Ch 91 - The Cold Tears of Ice Princess Kamisato

Thoma's P.O.V

I'm just an humble servant of Kamisato clan and been provided my service ever since they took me in after I failed to bring wine to my father. Long time ago I, once end up without any connection and Mora in Inazuma, Ayato Kamisato is the one who helped me back then which I forever grateful for his deeds.

My only wish is the happiness of young lord Ayato and Lady Ayaka.

Yet...

When I see Milady in the morning during my usual routine...

She's looking at the sky with a sad expression which I grew worried and decided to approach her.

Thoma: "What's wrong, Milady? You look unusual sad today..."

She's turned around her face and showing me something I don't like to see from her at all.

Ayaka: "*smile* I'm okay, Thoma..."

A fake smile.

Milady usual honest smile is pure that it's one of the beautiful things in this nation that even capable calming your heart whenever you saw it.

Yet... This is the first time I saw her fake smile and I hate it. It's something I hate to see.

What is happening today that could make her like this!?

Ayaka: "If (Y/N) was here... perhaps, this day will be great and fun..."

Said her as looking at the flying birds and soaring through the sky with more sadness and I caught depression in her words.

Thoma: "Milady..."

I couldn't help but feels sad as well yet, what I can do? I don't know what happened to her. I don't know what made her this sad... but, I'm willing to do anything if she could smile again...

... Her usual sweet and honest smile.

Ayato: "*sighed* She's been like this since this morning..."

Thoma: "Waka!?"

I was jumped a little bit with Milord voice reached me and I saw him with exhausted face looking at Milady with sympathy.

Ayato: "It's not like I don't understand, It's just, what choice do we have? To be generation of Kamisato, the prospect of clan's future is fall upon her..."

Thoma: "What's happened, Waka?"

Ayato: "In next week, she's going to marry her childhood friend, the head of the Matsumoto's clan as this marriage is being constructed by our late dear mother before she passed away..."

Thoma: "..........!?"

Ayato: "When I knew about this was already too late... As the one who supposed in her position was me but, when I saw how hard she worked in noble antics to make our dear mother smile... I can't help it..."

Ayato leaned his back on the wall as crossing his arms.

Ayato: "I can't help but to give her my position as the clan's head. I know how much she worked herself to the death even abandoned her childhood life just to make our late mother smile. And looking at that I couldn't help but wanted to give her a reward as such title as the clan's head is a fine one present but..."

Milord then looking up at ceiling before sighed heavily and finished his sentences.

Ayato: "... I regretted my choice now"

Thoma: "But couldn't you help Milady to get her out from this marriage arrangement?"

Ayato: "*shakes head* I'm afraid, I can't do such thing. It would only put shame on our late dear mother's name and Ayaka wouldn't wish for that..."
