After changing one’s clothes, I change another one.

When I feel like I’ve chosen something that looks good, I change into another outfit.

Harnier tried on all kinds of dresses as if she were a doll.

In the end, the clothes and decorations prepared for just one day made her look brilliant.

The employees at the top were very excited.

People who chose their own clothes have wide shoulders as if they have pads.

In particular, it goes without saying that Mina took the lead in all of these instructions.

Leaving those people behind, Harnier heads to the exchange meeting venue.

Even though I had experienced it before, it was difficult.

I woke up early in the morning, poured all the good perfumes and medicinal herbs, and washed to the point where I thought I was losing weight.

Afterwards, I sat on a chair for several hours and got dressed up, so my body ached when I rode in the carriage.

But on the other hand, expectations are ahead.

‘If Karssein sees it… how will he react?’

For just one person.

For the man I like.

As a fiancee who supports Karssein, who will be active in this martial arts competition.

On the one hand, I am looking forward to seeing how people will react to me with all my makeup. With a slight blush on his face.

Before we knew it, the carriage had arrived at the exchange meeting venue.

Harnier immediately began searching for Carcein inside.

But this was a mistake.

I forgot that there were too many eyes targeting me ahead of my expectations.

“Oh my. To come with such intentions and decorations…!”

“You’re probably trying to seduce men, right?”

“The person who said he had a fiancé… then that’s right. You can’t hide your true nature.”

“Who are you trying to charm again this time?”

The voices of ladies from the social world.

Whenever I come dressed like this, my eyes light up.

pointing fingers He clicks his tongue asking who the target is this time.

That was Harnier’s mistake, earning him the bad nickname of the social snake. It was as if I had given those people something to ponder over.

Only then did Harnier come to his senses and maintain a poker face.

‘are you okay. ‘You’re familiar with this, right?’

Hearing what I’ve always heard one more time didn’t change anything.

…however.

“Hmph. After all, she’s just an illegitimate girl. Don’t you have to act expensive to avoid growing up and not being treated properly in your own family? Since I don’t have any abilities or anything, I’m trying to become a scarecrow’s wife by sticking with that lowly member of the Bagland duchy. Just leave it alone. Tsk tsk.”

Even if you try to ignore it, it doesn’t mean it won’t hurt you at all.

I can’t help but feel depressed by the deep criticism of my status as an illegitimate child and the pure criticism that all I have is my appearance.

How hard did I try?

Without knowing anything!

Harnier harbors resentment inside.

But it is obvious what will happen if you step out here.

There is no one on her side in this place. Therefore, all kinds of exaggerations and fabrications will be added and it will spread as a bad rumor.

You may feel aggrieved and ask why you have to listen to those words, but the right answer was to quietly swallow them and move on. Just like it always has been.

That was when Harnier was about to turn his back with his ears closed.

-Pow!

A heavy sound was heard from somewhere.

Soon there was a loud crash and someone fell.

I vaguely know the direction.

This is where she turned her back.

It was a place where young ladies from the social world gossiped about being vulgar.

And this is where the man who had just laughed at Harnier, saying that she would be a scarecrow’s wife.

-Kongdak, Kongdak.

‘…no way.’

A thought suddenly occurred to me and my heart started beating again.

Carefully.

I turned my head very cautiously.

The black hair coming in from the edge of his field of vision made Harnier’s heart beat once again.

-Excited!

“Ugh, ugh…! What is this…!”

“It would have been appropriate if he had knelt down and apologized from the beginning, but you can’t do that. You fucking bastard.”

-puck! Pow! puck!

“Ugh, ugh, that, stop. Stop… Ugh…”

“Don’t treat someone like that in front of other people, your fiancee, or your fiancé.”

No one has ever expressed anger on Harnier’s behalf.

A person who does things to look good.

An approachable person who gave a sinister look as if comforting him.

A person who aims for something and artificially sets it up.

It was full of people like that.

But he was different.

At this moment, Karsein is expressing pure anger.

For her and no one else.

Even though I knew clearly what would happen, I moved for one person.

It was a scene that made it clear that Harnier’s side clearly existed in this place where everyone thought they would just ponder and ignore it.

-Excited!

That the man she cares about moves for her.

It was something that made my heart race.

but.

-Pow! Pow!

With the sound of a bloody blow, blood was pouring down from Yeongsik’s head.

Harnie also comes to his senses.

