Ive decided to go with Plan A, due to more or less overwhelming support for it.
Camille, wait a moment!
After I finished speaking with Mei, Royce-sama called out to me.
What is it? Royce-sama
I think something a little bad for you just happened.
Bad for me? I wonder what he means.
Hey, Mei. Its nice to see you this lively, but dont push yourself, okay? Your body isnt just yours now, after all.
Royce-sama said that with a smile, before pulling me outside by the hand. It seems that he knows about Meis pregnancy as well. Has he heard from Raiga or someone?
Camille, Achille was brought behind the auditorium by a girl you know! As the fiance, I think this is where you should step in.
Confessing where people cant see you, huhh. Isnt this as usual?
When I said this, the ends of Royce-samas eyebrows dropped in disappointment.
Camille, thats no good you know. Its because youre like this that the other noble girls havent given up on Achille. It looks like a loveless engagement that they have a chance of worming into
Mmmn
What Royce-sama is saying certainly does have a point. Ive always left it alone when Achille gets confessed to, or surrounded by noble girls. Thanks to that, I suffered some unpleasant feelings at Dborahs wedding reception.
I understand. Ill go see how things are.
If youve decided on that, then lets go! I have the responsibility of seeing you two through.
Eh- Royce-sama too? Just like that, I was led by the hand by Royce-sama behind the auditorium.
I refuse.
The moment we arrived behind the auditorium, Achille said that.
Isnt that great, Camille? It looks like Achille clearly rejected her.
Royce-sama whispered to me with a smile.
It seems that way, huh.
Why? Even you should think that the state of the country is abnormal. Are you refusing because of your viscounts family? Or is the cause that fiance of yours? Honestly, Im constantly amazed by that romance-obsessed woman. To be picking up men even in a different world She cant distinguish this world from a game, can she?
Wha- Could that girl, possibly be the Heroine? A lovely girl with fluffy curled hair It seems it really is her. Even though shes in front of Achille, shes saying stuff like game.
Are you insulting Camille?
The one being insulted by that woman is you.
A cold sweat ran down my back.
May I ask you what you think you know about my fiance?
Your fiance knows everything about your upbringing. Your personality, the actions youll probably take, your behaviour, and as a result of these, the future youll probably meet as well; she knows all of these, and on top of that has gotten close to you, you know? That woman.
I unconsciously took a breath. Shes wrong Thats not it. The reason I didnt tell Achille anything isnt because of the reson she said. But, I stiffened and stayed right where I was.
So what?
Achille probably doesnt know what the Heroine really means. I wanted it to stay that way.
Achille Jade! Youre being tricked, you know. By that woman. That woman calculated everything to get close to you. To make you hers.
Shes wr-
I had no intention of tricking Achille. But, the reason that I didnt tell him the truth was exactly that. If he knew the truth after all this time, would Achille scorn me? I dont want to be hated by him Why am I feeling this anxious? Its the first time since coming to this world that Ive felt terror from something other than physical danger.
Hey, youre not supposed to be somebody who is so stupidly involved in romance, you know? You want to change this country, right?
Certainly, I do think that I would like to change the country, but I have no intention of working with you. At any rate, if I was going to change the country, I would do so with a different method.
How regretful. Im disappointed Youve been completely led by that woman, havent you. Even though I thought I could use the J of Hearts.
..*
Huh? They dont seem to be talking about love, do they?
Royce-sama who hadnt noticed that I was trembling due to the danger I had invited on myself, muttered in bored disappointment. Royce-sama, you followed me here half for fun, didnt you?
At that moment, the Heroine who seemed to be unhappy with Achilles reply suddenly raised her hands into the air.
!
It was the action of creating a large scale magic. I immediately pushed Royce-sama into cover, and ran towards Achille.
A magic circle was forming in the air. Thats an incantation for quite a high level spell, huh Memory sealing magic. Its not a forbidden art, but its theoretically better to weave it into the realm of forbidden magic, and is the magic being cast right now.
Achilleee! Its dangerouuus!
Eh- Camille?
While catching sight in the corner of my eye, of Achille who was turning in surprise, I cast the memory seal magic in reverse to seal the Heroines magic. I think Achille by himself is enough to deal with it, but the opponent is the Heroine who possesses a lot of magic power. I cant be careless.
My, you were here too? You got in the way, huh?
The Heroine Frau Monier, turned my way, and smirked in ridicule.
This is great. Since youre here, shall I unmask you before your fianc? Bodyswapper-san?
