My Childhood Friends Who I Thought Abandoned Me Are Obsessed With Me

14. The problem is you!

Episode 14. The problem is you!

At that time, Noha slowly opened her mouth.

“Still, I cannot disobey the princess’s orders.”

Chloe’s face brightened at Noha’s words.

“Sure!”

“Yes.”

Noha smiled lightly.

“Let me tell you what Tails wants and desires most.”

At his words, Chloe’s face widened.

It was as beautiful as if a neat lily had bloomed.

She asked with a look full of anticipation.

“Yes! What is it?”

My heart felt like it was racing.

What does Tail like?

A precious car?

Or flashy clothes?

Maybe you like cute craft jewelry.

Tail is surprisingly cute and weak against pitiful things.

‘This is an opportunity to learn about Tail’s taste!’

I feel like I’m getting one step closer to Tail, so my heart goes blank.

I was looking at No-Ha with great anticipation, but at that moment, No-Ha slowly moved her finger.

She curled her thumb and forefinger so that they touched, and opened her mouth with a solemn and serious expression.

“Money.”

“… Yes?”

Chloe put on a dazed expression for a moment.

“They say pure gold is the best.”

At his words, Chloe burst into laughter.

She said in a clear voice.

“Puha! Certainly. It’s like a materialistic tail.”

Chloe nodded her head in understanding.

It was because the answer was more like a tail than anyone else.

By the way.

Chloe muttered with a slightly troubled expression.

“I think it would be a pity if I just gave it as money….”

“Then how about doing this?”

At the words of Noha, Chloe’s face lit up.

***

A few days have passed.

Today, the particularly warm sunlight streamed in through the window and lazily stretched out on the bed.

Golden hair, shining brilliantly in the sunlight, was disheveled on the bed.

“Mmm.”

Chloe turned her head slightly as her eyes did not dazzle.

She tossed and turned slightly, and at that moment opened her eyes.

“Ah. It was today.”

Chloe muttered blankly, as if she hadn’t woken up yet.

Today.

It is today.

‘The day I go to prepare a present for Tail.’

Chloe slowly stood up.

After getting out of bed and putting on her clothes roughly.

She finally put on the big hood she wore when she first came here.

“Then let’s go.”

She boldly opened the door.

A smile full of anticipation was drawn on Chloe’s lips.

-I did.

“Ehh….”

Get off the ground, Chloe sighed.

‘No. Still, she’s better than being alone.’

Chloe glanced at her and glanced to the side.

At the same time, Chloe had no choice but to organize her thoughts.

Really.

Very much.

I saw the strongest-looking knight next to me.

Alan, a knight whose face even looked menacing, smiled slightly when he felt Chloe’s gaze on him.

“Is something wrong?”

You are the problem. It’s a problem.

The words reached the end of her throat, but Chloe held it in.

I originally planned to go alone, but as soon as Alan, the leader of the knights, found out about it, he chased after me.

She was the reason that if she, the princess, went wrong, she would be in big trouble.

I understood that.

However.

Chloe glanced behind her.

There doesn’t seem to be any feeling at all even if you hit it really hard.

Three proud knights of this country, boasting of strong bodies, were following them.

They were knights who came to find Chloe with Alan.

‘Why did they even bring other knights!’

Chloe let out a silent clamor.

In the end, thanks to them, all roads to Chloe were opened like Moses’ miracle.

Even though you can’t see her face, the common people bought their bodies because of her appearance that felt like an aristocrat to anyone.

If this happens, you won’t be able to fully enjoy the city.

“Eh Hyo Hyo Hyo….”

Chloe let out a long sigh.

Then Alan’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

“Who are you?”

His solemn voice rang low.

“Yes?”

Embarrassed, Chloe blinked her eyes.

“The Princess! I dare to ask who was the human who made it difficult for the only precious princess of our empire.”

Alan’s eyes burned brightly.

Then a knight behind her shouted.

“I will take care of it!”

Then the other knights scrambled and shouted.

“No! I can handle it more carefully!”

“I will cut you down with one knife!”

The faces of the surrounding commoners turned white because of the three knights arguing over who could send them off more neatly.

Alan, who heard that, prostrated himself to Chloe with a hard expression on his face.

