She said something about telling the headmaster about it, but I suspect it was just to draw my attention.
That’s something adorable about her.
I wish she could be a little honest, that way she’d be cuter. Though, she’s cute when you consider that she likes me.
However, an honest and obedient woman is still preferable for marriage.
I’m sorry, Sufia, but you would be a concubine at best.
“Karendoll, what’s going on? It’s not like you to raise your voice.”
I walked over to Karendoll, who was still arguing with Bridgette and said that to her.
“You’re the loud one, you scumbag. Can’t you see I’m having an important conversation with Bridgette? If you can’t tell, then get out of my way.”
“Sc— scum… you say?”
However, Karendoll’s reaction was not quite what I had expected, and she tried to dismiss me in a tone that sounded like she was deeply bothered by me.
“Ha? I wonder if what your highness did has been erased from your mind? I heard from Sufia that when she got kidnapped, in an attempt to save your petty life, you were ready to give Sufia to the bandits… And you still dare to say that it was all her mistake?”
Since Karendoll seems to have misunderstood something, I needed to clear up the misunderstanding.
I never thought she’d be this stupid and painstakingly slow.
“Ah, about that? As you know, I am the future heir to this empire. When it comes to the value of life in between me and the rest, I am worth protecting even if it means sacrificing Sufia to the bandits, which is only natural that I should do so. Besides, if that were to happen, Sufia would be able to boast to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren for generations to come that she had protected me, a member of the royal family and the future emperor, by sacrificing herself. Wouldn’t that be an honour for Sufia and for the barony, the Lavinia family? So it was a win-win situation, so why would I be the scum?”
“… You really are the worst person I’ve ever seen. So different from Kaisar-sama.”
Even though I explained it to her carefully so that even an idiot could understand, for some reason, Karendoll’s eyes turned to look at me as if she was looking at dirt, and she even said something like that trash of a Kaisar is better than me.
I guess that means that not only Bridgette but also Karendoll got brainwashed in some way.
