Breaking Off The Engagement… Bring It On! Chapter 56

I managed to escape from Leon-sama's room and headed to the audience hall.
Three people were waiting there, wondering what happened.
Seems they were worried about me as they looked impatient when I entered.
I briefly explained the events from a while ago.

"Fu, huhu" although father is laughing, his eyes are scary.

The king is getting cold feet looking at father's appearance.

Rachel-sama hid her mouth with her favorite fan, and with sparkling eyes said "Honestly, this child… If you train him now, right?".

Well, I've given explanation so it's time to get going.
If you run away you win.
I looked at father.
He nodded at me with a rea.s.suring look.

"Your Majesty, I will take Lillina home for today. Please release Ricardo when he reaches a good stopping point. Well, I think he can get out of it by himself somehow… But Prince Leon's obsession with Lillina is too strong, he may become overly inquisitive with Ricardo, so please take care of him."

Without waiting for king's reply, father took me outside.
Is it fine to ignore the king?
Anyway I wonder if I can finally go home.
I decided to return to mansion with father.

Sana, Allen-kun, Ange-sama greeted me when I returned to the mansion.

"""Welcome home, Lillinsama!"""

Although I came home with my father, only I was greeted.
To begin with, my father is the lord.
Father laughed without taking offense at such greeting.

"Lillina is liked by everyone, I'm glad you have so many friends."

Father said so and headed to his room.
Everyone's gaze made me feel that I should explain what happened, so we moved to my room.

Sana and Ange-sama prepared tea when we got there.
Come to think of it, indeed, I may be thirsty.

I took a sip of the served tea and let out a breath.
Allen-kun noticed that I unconsciously sighed "Fu~~".

"Thank you for your hard work, Lillina. You seem pretty tired, are you okay?"

Sana and Ange-sama were looking at me anxiously.
I spoke with a smile to rea.s.sure everyone.

"Thank you for your concern. I’m fine. "

After saying that, I explained to everyone what happened today.

"You've done it… Prince" Sana

"I agree with seeing the bright light while seeing Lillinoneesama, but I don't suddenly want to propose" Ange-sama

"… Holding your hand the whole time? If he wants to hold a hand, I will crush it." Allen-kun

Wait a minute.
You can't Allen-kun.
Your power is really too much.

It was rough criticism of Leon-sama.
After that, there was a storm of abuse towards Leon-sama.
Let me honestly say. All that abuse made me want to hold my head.

After a while, I heard a knocking noise.
The door opened before I could reply… There stood my brother.
Somehow, he looked worn out.

"Lillina~~ You seem to have returned safely."

My brother seemed tired and immediately sat down on a chair.
Sana carefully prepared a cold drink.
As expected of Sana!

"Ricardo-sama, here, please."

"Oh, thanks, Sana!"

Brother smiled, took it and drank it all at once.
I drank a little bit and we started talking about Leon-sama.

"After Lillina managed to escape, it was terrible. Prince Leon wouldn't stop trying to get information about Lillina out of me. He was holding my arm the whole time… There are still traces left."

Oh!
It's amazing to leave a mark on brother.
It's basic damage, so brother should recover soon.

"And right away he started getting noisy about meeting you again… He was persistent. It was a good thing Rachel-sama came when I was in trouble."

"Did Rachel-sama come to Leon-sama’s room?"

"Oh, yes. But really, I was saved. I could do it with brute force, but I can't do such a thing to a prince. It was just like Rachel-sama to stop Prince Leon there. With a single blow too."

"Huh? A… blow?"

"Oh, it was a blow alright. The fan hit Prince Leon at a speed I could barely follow with my eyes. He collapsed with a single blow."

Sounds just like Rachel-sama.
What an inspiring person she is after all.

"And, I finally got out after Rachel-sama felled him."

"Uh, thanks for your hard work."

My brother said he was a little tired and went back to his room.
Sana looked anxiously at his back.

"… Sana. If you’re worried, you can go look after elder brother."

"I am worried! It's just… I've never seen him tired like this before…"

Jeez, you're not being honest.
Perhaps brother is so worn out because he had to do heavy work.
I wonder how to deal with Leon-sama who has no memory.
I’m not sure what to do next.
Leon-sama seems fine and I wonder if perhaps he can remain this way.
