“Monica, how did it go?”
“Yes. When I delivered that woman’s head, Margaret-sama was thrown into disarray,”
When I asked Monica, who had returned from her errand, she reported matter-of-factly without changing her expression.
But, Margaret was thrown into disarray, huh? That just goes to show how important that personal maid… “Ayame Mochizuki” was to her.
By the way, Ayame Mochizuki is a heroine who was implemented a week before the announcement of the end of service for “EnHaza” in my previous life.
Ayame, who came from an eastern country, was a ninja, and I remember the scenario where she enrolled in the Royal Academy as a spy for someone.
Or rather, I never thought she was Margaret’s pet.
By the way, Ayame has a unique skill called [Shichihenge], which allows her to transform into any appearance.
That’s why when I saw that woman I was disguised as, I didn’t think she was a character from “EnHaza” and was unnecessarily wary.
“Certainly, her disguise skills were first-rate. Even I couldn’t see through her true identity.”
If Monica says so, then it must be true.
However, aside from disguises, she was clearly inferior to Monica.
“But… disarray, huh…”
I gazed out the window and muttered to myself.
This isn’t the result I was hoping for, but even so, I broke my mother’s heart.
It’s too late now, and more than guilt, I feel more emptiness that Ayame was more important to that woman than I was.
If Sandra, Monica, and Caz weren’t here, I would have been the one to break down… I’m sure of it.
“？ What’s wrong?”
“…No, it’s nothing.”
Monica shook her head, but… you’re such an idiot. You’re always teasing me and never showing your emotions, so what are you doing making that face?
“Ah…”
“Monica, I’m fine. But, thank you.”
“Yes…”
Feeling sorry for Sandra, I gently hugged my precious personal maid who was hurting for me, to convey my gratitude.
At that moment.
–Knock, knock.
…Someone came to this room.
“…I’ll go see.”
“Yeah.”
Reluctantly letting go, Monica headed to the door.
Still, who could it be?
If it were Sandra, she would have called out when knocking, and if it were Lize, she wouldn’t have knocked at all, and if it were Christia, she would have knocked persistently, and if it were Carla, it would have been more forceful. Huh? Sandra is the only one who can knock properly.
Well, Yuri calls out too, and Liliana has been gradually learning the manners of a lady recently (as long as meat isn’t involved), so it’s not like there are only strange people… right?
I was thinking about that, but it’s probably that guy.
“Prince Harold. Prince Cardis has arrived.”
See? From Margaret’s condition, I thought he would come.
“What would you like to do?”
“Of course, I’ll meet him. Show him to the reception room.”
“Understood.”
Now… what should I talk about?
Wilfred, who is favored by King Aival, has put him at a disadvantage in the Succession Dispute, and Margaret, his biggest supporter, has been rendered useless by my hand.
In a way, Cardis is undoubtedly the most unfortunate person because I regained my memories of my previous life.
If things had gone according to the “Engage Hazard” scenario, he would have at least been in a decent position as a good rival to the protagonist, Wilfred.
…No, that’s not true.
I came to this world and learned about Wilfred, but I’m sure that man would have made those involved unhappy beyond the “EnHaza” scenario.
Well, whatever.
First, I’ll listen to Cardis’s business and then think about it.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
I put on a mask of a smile and appeared in the reception room.
Cardis widened his eyes for a moment, then immediately lowered them.
Is it a reaction of anger or fear towards me, who put his own mother through such an ordeal, or is it because he has different intentions or feelings?
“So… what business do you have coming all the way to this detached palace? I thought my brother and I had clearly parted ways.”
“…Ah, I know.”
Oh? I threw out a sarcastic remark, but he’s responding meekly.
I have a feeling I’m about to get caught up in something troublesome.
“Then, please get to the point quickly. I’m busy.”
Even though I’m just spending the rest of the Summer Break with Sandra and Lize.
No, Lize is the first princess of the Capetien Kingdom, and Christia is the Saint of the Barthian Holy Kingdom. Above all, Sandra is my fiancée. There is no more important reception than this.
But.
“…………………”
Cardis just looks down and doesn’t say anything.
I don’t think I can stand the silence any longer.
After waiting for several minutes.
“…Harold. I would like to Sparring with you.”
Just when I thought he was finally going to open his mouth, he suddenly challenged me to a Duel.
