50. Unlucky days
Somi-re, the main character of the atrocious and cruel dog-fighting game called ‘Ropanso’.
Despite being a commoner, he freely uses holy attribute magic to become the center of the world.
In this game, we call her her saintess.
And Frances Descartes who opposes her.
In order to hide her own ‘weakness’, a villain who took control of the social world by acting under the mask of her crazy b*tch.
She also has her talent for black magic, so she is called a witch at the end of the game and appears as a boss.
The relationship between the two is a saint and a witch.
The antagonists of each other’s stories.
These two just met in front of the imperial party.
“Has it been peaceful?”
“… Saintess.”
France’s face contorted in an instant. It’s as if she’s met someone she doesn’t want to meet at all. Not even that. I still can’t forget what I heard then.
‘Still, now is my chance.’
Is he a player, or is he just a ruthless madman? A chance to confirm your identity. I hope you get some clues.
Somire smiles and waits for France’s greeting. Frances opened her eyes shallowly and continued her words.
“I don’t think we are meant to say hello like this.”
“Oh, I think you are still bothered by what I said last time.”
What is that crazy b*tch? I was genuinely curious. What was in that year’s head?
“I was sorry last time. Please forgive me.”
“If it was going to come out like that, you shouldn’t have done anything to be sorry about.”
The crown prince was furious at France’s answer, as if he had a thorn in it.
“Princess Descartes! Don’t you have no social skills?! Somire gave the sign of reconciliation first… !”
I don’t think you have any social skills. A guy like that would later become an A-class sword master, so the future of the empire was bleak.
“Do you know what the saint said to me?”
France stares at the crown prince with a sly smile. She smiled and followed her words.
“Your Highness would be surprised to hear it. What did that b*tch say to me?”
“… I don’t know what they said to each other, but don’t insult Somire anymore. There is a limit to my patience.”
“What are you going to do if you can’t stand it? You’re not trying to order Chuck with Duke Descartes, are you?”
A lot. The prince gritted his teeth. The wriggling of the temples must have raised the hot-blooded trait. It seems I wasn’t the only one who noticed this.
“Your Highness. Please relieve your anger. I am fine.”
“Somire… ! How can you be so infinitely nice!”
Oops, I’m f*cking.
“I did something wrong to Princess Descartes. It is up to the princess to accept her apology.”
Afterward, the prince said, “Ah- Somire… !” As he shuddered at this sh*t, he openly demonstrated in front of the woman he loved that he was her caregiver.
“Then have a good party.”
Somi-re walks leisurely to the party after greeting lightly in royal manners. The prince also entered right next to her.
‘I didn’t even have time to confirm my identity.’
Well, I’ll be able to keep an eye on you at the party, so there’s still a chance.
“Meeting that b*tch from the start, it’s too bad to be unlucky today.”
“That’s right. Seeing the two of them meet from the start, it seems like a bad day.”
Afterwards, Frances let out her light sigh and looked up at the sky.
“We still have time, so let’s get some fresh air. If you go in now, it will be difficult to manage your expression.”
“I see. Would you like to go to the garden?”
“… Do you know the structure of the imperial family?”
… That’s why I’m asking a sharp question.
“I came as the first prince.”
Of course it’s Gurada. The only place in the game where I wondered if there was a hidden piece that hadn’t been discovered yet was the imperial garden…….
“I see. Then let’s go to the garden.”
“This way.”
I led France to the imperial garden. This is the second most familiar place to me after the ecliptic. There are many things hidden in the imperial family, so I’ve been wandering around for a long time…….
“… It’s definitely beautiful like an imperial garden.”
“Isn’t it? I just wanted to show you the way.”
A variety of colorful flowers bloom in the imperial garden regardless of the season. As far as I know, the court mage put a spell on the flowers to control the blooming and dying, or something.
“I feel relieved.”
The magic on the flower petals glistened in the moonlight. A sight that cannot be easily seen anywhere else. It’s definitely different when you see it in game graphics and see it in real life.
I looked at the back of Frances, who was looking at the flowers with a smile.
“The ball… ….”
The moment I called Frances. Cheer! Suddenly, an excruciating headache came over me. This time, the pain was incomparable to the previous one. It’s like drilling a hole in your skull with an electric drill.
“Ugh…… !”
The world is turning dizzy. Unknowingly, I grabbed the official and knelt down on his knees.
“Why? What’s happen?”
“Heo Eok… ! Omg!”
A scene passed through my mind. On a moonlit night, in the imperial garden, Frances is sitting on a bench and Jean is standing behind her.
「What do you think?」
「… I just agree with the princess’s thoughts.”
「That’s not fun. I thought you would give me a different impression.”
「…… Sorry.”
We even talk to each other. What the hell is this
This time, there was no voice saying that the synchronization would deepen. What was the scene that just passed, and why do I feel this headache?

“Breathe!”
Whoops! With the sound of breathing, the breath started to turn. I must have stopped breathing without realizing it.
“… It’s fine now.”
“Could it be that the disease has worsened?”
“I guess so.”
France’s face became distraught. I didn’t want to show this as much as possible because it was a situation where I even lied about the time limit…….
“Don’t worry too much. When I go back, I will be treated by Kazar.”
“Is it okay if I don’t go back right away? It looked very painful…….”
