Drop!! ～A Tale of the Fragrance Princess～ (WN)

I had to take a deliberate sigh of relief at Jill as she stared until Dili returned to the venue.

I don't think this is exactly the time to find out, but when you come with this prince, you've begun to show grandeur and patience, and the key part is still hectic.

"Hey, I told you to come in Sylvester if you were coming, didn't I?

That's why I didn't do the magic of change on Jill today either.

Well, it wasn't even the right time to change Sylvester to Jill for me to go to the Pameladia house, so it was impossible to call today unless I could.

But that was just an excuse in a way. One way or another, he kept it close to Dilly as a silvester, in the sense of making a breakthrough. So even if it's not a matter of time, I can tell you I didn't do the magic of change to Jill. I told Dili I was going to stop being a delivery guy, but I think it's time for this guy to move forward or give up if he can't.

But even when I was thinking so much, the brunette prince, who still prefers to collect mysterious faces, was turning away from me with his face hidden in a mask. The prince, who still uses a pretty rare mask today, is probably the country's biggest covert executor now.

For once, they didn't say what I said. To be perfectly honest, it seems to be really Jill, but that attitude made me unnecessarily frightened.

"You can't just not let even the gatekeeper through here, so you can do a grand 'courtesy of Master Sylvester' instead of Jill. Tonight is just a greeting, so to speak. Dili and I already know each other, and she's my mentor's daughter. I would have done enough to greet you lightly with patience and go home."

"You have no choice."

"What is it?"

"... because I'm not invited. I thought it might give the Count a bad impression."

"Oh......"

I don't know that. I don't even feel like it.

"For once, I told the Count the words of the celebration. You didn't even ask me to flatter you."

"You, you think that Count will flatter you"

"I don't think so, but if you'd told me, I'd have gone. But I'm glad you didn't invite me."

"Why not?"

I guess you're willing to say you're not ready.

"If I make an appearance, I might take away the impact of Dili's stage. After all, Dili is the star today. Not when I can get in the way."

"... I hope that's not a hectic excuse."

It's what I say in such a calm voice that I couldn't go any further into it either.

Well, do you want to break it for today? Anyway, the timing of appearing as Sylvester has already been lost today.

But Jill didn't change the subject when he said it was his chance.

"Vernault's pretty tough after all."

"You're sweet enough. If you were already engaged, I'd have danced with you here."

"... I'm telling you right now"

"You're the one who made me say it."

With that said, Jill shrugged her shoulders.

"I'm not hating you in the first place, I'm just thankful. Vernor thinks he's really like a brother."

"You don't have to thank me, move on"

"Yeah. But I'll get right close. Maybe you can get away with the pattern you've been in."

In a rare, positive word, I looked straight at Jill.

I can't see your face because it's a mask, but it doesn't just look like your mouth.

I couldn't even see the usual 'what am I going to do' and how it bothered me now.

"What's going on, today? You're so grand."

"Do you like it a little?

"If it weren't for the mask...... don't be coy"

After all, there's odd room.

What, thinking, Jill flipped his body around and showed me his back.

"It would also help dispel rumors that Dillie wants to avoid me by showing me around. If it's for Dili, I won't hesitate."

"You're probably positive. But in the end, it's a prerequisite for avoidance."

"Well, at first. But I don't think it would help if you broke it gradually, and I'm a little jealous right now, so I'm thinking of talking to you extra."

"What? Jealousy?

Who the hell are you jealous of, and if I frowned, Jill looked back and stabbed me in the finger.

"Am I the jealous target?

"Yeah. Well, I've always envied you, but when I watched you two interact in person, I wanted to be told in Sylvester that it was good to see you, too, and I thought to myself,"

"... you, were you listening from there? Listen to me. You're behaving badly."

But it's a good thing it's on fire.

I've been enjoying watching you, but come on, even time limits are approaching.

"Hang in there. It's not just you, it's Dili, but the Countess, who's a matchmaker, because there's so much talk. Even so, I'm more worried that you'll be matched with another young lady first, because nothing will move quickly to find out from that Count's cuteness."

"I know."

"But you, you're a prince, and you've grown up without someone."

Jill's search for someone had been going on since she was a little girl.

