Episode 126 destiny (4)
That evening, somewhere in the royal palace.
Leaving behind the sleeping twins, Lois, Fabro, and Paige sat face to face.
“Hmm.”
“hmm… … .”
Page and Favreau look away as if they are embarrassed when their eyes make slight contact.
In the awkward atmosphere the two had created, Lois opened her mouth with a sigh.
“Paige, there’s something I’ve been curious about for a long time.”
Paige, who was unable to adjust to the awkward atmosphere, quickly took Lois’ question.
“Do you have any questions? “What is it?”
“How did you start stealing?”
“ah… ! “That one?”
Paige smiled softly at Lois’ question.
Fabro also seemed curious, so he pricked up his ears.
Soon, Paige’s calm voice began to sound.
“In a faraway place, Commander Greg began living as a mercenary to raise funds for the Leon Revolutionary Army. “The leader, who did difficult work, took me away and went to work as a mercenary.”
There was a faintness in Page’s eyes.
“As is the case with mercenaries… When Director Greg returned after a few days or months, his body was covered in wounds. Despite this, he never rested and devotedly and silently worked as a mercenary for his Majesty and the Kingdom of France. “If it’s something that makes money, I don’t hesitate to go over not only the fall continent but also the winter continent.”
“… … .”
“I’m watching this from afar… I also couldn’t stay still. So I started doing what I could… … .”
“That was theft?”
“What could I have done after growing up as a princess in the royal palace? And among the ways to make a lot of money in a short period of time, there is nothing as simple as stealing. Kai also helped me with a lot of things.”
Also, if she were caught stealing on the Autumn Continent, who would know she was a princess?
Even if you were caught, all you had to do was pretend to be an ordinary person.
I don’t know if it was fortunate or not, but stealing was surprisingly a good fit for Page.
The fact that she was never caught for 20 years, even though she was somewhat famous on the Autumn Continent, proved her talent.
“Although I knew it was not a good thing, when I heard that the Leon Revolutionary Army was helping Your Highness with the money I earned… “I was happy.”
Paige smiled self-deprecatingly.
This was the background for the birth of the night weasel that preys on the wallets of nobles on the autumn continent.
“hmm… … .”
Lois looked at Paige with new eyes.
The years of wandering around the shadows as a young girl for the kingdom and for her father.
It would never have been an easy road.
That’s a whopping 20 years.
“ah! This is a secret from Director Greg. “Chief Greg doesn’t know I’m stealing.”
“You hid it well for 20 years.”
“I’m good at stealing, but I’m also good at hiding it, hehe.”
Lois shook her head as she looked at Paige who was smiling brightly.
“One is a petty thief, the other is a bandit… … . “The way I see it, you guys are truly a match made in heaven.”
“Bandits?”
“I did not know? “Fabro, that guy was the one who was stealing food on the winter continent.”
“Really?!”
Paige looked at Favreau in surprise.
In response to the look in his eyes as if asking if that statement was true, Fabro cleared his throat awkwardly.
“that… The past… “It’s just the past.”
“I thought it couldn’t be possible because his face looked exactly like a bandit… … .”
“Hmm!”
Paige burst out laughing as she saw Fabbro blushing with embarrassment.
He himself had not done a very good job to blame Fabro for his past of banditry.
That’s why I had no intention of blaming him.
“Hmph.”
Fabro, who had been clearing his throat repeatedly, suddenly hardened his countenance and looked at Lois.
“I… Lois.”
“why.”
“That’s it… … .”
Fabro is hesitant and unable to speak easily.
Before he could even open his mouth, Lois struck first.
“okay. “You stay here.”
“… Huh?!”
Fabro’s eyes widened at Lois’s answer, as if she had seen through his thoughts before he could even speak.
Lois saw this and responded with a calm smile.
“I want to stay here. “Isn’t that what you wanted to say?”
“Well, that…” … .”
Fabro’s face hardened as his true intentions were revealed.
Lois, on the other hand, was not angry and asked in a calm voice.
“Fabro, do you believe in fate?”
“yes? You mean destiny? well… … .”
“I believe.”

I had no choice but to believe it.
To Lois, fate was a truly terrible word.
The fate of death that will come someday.
Aren’t we still struggling to escape that fate?
Because of this, Lois was convinced that there was destiny in the world.
That belief came out in his story.
“One coincidence can be said to be something that just happens by chance, but three or more coincidences can be called fate.”
Royce and his group planned to board an airship.
The ceiling collapsed and Paige fell into the lodgings where Lois and her group were staying.
Unfortunately, the airship that Royce and his party were trying to board was a stolen goods transport ship, and at the same time, a third force attempted to hijack it and use it for the purpose of assassinating the king.
In addition, the king whom the three forces tried to kill happened to be the father of the woman who was a petty thief who fell from the ceiling.
Several coincidences overlapped and overlapped to an incredible degree, and we ended up here.
“I thought it was all about you interfering with my fate.”
But that thought soon changed.
As we learn that Favreau and Paige have feelings for each other.
“But when I thought about it, I realized that wasn’t true. It’s not that you intervened in my fate… I was involved in your fate. Even if it weren’t for me, you would have met someday and become husband and wife. “I think so.”
“… … .”
“Fabro.”
“yes… … .”
“This is the end of our journey with you.”
“… … .”
“I’ve had a hard time being the guardian of young children. “Anyway, it’s spring on the continent soon after here, so we’ll take care of it from now on.”
“… Lois.”
Fabro gave a dark look.