You must not lose sight of your purpose. The reason we attended the imperial party was not simply to enjoy the party.
“This is a pain I often feel, so it’s okay. This won’t happen during a party.”
“It’s not that kind of problem… !”
“Princess. Don’t lose sight of your purpose. Do you intend to destroy everything you have built up so far?”
I purposely said it strongly. Right now, Frances is in a state where she can’t judge properly because of my worries. She’s here so she can’t ruin everything.
“… Okay. If you really say so…….”
Fortunately, Frances calmed down and shook her head. I also brushed my knees and got up from my seat.
“Sorry for suddenly showing such rudeness.”
“Even to the point of being ugly… ….”
“Now, please enter the party hall.”
You need to freshen up the atmosphere and change the subject. That would give Frances a little peace of mind.
“Yes. Time is running out, so let’s go.”
That time when I was about to leave the imperial garden and enter the party hall.
“… Frances Descartes.”
Someone called Frances again. Who else is this time? I groaned and looked back. The one who called her was none other than Cassus Persia.
‘Ha. Even if today is really unlucky, it’s a dirty day.’
* * *
Kassus Persia.
There are three modifiers to call him.
A person who can be said to be the rival of Eden Descartes in the two ducal families that make up the two major mountain ranges of the empire.
The former fiancé of Frances Descartes.
And the character trait, sociopath. In the women’s section, characters like this are popular as scheming male leads or something.
“Duke of Persia. Have you been at peace?”
Kathus gazes at Frances with shallow eyes. Of course, the greeting was chewed.
‘What is the thing that Ji called and said hello to?’
You really don’t understand. Even when he announced the breakup to France, he said it as if he had a blade on his tongue.
“It’s been a while.”
After a long time, you will be greeted. What is it, the atmosphere is different.
“By the way, what did you call me for? Didn’t you say the other day that it would be nice if we didn’t have anything to do with each other?”
Sure. He’s a bastard who doesn’t keep his word.
“I haven’t forgotten about the rumors.”
Did you speak out of vengeance? There is life in the voice. Apparently, he had a hard time because of rumors that he was gay.
“This is the end of what I have to say. Then.”
Just like that, Karthus enters the party hall. Me and Frances met eyes automatically.
“I never thought he would come out so aggressively. You must have had a hard time.”
“I guess so. I deliberately prepared such rumors to make you suffer.”
“Will I get revenge?”
“I will. But it doesn’t matter. If you succeed in business, you won’t be able to touch it easily.”
“Does my ability grow?”
I nodded. The achievement of breaking down Frida, who had a monopoly on her clothing in the empire, is very great. Even Karthus wouldn’t be able to touch it easily.
“I have to work as hard as I can to avoid being wronged. Rather, I should win.”
Yes. That’s a good sign. You still haven’t forgotten what Karthus said, have you? I haven’t returned even half of what I received.
“Anyway. It’s a thing of the past now. Let’s go in.”
I climbed the stairs and came to the entrance of the imperial party hall, and a golden knight saluted with a knife-like angle and said.
“Let me check your invitation.”
As if she was used to it, Frances took out an invitation from her arms and showed it to her, and the imperial knight saluted again and opened the door.
“Have a good time.”
That’s how I entered the party hall. Unlike other party leaders, they don’t seem to tell you who entered.
“Now, what shall we do?”
“Hmm. How is the imperial party going?”
“… You said you came as a member of the royal family, but don’t you know the schedule?”
You ask a sharp question again. I can’t help it. I have no choice but to play Gura again.
“We met politically, but I never participated in a party. I’m not interested in parties either.”
France explained the schedule of the imperial party while saying hehehe.
The imperial party lasts for two days. The nobles who came first enjoyed the first day under the leadership of the crown prince and had time to interact. And on the second day, the emperor and empress directly participate.
“Perhaps the prince and the princess will also participate today.”
“Then I will have to give you information about the clothing store today.”
“Yes. And tomorrow, when His Majesty returns, wear the dress Andrea gave you.”
Then you can show the dress to the duke and the emperor at the same time. The empress would probably be very interested. If so, the advertising effect of France clothing store has been successful. If you only do that work here.
‘France’s dress will spread widely to nobles, starting with the Empress.’
That will bring about a fad. Because it’s a completely different type of dress.
“Then today must be important.”
“Yes. We need to instill as much hope as possible.”
It’s anticipation. In a word, you have to shake your mouth well.
“Then let’s make a plan.”
I explained to Frances how to leak the information.
The content that a new brand will emerge to compete with Frida, who was roughly monopolizing clothing. However, it received a huge investment, and the information was that the building was unusual.
“… But will it be okay?”
“What are you talking about?”
“You’re hiding the fact that it’s a trademark I made.”
“No problem with that.”
“Why? Could it be a problem later?”
Originally, a business only needs to have good results. In a word, you just need to pick out the dresses and suits very well.
“Such a trivial problem would not be a problem for the operation of the store.”
“How can you be sure of that?”
“Because the first customer of our clothing store will be Her Majesty the Empress.”
Originally, advertisements have models.
The first customer to receive a dress from France Clothing Store will be the Empress.
We’re going to give it to you.
What kind of aristocrat would curse the empress’s clothing store?
