Chapter 116 True nature
“Deuban…why must you approach me so silently?
Although he must have noticed the slight displeasure in my tone, the man approaching from behind retained his smile .
“Ah ha, please accept my apologies! It’s really second nature for me . Please forgive me . ”
“Even when you speak seriously, I can’t take your words to heart . ”
“Of course it’s natural that you would think this way, especially given your perspective…what a pretty wrist, fitting for a princess of this nation!”
“…I am thankful to you . You taught me so much and protected me, after all! So you don’t have to try and impress or flatter me to get me to listen to you . What do you have to say this time?”
“I’m not here to request anything, just to chat for a bit about the day-to-day . ”
“The day-to-day?”
“Exactly . Miss, didn’t you used to favor gowns made of Armenia silk? They’ve finally begun to become available in small amounts on the market . ”
“Ah…those beautiful gowns! Honestly, I really want one . ”
“I thought so too . Well, as long as you flirt with the prince a bit, he would buy it for you . No doubt about it . ”
“Heh…is that what you think, Deuban? If I’m going to be honest, I agree with you as well . ”
The thought of Edward trying his hardest to get me one of those gowns made me laugh out loud .
“But that’s risky too . That territory is already gathering up so much wealth . If they manage to gather up more…”
“…True . But this is all your fault, Deuban!”
“Oh? How so?”
“It’s all because your plan from before failed that she could even stay within the society of nobles . I even introduced you to the pope and everything . But because you failed, she’s obtained even greater power!”

“It really is my fault . I had your help, yet this is how things turned out…I am truly sorry!”
“Dammit…don’t fail again next time . ”
“Yes, Miss…forgive me for speaking my mind, but you really do hate that duke’s daughter . ”
“Oh, absolutely . She was born with everything and enjoys it all with a look of entitlement that disgusts me . I was hoping I could see her in a flustered state when she left the Academy…”
I couldn’t help but glance at the window . My own face was reflected there .
“All this time, back when I lived in those streets below I’ve thought the same thing . That isn’t the world I belong in . I’m so cute, I couldn’t just be buried in that sort of place! So I worked hard to get where I am now . I can’t give up until I achieve my goal . ”
“How dependable you are . ”
“One day, this nation will belong to me . Heh heh, I really look forward to that day!”
Without realizing it, I seemed to have gotten a bit too excited and wasn’t even thinking to control the volume of my voice . Deuban applauded my speech .
“Speaking of which, according to your recommendations, I stopped interacting with Van and he disappeared immediately afterwards…was this really a good idea?”
“Of course . Allowing him to remain by your side is no longer beneficial . It’s only after you chase him off that he’ll do something useful!”
“Fu fu…in that case, I look forward to seeing what happens!”
“Definitely…how has your relationship with the prince been going?”
“Very well . It’s a little embarrassing to talk about, but he really is adorable!”
“Well, well…you won’t fall into the same traps your mother did, right? I’m worried for you . ”
His words were like a spray of cold water to the face . My heart became cold . And I was originally in such a good mood too .
“I am different from my mother . I won’t become what she did . ”
“That’s good to hear . Well then, my time here is almost up . Please allow me to come by and visit you next time again . ”
“Ah, I look forward to seeing you again . ”
