Dear Mr. Ludvik, I received a reply from the other party.
"Well, what did they say no to you this time at ...?"
No, sir, they said yes, sir.
What, really?"
In my humble office, I received a letter from Daymond, the chief butler.
Of course, sir. There is no one in the Kingdom of Shariat other than the royal family who could refuse an offer from the Count of Baruche, a man of tradition and prestige. If there is, I will stand out in the open and carry the spear."
"Ah, all right. All right, all right, all right, all right.
Daymond is already old enough to retire, but he is still working in the field, worrying more about me, the man who put his soul into raising me, than his children or grandchildren. Furthermore, he insists that he will not quit until he gets married.
The story that Daymond brought to me, saying, "This time, this time," is his marriage to the Viscountess Belka.
I'll send an envoy to the other party so that they can come over here right away.
But are you sure about this? I can't imagine that you haven't heard the rumors.
I am sure it will be all right. The messenger said that the young lady had met Master Ludwig.
... So, you agree with that?"
I put my hand on my chin and let the memory come back to me. When and where did we meet?
The winter in the Balshe Frontier Counties is much colder and the winters are much longer than in the royal capital, which has no snow. When it snows, there is no choice but to stay indoors.
Let's see if the baroness can stand it.
She'll be fine. If she is the daughter of this family, I am sure she will be able to inspire the Ludviks and give birth to an heir! After all, she is the enchanting Viscountess who has made so many men fall in love with her!"
Daymond clenched his fists and asserted with a snort. As the head of a family that has served the Barsch family for generations as a steward, he cannot help but watch over the next generation.
A number of noble daughters had come to him as potential fiancées, but when they saw Ludwig's face, they would fall over with a drawn look on their faces. The more noble-born daughters came to the Balshe Frontier Count's territory, the sooner they returned home.
Some of the daughters were brave, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't manage to get a bedchamber.
I had a heartbreaking incident when I was a boy, and despite my strong body, I was unable to get my cock erect. Without an erection of the male organ, intercourse was impossible.
No matter how beautiful the girl was, it was impossible, so ... the butler, Daymond, found a sexually uninhibited young lady as a marriage partner. He thinks that if she has fought a hundred battles, she must be able to get his cock erect and make a baby.
It is not such an easy thing to do, but it is true that without a wife, it would cause unnecessary speculation and trouble. Since His Majesty has been pressuring him to get married, it is certainly better for him to get married.
But that doesn't mean he can marry anyone. However, if the uninhibited daughter is given some freedom, she may agree to be a decorative wife.
If that is the case, well, it's okay, I thought, and I made an offer of marriage to the rumored Viscountess Belka.
I'm sure you'll have a baby this time, Ludwig-sama!
'Haa... do as you please. I'm sure you'll collapse in my face again at the very least.
I'm sure that will not be the case. The lady with the peach-colored handkerchief, my boy's first love, was not afraid to smile at you!
...Say no more about her."
Sighing again, I sigh and glare at Daymond to stop him from talking. I want to keep the woman I rescued in King's Landing quietly close to my heart.
The woman with the same dark hair and dull violet eyes stared straight at me. She had never smiled at me since I was cursed, but she smiled in front of me without fear, like a flower softly unfurling.
I will never forget that smile.
But Daymond wants to take the Viscountess as his bride, no matter what it takes. He is making arrangements for the wedding without setting an engagement period so that he will not miss out this time.
As he watches, Daymond's son, Zephir, interjects, "He grew up with me. He grew up with me and now serves as a competent aide.
Brushing his hair straight and silver like his father's, Zephir lifts the bridge of his silver-rimmed glasses. Here on the frontier, it is customary for young men to grow their hair long.
The young man's hair was long and straight, and he was wearing a pair of silver-rimmed spectacles. My father would never introduce such an extraordinary woman as the enchanting baroness. ...
Oh, don't worry," he said. I'm going to marry her, but she's just a decoration. There is no woman who can deceive me.
A dry laugh rises in my mouth. The only women I see are the ones who are afraid to approach me because of the fear they feel when they see my face. I can't imagine that I, as a frontiersman, would ever be attracted to a woman.
But there are many heroes who are infatuated with bewitching women.
Don't be ridiculous. No matter what kind of body a woman has, she will always fall in love with herself.
Above all, there is no woman who can smile naturally at me.
In the late spring season, Alicia Belka arrives in the Balsch Frontier Count's territory after a long journey. I had no idea at the time that my cock would be impossibly erect and that I would fall in love with her shining smile in no time.
