Chapter 11 Part2 (2/2)

Everyone glanced between Mary and Alicia, waiting for the next word. In that tense atmosphere, Mary could still raised the corner of her mouth in expectation.

This was also exasperatingly like the game.

And this question was also the helping hand that in-game Alicia offered Mary at the end.

Alicia was going to forgive Mary if she had apologized in recognition of her fault at this question. In the end, all the routes ended up with that not happening, Alicia declared Mary as the ‘bad custom', a victim more than anyone else but that was still can be changed. It was a very merciful story.

Of course, it was not something to destroy Mary as a villainous n.o.ble daughter, but only for once, in the front of this crowd, she wanted Mary to recognize the error of her action by herself.  Because her selfish and outrageous behavior was the embodiment of n.o.ble's bad side.

Howover, in-game Mary didn't notice Alicia's mercy and answered her question full with dissatisfaction.

“As expected, a country b.u.mpkin's way of thought is laughable.”

So she said.

To that, in-game Alicia could only stare at Mary, sighed, threw all mercy and denounced her.

That's why, even if it's a mistake, a

“Yes! Thank you very much! “

with such happy expression was not how Alicia should reply.

“…Eh? “

“I'm thinking to do my part as the princess without losing my ident.i.ty. I knew Mary-sama would understand! “

“…Wa, wait a moment.”

“To think about it this way too, all because of Mary-sama! When my status changed, Mary-sama always treat me in the same way. That's why, I come to have some confidence in myself. The way I am is good too, I thought.”

“I, I see, that is good, congratulation… but still, wait a minute…”

“I will do my best! “

“Ee, you can do your best whatever you like…but about my part.”

“If it's Mary-sama, I know you will push my back… I believe you will! Mary-sama, I love you! “

Patrick came on the stage to embrace Alicia's shoulder as she happily talk and announce her love for Mary in loud voice.

The way both of their figures stood side-by-side was similar to DoraGaku scene, but Mary didn't have the time to realize that at the moment.

She should've been denounced for her rude behavior toward Alicia until now, but for some reason she was receiving her grat.i.tude. Additionally, the lovers on the stage said, “Let's support this country together,” with warm gazes that looks as if they were looking at a comrade.

In that situation, even Mary could do nothing and feeling pressured as the crowd rose with a loud cheer, she could only returned and plopped down on her seat.

Her train of thought couldn't keep up with the development, she couldn't even voiced one complaint at Addie who was laughing loudly at her side.
