Louis’ expression was frozen and showed no sign of relaxing.

It was because of what I just heard.

-Isn’t it weird that people see people like me as women?

‘Someone like me… .’

Estee said that she forgave him for his slip of the tongue.

But ultimately, these words only served to further aggravate his guilt.

… How low must one’s self-esteem be to belittle oneself like that?

That too, the third princess of Abruen.

The youngest daughter of the royal family, deserving of everyone’s love.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt like my heart was going to break with guilt.

however,

-Thud, thud.

“Be careful what you say.”

“… … .”

Esti, who is much smaller than me, strokes my head while swaying my knees.

The guilt that had been eating away at my heart with that small gesture turned into fuel.

As fuel to burn the determination in your heart.

-Mumble mumble.

“I’ll atone for it somehow, Estee. Even if it means giving my all.”

‘… I’m going to heal Esti’s wounds while I’m at the Academy. Somehow.’

It is not befitting the name of Blezère to be sad and say, “What should I do, what should I do?”

I will take back the mistakes I have made with my own hands.

I will make Estee happy.

Under this absolute proposition, his head began to spin violently.

‘But how?’

Esti’s self-esteem as a woman that she had destroyed. Happiness.

What exactly needs to be done to get it back?

The conclusion came quickly.

‘In the end, is there no choice but to find someone who will love Esti as a woman?’

A plan that the royal family has tried countless times over the years but failed.

Find Estee’s fiancé.

No matter how much I thought about it, this was the only answer.

To teach love to a girl who is torturing herself because she thinks she will never be loved. To heal her wounds.

Let’s find the best spouse for you.

-Sigh.

“Louis, are you okay now?”

“… … Yeah.”

‘I will definitely find someone who is suitable for Estee.’

… … It was typical of Blazer’s bloodline to only look for tall, big-breasted women, with no thought of loving Esti directly in sight.

* * *

After a while.

Louis followed Estee around the Academy.

It was because of her request to freely walk around the academy.

-Louis! Let’s go for a walk together!! I want to see the Academy!!

-… As much as you want.

– Hehe. Then, you guys go to the entrance ceremony hall first. I’ll go for a walk!

-Your Highness, as your escort, that is not possible… .

-Don’t worry, Louis will be my escort!! It’ll be a hassle if you guys follow me!!

-… If Prince Louis is with you. I understand, Your Highness.

The two of them walk, even without being escorted.

Within, Estee’s white hair fluttered from side to side.

-Dori dori.

“Hey~.”

“… Is getting into the academy that good? I didn’t know you liked magic that much.”

“Huh? Oh, right. I couldn’t leave the palace for three years while I was growing out my hair. I learned it when I was bored, but it was more fun than I thought. ”

Esti, who was very excited, was looking around here and there like a chick picking up grain.

Louis walked beside him, writing down the information in his mental notebook.

‘Estie likes magic… Hmm. If possible, it would be good to find someone with the same hobby.’

Valuable information for ‘Estee Matchmaking’.

After sorting out that information, he turned his gaze to look at Estee.

-Thump thump.

“Is this it? No, is it over there~?”

‘… I don’t know if I’ll ever find a suitable partner for him.’

Louis’ heart felt a little heavy at the sight of her innocent face.

A companion fit for a good child like this saint who even protects herself, who has given herself incurable wounds.

I was wondering if I could find it for myself.

But his worries soon disappeared.

It was because Esti had finally caught sight of her target after continuously looking around.

‘Hey, I finally found it. Haha.’

-Hehe.

“Louis, Louis!! Look what’s going on over there, let’s go!!”

A smile spread across Estee’s lips.

A very evil, dark laugh, in my opinion.

A cute smile that may seem a bit silly to others.

Louis chuckled at that smile.

‘Okay. Let’s think about this slowly.’

“Yeah. But, don’t stay more than 3m away from me. If you stay further away, I may not be able to protect you in some cases.”

“Yeah!!”

After that, the sound of thumping footsteps and thudding footsteps overlapped and echoed.

-Growling.

“Oh, no. There are circumstances here… .”

———Towards the backwaters, where a small commotion was taking place.

* * *

After comforting the crying Louis.

I started exploring the heroine under the pretext of taking a walk.

We had the TS Brigade search for him but we couldn’t find him…

Today is the day when the real story begins.

She’s bound to show up, you know.

I’m sure he’s somewhere right now involved in an unfortunate accident, so I wanted to find him as soon as possible.

And, just as I expected.

Not long after, an incident occurred.

-Growling.

-Wow, that’s a surprise!!

-I feel sick… .

-Dirty, unclean.

‘This is it!!’

“Louis? What’s going on over there? Let’s go.”

A commotion heard thanks to hearing amplified by auditory magic.

I quickly led Louis to the scene.

-Whoosh.

-Your Highness, what is the matter?

-Shall we follow?

-The way you walk is cute♡

‘…Why are there so many onlookers!!’

The audience follows us in droves.

… Well, the noble princess and the eldest son of Blazer are running together. You must be curious about what’s going on.

But what was happening there was nothing to spectate about.

I cast an illusion spell to shake off the crowd.

-Ugh.

‘Come out, glow-in-the-dark dinosaur!!’

What I created was an illusion of Louis and me riding on a luminous dinosaur.

Because it was hastily put together, it was so crude that anyone with a keen eye could tell at a glance that it was an illusion…

Even if I realized that this was an illusion, it didn’t matter.

