Knightly Kingdom.

( Yuuki's POV )

In the next couple of days, Sakura stuck to a routine, after eating with us she went out to explore our kingdom, accompanied by me or one of the guardians of our family, and when she returned to the castle she spent her time in the gardens sometimes accompanied by Linze.

I offered her several possible solutions for her amnesia but she wasn't very interested in any of them, recovering her memories didn't seem to be a priority for her, Well if that's what she wants then that's what she wants, none of the girls will care if she stays with us.

Today I went to meet her to accompany her on her exploration of the city but when I entered the garden I was greeted by a song, Sakura had a beautiful voice and I couldn't help but enjoy the rest of her song in silence. When she finished I applauded and she turned around in surprise.

Yuuki: *clap**clap**clap* You have a beautiful voice Sakura, do you like to sing?

Sakura: Your Majesty, yes, I think I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Yuuki: Maybe you were a famous singer who was cursed by the gods for having too good a voice.

Sakura: ...I highly doubt it.

Yuuki: well you never know, hey come with me I want to show you something.

I took Sakura's hand and I took her to a room in the castle, this room was full of musical instruments and I started playing different instruments, I wanted some music to accompany Sakura's song and when I was playing the violin Sakura joined me.

Soon our duo attracted the attention of the rest of the girls, Sakura's voice was as good as Kuno's and I thought about putting the band back together, the two of them together would be a great success, and I should share that with everyone in the kingdom.

Lapis: Your Majesty, you have visitors from the Knightly Kingdom of Lestia.

Oh, that's Hildegard's kingdom, I wonder what they want, I went to the throne room expecting to speak with an emissary but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw Princess Hildegard accompanied by an old knight.

Yuuki: Princess Hildegard, it is a pleasure to see you again, what is the reason for your visit?

Hildegard: Hello again King Yuuki, please call me Hilde.

???: It is a pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty, my name is Galen Yunas Lestia, previous King of the Lestia kingdom, I came today hoping to establish a good relationship between our kingdoms, My granddaughter is here as my escort.

Yuuki: I see, I'm happy to hear that, let me show you around our kingdom.

Galen: Thank you, if you don't mind I would like to see the training of the knights of your kingdom.

I suppose that the kingdom run by knights would be interested in our military power.

////////////////////

I took our guests to our training grounds and explained that our Knights constantly trained under increased gravity, sometimes under bad terrain and sometimes they fight with a numerical disadvantage, you cannot control the conditions of a real fight so you must be prepared for everything.

Then the old man showed an interest in the frame gears, Monica had finished two of the new frame gear models so I took them to see them, The new frame gear was the Saber type and Archer type, these were tested against some giant golems, which were quickly destroyed.

Hilde: incredible!

Galen: so these are the giant soldiers of Babylon?

Yuuki: They are called frame gears, currently we have three dozen of them and there are many more under construction.

Galen: What do you plan to do with all that power, your majesty?

Yuuki: It is for protection, all members of the alliance of our kingdoms will receive some frame gears, The reason we are building so many is because in the future the world will suffer a great invasion of the phrases.

Hilde: phrases, are you sure about that?

Yuuki: Pretty sure, but when that time comes I know we will be prepared, our alliance of kingdoms is powerful.

Galen: I see, then I think we should join this alliance, I have to talk to my son first but I doubt he will refuse.

Yuuki: That's good, not only the frame gears, I have many inventions that I would like to share with your kingdom.

Galen: Yes, I have heard of Your Majesty's other incredible creations, my granddaughter already received a personal gift from you.

Yumina: a personal gift for the princess of Lestia, why is this the first time I've heard of this Yuuki?

When the old man mentioned the gift I gave the princess, she blushed and looked down, she was carrying the same sword that I had given her the day we met, Before her grandfather could say more I heard Yumina's voice and when I turned around I saw that my Sekirei had appeared out of nowhere, Sakura and my maids were also there for some reason.

Galen: I must ask, do you intend to ask for my granddaughter's hand in marriage?

When her grandfather asked me that question, Princess Hilde turned redder and fidgeted, that was super cute, The girls looked at me carefully and Galen looked at me seriously while he waited for my answer, I don't know how things came to this but if the princess wasn't interested she wouldn't be responding that way, I have no problem with marrying a pretty knight princess, at least this time someone asked my opinion.

Yuuki: That's right, I was interested in her from the moment I saw her.

The princess was surprised by my answer but then she put on a sweet smile, I enjoyed her expression but things became serious when Tsukiumi took a step forward.

Tsukiumi: Wait, if you want to be part of our family you will have to prove yourself.

Tsukiumi stared at Hilde and she turned serious and stared back at her.

Hilde: very well, I came here wanting to fight against the strongest knight in his kingdom, test me however you want.
