At 9 AM.
I finally set foot on the battlefield called the academy.
With my white fitted blazer and a slightly longer skirt, I looked like a modest nun or something. But I’ll let it slide since my pale blue hair stands out nicely.
Cid, standing by my side as my guard, caused the young ladies who saw him to let out high-pitched screams like “Kyaa!”
How can he be more noticeable than me, the villainess? What kind of bug is this?!
When I glare at Cid, he responds with a completely outward smile.
“What’s the matter?”
“Grrr. . .!”
So cool!
But now is not the time to think about that.
I quickly avert my gaze from him because I don’t want him to see my blushing cheeks.
“I should have come on a magic scooter instead of a carriage.”
“No, Miss. It’s dangerous in the city.”
It’s no wonder Cid tried to stop me.
The magical scooter that I had designed to resemble a moped floats and moves at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour.
Since the fuel efficiency is really bad, only Cid and Onii-sama can drive it, but with that, the two of us could have commuted to school together.
I should have parked it at the back entrance and sneaked in.
Because I foolishly rode a carriage and entered the school from the front, Cid ended up being seen by so many students.
Although I feel gloomy since the morning, I am the daughter of Duke Marcus.
In the school, I must behave as a model lady.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Amidst the attention, I walked confidently with my back straight.
When I entered the classroom, I immediately saw the sight of my fiancé surrounded by the young ladies.
I want to ignore them, but I have to greet them at least.
“Miss, do your best.”
“Yes. I’ll be back.”
Cid didn’t enter the classroom and immediately left after escorting me. He will be waiting in the room designated for me within the academy.
I desperately held back a sigh and headed calmly towards Prince Roque.
Ah, it’s infuriating how he pretends not to notice me even though he’s been aware of me since earlier!
Should I just headbutt him like this? Such thoughts crossed my mind. But if I actually did that, I would be sent straight to the dungeon for disrespect.
Reluctantly, I called out to Prince Roque.
“Your Highness, it’s been a while.”
“Ah, you haven’t changed.”
The prince, wearing a pure white blazer with golden-trimmed collar, looks beautiful as always. His red hair flutters in the wind, and his appearance truly befitted royalty.
When he sees me, he greets me with an air of “We’re engaged, so we have to talk.”
“You seem well. . .It’s an honor to be able to see you every day at the academy.”
Smooth compliments flowed effortlessly from my mouth, as befits a duke’s daughter.
“Hmph, I suppose so. If it’s occasionally, we can have lunch together.”
“Well. . .”
Yeah, absolutely not. The prince, taking my social niceties seriously, said something unusual about having lunch together.
If you only listen to his words, he might come across as a kind prince who reaches out to his fiancée, but on both sides of him, there are young ladies with brown and blonde hair accompanying him, and unbelievably, he has his arms around their shoulders.
That’s not the attitude of someone talking to their fiancée, right?!
Those girls, even with me as his fiancée, show no intention of leaving the Prince. They’re truly fortunate individuals, even though if they continue dating the prince like this, they’ll only end up defiled and discarded.
I mean, with a prince like this becoming the next king, it’s a flag of the country’s downfall. Even though this country is a major power compared to neighboring countries, the future looks too dark with a foolish king in charge.
And besides, even if he’s a character from a romance novel, he should improve his womanizing tendencies a bit. His refreshing appearance is only skin-deep.
“That uniform suits you quite well.”
“Thank you for your kind words.”
It’s creepy how he looks at me from head to toe as if licking me.
Let’s get out of here quickly. Yes, let’s do that.
“Well then, if you’ll excuse me.”
As I turned around, I was filled with the feeling that I didn’t want to have anything to do with this insolent prince for even one more second.
The prince, who expected me to flatter him, now looks at me with a piercing gaze, feeling betrayed. But I couldn’t care less about that.
In the romance novel, he was supposed to be a “slightly promiscuous prince.” Why is it more than just “slightly” now?! I wonder what will happen to the story development where he meets the heroine and changes his ways.
Ugh, no way, me. Marrying someone like that.
I have to find the heroine and use the power of my family to transfer her to the school.
I will live a peaceful school life as a well-behaved Duke’s daughter, without becoming a villainess.
I can still do it.
There’s still time.
However, a few days later, my plans crumbled unexpectedly.
