At Karinal's serious expression I ended up making a troubled face.
Glancing at Elvin's face, he still had his arms crossed with a sour expression.
The fact that a strict man was not stopping it meant he must know something.
Yet as long as there was a possibility of embarrassing Elvin in front of Karinal I could not ask him; if I wanted to hear the reason I had no choice but to ask Karinal herself.
Still wearing a troubled expression I let out a small breath and asked Karinal, who was looking at me with a beautifully ordered face and straightforward eyes.
"I'm sorry, but may I hear the reason?"
"…Ever since Uncle returned from the war, whenever he has alcohol he only praises Lord Raide and his unit. Is there anything strange about me taking an interest in a man whom my strict uncle praises that much?"
"…Certainly, true enough."
Glancing only with my eyes at Elvin's face, Elvin clearly averted his face.
Hey, isn't this the old man's fault… But with this the mystery was solved.
