「Even I wouldn’t be unfaithful to my fiancée.」
If this were precious tal instead of a flower ring, though, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was suspected of infidelity.
「That’s true, too. No matter how much you like it, if you’re being courted by soone other than your fiancée, you’re getting very ahead of yourself.」
「Fufu, if there is such a person, I would be delighted.」
It is an inadvertent true statent.
「Delighted… you say?」
I let out a giggle at Noah-sama’s dubious look.
「There is no future with my current fiancée. Our engagent will definitely be off the table, and I will have to find a new fiancée if that happens.」
In order to be the nanny of the heir to the throne, marriage is absolute, no matter how difficult it may be for in terms of age.
「It may be a bit much, but I would be happy if there were people who wanted . I’m not young anymore, and my reputation isn’t good.」
I’m not belittling myself, but I properly accept that as a fact. It’s true that my reputation is much higher than before, thanks to Noah-sama. But it doesn’t change the fact that I am past the marriageable age or the fact that my fiancé treated disrespectfully. Even being called a “brilliant woman” is a reason to be shunned in our country, where male chauvinism is still deeply rooted.
If there is soone who wants , it should preferably be soone who isn’t a nobody, but soone who is decent in his own way. At worst, I will have to cling to the authority of Their Majesties. I want that to be a last resort. Unwanted marriages produce nothing but misfortune.
「About that…」
I panicked when Noah-sama choked on his words.
「I–I am sorry. I only ant to embarrass myself by saying this to you, Noah-sama. Think of it as the ramblings of an unattractive woman.」
I shouldn’t, I shouldn’t have done that. My desire and anxiety leaked out.
「Don’t talk like that. It is outrageous to say that you are unattractive.」
「Fufu, thank you very much.」
Even though I know it is comforting, I am glad to hear it.
「You’re so kind, Noah-sama.」
Much more than I do.
「Marsha-dono, I…」
At that mont, Noah-sama was about to say sothing.
「Marsha!!!」
A voice I didn’t want to hear called my na out loud. No, it was more like being yelled at.
「……Raul… why are you in here…?」
Raul was there, as if waiting for , in the corridor leading to the Queen’s Palace.
「I’ve been waiting for you, Marsha. I need to talk to you.」
He had no regard for my convenience.
「I don’t have to.」
Besides, I am talking to Noah-sama right now. You are nothing but a distraction, and how self-serving of you to interrupt people’s conversations. If he at least shows a pretense of being offended, why is he glaring at Noah-sama, this fool did dare to!?
「Marsha, please. Listen to …」
Ehh, I think this is a mistake, that I want to hear『excuse』instead of a『talk.』Of course I don’t have ti for that kind of crap.
「I don’t need to hear about it, and if you have ti to do this in the first place, wouldn’t you be better off working proactively on the theft case?」
Or what? Do you want to intercede for you because it’s only a matter of ti before you are demoted? I absolutely refuse to do that, you son of a bitch.
「I know. I’m going to clear your na. I promise. So let’s talk…!」
Usually you wouldn’t speak unless I urged you to do so, but today you’re very eloquent. Even this makes angry.
「Then will you please make sure you get it all sorted out?」
If that’s the case, I’m willing to listen to you at least a hundred steps. After you are demoted from your position as commander of the 4th Unit.
「Then it’s too late…」
Yes, talk about cronyism, assertion. It’s stupid and repulsive.
「You don’t know what your words an to her, do you?」
Perhaps his disgust was showing, but as he interrupted his body between and Raul to protect , Noah-sama said.
「This is none of your business. I’m going to have to ask you to stay out of this!」
Raul’s anger intensifies when Noah-sama interrupts him.
「I find it hard to understand your point of view. It was you who originally forced your way into my conversation with her, though, wasn’t it?」
「That…!」
「And what about forcing her to do it even though she doesn’t want to?」
“Is that the proper way to be a knight,” Noah-sama says with a contemptuous look in his eyes.
「…kuh!」
It’s pathetic that he can’t even say it back. And I don’t think Raul has ever experienced a look of contempt or disgust. He has always been looked at with respect, admiration, and longing.
「Well, I guess that’s that, then.」
I don’t want to talk to Raul any more. I don’t even want to look at him. I turn on my heel and walk away with my back to Raul.
「Marsha…!」
Even after all this, I still feel nauseous when Raul calls my na as if he is clinging to without giving up.
「Will you even stop…」
Just as I was about to shout, “it,” throwing off my lady’s mask, the noise coming from the Queen’s Palace stopped from speaking. The noise made everyone turn their heads to the Queen’s Palace.
「Marsha-sama, Marsha-sama!! There’s a huge problem!!」
Running out of the Queen’s Palace were the maids attached to the Queen’s Palace and mbers of the 2nd Unit.
What a day! I was so surprised that Noah-sama, Raul, and even the maids and knights of the queen’s palace called up.
「What’s wrong?」
The maid, looking more flustered than ever, tries to explain with gestures but can’t get the point across.
「Calm down, it’s alright. Now, take a deep breath and when you calm down, will you tell what happened?」
After rubbing the maid’s back to calm her down, she slowly began to talk about the situation.
