“Munch, munch… gulp. I wouldn’t mind dancing with Hal-san.”
“「Eh!?」”
Why do you have to put me in an even tighter spot here…?
Look, because of your careless remark, I feel like I’m making enemies of not only capture targets like Cardis and Raphael, but even my wife, Sandra.
“Well, think about it. Even if Your Highness were to ask me to dance, it’s impossible for me to partner with you when I’ve never danced before.”
“Well, I am the Third Prince, after all…”
“In that case, it’s either Hal-san or Lloyd, but since I’m turning down Prince Cardis and Prince Raphael, Hal-san is the only one of equal standing who can be my partner. Isn’t that perfect logic?”
That logic is full of holes.
Can you please seriously stop completely ignoring my position?
“…Liliana-san. Do you understand what you’re saying?”
“Hiiiiieee!?”
Liliana was tapped on the shoulder from behind by Sandra, whose crimson eyes were gleaming with a faint smile, and she screamed loud enough to echo throughout the hall.
Or rather, you probably knew this would happen from the start, didn’t you?
“I-I-I’m so sorry! I was just thinking of myself and ended up asking Hal-san for help! I never intended to get in the way of you two! Really!”
Liliana slid into a perfect dogeza on the floor.
I’ve seen two dogezas at this party already.
“…Hmph, it can’t be helped. Listen, Liliana-san, this is only this one time(・・・・), okay?”
“Eh!?”
“But there won’t be a next time.”
“Yes! Thank you! Thank you!”
What’s gotten into her?
For Sandra to allow Liliana the First Dance…
“Could this be the余裕(・・・・・) of a legitimate wife?”
“Whoa!?”
Monica suddenly appeared behind me and whispered in my ear.
“B-but, with the Dragon’s Favor active, is it really okay!?”
“It is indeed active, but she has been in this state often recently, so I believe Young Lady is becoming able to control her reason to some extent.”
“I-I see…”
Considering the future, it’s certainly good that she can control the Dragon’s Favor, but if it causes her to go berserk, it would be a disaster.
“S-so, that’s why, Hal-san! I got Sandra-san’s permission! Please dance with me!”
“Eh, eeh…”
I glanced at Sandra, and she nodded while trembling. It seems she’s really okay with it.
My will no longer exists in this place, and I’m just being swept along, forced to dance with Liliana.
So.
“Whoa!? S-sorry!”
“N-no, it’s okay…”
I led Liliana to the center of the hall, and we’re dancing the First Dance… but she’s stepped on my foot five times already, and I’m starting to lose feeling in my foot.
Besides, she’s probably buffing herself to dance better, right? Thanks to that, the power of each hit is incredible. It’s probably a good thing I’m her partner.
“I-I could have danced with other people, but since I’ve never danced before, you’re the only one who would forgive me for doing this…”
“A-haha…”
I can only give a wry smile to Liliana, who’s blushing and looking down.
In other words, she judged that it’s okay to inflict damage on me because I won’t be embarrassed, right? It’s frustrating, but she’s right.
“But,”
“Liliana?”
“I’m happy that my first dance is with Hal-san…”
…Isn’t that expression and line a foul?
I’m a sad prince who didn’t even make it as a Mob in “Galhaza,” you know? That face should be shown to the other capture targets.
More importantly, I already have a wife.
After that, I endured the pain of Liliana stepping on my feet and finally, the song ended.
Good job, my foot.
“Hal-san, thank you very much!”
“N-no, thank you too.”
I bowed in return to Liliana’s curtsy.
In the end, she seemed to have enjoyed it, so that’s good.
I took Liliana’s hand and returned to everyone.
“「「「「「…………………………」」」」」”
Cardis and Raphael had pale expressions. No, if I look closely, all the sons of the capture targets have similar faces.
Probably because they witnessed my foot being stabbed by her heels. Unexpectedly, it seems Liliana won’t be asked to dance anymore…
“Whoa!? S-Sandra!?”
“…Next is my turn.”
I was hugged tightly by Sandra, whose crimson eyes were gleaming, and forcibly dragged to the center.
Of course, after that, I desperately endured the pain in my foot and enjoyed dancing with Sandra.
By the way, the color of her eyes remained crimson.
