The Girl Who Unknowingly Became Harem Queen! 8 4S Beauties Of Diamond Academy

Maria's good mood from before instantly disappeared once she took in the appearance of the boy who just talked. He was cute, with a touch of handsomeness as you could tell that he was definitely going to grow up and be a major hottie in the future. Then again, this was the same guy who, even though he was a shoujo male lead protagonist, without the female main lead, Maria could mistake him for a shounen male harem protagonist. The temperature outside felt warm. A light breeze ruffled his raven hair; those piercing silver eyes of his were pointed in Maria's direction.

"...Y-Yo."

"Idiot."

'Well screw you too, a.s.shole!' fumed Maria as in her mind Dark Maria was flipping off the rude boy. Unable to sense Maria's anger, the boy, who was none other than the Crown Prince a.k.a the future love interest of the female heroine and number one on Maria's list of Who to Avoid, turned his attention to the other boy who stepped up beside him.

"So it's her, again. Count's Martin Rosendrey daughter who is low in IQ, annoying, unladylike, and straight up... distasteful." This time, expressing his dislike towards Maria was yet another one of the future heroine's harem members and the crown prince's best friend. Just like with the crown prince, one could tell that this boy, whose hair was the color of midnight blue, wearing black framed gla.s.ses, looked like one of those know it all, rich, arrogant kids, who looked down on those inferior to themselves.

"Hey, four-eyes, stop saying those rude things about Maria!" Maria almost cried tears of joy when she saw the one who was sticking up for her was Mai.

'Mai! You sweet, sweet girl! You're a truly good friend. Don't worry, I'll bring you cookies for sticking up for me.' Mentally, Maria was shedding tears of happiness, healing the pain of those hurtful words that were thrown her way. 'Hey, I'm only human and even though in novels those transmigrated females can walk it off, slapping the faces of others like a true OP boss. Sadly to say, that's not me. I'm weak! So please stop bullying me for something the past Maria did!' silently begged Maria, who was having to deal with the troublesome people that the original Maria offended.

"Such an unpleasant girl as you dares to talk back to Rei-sama!? Can you not see how the presence of you two is ruining the crown prince's mood?" spoke a fierce and angry female voice. Deep down inside, Maria had a bad feeling that when she encountered the crown prince and his loyal sidekick here that things would get worse. Why the heck did she have to go and jinx herself?!

In the garden by the fountain, Maria and Mai stood in front, while on their left stood the crown prince and four-eyes, though appearing on their right were four girls that to Maria spelled troubled. Now, remember when Maria was talking about all those female rivals that were against the heroine and her relationship with crown prince?

'Never knew I would meet the team so early in the beginning.' The 4S Beauties of Diamond Academy. When it came to popularity, beauty, wealth, and strength for females here at Diamond Academy, ranked at the very top was without a doubt is Isis, Mai's older sister, who students at the academy dubbed the 'Empress.' Though right under her were the 4S Beauties, the 'S' in the name standing for seasons, due to how each girl's appearance reminded people of a specific season.

Starting first with Natsumi Summer, the one who spoke before and was currently glaring at both Mai and Maria, the over the top red and gold details and pink rose design dress really complimented her fiery pink and reddish-orange omber hair, suiting her overbearing and fierce att.i.tude like the unbearable sun during summer. She was the daughter of Marquess Leonard Summer and his wife, Marchioness Haruko, who was the princess to some foreign kingdom.

"Alan-sama! Rei-sama! Please forgive these two's transgressions; even though they are in the wrong, it's not good to waste anger on those with low intelligence." This time speaking, using that sugary adorable voice of hers was Lily Bloomdale. When looking at Lily, one couldn't help but compare her gentle and moe-appearance to a flower that bloomed in the spring. Instantly becoming bewitched by those large lime-green eyes, blonde long curly bangs framed her cute face, while the rest was pulled up into two thick braided buns, decorated with pink, yellow, and light green flowers. Her dress was yellow, light pink, frilly, and over the top girly. The treasured and spoiled daughter of Earl Vidor Bloomdale and Countess Camilla.

"Is it just me, or is this the second time our intelligence was insulted?" Mai leaned over to whisper in Maria's ear.

"No, it definitely not you," Maria whispered back to her when a third girl began to speak.

"My crown prince, Maria has always been a stupid and pushy girl. Her obsession with you is truly unladylike and should be avoided." This time downgrading Maria in public with her sharp words was Belle Autumn, the Beauty of Fall, voice not too harsh and not too soft. Belle was the type of girl who always appeared mature beyond her own age, holding herself as better than everybody else. Earning the t.i.tle of Beauty of Fall, this was due to her chestnut brown wavy hair and honey-orange color eyes, wearing a violet dress. Belle father is Head of Magical Law Enforcement, one of the biggest departments in the Magic Bureau, while her mother just simply came from an aristocratic family.

Standing on the side, constantly taking insults, it made Maria want to leave yet her feet were rooted to the ground. She definitely had nowhere to run when she saw the final and fourth member of the 4S Beauties make her way towards them as the closer that elegant figure got did Maria understand why this girl had earned the t.i.tle, Beauty of Winter.

"What is your relationship with Richard-sama?" demanded the frosty princess. No hint of a smile on her face, being so close to her, Maria could've sworn she saw malice flash in this girl's eyes. Standing before her was Elsa Snow, a girl who was known to never smile with words that cut sharp like ice. She reminded Maria of an ice-fairy with her pale skin, icy-blue eyes, flowing snow-white and pale blue ombre hair, wearing a elegant indigo and midnight-blue dress with a glittery blue shawl. Even though Elsa father was a powerful aristocrat, it was her mother who got the most attention, seeing how she was once a famous opera singer, who Elsa idolized and later followed in her mother's footstep by becoming a popular idol.

At this question, Maria found herself speechless; from a side glance, Maria could see how this question caught the attention of both four-eyes and the crown prince. Maria was beginning to think she was cursed with bad luck with all the things she had been encountering lately, especially when these four major beauties made their appearance. Which gave Maria a feeling that her life was not going to get easier.

Though neither of the 4S Beauties could actually stand each other, due to having feelings for the same man, they also could not stand Maria. Why? Simply because they found her actions and unruly ways annoying and disgraceful. The original Maria always did things in a loud, foolish, and bossy fashion and that was a huge 'no-no' for these primadonnas. Things only got worse when it was obvious that the crown prince also did not like Maria, leaving the four to knock her down when in their crush's presence or ignore her like an outcast. The original Maria vainly looked up to these four primadonnas and always secretly wanted to be a part of their clique.

'Life, why must you hate me?'
