The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today - The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today chapter 112

112 – [Abduction] The Crown Prince is tired today.(2)

The family of Count Xernias.

Now, unlike the family of the Duke of Valencia, with whom she is betrothed, she belongs to the lesser-known side.

“······Cool.”

“That’s right.”

As if fame and family had nothing to do with it, the residence of Count Xernias had a very beautiful view.

Alber Zernias, who welcomed him and Veronica, was more comfortable than I thought.

“······Collock. I apologize for being rude because of my poor condition.”

“I hope you don’t worry about that. In fact, it’s my fault that came on suddenly.”

“I would like to express my gratitude to the Crown Prince for his generosity.”

First of all, his manners were different from those around him.

Although I was not feeling well, I sat on the bed to greet him.

He greeted him as politely as he could, even though he came quite unexpectedly.

The feeling of being liked just by being polite.

“······Whoa.”

“Why are you looking at me and sighing? It just makes me feel bad.”

“Knight Commander, it would be nice if you could just stay still.”

Of course, Prince Albert’s reaction was a normal one.

It was strange to see Veronica still blinking at him, and Princess Rebecca acting as if she was the best.

Alber asked curiously.

“Your Highness, may I ask why you came here with the Knight Commander?”

“For now, it’s probably right to see for yourself what kind of person will be the son-in-law of the Duke of Valencia officially.”

“Do you have any unofficial reasons?”

“I was curious about what kind of life the fiancé of that crazy princess is living.”

“····.”

“······Lower, didn’t we tell you to refrain from such words and actions outside?”

At his unstoppable words and actions that didn’t even look at the eyes of those around him, Albert looked at him as if he was absurd.

“What does it matter? There are only three of us here.”

“Down!”

The Knight Commander’s dissuades sounded startled, and Albert’s expression hardened even further.

Anyway, I thought I should end the joke here.

“Don’t worry, I’m joking. Actually, I put a sound blocking spell on this room earlier.”

“When did you take that again…”

“Is it magic?”

Unlike Veronica, who glared at him asking when he had done that again, Albert gave him a curious look.

“Is this your first time seeing magic?”

“Yes. I have no magical talent.”

“No, that’s not it. As far as I know, Princess Rebecca also has excellent magical talents.”

Actually, it was not at the level I knew.

I actually witnessed it with his own two eyes.

On his birthday, he threw a fireball into Viscount Young-shik, who had flirted with the princess.

He had seen countless fireballs while practicing magic, but he had never seen such a huge fireball.

‘······It was said that we should continue to receive treatment from the church for three months.’

It wasn’t that I didn’t feel sorry for Viscount Young-sik.

It wouldn’t have happened if Viscount Young-sik hadn’t flirted with the princess in the first place.

It’s true that he was a bit flirtatious.

He was not overflowing with mercy even to those who reap what he sowed.

When it was as certain as it was generous, the person who was certain was Mikhail Schelgart as the crown prince.

Even because of his position as crown prince, he had to be certain when he was certain.

“Your Highness?”

“······Ah, I’ve been thinking about something else for a while. I’m sorry.”

“I’m fine.”

“Anyway, I meant that it’s amazing that Princess Rebecca’s fiancé, who is so talented in magic, is seeing magic for the first time.”

“······Is that so?”

Alber’s expression looked strangely pensive.

As if he had touched a painful part of me.

“I don’t think I’m going to hide it from Her Highness, who came to find out who I am. Actually, I’m not on good terms with the princess.”

“····.”

“It’s the face. My parents pushed me to see him a few times, but each time we didn’t really have a conversation.”

It was somewhat expected.

That Rebecca Valencia would not be happy with her fiancé, who was arranged according to her parents’ wishes.

However, it was not to this extent.

“Ah, you don’t have to worry about me. I know at least that I’m not the right person for you.”

“····.”

“I’m well aware that it’s a momentary bond that my parents connected.”

The princess’s fiancé would be someone who thought he wouldn’t be a good fit for her from the start.

I never expected that she would be a person with such low self-esteem.

“Princess Xernias.”

