Hated Young Lady Accepts Her Fate

"Are you sure you're okay, Amelia?

"... yeah, I'm fine. Looks like you got a little tired from moving the carriage."

I make an unmistakable excuse for Will to peek into my face anxiously and steal a brother asking this one behind his back. I guess my brother on the top of the Buddha somewhere doesn't really think me and Will are getting along as well as ever.

I think a little and then I turn to Will again.

"Hey Will, have you said hello to Alex yet?

"Oh, me and Scott already blessed Alexander."

"Well, that would have been just great!

I grin at Will as I join hands with the bread.

"Just for a second, so why don't you stay with your brother?

"What?"

"Huh?"

To my words, my brother and Will looked surprised and stiffened.

Instead of those two, Scott, who had grown up next to Will until then, tilts his neck.

"Uh... what's this all about? Amelia."

"'Cause it's a celebration of Alex, isn't it? If you have a brother, you won't be satisfied with the conversation."

I did not take the confusion of my surroundings as a thing, and I continued not to break my usual attitude such as being my self.

"So I wanted your brother to stay with Will and the others for a while, so that we could rendezvous later!

"What are you talking about, there's no way I'm going through that"

Laughing at me, my brother's cold voice flies.

That's insane not to go say hello to both of us, but I can't say that all this time either.

"It's not bad, because your brother is close enough to allow it, and you can always meet Alex."

"You're also my fiancée, so I'll see you at any time."

Yeah, to put it this way, I snorted at such a brother's attitude.

If that was the case, I guess I wouldn't bother doing such a hassle.

"... if you'd like to meet me,"

I groaned small and small in my mouth as I spit out my smoking anger.

To that whine, I felt Will's shoulder jump slightly, but I'm not sure I heard it.

"Anyway, I'm coming to see Alex."

"I haven't agreed, Amelia!

"Well, wait, both of you"

Will will be stopped at the site of the slaughter.

"This is a place to celebrate, such a statement would be unlikely. You should go say hello to Alexander soon."

To Will's words I bite the bitter bug and my brother gives a look like he took a ghost's neck.

But to his suggestion, which lasted, it turned around.

"But only Wellbellsley will be back soon, will you? I want you to deal with me."

"Huh?"

"Actually, I've been asking Scott a lot about the student council at the High Ministry. I'd like to ask you a few questions."

As Will turns his gaze to Scott, he nods with a full grin.

Apparently, that's why they were together.

"Amelia can come back when she has a paragraph in her story with Alexander. Wellbellsley would be boring with my opponents, too, thank you."

To Will, who said so and bowed his head, my brother and I round our eyes.

"Oh, no, no! Keep your head up, please!

I was very surprised inside, flanking my brother in a sudden panic.

I was prepared to be blamed or flabbergasted, but rather this...

"... I get it. Let's go, brother."

Pull my brother's arm, still confused in front of Will, and walk out.

At a different moment from Will's, I whispered in such a voice that I could only hear him.

"Thank you, Will"

Will didn't say anything to the words, but I was very happy.

He said he could start and get someone to help him... because that's what I felt.

□

Put Will and the others down and I'll walk to the center of the floor. I need to see Alex soon...... now is a waste of time considering the developments that will happen after this.

Avoid thoughtful dancing and talking Guests while looking for more densely populated places.

Alex is the star of this party, so if you look for where people are most swarmed, you should find him naturally.

... Look, I don't like it but it stands out, that bright red head.

I got caught at the edge of the spinning gaze, and I turn to my toes with a few glances.

"Dear Alex!

When I said so with a slightly louder voice, the guests I was talking to looked at me and gave me a strange look.

The Emoldauk students are not the only ones called to this party. I guess a lot of noblemen aren't used to seeing my hair yet.

"... Welcome, Amelia. And my friend, Leonhardt."

To that name that came out of his mouth, the surrounding man peeled his eyes gleefully.

If you turn your gaze to them that are flashy and contain the obvious hostility, you can have a soothing circle of people around Alex. At a time like this, the title fiancée is very useful.

I snorted satisfied with the way it looked and approached him in such a way as not to be evil, naturally.

"Happy Birthday. The truth is, I wanted to give you my most congratulatory words... but I can only hope you won't see me again."

As a matter of fact, Alex refuses my invitation because he's busy getting ready every year, so he's never been able to say the most congratulatory words.

Now that I think about it, I guess that was just well embellished.

"But we just need to keep that for later fun."

But if you let the marriage slip away and say so, the nobles you were asking around will fade.

On the other hand, though my brother was as faceless as Nobu.

"Happy birthday, Alex. Nice party."

My brother congratulates Alex as he breaks my conversation.

"Oh, thank you. You want something to drink?

"No, Master William is calling me... sorry to keep you busy"

My brother shook his head at Alex trying to stop the waiter.

The neighboring noblemen obsessed with the name William, whom his brother had spoken, but Alex groaned as if he were impressed.

"Well, I'll go... just a little, please, Amelia's opponent"

Until I talked to you, my brother left, adding an extra word that I don't think even Teco would move... etc.

"That's what I'm talking about. May I?"

"If William gives me a hand, I don't have a choice. Trouble."

The look on Alex's face sounds somewhere fun, saying things like trouble. I feel like I can't tell you how it is.

But now I don't have time to be biting about it. There aren't many opportunities for me to talk to Alex at this party.

"Hey Dear Alex..."

So if you're in a good mood for Alex, you tell yourself you've never done it, and then you turn to Alex.

"Actually, I was drunk with the carriage earlier and I'm not feeling well. So I was wondering if Alex could show me to the rest room..."

Alex's eyes were applauded by my words. I keep smiling at that.

"But if you dance and move your body, you'll feel better."

The truth is, I was thinking of talking to you out of sight.

But then I'm sure...... Alex can't be caught. Before I listen, they get away with it.

Then you can go the other way.

"How about a song?

Smiling down the central hall, Alex laughed and offered his hand after staring at me for a while.
