Chapter 32
When Flora gave a response with a troubled look, Alexei smiled faintly. And, standing up, he slowly offered his hand to Flora.
Flora’s eyes widened, but she took Alexei’s hand and slowly stood up assisted.
Ahh, big brother, you’re wonderful! The two of you are as beautiful as a painting!
But… does this mean…
A flag has been raised?
I wonder… What’s going to happen from now on…
Even though I don’t think there was a route that allowed you to capture my big brother…But he didn’t show up for this event in the game, either. Since he came running in like this, is this the start of a new route?
I was a disappointing girl whose love life was her dark history, so I’ve got no hope if the story diverges from the game’s flow.
If that’s the case, as happy as I am for my brother, I’ll feel a bit lonely… even though I was happy to be reincarnated as my brother’s sister, I wish I had at least tried to capture him in my previous life.
“That’s good.”
Huh?!
My heart almost jumped out of my throat at the voice that came out of nowhere. At some point, it seemed that Mikhail had arrived and had ever since been standing by my side.
Ahh, I’m sorry, prince! I completely forgot about your existence!
There’s no way I can let him find out about this!
While I was thinking that, I noticed Mikhail’s eyes had a glimmer in them.
It didn’t seem that he was angry but rather amused… Why does it feel like he knows what I’m thinking right now…
“When people find out that the Yurinovas are officially the shield of the Lady of the Cerny Family, her school life should become peaceful. Even if you don’t always keep an eye on her, she’ll be safe.”
Prince… So you knew that Flora was being bullied. Even though you’re the royal prince, you’re truly a down-to-earth person.
That reminds me, even when he talked to me before, I did think of him as a sharp-eyed person.
While I mused on that, I realized. The prince’s uniform was caked with dust.
Oh no… it’s from the wall of earth from earlier! I was trying to protect my brother and the prince from the demonic beast, but I ended up not being able to control it and it collapsed…
“Your Highness, I truly apologize.”
Ekaterina anxiously tried to dust off Mikhail’s uniform.
If I think about it now, that wall was completely unnecessary huh…
My brother and the prince could’ve probably handled it better on their own.
If anything, it only helped the beast by giving it a leverage to leap from, and because I lost control of it, it collapsed on top of them, rendering it impossible for them to release their magic…
I just put myself in trouble, that’s all. How absolutely useless…
“Your Highness, I am truly grateful that someone of your stature came to help. But even so, I ended up doing something so impolite…”
I mumbled despondently. And then, Mikhail began to grin.
“Well, I had received something delicious from you prior to this incident after all. Your cooking is truly something precious.”
… So this is the power of feeding someone.
Well, even though it’s actually probably due to the rules of the game. In the game, it’s scripted that the prince would come and save the heroine, so that’s probably why.
“Additionally, Alexei and I are currently training for magic battles. We also have experience of engaging with magical beasts in battles. Since you don’t have that kind of training yourself, of course you’d run out of magic at that point.”
Uu… I don’t know if you’re covering for me or attacking me…
Say, hold on a second. Whaddaya think you’re doin’, takin’ care of magical beasts when you’re first in line for succession ‘n all!