And at that moment, red light surged from Fabro’s whole body and scattered in all directions.
A covenant between dragons and dwarves.
It meant that the shackles he had been wearing since the winter continent were lifted.
Lois smiled in the sparkling red light.
“I let you off the leash, so don’t do anything foolish and live well. “Page, you do a good job of keeping an eye on whether they are doing anything stupid or not.”
“If you cheat with that face, you have to admit it. Because it’s me, they want to live with me… … .”
“After hearing it, that’s true too.”
Lois and Paige looked at each other and giggled.
Favreau, caught in the middle, just laughed even though the two were swearing at each other.
“Oh right!”
At that time, Lois struck her palm with her fist as if she remembered something.
“I almost forgot to tell you the most important thing.”
“The most important thing?”
“Is there a problem?”
Paige and Favreau tilted their heads.
“I have something for you to do.”
“Are we?”
“In the future, someone with the last name Esteban will appear in this country.”
“uh? Esteban?”
Page pretended to recognize the familiar name.
Wasn’t she the one who looked into the Esteban family a few days ago, at Lois’ order?
Lois also nodded at Paige’s reaction.
“Yes, that’s right. “It’s Esteban.”
“What kind of story do you have with the Esteban family?” … .”
“Well, what can I say. Potential enemies? “Bad fate in the future?”
Fabro asked as if he was dumbfounded by Lois’ answer.
“What is that? Are you even prophesying now?”
“I’m basically multi-talented, right? “It’s about foresight.”
“Why is someone who can see the future leaving home and suffering like this? “If you knew this would happen, you would have just stayed home.”
Fabro’s grumpy voice pricked Lois’ heart.
Lois’ face suddenly becomes grim.
“… Doesn’t this thing start crawling just because it’s released? “Would you like to have a snack before you leave?”
“I will correct it!”
“Anyway, if people with the last name Esteban appear in the Kingdom of France… … .”
Before Lois could finish speaking, Fabro suddenly interrupted.
“Should I kill you?”
“no.”
“Then should I kick you out? Out of the kingdom?”
“That’s not it either.”
“then… … ?”
“Listen carefully, Fabro. “I will give you my final teaching.”
“I will listen!”
“In the first place, if an enemy approaches you with a sword, you should keep it close. “At a distance that can always be monitored and handled at any time.”
“ah!”
“If a guy with the last name Esteban appears in the Kingdom of France, embrace him well. Just make sure to monitor and keep in check. “Don’t let them grow in power.”
“All right.”
Fabro nodded with a sense of duty.
Then Page asked a question.
“So when does that Esteban guy show up?”
“It will definitely appear within 250 years?”
“Something… “It may seem very specific, or it may not.”
Paige gave me a puzzled look.
But even for a moment.
Paige declared with a very serious expression.
“I promise in the name of Paige Quan France. Members of the French royal family will never forget the kindness shown to them by Prince Lois, and in return, they will watch over and guard against the Esteman family that will set foot in this country. As long as the blood of the French royal family, as well as mine, continues… We will continue that mission from generation to generation.”
A promise of mission in the name of the royal family.
When Lois heard this, satisfaction appeared in her eyes.
‘Yes, this is it!’
Why did he put Fabreau at the forefront and make plans to increase the power of the royal family?
Also, what brought Favreau and Page together!
It was all for now, this moment.
‘One day, the Esteban family will appear in this land.’
And if the Esteban family becomes a family belonging to the Kingdom of France.
Also, if you can control them with royal power.
‘You’ll be able to put a shackle on Elvis Esteban.’
Royce has laid out the basics for the future 250 years from now.
‘I planted a fracchi properly.’
No, can this be called a frag?
Now that I have the royal family of a country on my side, this… … .
‘Is this a secret power? ‘Cook, cluck.’
If Fabro and Page get married like this and their blood descendants will rule the Kingdom of France for generations.
Also, if that relationship were to lead to Lois, there was no situation that would benefit Lois more than that.
With a satisfied smile, Lois waved her hand.
“That’s enough. “Just leave now.”
Fabro, who was about to get up, hesitated.
“that… … .”
“why?”
“Are you going to see our wedding?”
“well… … . As you know, I’m very busy, right? “I might leave without seeing it.”
“still… … .”
Lois let out a sullen voice as she saw Fabro’s expression full of regret.
“Originally, it was said that the shorter the breakup time, the better.”
“… All right.”
“Get out now. “I’m going to sleep.”
“Yes, then rest.”
Favreau and Paige leave the room at Lois’s urging.
After walking a few steps, their new model stopped.
To be precise, because Favreau stopped, Page also stopped.
An indescribable emotion stirred on Favreau’s face as he turned around and looked in the direction where Lois was.
Cool, sad, etc.
But the biggest emotion was still gratitude.
Fabro stood there for a long time thinking deeply about something.
He looked at the page with a determined look on his face.
“I need to see your highness.”
“Your Highness? Why all of a sudden?”
“… Lois is the person who led me from a life of banditry and begging on the winter continent to this place. so… I think I should do something to put my mind at ease.”
“ah… … .”
Paige nodded to Fabreau’s story.
She smiled brightly and held Fabro’s hand.
“let’s go together.”
“uh… that is.”
“We haven’t formalized the ceremony yet, but we are a couple, right?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“I think I should repay you for helping us form a relationship. So let’s go together.”
“All right. “Of course.”
Fabro nodded with an expression of emotion.
They smiled at each other and headed to the King’s office.
They were thinking together about how to repay Lois’ kindness.
