The Villainess Princess Will Dive into the Labyrinth Again Today – Chapter 17
Chapter 17: The villainess princess’ encounters
“Something happened, but what was it, I wonder, Mary?”
As they talked during dinner time with the intention of chatting, Caran and Mary dropped the tray.
“Is it time for that tray to stop having a round shape (because it keeps falling)?”
“What are you doing, Miliaria-sama … is that … the offspring of the duke?”
“…What? Why would there be one here?”
“You shouldn’t say such a thing! I heard that the Duke brought him with him on business.
“…I don’t know about that?”
“Miliaria-sama had a long holiday, so I didn’t inform you. It was a sudden talk.”
Even if it’s the offspring of a duke, there’s no need to specifically tell the child.
Probably, opportunities to meet with someone who is not much different from oneself or with a younger partner are rare in the royal castle.
More to the point, such a cute child … well, it’s not so rare in this world, but the feeling of gaining(bonus) is undoubtedly there.
Thinking to herself, “I see, he’s a Duke,” Miliaria asked, “Do you know his name?”
“Yes, I heard it’s Edward, Your Highness,” Mary replied.
“Nng?!”
Miliaria gasped, choking on the large steak in her mouth.
She quickly drank some water to clear her throat.
She couldn’t ignore that name.
Edward, from the Duke family, was the name of the strategy character who defeated the demon king Miliaria, together with the heroine in “Concerto of the Light Princess.”
The golden-haired, blue-eyed prince, who could be considered the main character of the story, was the central figure of the story.
Of course, he was also handsome. Haha.
Miliaria managed to swallow the piece of meat and sighed with relief.
“It’s okay, I just bit off more than I could chew.”
“P-Please be careful. It’s not good for your health,” Mary warned.
“My esophagus is not narrow enough to not be able to swallow a steak! If you wanted to kill me, couldn’t you have at least brought me a thicker American one?”
“…Please calm down and enjoy your meal,” Mary said, trying to keep the mood light.
That’s correct.
The size of the steak doesn’t matter as much as satisfying one’s hunger. The characters in the story are not Miliaria’s concern.
More importantly, Miliaria has been feeling hungry lately due to her increased physical activity.
Conquering the labyrinth requires intense effort, even in the game world.
Not only are the enemies strong, but time is also a major obstacle.
“Ah… I lack grace in everything. I need to make an effort,” Miliaria thought to herself.
“Yes, moderation is best for your appearance (Don’t be such a tomboy),” Mary commented.
“You’re annoying,” Miliaria replied, a little frustrated.
Mary’s remarks may have been a little concerning, but the immediate issue was that Miliaria was tired of playing games and didn’t care about the game characters anymore.
***
“I want to eat Yakitori (skewed chicken), Otoo-sama!”
“Yakitori? What’s that?” the Duke asked.
From that day on, Edward frequently mentioned his favorite mysterious food, Yakitori, much to the Duke’s confusion. But that was not Miliaria’s business.
