15 Episode 15: The Princesss Visit to Her Home (2/2)
”Al, you have no hope. How dare you go out with a big bad girl! Like? Didn't Yufi and I get along well from the beginning?
”... I don't know how Princess Anisphere looked at Miss Uphilia, but from my point of view she was perfect. So, no one's coming in, he's cold.”
”Hmm? Was Ufi that cold?
”Only from my point of view, though”
I can point my gaze at you like I peep at you from Navre. I guess you're watching how Yuffi reacts when he tells you he's cold. Isn't that a good idea? I think so. I thought being royal, more emotions than necessary, was out of the way. No wonder Uffi was seen that way.
I don't even think that's a bad thing. No, not there. He's still young, too, and I don't know if you can tell me that Yufi means something cold, and I don't want you to know that and I'm not talking about this.
”Shall we get back to it? Anyway, Al took the lead and said he wanted to break his engagement and fight back. So?”
”... so? What...?
”No, so what good were you guys going to get?”
”Profits, profits... trying to correct mistakes, we are!
”Oh, because I don't care about that. Don't bring up words like” right ”or something on this topic. I hate it when people say things that affirm emotional theory.”
Stab the nail first. Correct mistakes and pierce justice. I think that's a good word. If you want to talk about it. But when they do it in the political world, it's a bit of a hassle.
If that's what the winner said, I can still swallow it. It's just a theory of thought if someone who hasn't won or lost talks about it.
”Shall I rephrase it? When I say your interests, can I say that Yufi wanted to make her position better by surfacing her mistakes and making her apologize for her unfair treatment of Miss Raini?
……
”No?
”Ha!... With that said, maybe it is”
”Um, enough to be. You guys acted so presumptuously, you know, Ufi is a kid who doesn't listen to people for a long time, right? That's certainly cold.”
Navru-kun turns a bewildered glance at my words. No, what? I simply want to confirm the facts. I just want to pursue what the origins are and how they traced it.
”Princess Anisphere is on Uphilia's side, isn't she...?
”From a protective standpoint, I'm on your side. So if you're at fault with Uffi, why don't you just make it right? I think so. In fact, there was a verse about Yufi trying not to be too emotional, and I don't think you can help if you don't have enough gaps or feelings to be hated.”
”... Still, do you take Uphilia's side?
”I hope you don't get me wrong, but I'm sheltering Uffi because Alkun unilaterally strangled Uffi. I wouldn't even be stuck in my neck if we were discussing this in agreement. Oh, sorry, you broke into the venue...”
I don't know if I would have sheltered Ufi that far if it hadn't been for that coincidence. Though it is unlikely that he would have gone scouting after all to spare the talent unleashed on the field. I don't care if it's possible that it didn't.
”Why didn't you guys discuss this with Yufi? Were you so stubborn that Uffi refused to negotiate?
”... That's it. If you don't have ears to listen to, think.”
”You didn't have it?
……
”Could it have suddenly been disputed? Without warning?
Navru-kun silenced me with a strong expression in my inquiry. When I saw Navre, who had been silent, I could not bear to zero my sigh as if I were frightened.
”Hey, Navre. I want you to think about it. From what I can tell, it just seems like you trapped Uffi, who came to diplomacy without declaring war.”
”Such a big deal!?”
”That's war because you put on an aristocratic outing. Navru-kun suddenly navru-kun's actions are irrelevant, so I'm going to rebuff you! If they say so, will you shut up?
Navru-kun's complexion is getting worse and worse. Keeping his mouth down, he is folding his back slightly. No, although I can hear you whining small.
Shut up to wait for Navru-kun to calm down. I've been leaning over without saying anything for a while, Navre, but I look up and see you.
”... Calmed down? Can I continue my story?
”... Yes. But let me just ask you one thing. Why are you doing this...?
”I just want to pursue it. What happened and what was the problem? If you've caused problems, you can reflect. If I have to make amends, I will go where I should. Laugh it off if you can laugh at it to the point of scolding it. I can't go back to what happened, and I can't do what I didn't. Then I'm just thinking next.”
”... Yes”
Navru-kun, who is completely grown up, nods with a pale complexion.
”... I'm sorry I'm distracted, can I ask you something too?
”... Yes”
”Were you in love with Miss Raini?
”... I thought he was a poor kid. I need to protect you. She seemed like a child. If you make an effort, you work hard for me. He leans in without saying anything when it's hard. When I say I'm in love, I do think I was attracted to her”
Hmm. If you do just ask, it feels like a pretty girl of dim fortune, and she may be tempted by her manhood.
