Raphine was embarrassed and clapped her lips. I have to look good.

"Hey, is your butt okay, Raphine?"

"Yes..."

Raphine nodded at Violet when she asked in a friendly voice.

Still, her gaze was directed toward Zerkan.

Violet noticed this and grinned.

"Raphine, this is Adrian's and my friend, Zerkan, who I was talking about back then. He's the Crown Prince."

"Hi, are you Adrian's younger sibling?"

"......."

Raphine hesitated even at the greeting of Zerkan.

Violet thought it was because Raphine was shy and made a strange sound of "Yay."

But now Raphine was very nervous.

'What should I say?'

「Ask him to marry you, baby! Speak confidently!」

'Suddenly..?'

「Originally, that's what marriage proposals are like! Don't hesitate! Raphine, go!」

At Ruby's support, Raphine closed her eyes.

Then she reached out and squeezed Zerkan's arm and grabbed it.

"Shut up, I'm determined."

"Huh? What?"

Zerkan furrowed his eyebrows and lowered his upper body slightly.

The hesitation was brief. Raphine was encouraged by his actions and shouted out loud.

"I want to marry you!"

"........"

"........"

"........"

"........"

「It was good, sweetie! It was the perfect marriage proposal!」

Zerkan and Violet, who were involved in Raphine's shocking remarks, were watching the escort knight Sir Rendell.

And to Adrian who was approaching from behind.

Everyone was dumbfounded and just blinked.

"........"

Raphine realized that something was wrong.

Raphine maintains her adult thinking, but is often forced to be a child.

There were times when it was difficult to understand.

'Is there something wrong-?'

「What do you mean wrong? You proposed perfectly.」

At Ruby's words, Raphine was slightly relieved, then raised her head and looked at Zerkan.

The boy with tremendous beauty was looking at her with his eyebrows furrowed.

'It must be a rejection.'

Yeah, I didn't think it was going to be successful in the first place.

"First-"

Well, it didn't matter anyway.

After all, the age at which the original protagonists go to the academy is 12 years old.

So, about two years from now.

Until then, Raphine had been very tenacious in persuading Zerkan to accept her promise to marry her as a verbal contract.

Raphine raised the corners of her lips awkwardly as she looked at Zerkan who was staring at her.
