Chapter 64: It’s Possible Now, Princess Carry

<hr>

 

The men were taken away by the soldiers called by the crown prince.

Before I knew it, he had already contacted a soldier.

If it’s the crown prince, their punishment wouldn’t be too harsh.

I’d like to relax but I still had a problem. Angela found out my identity.

 

[You, just now, you’re called Britney? By any chance, are you Britney of Hakusu Earldom… it’s not possible. If it’s that girl, I’ll know just by looking.]

 

It seemed that Angela’s words were because of Britney’s obesity.

While thinking those words, Ricardo walked to face the princess and opened his mouth. He seemed dissatisfied.

 

[This woman is Britney… so what?]

 

At the time Ricardo said so, Prince Marlow took my mask from my face.

 

[Britney, do you like this mask so much? I’m glad that you like my creation… but if you go out of the castle wearing it, you’ll be noticeable.]

[Ee, that, that’s right… gufu, gufufu.]

 

By no means I could say that I was afraid of Angela finding out my true identity.

The princess stared at my exposed face.

 

[You must be lying right? Are you really Britney?]

[…Gu, gufufu. It’s been a long time.]

[Really, really!?]

[Ye, yes.]

 

From the reactions of Ricardo, Nora and Prince Marlow, she would have understood that I was not lying.

Angela suddenly took my arm.

 

[I have something to tell you! I tried to call you many times, but onii-sama and the northern earl always hindered me…]

[N…?]

 

What did she mean by calling?

Besides, it seemed that the crown prince and Ryuze obstructed her many time without me knowing it.

 

[Anyway, come with me!]

 

My body leaned forwards when Angela forcefully pulled me.

 

[Wawa…?]

 

Since one of my shoe heels was broken, I braced my legs so that I wouldn’t fall.

 

(This is bad, if this continues, I’ll fall!)

 

It was Ricardo who was closest to me that supported me when I was about to fall.

 

[Are you alright Britney?]

[Ee, thank you, Ricardo.]

 

While supporting me, Ricardo pointed towards Angela.

 

[I apologize, Your Highness. Britney seems a bit tired. As you can see, her shoe heel is broken… isn’t it possible to meet again at a later date?]

[…Tha, that’s true. After taking down two men, of course she needs rest. Very well, we’ll meet again later.]

[Thank you for your thoughtfulness.]

 

I defeated two men… Ricardo looked at me with a startled expression.

But somehow, I was protected by him again.

 

[Prince Marlow, I shall send Britney to her place of stay.]

[Very well. I shall deal with the two men.]

 

After saying so, Prince Marlow gazed at Angela sternly.

Originally, there’s no need for the crown prince to be involved with their punishment. He had a responsibility since this occurred at an event that he hosted, but it was mostly to supervise Angela.

He was wary of Angela’s excessive punishments.

Although they were brother and sister, their relationship was strained at best.

 

[Britney, you will be staying at the capital city for the next few days right? I want you to not just meet Angela, but to also come visit me… can you wait for my messenger?]

 

It was difficult to refuse both the crown prince’s and princess’ invitations.

 

[Ye, yes. Certainly…]

 

Hearing my reply, Ricardo looked at me with a difficult expression.

 

[Well then, excuse us.]

 

Ricardo bowed towards the crown prince and princess.

He looked at me, and told me, who was hesitating on whether to take off my broken footwear or not, to not take it off.

 

[But, it’s hard to walk.]

[No problem, it’s just for a while.]

[E…?]

 

The moment I heard his reply, I was lifted up. Ricardo was princess carrying me…!

The moment I processed the situation, blood gathered to my face and my face became hot.

Behind us, Nora embarrassedly exclaimed “kyaa, it’s a princess carry” while covering her face. However, she was peeking from the gap between her fingers.\n 

(…Nora, it’s completely visible.)

 

Ricardo who lifted me amazedly looked at my friend.

I was shaken up by this unfamiliar position, so I stretched my arms to hold something in a hurry to support my body.

After clinging onto it, I came back to my senses and regretted it.

I had circled my arms around Ricardo’s neck and it looked like I was hugging him.

Ricardo also seemed to be stunned by my eccentricity; he was dyed red from his neck to his face.

 

[So, sorry, Ricardo…! I, I…]

[No, I don’t mind. If you’re scared, then keep clinging. It would be safer.]

 

Ricardo, whose eyes were swimming due to the awkwardness of the situation, started walking towards the exit of the castle.

Behind us, Nora walked with us while covering her face and screeching “so well-matched”.
