Chapter52，Part1
What the Crown Prince Wants
The three headaches of this school, myself, Flare, and Alice, along with Ian, the Pri Minister’s son, all head for the Crown Prince’s room.
Flare suggested simply summoning the Crown Prince because it would be a hassle, but Alice blad for taking up too much of their ti, and I was too tired to waste any more ti, so I appealed to them to let him eat the weeds (that were growing next to the water outlet) as soon as possible, and Flare agreed to go see the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince, you poor thing.
Ian, Flare, and the Crown Prince Julio had been childhood friends, and Ian had been a proud boy since he was a child, but Flare seed to have knocked him down at every turn, and he grew up to be a rather gloomy character.
“Look, you only wanted to show off to a pretty girl, didn’t you? Now you have deteriorated beyond help, and it’s annoying, so I’m torturing you.”
“Nn.”
Well, if that was the reason, I couldn’t bla her.
In fact, he also happened to et around that ti, though I doubt there was any connection.
And as for why I was walking alongside Flare, Ian wanted to walk next to Alice and didn’t want or Flare in his sight, so it was inevitable that I and Flare would be together.
…No, it’s inevitable, isn’t it? I couldn’t be distracted because she would try to kill every once in a while as a test. By the way, if it hadn’t been for the poison resistance that began to fuse with and my player character, I might have died two or three tis already.
But Flare laughed happily when I didn’t die.
Maybe this feeling was similar to the female skinship in my previous life, when my friends would suddenly tickle at a girls’ school.
Though could you please stop trying to kill with your playful banter?
“We’re here. I’m going with Alice to report our arrival to His Highness, and you guys can wait here…”
“I’m coming along, Carol.”
“Nn.”
“Ah, wait!”
Ian said as soon as we arrived at the royal family’s special wing, and Flare led the way, followed by and Alice.
“Hey!” I heard Ian’s voice from behind .
I could hear Ian’s voice behind us, but I didn’t think it was appropriate to ignore Alice, let alone Flare, so I decided to go with them.
*Chirin.
“Ah, that’s the sound of a copper coin falling.”
I drop the coins on the floor, and they bounce around before Alice jumps up and stuffs them into her pockets. It’s good to know she’s not deaf after all. Also, why aren’t you returning the coins to ?
*Slam!
Flare opened the door without knocking, completely unconcerned with this exchange.
“Julio, I’m coming in!”
“Flare-san, it’s not polite to co in without permission.”
Julio and Flare were already in the room.
“Flare? What’s wrong, and Alice is with you too?”
The boy at the office desk stood up from the back of the room that resembled an office.
Ian didn’t recognise him right away because of his disfigured appearance, but I recognised him because of his blond hair, blue eyes, and princely appearance, which matched the Oto Ga artwork.
“Julio, eat your worm.”
“Julio, you want to eat my cicada, right?”
“I don’t understand what you an!”
Well, as expected. Julio looked around as if looking for help, and his eyes widened a little when he spotted .
“The dark-haired half-elf…you must be Miss Carol, my uncle’s fiancée. I am Julio, the King’s son. I heard that the young lady who was engaged to my uncle and is not good at socializing was a half-elf, and I wanted to et her, but my mother wouldn’t give permission.“
Julio smiled softly and calmly, then kneeled in front of , took my hand, and lightly touched it with his lips.
“I’m sorry. Did I make you feel uncomfortable about being my uncle’s dainty fiancée?“
“…”
I was rather baffled by the impression I got from him compared to what I know from the Oto Ga.
Huh? He seed like a pretty decent guy. I thought that since he was the head of the nobility in this country and the son of the king, he must surely have had strange interests, but there were also people like Cam who beca normal in other countries, so maybe I was looking at him with a prejudiced eye.
“Oh, I really like your elf hair. Do you mind if I touch it?”
“…”
I felt sothing strange and unintentionally took a step back.
If it were a normal young lady of noble birth, it would be a scene that would make her swoon, and though it was much better than Dirk touching in a sexually harassing manner, the light in his eyes seed strange to .
“Oh my, Julio has beco quite a man that you would touch a woman in front of your fiancée, even if said person is soone else’s fiancée.”
“Flare…”
Oh, did I ntion that Flare and Julio were engaged? When Flare interrupted, Julio blatantly frowned.
“Well, for now, eat my insect dishes! You’ll get triple points for it!”
Was this the ti for that? And what was she talking about?
In the midst of the awkward atmosphere, Alice pulled a bag of cicadas from her pocket.
“Ugh.”
Julio, who hated insects, groaned when he was shown a larger number of cicadas than expected, and…for so reason, he nodded his head, his eyes glowing brightly.
“If you say so, I’ll eat them…”
