Chapter Index

    It wasn’t long after he left that I realized why the first prince, who clearly hated me, suddenly became a warm man.

    “It’s probably what the first queen ordered. I guess they told me to win your heart that way. Obvious. I also proposed marriage with you.”

    As soon as I heard the word ‘marriage talk’, I got scared and walked away.

    what? marriage!? Me with a bastard?! Are you crazy! What a nonsense! I’d rather bite my tongue and just walk away. I won’t accept that kind of talk!

    “I declined the offer for fear of misunderstanding. Because little guys like you aren’t my type.”

    “Ah. Is the incompetent prince a similar type of virgin? It seems similar. From being sympathetic to being a jerk to being incompetent. Although this one seems to be less talented.”

    The other side responded in kind to the sarcasm, and Arthur closed his mouth.

    Why is he like that? Normally, this would be the time to throw a tantrum and get irritated.

    ‘ah. Now that you think about it, is this why your grandfather got angry in the middle of the day?’

    Even if Grandpa wasn’t so angry, Benedick would have said no first. Saying a line similar to what my grandfather said just a moment ago.

    ‘But as it turned out, the first prince accepted the marriage talks. ‘I didn’t seem to like that person very much.’

    My grandfather explained that what is important in marriages between nobles is political intent.

    Those born with noble bloodlines are treated solely because they were born as nobles, but there are also things they have to give up in return.

    After learning about the situation, I understood why the first prince approached me while suppressing his feelings. 1If he is dependent on the queen, he has no choice but to accept her will, no matter how he feels.

    ‘What do you mean?’

    ‘uh. So it has to come from that side?’

    ‘no. If it’s the 1st prince, it’s not that strange. It’s hard to give details, but it’s not out of the question.’

    Ordinary humans rebel when something they should have is taken away from them. If what is being taken away is greater, it is normal for the density of resistance to also increase.

    To change the story a little, if a child grows up in an environment so miserable that he cannot learn to rebel, there will be no other way than to be taken away.

    My grandfather seemed puzzled by what I said, but he didn’t bother to question it.

    ‘Is it because of Benedick?’

    Is that why the 1st Prince smiled so disgustingly?

    Are you trying to seduce me like you do with other young ladies?

    Ugh. If this speculation is true, it means that he will continue to try to tempt me.

    In my past life, my wish was to have a job with a woman at least once, but I can’t believe it came true in the opposite way.

    The more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes. It’s so disgusting that I think it would be better to be a stupid fox who is faithful to his desires or a perverted apostle.

    ‘Until then, just watch the 1st prince do his work!?’

    The moment I heard my grandfather’s words, my instinct was to wait.

    The excited tone is incredibly unsettling.

    This is advice from a grandfather who has worked his way up to the end of his political career, so the results will definitely be good, but what happens in the meantime will be very turbulent!

    ‘I’m just saying it won’t harm me.’

    I laughed at his oddly nervous tone and shook my head again.

    ‘are you okay.’

    It’s not that I like the person called Prince 1.

    When I looked at him from outside the monitor, he seemed like a guy who had a lot of useless dialogue and was a hindrance to speedrunning, and now that I’m facing him inside the monitor without knowing his past, I still think of him as an indifferent person.

    I sympathize with his unfortunate past, but that’s just it. I don’t think of them as people who must be saved like Faby or Joy, and I don’t think of them as people who need to be protected like the people around me.

    However, strangely enough, I could not resist the first prince. A subtle itching that was difficult to explain stopped me.

    Perhaps this heart belongs to Lucy, not mine.

    What happened between Lucy and the 1st Prince in the past?

    ‘I’ll listen later when there’s no answer.’

    So let’s postpone listening to Grandpa’s suggestion. I’ll have to stop by the island again to find traces of the hero. It won’t be too late, even after facing Lucy’s past there.

    *

    Even though I tried to organize my mind to some extent, I couldn’t help the rotten expression on my face.

    How can I look good when this guy, who I only dislike rather than like, declared that he was going to seduce me? The only one who can keep a smile in this situation is Fabi.

    “The church you gave us will never allow that single talk!”

    I thought so, but Fabi also got angry, the veins on her neck standing up.

    I tilted my head to the side because it was so uncharacteristic of her, but when I remembered the connection between the church and chastity, I unconsciously came to terms with it.

    don’t worry! Fabi! Because what you’re worried about will never happen! Unless the poor master is doing something strange!

    “So, hero, why did you come here?”

    After the commotion passed, the Fairy Queen summarized the story.

    “The idiot prosecutor did something stupid again and I came to find him.”

    “If you are that person, you are swinging a sword with Yuden-sama in the center of the forest. What is foolish? ”

    “You chewed on what Mr. Brain Muscle Old Man said?”

    “…Brain muscle old man?”

    The Fairy Queen tilted her head as if she didn’t understand what I said at all.

    hmm. Uhmmm. There’s no way I can explain this?

    Fabi. You understand… ah. You didn’t understand at all either. Arthur is also frowning.

    “Ha. it’s okay. No matter how much I say, idiots like you won’t understand, so just follow me.”

    The moment I arrived near where Frey was, following the Fairy Queen’s guidance, a strange feeling passed through the back of my neck.

    This definitely seems like a crisis warning. what? Is there something dangerous in here? The idiot of darkness has already been destroyed a long time ago?