-What, what is this!?

-Why did the princess and Prince Louis suddenly get in a strange lump of dough?

-Hey, look closely, welcome… Hey, you’re walking backwards!!!!!?

-Oh my god. What am I looking at right now…?

‘A moonwalking luminous dinosaur. How can you stand it?’

Even my magic master was amazed when he first saw it, wondering how he could fool his eyes. How can ordinary people tolerate that?

Because of that, the people who were chasing us stopped in an instant.

-Stop.

“… What is that?”

“Louis, what are you going to do if you stop too? This older sister will show you everything later, so let’s go for now.”

“Uh, yeah… .”

There was an unfortunate incident where even Louis stopped for a moment because he was too faithful to his romanticism, but anyway.

After weeding out the useless spectators, we headed back to the center of the commotion.

A remote area of the academy. A place where there aren’t many people.

Before long, I noticed a dozen or so people gathered together.

…and the mud-covered girl they surrounded.

-Growling.

“Ugh, ugh… It hurts… .”

“What the hell are you? Where did you come from? What the hell is that dirty thing?”

“That, that. There.”

A woman sitting on the floor, holding her head.

My eyes quickly scanned her.

Brown hair. Yellow eyes. Round braids.

The appearance of the female protagonist, ‘Irene’, described in the novel was exactly the same.

However, despite finding Irene whom he had been looking for for so long.

Only question marks floated above my head.

“… … … ?”

‘What the heck is that…? Did you film it for 19 nights and 20 days?’

No matter where you look, the clothes don’t look like they’ve been dirty in a day or two.

Her appearance, as if she had been homeless for several weeks, was completely different from the heroine I remember from the very beginning of the original work.

That’s why I couldn’t bring myself to intervene and just stopped.

-Stop.

‘Isn’t that him?’

Me stopping for a moment to assess the situation. Louis following suit.

Louis’ eyes kept moving back and forth between the heroine, Irene, and me.

“EST? Because of him… .”

“———I’m sorry for meeting you for the first time, but this is the first time I’ve seen you look so upset.”

“… … Hmm?”

As they were doing this, the most extravagantly dressed woman among them stepped forward.

He spits out rude words at the objectively pretty and lovely Irene, saying that she looks bad.

Louis and my heads tilted at the same time.

‘Was that Shepor Youngae? She didn’t seem like a bad person. What are you saying to our pretty heroine?’

“It’s definitely a bit dirty, but is that really it?”

Because we all disagreed with that bad review.

Besides, I had met that woman before.

While the two of us stood there dumbfounded, Irene hurriedly threw her arms out.

“Oh, no. There are circumstances here… .”

“You suddenly jumped out of the bushes in such a dirty appearance. Why did you have to fall down in front of me?”

“… … That’s because I was in a hurry, afraid I’d be late for the academy entrance ceremony.”

“Did you crawl on the ground like a bug? If you feel bad about your appearance, you should at least wear proper clothes.”

The words of a woman who was extremely sharp were poured out on that pitiful sight.

There was a hint of anger in her voice.

As if the heroine in front of me was a ‘witch’ who should be hated.

Only then was I sure.

‘I think it’s Irene after all.’

She is the heroine.

Hated by everyone to the point of being suspicious…

———The last witch left alive in this world. Irene.

At the same time, with confidence.

I stretched out my legs.

Speaking in a very sophisticated, so-called ‘socialite voice’.

“You, if you look at your appearance right now, you’re definitely a witch… .”

-Thump thump.

“Oh my, Shepor Youngae. It’s been a while.”

“… … !!!!!?”

She, Shepor Youngae, was startled and screamed as soon as she heard my voice.

“Hey, Princess Estee!!!?”

“It’s been half a year since we last met after the founding of the country?”

‘How dare you touch our heroine? She’s the switch that will destroy the world.’

But I didn’t care and stood between Irene and her.

As if to protect her from the world’s malice.

Irene’s tearful eyes turned to me.

“… … Huh?”

‘Just wait a moment. I don’t know about the Witch’s Life, but here, you will only walk on a flower path.’

-Oh, damn it.

“ST. I told you not to fall more than 3m.”

“Uh, uh… ?”

‘…with your prince charming on a white horse!’

Golden eyes naturally turned to Louis, who was standing next to me.

When I finally saw the two of them together, my smile grew even brighter.

Because my favorite couple has been having a romantic meeting from the beginning.

There’s no way you wouldn’t laugh.

‘What, what, what are you two doing when you first meet? Am I good at reading?’

“Kuh, keuhk… Louis, can you wipe that girl’s face? It’s a shame to lose the prettiest face in the world, right?”

“Um… … ? Well, if you want.”

After pushing Louis’ back and even organizing an event for him.

I smiled and fixed my gaze on Young-ae in front of me.

To naturally bring the heroine under my protection.

Furthermore, to solidify the fact that ‘this is mine, the moment you touch it, it will be mine and yours.’

It wasn’t difficult.

Because the class difference was severe.

‘Was she the second daughter of a writer? I don’t know why someone with a certain amount of influence in the social world came to the academy, but… Good. If we just suppress her, it will spread to all the nobles.’

“But, I’m a little disappointed.”

“Uh, Uh. Your Majesty. I don’t… .”

“Shepor Youngae, I didn’t see it like that.”

‘I lost to you, and I told you while crying. Irene and I are now one body. Any attack on Irene will be considered an attack on me, the Third Princess.’
