leon has been offered the title of Marquis. I hear the ceremony will be a grand one.”
“Leon-san becomes Marquis?”
Ange is pleased but Livia looks troubled.
Ange understood why Livia was troubled.
“Leon won’t be happy about it, but it’s necessary. But it hurts to have to carry all that extra baggage.”
“Baggage?”
“I’ll explain that later. More importantly, Noelle has been accepted into the school’s third grade next term.”
Noelle was surprised to hear that she could attend the school.
“Is it okay? I’m a priestess, though?”
Due to Noelle’s unique position, she thought that she would be forced into some territory in the future. She was a priestess of the sacred tree sapling and the future solution to the energy problem.
It’s best to push her somewhere to protect her and keep her from escaping.
Ange’s expression turns a little grim.
“In a way, it’s thanks to Leon. No, thanks to Luxion? Your value has gone down a bit in the kingdom. The adults have more to worry about than the sacred tree.”
Noelle nodded her head, not understanding, and this time Ange pushed the wheelchair.
“Don’t worry about it. You can enjoy your life in the Kingdom.”
“Will it be fun?”
“It’s up to you, but I guarantee you’ll have a lot of fun if you’re on Leon’s side.”
Ange smiled at her, and Livia smiled too.
“Indeed, it’s fun to be near Leon-san. ―― In various means.”
Only at the end was the tone of his voice different, but Noelle, in her wheelchair, could not see Livia’s face.
Noelle looks up at the sky.
The sun’s shine is warm and it’s beginning to look more and more like spring.
“Fun, huh? That’s right. Then I’ll have fun, too.”
The three of them went to Leon’s parents’ house and continued to talk about him.
