How To Survive as a Crazy Prince - How To Survive as a Crazy Prince chapter 88

As soon as I returned to the knight academy, one of the fortunate things among the annoying things was that today was the weekend.

‘I want to take a rest today. really… … .’

I stared blankly at the ceiling from the bed and thought. too lazy to get up I want to ignore anyone who comes for a day or so and just lie there all the time. It’s obvious that Irisna will come looking for her anyway.

So today, just as I was about to ask Katyusha not to open the door no matter who comes, the door suddenly opened with a few knocks.

“Ah, there is. You had a lot of trouble with the quest! I came to congratulate you on your successful completion.”

“… … I was forcibly dragged.”

It was fromm and eugene. Fromm had a bright smile as usual, and Eugene had an expression as if he could not stand the annoyance and commit murder.

“If you knock and there is no answer, isn’t it normal to think there is no answer and go back?”

I got up from the bed grumbling at the two uninvited guests who had been busy thinking that I wanted to be alone today. Fromm set the basket he was holding on a nearby table. Probably homemade sweets.

“Where, where… … . Hmm. From what I can see, she doesn’t seem to be there.”

Fromm, who looked around, said in a voice that was both happy and somewhat sad.

“I have, but… … Oh, are you talking about Iris-sama?”

“yes. She’s a weird haired girl.”

At Katyusha’s question, Fromm raised his eyebrows and said. It was a little scary to see Fromm, who was basically lithe even if the substance of it was rotten, speak so frankly and severely.

“I agree a little with the idea that your hair is weird, but that doesn’t sound like you, Fromm.”

“I’m glad you sympathized. Everyone around me has a crush on me, so it’s really annoying.”

Fromm grumbled, not hiding his annoyance. According to Proud, he has already been confessed to four times.

“But does that bother you so much?”

“Ugh. That’s it.”

I asked, but Fromm mumbled, not wanting to say much.

“… … When he saw me hanging out with Fromm-senpai, he got angry at me for pampering commoners.”

When I sneakily noticed Eugene, Eugene clicked his tongue and explained.

“Wait, Eugene. What are you talking about?”

“I see. Is that not true to some degree?”

As if teasing the embarrassing Fromm, there was no question. It was the reaction of a schoolboy who was caught a little misbehavior.

“Well, I admit that there was some intimidation in my relationship with Fromm. But that doesn’t mean it’s being pampered. At best, it’s just asking for a meal together and a shoulder massage.”

Was there a threat? I am very concerned about what happened in the process of treating the wound on my face. Seeing that Eugene avoids my gaze unnaturally, it seems that he has no intention of talking about it even if he dies.

“I think that is enough to pamper them. Eugene, are you dissatisfied?”

“I got used to it. It’s annoying, but you can save money on food.”

“You say it’s annoying in front of you, my junior.”

Fromm poked Eugene’s side with his finger. Eugene doesn’t even move. I’ve thought about it before, but I can’t see Fromm as a senior.

“Well, I don’t really deny the word pampering. But it just annoyed me to say things like that and put myself down and appeal for my own correctness.”

He sat down on a nearby chair and spoke as if complaining. It’s the first time I’ve seen a prom where I’m so blatantly in a bad mood, so honestly, it’s fun.

“Well, that was too much. Even though it’s annoying, it’s true that I’m getting help in small amounts.”

Eugene defended such Fromm. Even if he defends himself, it’s like Eugene to say that he’s bothered.

‘Anyway, what an unexpected combination. In the original work, these two didn’t have much to do with each other.’

It was to the extent that Eugene, who was covered in wounds from fighting too hard, was scolded by Fromm for saying that it would be embarrassing if he came to him like this every time. Did the relationship between the two change significantly by going on a mission together and showing each other’s hidden nature?

“Besides that, there are tons of things I don’t like. Talking wildly without ever meeting the prince. He may be violent, but he must actually have a warm heart.”

“It’s like a nun talking about delinquents in an orphanage.”

Even if you don’t mean to offend, it doesn’t feel very good to be the subject of such comments.

“I am annoyed by the obvious political intentions. I don’t like staying at the prince’s house either.”

I ate one of the cookies that Fromm brought. It was delicious. I liked the freshness of the unknown tree fruit. When I handed one to Katyusha, he took a bite without saying anything and widened his eyes as if surprised by the taste.

“I agree, but I didn’t think you would be so mad about me.”

“I don’t like it when I’m lined up and cut in line.”

It was a blatant answer like a semantic prom. Being cool is rather comfortable.

“So, did you come to talk about that under the pretext of celebrating the completion of the quest? I just thought it would be nice to have someone to talk to, so that’s great. So, what should she do?”

“First of all, what do you think of Iris, Crown Prince?”

When I asked, Fromm asked with a twinkle in his eyes. I don’t know what you’re asking while you’re swearing.

