The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

The princess was drunk.

Rebecca’s appearance as she got closer was much more serious than when she saw it from afar.

“······swimming.”

“····.”

Totally drunk with no excuses.

Her face was flushed bright red, which was worse than what the princess usually looked like when she was shy.

The slight trembling of her legs was a clear indication that Rebecca was not in her normal condition.

It was surprising how much alcohol a person had to drink to reach this level.

“…how did it happen?”

I couldn’t understand the situation at all, so I asked Mikhail next to me.

Under the laws of the Empire, anyone who could not hold a coming-of-age ceremony would be forbidden to drink alcohol alone.

What was the human being, the crown prince of this country, doing while the princess was drinking alcohol, who hadn’t even had her coming-of-age ceremony?

“······· I have nothing to say. It’s my fault.”

Mikhail cleanly admits that it is her fault.

It was on my side that I was at a loss for words after admitting my mistake so proudly.

“The Princess of Valencia was alone, so I talked to her a little, but I never imagined that the drink she brought with her because she was thirsty would be alcohol.”

“····.”

“Don’t look at me like that. I’m also a victim in a way.”

It’s true that I’ve only heard of that and have only now confirmed it.

The prince’s face was also slightly reddened. It was a typical slightly drunken face.

Judging from the circumstances revealed, it was clear that Mikhail also drank the alcohol Rebecca had brought without hesitation.

“·······Sorry. Degradation.”

It was mine, not Mikhail, who had to apologize.

If you look at the current situation, the Crown Prince only listened to Rebecca, who was alone, and drank the drink Rebecca gave her without much thought.

The reason that the coming-of-age ceremony could not be held at this point is not only me and the princess, but also Mikhail.

The real victim was Mikhail.

“No, I said it before, but it’s also my fault that I took it without even thinking about it. Please don’t apologize.”

Fortunately, the Crown Prince waved his hand saying there was no need to apologize to me.

I was finally able to breathe a small sigh of relief.

To make the only prince of the empire, who should inherit the throne, drink alcohol. Is it possible to have a bigger accident than this?

‘·······It is possible.’

It was probably impossible.

Even this alone was already an absurd accident.

However, it was unavoidable to feel anxious.

“Maybe the princess said something disrespectful to the Crown Prince…”

I asked Mikhail carefully.

“It’s not even a day or two for the Princess of Valencia to be rude to me.

“····.”

Unfortunately, I was able to confirm that my ominous thinking was correct to some extent.

The mischief princess seems to have had a much bigger accident than I thought.

Always ominous predictions were never wrong.

“Uh, bad boy.”

“····.”

Rebecca, who had been sober up until recently, had just found me.

“A bad boy who deserts his fiance and runs away from the banquet hall.”

Seeing you spit out words that just make you sigh.

“······ Guess I have to apologize again. I’m sorry.”

Mikhail also seemed to be in the same situation as this was absurd.

I even helped the princess who was alone while drinking unplanned alcohol.

It’s not enough to be disrespectful to yourself, and even to the fiance you brought with you, you’re saying things like that.

It was easy to imagine how ridiculous it would be.

“There is a rest room where guests can check their condition, and I think it would be better to take the princess to there.”

“······Is that true.”

“Of course, valet!”

Mikhail’s low but audible cry rang out from afar.

“Did you call me?”

Hearing the call, a figure who appeared to be the chief of staff approached us.

“I will guide these guests to the empty break room.”

“All right.”

“·············Thank you, my dear.”

All I could say was thank you very much.

From the Crown Prince’s point of view, it must have been a situation no different from a sudden lightning strike.

Instead of blaming Rebecca for making him drink, he showed me and the princess a break room where they could take a break.

I felt like I had to sort out the past when I thought badly of Mikhail, the main character, while reading the original work.

“If you feel grateful, I will reduce the amount of compensation to be sent to the Counts of Xernias and the Dukes of Valencia.”

“····.”

Until I hear the most abhorrent words in the world.

Mikhail was proud to say that if he thanked him, he would reduce the reward.

“Are there any complaints?”

“····.”