    There won’t be any major problems since the Fairy Queen is next to you. Just as I was raising my guard to the limit, thinking about what might happen, I heard Yuden’s angry voice coming from inside.

    “So! Make some adjustments! If it weren’t for me, this forest would have already been ruined!”

    “Because it’s there, it doesn’t matter, right?”

    “Aaaah! It won’t work. Let’s get it right.”

    “Are you sparring? good! Sounds fun!”

    “…Why aren’t you scared? ”

    As I listened to one person’s breathtaking conversation, the tension that had enveloped my body naturally disappeared.

    Frey, what is that guy doing again? What if Yuden gets really upset?

    ah. If you’re Frey, you’ll probably say that it’s fun even though it’s a joke. Because that guy isn’t usually crazy.

    Out of curiosity, I came out of the bush and was able to see the sword wielded by Frey.

    Her sword cutting through the air cut only a very small space.

    I thought it was strange even to say it myself, but it was true.

    The sword swung behind with great force was aimed at only a small portion of the vast empty space.

    But strangely enough, the phenomenon created by her seemingly small sword strike was by no means small.

    Just as Yuden’s sword cut through the darkness, Frey’s sword flies toward the sky.

    Compared to Yuden’s sword, Frey’s sword is clearly clumsy.

    But for some reason, I had a feeling that the gap would narrow in an instant.

    Because that’s what Frey’s talent is.

    “You again! Don’t let my words sound like my own…!”

    “Lucy? It’s Lucy!”

    Frey, who easily ignored Yuden’s temper, arrived next to me at a slow pace and asked how his sword was and whether it was great.

    So, while holding both cheeks, I told him that it would work for the poor guys, and Frey laughed out loud.

    “What are you here for? Are you here to spar? Let’s spar! I think I can overcome Lucy’s shield this time!”

    “That’s not why I came. You are an idiot with an empty brain.”

    “Huh? Then why did you come?”

    “Why did you ignore the words sent by the brain muscle guy?”

    “Brain muscle disorder? ah! that. What blah god? It got in the way of me swinging the sword, so I put it aside.”

    “God of martial arts!? Has that voice, which is said to only reach warriors with overwhelming talent, reached you?!”

    Arthur was startled by Frey’s calm answer and raised his voice.

    “You ignored the voice that could be said to be the aspiration of all warriors!?”

    “Can’t you do that?”

    “Of course not! What kind of crazy person would ignore the voice of God?”

    “I think Lucy would ignore me sometimes.”

    “…No matter how profane this guy is, he won’t do that!”

    “You can’t say such bad things. Lady Kent. They say you are a noble person.”

    that’s right! Sometimes I feel like I want to ignore it, but I still don’t ignore it!

    If you do that, you never know what kind of retaliation will come! Encouraged by Fabi’s words, I internally retorted and told Frey to have a proper talk.

    “Hmm. If Lucy says so, I get it.”

    As I was looking at Frey, who went to a corner and tilted his head to the right and then to the left repeatedly, as if he was having a conversation with the god of martial arts, the Fairy Queen quietly whispered.

    “Stir. Hero. Is it okay if I join in on the self-conversation that you find so awkward? I really like that love story!”

    “She looks like a chicken house lady who has been scolded, but she just stays still, right? Even if you step in, I think it will just give off a strange smell.”

    “1If it’s about the prince, don’t worry! You know that I have Erginus!”

    Do I look like I care about that? I glared at the Fairy Queen with serious annoyance, and she laughed.

    “It’s a joke. I’ll just prepare the basics. So that it can be fun just in case.”

    “You’re not trying to do something as dirty as the lady, are you?”

    “Of course.”

    I don’t feel like telling you not to do it will leave me alone.

    This lady. Why is a human who is hundreds of years old so cruel?

    I sighed and told her to speak and move, and the Fairy Queen nodded excitedly.

    “I will do my best to ensure that the marriage talks proceed as you wish!”

    “…talking alone?”

    “Talking about getting married? What is that?”

    “Solo talk?”

    Did he hear the voice of the Fairy Queen? Three pairs of eyes focused on me from around me.

    One was Frey. She, who was having a conversation with the god of martial arts, was looking at me with a lot of questions.

    The other was a perverted apostle. Even though he dropped everything he was holding, instead of picking it up, he was busy looking at me with eyes filled with confusion.

    And finally, the goofy fox that had been forced to become my pet hurriedly clung to my face as if its limp appearance was a lie.

    “No! No matter who it is, I will not allow it! Lucy must be mine! Otherwise it might as well be everyone’s!”

    “I agree with that! Youngae’s beauty is something that everyone in this world should share! If it is not held by the Goddess, it cannot be handed to anyone!”

    “If I see it falling into someone else’s hands, I will cut that guy’s head off! Who are you! Whose head should I cut off?”

    “I am the first prince of Soladin. Lina.”

    “Thank you! Fairy Queen! I’m going to attack that guy right now!”

    “Please wait! Lina! I will use the connections I have accumulated so far in the Kingdom of Soladdin to shape public opinion! So, attack after a justification has been established!”

    I ripped the goofy fox off my face and threw it far into the sky, then kicked the perverted apostle in the crotch to silence him.

    ‘…Iknow, right.’
