He seems to have fairly good facial features, but as a person used to Leon-sama, brother or Allen-kun, I don't find myself attracted to him.
And then, this feeling of looking down on people creates an unpleasant atmosphere.
"… Lillinsama!"
Apparently, his request left me numb as I didn't answer.
Certainly I can't just ignore him.
"I am sorry. It's been a long time since I've been to a party, and it seems I got drunk. I apologize, but I would like you to ask me for a dance on another opportunity."
Listening to my words, his expression changed.
What's with the look of aiming at his prey.
That's you know, the expression of someone who can't understand the difference of strength.
"Was that so? I apologize I haven't noticed. If you would like, I will show you to a vacant room. Would you like to rest a bit?"
So, he tried to guide me to a room.
… It's really an out.
His face is also disappointing.
"I apologize for troubling you, but I am fine. I will excuse myself now, I must go find my friends."
I didn't want to see his face anymore, so I quickly bid him farewell and tried to leave.
Then, his barely gentlemanly att.i.tude completely changed.
"… What's with that poor att.i.tude? I applied for marriage because your engagement with prince was broken off and there seemed to be no compet.i.tion, but I was ignored, and now this att.i.tude… Ah, what a bother! Never mind, come here! I'll be your special partner."
… Are you really a n.o.ble?
I was surprised by the sudden change.
He's trying to forcibly take me to a room because he dislikes my att.i.tude.
All right! Chance for a legitimate self-defense!
His hand stopped.
Rather, it was stopped.
There's a person standing behind the idiot… Two of them.
"Lillinsama, are you alright!" Allen-kun and Alek-sama
They seemed to have only then noticed each other and were a bit surprised.
By the way, the idiot whose hands were held down by two people was suffering in agony.
I'm certain they're twisted.
"Thank you both of you. However, I think it will be hard for you if you both keep twisting… Isn't it better if you let go?"
"Haha, Lillinsama is so kind. Now what to do with this guy…"
"That's right, Lillinsama is too gentle after all. You can leave this place without a worry. I will hand him over to the unit from chivalric order. I'm sure they'll gently escort him."
Having said that, he made an eye signal to a person nearby.
Then the crowd of about five people appeared.
Looking closely, those are the knights that recently came to our territory.
They surrounded the idiot and took him away.
Hmm, aren't those the five whose vision of 'Lillinsama corps' I crushed?
"Lillinsama, I am sorry for not being at your side!"
"Allen's not at fault. Because Allen also had a hard time, right? You were taken by ladies as soon as we arrived."
"Aah~, honestly why are you so powerful? There's no reason to care about such me…"
Aren-kun said so, but today's Aren-kun is wonderful.
He normally doesn't like to dress up and wears simple clothes, but today he's dressed for a party.
He looks like a prince from somewhere.
Young ladies are weak to such beauty and covet him.
"Lillinsama, are you hurt anywhere? I am sorry you had to listen to such abuse because my help was late. Rest a.s.sured, chivalric order will a.s.sume responsibility for his disposal."
For some reason the last thing was said with a nice smile. Alek-sama still has good character, right?
Today's Alek-sama's not in the uniform of chivalric order, but is dressed to party spec.
"Alek-sama, are you partic.i.p.ating as a duke today?"
"Yes, publicly. However, as you have seen, to blend in some of my subordinates are not in knight uniform, so they can move freely whenever something happens. Work is more than half the reason why I am here"
"By the way, I don’t see elder brother… Where is he?"
Alek-sama said with a bitter smile.
"About captain… Look, over there."
When I looked to where Alek-sama pointed…
And that? Are my eyes deceiving me?
I looked again after rubbing my eyes.
Still, it's not my eyes that are strange, the reality itself is.
Wha, what. Brother is surrounded by three women!!
"Huh? Brother is… talking with young ladies?"
"Hee, you look as if you can't believe it. Captain usually doesn't partic.i.p.ate in parties, instead opting to guard in the uniform, but look, today he's not in one, right? If he does that, unexpectedly he becomes popular."
Gaaah!
For the first time, I realized.
That's right, because brother's always been in the uniform, young ladies have never spoken to him.
Weell, isn't brother popular~~.
… I'm telling Sana.
I can't forgive talking with other ladies while Sana is staying home.