“Just give me your order. I will get rid of everything I don’t like.”

Alan’s eyes were burning.

Chloe, who suddenly became the boss of the knights who threatened everything in the city, buried her burning face in her hands.

I really wanted to cry.

‘The problem is you!’

Swallowing the words that come up to the top of your throat.

* * *

Chloe immediately went to a forge.

This blacksmith was said to have the best skills in the city.

The exterior of the forge was very shabby.

Alan expressed disapproval at the appearance of the building, which looked messy at first glance.

“Princess. Are you sure you want to go here?”

Then she answered with a firm expression.

“Chloe.”

“Yes?”

Alan asked back as if he didn’t understand, and Chloe smiled softly and continued her words.

“If you say princess, you stand out too much, so please call me Chloe.”

“My, how could I do such a disrespectful thing!”

“If the other person is scared and can’t do the job properly or refuses. Sir Alan will be in charge?”

At Chloe’s determined words, Alan sighed and nodded.

“Okay. Princess…. No. Chloe.”

“And if possible, call me that at the monastery.”

“That. That!”

Smile.

Alan was the one who eventually lost to Chloe’s smile.

“Ha ha. I see.”

Only after receiving a confirmation from Alan, Chloe smiled broadly and opened the shabby blacksmith’s door.

With my daughter.

The bell hanging on the door rang slightly.

Then a middle-aged man who had been smoking a cigarette inside turned his head and met Chloe’s eyes.

Then his eyes widened and he jumped up.

The middle-aged man lowered his head at first sight of Chloe, who at a glance looked noble.

“Oh my gosh~ Welcome back. Customer.”

The man rubbed his hands and put on a face that looked as good as possible.

“What made you walk all the way here?”

Because he’s a noble, he’s cautious, but greed flowed from his eyes.

He should be like that, because the fact that a person who looked like a nobleman came all the way here means that he is asking for something important.

And the most important thing is that it costs money.

The man’s smile deepened as he heard the sound of the commission money coming in.

Then Chloe stepped up and continued.

“Are you the owner of this forge?”

“Yes. I am Hayson, the owner of this forge. Dear ones, please sit here for now.”

With a twitchy smile, Hayson led Chloe to her seat.

Before sitting down in her scruffy chair, she pulled out her large pouch and set it down on the table in front of Heyson.

Chalgrang.

Hearing the clear clash, Haysen instinctively turned her gaze to her pocket.

“Let’s open it.”

As soon as Chloe gave permission, Hayson’s wrinkled hand slipped open the pocket.

“This, this!”

Hundreds of brilliantly colored gold coins were inside.

It was enough to eat and play for the rest of my life.

Besides, his old blacksmith’s intuition said.

All these gold coins are real.

Hyson’s gaze did not leave the gold coin.

His mouth was dry and he kept salivating, so he swallowed dry saliva without realizing it.

Then Chloe’s mouth opened.

“I want to ask you something with these gold coins.”

Only then, Hasen’s eyes fell off the gold coins and looked at Chloe.

“Boo, would you like a favor?”

Chloe nodded at Hayson’s words.

“I want you to make a bouquet of roses with these gold coins.”

A golden rose made by melting 100 gold coins.

That was Tail’s gift from Noha.

Hasson’s eyes widened at Chloe’s words.

“Golden roses… You mean?”

“Is it possible?”

Hearing Chloe’s words, Hayson thumped his chest.

“Don’t worry too much. This is the most famous blacksmith in the area.”

Seeing him speak confidently, Chloe was relieved.

I wondered if it would be okay to leave it to him if he boasted this much.

“I’ll give it to you as a gift…. I wish you well. When it is finished, I will pay you the price of this gold coin.”

As much as these gold coins!

Hison’s face brightened as if he had been rejuvenated.

It wasn’t really about holding a stick.

Before, it was a complete jackpot.

Hayson replied with a big smile.

“Don’t worry. I think you can come back in a week. hahahaha.”

“Okay, then I’ll come back then.”

Chloe immediately prepared to return to the monastery.

Heisen came out to see Chloe off.

Hayson lowered his head as Chloe left.

“Then go carefully!”

“Sure. Please go in.”

Chloe has completely disappeared.

Hasson raised his head, and there was a meaningful smile on his face.
