I began my day by thinking about how I should put Hasin and Elyne together, so they could be a couple. However, the world wouldnât allow me to do what I wanted.
âEnvoy visiting?â
This was a schedule I had never heard or seen before.
They were so excited because this was the official schedule, which I had never heard of ever. By the way, why did I have to go out when the envoy was coming? When I frowned openly, Serira grabbed my shoulder with a smile.
âItâs a goodwill visit from the Andurus. Their royal family was coming in person, so you have to go see them too.â
âBut I donât want to go outââ
I really didnât want to go out, but if I didnât do my work just because I didnât want to, then I really wouldnât deserve to be a princess.
Both Serira and Elyne did not worry about me whining because they knew that I would do it eventually. Sure, yeah, I was a bit of an easy woman to deal with, but these guys were too much. Sob sob.
Enough with the whining. Eventually, I acknowledged the reality with some sigh. All I ever did was eat, sleep, and play since I was born, and now, itâs my time to pay it all back. Still, itâs a bit burdensome. I was always scared of going out to a crowded place. I wasnât like a singer on stage, but I thought Iâd never get used to it.
âYou have to grow up now, too, Princess! You have to get used to this!â
Elyne kibitzed me while standing by my side. Yeah, she was right, butâŚ
Hey, did he want to try it?
Elyne stepped back as I frown without any word. I just grabbed Assisi, who was beside me. Ugh, sob sob. Assisi, I just wished to live in a comfortable, unnoticed way, but why wouldnât the world leave me alone? I wonder if Assisi knew the reason why the world wouldnât leave me alone? Huh. Was it because I was so pretty? Was I really that pretty!?
⌠I was sorry. I thought I said something that I shouldnât have said.
âYes, well, my body is mine, but I donât own it, so I have to go out.â
If the world wanted me, how could I not answer that call?
Perhaps thatâs why the clothes that Serira brought for me were more colorful than usual. A round, dug neckline, elbow-length sleeve, and a chain of beads wrapped around a fluffy sleeve. Bell-lined skirts rose round like bells and fell plump just below my knees. Of course, there was no big decoration on the dress, but the delicate patterns were embroidered, making it so spectacular that no more decorations were needed. Of course, I usually wore fancy clothes, but this was a bit too much. Was there something else to help discourage foreigners?
