[Well, well, it canât be helped. Her mother was just a lowly maid after all.]
[Ara, ara, thatâs true. That maid was a bold one, to be involved with His Majesty despite her social standing. Ufufu, as I thought, blood is indisputable right?]
[Like mother like daughter, it seems that the both of you are good at snatching away men with partners? Isnât it disgusting?]
Â
There were about 10 ladies who were giggling while holding their fans. Merrill was alone.
There was no one other than me nearby, while Merrill was isolated and helpless.
That said, a single girl came out ahead. Looking at her appearance, I then gaped.
Â
(E⊠Nora!? What are you doing!?)
Â
Her standing position was like the boss of the group, Nora had put Merrill in trouble.
Merrill was looking at the group with straight eyes. It was an appearance of a brave heroine.
Â
(What has she perpetrated about this time?)
Â
From a long time ago, Nora was angry at Merrill, but she did not take any direct action. I was sure that thereâs a reason why her patience had broken this time.
While I was wondering whether I should come out or not while I continued to peep, the young ladies continued.
Â
[Generally, youâre being insensitive! For Nora-sama who failed in finding a marriage interview, how could you possibly say something as terrible as âyou should have more self-confidenceâ.]
[I just wanted to encourage her, I wasnât insulting herâŠ]
[We donât want to hear such words from a person like you! Princess Merrill, what do you know about us? Not just Nora-sama, my fiancee has hurt my feelings by comparing me to you! The others here are also like thisâŠ]
[Even if you say so, I have not done anything!]
Â
After Merrillâs objection, the group of young ladies increased their momentum.
Â
[You seemed to have handed handmade refreshments to the knight order? The men were overjoyed.]
[The bureaucrats also received similar refreshments.]
[Among some disappointed nobles, Marlow-sama seems to disregard Merrill-sama and the queen⊠it seems that some stupid storied like that had come out.]
[Why donât you understand your social standing?]
Â
Merrillâs complexion was getting worse when she heard their words.
Â
[Such a thing, I just wanted to get along with everyone. Since they often take care of us in the castle, I just gave them refreshments as consideration.]
With Emirya here, she now had more composure, so itâs possible for her to think calmly.
Â
(Since sheâs a shy person in strange places, she could only take an unfriendly attitude in front of Prince Emirya.)
Â
By nature, Angela was a calm and intelligent princess unless her blood was rising to her head, and she also had kindness towards her friends.
In the manga, it seemed that her feelings were beyond her control and she got dyed with her evil deeds, but generally she behaved excellently. Itâs only because Marlow was too outstanding, so she was not evaluated so.
Â
I took Nora from the garden and led her to my room.
Â
[Britney, are you alright? Youâre really out of breath.]
[Iâm fine, Nora. This is also an exercise.]
Â
I struggled up the stairs and eventually reached my room.
