The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

The princess became similar.

In terms of peace, the Crown Prince’s office would be a more peaceful place than any other place in the Empire.

A simple glance at this place where the owner of this room, Mikhail’s taste, classical music is playing in a low sound, seems to be no different from usual.

“····.”

The expression on Mikhail, the owner of the office, was not very bright.

The slightly furrowed eyebrows and the twisted forehead in an odd shape all too well showed that he wasn’t in a good mood right now.

Anyone could easily recognize that the next emperor of the empire was not feeling well.

“········ So, why did you come all the way here and not say anything?”

“····.”

It was also possible to find the cause not too far away.

It was because a welcome (?) customer came to his office, where he would normally be working alone.

It wasn’t that the fact that a guest had arrived was a bad feeling.

As I said earlier, he usually solves his work alone, mostly alone.

The only people who came to visit were the maid who came to provide for his meal and Veronica, the head of the Imperial Knights.

Rather, it was something to welcome with both hands up that a guest had come to his office, which was rather boring.

“····.”

“Why don’t you try to say something?”

It was just that he didn’t like the fact that the guest, who had to make his boredom disappear, was still in the dark.

If you’re going to just stay like that, then why the hell did you have such a hard time coming here?

It wouldn’t have been easy to get here because of the royal servants blocking the way.

With his common sense, he couldn’t understand why he was doing nothing after breaking through the barrier so hard.

“Confucius Xernias?”

“····.”

A customer who maintains an immovable ignoring attitude as if he did not hear his subsequent prompts.

‘Oh, blood pressure.’

Now it was time to seriously consider whether to call that guest.

Obviously, he is the second most powerful person in the empire, so why is it that the people around him are always the bosses instead of him?

Even today, the name of the Crown Prince, who is ignored, broke his heart.

“I’ll bring you something to drink, so stay here.”

“····.”

what to do That all of this was his karma that seemed to be comfy to those around him.

-······The knight commander?

– Oh, what else do you need? Lowering.

– ···.

Even the knight commander Veronica, the servant who spends the most time with him right now, doesn’t openly ignore him.

Of course, this ignorance of Veronica didn’t happen from the beginning, but because he always called Veronica for useless things.

“Do you have any favorite drinks?”

“········I don’t care about anything.”

Anyway, today the second supreme ruler of the Empire was in a bad mood.

***

Mikhail’s absence did not last long.

The time now is less than 10 minutes after I told you to wait for a moment.

It was the part that made me realize just how much Mikhail hated to see me lost.

“·······I’m sorry, my lord.”

“…?”

“Didn’t I just come and cause you a nuisance?”

So I felt sorry for Mikhail.

As Mikhail said, at most, I was the one who came to a place that could not be easily reached, the Crown Prince’s office, and did nothing.

“I’m glad I did. To realize that he was doing a nuisance.”

“····.”

“Don’t make a face like that. There are more people in the world who don’t realize that they’re a nuisance. You should be proud of yourself.”

Of course, this feeling of guilt almost vanished very quickly with Mikhail’s characteristic way of annoying people.

Fortunately, before I lost all my guilt, Mikhail brought up the next topic of conversation.

“By the way, where did the person you’ve always been with go, and you’re the only one here?”

“If you’re the one who always sticks around…?”

“Your fiancee. Princess Rebecca.”

“····.”

Although the topic of conversation was only fatal to me.

For a moment, I forgot about it because of my guilt towards the Crown Prince.

Why did I even try to meet Mikhail while visiting the Crown Prince’s office, whom I had never been to before?

Why were you even looking for someone to give you advice?

It was only after Mikhail reminded him that he could recall.

“········It is strange.”

“Suddenly, out of the blue, something strange…”

“My fiancee…is strange.”

“······The Valencian girl?”

“Yes.”

Rebecca got weird.

That was the reason I came all the way here, and it was the reason I was desperately looking for someone to give me advice.

Because this was a problem that could not be solved by rolling your head alone.

-······ So, don’t get me wrong. It’s not because I like it either.

Rebecca’s words were still in my memory.

Along with that sweet voice, the touch I felt on my lips still remained in my memory.

They say that they don’t like it, and that they do it because they don’t like it.

Rebecca, who put her lips on mine while her face was dyed red, was still vivid in her memory.

At the time, I had no idea.

No, it would be correct to say that I didn’t think of it.