”Oh well. Weren't you in a low position and not originally a child of nobility? That suddenly puts you in an aristocratic college, and if you're in trouble, you want to give me a hand. If Miss Raini says she's a good girl, it's all the more so. That's why the means you chose are not good.”
”So how do I...”
”Now you can do it.”
”Huh?”
”” You just have to ask someone, ”to someone who's going to be able to fix it. In Yufi's case, I guess Al. Because we have equal standing. Before the rebellion, I might have offered to talk to the Duke of Magenta's house. It's not like your father doesn't have feelings for you if Uffi is so tyrannical, is it? I wonder why we chose to solve it ourselves. I don't know that, and I think that's your failure.”
And you've been a little curious to hear about Navre.
”Al told you about the bullet, didn't he?
”Yes......”
”Was Miss Raini happy about that?
”Huh?”
”I heard Miss Raini was pleased. Did Miss Raini tell you that's what she wants you to do? I'm under the impression that you've heard so much about it, it's good to go out and solve that kind of use of force! I don't think he'd be happy to raise his hands.”
Navru-kun stopped the movement like it was frozen. I trembled as if the magic had been lifted, and I shrunk to grab both my arms.
”... I... I... I...”
”Navru-kun”
”... I'm just saying it's good for her.”
”Yeah.”
”... what have I done...?
I answer nothing to Navru-kun's soliloquy, who has covered his face with both hands. To me, who is not a party, all I can say is the facts that I have observed.
Maybe it seemed to fit correctly and righteously into good results if viewed from a perspective I didn't know about. But I really don't think it's going to be a good story. They were the ones who were stupid when they did what they had to fail to do no matter how they fell.
At the time of occurrence, the viewpoint of the observation will be defined at the time the result is achieved. It would only be strangers like me or as much as I like to look at the process. I can't believe I prefer to devote my efforts to seeking truth and truth.
People live by what they are taught. Do what you have to protect. Something to protect. That varies from person to person, and the way you protect it varies. No one complains if what it is is is just in the mind of an individual.
But if it takes the form of being observed, its eyes are turned. Yes, they're going to point it at me. Later or later, it's too late to notice, and I can't change it anymore.
”... you say that love sickness is very similar to fever. I won't cover what you did, but you were invaded by the disease. Maybe there's room for sympathy. All I can tell you is that you're sad.”
”... did we, from the Anisphere's point of view, make a mistake?
”It's up to you to think carefully about what you've done. I guess the fever of love sickness has caught your blood and cooled off a long time ago? Changing your perspective is an essential skill in pursuing things.”
”... tough guy, the princess”
”That's sweet, you are. Adults are bothering me and wiping my ass. We're kids, kid.”
”... really tough”
”Because you're angry. Whose fault do you think restored the right to inherit the throne? Don't bother.”
I totally dropped my shoulder and leaned down, Navre. Kun.... I don't care if he's any more, I guess he just suffers. It's not like I want to hunt down Navre. It's time to pull.
”Finally. Miss Raini isn't the kind of girl who falls for someone, is she?
”... Yes. That's what I think.”
”Then that was an unfortunate rubbing mistake. Or maybe they were all equally stupid and bad. Failure is what anyone does. What a handful of successes. If it's easy to grasp, everyone won't have a hard time.”
Take a seat and turn your back. I could hear enough of what I wanted to hear. I am satisfied as far as I am concerned with more material for reflection. Whatever happens to Navru-kun later, it just seems like he can honestly work hard enough. I don't want you to do anything else. True.
I guess you found out I was leaving. Navru-kun inquired, keeping his face down.
”Let me hear it from you, too.... What is Miss Uphilia like?
”He was the only one who could have been a queen. As a support for the king, he killed me as an individual to become a symbol of guiding the country, and he became cold. You're a sweet kid for your country, but you might have been cold for people. I guess she's too nice to be nice anymore.”
”... is that right? Thank you.”
To the voice on my back, I told him this without turning around.
”Introducing you at last.... no matter how depressing, stupid, stupid, and hopeless you are. Still, it's surprising that a parent can give a child a hand. If you feel that way, I suggest we discuss it.”
I won't hear back from Navre. Open the door and leave the room. I had eyes for the Knights Commander, who stood outside the room in his absence. He looked at me with an unspeakable look and bowed his head without saying anything.
Without saying anything more, I left the Count Sprout family behind.
