“Master, there’s a letter from the royal palace.”
While I was attempting some divination with my female friends (provisional) that also didn’t get along with Hendra and were bullying her with me, Maru brought a letter to me.
“Ahh, Rosewood. Could it be from His Highness Heathcliff by any chance?”
“No, it seems to be from the crown prince instead. Aren’t you being a little rude?”
“Mmm, then we might not be able to continue with the divination……”
“Something seems to stink……”
The girls seemed to be making a fuss about something, but quieted down when the letter was about to be read. – Since it’s too troublesome, I’ll have Riley read it. In the first place, that crown prince, sending me a letter like this, how rude. Although the crown prince had some looks going for him, he wasn’t beautiful enough to be in my collection. Because of this, I had no special interest in the crown prince at all, and sending a letter to such a beautiful girl as myself when I already have a fiance is just outrageous.
“Ojou-sama, please calm down.”
“What’s the matter, Riley?”
“It seems that there shall be an evening party at the royal palace tonight.”
An evening party?
At the royal palace?
– What’s more, tonight.
“WHAAAAAAT? I heard nothing of this!”
Heath you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you’ve finally left your fiance alone! What’s more, I’m quite troubled about this evening party at the royal palace.
I have…… no newly made dresses at all!
I felt something called orz. What humiliation!
“Master! Please call me Maru like you always do!”
“What’s with this so suddenly? Maru.”
“Please!”
“Is that so? Mm, mmm. – Maru!”
“Yes! It’s a fluffy pearl white dress that gives off a wintry feel! Of course, it’s of the highest cla.s.s!”
Maru brought out from behind him a lovely dress made with a sewing technique that I’ve never seen before. Oh? That’s quite the nice hobby. It’s great sense how the jewels on the waist match my eye color in order to accent it.
“Maru!”
“Yes! I also offer you an ice crystal pendant, a mini hat, and shoes to go along with this dress!”
“Ice crystal…… The one that I got from Heath?”
“Yes! It was a shape fitting to be worn, so I made it into a pendant!”
“However, I’m a bit worried about why you prepared these items ahead of time……”
“If it’s for master, Maru can even transcend time and s.p.a.ce for his idol!”
Maru seems to be quite capable. To begin with, it’s almost as if he’s familiar with the menu of Starbucks from beyond time and s.p.a.ce. He definitely must have extra-dimensional abilities. As expected, the king must be head over heels in love with me! Since he gifted me with such a convenient child. About the existence of Maru, I’ll leave him alone since I hate thinking.
Now, I’m well-equipped to go to the party. Shall I go alone?
However, why did the crown prince do this so suddenly?
The girls that were muttering incoherently under their breaths for some reason returned to their homes, and I began my preparations for tonight’s party. As expected, the clothes that Maru prepared for me really fit me. Since everything was on such short notice, I’m rather angry about it, but well, I guess there’s just no helping it this one time.
While being fascinated by the beautiful girl I saw in front of me in the mirror while making my preparations, a horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of my mansion. Hmm? Who could that be?
“Hey, I’ve come to pick you up. Rose.”
The one who had come to pick me up was Heath. His expression wasn’t mask-like as usual. He was smiling childishly.
“……Am I to be partic.i.p.ating together with Your Highness?”
“You don’t like it?”
“It’s fine, since you’re my fiance.”
Heath held my hand and helped me into the horse-drawn carriage. During the entire carriage ride, Heath wouldn’t let go of my hand.
“Your Highness, your hand……”
“It’s Heath. Rose?”
“Heath……”
While he gripped my hand so tightly, I spoke to that face. That face that looked so similar to the Hero……
Is this face going to fight with me again, I wonder. Brandis.h.i.+ng his sense of justice, condemning me for my evils again, I wonder. He had been such a wonderful man. So courageous. A true hero.
This person before me knows nothing about everything that happened to me in my previous life. He’s just a boy that looks similar on the outside. Even so, I can’t help my wishful thinking about him.
In this world though, I won’t be defeated. I definitely won’t lose, Hero.
