Even the assassin blinked as if he didn’t understand the situation.
After a moment of silence, Klaus grinned again and raised his arms.
“Oh my. Looks like it was just a needle.”
“Well, that’s right!”
The assassin who found the surviving corner also nodded repeatedly with a happy face.
However, when Klaus turned around, his face was expressing colder anger than ever.
Klaus declared in a cold voice.
“But I can’t forgive you for sticking a needle into the prince’s body.”
“……yes?”
“Take it out.”
what? What?
Among me, my family, and the imperial attendants who couldn’t understand what was going on and just blinked, Rudeat was the first to come to his senses.
“What are you doing? You are a traitor who harmed the royal family! Take him away immediately!”
“Yes, yes!”
The imperial family members, who were still unable to come to their senses, dragged the attendant, who was also unable to come to his senses.
The servant’s miserable voice echoed from beyond the dining room.
“I feel wronged! I feel wronged, Your Highness!”
“I should have gone to the imperial palace to talk about the details, but I can’t give up until the end.”
The sound of Klaus clicking his tongue clearly pierced my ears.
Time that had stopped began to flow again.
Many of the count’s servants, who had not come to their senses until then, also hastily tried to resolve the situation I had caused.
And then I understood.
Klaus That guy is clearly a leading character with some kind of ability.
A person who can break down poison, is immune to poison, or has ingested so much poison that most extreme poisons only cause mild paralysis as a side effect.
And only a few people, including Rudyard, would know that.
‘Oh, really. ‘You’re living a difficult life as a main character.’
I glanced at Klaus with a look of sorrow and encouragement. And it was that moment.
Our gaze met Klaus’ dark red eyes.
‘Oh, no. Why are you making such a fuss when you see this place?’
I quickly withdrew my gaze filled with sympathy and sadness and looked somewhere on the floor.
The cooking king scenario has already passed. So, is this a development that catches the prince’s attention by catching the assassin?
Just in case, I raised my head again.
And then I meet Klaus’ eyes again, who look at me with cute eyes-
Of course that didn’t happen.
Klaus took his gaze away from me and naturally turned to Count Sebes.
The Count was so nervous that he straightened up as he approached me for a light handshake.
“I’m so sorry about this, Count.”
“Oh, no!”
“It looks like the idiot brought a needle or something by mistake. My younger brother misunderstood and the party atmosphere was ruined. But the steak was delicious, so I was treated well. Let’s stop here for today’s dinner.”
“I’m glad you were treated by His Highness the Prince. Sir, if there was any inconvenience.”
“That didn’t happen, so I guess you don’t have to worry about it.”
Klaus nodded at the poor fidgeting count, then closed his mouth again and crossed his arms.
While I was glancing at him, Rudiot concluded the situation.
“I’m sorry. I will write to you again soon.”
“His Majesty Rudeat.”
“I’m just sorry that you couldn’t enjoy the banquet prepared for us due to our servant’s negligence.”
“Oh, no, Your Highness. I will await your letter.”
“I would appreciate it if you could.”
… … There’s definitely something to this setting.
I watched the two princes say something to the count.
It was easy to see that those two princes played important roles in this world.
But I couldn’t think of what I should do to blend in with the development.
In the first place, these are the people who will leave this count’s residence tomorrow.
“……I don’t think we’ll be holding a prom or any other event in this state.”
Is there a chance that my little sister will make a fuss about having a prom?
When I glanced at Lariette, I saw that she was biting her lip and glaring in the direction where Rudeat and Klaus were.
okay. Lariette also seemed to have prepared a lot of things for the banquet.
Besides, weren’t his cheeks flushed somehow when he first said hello to Klaus and Rudyard?
‘You must be very heartbroken when things turn out like this.’
I carefully approached Lariette and tapped her shoulder.
“I’m sorry, Lariette.”
“No. I’m glad the assassin was caught thanks to my sister. Otherwise, greater harm might have come to our family.”
I didn’t mean to, but yeah.
That must be because the results are good.
Lariette sighed lightly and nodded.
“I’m glad. His Highness Rudyard wasn’t hurt….”
“huh?”
“No. I have to go finish it. Sister, hurry and get it done too.”
Lariette’s attitude as she quickly turned her back was also very suspicious.
Lariette, have you fallen in love with Rudeat by any chance?
Leaving the banquet behind, which ended in an ambiguous atmosphere, the prince and his party were busy making preparations.
I had to listen to embarrassing compliments among the kitchen maids.
