I was in my room with my head in my hands when Finley told me what happened at lunch.
“How am I supposed to apologize to Viscount Hogan?”
If I apologize that ‘my big sister seduced your son, will you forgive me?’ No, I don’t think so.
If I were Viscount Hogan, I would be outraged to learn that my heir had been seduced.
Ange makes a dumbfounded face as she prepares a drink for my dejected self.
“You don’t have to worry about it so much. Isn’t Viscount Hogan rather pleased?”
“It’s my sister?! It’s that sister who played around a lot when I was in school and caused me a lot of trouble?! I pity Oskar so much.”
He’s an idiot but a good guy, but the woman he falls in love with is pretty bad.
I wanted them to break up for Oskar’s sake because I know Jenna as a person well.
Yes, for the sake of Oskar!
Why do I have to worry about the romance of the guy who is the capture target of the third work?
Perhaps Ange is tired of talking about this, so she switches the subject to cutting ties with her parents’ home.
“More importantly, it will soon be known that I have broken off relations with my parents’ family. If that happens, the palace and the school will be in an uproar. People around you will be wondering what you’re up to.”
Apparently, everyone is looking to see whose side I’m on.
I wish they would have paid more attention to something else.
The best tea gentleman in the school, or something like that.
“I don’t want to be the center of attention”
“The price you paid for choosing me was high.”
“――I guess I’ll just have to endure it then”
With a giggle, Ange lets me know how I should act in the future.
“Show them that Leon is friendly with the royal palace. Make it look like you are friendly with His Highness Julius.”
“With Julius? What about Erika and Jake?”
If it’s all about appearing friendly with royalty, Erika and Jake are no different.
However, Ange was fixated on Julius.
“His Highness Jake is too ambitious. If you get close to him, he might use the relationship to stir up trouble for the position of Crown Prince.”
“That Jake? Even though he’s crazy about Aare-chan?” The two are often seen together in school.
I heard that Jake is chasing her.
It seems that Aare-chan is also not dissatisfied and is happy about it.
―― But they are both men. No, one of them changed sex and became a woman, but the problem is that there is no concept of sex change in this world.
Therefore, no matter how feminine Aare-chan is, she is treated as a man on documents and in the family register.
Ange is also aware of this fact and is worried about Jake.
“If His Highness Jake knew the truth, he would have a rough time.”
“If things get rough, I’ll beat them up with Arroganz and make them as merry as Julius and others.”
“Think of it as a last resort. Also, stop tea parties with Princess Erika to a minimum.” I don’t understand the reason why Erika is not good.
As I was tilting my head, Ange reached out and pinched my cheek.
“Ange, it hurts”
“It’s because you look like you don’t understand. I don’t want you to get close to Princess Erika, partly because of politics, but mostly because of my personal selfishness.”
“Eh?”
Ange removes her hand from my cheek and gently strokes the red, swollen area with her fingertips.
“It’s jealousy. Besides, if you get too close to her, Milene-sama will make a move. She will do anything to protect her country.”
Ange lets go of her hand and tells me about Milene-san, who I don’t know.
She wants me to have more sense of danger.
“When that person was married, there was a lot of fuss that the United Kingdom of Leparto had played its trump card. She’s the one who was rumored to have been the eventual queen of the allied countries.”
“Milene-san is amazing.”
When I am impressed, Ange doesn’t look amused and I cough to cover it up.
It seems that Ange had served as an apprentice in the past by Milene-san’s side and had heard a lot about her from her.
“The United Kingdom has been tormented by Raschel for years. Knowing that, that person was desperate to hold up the military alliance and suppress Raschel.”
“So she’s going to use her daughter?”
“Although she has sentiments, she is also a person who can make decisions as a royalty. In fact, Erika-sama was betrothed to a legitimate son of the Fraser family when she was very young.”
I have a complicated feeling because it was my niece from a previous life who got engaged.
Ange concludes with a joke.
“So I don’t recommend it, personally or politically. Now that I’ve said all this, you’ll reconsider, won’t you?”
I pull back slightly as Ange comes closer to my face.
“You’re more aggressive than before.”
“I stopped thinking about it. You don’t get my indirect expressions of affection.”
When I can’t say anything, there is a knock at the door.
“Who are they at a time like this?”
When I stood up from my chair, Ange narrowed her eyes.
It seems she has an idea who the visitor is.
“While I prefer that he come before time, I wish he’d be more thoughtful.”
“Eh, did you call someone?”
“It’s His Highness Julius.”
