Breaking Off the Engagment 1

「Lillina, please pretend that your engagement with me never happened.」

After receiving the summon from my fiance, Leon-sama, I came to the garden of the royal palace, which was also his home, and saw a lovely woman stuck next to him.

「Lillina, I’m thinking of marrying Ange.」

Hmmhmm, which means I don’t have to continue receiving that severe queen education huh?

It was originally a promise made between the two families.

Since Leon-sama, this country’s first prince, said he wanted to break off the engagement, then it’s all good, isn’t it?

So as not to show my pleasure at having slipped out of the queen training in my expression, I answered while looking down slightly.

「Leon-sama, I understood what you said. Well then, please excuse me.」

Once I said that to Leon-sama, I immediately left the garden behind me.

Ok! First, I’ll bring the news to Father and the King.

Since Father serves as the prime minister of this kingdom, if it’s at this moment, he should be at work with the King.

Although I normally don’t do things like interfere with work, being what it was, it should be fine right?

Conveying to the person guarding outside that it was something urgent, I relied on him to immediately convey the message to Father.

Father – maybe since he was surprised by his daughter’s rare, or perhaps I should say, first visit – quickly let me in as well.

When I entered, sure enough, Father and the King were both inside.

「Lillina. What on earth happened? For you to come as far as my workplace…」

「Aah, Miss Lillina. Tell us, what’s wrong? Have you got a problem?」

The pair seemed perplex with how different my conduct was from the usual.

For now, I should probably explain.

「I’m truly sorry to intrude during work. However, there is an incident that I must inform you immediately」

Father looked my way anxiously.

「Earlier, I’ve received recommendation from Leon-sama to break off our engagement」

Trembling, the king stood up from his chair while Father stared at me with eyes wide open.


「It seems Leon-sama found a woman he wanted to marry besides me. So, I told him I understood and came here immediately」

「M-miss Lillina. Could there have been some mistake?」

The king trembled as he posed this question to me.

「No, earlier, when I was summoned to the garden to be told this, Leon-sama had a lovely woman by his side and he declared that he wanted to marry her.」

The color drained from the king’s face upon hearing my words.

In contrast, my own father had on a smiling face. An extraordinarily evil one at that.

「…My King. May I ask, what is the meaning of this?」

The King, who was asked by my smiling father, flinched.

「W-wait just a moment! There must be some kind of mistake! Something like breaking off the engagement isn’t possible. First of all, there’s no way Leon would do such a thing」

I think I didn’t make a mistake about it, though….

He told even told me in person.

「My King. Honorable Father. I have accepted the cancellation of the engagement. If Leon-sama can be together with the person that he, from the bottom of his heart, loves, then I’m fine with it. If possible, I’d like to return to our territory and rest. Since I was known as his fiancee, wouldn’t I just be an inconvenience? If the two of you permit it, I will immediately depart as is.」

Upon my words, the king turned from blue to white.

In contrast, Father was smiling meaninglessly.

「A-approving such a thing is something I canno..」

「Aah, do as you like.」

Father gave me his acknowledgement covering the King’s words.

「No, wait just a moment, as I said, there must be some kind of mistak…」

「There is no reason for a mistake, is there? After all, my own daughter heard the words herself.」

Even though Father has been cutting off the King’s words since a while ago, is that really okay?

「Lillina. It must have been tough for you. But, you did your very best to receive the queen’s training. A daughter that will never shame me no matter where you are shown. Now, take your time resting in our territory, this time for sure, I’ll immediately find you a wonderful marriage partner.」

While saying this, Father gazed at me gently.

The King was freezing under the absolutely frigid look that Father staring at the King with.

Although I didn’t receive the King’s approval, it looks like it’s been worked out.

「Well then, pardon me for having come here. I’m sorry to have intruded on your work.」

With a flawless gesture fostered from my queen training, I left the office behind me