“The young lady made a food I had never heard of, and when I asked what kind of food it was, it turned out that she was trying to catch the person who was plotting an evil plan!”
“I heard that the lady who is good at cooking makes some strange things, but she has reached the point where she turns food into a weapon….”
“Anyway, he’s such a strange guy. What was he trying to do with a non-poisonous needle?”
“Anyway, looking at the reactions of the princes, it seems like they were planning something suspicious, right?”
“This is all thanks to the young lady’s brilliant plan in catching the evil plan!”
no! No! I made food because I thought everyone would enjoy it, you naive people!
I know that they truly thought I was great, but the compliments from the kitchen maids who treated the food I worked so hard to make as a weapon just made me uncomfortable.
“For some reason, anyone can see that it looks more like a weapon than a dish….”
“The young lady’s talent for decorating weapons like dishes….”
“The attack power was also enormous….”
I carefully made my way through the maids who were busy praising me and headed to the backyard.
The backyard was secluded and quiet. There was no sign of popularity, so I couldn’t hear any voices that reminded me of the bad history of cooking earlier.
I wandered around the backyard. The sound of grass rustling intermittently as I walked made me feel a little calm.
I decided to reflect on my situation with a calm mind.
Looking at the maids’ reactions, it seemed as if I had discovered the evil man’s evil plan in advance and showed my quick wit. If the princes thought the same way, there was a good chance that I would get involved with them.
For example, it means paying attention to me or keeping an eye on me. So maybe the relationship will develop further from here… … doing!
But the moment I thought, ‘This is a good opportunity!’, numerous faces came to mind.
The Duke of the North, Grandfather Magic Tower, Hamel who dumped me, kimchi in his eyes instead of his mouth, etc.
“……As expected, let’s not get excited for no reason.”
“Are you excited?”
“Oh, what a surprise!”
I was startled and turned around. And soon I was embarrassed.
“Oh, Your Highness Klaus.”
“Hello, young lady.”
“What did you say a while ago, Your Highness…?”
“Then is there anyone else here besides me?”
The dark red eyes were deeply sunken. He was a man with a high nose and tightly closed lips that gave off an arrogant look.
A mischievous smile appeared in his eyes as he roughly brushed away his disheveled black hair.
It seemed like that image would be hanging in an art museum as a famous painting with a title like “The God of Beauty.”
Oh, so to put it in one word, he’s handsome.
He’s really handsome. He looks even more handsome up close.
If I was surprised by his sudden appearance earlier, I was surprised now by how handsome he was.
Hey, that’s it. You just play the male protagonist. Out of all the men I’ve seen so far, you’re the one I like the most, so I’ll just make you the male protagonist.
While I was playing drums and janggu alone in a frantic mood, the most handsome man I had ever seen in this world, just like me, opened his mouth.
“Anyway, what kind of excitement are you talking about?”
I just asked a question, but the languid voice in my ear gave me a sense of responsibility, as if I had to answer.
thank god. At least this man’s identity as the prince is guaranteed.
If he had been a conman running around somewhere instead of a prince, I would have been so captivated by his handsome appearance that I would have given him all my money and still owed him everything.
‘Oh, wait a minute. ‘Is this an opportunity?’
What an event where I could meet such a handsome man of my type by chance in an empty backyard, and he would tell me something secret!
Isn’t this a situation where something is definitely going to happen!
‘Oh, no. ‘Try to calm down.’
Let’s give strength to our brain! Think of the misery of being kicked by Hamel!
I smiled awkwardly and tried to avoid the topic.
“Oh, no. The maids were excited. Ahaha.”
“Then it’ll be easier to talk about. What did they say?”
However, Klaus’ questioning did not stop. This handsome man seemed curious about my story.
In the end, no matter how much brain power I exerted, I couldn’t suppress the slight excitement, so I decided to tell this handsome man a little why he should consider me important.
“It’s nothing special, I just showed a moment of wit when I saw the servant who was trying to harm His Highness the Prince…”
Hey, look. I’m that kind of person with wit, huh? Now you should take me with you and prepare to write a romance, right?
But my words were not finished.
Klaus scoffed and shrugged his shoulders.
“It was really exciting. He fell and threw food on people, but luckily he turned out to be a suspicious person.”
“Yes, yes?”
“Don’t think that I really showed my wits in a moment. Just looking at it, I just fell.”
hey? Wouldn’t it be difficult if they knew that fact?