“Perhaps the princess doesn’t like her fiancé who always lies in bed.”

The relationship between the two was drawn in my head.

Rebecca and his dissatisfaction with his own opinions do not mix at all.

Albert doesn’t even try because he thinks he’s lacking.

A betrothal relationship in which neither of you has the slightest intention of approaching the other.

I already felt like my head was hurting.

“····.”

Even Veronica, who would have said anything to him normally, remained silent.

That must mean that the atmosphere in the room is gloomy.

I don’t like this kind of atmosphere, so even Veronica, who always bothers me, is quiet.

“Young master.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“Would you like to be friends with me?”

“·······Yes?”

And he didn’t like this atmosphere either.

“If you didn’t hear me, I’ll tell you again. Would you like to be friends with me?”

“Why are you suddenly friends with me…”

“Do you need a reason to be friends?”

“····.”

“Just a nod is enough for you, so go ahead and nod.”

“······Degradation.”

I could feel Veronica’s gaze from the side.

I wondered if it had to be done so forcefully or if it could be done in a more friendly way.

As usual, the leader of the knights who blamed him, and the gaze of a subject.

He looked at him as a person who had seen him since childhood.

“Why is that, Knight Commander?”

“This is too…”

“Isn’t this too sudden?”

“······Yes. Deterioration.”

“What does that matter?”

However, he wasn’t the kind of person who cared about other people’s eyes in situations like this.

“It would be nice if you could say it. Since when did I become a person in power who cares about others?”

“Right now, at the last banquet, you were having a hard time getting rid of your anger…”

“Correction. Only in this private relationship.”

“······From the beginning, you didn’t care.”

“Young master, have you heard?”

He looked at Albert, who was still sitting on the bed with a puzzled look on his face.

“I heard that…”

“That’s it. Now that you’re my friend, you should be proud.”

“····.”

“What is that expression of dissatisfaction? Are you dissatisfied with being friends with the imperial prince?”

“No, no. How could I?”

“I like that you are quick to acknowledge unlike Princess Rebecca.”

“······Are you close with Princess Rebecca?”

It’s true that I felt it before.

Albert’s voice trembled whenever he heard the story of Princess Rebecca.

Your manners when dealing with him are a bit, but to the point of being disturbed.

“No, it’s like a complete enemy.”

“·······Yes?”

That kind of thing, Mikhail didn’t like it very much.

“The princess ruined my birthday last time.”

“Somehow…”

“Would you believe me if I told you that I threw a fireball at Youngshik, who teased me?”

“····.”

Alber puts on an expression as if that makes sense.

Staring at Albert like that with pity, Veronica opened her mouth.

“It’s true, Prince Albert. Princess Rebecca threw a very huge fireball.”

“What is that?”

“Anyway, what is certain is that I am not on good terms with Princess Rebecca.”

“Then why…”

Why do you want to be friends with yourself?

You’re not on good terms with the princess, so why do you want to be her friend?

Alber’s dazed face expressed such a sentence.

“I want to tell you that even the famous Rebecca Valencia is a person who makes mistakes after all.”

“····.”

“That Rebecca Valencia is also human, so why can’t you and I, who are much more human-like, not be friends?”

Saying that, Mikhail smiled slightly.

A much more relaxed smile, different from the obligatory smiles so far.

“······Degradation.”

“Why are you calling. Knight Commander.”

“A sudden thought came to my mind, but by any chance, in order to get revenge on Princess Rebecca for her birthday, are you trying to make friends with Prince Albert…?”

“····.”

“Deterioration?”

“Shut up. Knight Commander.”

“····.”

From noble mtl dot com

I was never happy that I had laid the groundwork to avenge her birthday.

“Your Highness? Could it be that the Knight Commander’s words…”

“You should also keep your mouth shut for now.”

“····.”

Absolutely not.

Anyway, it was absolutely not.

I couldn’t bet the crown prince’s honor, but it wasn’t anyway.

“Really…”

“No.”

“Yes.”

After all, he was just a child who hadn’t gone through the coming-of-age ceremony yet.
