The reputation of Prince Arnold is high.

The grade is always the best. Magic is not as powerful as it is, but it is still an excellent class and, above all, has the sword talent to make up for it. As a user of the magic sword "Fire Sword" that combines swords and magic, he is already one of the top players in the kingdom at this age.

Above all, the dignity worn by Prince Arnold was worthy of the next king and, on the contrary, would be a great prince who would make a name in history.

Prince Arnold is the highest ranking character in the capture character. Not surprisingly, all cannot be perfect as long as they are living. Prince Arnold, of course, has its drawbacks.

More of a complex than a drawback. And it was exactly the same as Vincent had.

The resentment of seeing himself as an excellent prince, in a sense, only with prejudice.

Prince Arnold has been working hard since childhood to be worthy of the next king. Prince Arnold believes that, despite its worth, there is no one who acknowledges the effort.

Everyone praise their excellence. As expected it is the next king. No, it's not an excellent king because he's the next king. That's because I have worked hard for that. In this way Prince Arnold thought every time he was praised. It was a twisted way of thinking, but the pressure of the next king was so heavy on Prince Arnold that he could twist.

This stack eventually planted distrust in the surroundings of Prince Arnold and began to take a blatantly cold attitude toward those who praised themselves for letting go.

It was ironic that such a non-childhood attitude was perceived as dignified and further enhanced the evaluation of the surroundings, and for Prince Arnold it became increasingly frustrating.

The surroundings praise you, who plays the excellent prince, not your true self. One day, an exception appeared before me who had been thinking so. That was Maria.

Lancelot was one of Prince Arnold's competitors until then. Lancelot is a good match for Prince Arnold's rival in terms of his status, age and ability. They acknowledge each other and allow them to call each other. Even at Lancelot, he never regretted losing to him, only to praise Arnold.

But Maria was different. I declare stately that I will never lose, and always challenge myself seriously to actually win. When she was in contact with Maria, Prince Lloyd of Arnold secretly fell down, knowing that Lancelot was not seriously facing her.

But more than that, the joy of having met the true rival, Maria, is greater for Prince Arnold, and the days of competing with Maria are more fun, and my feelings of depression are gradually diminishing. I was

The denial of the surroundings, and the feeling of being drawn back inside gradually turned outward. And I realized that I was also looking at my surroundings with prejudice. Prince Arnold realized that he was angry at himself, arbitrarily deciding the thoughts of others. And I remembered a girl who might have hurt me.

My fiancé, Eriel Woodville.

He met Aeriel before making a formal engagement. We know each other will be engaged in the future, it's the first show. Airiel's impression was terrible. Even though it was his first meeting, she was trying to take care of herself, and she was spreading charmingly around her. Already a fiancée, let alone a crown princess. That's how Prince Arnold felt.

The worst thing for Prince Arnold at the time was the tired look of Aeriel, who showed him at an unexpected moment. Prince Arnold now realizes that the attitude he is showing is not a true form of Aeriel, but a creation.

At that moment, among the Prince of Arnold, Aeriel was recognized as unacceptable, and since then he has not tried to meet anyone, even with the suggestions of others.

Perhaps such feelings of oneself were transmitted to the other party. When she enters the institution, Eriel shows only the minimum courtesy as a fiancee and does not seek any further involvement. Even though I sometimes speak, in such cases I always show behavior that is frustrating for me.

Apart from that, it didn't matter. Aeriel, who met after a long time, was surprisingly beautiful and grew up, but the attitude was that of a noble lady who was not acceptable to Prince Arnold.

But now Prince Arnold thinks. The attitude of Eriel who he hated might be the same as the one he was showing around. I wonder if myself, who played the excellent prince, could blame Airiel, who played the future queen candidate.

Today, Prince Arnold has seen it. Eriel's radiant smile removes the mask of the Marquis' daughter.

And Prince Arnold thought. I want you to point that smile at yourself. That smile should be directed to my fiancee.

◇◇◇

From the perspective of Rion, Maria was thought to be on track, but she was quite impatient.

One of the reasons is Prince Arnold. According to the strategy, the distance has definitely been reduced. I have that feeling, but I can't cross the last line. It does not mean a physical relationship. The capture of Prince Arnold will only be successful if his engagement with Eriel is broken. To get there, you must hear from Prince Arnold's mouth that he wishes to break his engagement.

Upon hearing the words, Maria confessed the many oppressions she had suffered so far, hinting at the possibility that Aeriel could be behind him, and the angry Prince Arnold cooperated with everyone, They move to get evidence of wrongdoing.

Despite this scenario, Prince Arnold's mouth never emits a word that tells him that his engagement has been broken. Then she cannot confess that Maria is also being bullied. Doing so, Maria knows that Eriel will be severely reprimanded and bullying will stop, but will not lead to her engagement being broken.

The teller is not the main character. Marriage to a woman like Aeriel is a strange setting that refuses the hero to confess her feelings that she will not benefit Prince Arnold.

(You have to show more of that woman's disgusting place.)

Maria knows why Prince Arnold's strategy does not go as expected. Aeriel does not try to approach Prince Arnold for some reason.

There are many scenes in the game where Prince Arnold is uncomfortable with Airiel, who is clinging together, but the two people in this world rarely meet, and even if they meet, they just exchange a simple greeting and break up .

This doesn't get along, but it doesn't get any worse. Not what Maria wants.

(Maybe it failed. The setting may have been blurred due to the hidden character.)

Maria suspected that Leon was the cause of this situation. I did not notice Rion's identity. He doubts the relationship between Rion and Aeriel.

Maria, who was observing Leon as a capture target, does not seem to be a master-servant relationship between them. Even if you are not observing carefully, anyone who thinks they have a conversation can think so.

