“Your Highness Harold, thank you for your hard work.” (Monica)
After finishing the meeting with King Salomon and exiting the audience chamber, Monica, who had been waiting, greeted me.
“Phew… As a result of the discussion with King Salomon, Lizette will be accompanying us to the Dehaubalz Kingdom.” (Harold)
“That is…” (Monica)
“Well, it’s under the pretext of studying abroad at the Royal Academy. Until then, she will have the chance to familiarize herself with our country.” (Harold)
Letting out a deep breath, I explained the contents of the meeting to Monica. Since we would now be taking care of her as a state guest, it might cause some trouble for Monica, my personal maid.
“So, how did things go on your end?” (Harold)
“Yes. As you predicted, Jean and the captain of the guard made contact.” (Monica)
“I knew it…” (Harold)
Since this morning, I had asked Monica to act separately and keep an eye on Jean’s movements. Of course, this was because I suspected his allies would make contact after last night’s incident. As expected, it was confirmed that the suspicious captain of the knights was connected, and I was satisfied with that.
“This means Jean has likely entrusted future plans to the captain of the knights. They will probably begin moving toward a coup.” (Harold)
Jean will want to avoid further suspicion, so even if we keep an eye on him, no one else will approach. Instead, keeping a close watch on the captain will allow us to grasp their future movements.
“I feel bad for always asking you to handle such troublesome things, but—!?” (Harold)
“Please, don’t say such things. Besides, I’ll make sure to charge extra for all my hard work.” (Monica)
Monica pressed her index finger against my lips, and although she rarely showed much expression, she gave me a small smile.
Hmm… Honestly, I still think she’s way cuter than the heroines in ‘Enhaz’. It’s baffling that she’s not even considered a side character in this game. It’s seriously glitched in more ways than one.
“Well then, if you’ll excuse me.” (Monica)
“Yeah, thanks.” (Harold)
Monica respectfully bowed and silently left the scene.
“Now then… The two must be worried, so I should head back to the garden.” (Harold)
Talking to myself, I made my way toward the garden where Xandra and the others were waiting. On the way there…
“Ah…” (Harold)
I unexpectedly ran into Lizette’s younger sister, the second princess, Elene.
If I remember correctly, in ‘Enhaz’, she was portrayed as the pitiful little sister who was bullied by the wicked Lizette. So, she’s not even a heroine, just a mob character. But now that I’ve heard King Salomon’s story, although she somewhat resembles Lizette, they don’t look very similar. That must be because they have different mothers.
“Ah, hello, Your Highness Elene.” (Harold)
“Hi-Hiyaa…!” (Elene)
What the…? I just greeted her, but she let out a small scream. And she’s clearly scared of me. Sure, I might look like a minor villain, but this is kind of a shock.
“Ahaha. Please excuse me.” (Harold)
If I stay here any longer, people might think I’m bullying her instead of Lizette. I’m already infamous as the ‘Incompetent bratty prince’, and that reputation probably precedes me even here in the Capetien Kingdom.
So, before things get any worse, I quickly decided to leave, but…
“…” (Harold)
Wait… Why is she following me? Her behavior is too strange, and I don’t know what to do, so I can’t help but tilt my head in confusion. If I try to talk to her, she’ll just get scared again, but if I ignore her, she’ll probably keep following me. Honestly, I want to figure out what her goal is, but I’m at a loss here.
And while I was contemplating all this, more trouble comes my way—
“Ah! Haru!” (Casparleague)
“Whaaat!?” (Harold)
Why is Cas here!? And right when Elene’s around, he’s even talking like a person!?
Panicking, I rushed to grab Cas and immediately covered his mouth.
“Mmff!?” (Casparleague)
“You idiot! This isn’t the Dehaubalz royal palace! Why are you even here!?” (Harold)
I was really flustered at this point. I was so focused on keeping Cas quiet that I couldn’t help blurting that out.
And then…
“That cat… can it speak?” (Elene)
Elene ran up to us with sparkling eyes, asking curiously.
