No... While I'm here, should I meet my fiancé or not? But how should I greet him? My lord? Your highness? Or dear? No, no, no... It's not like I'll let myself marry him. So, I guess your highness is fine?
Just when I'm thinking how to greet him, the man in talk comes by himself to me. A handsome blonde man in white suit was heading to me.
"You're as charming as ever even with your attire, Lia."
"Your highness, this humble vassal isn't worth for your praise."
"If this eyes of mine couldn't see the beauty of my fiancé, then I'm just a failure of a prince. Now, let's drop these Vassal and lord act shouldn't we? We've been a friend since the coming of age ceremony and now we're a fiancé entwined in the thread of destiny."
"I..."
Seeing the prince hearty face, I sighed and grant his wish for casual attitude.
"I hope you don't regret it, my prince"
"Oh, come on... Drop the formalities already and call me by my name"
"Haaah... Alright, I'll call your name. But only when we're alone like this, Adam."
Seeing my straight forward face and tone. For some reason Adam blushed a bit on his face.
"So, this is what the girls in the academy feels when you are calling them by their name."
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"Hahaha... Forget it. Right, Lia you're the one who leads the advance team for the ambush right?"
"Technically yes, but you're still the one who hold the chain of commands here"
"Oh well, as long as I have you on my side. I feel there's nothing that can stop us from taking their base. I'm counting on you, My fiancé."
"You too, don't die on me. I don't want my head falls off because you died in a battle where I lead"
After that, we talked like an old friends about our life so far, what we do in those past 7 years, about our recent engagement, and also what our fathers up to. We talked for a long time until the time of departure arrived and we were called to the muster point.
As we were going to there, I just remembered that I forgot to bring my equipment with me. In an instant I turned back and dash back to house, leaving Adam alone with his dumbfounded face.
The returning trip to house wasn't really that long than the trip to the barrack, especially when I were dashing around the street with several martial arts and body strengthening magics applied. How I move to other was like seeing a bullet train pass trough, though I don't know what it is.
I keep running until I found myself almost crashing the gate of my house. From the other sides of the gate a man was approaching me, he's a soldier of my father who was appointed as our security guard. From the way he saw me, you can tell that he already used to seeing me running like this.
"Good afternoon, my lady did you forget your belongings again?"
"Ahaha... Well, yes."
"Just like what master Reiz suspected, but don't worry I've been tasked to give it to you."
"Oh, thanks. You're a saver"
"It is my honor to serve you, my lady"
What he gave me is a ring made of silver and crystal. But it isn't just your everyday rings, it's a magic tool with a dimensional storage magic embroidered in it. After confirming the contents with my magic, I wore it in my ring finger.
"Well then, my lady. If I may I shall excuse myself and return to my work now."
"Sure, and please tell my father that I'll be going to Breyn today."
"Please be safe, my lady."
"I will."
After that single sentence I returned to the army with a dazzling speed like before. When I arrived the soldiers and knights have already prepared, ready to move anytime soon. This time we have 3000 soldiers and 500 knights at our disposal with 2000 soldiers and 400 knights has already gone to Breyn several days ago, leaving us with 1000 soldiers and 100 knights to command. On front of the army, Adam was waiting me on his horse. Several knights clad in silver armor was guarding him and a white horse besides his. That horse probably mine to use.
"So, this is how your looks when going to a battle. It's sure giving out its own charms."
Said him after seeing me dressed differently from before. What I'm wearing right now is a short white dress clad in black and red lined leather armor from my chest till the tips of my finger, while on the skirt several mithril plating was embroidered on its surface, and lastly my feet were protected by a set of boots made of monster skin. If I remember it coreectly all of them are made from A-class monster materials with total price is somewhere around 350 gold coins or 350.000.000 Rue. In case you don't know a single hard bread is equal to 5 Rue or 5 Iron coins.
"Yeah, this is me when going to war. Are you disappointed because I'm not using any sexy and revealing armor?"
"No, of course not. Who do you think I am?"
"A perverted and good for nothing prince, who loves to play with girl hearts. Oh, by the way that's from my colleagues not me. To me, you're a precious childhood friend of mine"
"Ugghhh... that's hurt, but I'm happy to hear what you feel about me. Now, let's get moving there's a war that need to win."
After finishing his sentence, he commanded the army to start the expedition to Breyn and thus, our war as a fiancé started.
Never did I know the slightest that this war and my engagement will lead me into a bigger destiny waiting me in the future.
