First Queen is No Longer My Mother

“Harold! Come out here!” (Margaret)
A loud banging on the door echoed, accompanied by a high-pitched and grating voice.
If it isn’t obvious, it’s Margaret, isn’t it?
“…What will you do?” (Monica)
“Ah, it’s fine… I’ll go out myself…” (Harold)
I have a feeling this will be a hassle, but I don’t want to force it on Monica.
I slumped my shoulders and headed toward the door.
“Your Majesty the Queen Margaret… What business do you have so early in the morning?” (Harold)
“Just open this door already! I have something to say to you!” (Margaret)
Even though I asked her for her business through the door, Margaret refused to listen and only demanded that I open it.
I had no choice but to slowly open the door…!?
“Truly… disgraceful…!” (Margaret)
Margaret’s face was bright red, and she slapped me forcefully across the cheek.
“Disgraceful! Disgraceful! Disgraceful!” (Margaret)
“…” (Harold)
Margaret repeatedly slapped my cheek. It was probably her anger at me rejecting Cardis last night. While staying silent, I endured Margaret’s slaps.
“!? L-Let go of me!” (Margaret)
“No. If you harm my… Haru-sama, even if you are Your Majesty Queen Margaret, even if you are his real mother, I will… never forgive you…” (Alexandra)
“Wha… Ah… Ah…!?” (Margaret)
Alexandra’s eyes turned into a blood-red hue as she gripped Margaret’s arm tightly. She curled her lips into a sinister smile. The sight of her struck terror into Margaret, who had now lost all her earlier momentum and was trembling all over.
…This can’t go on.
“Haru-sama…” (Alexandra)
“I’m fine. I’m fine. So…” (Harold)
I hugged Alexandra tightly and whispered gently into her ear, as if calming her.
I don’t want her to stain her precious hands for the sake of a woman like this. But… Margaret will likely now see Alexandra as an enemy and try to harm her. When that time comes, I will definitely protect her.
“Your Majesty Queen Margaret, please leave. This is likely about Brother Cardis, but I no longer consider him my brother. And of course, I don’t consider you my mother either.” (Harold)
“Ah… Wh-what…!” (Margaret)
I clearly rejected Margaret and pushed her out into the hallway before firmly closing the door.
“Phew… Maybe it would be better for all of us to move to the detached palace.” (Harold)
I let out a deep sigh and spoke jokingly to Alexandra and Monica.
If we stay here, I’m sure they’ll continue to interfere with us…
“Alexandra?” (Harold)
“Unforgivable… Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable! Why does my… Haru-sama always have to go through such sadness…!?” (Alexandra)
Alexandra, who was in my arms, let out a choked sob.
I was happy that she was crying for my sake, but more than that, I felt guilty for making someone so precious to me cry.
It has already been more than two years since I regained the memories of my past life. Any feelings I once had for Margaret have long since vanished. I don’t feel sad or hurt in the slightest. That’s why I wanted to tell Alexandra, “I don’t care about it,” and “I don’t want you to be sad over something like this”.
And yet, I couldn’t say those words. All I could do was hold her tightly.

“Everyone, I’m sorry for making you move your rooms to a place like this.” (Harold)
After relocating Liz and the others to the detached palace, I bowed my head deeply in apology. If we had stayed there, it was certain that Cardis, Margaret, Wilfred, and the others would have continued to meddle. Even though it couldn’t be helped, I felt terribly sorry that something like this had to happen on the very first day of summer vacation.
“Ufufu, please don’t worry about it. In fact, here we can enjoy ourselves without anyone disturbing us.” (Christia)
“Exactly!” (Carla)
Carla eagerly agreed with Christia, her breathing somewhat heavy.
Well, they’re absolutely right about that.
“More importantly, did you see? That ‘tainted prince’ brought every single student from the Academy, causing the servants and guards to be completely overwhelmed.” (Lizette)
Liz placed her hand over her mouth and laughed mockingly, just like the villainess she was.
She’s right. I never expected that he would bring in every random person, not even acquaintances.
Thanks to that, the number of invited students swelled to over 100, and they couldn’t even properly prepare rooms for all of them. Monica, who had gone to investigate earlier, had returned and reported it to me with a pleased expression.
“More importantly, we’re going to the royal capital today, right? I’ve been so excited about it!” (Uly)
“O-Oh! Leave it to me! When it comes to the royal capital, no one knows it better than me, Lloyd Sancroft!” (Lloyd)
“Hehehe… I’ll make sure to eat lots of meat at the food stalls.” (Liliana)
Liliana, who still completely focused on meat as usual, was one thing, but Uly and the others didn’t seem to mind what had happened. I felt relieved.
“Alright! Then let’s head straight to the streets of the royal capital!” (Harold)
We climbed into the carriage and left the royal palace in high spirits.
None of us noticed Margaret glaring at us with an unpleasant expression.
