Chapter 362: The Main Topic
Felisiana’s Side
“Ah! Siana!”
Noticing Siana entering the room, Elizalina called out to her.
This woman… to come to this mansion while I was away at the royal castle with Violet, sit next to Lux-kun, and even touch his arm!
“We were just about to link arms, so Siana-chan, do you want to watch us do it?”
“!”
I almost cut her down on the spot, but forced myself to hold back since Lux-kun was right there.
Then, as she approached the two of them, Siana spoke.
“I will absolutely not allow such a thing!”
With that, Siana pulled Lux away from Elizalina.
“Ah… I haven’t even linked arms with Lux yet, though…”
It was my mistake that Florence linked arms with Lux-kun at the Fourth Royal Exchange Gathering, but there’s no way I’d allow something like that in a situation with no restrictions!
Though she couldn’t say that outright in front of Lux,
If that was the case, then she just needed to take Elizalina out of this room.
“Please step away from my master for now!”
Saying that, Siana made Elizalina stand up.
Then, pushing her from behind, she led her out of the guest room.
“Lux, I’ll be away for just a bit, but let’s talk again later!”
“O-okay!”
Now that I’m back, I won’t allow any ‘later.’
“R-right! Siana, that person is the second prin—”
Lux tried to tell Siana that the person before her was the second princess, Elizalina, but…
At that moment, the guest room door closed.
From Siana’s perspective, if she were told right now that the person in front of her was Elizalina, she wouldn’t be able to act as forcefully as she just did.
In that sense, not hearing it was more convenient.
“Geez, Siana-chan, you’re pretty forceful. Did you want to talk with me alone that badly?”
“Could you not joke around?”
“So cold. Well, whatever… of course I wanted to see Lux today, but if anything, the main reason I came was to see you, Felisiana.”
“…? Me…?”
Felisiana had assumed she came to see Lux again and was plotting something,
So hearing that it wasn’t her main reason left her confused.
“Yeah, more precisely, you and Violet… where is Violet?”
“…Over here.”
At the sound of a calm voice, Violet appeared where no one had been just moments before.
“Wow, as expected. I didn’t notice at all.”
“I’m honored by your praise.”
“With skills like that, how about serving me instead of Felisiana?”
“I must respectfully decline.”
“Ahaha, figures.”
Hearing that exchange, Felisiana let out a sigh.
“You might be half joking, Elizalina-anesama, but when Father tried to take Violet away from me earlier, it was troubling… no, more than that, it was absurd.”
“What!? That sounds interesting!”
Even Elizalina hadn’t known the contents of the letter sent directly to Violet,
So she leaned in with sparkling eyes, and Siana spoke.
“I don’t mind telling you, but this isn’t the place for a long discussion… for now, shall we move to my room?”
“Sounds good! Wow, I’m looking forward to this!”
And so, the three of them moved to Siana’s room.
There, Siana and Violet explained everything that had happened in the throne room.
How the king tried to make Violet submit, but she refused,
How he tried to force her using soldiers, but failed at that as well,
And how, in the end, he fell silent.
And then.
“Ahahahaha! What is that story? That’s hilarious!!”
Elizalina burst into laughter, clearly enjoying herself.
