I was Reincarnated and Now I’m a Maid

So?

"Yeah? What's up, Albert?"

I say I don't like Albert when I smile, but I look at him half-eyed.

It's not like I'm in a bad mood, but I don't think that's the kind of face you should have, but I won't tell you that.

This childhood friend is in a position to take on the pressure from the surroundings, and he has met all the expectations of the adults.

And he's also very clumsy in his emotional expressions.

(Well, that's interesting!)

I... Reed Marc Rigil is the son of the Royal Family's Rigil Chamber of Commerce, and our fathers, the King and Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, are also personal friends, so they became friends naturally.

Well, from the public's perspective, the son of the Rigil Chamber of Commerce is likely to be flirting with the prince from a young age to get him to like him, but in reality, our position is the same.

Well, that's not because there's a solid difference in identity on the stage (...).

"Yes, yes. Albert, you always say that, don't you? I have to put more words into it."

"... hmm"

"So, uh... I see. I greeted that girl and her engagement. Yeah, you're quite an interesting girl, I like that."

"... are you insane...?"

Hey, isn't it terrible?

Recently, I had a fiancée too.

Baroness Murietta von Wiener, daughter of the rumored "Hero" in the alley.

Pale red hair, bright green eyes, free-flowing and refreshing personality, plus a clear mind, and besides, it can be used even to recover magic.

Because education couldn't keep up, there was just a little bit of an old lady passing by, so the upper level has been quite eye-catching... well, I can tell everyone by looking up a little bit.

The engagement between me and her is still an internal matter. [M]

What do you mean, she's a student? Well, I'm in training as a trailblazer for the Chamber of Commerce.

"... that's good for you, isn't it?"

Albert looks at me with his eyes at a bit of a painful thing.

It seems that she is very much disliked.

He thinks I've been pushed by a loser, so he's plotting against me.

If I say "a little extra" here, he must move behind my back so that I can break my engagement.

Behind the ruthlessness, Albert is basically a good guy.

It's just that the knowledge that adults can't beat, the ability to use it, and the mask that I wore to not be underestimated with my children have stopped coming off.

(Well... you can't be expected to be the only son of that capable queen)

The king's affection is now poured only on his late daughter.

As a king, the children will not be inconvenienced, so as not to defy the ideals of the people... and even though you raised me to be well educated as a guide to the people, how was that for Albert?

(Fortunately, my siblings seem to be fine, and it must have made it without twisting.)

It looks like the maid was flickering behind it.

I'm grateful if I think I've seen less of my best friend's sad face.

"I didn't tell Albert."

"... what is it?"

"I was the one who said I was going to make her my fiancée."

She...... Murietta von Winner is difficult to handle.

If you treat it roughly, you can buy the people's mistrust and use it freely. In the first place, you will lose your rare healing ability with your wings.

It's nice to enclose her father in the country as one of the wedges and her daughter as a daughter, but it's quite a bounce.

If I were a cute girl who listened to Hoi's words just by praising her with an empty head, I would be very grateful for her presence in the upper echelons... but a girl named Murietta was very clever, for better or for worse.

So, it's easy to understand that it's better to let them marry rather than let them free.

However, when it comes to who will pick it up (...), it becomes confusing again.

"You?"

It's a good story, isn't it?

"... certainly, it's not too tall, but it's most suitable when you think it's worth the capital and will lead to the future of the Winners."

Well, that's it.

But...

"I don't need to sacrifice myself or her visibility... so don't worry about it."

"... really?"

“I'm telling the truth! Oh, my God, Albert's too worried.”

When my father asked me what to do just in case, I told him I should take it.

My father looked a little surprised, but he weighed in on what I said he should do. [M]

I haven't told anyone why. [M]

"I was quite surprised when I said hello." She was a cute girl, and as far as I'm concerned, I don't have any complaints at the moment. "

"...... if you like, that's fine."

"Besides, I'm also busy studying business right now, so it would be more convenient for her to study freely at school." Oh, I'll be in regular contact with you like my fiancé, and I'll take you to the evening party. "

"... I see."

"After that, I see." Maybe she'll get involved in the business eventually, so I'll find something she can do. "

I'm not expecting it.

You just have to leave her alone.

When I went to say hello for the first time, that look on Murietta's face that I knew who I was engaged to was quite a sight to behold.

I'm sure I'll be thinking about it by now.

(Come on, did you give up your first love? Or are we going to continue to do bad things? Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to seeing how you (...) dance!)

You can do as you please. I'll do something about it before it's too late.

She should behave freely. At least for now.

However, if you try to tell me how I feel, I'm sure you won't get any understanding or empathy from anyone.

For Albert, who I've known for a long time.

You're laughing so badly, aren't you?

Yeah? I don't know.

"If you don't realize it, it's bad."

"If Albert tells you, you'll get hurt."

While I'm saying it, I think it's because I'm in front of Albert.

I'll never say it, but I'm sure he dared to say it because he knows it.

Well, that's right.

"I like her." in a proper, romantic sense. "

"... that's fine. If you're happy, I can safely congratulate you."

"Ahahah, what? But thank you."

Maybe I can tell Albert why, he's my best friend.

In time, maybe a little later, maybe it's best that Murietta graduated from school safely?

Depending on Murietta's actions, I may be able to tell her why first.

(Oh, yeah. I'll buy you a chocolate on the way home.)

You're a bitter guy, by the way!
