Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! Chapter 61

The next night after the party Sana said…

"Lillinsama, have I overdone it?"

I'm stunned.
Is it about yesterday's justified verbal abuse against him? And the decision to finish it off with a single strike to his solar plexus.

"Sana's not at fault. No matter how you look at it, it's onii-sama's bad. I'd rather compliment you on not using the whip on him."

She giggled after hearing my words.
Yeah, Sana's smile is number 1.
Sana who was deprived of her smile by brother won't do!

"By the way Sana, is father here?"

"Yes, master should have a day off today. I think he will be in his room."

I see~, a day off?
In that case, having a little talk should be fine, right?
Still, Leon-sama's fiancée is on my mind, not only out of sheer curiosity.

I decided to visit father's room.

When I knocked on the door to his room, I heard the voice saying I can enter.
I said "Excuse me" and entered.

"Oh, Lillina. What's the matter?"

"I apologize for bothering you on your day off. Actually, it's about yesterday"

Listening to my words, father showed an exhausted face.
You certainly have lots of troubles, father.

"About yesterday… It's about Prince Leon's engagement announcement. I'm sorry I kept it from Lillina. Only a small number of people in this country were informed. Of course, it was also kept from Prince Leon, who would certainly cause trouble."

It's a given you're going to cause problems, Leon-sama.
That part of you doesn't change even if you lose your memory…

"When was it decided? The engagement between Leon-sama and Princess Sumire."

"Yeah, well… The engagement story was from the time when you were prince's fiancée. But Prince Leon would not take concubine, as he held feelings for Lillina, besides the other country was not satisfied with the position of concubine. Furthermore, there was a problem of prince being bad with women. However, with your engagement disappearing and the loss of memory softening his phobia, it was settled at once."

It was a mistake that I became Leon-sama's fiancée in the first place.
I'm sorry, Leon-sama.

"So that's how it is. By the way, Sumire-sama looked younger than me, but how old is she?"

Father said with a wry smile.

"Oh, she looks pretty young, but rest a.s.sured. Princess Sumire is 18 years old. She's older than you."

Wha, what!
Even though I thought she was younger than me.
I see… I'm glad Leon-sama won't be suspected of being into little girls~.

"Um, did Leon-sama eventually speak to Sumire-sama? Apparently, he was caught by the knights before the engagement announcement"

"No, those two haven't talked yet. However, as the engagement was already announced, Prince Leon won't be able to escape anymore. Well, there will be considerable resistance."

"Perhaps, was the matter with Sumire-sama decided as he lost his memory, before having me meet him?"

"… Ah, the engagement talks advanced when his memory didn't return after meeting Lillina. It's a shame about the result. But since his memories didn't return upon meeting you, it's unlikely they will from now on. The hope is his phobia of women won't return either."

As a result of meeting me, Leon-sama got engaged with Sumire-sama.
Somehow, it sounds complicated~.

After finis.h.i.+ng talking with my father, I spent time in my room with Allen-kun, Ange-sama, and Sana.

"Even so, to use Lillinsama as a tool to return memories… It was better to rampage once after all" said Allen-kun.

"That's right~, what do they mean by calling Lillinoneesama all the way for this? I don't want to use them much, but I think we should retaliate using that team of knights." said Ange-sama.

Don't those twins' proposals get more dangerous with each day?
Then Sana said with a smile.

"But, with this you can escape from Prince Leon"

Yeah, I guess so.
With this, the opportunity to meet with Leon-sama is gone.
Somehow, I wish for Leon-sama to also be happy.

"Well then, with this we can return to your territory. Lillinsama, when will you be leaving?"

Allen-kun seems to be enthusiastic about going home soon.
Well, there's no point in staying here.
It's troublesome if more strange things, like those at the party, happen.

Sebastian came to my room while we were talking about leaving.

"Lillinsama, a letter for you has arrived."

The letter that Sebastian gave me… Ah~~ it smells of trouble.
The sender is Rachel-sama.
I like Rachel-sama.
But the letter this time… is a bit.
It's a letter that absolutely carried a problem.
