(MTL) It seems that the fiancée who is in love will be turned into a villainess

chapter 42

Ten. love rival?

　From the declaration of searching for a princess, the area around Leohart is casually overflowing with young ladies.
　Starts in the morning, between classes, breaks for lunch, and after school. Those who say I am talking to Leohart. Leohart continues to dodge them without giving a definitive answer, with sweet lines that make you want to ask if he learned it from Raphael or on his own.
　Such behavior catches the attention of children. I was looked at with curiosity and jealousy.
　
　Miss Lisha began to act separately from Leohart. According to what I hear, she devotes herself to her studies silently, and even takes breaks to study and review.
　It seems that the reputation from teachers is also excellent. In class, he earnestly stares at the blackboard and never fails to ask questions if he doesn't understand something. He seems to have settled in with the other students.
　Miss Lisha, who tried to improve herself in spite of the fact that she was brought here by the whim of the prince, was secretly gathering sympathy and admiration.
　
　I guess that's what Leohart intended.
　In a neighboring country far away from her brother, she behaves like a playboy and cuts down on the power of confrontation――probably the main purpose is to divert the eyes of the 'enemy' from Miss Risha.

"Good evening, Leohart-sama."
"Leohart-sama, good luck."
“Are you looking for a candidate for a princess during your study abroad?”
"Then how about me?"
"That's right, Elizabeth-sama has His Highness Vincent."
"The two of you are in love with each other. Unfortunately, there is no chance."
"Eh, more than that, with me."
"No, with me!"
　
　After school, Elizabeth's guards gathered as soon as Leohart appeared.
　He pretends to aim for the ostensible palanquin and builds a wall of people to hide Elizabeth and keep her in check. It's an admirable job. Rather than supporting me, I can see the desperation of "I don't want to keep up with Elizabeth-sama if she goes out of the country", but as long as I get results, I don't care about my thoughts and beliefs.
　
“Everyone, Leohart-sama is in trouble.”
　
　When Elizabeth said this, Miss Margaret and the others quickly left Leohart, but this time they gathered around Elizabeth and started chatting.
　Wow, I can't see Elizabeth.
　
"Oh, it's salon time. I'll see you when I'm done. Good evening."
　
　The ladies are approaching again. As she formed a tight formation and felt the pressure from her bulging skirt, she stepped back, and before she knew it, she had left the room.
　Next to me, Leohart smiles wryly.
　
"I seem to be hated. … No, is she liked?"
"Both."
　
　In the back seat of the salon room, Miss Risha was reading a notebook. She gradually clouded her face and drew her eyebrows between her eyebrows. She apparently took notes, but she didn't understand - which she could tell from a distance.
　One of the ladies peered in and said something while pointing to the description. Then, after Miss Lisha's face changed to her thoughtful face, she flashed a smile like a flower.
　Miss Risha bowed her head many times with an innocent expression, and the young lady who taught her also loosened her lips.
　
　Indeed, the image of the heroine that "Otsusei" was originally aiming for was something like this.
　……Ah, the bad feeling increases.
　
　Feeling indescribable, I pulled Leohart and entered the next room.
　In a room that was one size smaller than the salon room, Harold prepared a small drink and light meal. There was also a sweetness that Elizabeth liked.
　
"this is……"
“I have it next door as well.”
"well done"
　
　Harold put his hand on his chest and bowed. Even if it's to earn points for Miss Margaret, I'm happy to be able to eat Elizabeth's favorite food in a space that's not so far away from her.
　I feel like I'm starting to feel Elizabeth's signs because I've been training my magic accumulation recently.
　If you do your best, you may be able to eat at the same time. It's called a virtual date.
　
“How about Harold?
　
　I told him that he would surely want to eat the fiancée's sweets while feeling the presence of his fiancée like me, but Harold shook his head while standing upright.
　
"I'm not that good at it, so I'll just ask you how you feel."
"Really"
　
　Since the Abakarov family is a fighter, I wonder if they don't practice magic that much.
　
　Now, the problem is Leohart.
　I set a macaron in my right hand so that I could eat it anytime, and I looked at Leohart.
　
"You, what are you thinking? You're going to disturb the morals of the school, and you're going to make advances on Elizabeth. Is your goal to make a bad name in neighboring countries and damage the honor of Orion Kingdom and Marius-dono?"
“No way.
"..."
　
　Involuntarily, I saw it with eyes that saw something dangerous.
　What's scary about this line, which at first glance is appealing for innocence, is the complete contradiction between what was expressed and what Leohart said and did.
　In other words, there are various troublesome plans behind the scenes, and Elizabeth is the key figure.
　
“…I fell in love with Lady Elizabeth. I want to take her back to my country.
　
　Leohart gives a gentle, kind smile. It's an artificial expression full of affection. I know because he treats me well too.
　being provoked.
　
"You can't hold it in your hand."
"Hmm. Then let's talk a little more. I think Elizabeth will be happier if she stays in my country."
"Ah??????"
　
　No, a voice that shouldn't have come out came out.
　When I cautiously looked behind me, Harold was shaking his head.
　Leohart continued talking with an ignorant face.
　
"The other day, our countrymagic crystalcrystalDiscover mines of It is said that the next 30 years will not end.”
"……What do you want to say"
"I can promise Elizabeth a wealthy life, rather than in the country you will rule."
"you--"
　
　Do you think Elizabeth will have a change of heart for the money?
　I opened my mouth to tell him not to insult me, but then I realized it wasn't.
　
　At least in terms of funds, Orion Kingdom has more leeway than our country. In other words, there is a high possibility that Elizabeth will be able to reduce the burden she has to endure in the future.
　life isleg・the law of nature・Re・palce・That's good. No need to overflow.
　However, when I put Elizabeth's happiness first, I, who should be the crown prince, cannot reach Leohart in terms of funds.
　No, if it's Elizabeth, I'm sure she'll say, "Money isn't a problem. If we improve the country together, the results will come naturally."
　As such, I feel defeated.
　
"..."
　
　It's going to shake me...
　
　Harold took a step forward while he was groaning.
　
“Can I ask for your permission to sit with me?”
"Oh, of course."
　
　Leohart smiles. In response, Harold... narrowed his eyes and softly loosened his mouth.
　
　! !
　
　maybe once a yearice manHaroldsmile.
　It would be rude to return an expressionless face because Leohart smiled at me. Even knowing that, I still feel like I lost.
　"Me too," Harold smiled at Harold, but Harold just glanced at him and without any reaction, he opened the door to Leohart.
　
"According to rumors, the 'Otsusei' imported from our country is currently popular in Orion Kingdom. I heard that His Highness Marius and Lisha-sama also like that novel very much."
"Hoho, just as I heard the rumors, Abakarov's house seems to be reaching out for various things."
　
　Leohart distorted his mouth with a grin.
　
"The reason why you're approaching Elizabeth is about Marius-dono."
"ancestor・child・devil・and・If you know, you can't even make me say it out of my mouth. Elizabeth will help you out."
"That's why it's a problem."
　
　He raised his eyebrows when he was told that everything was implicitly guessed.
　It's completely different to guess and hear from the person himself. I guess Leohart is also trying to figure out how many circumstances it takes for me to nod.
　Of course, there is no reason to accept it.
　
　No matter how much Elizabeth says it's good.
　To have finally protected Elizabeth again as a "villain daughter".