The prince was still a prince even though he was intoxicated.

***

“This is it.”

“Thanks for the guidance.”

“A few words. Please feel free to use it and return.”

The lounge we arrived at under the guidance of the chieftain was much larger than we expected.

This is not a break room, but a level that is no different from a normal noble’s room.

As long as the meals were provided on time, it would seem that there would be no problem in life.

“········hey.”

Once, Rebecca, who was still unconscious from drunkenness, was laid on the bed.

Somehow, he succeeded in helping the princess to come to the break room, but the problem remained.

“········What to do.”

The question of what to do with the drunken princess who is properly stretched out on the bed.

At first, I thought I should call the Duchess of Valencia or the Duke of Valencia.

The banquet wasn’t over yet to bring Rebecca’s parents to this place.

– Are you Rebecca? Is that real, Confucius?

– ···.

– Where is it? Say it right now.

Because if the Duchess of Valencia, who likes to tease her daughter more than anyone else, hears this news, it seems that there will be a dark history of her fiancee that will never disappear.

“·······That’s a little bit.”

The first method was withheld even for Rebecca’s sake.

When the first method failed due to a realistic (?) problem, I started to come up with another method.

So I came up with a second method.

It was to find various hangover remedies to be provided in the break room.

This isn’t the first time an imperial banquet has been held, and it’s probably not the first time something like Rebecca has been held.

Obviously, there must have been cases where other nobles also drank a lot and came to the break room to rest.

There was no way that the Imperial Palace, which had to be thoroughly prepared at all times, had not prepared for such people.

“Is this?”

As I expected, there were more hangover remedies than I expected in the cupboard in the break room.

My parents, Count Xernias, also liked to drink, so most of them were things I had seen a few times.

I picked one that seemed most familiar, and brought it to Rebecca along with some cold water to calm her down.

“············uh.”

Until I returned to find something to help the princess, she was unconscious and collapsed.

In contrast to the dignified Duke Young-ae, who always maintained a neat appearance, Rebecca’s disheveled appearance.

“················································ sides.

I tried to hold it in, but laughter broke out.

It is true that I expected that I would be able to see a side of Rebecca that I had never seen before.

I never dared to expect to see such a disorganized appearance.

Perhaps other readers of [The Prince Holds a Sword], like me, would never have imagined that Princess Munchkin would look like this.

To that ‘Rebecca Valencia’ who was always perfect in every aspect and made me feel like a robot rather than a human.

How would you expect to see such a cute, loose-fitting cat like this?

Was it because my laughter was too loud?

“What are you laughing at?”

Rebecca, who was lying down, asked me sensitively, “What are you laughing at?”

In a state that still looked very vague as if he had not been able to drive out the drunkenness.

“Leaving my fiancée alone… having a banquet alone… What’s funny?”

“···········I did not particularly enjoy it.”

It was true.

Because I didn’t know anyone, I was celebrating the banquet food by myself until Isabella Bluebell suddenly came.

The princess’s words that I enjoyed the banquet didn’t make sense.

“It’s something you didn’t enjoy. I saw you having a good conversation with Bluebell’s young girl…”

“Do you know Bluebell Girl?”

I was more surprised that Rebecca knew Isabella than that Rebecca had seen me talking to her.

According to the original story, Rebecca and Isabella, the daughters of the duke, must have met for the first time today.

I was afraid to even think about how much the flow of the original was broken.

“It’s strange that you don’t know. Bluebell… The Duke’s Daughter.”

“I didn’t know that the princess was interested in other noble families.”

“How much did I study… how much?”

Rebecca pouts her lips as if she’s pouting when she hears me.

I couldn’t tell if it was that I, my fiancée, was upset that I didn’t recognize my fiancée’s efforts, or that I was upset that I left myself alone and talked to another woman.

“Anyway… don’t turn around.”

“····.”

This one thing was certain.

“What… did you… did you say? Bluebell… with a young girl.”

That my fiancee, who was very drunk, is obsessed with me.

that you are asking me for an answer.

And I feel like I’ve been through this situation.

It was an undeniable fact.
