Chapter 67 – Prince, Do Your Best (2)

The following day, it was hard to prevent myself from remembering yesterday’s events as much as possible.

However, when I occasionally end up accidentally remembering, my surroundings would tilt their heads in confusion from my blus.h.i.+ng.

Haa… What sort of face should I make when I meet her today…

Her face appears in my mind.

Her perfectly round, large, and slightly alluring black eyes. Her thin, yet emphasized eyebrows. Her small nose and cute lips. The well placed parts of her small face, which blooms like a flower when she smiles at me.1

Supported by her slender neck, and her small shoulders which seems like it could be broken with an embrace.

Underneath that is her modest chest emphasising its smallness, on the left and right of its centre…

ku, what am I thinking about!?

I shook my head side to side and erased the picture from my mind.

「Haa…」

I let out a sigh for the however many Nth time today.

At this rate, aren’t I just like a boy who’s inexperienced with girls…

I devoted myself to working in order to completely forget about it.

 

 

 

「……Prince, welcome.」

「…Aah.」

But time pa.s.sed by on its own accord.

The time for dinner arrive.

I entered her house while feeling awkward.

I had the opinion that I shouldn’t have come if it was awkward, but that option couldn’t be chosen. Because without this, our interactions are equal to almost none.

Only the clanking sounds of tableware could be heard.

Unable to bear that atmosphere, I somehow opened my mouth.

「……Mother and Aria said they wanted to see you, you know. Aah, Chiffon as well na.」

To chose this topic from all the ones I could’ve chosen…

I restrained myself from nearly prostrating and continued eating.

「The Queen-sama and them? However, I shouldn’t be able to meet royalty that easily, right? Aah, could you tell Chiffon-san to please drop by again?」

Sakura gave a normal response. With this, the conversation has somehow continued.

「Aah, I’ll convey that to Chiffon. Well, she’s busy after all na. But saying you shouldn’t meet royalty that easily, don’t you meet with me?」

「The Prince is different you know.」

Mu, so does that mean I’m special?

My heart boils with excitement from thinking that. Could Sakura also think that I’m special?

「After all, doesn’t the Prince meet me on your own accord? Visiting the royalty’s side from my side isn’t very reasonable you know.」

……So it’s like that huh. I’m an idiot for being pleased for even a moment.

「It’s not that much of a big deal though. Since this time, mother’s side wants to meet you…」2

「Even so. Rather, the royalty of this country should maintain more of their dignity.」

「……Do you think, it’s undignified?」3!

「At the very least, they wouldn’t eat dinner here ne.」

「……I see.」

With that, the conversation ended.

However, the awkwardness like yesterday has disappeared…… I think.

Let’s leave it at this for today. Victory or defeat will be decided tomorrow.

 

 

「Prince, welcome.」

「Aah, I’ll be relying on you for today as well.」

Compared to yesterday, t
here wasn’t any awkwardness when we met

……Alright, I might be able to proceed today.

 

 

I was thinking of ways to bring up a conversation while eating dinner.

But it came from the other side just at that time.

「Prince, what’s the matter? You’ve been restless since a little while ago, but… Was it not delicious?」

A conversation was started from Sakura’s side. A chance! (CHANSU DA!)

「No, it’s nothing. Your cooking is delicious as usual you know. I just remembered a little something.」

Sakura looked at me puzzlingly.

「I said it yesterday as well, right? Mother and them said they wanted to see you. I was thinking, ‘if it’s difficult to meet because they’re royalty then’, uh, ‘if you also became royalty, it would be easy to meet them, wouldn’t it?’…」4

「Ha?」

Bewilderment appeared on Sakura’s face.

Alright, I’ll keep at it and say it!

「Well, mother said it. ‘I want Sakura as my daughter’, she said. If Sakura became my mother’s daughter, wouldn’t you not have to worry about things like royalty?」

The degree of bewilderment on Sakura’s face increased. It seems she’s unable to guess my intention.

「That’s… I’ll become the Queen-sama’s adopted child, is what that means?」

「It’s slightly different but…… the result would be that you would become my mother’s daughter, I guess?」

「……Certainly, I don’t have any family in this world, but… Even so, to become the royalty’s adopted child is…」

Mu, being like this, it wasn’t conveyed successfully huh.

「No, just becoming an adopted child isn’t a way to become royalty though… For example, uh…… you could say even getting married would make you a daughter, right? Hasn’t Sakura thought of something like marriage? Speaking of 15, that’s an age where it’s possible for marriage as well, right?」

「Marriage, is it? ……I haven’t thought about that either ne. Look, don’t I have this sort of appearance? I think I lack the charm of a woman you know ne. I think something like marriage is impossible for me who’s like this. Besides, I’m doing my best to live right now after all. Aah, I also have this child ne.」

Saying that, she looked at the cat by her feet.

「There’s no such thing, you know? I think…… uh, Sakura is cute, I believe you can get married you know?」

I stretched out my hand and placed it on top of Sakura’s hand and continued speaking.

Sakura reacted with a twitch for an instant, but didn’t say anything.

「Besides…… you’ll get married sooner or later, right? Since that’s the case, wouldn’t it be fine if it’s slightly earlier? Furthermore, being married would also bring stability to your life… Therefore, like with me, how aboutー「Nya~」」

A cry echoed out as if it was trying to interrupt my final words.

「Ara? Aah!? Geez, to be this dirty… Aah, these won’t come off if you don’t take a bath huh?」

「Ni~」

Her hand slipped through my hand and began taking care of the cat by her feet.

「Ah, sorry. what did you say earlier?」

「……No, it wasn’t important so don’t worry about it.」

「Is that so? But…… I still haven’t thought about marriage yet. It’s still a bit further in the future before I would think of those sorts of things ne.」

She continued to take care of the cat after saying that.

 

 

I looked up at the sky on the way back to the castle.

The night road was illuminated by the moon.

「I did my best na…」

My monologue vanished off into the sky.

I let out a large sigh and proceeded towards the castle.

 

 

 

「Sedrim, how was it?」

The following day, when the promised three days had pa.s.sed, mother brought along Aria and Chiffon and turned up at my office.

「Mother…」

「Judging from that appearance, there doesn’t seem to be any progress, am I right?」

I was left with nothing to say from those straightforward words.

If I were to make an excuse, I think I really did my best.

「As expected, it’s impossible for oni-sama to do it within three days wa ne.」

「Did we not understand that from the beginning? We must work out a different strategy here.」

「That’s right ne. I wonder that sort of plan would be good next?」

「To have His Highness use it…… as expected, would it not have a high chance of failure?」

「That’s right wa ne… Mother, Chiffon. We will work out a new strategy once we return to our room okay.」

I saw off the three people who left like a storm after they said what they wanted to say.

「……Perhaps, I’m just being played?」

Realizing the truth and thinking about the 「new strategy」 the three people said earlier which will befall me, I let out a sigh.

「Haa~… I’m begging you, please leave me alone…」

 

author’s note

Because I was told the Prince gave something like a gross or perverted impression, I thought to back up the Prince so I wrote this, but…
Oh? I feel his evaluation has become even worse.
In the end, the Prince did his best, right?
