Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! Chapter 162

n.o.bles' Circ.u.mstances

I've arrived at the party venue… called the Royal Palace now.
In a sense it's amazing, I've been invited to the royal castles of three counties: mine, Western, and Northern.
I'm supposed to be only margrave's daughter though.

Well, looking around I'm more restless than I expected.
I was supposed to have resolved myself… But, I'm in the middle of reflecting that it wasn't enough.
My, Allen-kun's, Ange-san's, Sasuke-san's eyes turned into dots.

First of all, is this really the party venue where n.o.bles have gathered?
No, I guess it is… But, I need to make sure no matter what.
We all look like kids here.
Because everyone is tall.
It's not that I'm short, but there's n.o.body shorter than me.

And as grandmother said, women's dresses, is it okay for them to show so much skin?
Their appearances seriously make me want to ask some questions.
I'm certain underwear could be seen… No, I think it's already visible.

More than anything, everyone has honestly wonderful muscles.
There's no choice but to say they're trained.
Men are tall and st.u.r.dy, but because women are wearing revealing clothes, gazes inevitably move to them…
Allen-kun has already been bright red for a long time.
Sasuke-san is… pretending not to, but sure thing, he is looking.
Ange-san, who noticed, tried to step on his foot with all her might, but was avoided.
You should get stepped on.

"Well, shall we go greet the king first."

Granduncle brought us to the king.
On the way, I could feel excessive gazes of people grandmother's age.
I'm too scared to look.
Grandmother spoke to me in a quiet voice, did she understand what I was thinking?

'Lillina, rest a.s.sured, they won't approach us until we greet the king. However, once the greeting is over… Please prepare yourself.'

Be prepared… No no, it's impossible.
In that case, after the greeting I should quietly avoid them.
With such resolution in my heart, I came in front of the king.

"Fairy Princess!"

He called grandmother in a loud voice, obviously that person is the king.
Next to him is a person who appears to be the queen.
The king vigorously stood up from his seat and tried to come towards grandmother.
But, he wasn't able to.
The reason being, the person who appears to be the queen settled it with a splendid roundhouse kick.
Of course, the king collapsed right on the spot.
Honestly, it should be quite an unusual situation, yet n.o.body made a fuss.

When the king stood up on his own, as if nothing happened he complained… that wasn't the case,

"Hmm, what a spending roundhouse kick. You truly are my queen!"

he praised the queen.
What… I, Sasuke-san, and the twins were quite shaken.
The queen who performed a roundhouse kick, ignored the king and approached grandmother.
W, what should I do if grandmother gets attacked.
Such an idea ended up being a needless worry.

"Leafia! It's been a long time. You're as slender as ever~."

"Fufu, it's been a long time. Your kick is as sharp as ever. As expected of you."

Grandmother and the queen chatted friendlily.
On the side the king is desperate trying to somehow step in, but the queen's defenses are impregnable.
Grandfather is laughing at his appearance without reservation.
What's with this chaotic s.p.a.ce.

"Hey… What are you laughing at."

The king, who can't oppose grandmother and the queen, snapped at grandfather.
Grandfather seems to be having fun with his opponent.

"I'm laughing because it was funny. It seems you're no match for the queen as ever."

"Hmph! It's natural that my queen is strong. At any rate, you're as always drawn to Fairy Princess's rear."

Somehow it doesn't seem like a friendly talk.
Grandfather seems to be messing with the king.
I wonder if it's alright.

When grandmother's and the queen's talk ended, they came towards us.

"Err… You are Leafia's granddaughter, right? Fufu, you resemble Leafia in her youth. But, I wonder if only the appearance is similar?"

"Ara, you're wrong. Lillina is, ah, she's called Lillina, is also strong. Friends who are with her are also excellent. They're planning to enter as general entries in the tournament."

Eh? Grandmother, has our partic.i.p.ation already been decided?
It seems something conspicuous was said…
Their talk continued without regards for my feelings.

"It will be fun. I wonder if she'll be the second coming of Fairy Princess? Today's youth don't know of Fairy Princess's existence, I wonder if the tournament will be exhilarating. Of course, our generation will be excited for a different reason."

Saying so, the queen looked around.
Before I realized, people of grandfather's and grandmother's generation have gathered.
I, I'm scared~, these pa.s.sionate gazes are frightening.
