“Whoa!?”
“Sandra! It’s been so long!”
Pushing me aside and taking Sandra’s hand was the First Princess of the Capetien Kingdom, characterized by her drill-like hair resembling a chocolate cornet.
Lisette Josephine de Capetien… it was Lize, my close friend.
Seriously, I’m a close friend too, so isn’t this treatment a bit harsh?
“Lize, I’m happy to see you. I look forward to working with you for the next three years.”
“Y-yes! Of course!”
The two rekindled their old friendship, smiling at each other.
Am I completely out of the loop here or what?
“By the way, when did Lize arrive in this country? If you had contacted us in advance, we could have made appropriate preparations…”
“Oh, no need for that. I hate such troublesome things.”
Lize produced a feathered fan from nowhere, hid her mouth, and giggled.
Seriously, Lize’s study abroad is also for the sake of friendship between Dehauvalz and Capetien, and if something happens along the way, it’ll become a diplomatic issue.
“Speaking of which, how is the Capetien Kingdom doing since then?”
“Fufu, of course, it’s peaceful. The people all support Eline.”
According to Lize, after the coup d’état by Jean, there was some confusion due to the purge of the nobles who participated, but now things have calmed down.
On the contrary, Eline, who took command of the suppression of the rebellion (or so it is said), is enjoying immense popularity for rectifying the injustices within her own family.
“That’s why I’m finally free, and as promised, I’ve come here alone to join you.”
“From now on, please absolutely don’t do things like that!?”
I’m putting a nail in it just in case, but I’m sure it’s no use…
“More importantly, let’s go quickly! …But where should we go?”
“Ah, haha…”
Somehow, I’m worried about the next three years, but I’ve decided to give up.
Both Sandra and I look at Lize and give a wry smile.
At that moment.
“Ufufu… It’s been a while, Prince Harold, Lady Alexandra.”
Appearing with a smile was Christia Salerno, the Saint of the Barthian Holy Kingdom.
Behind her, of course, was Carla Delminio, the Holy Knight.
However.
“Umm… yes, it’s been a while. But, I haven’t heard anything about the two of you entering the Kingdom…”
“I asked Minister Olson through the Holy Kingdom, and we will be entering the Royal Academy while concealing our identities.”
“I-is that so…”
I don’t know what her intentions are, but knowing Christia, I’m sure she’s not thinking of anything good.
Besides, I can already see Wilfred finding out about it and her identity being exposed immediately…
“Prince Harold, I’m truly sorry…”
“N-no, no, don’t worry about it…”
Seeing Carla apologizing with her shoulders drooping, I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.
She’s also being messed with by Christia. She seems to be having a hard time…
“More importantly, Lady Carla. I’ve gotten stronger since then.”
“Ah… fufu, me too. Then, it seems we can cross swords and Shields to our heart’s content for the next three years.”
Carla and I shook hands and smiled at each other.
From now on, let’s have a rematch of that day that was glossed over because of Cardis, as many times as we want.
“Muu… Hal, who are these two?”
Oops, Lize has gotten sulky.
“This is Lady Christia, the Saint of the Barthian Holy Kingdom. And this is Lady Carla, who serves as the Saint’s guard.”
“Ufufu, nice to meet you.”
“Nice to meet you.”
Christia curtsied with her right hand on her chest, and Carla gave a knight’s salute.
“And this drill-haired person is Princess Lisette of the Capetien Kingdom.”
“Wait, what does ‘drill’ even mean!?”
That’s right. Drills don’t exist in this world.
But chocolate cornets don’t appear in EnHaza either, so how should I explain it? Or rather, Lize is going to get super angry the moment I explain it.
“Well, let’s hurry up or we’ll be late for the entrance ceremony.”
“W-wait! Explain it to me properly!”
Ignoring the furious Lize for now, we head to the auditorium where the entrance ceremony will be held…!?
—Thud.
“Eek!?”
“Whoa!?”
We collided with great force, and the female student fell to the ground.
“Ouch…”
“A-are you alright…!?”
I hurriedly tried to offer my right hand, but when I saw the girl who had gotten up, I couldn’t help but freeze.
Because.
“N-no! I’m alright!”
She was Liliana Abbott, the female protagonist of “Engage Hazard ~girls side~”.
