Outaishihi ni Nante Naritakunai!!

……

Maximilian told me and shut up.

When we first met.

It was when Maximilian came to Wilhelm to call it my engagement celebration.When Maximilian asked me to be present, Lidi met him with me.

Even if you were present, of course, it was just me and Maximilian.Having had all her spare time, she was enjoying her tea party alone, pinching the sweets that were lined up on the table.

I think it was the beginning of Maximilian's interest to see it as a lavish princess.

When I remembered that time, I had a bad feeling about him, who showed a smile that I rarely saw.

I don't think so, but I think he really likes Liddy.

Indeed, when I talked to Maximilian at the party, he told Liddy that he was a “woman in love.”

She also said that she had fired all the concubines.

But I thought it would be a temporary whim.Because Maximilian is a man who always pursues his own interests and is not related to serious love.

That's why I didn't care that much, even though I felt uncomfortable.

After all, what he wants is Liddy's ability, not hers.I thought once he got rid of it thoroughly, he'd choose to give up on Liddy, because he was good at making a profit and loss account.

--This might be bad.

It's easy to imagine that a man like Maximilian won't be busy falling in love with a woman.

After a thorough beating, will you give up?No, they'll find a way to win anyway, and they'll be on their way.

……

Cain tells me that Maximilian's allies are flickering in his head.

I see. When he fell in love with Liddy, he chose to beat me by any means necessary.

It's not like that, but if he's serious about Liddy, I can see that change.

I looked straight at Maximilian.

"... Maximilian. I'll tell you again." Don't touch Liddy.If you're going to take her away from me, I won't really forgive you. "

“So what? I never give up what I want.In the near future, the princess will be my queen.This is the decision. "

"Maximilian..."

I nod Maximilian, who never tries to stop his witchcraft remarks.For some reason he was laughing amusedly.

"Your anger is leaking, Prince Friedrich."Oh, yeah. Are you aware of that?Unless you were so angry, you wouldn't have disrupted your attitude toward me.But not now. It was aggressive from the start.As far as I'm concerned, it's better than being mended. "

……

I stared at Maximilian.

I was of course aware of what was pointed out to him.Before I got engaged to Liddy, I was as calm as I could be when I talked to Maximilian.There is a reason why I didn't show him the gap, but there is also a reason why I wasn't aware of his existence.

However, after I got engaged to Liddy and found out that Maximilian was after her, I had to abandon it...

Because they were after me.A friendly attitude, even if it's just upstairs?I don't think I'll take such a thing.

I'll crush it thoroughly. That's all I can think of.

"It's just a change of heart. There's no need to be relentless with those who aim for the queen."

"I see, that's true, too."For me, it seems like the skin of a haze has peeled off, and it's fun. "

Maximilian looked at me with a laugh deep in his throat.

"-That's a really good trend. You've finally seen me, Prince Friedrich."

What?

"I won't tell you I didn't notice."You've never looked at anyone properly.Because of your overblessed talent, you knew that no one could be your enemy.That's true for me, too. "

……

"I hated you so much.I hated you more than anyone who looked irrelevant to me.I thought I'd let you recognize me someday... but I didn't think you'd recognize me through the princess. No, it's really fun. "

Maximilian gladly traced the wound to his cheek. That's how I open my mouth.

"When did you first recognize me?"It's when you put this wound on me.A testament to your recognition of me as your enemy.The wound that I seriously tried to get rid of.It's time to kill you and take the princess to my queen. "

"... if you can do it, try it"

I will tell you with the feeling that I will give you back.I can't give you a pretext for war if you try to set it up, but I'm prepared to stand up to you if you think it's going to spill over.

Is it something to refrain from? He strikes at Maximilian with his sword skill.

"I'll show you my victory, even if I don't want to."I was able to stand up in a hurry right now.At most, you should spare no time for your eternal farewell to the princess. "

You seem very confident.

Yeah, of course.

Maximilian laughs. The smile was full of confidence that he was sure of victory.

"- Stay tuned."

I got up from the chair and headed to the door.

I thought it would happen anyway, but I guess I didn't intend to have a proper meeting from the beginning.It seems that this bilateral meeting was for him only to declare war on me.

Release words to Maximilian's back.

I told him that I was holding him back and that I had information too.

I see. The Witch Giltia is so dependable that she can make false claims that you can beat me.

"Ah!?"

Maximilian, with his hand on the door, looked back at us with tremendous force.I didn't think I had that much information.

I knew it was almost certain, but I was sure of my response.After all, his ally is definitely Witch Giltia.

Normal Maximilian would not have been attracted to such childish appearances, but if he could defeat me, he would have become a person who floated somewhat.Chauvinism leads to defeat.

"... you, where did you do that?"

"Come on. Is it better than that?"Even though I had plenty of room, my skin peeled off, Maximilian. "

He glares at me with remorse.Speaking of which, I gave him plenty of room to laugh back.His face warps more and more.

"... well, I don't know what to do if I don't know who my allies are."What happens? What is the reason for the cutting?Fear and wait for that moment, sophisticated.- I'll tell you what, Friedrich. I'll take your head. "

He recovered his feelings and quietly returned them to Maximilian, who declared them majestically.

When I say this out loud, it doesn't work.Calm down at all times. I know that's the most important thing.

"--Unfortunately, my neck is not as cheap as I can give you."

"Kuku... oh, that's right. Otherwise, it's not funny."

Like a lie before, he had a pleasant look on his face.When I laughed with satisfaction, it was time to leave the room.

The door closed and I was left alone in the room.

I don't care if no one is there, so I put my feet together and take a cup of tea.The contents were cold, but I just wanted to moisten my dry throat, so I didn't have to bother brewing it again.

"--I thought it would be a fruitless meeting, but the harvest was unexpected."

The contents of the cup are swallowed up and muttered.

Maximilian's ally was identified as the Sahaja Witch. This is pretty big.

Now, what is he going to do to me with an ally named Witch?

And how are you going to take away my queen?

Of course, I wouldn't let that happen.

"I want to see Liddy."

I kind of wanted to see her smile.
