83 Crown Prince's Perspective

"Thank you for making time"
"Yeah. I thought it was time to talk to you."

In the evening, the appointed time came, so I came to His Majesty's office with Cyril.
As usual, without a single smile, His Majesty in front of me turned a cold gaze towards me.

“I know what you are thinking about as Marcel Marcel as your fiancée.”
"……Is that so"

The corners of his mouth are barely lifted and a smile emerges, but even he himself feels that the depths of his eyes are gradually cooling.
The temperature in this room must be dropping. The air around me and His Majesty is so cold that I can think so.

“The reason I agreed with you when you said you wanted to get engaged to Miss Marcel was because she was a daughter of the Marquis and had high magical power.
“However, did His Majesty say no to keeping Rachel as her fiancé even after she lost her magical power?”
"Because you seemed to be investigating something. Besides, isn't it quite interesting that the young lady made a contract with the Black Spirit?"
“Then, there is no problem with being your fiancée.”

At my words, His Majesty only glanced at me as if he were looking at someone who didn't understand what I was talking about. But even so, I looked straight at His Majesty.
After a moment of heavy silence, it was His Majesty who opened his mouth.

"If a saint was born, it would be a different story. Despite having a saint, to be a queen without magic. It's not suitable for the royal family."

not appropriate.
Certainly, the previous me would not be suitable as a queen when Rachel became sickly due to depletion of magic power. It's true that I felt that way.

But in reality, Rachelle just kept moving forward and staying strong in any situation.
Don't be pessimistic about your situation.
without hating anyone.
And even now, at this moment, she is only looking forward.

His Majesty would never know about it, nor would he understand it.
Still, if you look at aspects other than magical power, she is trying to have the qualities to become the next queen.
More than anything else, having her stand next to me when I become the king of this country is reassuring to me, and it's my greatest wish.

That is why His Majesty's words unwittingly cause irritation to well up inside of me.
I forcefully parried it in the form of a smile, but I have no confidence that it will go well.

Whether knowing or not knowing my heart, His Majesty sat back down on the sofa I was sitting on and turned a sharp gaze towards me.

"Recently you're really outrageous. I don't understand why you're so obsessed with that lady."
“Well, I am a different person than His Majesty.

Others would have stiffened and turned pale with just His Majesty's gaze and sigh.
But right now, I can't turn my back on His Majesty.
That is why, by deepening my smile, I express that I cannot agree with what His Majesty wants to say.

“Of all my sons, I think you are the most suitable for a king. A king is an aloof existence.
Compared to your younger brothers, you are remarkably good, and most of all, you can be ruthless.
That's why I made you the crown prince."

I understand that His Majesty is looking at me more than other brothers and sisters.
That's probably why I grew up surrounded only by adults, without having much contact with other siblings or the queen since I was a child.

Certainly, the imperial studies that were given to me from an early age would be useful for me in the future, and would have been useful in building my own foundation.
