5. start a scramble

 Mother and Leohart's eyes catch Elizabeth's eyes and shine.
 
"Kyaaaaaaaa!!!"
 
 Miss Leshablack dragonLarsand scream.
 
 Umu, it's chaos. What's up with this?
 
 Leohart crossed in front of me when I was about to escape from reality.
 Without paying attention to Lars, he quickly approached Elizabeth.
 An elegant bow.
 
“This is my first time meeting you. My name is Leohart Berlioz, Second Prince of Orion Kingdom. Please call me Leo.”
“Nice to meet you, my name is Elizabeth La Montlievre. My father is a Duke. Next to His Majesty the King.
 
 Elizabeth rebuked Lars, who was red-eyed and menacing, while responding calmly. And I apologize to Leohart and Miss Lisha, whose face is getting paler.
 
“Elizabeth-sama, not only is your appearance beautiful, but your name is also beautiful.
 
 Once again, ignoring Lars, whose eyes were sparkling, Leohart insisted. From the way we looked, he seemed to have decided instantly that he was in no danger.
 Leohart, who innocently asked, only saw Elizabeth.
 teeth? wait a minute. Was he serious when he said he was looking for someone with blond hair and purple eyes?
 
"Leohart, Elizabeth is mine—"
 
 
"Elizabeth, please marry me."
 
 
 Leohart's voice resounded in the hall before I finished my words, which I tried to pierce.
 
"Wh----"
 
"I will break off the engagement between you and Eri-tan. Let's adopt Eri-tan as our adopted son, and invite a man worthy of a princess from a neighboring country to be our son-in-law.』
 
 I remember the voice of my father that I heard in my dream. Dominated by a flash of fear that flashed like lightning, my body became stiff and unmovable. When I manage to turn my gaze, my father watches over the course of events with eyes that have lost their emotions. In other words, he's not crazy. Even though he could silence a rath (human) with a glance.
 Mother is also keeping silent while snuggling up to Miss Risha. She shows no sign of objecting to Leohart's marriage proposal.
 Harold――Harold had the usual expressionless expression of ice.
 
 Everyone went silent. The hall was enveloped in a strange silence.
 
 Could it be that Leohart is Elizabeth's groom candidate...?
 Was it because I was smirking looking at the embarrassed Elizabeth, and everything was too late, and I was branded as disqualified as a son?
 
 No, it's not the time to be trapped in a nightmare delusion.
 I managed to tear off the chin that seemed to be glued together and opened my mouth.
 
"Leohart, Elizabeth is mine—"
"I am very grateful for your offer, but I cannot do it."
 
 My words were interrupted again. But this time, it was Elizabeth's soft voice.
 Elizabeth, straightening her back and looking at Leohart with a smile on her face, was full of pride and dignity as someone who would carry the country on her back.
 
 Eh...Elizabeth Uuuuu...! !
 In a situation where no one is on my side, you're the only one trying to protect me...
 
 In front of me, who was on the brink of tears as I fell in love with her dignity again, the noble "refusal" continued.
 
“Because I am His Highness Vincent’s fiancée, and His Highness Vincent――”
 
 Having said that, Elizabeth suddenly shut her mouth. she looks around. Me, my parents, my own father, of course Leohart, Miss Risha, Harold and his servants.
 Realizing that she was attracting everyone's attention, Elizabeth shook her lovely lips.
 
 In the next moment, it turned red with such force that it seemed like a popping sound could be heard.
 
 ……Ah (guess).
 You forgot that I confessed to you, Elizabeth. Come to think of it, I had completely fallen out of her head because of the evil dragon commotion.
 Next to Elizabeth who turned bright red, Lars squeaks in protest. It seems that he instinctively realized that something had happened between me.
 
 When I looked at my father and mother again, they both covered their faces with both hands. Was the silence earlier just waiting for Elizabeth's embarrassed face?
 Since some of Elizabeth's friends were escorts under royal orders, they probably paid attention to what was going on at the school.
 Noticing my gaze, my father stretched out his right thumb and index finger and touched my chin. I don't remember that hand sign at all, but it probably means "leave this to Eri-tan", so I'll keep quiet.
 
"I apologize for the unsightly part..."

 Elizabeth pressed her palms down to dissipate the heat from her cheeks and took a deep breath.
 Father and mother shook their heads with gentle eyes. It's not ugly. I don't understand Elizabeth.
 
“We cannot accept your request.
 
 Elizabeth cut her head a little forcefully, saying that this was the end of the story.
 But instead of retreating, Leohart took a step forward. Even though he was dumped, he turned his eyes more passionately,
 
"No, there is no one better than you. Don't be Vincent, be my princess."
 
 Ah? ?
 
 The next word that was released made me almost let out a voice unsuitable for the crown prince.
