Tensei Reijou wa Shomin no Aji ni Uete Iru

eclared annoyingly.
Hey, how much of an idiot are you treating His Majesty as… still, to think it was about to become this terrifying..

「… Otousama, thank you very much」
「Umu.
By at least coming over, His Majesty won’t try returning to our fief with us.
Let’s make the compromise there」
「… Yes」
「If you understand, return」
「… Yes.
Excuse me」

I trudgingly left the office.
… In the end, I’m unable to avoid the tea party… haa…

While downhearted, I passed the written invitation to Okaasama.

「My, a written invitation has arrived?」

Okaasama received it calmly.

「Okaasama knew as well, huh?」

Mumu… those two are cruel.

「Good grief… you don’t know how much honor it is to be chosen as the candidate for Crown Princess.
I wonder if I made mistake in educating you…」

Okaasama said while sighing.

I don’t think I can accomplish such heavy responsibility」

I don’t want such troublesome title.

「If You, who was born in the Ducal House of Ellisfeed, is blessed with abundant magical power and magic talent, and received the highest education possible is not suitable, then the other noble young ladies should be automatically disqualified」

There are many other dignified young ladies, so choose a person among them… it’s impossible for a commoner like me.
Impossible, impossible!

「Oh well, it’s not something to hurry about.
Anyhow, I won’t forgive you if you feign illness」

Ugh, how did she foresee my actions?

「Yes…」
「Tell Miria to come over here later.
I’d like to talk to her about the dresses we will be wearing」
「Yes…」

Once again, I trudgingly left the room…
