The melody of music began to flow out calmly. Ririana and Hajime were sticking close to one another as their bodies shook waveringly gracefully. Ririana whispered quietly while her face drawn close to his shoulder.
[......Thank you very much for a little while ago]
[As I thought, it was that…....so you know]
[Such an insane situation, it couldn’t be anyone but you right? Besides, your “Deep Red” is very beautiful…...I wouldn’t mistake that]
[Is that so? Ma~a, the first prince of the Empire is also stuck with that, it’s only a temporary measure though*Thanks The_Codfish, I thought it sounded odd lol*. Sooner or later]
[You’re just saying it blatantly huh. …..But, even if it was just an example I was glad. I heard from Kaori about when you saved them, I longed for that a little bit]
She said as she separated from Hajime’s shoulder with a little smile on her face. That smile was Ririana’s original charm which couldn’t be compared to with the one seen with Bias a while ago, the surrounding aristocrats which were paying attention became slightly noisy when they noticed.
[And, are various things settled about your attitude in that dress?]
[Does it not match me?]
[It suits you. But, as expected that pink dress would have suited you more. Did you plan on insinuating*hint that something bad had happened* them to reveal the truth?]
[Yes, because this degree is enough for a husband who assaults his wife…...more so…..as expected you saw everything through that spider huh. …..My improper appearance….a~a, I’m not fit to be a bride anymore]
Yoyoyo~! then, towards Ririana who buried her face onto Hajime’s shoulder again while pretending to break down, [What are you talking about….], Hajime looked at her with a ridiculous expression.
[Despite saying it in a low voice, don’t say such seldom remarks in such a place. Or rather, haven’t you been making too much contact since a while ago? The crowned prince has quite the incredible expression?]
[It’s fine isn’t it. Once this night ends I’ll be the crown princess. Just for now, allow me to be just a girl. Also, I’ll be assaulted one day, can’t you succumb to the selfishness of a pitiful bullied princess for a little while?]
[Being assaulted, it’s not set that you’ll be bullied……]
[It’s already a fact]
There Ririana, while hiding her expression by clinging onto Hajime tightly, suddenly muttered something as if on accident.
[......If…….if, I said “Help” what would you do?]
