Chapter 6

To sum up, he was a handsome man who made anyone speechless as soon as anyone saw him.

The strong wind in the air garden blew his brown hair.

Estelle, who had been mesmerized by the handsome face for a moment, was surprised the next moment.

“I-I’m fine.”

Estelle hurriedly tried to get out of his hand. Being held in the arms of an unknown man!

She’s been through this a few times. Those who try to make contact with her, even at least once, in places such as banquet halls and royal halls. More often than not, she quickly changes her manners, says hello, and then leaves the place. However, she was mesmerized by this man’s face.

“I’m sorry. Excuse me. Suddenly, something came up, so I leaned over…”

But soon Estelle came to her senses. She glanced at the man who was rubbing his neck awkwardly in front of her. The tips of the ears were red and there was a hint of embarrassment.

“You are not from the capital.”

It was the first word that Estelle spoke after arranging her outfit. The man who was watching her quietly asked her.

“Yes?”

“Nobody in the capital thinks that a person will slip and die in a floating garden.”

Even if a person slipped in the floating garden, the dense magic net immediately catches the opponent and puts them on the railing. It was common sense that everyone in the capital knew. So, at first, Estelle thought that the hand of the man holding his waist was nothing more or less than a trick.

However, the red face of the man who entered Estelle’s eyes dispelled those thoughts at once.

Anyway, as she thought about it before, he had a remarkably decent face. In addition, he had a tall shoulder and strong muscles and thick arms.

The light brown hair seemed to have grown out roughly, but it rather highlighted masculinity. His voice was low and serious, and it had the charm of making the listener look back.

If there was such a person in the capital, he was so handsome that rumors would have spread long ago.

Estelle grinned and briefly explained the magic net. But even after he heard the explanation, the man’s face was still puzzled.

“Does that mean people just leave the slipping person alone?”

“Uh… Usually?”

“Is that normal for the people of the kingdom?”

That’s amazing. The man scratched his head. Estelle felt more embarrassed about herself for no reason. But the man shook his head and apologized to her.

“I’m sorry. If that’s the common sense of the capital, it’s like I just touched you.”

“Oh, no. You had good intentions.”

Estelle waved her hand. At the same time, he added.

“Didn’t I hurt you?”

“Uh…”

The man was awkward. It was then that Estelle realized what was strange. The man standing in front of her was so tall and massive that Estelle could not be seen when standing in front of her.

“Anyway, it’s your first time in the capital, right?”

“Oh, yes, it is.”

The man looked at her and replied belatedly, blushing his cheeks.

She knew it. Once again, if this handsome man was in the capital, rumors would have spread long ago.

The men’s clothes were made of materials of too good quality for a commoner. A tunic often worn by knights. At least he was of semi-noble status. Just as she was trying to figure out his identity, he opened her mouth.

“I heard that the air garden is famous, so I was going to take a look.”

The spectacular view of hundreds of rocks floating in the air was a landmark of the capital. This man also seemed very curious about the floating garden not long after visiting the capital.

“Then…”

The man stared at Estelle. Estelle was perplexed when she realized that the gaze was asking her for her name.

It’s probably because it’s been too long since Estelle introduced herself to others. Lady Estelle Duran was one of the most beautiful women in the capital, and people asked if she was Estelle before she even spoke. So, Estelle answered with her face blushing awkwardly.

“I-I mean.”

“….”

“It’s Moa, Moa.”

The man raised his eyebrows.

He may have thought it was an unusual name. Moa was Estelle’s childhood name. Another word for star. She was such a precious child, so her mother said she couldn’t even call her by her first name.

When she got to know people she didn’t know well, Estelle was often used. Also, Viscount Duran’s precious daughter. Even the princess’s best friend. For, no matter how well-established she is the capital of a kingdom, anyone who hears her name may immediately take it in regard.

“….Moa.”

“Yes.”

“Do you not know me?”

Estelle frowned slightly.

“Do you know me?”

“…No, no.”

The man smiled and waved his hand.
