I Favor the Villainess

Having finished the dance with Master Claire, I was coming to the edge of the hall where the food was lined up to take a breath.

As a result of hard work and efforts to improve, the dishes at the ball are quite delicious.

Something ingenious about the local cuisine of the Empire, as well as new dishes incorporated from the kingdom, line up with the colorful narrow.

"You've tasted better!

"Yeah, not like before!

As long as I am happy to hear such a voice from the participants in the ballroom who spoke of the dishes.

It doesn't seem like it's just imperial people who find it delicious,

"What, there's this kind of sausage alone?

"This pretzel is delicious."

"I was fooling around with imperial cooking... Regrettably......, but I eat it!

International students from Bauer also seem to be in a bit of a cultural shock.

How insulting it is that our food culture will always be above us.

Because food is something that keeps evolving.

My biggest goal is to dance with Master Claire, so all I have to do is indulge in cooking.

Start with the sausage and add a little dish to the dish.

"Oh, were you here, Ray"

Hilda came.

She is also in an evening dress today.

Hilda, an ice and snow beauty in Misha and Eve genealogy, was dressed in a blue long dress.

It's too neat to even get close.

"What is it, Master Hilda?

"I just wanted to say thank you."

With that said, Hilda smiled at the example.

"Thanks to you the diet of the Empire has improved considerably. I made it to the princess's unveiling, and thank you so much."

"No, I'm not a big deal."

"Ray, modesty is not a virtue at times. You've done your part, so you should be proud of it."

"Ha..."

I'm not being modest, I'm serious about that.

"Hilda! You were here!

"Princess, you're in a good mood"

Philine came too.

I was already watching him play some dance opponents, so probably something like a small pause.

"Do you also enjoy the princess? The food is delicious."

"Thanks. But I'm going to stop because I'm going to be unable to move. Hey, Ray. Where's Claire? I want to dance with Claire too."

"If it's Master Claire, I think she was in the hall. Isn't that a mistake?

"Yes...... Claire would have done it again."

"Yeah. As a partner, it's like half proud, half jealous."

"... I guess so"

To the word partner, Filine looked uninteresting.

Or look like that and you won't give up there, will you?

"So why don't you dance with me?

Hilda made such a suggestion.

"Yeah, fine."

"Oh, I told Ray, not the princess"

"... eh...?

Filine's complexion blued slightly out of step.

Hilda seemed unaware of it,

"What do you say, Ray?

"I'm sorry, I've decided not to dance with anyone but Claire."

"Really? Too bad."

"It must be the bottom line, right?

"Do you understand?"

"Well, yes, I am."

and other belly searches,

"... I'll be back in the hall."

That's what I said, Philine's gone.

"... is that on purpose now too?

"Do you understand?

"That's okay, it sounds like birth, right?

"The princess saw it as a setback. Because you're going to be more helpful to me."

Finally, they're no longer going to hide it.

"I'm not from the Empire, am I?

"Still, you are very close to Your Majesty. For once, more than a princess."

"It's just a buyout."

"Is it? Your Majesty is not in the eyes of a princess or anything, except you. with you, and Claire-François."

That said, Hilda laughed intriguingly.

This is not the usual smile.

Belly black, it's her natural grin.

"Dear Hilda, you do cruel things"

"About what?

"I'm talking about Master Filine. She must have missed you the most among imperial officials"

"Oh, where did you find out about that?

"I'd rather ask the other way around, but how is that a premise you don't know? It's a fact that even students in the school know."

Anna, who provides favorability information, is not special.

"Hehe, this is tough. Do you want to get caught up in easy kamaki"

"I don't care how you rate me. Filine is a woman with a strong core, but there is something called limit. The betrayal of someone you trusted cannot be overwhelming."

"You know exactly where you stand."

Hilda laughs when she dulls.

I think Filine is getting a little unstable right now.

Claire, the thinker, already has someone named me.

I have raised a few handles as a start to the revolution.

I'm also spoiled by Dorothea, her mother of fruit, and if even Hilda on top of this starts to give me priority, it's weirder for Filine not to be offended by inferiority.

"Working with me wouldn't be a bad story for you, either, would it? You must want to change the way this country works."

"That's not what we're talking about here."

I left Hilda's former.

Even though so far no harm has been done by the Empire, it is not necessarily the same in the future.

I don't want to hold an extra spark.

Ha......, annoying.

Is this positive or negative for the Imperial Cage Liaison?

Probably negative.

In our initial plans, it was to burn Filine and make her wait for the Empire's invasive diplomacy.

However, I am becoming isolated from the Filine of the day.

This is somewhat, you might want to change the operation.

"What is it, Laisense?

I found Lana after walking for a while.

He doesn't seem to be going to dance as we talked about before, and he's arranging dishes in a cup of pickup dishes.

"Oh, yeah, it's nothing. And Eve?"

"I went dancing with Yoel. Because of that. She's surprisingly meeky."

Lana laughed brightly, haha.

That unusual light nori is gratifying to me now.

Hilda and I are tired anyway.

"Lana, you really don't dance."

"Yeah. Atashi, I can't do that."

Saying so, Lana laughed brightly again.

"There would have been a dance lecture at the academy, wouldn't there?

"There it is. I don't think Atashi is right for you."

"Yes...... Well, I'm something like that."

"If I could dance, I would have liked to dance with Sense. Oh, what, I'll do a dance tournament at night or something? Atashi, no, you're good at that, aren't you?

Lana now says as she twists her body.

"I'm not talking stupid."

"Ouch!?

It was our Lady Claire who pounded Lana on the shoulder.

Looks like Master Claire's here for a little pause, too.

"Dear Claire, have you met with Filine?

"Yeah. I was invited to the dance, but I was a little tired, so I refused."

"Ahhh......"

What a bad time.

"Is something wrong?

"Actually..."

I explained an earlier incident with Hilda.

"... it was"

"Will you still dance and lift me up?

Even if I am hated, if Master Claire likes me, I still have eyes on my original plans.

"It would be counterproductive. Once you say no, why would Filine think that?"

"Really..."

Something that doesn't work.

In the end, the ball ended with nothing after that.

Just one point.

Except Philine, the lead actor, left the room on her way out.
