"Ha, ha... I'm sorry, I made you feel bad. It's okay now."

From above my head, I heard Fred's low voice.

Why is he here now when he should be enjoying dancing with Maria?

Right in front of you is a gold button with a large chest and a recognizable jacket.

As she wandered her gaze without knowing the situation well, Maria stood in front of the door exiting the venue onto the terrace and entered her sight.

"Fred... why, Lord Wilfred...?

Looking up, Fred breathed lightly and sweaty on his forehead.

"I saw you leave the venue. I had a bad feeling about this."

After seeing me worriedly, he stared at His Highness Frederick and reprimanded him quietly and in a low, angry tone.

I don't know what kind of tail would make a scandal for two princes if the people who yell and enjoy the night club realized this with emotion right now.

Besides, it was Daria, who was also known as a freak in this country, who was caught between them.

It's decided to be rumored that she was having a quarrel during the night club with the strange girl from another country. But it's more problematic that this leads to Daria's scandal.

"Frederick, what are you thinking! I'm sure you know who she is. You ruined my life, Duchess Elaine Norris! She is also a relative of King Alford, and your foolishness will cause a rift in your relationship with your friendly country!

His Highness Frederick looked surprised to say that he did not know. Then he bit his lips and looked at Aaron with resentment.

"Your Highness... you didn't listen to me? Before the evening party began, I briefed His Highness on the participants of the evening. I should like to conclude by telling you that Marquis Daria Amber Kenzit is Elaine's second cousin. First, isn't it obvious if you look at that person? I thought you said you wanted to apologize again because you knew...."

"I don't know! I didn't hear that!

His Highness Frederick turned his back on Puy and said he wasn't bad, but he looked sorry.

You didn't... you certainly didn't.

His Royal Highness Frederick was not good at remembering the nobility of his family, and I whispered to those who had spoken at parties. I remember meeting many times, but I forget about meeting or not meeting once a year very quickly.

At that time, when His Highness mistakenly said something strange, I immediately followed him.

Even if I let you know in advance, this person doesn't feel like remembering in the first place, so it doesn't make sense.

I don't know what you've been doing since I left you... I thought you saw something I didn't know earlier, but I'm stunned that your Highness is still alive.

I don't know how Aaron explained it, but His Highness only remembered what he had heard about Daria before.

You wanted to look down on His Royal Highness Wilfred, who took the throne of the Crown Prince, knowing that the opponent was Dalia, the famous freak.

... you are still not a king vessel. I'm glad we all disappeared from the public arena.

"To tell you the truth, Miss Daria insulted me because she knew me as a prince! I'm just trying to punish you a little, but don't exaggerate...."

Fred gently entrusted me to Master Hubert and grabbed His Highness Frederick's chest and lifted it up. His Highness Frederick struggled to lift his hand and narrowed his eyes in agony.

"Gu... giggle... let go... this... idiot...!

"His Highness Wilfred....! Please stop, this place is visible to the public. We can't stop the Lord, so please calm down now because we will be punished later."

Upon hearing Aaron's appeal, His Highness Wilfred threw Frederick with his tongue at Evan.

Evan caught him safely, and he didn't get hurt as badly as Hubert did, and the bottom of his pants got a little dirty.

"Daria insulted you? I know you made me do it! I guess I followed her anyway. Didn't you have to say something to get rid of it?

"... it looks like you've been watching..."

His Highness Frederick was scolded and sent a glance at me as if he had said something.

"Your Highness, I know exactly what you did to Elaine. I'm not the kind of person who can do that."

"Hmm... when I was told about Elaine... Miss Daria, I'm sorry. Let's go, both of you."

His Serene Highness Frederick, who was unable to say anything, apologized in a frustrating manner and left the place.

Just by naming me, I didn't think I'd pull back like this, and Hubert-sama and I were stunned.

Upon leaving, Aaron looked at my face and smiled as if she was relieved. Then he muttered with a slug.

"It doesn't change when you disguise your ears, so you should hide them."

What?

I clasped my ears with my hands and saw Aaron.

"Fufu, I'm kidding. Good luck."

"Ah...."

Aaron must have realized that I was Elaine. Certainly the ear has an unexpected personality, so if you can remember its characteristics, you may find out.

Having said that, I quickly realized that Aaron-sama had teased me because my ears were not so characteristic.

"What did Aaron say?

"No, nothing. By the way, didn't His Highness seem to be dancing right now?

"It wouldn't have been that far. You were supposed to be looking at us by the wall, watching you go out on the terrace. I couldn't see Fredrick and the others from earlier, and I had a bad feeling, so I left the dancing partner and hurried to the terrace. And I couldn't see you on the terrace, and when I saw you under the stairs in his arms, I forgot me in anger."

When the conversation between me and Fred started, Hubert took care and left the scene.

"If you were dancing with me, were you left alone on the spot?

"My step-in-law passed. I heard her father's request to dance with her daughter. She wanted to say no to me next time, but I don't want to be crying there....."

Did you really miss Maria? That Maria? Besides, I can't believe you were about to dance two songs without crying... I don't think she had that personality. Is it true that the rumor that you admire His Highness wasn't always a lie?

"As promised, let's go see the fountain. I can't go back there anymore."

"Yes, but why don't you just say no to the lady earlier? I think you're perplexed because you suddenly disappeared without saying anything....."

"... that's a little troublesome. Just leave it alone. Let's go."

Seeing the door where Maria stood earlier, she was still standing there.

Unfortunately, I can't see that look from here.

Perhaps the true lord chose Daria as his partner, rather than an unspecified number of prostitutes, to avoid Maria.

Speaking of which, Liam was distressed that asking a poor girl would make her look weird. Until now, when I needed a woman with me, Maria said she played that role, but if that's true, there's no reason to expect it.

I'm sorry about Frederick.

"No, Your Highness is not to apologize. That was an inevitable accident. Someday, it was ahead of us."

When I felt a little cold because it hit the wind too much at night, Fred put on my jacket again. For cold bare skin, his warm jacket felt very warm.

"It's warm. Thank you very much."

"Oh, my skin was so cold when I touched it earlier... if it was true, I should probably go back to the venue..."

"No, I'm fine. Let's walk, and it'll warm you up."

Already quite close to the fountain, I somehow looked back and looked at the entire building that became the venue.

... is that the same building you dreamed of? Yeah, when I was a kid, I came to the king's tea party with my mother, but it might have been the building I saw at that time.
