I was excommunicated from the Holy Knights

77 – Princess of Blue Steel 6

“… ha..”

Estelle is lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Tomorrow, after the selection of the fiancée that had been going on for about a week, Santana’s fiancée was to be officially decided.

In other words, from her point of view, this meant that today was the last day she could comfortably learn about the internal affairs of Bohemia.

According to the original schedule, she was supposed to look around the market one more time in order to accurately find out the public sentiment of Bohemia.

however.

At this moment, she had been lying on the bed all day, citing the reason that she was not feeling well today.

In fact, her green eyes, which normally sparkled with jewel-like firearms, were blurry as if they were covered in dust.

In addition, the face, which was full of vitality and enthusiasm, looks a little haggard than usual, perhaps because of not sleeping at night.

She looked like she was really sick, but to be honest, Estelle wasn’t particularly sick right now.

Nevertheless, the reason why she can’t come to her senses while staying up all night

that..

The person who is not thinking of leaving her head even at this moment

It was because of a man whose name was Santana Andreas.

‘Why am I like this?.. Why… why does that man… do I keep thinking of Santa and that person?’

Although, through the ‘contract’ with the man from yesterday, Estelle made a great profit.

Although marriage was not the purpose in the first place, through the contract engagement with the man, she was able to obtain things equivalent to that, and at the same time, she was able to relieve the burden of ‘marriage’, which she had always considered cumbersome.

However, apart from that fact, for some reason, a part of her heart was always uncomfortable.

It wasn’t an unpleasant feeling, but nothing like pain.

A feeling of strange excitement, anticipation, and a little bit of excitement.

Feeling with the look of the person who remains clear without leaving..

Somehow it’s not bad, but at the same time it makes one’s mind restless…

Due to the heterogeneous sensations she experienced for the first time in her life, Estelle spent the whole day just staring blankly at the ceiling, unable to control her emotions.

While thinking that this precious time spent in Bohemia was a waste,

At the same time.. Nevertheless, with this feeling that I can’t escape, I completely entrusted my body.

Santana looks around once more at the fiancée candidates standing in front of him.

Watching him like this, Dust was feeling nervous inside.

The three girls in front of you as finalists,

All of them had a strikingly beautiful complexion, and at the same time they had already been proven in many ways to be impeccable intellect and manners.

At the same time, the outstanding halo of the high-ranking aristocratic family that supports it is a bonus

However, even with these brides in front of his eyes, Dust couldn’t calm down.

‘There’s no way that would be the case, but… I’m sure my older brother won’t declare that there’s no one he likes, right?’

To be honest, to be honest.

The beauty of the three is that lowly girl who suddenly went missing a while ago…

It wasn’t a level that could overwhelm Cazeros.

It’s really embarrassing, but the woman of Cazeros doesn’t know anything else, but her beauty is of a level that shakes her brother’s heart.

Even though she didn’t dress up in particular, she was a person who possessed eye-catching beauty, so I had no choice but to admit that in my heart.

And that fact was felt all the more clearly in this situation with the young ladies showing off their beauty to the fullest with fancy accessories and makeup.

In addition, Estelle, who is second to none in terms of beauty to Cazeros, and the candidate for the fiancé whom Dust secretly desires, Estelle, for some reason, seems to be in a slightly worse condition than usual.

Feeling dissatisfied in such an aesthetic aspect, Durst was trying to calm this uneasy feeling as much as possible.

‘But… no matter how much, I won’t do that. A person’s appearance isn’t everything, and most of all, other than beauty, of course, these people are overwhelmingly great. Besides, this seat is no longer a place where Santa or my brother can express their intention to refuse.’

Now, he and his mother, as well as his father, Earl of Tourn, were with him.

In addition, since servants and nobles from other territories are also watching, declaring that there is no one they like among the three people here can cause a big problem politically beyond a simple intention to refuse.

As much as Santana couldn’t be unaware of this fact, Durst believed that her brother would not make rash judgments.

like that..

It was at that time when Dust was feeling nervous about a situation that might arise.

“I have decided.”

Santana declares with a serious voice.

At his words, people’s faces began to light up with tension…

Santana then slowly walked up to one of the three and respectfully knelt down as he said.

“I… I want to make Miss Estelle my fiancée.”

“ah!..”

The image of Santana showing the picture he is anxious about but still hoping for.

Upon realizing that, Dust unknowingly let out a slightly excited voice.

And right after that…

Santana slowly held out a white rose, the symbol of engagement, in front of Estelle.

“Lady Estelle Bertina Fernandez, will you be my fiancée?”

Santana speaks with a gentle smile on his lips.

At that moment, seeing him like this, Estelle, her face flushed red, carefully accepted the white rose held out in front of her.

“… Yes.. Yes.. OK.. I will accept.. I will. Mr. Santana.”

Estelle spoke in a trembling voice that was not typical of her.

Just like that, as soon as a couple promised to marry in the future was born, thunderous applause began to resound throughout the room.

Among them were Mrs. Andreas, who was wiping away her tears with emotion, and Count Thurn, who was clapping enthusiastically with a happy expression on her side.

The engagement ceremony proceeded immediately after the fiancée was decided.

Although it is said to be an engagement, this place, which actually declares an alliance between the great aristocratic families that rule the area, was followed by a banquet as luxurious and rich as any other wedding ceremony.

An alliance between the lord families who rule Bohemia and Lepsori

This could be said to be a place to raise the prestige of Bohemia, which was in full swing after the victory at the Battle of Baeksan, to the next level.

However, apart from these details, Durst, who had put in all his efforts to create this place at this moment, was genuinely rejoicing at the current situation.

“Congratulations, Miss Estelle. No.. Can I call you Estelle unnie now? Since we are engaged, we are practically the same family.”

“Yes, feel free to call me Lady Dust.”

“hahahaha, please feel free to call Estelle-nim too, because a younger sister is just like a younger sister.”

“Umm..then.. shall we do that, Dust.”

“Whoops. Yes Estelle!”

Estelle, at her own request, speaks casually without formality.

Seeing her like this, Dust put a bright smile on his lips as if he had the whole world.

The fact that the person she had always admired became her older sister was a very happy thing for her.

In addition, the fact that this completely eliminated the place for the lowly Cazeros or something like that gave her greater relief and joy.

“huh? But where did my brother go? Somehow you haven’t seen it since before.”

“Santana just went in. He said he was a little tired because he was nervous.”

“No, no matter how much it is.. The banquet isn’t over yet, and you leave your fiancée like this and disappear.”

“Perhaps it was because he was nervous. We were the only ones who saw and experienced the progress, but Santana must have been anxious all week until the candidate was decided.”

“Well… it could be, but…”

Even though he felt a little uncomfortable like that, a smile of joy automatically began to form on Dust’s lips.

It was because, watching Estelle actively defending Santana, she could feel that she had become her brother’s fiancée once again.

Meanwhile.

Apart from Dust’s thoughts, at this moment, Estelle’s mind began to revolve around one thing… a fact she must never forget.

‘There’s no need to flirt.. This is a contract to the last. It’s said to be an engagement, but it’s just a wrapping paper made for political reasons..’

Recalling that fact once again.

At the same time, for some reason, I wondered about the unexplained discomfort felt in my heart.

Estelle began to put the mask of a smile on her face once again.
