After hearing his name called Ricardo stopped in a place with few people and opened his mouth.
āOmaeā¦ what horrible things were you allowing them to say to you?ā (TLN: Omae = rude/forceful way to say āyou.ā Ricardo often uses Omae.)
Heās probably talking about the man from before. However, that doesnāt mean that I was going to take that abuse silently.
āYou butted in before I was able to talk back.ā
āā¦ I see.ā
āBut, thank you for protecting me. I didnāt have any allies in that place, so you saved me. Before I knew it, Ryuze-oniisama was a little ways away from me and men I didnāt know had surrounded me and started to abuse me. What a harsh situationā¦ā
Although Iāve become somewhat resistant to the pig treatment, I donāt want to be one-sidedly spoken ill of.
āI think the other side already knew of you.ā
At Ricardoās words, I inclined my neck which had become a little thinner than before.
āā¦ What do you mean?ā
āThat guy was the eldest son of Viscount Danā¦ do you follow me?ā
I felt dejected hearing that name.
It was a very familiar one.
āā¦ Itās my first time meeting him, but thatās the son of the house my father eloped with.ā (TLN: Britneyās step-brother.)
I remembered a story I heard during my childhoodā¦ It seems my fatherās elopement partner was the mother of that quarrelsome man from before.
Honestly, it makes me want to ask what heās jealous of.
āSince your figure stands out, it seems he decided to quarrel with you there. I hear that your father and his second wifeās relationship isnāt going smoothly.ā
Nevertheless, if you complain to his daughter, me, I will be troubled.
āI will start looking into the circumstances of other houses.ā
āI heard of it by chance. Nevertheless, if you come to a place like this, you need to research the circumstances of the other houses a little more. Ryuze is an expert at this, so you should ask him.ā
āI, is that soā¦ Un, Iāll do my best.ā
Certainly, I had a feeling Ryuze knows a lot. I donāt want to make an excessive amount of enemies.
āBeyond thatā¦ Since you have lost both your parents, you probably donāt need to worry too much about the curious stares you get.ā
Suddenly looking to the side, Ricardo said that with a brusque tone.
After all, Ricardo appears to have a shy personality.
(But, compared to when I was told āI hate you,ā this is a positive changeā¦ Good boy~.)
The other side may have originally hated me, but now I see him in a similar light as Ryan and Maria.
ā»
After that, I accompanied my cousin Ryuze and exchanged greetings with the other participants.
(Onii-sama, I wish you moved a little earlier. Had you done so, I wouldnāt have gotten involved with a strange guy.)
Ricardo had promptly reported the abuse from the viscountās son to Ryuze. I saw a terrifying auraā¦
As I was thinking that and walking around with Ryuze, the entire venue suddenly fell into commotion. The crown prince Marlow arrived.
And, behind him, with straight, perfectly done-up hair and wearing frilly deep pink clothingā¦
(Sheās here! Angelaās here!)
The shoujo mangaās villainess arrived.
Itās my first time seeing her since arriving in this world, but comparing her to crown prince Marlow, she has a considerably plain face.
Each part was somewhat small, and she wasnāt very tall. Because her hair is the same pale blond as the crown princeās, the differences between them become all the more striking.
(This isā¦ unpleasant I suppose.)
Every time thereās an event, if she is compared like this to her beautiful older brother the crown prince, her personality will become more and more warped. This will occur even more so once her younger sister of the same sex Merrill arrives.
I as well when going around with Ryuze was looked at with eyes like āsheās Ryuzeās cousin and yetā¦ā I received a little shock.
As part of the royal family, I have no doubt she is under a lot of stress being exposed to the eyes of people on a daily basis.
(ā¦ I mean, I sympathize with Angela. However, the princess who makes all her maids Kuroko is not normal!)
Moreover, just like Nora with her dress, her dark pink dress does not suit her at all!
In Angelaās case, the dress is too glamorous and showy that her existence itself was drowned out. Her current state is a perfect example of the clothes wearing her, rather than her wearing the clothes.
Angela was primly standing behind the crown prince Marlow, but most of the guestās eyes were firmly concentrated on her older brother the prince.
Her violet eyes held a weak presence and were merely directed forwards without showing any emotion.

Translatorās Corner:
Angela is here! It seems sheās had a hard life, getting compared to her older brother since she was born. Poor girl, I hope Britney can do something for her (without going down the destruction path).
