Chapter 60:Â Frog Mask and Squirrel Mask
<hr>
Â
[What to do, Britney? It seems that sheâs looking for you.]
Â
Nora lowly whispered so to me, but I decided to avoid it.
Anyway, I would receive a summon later.
Â
[Iâm going to greet His Highness Prince Marlow first. If I get caught by the princess, I may not get released.]
Â
While saying such, I approached the person wearing frog mask to greet him.
As I thought, heâs the crown prince.
Weaving my way between people, I got close to him with Nora.
When I came near the crown prince to give my greetings, Ricardo noticed me first. I was walking while talking with Nora, so perhaps he knew it from my voice.
Â
[Britney and Miss Nora right?]
[Un. Youâre Ricardo are you not? Your squirrel mask is cute.]
[Donât say that⊠since the masks are distributed randomly, this is not my preference.]
Â
While talking to Ricardo, Prince Marlow also reacted.
Â
[Britney? Youâre really Britney! Long time no see, I wanted to meet you!]
[Yes, itâs been a long time, Your Highness. You seem healthy as usual.]
[Aa, Iâm glad you came! What do you think of the masks? I designed everything myself.]
[Truly, Your Highness has excellent taste in arts.]
Â
I thought that the designing of the masks was skillful enough to make craftsmen embarrassed.
He seemed to see no point in talking about my figure.
Â
[Today, even though itâs a masked party, itâs a carefree gathering held at noon. Itâs been explained that itâs not particularly difficult and itâs informal.]
[Your Highness, why do you choose the frog mask?]
[N, I think itâs cute? I think that its round eyes are satisfactory workmanship.]
[âŠE, ee, thatâs true.]
[I think that Britneyâs mask is also charming. While Ricardoâs mask resemble himself.]
Â
Certainly, Ricardo was an upright and sweet person⊠though the person in question rejected that line of thought.
Â
[Which, which part of me resemble a squirrelâŠ!?]
[That right there, Ricardo. That is also your strength, you can be proud of it.]
Â
Ricardo couldnât argue against the crown princeâs words. His Highness the crown prince had a distinctive sensibility, but apart from that, he had a charm that naturally attraced people.
While I felt resentment towards my loose-tongued cousin, a bomb was dropped by him.
Fortunately, the surrounding participants seemed to think that itâs his usual joke, and he himself did not show any reaction in particular.
Â
[To a countryside lady like me, the load is too heavy, gufufu.]
Â
Here also, I replied with a joke.
Â
(Eh, thatâs weird. Even though I lost weight, the way I laugh hasnât changed.)
Â
Whether it was because of the power of the original manga or not, I couldnât laugh cutely like âufufuâ.
Â
[Hahaha, I thought that if itâs someone excellent like Britney then there will be no problem. Maa, letâs leave that story for later. I have a job of walking around the venue, so Iâll leave you to Ricardo.]
Â
The frog mask wearing crown prince, with his swaying light gold hair, easily left.
Â
[Really, such a my own pace person.]
Â
I agreed with Ricardoâs impression. The crown prince Marlowâs character was indeed quite peculiar.
Â
[Ricardo, do you get along well with His Highness?]
[Aa. In the past, I was introduced through Ryuze, and weâve been getting along since I came to the capital city.]
Â
That felt like a highway towards becoming his follower.
Ricardo would play an active role in the capital city according to the original manga.

TN: Personally I ship Britney with the prince. She deserves to be the queen.