At that time, I was embarrassed by the unrealistic situation unfolding before my eyes, and it was difficult for me to accept that the situation was real.

My forehead was boiling from a bad cold, and my cheeks were red and hot.

On the lips, I was feeling again the touch that I had only experienced once in my life.

It hurts my mouth to explain how crazy I must have been in that situation.

-······ Now that all the colds have passed on to me. Don’t pretend to be sick.

– ···.

– If you pretend to be really sick, I won’t let you go.

So I couldn’t refute the orders that didn’t seem like Rebecca’s following orders.

If it were me, I would have tried to refute it, saying, ‘When did you pretend to be sick?’

In fact, I know that the words conveyed Rebecca’s wish that I didn’t get sick, so she would have been aiming for a counterattack by saying, ‘Do you hate me being sick that much?’

Maybe it’s because Rebecca’s pretty face, which cannot hide her blushing cheeks while giving the order not to pretend to be sick, is so deeply engraved.

At that time, I had no choice but to slowly nod my head as if possessed.

“…is that all?”

“It’s embarrassing, but yes.”

“····.”

The situation that followed that was the present situation.

Since broad daylight, Mikhail is trying to break into the office where he is working and ask for advice.

With my lack of brain, I couldn’t figure out what to do.

“.

Mikhail, who looked at me with a blank expression for a moment, opened his mouth with a tee he didn’t want to speak, as if he didn’t really want to open his mouth.

“But, I still don’t know what you want from me.”

“····.”

“If the story I’ve heard is correct, I think it’s the story of your fiancee kissing you to cure your cold.”

“······ Degradation, no matter how much, the expression that you are grinding…”

“Then, what kind of luxurious expression should I use to make you nod with satisfaction?”

No matter how much I think about it, I can’t come up with a better expression than this in my head.

I didn’t say it directly, but Mikhail’s expression was telling me that.

“····.”

When I thought about it again, there was no expression that suited the situation more than the expression ‘I’ve grinded’.

Because Rebecca’s action of putting her lips on me without a hint of a kiss was something anyone could say, ‘I’m ripped off.’

The only problem is that it came from the mouth of the Crown Prince, who should use the highest level of vocabulary in the Empire.

The word itself was the most appropriate word for the situation.

“I don’t know what to tell you.”

“····.”

“From what I’ve heard, it seems like it’s just a normal romantic act of lovers.”

“…that’s weird.”

“…?”

“There’s no way a princess would do something to me like a normal couple would do.”

“····.”

Mikhail looked at me like he was crazy, but he meant it.

There’s no way Rebecca can’t do normal lovers’ affection for me first.

It’s Rebecca who hasn’t fully realized her feelings yet, so she doesn’t want to be carried on her back.

It’s Rebecca, who blushed from embarrassment and didn’t know what to do even if she whispered a slightly unfamiliar sound.

Unless there has been a major change of heart, there is no way people can change so suddenly…

“······ah.”

“…and what’s going on again?”

Mikhail looking at me with an expression of disgust at my exclamation that came out of my mouth.

But, I didn’t have the energy to worry about it.

Because I realized why my fiancee’s behavior suddenly changed.

Because I realized why I suddenly turned into a ruthless person, and why I suddenly said I didn’t like it and then acted like that.

It was a typical behavioral pattern of a person who realized something.

It was a pattern of a person who realized something, but did not want to be found out by the person he was involved in.

.

It felt like my closed eyes were now open.

“Thank you, my dear.”

“…?”

Realizing what I needed to realize, I thanked Mikhail.

Although Mikhail was looking at me as if he didn’t know why I was saying thanks.

Because this realization was a realization that Mikhail would not have realized easily if he hadn’t listened to me.

Even if Mikhail didn’t understand, it was a thank you that he had to say.

“Well then, let’s go. My dear.”

“Wait a minute, did you just say you were going this way?”

“The next time I see you, it must be Princess Princess’s birthday.”

“·······It has already happened. I see. See you next time.”

He still had a look on his face that he didn’t like something, but Mikhail let me go more than I expected.

To be honest, I thought I would ask why did you come here if this was the case.

It seems that the future emperor is a much more broad-minded person than I thought.

“I think I just had some very impure thoughts.”

“You’re mistaken, my dear.”

“····.”

After one last sip of Mikhail’s own drink, I got up.

Maybe it’s because my head is full of thoughts of my fiancee who likes strawberries.

The strawberry flavor lingered in my mouth.
