Lancer didn't know if his 'symbol' had worked, and Kaguya herself wasn't sure about the change in herself, but there was no doubt that the symbol had indeed activated, but now no one could verify it. After all, Lancer could immunize the charm effect with 'willpower', so... should they catch someone from below to try?
In the end, Lancer, looking helpless, pinched his eyebrows.
"How about... we wait until tomorrow to test the effect?"
——————
Kaguya Houraisan, standing at the door, only stepped back into her room after Lancer figure was gradually swallowed by the darkness until it completely disappeared.
At this moment, the tatami mat in the room had been replaced, and the tatami engraved with the 'Runic Symbols' was moved to the position where Kaguya-hime usually sat. Touching the symbol which was a little cool, she couldn't help but look forward to it. It would be great if it could stop those guys from bothering her, after all, all she hoped for at this time was to peacefully spend the time of her 'punishment' here.
However, touching the cold symbol, she couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Why did the other party want to help her?
Since he was not affected by the charm, he shouldn't have an unconditional good impression of her like those guys, right?
'He is truly a strange man.'
Although she felt strange, she didn't think too much about it. Since this guy was willing to help her unconditionally, why should she refuse?
She was the Princess of the Moon!
She, who was originally full of pride, suddenly lost her morale and sighed as she looked at the moon covered by dark clouds in the sky.
'I really want to... go back...'
Staring blankly at the sky until dawn, footsteps finally came from outside the door. Kaguya Houraisan knew that the two old people who found her were getting up.
Eating the simple breakfast made by the old man, Kaguya Houraisan expression was a little disappointed. After all, the attitude of the two old people towards her was no different from before.
'Could it be that the thing that man made was useless? Sure enough, free things are unreliable...'
However, something even more depressing happened after breakfast.
"Kaguya-hime, Lord Fujiwara no Fuhito plans to bid farewell to you later..."
Looking at the old man's somewhat awkward expression, Kaguya-hime didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, since she was exiled to the ground, she also had to face some earthly troubles, such as those troublesome court nobles. And what was even more troublesome was that even though she rejected countless of them, they still came one after another to see her.
"Thank you for your trouble, Grandpa..."
Hearing Kaguya Houraisan words, Sanuki no Miyatsuko felt a little strange, as if there was something different about himself than usual, but this feeling quickly disappeared, replaced by pity for the girl in front of him.
When he first took her out of the 'bamboo', he knew that the other party was definitely not a normal person, but for some reason, he decided to adopt her. Perhaps it was because the other party was cute and did not look like she would threaten him.
And later, it was indeed as he thought. This girl, named 'Kaguya-hime', not only did not cause him any trouble, but also made his ordinary bamboo cutting life very popular. He was quite happy at first, but later, the increasing appearance of court nobles made him start to worry. After all, he was just an ordinary person. He was afraid that he would not be able to protect this cute girl, and afraid that she would be forcibly taken away by those court nobles, after all, the reputation of court nobles was not good among the common people.
But what he didn't expect was that he guessed the beginning but didn't guess the end. Those court nobles did hope to marry Kaguya-hime, but for some reason, they were all 'very polite'. It was just that as the status of the arriving court nobles became higher and higher, he became more and more anxious, until the appearance of the 'Minister of the Right, Fujiwara no Fuhito', which made him feel his heart almost stop. But what he didn't expect was that 'Kaguya-hime' rejected the proposal again.
Although every time before was safely overcome, the identity of the person who came this time was too alarming, and he also felt a little helpless, but even so, he never thought of making a decision without consultation. And early this morning, the 'Minister of the Right' sent someone to inform them that they were preparing to leave, which made him breathe a sigh of relief. After all, the other party leaving would save a lot of trouble.
So he simply went to find 'Kaguya-hime'. Based on his understanding of the other party, she would not refuse such a thing.
It was just that when he saw 'Kaguya-hime' again, he had a strange feeling, but he couldn't describe what it was, but the tenderness in his eyes remained unchanged.
Although he knew 'Kaguya-hime' was special, the girl's gentle words and dignified etiquette still made him unable to help but feel the thought of 'how wonderful it would be if she were really our daughter'.
At this moment, Kaguya-hime only felt that the old man in front of her hadn't changed at all, but she didn't know that the old man's thoughts had actually begun to change, and the biggest change was the 'reason'.
If he only did it initially because 'he felt he should do it', then he had now found the reason for doing so.
On the other side, Lancer also followed the informed Fujiwara no Fuhito up the mountain. Along the way, Lancer observed Fujiwara no Fuhito, trying to confirm the other party's condition later, and the other party was also serious and silent.
Lancer followed Fujiwara no Fuhito into the small house as usual, but Lancer expression was a little subtle looking at the bright room. Fortunately, Fujiwara no Fuhito didn't notice Lancer reaction. His attention was completely focused on the person he was about to meet.
At this moment, he even felt more nervous than going to see the Emperor.
When the two old people opened the sliding door and saw the girl sitting there again, he couldn't help but freeze for a moment. At this moment, he felt that the burning flame in his heart seemed to have disappeared.
Watching Fujiwara no Fuhito communicate 'normally' with Kaguya Houraisan, Lancer also quietly clenched his fist.
Undoubtedly, his plan was correct.
Even Lancer noticed the change in Fujiwara no Fuhito, so how could Kaguya Houraisan, the person involved, not notice it?
Thinking that she could finally stop being troubled by those strangers, Kaguya Houraisan couldn't help but smile, but coincidentally, just at this moment, Fujiwara no Fuhito, who was originally looking down, looked up and saw Kaguya Houraisan...
'What a beautiful girl! Sure enough... I still don't want to give up...'
The flame that had been extinguished ignited again.
If the medicine configured by Yagokoro Eirin could make people involuntarily attracted to Kaguya, then even if the effect of the medicine was isolated, it could not change Kaguya Houraisan inherent charm. Undoubtedly, Fujiwara no Fuhito was captured again this time.
