Mochiron, Isharyōseikyū Itashimasu!

9.

At the same time when Olga-san was dragging Michael-san away, another employee quickly appeared as they continued to serve the customers.

Our employees were truly excellent.

I turned to look at the Prince.

"What?"

"I haven't forgotten about the money."

"I know."

While being satisfied with his response, I turned to look at those two commoner girls.

The two of them were blushing red because of the Prince's presence.

Furthermore, they kept looking at the Prince and me alternately, before they grabbed my hand to close our distance and started to whisper softly.

" "It will be good if you stop seeing that Marquis and choose the Prince instead." "

These two people were truly good friends.

"I am the lady from the Earl's house, our position is quite different, you know?"

" "How can that be~" "

The two of them said that it was regrettable, when the Prince tilted his head in our direction.

"What's wrong? I'll pay for it."

The Prince looked mystified over our discussion.

"I wonder if I should buy this."

"You do not have any need for that, right?"

"Why is that?"

"This is your shop. You already own whatever you wish for."

Needless to say, I clicked my tongue over his comment.

The two commoner girls looked at me in surprise.

"Don't you think you should curb your urge to click your tongue at me?"

"Not at all. I don't care."

"Don't you think that you need to draw the line somewhere?"

"His Highness is my friend right?"

"...........I might have been rash when I made that decision."

My face started to loosen as I watched the Prince with his head down.

I quickly encouraged the two commoner girls to choose whatever they liked.

"Now then~ I have this wallet called His Highness here, tada~ so please choose whatever you want."

"Don't address me weirdly."

"Would you like to see Mathilda-san now?'

".......That's right."

I guided the Prince as we headed towards Mathilda-san.

************

When I knocked on the door, a deeply exhausted Mathilda with messy hair opened it.

"Ma! This is one unusual customer!"

"Ma! Mathilda-san's appearance is also rare!"

"Right now I do not have time to look over my appearance since the deadline is approaching...... Ojou-sama, could you read the finished manuscript?"

"Of course."

Both the Prince and I entered Mathilda-san's room.

Mathilda-san's room was surrounded with a bookshelf that was as high as the ceiling, even then, there was not enough space as the books were cluttering on her bed as well as the floor.
