「Marsha, congratulations on breaking off the engagement!」

“Clap, clap, clap,” and I, who am being congratulated with a grand applause. The people applauding me are Myra-sama, Mary, and His Majesty.

「Thank you.」

「Ufufu, finally, finally.」

Myra-sama was in a great mood, and I felt sorry that she was so concerned about me, but at the same time, I was glad that she was concerned about me.

「Congratulations, Marsha-san! Now you can go about your marital activities without any worries!」

「Y–Yeah… okay…?」

Yeah, yeah, I know, Mary. The fact that I decided to break off the engagement this time was to become a nanny for the heir to the family that would be born in the future. And, of course, that I have to enter into a marriage to do so. But you know what?

「Ah, Marsha-san, you look so frightened at this point in time!」

「Eh, no, I’m not frightened…?」

Just, well, you know. What can I say?

「Although the case has been solved, there are still many unexplained things, aren’t there? I wonder if I am capable of doing marriage activity comfortably in such a situation. I just felt uneasy about it, yeah.」

「Eh, that’s not an excuse, is it?」

It is true that I am not entirely sure, but I am also worried.

「Well, yes. I can certainly understand why you’re worried, as Marsha says, there’s so much that’s inexplicable.」

「That’s right!」

I was relieved to hear that Ryniel-sama agreed with me. I wasn’t the only one who thought so.

「But I can’t help thinking about it now. It’s useless to think about it.」

「Yes. Your Majesty is right.『What you think about but can’t solve will definitely come back to haunt you, so don’t neglect to prepare yourself so that you can take appropriate action when the time comes.』It was Marsha who told me that, wasn’t it? What if she doesn’t want to do it?」

「…urk!」

When you say that, I can’t argue with you.

「You’re usually so nonchalant, but when it comes to this category, you really are a clod, Marsha-san!」

Sorry about that. Even with this, I am working very hard, under the training of Ryniel-sama on a daily basis!

「Well, that’s how bad you feel, right? Don’t be too hard on them all.」

Eh, I’m a little surprised. Did you eat something strange, Douglas-sama?

「Oh, that’s unusual. Usually Doug is the one abusing Marsha, but today he’s defending her.」

Apparently, I was not the only one who thought so.

「That’s not what I meant… oh, yeah, that.」

「What the, speak up, Doug.」

His Majesty urges Douglas-sama, who does not speak clearly.

「Ah, what can I say, brotherly love for his sister?」

You’re not my brother.

「You are not Marsha’s brother.」

「Her brother is somewhere else, you know.」

「I mean, how long are you going to stay in that setting?」

「I think it would be a good idea for you to continue that set-up, too, Commander.」

It is concentrated fire. Poor Douglas-san.

「O–Oh. It feels like hitting a hornet’s nest.」

「Really, it is.」

I appreciate the fact that he offered his help, but I would have liked to have had him help me exactly anyway. Well, that’s just like Douglas-sama.

「And even so, it is certainly a bit odd that the motive for this case was to replace the Royal Princess. Because even if Alia Bollelan’s plan succeeded in banishing the princess, a baroness can’t become a princess so easily, right?」

What Mary said was right. And yet, Alia Bolellan delusionally believed that she could sit in that seat. Why was she so full of such baseless confidence is a mystery to me.

「If she were to sit in the royal consort’s seat, she would need to be at least a countess. Unless, like Princess Priscilla, she was adopted by a high ranking noble… But I don’t think that the current high ranking nobility would want to adopt a child and still want a seat at the Royal Princess’ stead. It’s not a good idea at all.」

「Yes, that’s right. It has been decided they will become subjects once there is an heir.」

That’s right. Whatever Alia Bollelan’s plans, the Royal Princess will become a grand duchess in the near future. She will no longer be royalty.

Did Alia Bollelan really want the position of Royal Princess, or did she want to be the Prince’s personal wife?

「I guess that truth is now in the dark.」

His Majesty said so with a deep sigh. Yes, we will never know that again.

Alia Bollela , who was caught that night, was said to have agreed to be interviewed afterwards as if she had lost her possession. A few days later, she was found dead. The suspicion was that she was trying to keep her mouth shut, but nothing suspicious was found, and the case was settled as a sudden death.

「Uggghhh, no more gloom and doom!」

I was perturbed by Myra-sama’s pouty face that blew away the gloomy air.

