Ignoring evasively the boos of the idiots (of course, I, along with Zack who was keeping me company voluntarily, was having a girls' talk with my secluded friends and receiving recent information), the royal family, starting with his Majesty the King made their entrance.
Huh? Is that the first Prince? It was the first time I saw him.
His face was just like Gilbert's. Just the color of the hair and eyes were light brown. Just a different color gave off a softer feeling. If I was not mistaken, his name was Andresama. Looking at Andresama for the first time, the ladies were breathing a sigh all over.
Even the carnivorous ladies without a fiance were staring with shining eyes. Their representative was Meg.
The coming of age ceremony begun. With the congratulation speech from his Majesty.
My father was standing next to the King. This place was secretly better than the Prime Minister's.
After the speech of his Majesty was over, the Prime Minister, as the master of the ceremony, uttered the words "I will convey the important things of our country".
"Father. I have a favor to ask at this celebration. There is an offender who is not fitting for this occasion. It is inexcusable that she appears before us the royalties, not knowing of her position no matter how much time passes.
Although I let go once out of generous mercy, she appears shamelessly again after giving an injury on my beloved fiancee.
I beg of you, please condemn her!!"
Gilbert noticed my presence as soon as he appeared.
That is, the huge Zack was next to me. Since Meg, indeed trembling from uneasiness, was looking restlessly at me and the Prince, it was obvious Gilbert would misunderstand. I felt considerably irritated.
"Gilbert. It is not the place for that kind of discussion now"
His majesty, who was cornered, spoke. What about the important speech of the Prime Minister?
"What are you saying! I don't want to breathe the same air as the offender Julia no longer! Father, if something else were to happen to my beloved fiancee, what would you do!?"
"Father~. A little while ago, Julisama made a severe complaint. Sob"
Is it okay to call his Majesty father before marriage? And in front of everyone. While the official engagement was still not announced.
"Julia, an offender!? Gilbert-sama, you are not really saying that my cute daughter is an offender, are you?"
My father's voice, eyes and face too, everything is scary. I also want to take shelter behind Zack's back!
"Gilbert! Apologize to Duke Lediz as well as Miss Julia at once! Why is that Meg person in this place with her commoners' social status! I didn't approve her engagement with Gilbert!"
"Eh?"
Meg was puzzled. Everyone in the hall was probably speechless too.
"Wha, what are you saying? Father. Didn't I tell you many times about my marriage with Meg?"
"I advised you to love her like a favorite concubine, but… the Queen will be Miss Julia…"
"Ahem. Excuse me. Your Majesty. What are you saying now?
Why should I marry my daughter to a man who mocked her at this place today and one year ago?"
Father! You, you don't have to say the truth to the King so aggressively. While thinking so, I was thinking deep inside.
Father, you are so cool!
"Lediz. I, I see. In that case, how about marrying Andrea? Let's make Andrea the Crown Prince! Well yes, that is the best"
"Father! To say such nonsense!"
"Father?"
Gilbert was angry with a bright red face and Andresama was confused. I was a little out of my mind. This situation. I didn't hear anything. I didn't hear anything.
"No. I won't tie any connection with Yuk royal family which went so bad once!"
I saw the gallows in a different meaning. Mother, we will meet soon with father… we will die…
"Wh, what! If the daughter is an offender, then her father too! Father, punish this father and daughter immediately! Punishment for lese-majeste!
There is a legitimate successor for the Lediz family.
Chris is a steady person!"
"Your Majesty. Please forgive the abusive words of my father and older sister. I will succeed the Duke family for this crime and support Gilbert-sama starting with his Majesty"
Chris went in front of his Majesty and kneeled.
"That's right. That's right. This crazy father and daughter are at fault. Gil doesn't love anyone but me. Only me can give birth to a child, therefore I am the Queen!"
Meg who doesn't read the mood. Why are you coming out now?
"All, all of you keep silent! Lediz! Shouldn't we calm down and have a little talk?"
"We are talking now. Me and Julia doing lese-majeste? Then we will quietly retire, we are planning to go breathe the air of Sith country"
Exile in Sith country… I wonder if I will not meet Luke anymore… Suddenly his face with the same light brown eyes as Prince Andrea came to my mind. Come to think of it, the King too has light brown eyes.
