「Onii-sama!」
「Prince.」
Taking a quick look around, Albert more or less grasped the current situation.
He held a strict expression as he briskly walked over to Oscar.
As the blond-haired white uniformed dazzling Albert confronted the unkempt dark uniform wearing Oscar, it was as if a white knight was coming to challenge a demon.
Although they may be a part of the Bernstein faction, even the girls in the surroundings couldn't help but blush.
Albert's next resounding voice sharply displayed his anger.
「I'll have you return the Princess and lady Leonora now.」
「–– Ha!」
However, Oscar shrugged as he was completely unfazed.
「No need for such anger, well. You asked what we're doing here? We're just serving food that we put our hearts into at our『Tea Party.』」
「From where I stand, all I can see is incredibly inappropriate food being served at this tea party of yours. The Princess has also become quite pale, hasn't she? I don't know what you're planning, but I'll be taking these two now! Even if you try to stop me.」
「Oh? How very dangerous. Is that an imperial order?」
Towards Oscar who was insinuating power abuse, Albert merely says 「Of course not」 and laughed.
「Just a request from a brother for the sake of his sister! —- If it wasn't, then I would in an equally simple manner, order your execution.」
「....Hmph.」
Seeing the daunted Oscar, Leo was terrified.
(The imperial family is scary!)
Just being a tiny bit rude warrants an execution.
Punching his face and stealing his stuff, moreover, a national treasure level of an item at that, Leo can't even begin to imagine what would happen to him if he were caught.
As Leo became increasing pale, Kai, who seemed to have come with Albert, rushed over.
「Leonora-sama! How are you feeling?! Aah, this is bad, for you to look this pale...」
In response to that murmuring, Albert looked over as well.
「Are you okay?」
His tone was soft, but his facial expression did not change.
Leo became even paler.
「I-I-I'm okay...」
「What a bad lie.... Look at how pale you are, you've even got a cold sweat now.」
His lovely sharp eyes narrowed as if he was seeing through the greed stained Leo's true nature.
Sensing that the Prince's focus had shifted from Oscar to himself, Leo was terrified.
This Prince Albert, contrary to his elegant appearance, I have no doubt that he's actually black-hearted and mean inside, it was clear from that back and forth just now.
「...On our behalf, I'm sorry.」
「N-no no. No no no.」
Like a parrot, Leo just repeated the same word.
「Bernstein-senpai. Her condition doesn't look so good so I shall excuse myself for today. We will continue this conversation later.
「Haa. I have nothing that I want to talk to you about though.」