“It’s annoying. But it would be best if it could be used in reverse.”

“If you use it, is it?”

“First of all, she is the younger sister of the corps commander. I sent them with the intention of spying on me and wielding them, but on the other hand, Iris might be able to steal information from this side.”

In response to my answer, Fromm nodded, saying yes, yes. I feel it all over again, but each one has a lot of reactions.

“But the question is whether that woman will act as we wish so easily.”

“If there is a better way, tell me. I just came back from a quest so I don’t have much information.”

“Then how about really crushing me? Right now it’s just acting in moderation, but for some reason, I really fell in love and betrayed the corps commander’s brother.”

Fromm said excitedly that he had thought about it, but hadn’t thought it through because it was obvious that it wouldn’t work.

“The story of a woman in love betraying her family is quite common, isn’t it? Being a commander of a corps, betraying something and savasava to become the prince’s prisoner.”

“Savasaba… … . Do you think she would?”

“… … To be honest, I don’t think so.”

The atmosphere at the exciting prom cooled down in an instant.

“She has a pretty face, but her eyes are cold. I am not someone to love.”

“I sympathize. What do you think, Eugene?”

I sneakily asked for Eugene’s opinion. In the original story, after being virtually abandoned by the emperor, it was Iris who was captured by Eugene’s revolutionary army. Perhaps you will come up with something that will help.

“Is it a dangerous feeling?”

Eugene’s answer was quite unexpected.

“Are you in danger?”

“I don’t know the details, but in summary, shouldn’t Iris be in a romantic relationship with you, whom she has never met, for political reasons?”

Me and Fromm looked at Eugene.

“Then, of course, you wouldn’t want to. But it’s not something you can’t do just because you don’t want to do it. In addition, you, Fromm-senpai, and a few other people also have a lot of antipathy. It seems that there are people who admire and like it, but it seems dangerous to me.”

“Hmm. You may have such an opinion. Interesting.”

I knew that Iris was in a difficult situation, but I didn’t think about anything from Iris’ point of view. If you take that into consideration, there won’t be any gaps in planning. It wasn’t a bad opinion to hear.

“Well, maybe he’s doing it on purpose, I don’t know.”

“… … on purpose?”

While I was trying to organize it by referring to Eugene’s opinion, Yujin threw a questionable word again.

“It won’t be difficult. Is it often like that? Just do what you don’t really want to do.”

Eugene’s words made me realize something I had forgotten all along.

“is it. indeed… … . Is it like that?”

The problem was that I was the center of the current situation. It was a simple matter to change the point of view.

“Thank you, Eugene. It’s helpful advice. I thought of a good way.”

“what. Did you think of something good?”

Fromm, who was concentrating on eating the snacks he brought, asked.

“okay. came to mind.”

I nodded and got up from my seat.

“Let’s give it to Alexei, the rebellious little sister.”

And confidently declared.

Surprisingly, not much is known about the kind of magic possessed by the corps commander, Alexei.

For security reasons, it is often not openly discussed what magical powers an active soldier possesses, but the corps commander’s rumors were surprisingly low compared to his fame.

The reason was simple. It was because the corps commander had never been shown using magic in public.

Thanks to this, rumors spread plausibly that he was a genius in swordsmanship sent from the heavens who, in fact, had no magical powers, but fought so well that he continued to ascend, and at present it was almost accepted as an established theory.

‘Of course it’s not like that at all.’

The corps commander’s magical power is not something that can be seen on the surface.

Similar to my ‘Boost’, it’s just that I don’t seem to be using it because it’s magic in a way that I can’t notice on the outside.

And that younger sister, Iris, must have inherited that magic to some degree.

In other words——Iris was never a resource that could be consumed as a mere trophy.

‘Although this is still impossible to hypothesize.’

In the original work, there was not even a single mention of Iris’ magic power or combat ability.

‘But there are things that can’t be explained otherwise.’

However, I had grounds for quite certainty in this hypothesis.

‘As the emperor’s concubine, the fact that she survived until Eugene rescued her.’

There is no way an ordinary, nothing special trophy character can survive. Iris has something.

Even if you are hiding and suppressing it yourself.

On Monday morning after the weekend, I finished preparing for school and left the special room in the dormitory.

And when we arrived at the central entrance of the knight academy,

“Good morning, Prince Mikhail.”

As I expected to appear soon, Iris was waiting for me. It looked like a girl’s cartoon, and the surrounding gazes and voices caused a slight headache.

“Is that so? I think it’s better that morning doesn’t come forever.”

“To be honest, I also have a hard time in the morning.”

Iris’ bright smile was cold in her eyes. It was easy to see that he wasn’t laughing heartily.

“Iris. Do you have time after school today?”

I took a step closer to Iris and said.

“I want you to go on a date worthy of Sangvis Ferri like me.”

And whispered a slang requesting a duel.