The belief that no marriage between the daughter of the Marquis and his servant will create a romantic relationship and the insensitivity of the two of them to unaware of each other's feelings are simply not letting others know.

It is different from the ordinary students who have increased contact with the two. Even if you realize, you just close your mouth because you know it's an unacceptable relationship.

This has nothing to do with Maria.

What Maria is worried about is that if their relationship is a romantic relationship, it's probably their cause.

From the perspective of Maria, Lion is the most difficult rare character among capture characters. In such a lion, of course, there is a rival character. Maria thinks that it is Eriel.

By targeting Rion, Aeriel, who was originally a rival character in capturing Prince Arnold, has been replaced by a rival character. Naturally, this is Maria's selfish belief.

However, what seems to Maria, the main character of this world, leads to Leon's misfortune.

(That's why Arnold and Rion couldn't capture at the same time.)

Maria's assumptions led to this conclusion. And this conclusion gives rise to the next decision of Mary.

(It's a rare character. I want to capture it somehow, but if it fails, there will be no replay. Then it will be)

Maria chooses Prince Arnold. Waiting for the capture of Prince Arnold is the throne of the Grand Flam Kingdom. This is the best goal compared to any other target.

Maria doesn't think that once the game's story ends, you can return to the original world. If so, Maria wouldn't have an adventure after the capture, choosing Rion who didn't know what goal was waiting.

(I have to restore the settings, but ... To do that ... It's a pity, but I have to be gone. There are some good events.)

Maria thought of a way to return Aeriel to a rival character in the capture of Prince Arnold by eliminating Lion from being targeted. It was to remove Rion, a hidden character, from the story.

Despite his pity, Maria doesn't feel so guilty. For Maria, all the people in this world are characters in the game.

◇◇◇

Not everyone around you is in favor of Mary. On the contrary, at least one person has a dissatisfaction.

This is Charlotte Lanchester of the Marquis of Fatiras.

Charlotte doesn't complain about Maria explicitly because Prince Arnold has acknowledged it. That would again exacerbate Charlotte's dissatisfaction with Mary, but I can't say anything to Prince Arnold.

Charlotte's frustration turns to Lancelot, who attracted the Maria.

"Hey, what are you going to do?"

"What do you do?"

"Maria"

"No, I don't know. What happened to Maria?"

"How about ... Are Lancelots good? て い る Are you approaching Arnold just recently?"

Maria's thriving approach to Prince Arnold is due to her lack of success, but Charlotte has no way of knowing it, for whatever reason. For whatever reason, she doesn't like Maria approaching Prince Arnold.

"Is that unavoidable? Arnold is a good man even if I look at him. Not only in appearance, but also in various aspects."

"You had a favor with Maria."

Lancelot's reaction was surprising to Charlotte.

"I have a favor. That's why I'm not a small man enough to bind me."

"Is it okay for Mary to be another man?"

"It's a problem, but it can't be."

"why?"

Charlotte doesn't know why Lancelot is so confident. That is not all. According to Charlotte, Maria is a nymph who tries to attract a man at random. Of course, Charlotte, the aristocratic daughter, never talks about such a shameful thing, but she thinks in her mind.

Why can you forgive it? Charlotte couldn't understand whether she would be favored by such a woman.

"Arnold is the Prince, not Maria's next door."

"That's right."

"Then, when it comes to other men, there is no one to compare with, even more than me. In the end, Maria will choose me."

"……so"

For the first time, Charlotte knew that Lancelot was stupid. I did not notice this overconfidence because Prince Arnold was always next to me. In front of Prince Arnold, Lancelot becomes humble.

"I was the one who made Maria the first place, and she is always grateful that she is myself now."

From another point of view, this is also one form of the platform character. Maria was able to use Lancelot to get into the circle of her noble children. I had the opportunity to approach Prince Arnold.

"Thank you and love are different."

"... What does Charlotte want to say? Isn't it irrelevant to Maria and I?"

Sure, Maria and Lancelot have nothing to do with Charlotte. Charlotte's hope is that everyone should be fine and put a rein on Maria so he doesn't go any further.

"Some people don't like her behavior very well."

This is the result of saying it very far.

"Oh, that's in my ears."

"eh?"

"It's Wincheal's cheeky sister, right?"

"... Aeriel"

"Yes, he seems to be harassing behind the scenes because she doesn't like getting closer to Arnold."

"She's a fiance. Isn't that natural?"

"Does Charlotte protect that woman?"

"Rather than sheltering her, she's telling Arnold, who has a fiancee, that it's strange that a woman approaches."

"That's right ... but I don't like this insidious way."

"That's the same for me"

"That puss is not worthy of Arnold. I want to expose her evil and somehow bring her to engagement."

"Elimination of engagement ..."

Charlotte is surprised at Lancelot who is thinking so far. It is the Prince's engagement. It is already about the politics of the country. No matter how many Hou people, Lancelot, a student, doesn't do this.

"Naturally, if you were to be Arnold's wife, you would be a future queen. Can a sneaking and evil woman be a queen?"

"Yes, that's right, but can you get rid of your engagement?"

"When things go public, your Majesty cannot ignore it, because it is a problem for the royal family that the future queen be despised by the aristocracy."

"surely……"

"That's why we need to get a certain amount of evidence. Maybe. "

"... Yes, I understand.

"ask"

This world is tough for villains. Even if you aren't really a bad guy, you're going to be persecuted by the world just because you play a role.

On the other hand, the world is kind to the hero. Whatever it does is wrong, the world tries to forgive it. This world is such a world.

Lion is trying to resist this world. No matter how reckless it is.
