"Y-You are...?"
The sight of the couple following La Folia left not only Shion but also Nagisa utterly astonished.
It was not merely because the couple had such distinctive features and an extraordinary bearing. It was also because of their appearances.
The burly man, who looked like a male lion, was one thing, but the noblewoman's appearance had clearly been carved from the same mold as La Folia's. She was simply far more mature than La Folia.
Now that such a couple had appeared alongside La Folia, did anyone really need to guess their identities?
"Let me introduce them to everyone."
While everyone was still shocked and incredulous, La Folia introduced them with a bright smile and an utterly ordinary tone.
"These two are my biological father and mother."
That was right.
This couple was La Folia's birth parents.
In other words...
"The current king and queen of the Aldeia Kingdom...!?"
Nagisa covered her mouth.
"Ugh..."
Aurora's entire body stiffened as well.
Shion's eyes widened slightly.
That was because, if the couple standing before them truly were the current king and queen of the Aldeia Kingdom, then Shion's relationship with them was far from ordinary.
After all, Shion was the former king of the Aldeia Kingdom's illegitimate daughter, La Folia's biological aunt, and the current queen's half-sister on their father's side.
In other words...
"You're Shion, right?"
The noblewoman, who was the current queen of the Aldeia Kingdom, looked at Shion gently and spoke in a soft voice.
"I'm Polyhymnia Lihavain, your sister who shares the same father."
Polyhymnia Lihavain was the biological daughter of the former king of the Aldeia Kingdom.
As for the husband beside her, he was the man who had married into the Aldeia royal family and subsequently become the king of the Aldeia Kingdom—Lucas Lihavain.
