Chapter 47: Prince of Smiles

Ellen meant that Ricardo did not resemble Yuri in the slightest when she thought 『This is different from what I had expected ( ´_ゝ`)』, whereas Ricardo who approached Yuri and Ellen’s tea party also thought 『This is different from what I had expected . 』 .

He was expecting a blooming young woman, who was aiming for the Ricardo, surely using Yuri as a stepping stone, however, the one at Yuri’s tea party is a seemingly lively girl with somewhat troubling pitch black eyes[1], black curly hair that reaches up to her shoulders, a hair ornament in the shape of a white flower fastened on the back of her head, and is wearing a simple dark green dress, who seems younger than Yuri .

No matter how he looked at her, she was too young .

Incidentally, the basis for choosing the hair ornament was 『Whether or not it resembles the flowers in the garden of the Royal Palace』 .

Ellen is quite fired up about hide and seek in the Royal Palace .

She was laughing as he drew nearer to the tea party and their eyes met, and she had a 『Ge[2] ( ´_ゝ`)』 expression as she looked away .

Almost all young women who see Ricardo’s smile normally blush, are spellbound as they stare at him, or have a glint in their eye as they look at their prey .

Ricardo is aware of his wickedness, and is confident in his acting abilities .

His mother and first younger sister seem to have slightly uncovered his wickedness, but it appears his second younger sister and Yuri haven’t yet .

In pa.s.sing, he does not understand what his father, the King, is thinking .

Even in the academy, the people who are aware of Ricardo’s wickedness are scarce; He is called the 『Prince of Smiles』 in the academy; Ricardo is surrounded by plenty of followers, but only those who are aware of his wickedness are his future prospective aids .

The people who couldn’t perceive his degree of wickedness would not be able to compete with future scheming n.o.bles .

Most of the ones that did perceive Ricardo’s wickedness noticed it, noticed it shortly after they started talking in an a.s.sembly .

The only person in the school’s entrance ceremony who had the same 『Ge ( ´_ゝ`)』expression Ellen made just now when their eyes met was the fourth son of a ducal household .

A while after they got along, he heard that the fourth son noticed Ricardo’s smile was suspicious at a glance .

The name of the fourth son is Leonardo, and he became one of Ricardo’s very few trusted friends .

Ellen had the same 『Ge ( ´_ゝ`) 』expression Leonardo had and then she looked away, and after thinking it over for a bit, then she suddenly altered her expression and started twisting and turning unnaturally .

Yuri and his maids who saw this looked baffled .

『Could it be that this girl noticed?』

The perceptive Ricardo thought so, suddenly becoming interested in the young woman he thought to treat noncommittally just a while ago .

His close friend, Leonardo, also had black hair and eyes, and had a slightly similar aura to Ellen .

真っ黒なまあるい瞳 – unsure of this part since maarui was in hiragana instead of kanji so I couldn’t tell which one it was for certain . it’s an exclamation of either surprised disappointment, disgust, or worry .
