"Engagement, is it"

The words summoned and told during the sight were in a way as expected.

I still don't even prescribe a fiancée, and I guess I'm worried about my fluttering son.

I knew how my father felt to be in his hands.

It was more surprising that the royalty around me had ever made me like it as they decided to get engaged and get married one after the other.

At the time of payment of the annual contribution?

"That's right. It's not good that Prince Wang will always be single. It's time for you to set up a formal fiancée."

But the prime minister refrained from speaking in the lower part of his father. I think I'm in a good mood for some reason.

That's all I pinned.

... Probably my opponent is his daughter.

He has been suing his own daughter to my Lady for years, but this time it seems that my father's permission has finally been granted.

"... are you the prime minister's lady"

I checked and they nodded.

I knew I would be made engaged in the near future anyway.

Marriage is a royal duty, and if it's someone my father recognized, I didn't deny it.

"Okay."

"... Fried. If there's someone you like..."

"Such care is unnecessary. Father. It is the royal duty to enter into a marital relationship with a better opponent for the country. If that's what your father decided, I'd be happy to take it."

Accepted the engagement pale.

I'm sick of women. Everyone is with me. Then you should at least marry the profitable person my father chose.

"Well... the ceremony is scheduled for next year. If you change your mind by then, just say so."

"Thank you for your generous consideration. But that can't happen."

I bowed my head deeply and quit the field.

Think as you go back to your room.

Punishment, maybe.

Just to make it easier for me, I've been acting like I don't want to, but I've been acting like a sucker.

I didn't think that would come in these ways, but I could also accept marriages that I didn't mean to if I thought they were payoffs.

If you take the Chancellor's daughter to the Queen, you will naturally be asked to make a child.

I even wondered if I could hold the Queen until she was pregnant, but I couldn't stop the royal blood.

If you don't feel like holding the Queen without having a child, put a woman in the rear palace at worst and continue to increase your once-in-a-lifetime concubine until you conceive the child, something may happen.

... the rear palace.

Just imagine, I felt sick and almost threw up.

I did something stupid, no matter how much I was caught up with, and holding a woman at a night club was this as soon as I made that decision to stop it.

Totally easy. I sighed about whether this was what I deserved in the worst possible future.

"Congratulations on your engagement, Fried"

Returning to the office, Glenn was waiting to hear the story quickly.

I guess you know how I feel. I have congratulated him even though he has a complicated face.

"... there's nothing to celebrate."

Answer as you sit in a chair. There was a more emotionless voice than I thought.

It hits Glenn on me, and I'm surprised at myself like that.

He was supposed to be convinced, but he was more shocked than he thought.

Calm your feelings and then spin the words. It's not Glenn's fault.

"... I hope you don't mind. Just do your duty as royalty. I thought it might be time for you to tell me."

"Freed......"

"Don't look like that. Because that's what I knew."

Growling so, Glenn lowered his brow and just nodded "yes".

Maybe I look terribly pitiful right now.

I knew even if they didn't point it out.

"... if you're dealing with someone, is that the prime minister's lady?

"Oh, that's what you said. I guess I'm so glad I carried things the way I think I am. I laughed all the time."

This is the first time I've ever seen a cutter and that famous prime minister make a joyful face.

"When it comes to the prime minister's maiden, is she a phantom princess (Maburo Hime)..."

"Hmm?"

Neck Glenn into words he can't hear.

"What?

Don't you know, Glenn continued.

"Fantasy Princess. I'm your fiancée. She barely even comes to nightclubs because of rumors of being sick and weak. The Chancellor won't want to keep a man close to his daughter either. They've been calling me that ever since because I don't show up too much."

It's the first time I've noticed it since I was told.

Even when they told me she was the Chancellor's daughter, I couldn't remember what she looked like.

There's only one thing that that means.

"... if you say so, I've never met you either"

If you are the daughter of the Chancellor, the lead duke, and my fiancée's most prominent candidate, it should be okay to have had it at least a few times.

In fact, the Chancellor had tried many times to set up a place. But I always recall that it ended up flowing.

I never cared any more because I didn't like to see a woman or anything like her in power, so I seemed happy.

"Are you with the Chancellor's lady? As far as I can tell from this conversation, it seemed to me that the Chancellor wanted to put his daughter on your lady somehow. It's a strange story that we've never met."

"... Absolutely, Princess Phantom is a good word."

Nevertheless, I'm just thankful that my fiancée wasn't chosen among the surrounding ladies, who compete for their own pets. On the day someone in there was said to be his own fiancée or something, no matter how many orders, none of them were likely to listen.

"... you might be surprisingly wonderful, right?

"Will you stop consoling me that doesn't make sense? I'm no different than any other woman."

Still, I don't have the option to say no.

If you refuse here, you will only be sent to your new fiancée. Trouble is enough for once.

"... can you even see it in your lady's painting?

I shook my head at Glenn that I would be looking for him.

"No, fine. I won't want to see you any time soon anyway."

"Freed......"

I laugh bitterly at my best friend, who looks sorry for me.

"I'm convinced. I wasn't forced to accept the engagement. You said that if you have a woman you like, you don't mind saying no... and they'll wait until the ceremony."

"Yes, is it?

Glenn looked out. I guess I didn't expect you to say that.

Gently nod to indicate affirmation.

"I think it would be gratifying if you just said that. At any rate, that means I didn't have that many women."

"Freed...... we still have time!!

Glenn has enthusiastically embarked on himself, claiming that it is not too late.

Find the woman you love.

But even if they say so, I don't feel like it.

It's too late for everything.

Besides, I didn't want to love anybody anymore.

I'm really sorry for the warrant I was chosen for my marriage, but I won't ever love her.

However, I still want to treat it as important. Even without love, we have to spend decades together.

"No, that's enough. It must have been tidal time. Going to the masquerade was just getting disgusting, and I was going to stop next. Maybe it was the voice of heaven telling you to clean up your neighborhood."

With that said, Glenn gave him a stiff look.

I guess he noticed too thinly that I was the limit.

I've bowed my head deeply.

"I'm sorry. I just said I'm bored..."

"Glenn thought about it a lot. This is my problem. That's not what you care about."

I was the one who originally brought the consultation.

Though I didn't like it, I also decided to do it nonetheless.

Blaming him is a mistake.

"But..."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I don't know what to say."

I told him the end of the story, still trying to recruit him, and I concentrated on the paperwork.

Still, my own voice laughs in my head.

- Whoo-hoo, what's "The Completely Independant Prince of Kings"?

If that's true, you're not supposed to be like this by now, are you?

I thought it would be a good ending for me to be stupid.
