Flora sighed, her breath trembling.
“Oh… I was surprised. I never thought that I would be able to talk to the prince.”
Flora held her chest, her cheeks flushed. Her figure was very lovely.
Even though the undesired third wheel (who was Ekaterina herself) clung to her, Flora managed to make the prince have a favorable impression on her. Maybe.
And after this, when the heroine was in danger because of the event, the prince would rush to her. Should be.
“He’s a friendly person.”
In that respect, Mikhail would be more popular with girls than Alexei. Flora was also impressed with the prince. To be honest, Ekaterina felt like she might become interested with the prince if she didn’t have the memory of her previous life because he was very nice. Then she would make the heroine suffer and become the villainess… shook.
Well. In the end, my most favorite character is Brother! A tsundere is the best!
Even so, having the ‘popular prince’ appear from the window of the classroom and ask for handmade cooking was such a template situation in romcom school-life shoujo manga. But then, that was the ultimate pleasure of an otome game.
Since Ekaterina’s background made her play this otome game world in the extremely hard mode, she was a bit overwhelmed with the life and history that didn’t appear in the game. This world had its own long history, everyone had their own life, the earth was probably round, orbiting the sun… Ekaterina’s eyes became slightly dizzy thinking about it.
But then, the strong existence of the game rules existed here as well.
So the destruction flag and the imperial ruin flag were right in front of her eyes!
In order to live while taking the burden of the villainess’ fate, Ekaterina had to do her best to break all of the flags!
That’s how Ekaterina clenched her fist in her heart.
In the end, Ekaterina didn’t want to brother Alexei. Even Alexei’s subordinates would be troubled if Duke Yurinova suddenly got demoted to be a commoner.
It’s scary to imagine what happened to Duke of Yurinova’s territory after Alexei and Ekaterina were sentenced in the game. If the reliable boss suddenly disappeared, the corporate slave would receive too much workload that they could even cry.
“As expected from Miss Yurinova. You’re very dignified when talking to His Highness.”
“My, I was surprised as well.”
After all, I even wanted to step back thoughtlessly…
The prince wasn’t bad at all, but facing someone who (might) ruin my life wasn’t good for my heart. I would be more relieved if he could enter the love mode with the heroine soon. ...I would, right?
A-anyway, Flora and Prince Mikhail suited each other. I’m also glad if they could live happily ever after.
Previously, I thought that the events in this game were just like the template romcom school-life shoujo manga, but looking at a beautiful boy and beautiful girl getting paired was also pleasing to eyes. In my current position, I could watch the young and innocent movie-like romance from the special seat. Rather, I could also help them, making me in an even better position. And both of them were good kids! This older sister would support them with all of her might!
...Huh? But I already decided that I wouldn’t approach the prince and talk to him since I was getting along with the heroine.
If I would support them, I couldn’t afford to do that…
Somehow, my measures against the destruction holes were full of holes...
B-but it couldn’t be helped!
The prince talked to me first. Ignoring him or showing disrespect to him were even more dangerous!
My plan changed again. The villainess was cheering on the heroine and the prince!
“Miss Flora will surely have more opportunities to talk to His Highness. After all, you are the most adorable lady in this academy. I’m sure he’s also interested in you.”
Flora’s eyes widened. “Eh, no. Impossible. The prince definitely—”
But Ekaterina cut her off. “I’m sorry, but I would like to mention one thing. Referring to Prince Mikhail using ‘the prince’ is not correct, so it would be nice if you could call him ‘His Highness’. It’s the small details, so please don’t worry too much about it.”
“That’s right. I will be careful. Thank you very much.”
Flora covered her mouth and blushed. Ekaterina smiled to cheer her up.
After that, Flora couldn’t say anything else. She secretly thought, ‘But I’m sure that His Highness is interested in Miss Yurunova. She’s beautiful, kind, and noble enough to balance His Highness’ status. Plus, her brother is close with His Highness… And yet, she seriously doesn’t realize that at all. How strange.’
Only Ekaterina knew that this world was the stage of an otome game, that she was the villainess, and that she was a corporate slave in her thirties in her previous life.
On the contrary, no one else ever imagined her to be a villainess.
In everyone’s eyes, Ekaterina Yurinova was the noble lady of the Three Great Dukes. She was respected among all nobles in this country and her family was wealthy. Not to say, her beauty was stunning enough to capture anyone’s heart. A fifteen-years-old girl with a sickly body who didn’t know much about the world.
Focusing on breaking the flags, accustoming herself on the unfamiliar school life, taking care of her brother’s health, and everything else made Ekaterina didn’t realize that gap. Just when would she notice it?
That day was unlikely to come for the time being.
