Chapter 77 (1/2)
The Reincarnated Princess’ Blunder
“I don't have much left…”
Counting the pouches lined up on the bed, I muttered dejectedly
The h that's a given since I've been handing theht
There's still so and the intestinal et to use any of the bandages
I checked each pouch carefully again before putting their contents back in when I felt a gaze on me
I raised ht I eventually ended up averting h
Don't you feel aard if you keep staring like that? Not even in the slightest? Well, it wouldn't be Klaus if he picked up on these things though, yeah
“…If you have so to say then say it”
“No, nothing in particular”
“Keep staring at h me”
I tapped on a pouch before giving a sigh
Klaus was brooding over my words with a hand under his chin
“It could sih…”
Cure that twisted habit of yours! Right now!
“I have given soht on it, but I didn’t mean to tell you”
So, the answer to my question is a 'no'?
I don't know if he's just acting or if he really has a screw loose in his head, this guy
“So, ere you thinking about?”
I blurted out the question on a ithout much interest
Klaus silentlyimportant'
“My Lord said that helping others is second nature to you”
I was surprised at those words
“That’s not true”
“Your actions of ”helping others” including ones that you don't even realise, even when you're the one who pulled the short straw you didn't stop It's true isn't it?”
He wasn't teasing ust in his voice either
But somehoas irritated
”I didn't pull any short straw”
”Even if you help others, they are only a drop in the ocean Even if ”Mary” saved the life of a maid, it still wouldn't be considered the achievements of a ”Princess””
“!”
Klaus looked straight at me and I held my breath
I thought back to the conversation between Wolf and Paul
In the end, Princess Rosemary was considered to be a selfish, spoilt princess Some people still think favourably of me, but that's because of my brothers' and father's various achieve to do with my own accomplishments
Klaus didn't hold back and went straight to the point When I realised my blunder, I looked down My clenched hands left wrinkles on the bed sheets
“But even so, I can't just leave anyone in need alone, and I believe that that person is you”
“…Eh?”
A weird voice leaked out
I raised ain Klaus tilted his head curiously as I staggered
“That’s it?”
“Yes, that's it”
I thought for sure he was going to lecture me
Looking at his face, he was telling the truth that that's all he wanted to say
