Chapter 4

In the end, a party is meant to be a place to gather and exchange information.

Riley kept giving me such a lecture about things. In my previous life, I was the leader of my country. I already know all this without some servant telling me. Well, the Iceberg Empire is a little…… er…… since it’s mostly muscles for brains, the parties are mostly about drinking…… However, even though I have no experience, it’s not a problem. After all, from any angle, no matter how you look at me, I’m the Demon King whose conduct is faultless! I’m also great at dancing.

After I danced with my escort Heath once, we separated. Since we’re engaged, shouldn’t you at least dance two songs with me is what I thought but, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d’s only a pig who’s madly in love with a country b.u.mpkin little girl. Me too, I ought to at least do something as well with all the men entranced by my beauty as well in exchange (also since I need to keep up the appearance of an innocent girl), so I’ll allow and turn a blind eye towards the little girls casting flirtatious glances at Heath.

Well, tonight’s main event is about the “heroine-sama” after all.

“Hehehe.”

“Oh my, you seem to be in a good mood tonight.”

“Yes, I’m in a very good mood. Maybe it’s because you’re so good at leading the dance?”

This boy, what was his name again? W, wait, it’s not because I’m dumb. It’s just that human males lack distinguis.h.i.+ng features. It would have been easier if he had horns and wings. Even though girls are each special in their own way, boys are so plain and boring.

And so, I was able to get along well with my partner to some extent (I’m just pretending), and I chatted a bit with the other girls.

The heroine in question finally appeared.

She was nervously hiding behind her adopted father Marquis Rickson, who looked like a priest, and was staring at everything around her restlessly with wide eyes in wonder. She had blonde hair tied up in a bun on top of her head, and was wearing a crimson dress that covered her whole body.

How to put it……

“Disgusting…… Urgh……!”

Her face is first cla.s.s, and there was a slight flush of red to her cheeks on her porcelain white skin, and even her eyes get pa.s.sing marks as well! Even her smile alone was making three or four boys stagger at the sight! And how splendid her dancing is! Unbelievable!

“Well, she’s just a stinking commoner girl.”

“What on earth are those hair accessories. She’s got the stench of poorness.”

I greatly agree with my new (provisional) female friends’ opinions. It’s preferable that they say what I’m thinking. She has a much more beautiful face than she deserves!

I love beautiful things. The more polished they are, the more I love them. That’s why I absolutely can’t forgive that little girl, Hendra Rickson! She also seems to be not very athletic. Even though she’s a commoner, what’s with that skinny wrist! She probably can’t even kill a single cow!

“……!”

I gulped down the fruit juice next to me in an instant. If I didn’t do so, my pretense of being an innocent girl would have unraveled immediately. Honestly, it’s to the point where I really wanted to drink the blood of a hot guy.

What’s more, this blonde country b.u.mpkin is going to steal the only boy I’ve ever allowed to possibly marry me. Even though she’s blonde, she seems quite intelligent.

Everyone’s bad taste was just as high as my demon father Gemyar’s, who only loved to collect dwarf eyes because he thought they were cute.

Such bad taste. Such vulgar taste. She doesn’t deserve to have that beautiful face. I casually hid my face by pretending that I was dizzy.

I’ve decided. I’m going to kill her. I’m going to kill that little girl. I’m going to kill that idiot who defiled the name of beauty.

“Uh, Rosewood, are you alright?”
