「Even I wouldn’t be unfaithful to my fiancée.」

If this were precious metal instead of a flower ring, though, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was suspected of infidelity.

「That’s true, too. No matter how much you like it, if you’re being courted by someone other than your fiancée, you’re getting very ahead of yourself.」

「Fufu, if there is such a person, I would be delighted.」

It is an inadvertent true statement.

「Delighted… you say?」

I let out a giggle at Noah-sama’s dubious look.

「There is no future with my current fiancée. Our engagement will definitely be off the table, and I will have to find a new fiancée if that happens.」

In order to be the nanny of the heir to the throne, marriage is absolute, no matter how difficult it may be for me in terms of age.

「It may be a bit much, but I would be happy if there were people who wanted me. I’m not young anymore, and my reputation isn’t good.」

I’m not belittling myself, but I properly accept that as a fact. It’s true that my reputation is much higher than before, thanks to Noah-sama. But it doesn’t change the fact that I am past the marriageable age or the fact that my fiancé treated me disrespectfully. Even being called a “brilliant woman” is a reason to be shunned in our country, where male chauvinism is still deeply rooted.

If there is someone who wants me, it should preferably be someone who isn’t a nobody, but someone who is decent in his own way. At worst, I will have to cling to the authority of Their Majesties. I want that to be a last resort. Unwanted marriages produce nothing but misfortune.

「About that…」

I panicked when Noah-sama choked on his words.

「I–I am sorry. I only meant to embarrass myself by saying this to you, Noah-sama. Think of it as the ramblings of an unattractive woman.」

I shouldn’t, I shouldn’t have done that. My desire and anxiety leaked out.

「Don’t talk like that. It is outrageous to say that you are unattractive.」

「Fufu, thank you very much.」

Even though I know it is comforting, I am glad to hear it.

「You’re so kind, Noah-sama.」

Much more than I do.

「Marsha-dono, I…」

At that moment, Noah-sama was about to say something.

「Marsha!!!」

A voice I didn’t want to hear called my name out loud. No, it was more like being yelled at.

「……Raul… why are you in here…?」

Raul was there, as if waiting for me, in the corridor leading to the Queen’s Palace.

「I’ve been waiting for you, Marsha. I need to talk to you.」

He had no regard for my convenience.

「I don’t have to.」

Besides, I am talking to Noah-sama right now. You are nothing but a distraction, and how self-serving of you to interrupt people’s conversations. If he at least shows a pretense of being offended, why is he glaring at Noah-sama, this fool did dare to!?

「Marsha, please. Listen to me…」

Ehh, I think this is a mistake, that I want to hear『excuse』instead of a『talk.』Of course I don’t have time for that kind of crap.

「I don’t need to hear about it, and if you have time to do this in the first place, wouldn’t you be better off working proactively on the theft case?」

Or what? Do you want me to intercede for you because it’s only a matter of time before you are demoted? I absolutely refuse to do that, you son of a bitch.

「I know. I’m going to clear your name. I promise. So let’s talk…!」

Usually you wouldn’t speak unless I urged you to do so, but today you’re very eloquent. Even this makes me angry.

「Then will you please make sure you get it all sorted out?」

If that’s the case, I’m willing to listen to you at least a hundred steps. After you are demoted from your position as commander of the 4th Unit.

「Then it’s too late…」

Yes, talk about cronyism, assertion. It’s stupid and repulsive.

「You don’t know what your words mean to her, do you?」

Perhaps his disgust was showing, but as he interrupted his body between me and Raul to protect me, Noah-sama said.

「This is none of your business. I’m going to have to ask you to stay out of this!」

Raul’s anger intensifies when Noah-sama interrupts him.

「I find it hard to understand your point of view. It was you who originally forced your way into my conversation with her, though, wasn’t it?」

「That…!」

「And what about forcing her to do it even though she doesn’t want to?」

“Is that the proper way to be a knight,” Noah-sama says with a contemptuous look in his eyes.

「…kuh!」

It’s pathetic that he can’t even say it back. And I don’t think Raul has ever experienced a look of contempt or disgust. He has always been looked at with respect, admiration, and longing.

「Well, I guess that’s that, then.」

I don’t want to talk to Raul any more. I don’t even want to look at him. I turn on my heel and walk away with my back to Raul.

「Marsha…!」

Even after all this, I still feel nauseous when Raul calls my name as if he is clinging to me without giving up.

「Will you even stop…」

Just as I was about to shout, “it,” throwing off my lady’s mask, the noise coming from the Queen’s Palace stopped me from speaking. The noise made everyone turn their heads to the Queen’s Palace.

「Marsha-sama, Marsha-sama!! There’s a huge problem!!」

Running out of the Queen’s Palace were the maids attached to the Queen’s Palace and members of the 2nd Unit.

What a day! I was so surprised that Noah-sama, Raul, and even the maids and knights of the queen’s palace called me up.

「What’s wrong?」

The maid, looking more flustered than ever, tries to explain with gestures but can’t get the point across.

「Calm down, it’s alright. Now, take a deep breath and when you calm down, will you tell me what happened?」

After rubbing the maid’s back to calm her down, she slowly began to talk about the situation.
