Even though Mia said she was going to make Prince Sion fall, she didn’t intend to do anything obvious like tripping him.
Of course, with Mia’s skill, doing something like that without being noticed would be no trouble.
However, that is only if her dress was longer, it would be difficult to hide it with the short skirt of the current dress.
In the first place, Mia does not want to attack Sion directly.
If she were to provoke his anger, she might end up going straight to the guillotine.
(Well, even if I don’t make him trip, I’m sure he won’t be able to keep up with my all-out dance moves and will get his feet tangled!)
She was taking him lightly, like that.
(I’m sure you’ll fall down and show an unsightly appearance!)
It was the perfect plan… at least in Mia’s mind.
And the result, …
[I thought you were the calm and gentle princess type, but surprisingly, you’re more on the playful side.]
Sion’s fresh and relaxed smile was in front of her.
(That is way beyond my expectations!)
While screaming inside, she takes even more difficult steps.
The way she twirls while dancing with her light steps is like a fairy dancing in a field of flowers. And her beautifull glossy skin is like the one of a goddess under the moonlight…
The people who were enjoying their dances stop one by one, and before long, Mia and his partner are the only ones dancing.
Soon after she started dancing like that, those who were making fun of her, saying that it was just because Sion was a good lead were forced to shut up.
All noble children knew that if only one of them danced well, they would be merely spinning around.
A brilliant dance that fascinates the audience can only be realized when both of them are highly skilled.
When Mia lightly turns her body.
Sion gently catches her and guides the dance to the next movement.
The lead is splendid and graceful.
As she was hugged gently, Mia’s heart flutters a little, unintentionally.
(Ah… wonderful…! No way! There is no way I can feel this guy is wonderful!)
Just when Mia was squirming in agony at her internal conflict, something came into her line of sight.
It was…
(Oh, is that Prince Abel?)
It was Abel, heading towards the bar counter holding two glasses.
Looking at the empty glass in his hands, …Mia couldn’t help but smile.
(A very kind person, for sure.)
Eventually, the song comes to an end.
Mia gracefully bows while holding the hem of her skirt.
[What do you think Princess Mia? If possible, I would like you to accompany me to a calmer song…]
[Thank you, but I’ll refrain. Prince Sion, isn’t there someone more suitable for you?]
You’re not good enough! That is the nuance she was trying to convey. She is just a sore loser though.
While the surprised Sion stared blankly at her, Mia left the place.
[Prince Abel!]
Abel was a little surprised when he saw Mia coming over. He was expecting her to dance two or three more songs.
That is because of how in tune the two of them were with each other….
Abel handed Mia the glass with her drink while smiling.
[Welcome back, Princess Mia. It was a wonderful dance.]
[Oh my, thank you for that.]
Abel was so dazzled by Mia’s shy smile that he had no choice but to look away.
[But still… I’m no match]
[What was that?]
[Prince Sion. Reality is, I can’t bring out your charm like him.]
He was determined to not lose next time. But the overwhelming difference in ability made him feel like he already lost.
However, Mia said…
[Thank you for the drink. It’s cold and very tasty.]
She sipped the juice that Abel had brought her and said…
[You are a kind and thoughtful person, Prince Abel.]
[If you thought I was going to get a drink only for myself, I’d be disappointed…]
[That is not it. You saw the dance was intense, and went back to replace it, right?]
When she pointed this out, Abel opened his mouth in surprise.
Yes, Abel went to get a drink as soon as the dance started. But when he saw Mia dancing, he thought it would be better to have something cold, since she would feel hot.
[Prince Abel, please don’t get down on yourself. You are very cool in your own way.]
The words were sincere and kind, which was unusual for Mia.
It was the first time she had been treated kindly by a boy her own age.
And not as an imperial princess, but as a girl…
She was so happy that she said something out of character.
[But if possible, I don’t want to lose to Prince Sion in dancing either…]
[If that is the case, I’ll teach you. I’m a very strict teacher, so be prepared.]
On that day, for the first time in her life, Mia was able to enjoy dancing to her heart’s content.
