Chapter 36
Episode 36
Translator : Missme Editor : Aru
I should know the reason even if it feels unfair.
What the hell am I supposed to do with a kid whose face is also unknown to me?
There was no one around, but from the point of view where there was a quarrel for no reason, the words would not go out nicely.
“What, what… What are you doing!”
“Tell me the right way, why did you deliberately do such childish things like splitting the wine?”
“That’s a mistake…”
“Lady Irene Isaac.”
Looking straight into her eyes, I laid down my voice.
“Do I look stupid and idiot to you?”
I said again, watching the opponent’s shoulder flinch.
“Why did you do that?”
Irene kept her little mouth shut and kept her right to stay silent. Then she finally opened her mouth.
“…..because of that.”
“What?”
“It’s, It’s all because of you, the Duke ignores all my letters!”
I wondered what I was hearing at the moment.
The Duke? If it’s the Duke then…..Ash?
Irene’s small face blushed as she shouted.
“It’s all because of you. Do, do you know how much effort I put into writing the letter? It took a week to complete the embroidery. How much, how trembling and nervous I was when I sent it….
“Wa, wait.”
It was hard to understand in many ways. I once threw the most important question.
“Why have I become the reason for Ash ignoring your letter or your embroidery?”
“Because you’re not getting married!”
“…what?”
“You’re at the right age to get married, but you’re not even dating, let alone getting engaged…The Duke is so worried about his sister that he ignores the marriage partner let alone meeting!”
Huh……?
I had a speechless experience of being dumbfounded in a long time.
I felt like I forgot how to speak. My head refused to get into a crash, so I blinked blankly.
The opponent continued in a trembling voice.
“You think I’m the only one who thinks that? Everyone does. Anyone who’s ever sent The Duke a letter knows it! You’re blocking The Duke’s future, you nuisance!”
Then Irene managed to push me in a small, slender frame and quickly disappeared over the hall.
I couldn’t catch such an opponent. I was out of my mind.
It was only a moment before a collapsed single word came out of my mouth.
“Huh?”
What did I just hear?
‘Nuisance?’
I’m blocking Ash’s future?
I was not angry even though I was cursed right in front of my face.
I was genuinely dumbfounded.
“Huh?”
I was so dumbfounded that I staggered from the standing position.
The outside wind was cool. With the help of the Imperial Palace, I was able to change my clothes and plopped myself on the terrace.
I crossed my arms, placed them on the railing, and looked out.
A false laugh came out.
‘What is it? It’s a nuisance.’
The more I thought about it, the more absurd it was.
“I’m blocking Ash’s future? Is it because of me that he neglects his marriage?’
I never imagined.
‘I can’t believe such a rumour was circulating around.’
Irene cried out that she wasn’t the only one thinking this way. That’s all true. Anyone who’s ever sent a letter to Ash knows it.
The letters of marriage and love that flew to Ash were countless in one day.
My head was dizzy.
I closed my eyes tightly and opened them.
Then I hit the railing.
‘It’s not fair.’
Only my hands hurt, but I hit them again.
‘This is so unfair!’
I was filled with anger. It was nothing other than injustice.
Even if the reality and the story in the book are different, it’s too different. In reality, I am trying hard to live my life without dying in Ash’s hands, but I was dumbfounded and frustrated that I was considered a good nuisance to prevent Ash from getting married.
“Even if I die and disappear, someone else will take over my seat anyway. You know?”
It’s not because of me that she can’t get a reply.
Why is it my fault that he doesn’t treat people as human beings because he’s so uninterested?
I spat out all the unheard-of words on the dark outside.
As the injustice soared, I was angry at the same time about why I had to hear such a misunderstanding, but it was also pending for a while.
I got depressed.
The mood was as calm as a stone thrown into the lake.
‘Yes, I suppose so.’
In fact, it was not that I couldn’t understand at all.
It’s true that I’m not seeing anyone else even though I’m at the age of getting married, and it’s true that Ash and I are special siblings in other people’s eyes.
So the matter could have led to the conclusion that I was holding his back.
From the point of view of knowing the truth, I was dumbfounded and stuffy, but apart from that, I could understand.
So I was depressed.
Ash is so good to me that even such a ridiculous misunderstanding arises. We are good siblings.
It was really not pleasant to be confirmed in this way since the illusion would be broken anyway.
“…..”
I raised my head.
What’s wrong with the tear glands these days? I don’t think I was this fragile.
