Let’s Go To The Castle To Meet The Owner

 

The next day, the handsome white knight, while smiling, was talking nonsense.

As handsome as he is, it is wasted on him, but at the same time this handsomeness suited the white knight!

In order for me to blend back in the background, can you please just return to the castle already.

“Do you mind the subject of marriage?”

“….huh?”

 

I, who hadn’t faulted on my part, asked again with a sense of distrust.

Well, can someone explain this to me please?

But for now.

 

“I’ll refuse. ♪”

 

My intention is clear.

….So release your hold on me, and stop staring like that at me, it’s annoying.

That’s why I admire people who can escape reality.

No, no, would it be strange?

Worrying about him was yesterday’s news, but I can’t just ignore the flag now.

Is this for a mission? This is tough.

I’m only here for this one though, this one person.

Sensei, who I turned to when I abandoned Al’s explanation, was even worse at explaining the situation to me.

The emotion didn’t come even when I break it down.

 

–         Argento is someone who had the tendency to ‘feel joy when being harmed while fighting a person stronger than himself’

–         And yesterday’s event was sure to convince him that I was the ideal woman for him (= sacrifice).

–         Sinking that one blow caused applause and great excitement. A bride to be ♪

–         The sacrifice, Sensei’s condolences.

……………….

……………….

You’re kidding, right? A love flag came up from that?! FROM THAT?!

Where did those steady, foreseeable events go?! Did this strike after the love event rocket to MAX?! Hey, this is too much development after a single meeting.

Ahh…my insight about Otome game is unreliable…………!!!

It was so obvious why, he’s a real person.

I also didn’t think a handsome guy even existed in this kind of setting.

Are all the white knights the same kind, having a good face but really just a disappointment like him!

Ha-ha……I will run away.

Yes, I’ll do that. All right, anywhere else seems better than here.

 

“Trying to escape?”

“Please don’t read my mind.”

“This is the first time he yearns for someone even if he has been yearned for himself. He would never give up once he found something he wanted.”

 

Extremely — that would be so. I don’t have a moe face, personality, or status, only cruelty and violence. At a proper glance sort of saying that the heaven bestow two as well as three of the things, I would have been popular. But I generally still do well in the world minus the disappointing part.

As abnormal as I am, I hated the ending of being transformed into a wife, so I won’t give up either.

 

“Hey…come over here a little.”

 

Oh, there are some knights beckoning me. It’s those guys over there.

I crept closer to the side with a serious face.

If I say so myself, they had a complete feature, too, moreover they look really similar to each other.

One of them soon forms a frown and answers me.

 

“We are twins. We came from two different eggs but are not like one another.”

“You were lumped together when you were born…….”

“Do not say lumped together! Is it fun to torment and bully another?!”

“Right now, I feel at ease with this normal reaction.”

“…….Oh, that kind of thing.”

 

Good, these knights are normal. If all the knights were like Al, I will seriously cry.

Well, shall I get to the main point?

 

“He is the third son of the duke, influential in various places and had people with connections at hand. So it’s better to forget about running away.”

“What? Do you think status and power is an obstacle? What if I flee overseas…..”

“Not without a passport. Can you even cross the border? …..I think issuing a passport for you would be hopeless.”

 

It’s not because it’s a different world that I can’t have a passport, rather, it’s because of the pressure from the top, big brother,  that I can’t have one…..!

Hah, if I don’t accept it, I’ll become the enemy? I’d rather die.

If nothing is done, my job will be ‘the third son of a duke’s fiance.’

I’m a mage. A person who has no interest in a position or fame!

 

“…..There may be way to settle this gently.”

“Oh! Sensei please says it quickly.”

“It will also be difficult. I can have Erushuon, his highness, persuade him directly.”

 

*Vvvsssshhhhhhh!*

The knights quickly moves backward. Oh, what with this reaction. Afraid?

 

“It’s impossible! Absolutely impossible! Stop, it better to run away!”

“Once mentioned, the prince’s true character will come out. Do not make a dangerous bet!”

“Eh~….isn’t that condition expected when one is growing up?”

 

Sensei who seemed to have understood the circumstances in the knights’ teary eyes.

Oh, I’m the odd one out.

 

“This person full of patriotism is very smart…but, he can sometime be cruel and heartless.”

 

Sensei said with difficulty, carefully choosing his words. So are you trying to sweeten your words?

 

“There is a possibility that it’ll move to a reward for the prince himself instead since it is the prince’s white knight. As in, the prince might as what’s in it for him to help you.”

“A reward?”

“So a person who an expert at money can be a good guardian when he recognizes there is value in something.”

 

I see. If it under the highness’s protection, I can be safe, right?

Judging how scared the knights are, there is hardly a person who would oppose him.

I’m intrigued on what he had done…it couldn’t be just brute-force.

 

“Argento is a childhood friend, but I’m not the type who favors personal feeling. So I will mention this once, that I will keep the promise.”

 

Somehow I felt a harsh condition was announced, but it is more secure than running away.

The person whom I met may be good in the future.

 

“I see. We’ll rely on you.”

“Is that so, I said-”   “Then it’s decided! Amazing!”

 

The voice which bounces interrupted Sensei’s words and the back of my arm suddenly twitched.

When that happens it was conditioned reflex of course…..

 

“Do not come closer to me, do you understand!”

 

*Stomp*! That was the momentum sound made when hitting Al’s abdomen. It was an act of self-defense; I’m not the bad guy here!

…….But,

Far from suffering, I realized my mistake when I saw his joyful expression.

Ah, crap! He is pleased with this!

Besides the conditioned reflex and no magic, was this going to be reported?!

 

“…..…as expected….that’s good….!”

 

‘What in the, what’

This no doubt was in everyone’s head. It was a normal reaction.

…Hey? I didn’t even snap my finger, let alone chant using magic.

That’s a relief ♪ That way nobody would noticed.

….Not.

Holy Jesus! Did his favorably just rise?!

I just made him very ecstatic by myself! Having a habit of using my instinct, I became stupid!

I need to learn to win over my conditioned reflex!

So……….so, where was my rival when necessary? The huge amount of ladies with whom yesterday was fascinated with him, why aren’t they here?

Come on, Ladies! Now’s your chance! You can raise your favor-ability if you put salt on the wound!

Ah, it’s impossible if I don’t do that myself huh. Tch!

 

“Ah~ …..Are you now ready to go to the castle?”

 

*pat*

Sensei said putting his hand on my shoulder.

Well, I think that’s the most important thing at the moment. Let’s ignore that ‘creature’ who is rolling around.

And you two knights who is staring at me with indifferent eye, stop it.