‘that’s right. I shouldn’t be doing this either.’

Since this uproar has occurred, there will be repercussions.

…no.

“Me, me, me…!”

It’s already here.

***

“Me, me, me…!”

“Are you throwing a fist at a sacred exchange meeting?”

“It’s been so long since you caused trouble at a martial arts tournament that you did something like this again…!”

The commotion spreads.

It spreads and spreads again, like a thick dye in water spreads.

Of course, there is room for refutation.

Since it is true that he framed his fiancée, he was able to use this fact to assert the legitimacy of his actions.

If you mention that you recited such harsh words while your fiancé was listening right next to you, the mood can quickly turn around.

however.

“Oh my god. Look at the face. That young-sik won’t even be able to participate in the competition.”

“Are they keeping other participants in check in this way because they lack skills?”

“Such vulgarity…! If that’s true, you should be disqualified from participating as punishment!”

In the process, exaggerations and fabrications are added more and more.

What the person who provided the cause said or did was left out of the spotlight, negating this legitimacy.

Much less able to obtain evidence.

When it comes to mentioning that someone was gossiping, that side has the upper hand in terms of numbers. If you decide to hide it, there is no answer.

So, he’s smiling.

“Pfft. Sigh. You committed it. You’re screwed now. Carcein.”

“Are you going to say that I gossiped about my fiancee? What should I do with this? Almost everyone here will be on our side. What will happen if your family finds out?”

“We just had a very fair conversation.”

Because there is a good reason for that.

really. These guys are obvious.

Well, I had experienced this many times in real life, so I was familiar with this. Going through that experience twice doesn’t change anything.

Okay.

“Carcein.”

Meanwhile, Harnier came up to me and grabbed my arm.

“I’m fine. This is enough… let’s back off. Yes?”

She wants to step down as if she doesn’t care about this kind of harassment.

Even if he hears gossip from others, he seems to have decided that it would be wiser to ignore it and tells him to step down.

There was no need to ask if it was okay.

That face is an all too familiar one. It was the same face as Ji-eun, who ignored bullying as if it were everyday life.

…So I couldn’t back down even more.

“I have thoughts. Harnier. Can’t you believe it?”

Harnier pauses for a moment at that question.

“I believe it. If you are.”

I quickly confessed my concerns.

okay. This is enough.

***

▶It caused an uproar at the exchange meeting venue!◀

▶After hearing the commotion, someone from the family randomly appears.◀

▶If the problem cannot be resolved, you must perform a subsequent sub-episode.◀

If you rebut when everyone is pointing fingers, you will be framed.

However, if you mess up, you will escalate the situation and end up incurring more penalties on your family.

But in my experience, there is a very good way to screw your partner.

Not giving a rebuttal or waiting without saying anything. First of all, that was the biggest reason.

I’m sure.

The method I used back then will work well here as well.

Whether it was the systematic part or the part based on my experience, this was the correct answer.

So I waited.

Until the voices of the family are heard.

“It’s unfair. We just talked about other things.”

“You are that fiancé and that fiancee.”

“You’re trying to frame someone else like this.”

“Isn’t it too much to do?”

When there was no response, pressure was applied from the other side first.

‘It’s almost time to arrive.’

Enough time had passed for the commotion to be heard and for the story to reach someone’s ears.

I was wondering when someone from the Bagland duchy would arrive.

Finally, someone spoke up.

However, it was different.

That voice was not the scolding I was used to hearing.

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

“What, what?”

“You are gossiping about Lady Harnier, Master Karssein’s fiancée. I heard it all too!”

-Tiring!

▶A helper has appeared.◀

▶I am a helper on Ruthmeyer’s side!◀

[Target: Kiyan, Melik, Tony]

“It’s being said to our lord’s fiancée, so you won’t hear it?”

“Huh, huh…!”

“You are saying strange things. Are you protecting yourself as your lord?”

“From the lord to the lord…! It’s so disgusting!”

-Tiring!

▶A helper has appeared.◀

▶I am a helper of Shatren’s side!◀

[Target: Dyke, Freakt]

“Our ears are open too, so are we lying too?”

“An insult to the lord’s fiancee is an insult to the lord. Are you going to tell us that our ears are all wrong?”

“These commoners are a group…!”

“Stop talking nonsense! These commoners are telling sophistry that is not worth listening to!”

“Can the common people’s ears hear other voices?”

