27. The climax is at the party (before)

 The day has finally come.
 The coming-of-age party at the Royal Academy is held towards the end of the first year to celebrate the students turning sixteen.
 Relatives are not allowed to participate due to the scale of the event becoming too large, but second and third year students also visit and all students attend. It is a gorgeous party next to entrance and graduation.
 In addition, there was another expectation for this year's coming-of-age party.
 It is the realization of the scene that will be the climax of "Otsusei".
 On this occasion, the crown prince abandons the fiancée who repeatedly harassed him and declares the main character as his official fiancée.
 
 
 A luxurious chandelier glitters in the white hall covered with polished marble. Gathered on the spot are the sons and daughters who wear the most expensive costumes they can get for today's sunny stage.
 There was an undeniable excitement on their faces. Normally, it would have to be suppressed in the depths of one's heart, but only today, in an extraordinary day, it gradually seeps out to the surface.
 
 The current students gathered in the hall stood in a circle.
 At the center of it, where the surroundings were paying attention, was me, Miss Ulysse, and Elizabeth who were facing each other.
 A space reserved for dancing. That's because I stepped forward and called out the names of Miss Ulysse and Elizabeth.
 
 I glanced around and almost let out a sigh.
 Aside from Luke, who had a complicated expression with his nose puffed out, and Edward, who was leaning forward in the front row of the circle with his eyes shining, many other students were watching the developments with excitement. I could see it.
 Even those who didn't move openly were still affected by 《Charm》.
 Or can't you just hide your curiosity?
 I could also glimpse Lars behind the crowd. He makes a face of what the heck is going on and is talking to the schoolmate next to him. Good acting.
 
 In that respect, Elizabeth, who was placed in the center of the line of sight, showed less emotion.
 Seeing me and Miss Ulysse cuddling together seemed to make him feel uneasy, but even so, he was more confused than angry.
 As for me, with a cold expression on my face, I was ringing the bell so early that I thought my heart would break.
 
 Elizabeth this is no no no no I was the one who told Miss Ulysse to come over here. It's over there that you've folded her arms! It's not from me! !
 
 Feeling unbearable, I proceeded with the scenario quickly.
 Taking a deep breath, I tightened my stomach.
 And then, with a voice that resounded in the hall, he announced that line――the line that everyone in this place expected.
 
 
"I can't put up with your arrogant and vicious deeds. Elisabeth de La Montlievre, the daughter of the Duke of Montlievre. I will cancel my engagement with you!"
 
 
 Good thing I didn't bite! ! ! !
 It was too painful to say the lines themselves, so I could only do image training in my brain, but I managed somehow.
 If you look at Elizabeth timidly, Elizabeth still has a face that still doesn't understand the situation.
 Don't be angry. Of course, sadness is also herfaceKanbasedoes not appear in
 
"... I don't understand what you mean."
"You should know. If you acknowledge the many things you've done to Ulysse."
"Nothing"
 
 know.
 But, oddly enough, Elizabeth's natural response was similar to the lines in the novel. The students hold their breath and watch.
 After Elizabeth made a move, she looked at me again.
 Now, Elizabeth, you should be able to tell me what I want.
 
"I cannot decide on my own.your wishesgokiboIt is located in His Majesty the King and my father were also included――」
 
 As I expected, Elizabeth mentioned her father's name.
 I expected that she would say that if she thought about the country and valued the ties between families.
 
"I have your Majesty's consent. Including this announcement today."
 
 At that moment, Elizabeth's unwavering expression froze.
 You can see that her eyes are wide open and she is about to stagger and tremble.
 Elizabeth looked away from me and looked at Miss Ulysse.
 
"...!!"
 
 Blood rose to Elizabeth's cheeks and anger flared up in her eyes.
 It was Elizabeth's face, the first time she had ever seen it, full of genuine anger.
 Keep your lips straight, no frown, and your face straight. Only the depths of her eyes were shining brightly.
 It was beautiful and noble anger.
 From that expression, I could immediately guess what Miss Ulysse had done.
 
"mirror, freezefixin' the mirror! ”
 
 Unleashes pre-generated magical power.
 Reflecting in the hall and reaching all the students, it restricts the freedom of the body――except for me and Elizabeth, who have the divine protection of 《Evil Revenge》.
 I rushed over to Elizabeth, who was about to collapse, and supported her body.
 
"I'm sorry for the difficult role, Liza."
"...His Highness Vince"
 
 I feel relieved when my nickname is called back.
 Elizabeth let herself go in a daze for a while, but when she suddenly realized, she left my arms.
 
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. Thank you very much."
 
 Holding Elizabeth's hand, who was trying to keep her distance, I stopped her.
 I have to let everyone here know that I have no intention of letting Elizabeth go.
 Especially for Lars, who is frozen with a delighted expression on his face.
 
“Then, from now on, I will return everyone’s freedom, but—”
 
 While saying the lines I had prepared, I confirmed the scenario after this.
 It's my scenario, not Otsusei's.
 
 The world seems to call me the perfect crown prince or something, but that's not the case.
 As you can see from the fact that I was a brat before I met Elizabeth, I have a bad personality. I'm just hiding it in order to be worthy of Elizabeth. In that respect, I can understand the feeling of the Crown Prince who desperately improves himself for the sake of his favorite partner of "Otsusei".
 I'm sure the crown prince who was blinded by the main character and abandoned his fiancé without knowing his position would say something like this.
 Those who get in the way of love will be rewarded accordingly.