I mean, I’m the one who didn’t cry when I first learned about the true fate after discovering ‘Spring of The Goddess Agrita’ in the old library.
It just didn’t feel real, even though I cried the next day.
Anyway, I don’t make my tear glands lose. I don’t squeeze all the time, I can’t cry again after crying just a few days ago.
Oh, what the hell, is this at the party I attended to empty my head?
I raised my head and gave my eyes strength. Then, I narrowed my forehead.
‘No, but thinking about it makes me dumbfounded.’
Irene Isaac. Come to think of it, isn’t she stupid?
No matter how much you think he ignored her, even if she has a grudge against me, is it ordinary to show it so blatantly and argue with it?
I wouldn’t know if I were the lover, but for now, I’m Ash’s sister and family.
But if I were the lover, I would try and make a good effort to look good, doesn’t she think about it at all?
‘Is it because she’s young? Well, she did look young. Seventeen at most?’
That’s why she’s such a baby. When I looked down at my opponent with that thought, I felt like she was crying a little.
As I was doing that, I heard the opening of the glass door on the terrace.
I set up the curtains to let everyone know that there’s someone inside.
When I looked back strangely, I could see a familiar face. To be exact, it was the face that was becoming familiar recently.
“Your Highness?”
“Princess”
It seemed to me that he didn’t come in by mistake. The prince seemed to pick words somewhere, and soon came close and said,
“I heard there was a commotion. I was out of the office at that time… Are you all right?”
“It’s okay. It wasn’t a big deal.”
I wondered for a moment whether spilling some wine on my dress at the party was disruptive enough to summon the Crown Prince.
“Thank you for your concern.”
Well, anyhow it happened at the palace party, he may feel responsible for even the smallest things.
After changing into the clothes provided by the palace, I was now wearing a light sky blue dress, not a navy one.
The Crown Prince seemed to hesitate for a moment at this time and then opened his mouth.
“It looks good on you. The Dress.”
“Thank you.”
The lights on the terrace were dark, so I don’t know if he could see the colour of the dress properly, but anyway, it was a compliment, so I was grateful.
If there’s something coming, there’s something to give. I gave him a look in his tailcoat.
“You’re more stylish than anyone else today.”
Why didn’t I just say it was cool? It was true that no matter what the clothes he wore, the truth is the crown prince himself is shining.
As soon as I thought so, I could hear the pranky voice of the Crown Prince.
“Is it just the dress?”
Yes?
“Uh, um… Of course, you look very handsome in your own way, but that’s too obvious to omit…..”
“I’m kidding. It’s an honour, though.”
The Crown Prince laughed. He stood side by side with me in front of the railing, so I saw his profile.
Even the dark lighting did not hide the prince’s handsomeness. It was a new but real look.
As soon as I was looking at the statue, my lips were chapped in good shape.
“Princess.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“I said I wouldn’t forget the help I got from the garden, remember?”
“Yes…..that’s what your highness said.”
How long has it been since I heard it?
Maybe he didn’t mean to test his memory, but he continued with a smile.
“It’s amazing. Every time I see the princess, you always look like another person.”
“…..?”
“It’s different when I see you in the temple, and it’s different when I see you today.”
Oh, well, in the temple, it’s…..there’s a reason it’s different, but…..
I could hardly confess my conscience and kept the attitude of a faithful listener.
“I’m already looking forward to how it will be different next time.”
‘Next time?’
I felt that he was just saying it, but there was something strange about it as I heard it, the crown prince turned his head to me.
The eyes met. At a glance, the calm wind seemed to have struck the leaves.
“I hope I have a chance to repay the help I received today. Anytime is fine, so let me know if you need anything. Anything.”
“…..”
“If the princess needed me, it would be a great pleasure for me.”
It was not an illusion to hear the wind. The wind followed the leaves and scattered the crown prince’s hair.
The lights in the party room that came to the terrace through the glass door were subtle.
I blinked my eyes.

“Lady, the dress seems to have changed, is there something wrong with my eyes?”
It was a little early in the night when I left the party
I left the annexe before the party was over. It was a party that would last all night anyway if left alone. I didn’t have the stamina to fit in like that.
I answered Sir Davery as I climbed into the carriage.
“No, you’ve seen it right. I spilled something on my dress and changed it.”
“Ah.”
Exaggerated sighing, Sir Davery continued.
“You said no when I questioned whether many people have grudges against you around.”