「M–Myra-sama?」

Wai–, because that cheek puffing is not good. Take the air out, take the air out, Myra-sama!

「Nnnnghhh!! It’s my Marsha’s engagement breakup tea party today!」

「Eh, eh, ah, yes. Thank you for that.」

Yeah-yeah, I’m sorry we ruined your thoughtfulness, Myra-sama. I apologize, but please put that face back on. It’s a shame to see your beautiful face!

「And the pouty Myra is adorable too.」

「Thank you, Your Majesty. I love you.」

No, this idiot couple.

「Ugh, you know what Marsha needs to do?」

“Mumumu,” I tilted my head and thought about it.

「…Marriage activity?」

When I answered and peeked, Myra-sama made a big batten with her arms in front of her body.

「Buubuu!! Sorry, wrong answer!」

「Eh, that’s wrong?」

I thought that if you have different things to worry about and think about, then it’s marriage life back to the beginning, but I didn’t expect it to be incorrect.

「Okay. May I answer that question?」

「Yes, Mary. Please answer.」

「I think the correct answer is『Congratulations on your broken engagement and enjoy the tea party!』」

Eh, really? There’s no way.

「Kyaah, Mary, that is correct!」

「No way.」

「It’s true. You’re not done yet, Marsha-san!」

The two of them were laughing at each other, and I felt weak. My shoulders slumped, and Myra-sama held up her finger in front of me and looked at me.

「You see? I know you’re anxious, but don’t let that anxiety cause you to miss out on all the fun.」

「… That’s true, but,」

「Yes, I know. And Marsha will be fine. You got us! Don’t worry, I’ll be very careful and selective in my search for your marriage partner.」

I’m kind of hoping for that.

「I’ll help you with that.」

「Eh… you too, Your Majesty…?」

Anxieties that came out of my mouth unintentionally.

「Why can’t I help you?」

「No, that’s not what I meant.」

It just makes me more anxious.

「Don’t worry. You’ll be in a big boat.」

「Ah, yes…」

I am sincerely anxious, but definitely more efficient than searching on my own. But I am anxious.

「Well, well, don’t look so anxious.」

「H–Haah…」

I put my hand over my face, wondering if I was being so facetious when I was so admonished by Ryniel-sama.

「By the way, Marsha.」

「Yes?」

What is it? Is there something wrong with me besides my expression?

「Take this.」

“Nhn?” I looked at what he held out to me, and there was a hair ornament that Ryniel-sama had given me.

「…Ah.」

「I received this from the 1st Unit. They asked me to return it to you.」

The hair ornament I threw out of that small half-underground window to make my presence known. It’s a reminder and a favor (benefactor?) given to me by Ryniel-sama.

I used this hair ornament, partly because at that time I wanted to mark the occasion with an item that I could identify with certainty as me. But I had half resigned myself to the fact that I would never get it back from Ryniel-sama, since he had given it to me, but it didn’t come back. I’m glad it’s back.

「Well, thank you very much.」

I was about to reach for the hair ornament to accept it, when his face broke into a smile.

「Ryniel-sama…?」

Nhhn? What is that silent restraint?

Puzzled, I hear Myra-sama’s coughing and turn to look at her. There, Myra and Mary gestured and whispered,『Bend over!』with the command “Gatten!”

Ah, yes-yes. You want to decorate me, I get it. This is also training, training to be treated like a woman. This is the second time this has happened, so it’s a bit of a tease, ahhahha.

I casually leaned my head back, laughing inwardly, and when Ryniel-sama’s hand came around my head, my body reacted in an unexpected way.

「Hah?」「Eh?」「Yes?」「Ah?」「……Uwaah…」

With a buzz, I jumped backward with all my might, and was met with the stunned voices of everyone flying toward me.

「H–Huh… huuuh…!?」

I, too, was confused by my own behavior, as my mask of a lady-in-waiting fell off.

Goosebumps broke out all over my body, not to mention my arms, and I broke out in a profusion of cold sweat. I could tell without looking in the mirror that my complexion was pale, and as expected, I had to be aware that this was a bad idea.

「…This is another tedious one…」

I looked fearfully at the line that His Majesty snarled at me, and the awkward and troubled looks that came back to me made me break out in a different kind of cold sweat than before.

What’s thaaaaaaat～～～～??

What’s going to happen now, my marriage situation!!
