I was walking the streets of the royal capital with Julius, who had been called by Ange.
I was told to walk around the royal city, alone with Julius.
Two guys going out together or something like that makes me sad.
Despite that, Julius was in a good mood.
“I was told I could tour the food stalls on your dime. Why don’t we tour my recommendations here, but also explore new ones.” He turns his useless, sparkling, handsome smile on me.
The women walking around were fascinated by Julius.
――What’s the point of you smiling at me like that?
I won’t have a crush on you.
“A tour of the food stalls, are you okay with that, as a prince?”
“This is also a daily practice. But it’s a hobby and partly for practical purposes, though.”
“No, that’s not what I asked you.”
Why do you get to have so much fun just walking around with the dude?
Julius feels like a mysterious creature I don’t understand, and as I look at him curiously, Luxion speaks to me.
[Master, I’ve identified some suspicious individuals in the area.]
“Is that an assassin?”
Even like this, I have a billion-yen bounty on my head from another country.
There are people out there who are trying to kill me, but this time it seems to be different.
[No, they seem to be investigating the Master’s friendships. As Angelica mentioned, there is a lot of commotion around Master]
“It’s a pity that they are desperately trying to find out about my friendships.”
[I agree. This country, where Master is such an important figure, is already at its end.]
“Can’t you be nicer? Would you be nicer if I gave you an order?” Wouldn’t he be a little nicer partner if I ordered him to do so?
Such faint hopes are soon shattered.
[After considering the good measures to be taken forward, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to do so.]
“What do you mean “considering”, after giving a quick answer?”
As I was having a routine conversation with Luxion, Julius looked around and let out a small sigh.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this way. No, more than me?”
When I looked at him to see what he was talking about, Julius led me to the restaurant with a serious expression on his face.
Walking quickly, he weaves his way through the crowd.
“Oi, what’s wrong?”
“There’s quite a few of them watching us. Leon’s even more popular than I am.” I see Julius laughing, and it makes me angry.
“Only nasty people come to me”
“I used to feel the same way.”
I could understand a little bit how Julius felt about being the crown prince, the one who was getting all the attention.
It is certainly uncomfortable to be watched all the time.
And Julius asks me what will happen from now on.
“It’s going to be tough from now on. The royal palace, of course, will be noisy, but so will the school.”
“Is that so?”
“That’s the way it is. That being said, I hear you and Angelica are getting along well.”
“Idi! Don’t say getting along well.”
Julius tilted his head, but continued talking as if he didn’t care.
“She no longer looks thoughtful. She is more full of energy than ever before. You’re going to have a hard time now, aren’t you.”
Having had her mind blown, Ange became tougher in many ways.
Thanks to that, I am overwhelmed.
[She already dominates.]
“Oi!”
[Isn’t that the fact?]
Unable to say anything back, I turn my face away, and Julius laughs.
“I knew you were more than me. ――Do well, Leon.” I guess the “do well” part includes the future.
It’s not just about Ange.
“I don’t need to be told.”
