Chapter 50: 41

Let's talk about the previous timeline for a little bit.

The incident with Tiona also happened in the previous timeline.

On the day of the party, Tiona, who was locked, was rescued by her attendant and arrived late at the venue.

Once there, she was invited by Prince Sion to be his dance partner and performed a brilliant dance, gaining the respect of all the students.

The biggest difference was that Anne didn't help with the rescue.

The maid that Mia brought with her was the third daughter of a noble from the capital. Although she listened to Mia, she was never a hard worker, and by the time everything happened, she was having a tea party with her friends.

So, only Keithwood and Liora rescued Tiona.

And about the ruined dress, they turned to the school's president, Rafina.

That was where the powerful connection between Tiona, leader of the Tearmoon Empire's revolution, Prince Sion, her ally, and the saint Rafina, her backer, was born.

And the first suspect of being the culprid was Mia, who was at the top of the imperial noble society.

When Mia found out about that, she didn't do much to clear up the suspicions.

She didn't really care about what happened to the daughter of a countryside noble, nor did she care about the suspicion that was cast on her.

It was normal for nobles to oppress commoners, and in the same way, there was nothing wrong with a noble from the capital to oppress a noble from the countryside.

It is hard to determine when the spark of the imperial revolution was born...

Some say it was due to famine, others mention the tyranny of the major nobles or the incompetence of the emperor.

However, if we ask when the guillotining of the Imperial Princess Mia was set in place, we can say that it started with this very incident.

The powerfull current of history was about to push Mia to the guillotine.

But now, Anne is bravely standing in the way of such current, that is supposed to lead towards destruction.

[Mia-sama? The culprit?]

Anne murmured, but right after.

[As if that could be true.]

She started laughing.

The story was so absurd that she started laughing instead of getting angry.

[Mr. Keithwood, stop joking around.]

(Not even a shred of doubt, heh...)

Keithwood was impressed by Anne's reaction.

(Looks like she got a handle on her aides' heart.)

In fact, Keithwood didn't believe Mia was the culprit. But still, just in case, he said that to see Anne's reaction...

[Ah, um. Mr. Keithwood, I don't think Her Highness Mia would do something like that either.]

Tiona, the victim, interjected from the side.

[I see. Well, if the victim herself says so, I don't have much choice but to accept it.]

He shrugged his shoulders.

Anne spoke to him in a quiet voice.

[Mr. Keithwood, perhaps in your kingdom, there is such a thing as those who stand at the top taking responsibility for those below them. In that sense, what the nobles from the Empire did might be Mia-sama's responsibility.]

Oddly enough, this logic was the same logic that made Rafina despise Mia in the previous timeline.

Rafina didn't think Mia was the direct culprit.

She was just disappointed that Mia, who was in a position to condemn their coward actions toward the weak, tolerated it instead.

She was unqualified to be a ruler.

That is why Mia could never become Rafina's friend. Because she had been branded as unqualified.

[So, with all due respect, for now I would like to take the responsibility as Mia-sama's arms. I'll make sure that Tiona-sama gets to the venue!]

A enthusiastic statement from "Mia-sama's arms" deputy.

For Mia herself though, it was more like a horror story where her arms move on their own and try to save her enemy.

[Tiona-sama, please, sit down. I'm going to fix your makeup now.]

Anne's handwork was unbelievably fast.

After all, she had just done the same thing for Mia.

...Thinking about it properly, you could say she used her own master as a guinea pig.

(Could it be that Mia anticipated this, and made me do her makeup twice for me to get some practice? That is impossible, right?)

Of course, that's impossible.

Even Anne, who had been infected by Miaitis, can see that this much is pushing it.

She had been infected enough to entertain the possibility though.

(I have to do my best to live up to Mia-sama's expectations)

Mia's arms enthusiastically changed the course of history with brute force.