A tea party for children hosted by the queen is one of its finest. Well, I would have been happy as Jill if Dilly had come there, and I guess we'd have moved on a lot quicker.

It's just, since when is that gone?

As I got older, I got less frequent, but I felt like it was happening once a season or so.

"... in fact, it is scattered on my mother"

"What?"

"I'm not talking about Dili. But I know there's a warrant for you to interact with. I guess I was about twelve. By choosing a note, I was noticed."

Is it something that can be trivial?

Perhaps the observational eye of a woman is sharper than I think.

"Fortunately, I didn't tell your father."

"Are you lucky?

"Wouldn't it be nice if they made fun of me? Vernault would understand."

"... oh yeah"

I don't think my father will ever make fun of me. It's just going to be worse in nature than that. It's not hard to imagine being asked the root dust leaf dust as a delight, just in case the story of the erotic shakedown gets into your father's ear. Finally, I can predict from there to the point where I will be hot valve again the story of my parents' encounter, which was heard scattered.

Exactly. I don't think His Majesty will get this hot, but when it comes to uncomfortable, maybe what neither I nor Jill feel is very different.

But whatever caused it, it was above all your determination to treat Dili as a Sylvester. I think it's a big step forward.

Sometimes I just get hooked on one thing. Jill now used the word 'jealousy'. That means you're not calm.

That's why perhaps the question of when Jill and Sylvester tell each other that they are the same person is creeping out of their minds rather than how Jill is now...

It's always this when it comes to Dili, even though he's not usually the kind of guy with a gap.

"Still, I took your word for it."

"Huh?"

"Solo."

But, well, there's just one thing I need to tell you first.

"You, just stop hitting and crushing it."

"Huh?"

"Don't crush it, I mean grab it right happy. Don't even think about it from the beginning."

Seeing the movement stopped in those words made it easy to imagine what the face looked like under the mask.

"Hold on, brother"

"Oh, am I my brother?

"Oh, so you meant to be my brother!?"

"'Cause Vernault is a bad behavior."

"I'm a heck of a bitch. The one doesn't say brother. Never."

Well, I thought making the most concessions would be twins... but I wouldn't be able to help myself with a parallel line argument here.

"Yes, just in case, Jill didn't know Miss Clyde yet, did she?

"No, I do."

"Really... what? When?"

Jill laughed bitterly at me when I was surprised she'd never heard of it.

"I met her” by accident ”yesterday when she came to deliver the forgotten items to her father in the castle. In the corridor on the way to work with Count Pameladia, with Count Clyde Rayne talking to her."

I thought you were ambushed.

The place Jill uses to rendezvous with Count Pameladia is not a forbidden area for ordinary people to enter, but it is also not the kind of place where they would normally have errands. However, if Miss Clyde Raine was not alone and the Count was with her, though the Count might have been trying to get Jill to date her there. If you are Count Clyde Raine, you know the directions.

Well, if that's what they call a "girl of dreams," I found out with that power... maybe something.

But I'm not the only one who thought that, and Jill would be laughing the same way.

"So, how was your impression?

"He's a very cute looking kid. He is polite in his language and has a beautiful voice. I was a little surprised because I had the impression that it didn't look like a rumor"

"Different?

"Yeah. If you just want to talk, you can call me normal. I'm a ranged lady. I never even talked about my dreams."

I frowned at the words.

Miss Hazel, who told me what was going on, wouldn't be lying. Even if she's lying, she won't get it, and that grandiose character she prefers to compete with. Besides, Clay was angry two years ago because of what she said and did. Even though I've been educated in the last two years and my mood has changed... I feel so strange.

"It just seemed a little strange."

"In what way?

"I wasn't talking to you that long, but I was surprised to see you round your eyes at my very general reaction. And then I got a non-meshing response, like I was supposed to get a different answer."

"... that's strange or a lot weird. You don't mind putting me in the category that I could normally talk to?

To my inquiry, Jill didn't affirm or deny just laughing.

But what the hell are you thinking, young lady?

I guess we'll be face-to-face at some nightclub anyway, but if we can, I don't want to come across either... but maybe we should keep in touch somewhere once.

Because if you don't, you won't even be able to help these childhood tamers when they're in trouble.