“Hoo. A commoner’s ear. Then that means our ears are not at fault.”

-Tiring!

▶A helper has appeared.◀

▶We are the helpers of the West!◀

[Target: Marquis Ipheros, Count Lilpeten]

“Well, what is it? What are you, a barbarian…!”

“Strictly speaking, we are also nobles who received a title from the empire. Unlike you guys who are just children of the family.”

“What did the commoner’s ears say earlier? Are you saying you only hear different voices? Do you mean to say that our ears, which are treated as nobles, are also wrong?”

▶Public opinion is shaken by the appearance of helpers!◀

“If that’s the case, isn’t that really gossiping?”

“Sure. You said you insulted your fiancée in front of your audience. If you look at it that way, it doesn’t even seem like a lie.”

“I think so too. I heard that Prince Karssein cares a lot about my fiancee.”

“It’s probably true. Considering that he never left his fiancée on a school trip… I guess he really gossiped about her?”

…I didn’t expect this at all.

Although it is a small minority, there are those who defend me.

Due to those advocates, their solid public opinion was being shaken little by little.

This is probably due to the characteristics of the Yellow Dragon Martial Arts Tournament.

Not only nobles, but also commoners who want to prove their skills attend the competition. So it seems like this is what happened.

‘But, if you’re careful about this, it could have the opposite effect.’

what. Fortunately, it seems like he showed up just in time.

“What’s the fuss?”

…But they said it was random.

Are the three of you coming?

▶Family members who heard the commotion appeared randomly!◀

[Family appearing: Arina, Claire, Flora]

what. it’s okay.

No matter how many people there are, there is only one means for me to take.

Arina is already frowning, but I tell her to think as she pleases.

I decided it was time and went out.

It was the same then, and it was the same this time too.

The other person took steps to frame me.

If so, the method I should take becomes even easier.

“Ah. I got so angry that I took out my hand. I’m sorry.”

“What, what?”

“I’m sorry. I was wrong.”

The other person looked puzzled after hearing that.

“…That’s right. It looks like he wants to admit his mistake and apologize.”

Arina happened to move just as I wanted.

Only then did the other person understand the situation and his lips twitched.

He was beaten for a long time and tried to frame her, but with this apology, everything came to naught.

All my family saw was me apologizing after causing an accident.

Even if Amman caused the problem, he is admitting his fault, so there is no way he would consider that strange.

Even if you realize that my apology here is half-hearted, what can you do?

I also apologized first, but is there any evidence that it wasn’t a sincere apology?

Moreover, if you don’t accept this apology, this will really end up being a ploy to frame you.

In short, we are in a dilemma.

Just once for pretending to apologize.

I’m sure you’ll get scolded. But I got beaten up so bad and couldn’t even get a proper case, so how much of a loss would it be?

‘ruler. ‘What do you want to do now?’

What can you do?

What can I do other than calmly accept the apology and leave?

Now, when he openly laughed at him, the guy gritted his teeth. But there was no reaction of any kind.

“Fuck. You need to get treatment, so just get out of the way!”

The way he walks out in a spirited manner, unable to overcome his frustration, clearly tells us who won and who lost.

“You probably have something to talk about with me. Carcein?”

okay. Well… since something like this happened, we have to fix it.

You will get nagging, but you will be able to get over it. You apologized, right? As for apples.

With that in mind, I tried to follow him into the interrogation room, but Harnier grabbed my hand.

“Thank you. For being angry for me.”

-thank you. For being angry because of me.

really. The result is the same as then.

Well then, should I give you the same answer?

“If something like this happens in the future, let me know. Got it?”

Harnier hesitated for a moment before answering.

Very small.

“Yes.”

Say.

It didn’t feel too bad.

***

For Harnier, the Yellow Dragon Martial Arts Tournament also does not have good memories.

I heard that he was trying to seduce someone.

If I saw someone cheering, even that aroused suspicion.

So I couldn’t do anything. Unlike other noble daughters, she had to show only a dull response. I couldn’t make any profit, let alone invest. During this great opportunity.

That couldn’t have been fun.

Rather, only bad memories remained, and the martial arts competition was always forgotten in her mind.

But today was different.

“…”

There is only one door.

When I think of Karsein beating up a man who gossiped about me, my face keeps turning red. With my heart beating freely, I think this is the time.

This memory…

I didn’t think I would forget it.

-Tiring!
