The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today - Chapter 107



107 – Gongnyeo praises.

After harassing Mikhail with good chemistry with the head of the Imperial Knights.

I returned to Rebecca when the doll play was over.

“······Ah. Are you here?”

“…”

Of course, seeing my fiancé lying on the bed, tired of the world, made me sad for no reason.

“Are you okay?”

“No. It’s not okay.”

How many times have people changed like that?

Rebecca, who was obviously full of energy in the world even in the morning, was now making an expression like a civil servant who was tired of reality.

said Rebecca in disgust.

“I didn’t expect Dorothy to be so serious about her wedding dress.”

“Isn’t this all the wisdom of the princess who has a deeply loyal maid?”

“······Don’t make fun of us. I’m really tired right now.”

“Are you that tired?”

“yes······.”

At the gloomy words that seemed like everything in the world was annoying, I slowly approached the bed.

prison-

Then he gently held Rebecca in his arms.

“······Suddenly, what is it?”

“Somehow, this seems like the right thing to do now.”

“······joy.”

Rebecca gave out a low voice, as if she had already pouted, but she didn’t reject the hug.

“I’m glad my husband-to-be has noticed.”

“I’m honored that my wife-to-be thinks so.”

Instead of pushing me away, Rebecca turns around and embraces me with both arms.

Even though the wedding was really close, she was still a princess who was not honest.

“······It’s embarrassing. Don’t look at me like that.”

“Because my fiancée is so cute.”

I looked at Rebecca as if it were lovely.

Rebecca’s cheeks were already flushed red.

“I’m still in awe. How could you say such embarrassing things without the slightest distraction?”

“It will be difficult at first, but the princess will surely be able to do it.”

“······This is exactly the kind of tone I want me to do.”

“I won’t bother to lie.”

What man in this world would not like the affectionate words of the woman he loves?

Rebecca said that too, but she must have known it better than anyone else.

“Why don’t you try practicing at this point?”

“… you mean that?”

“Yes. I can’t always express myself to the princess, can’t I?”

“That’s true, but…”

Rebecca still couldn’t escape her hesitation.

It seems that it is still difficult for him to use such an openly (?) way of speaking as I do.

So, I decided to give this shy lady a kind helping hand.

“I can’t help it if you keep hesitating. I’ll use the wish ticket.”

“yes?”

“I remember winning the game quite a few times in the past. I’ll use one of them.”

“······You’re going to use that wish ticket for something like this?”

“Doesn’t the princess know that I spend my wish ticket on something like this more than once or twice?”

“…”

Rebecca’s mouth shut as if she couldn’t come up with anything to refute.

It was natural.

Rebecca, the person in charge, knows better than anyone that I have always used the Right of Wish this way.

He would probably be angry and want to refute, but he would have nothing to say.

Finally, Rebecca puffed up her cheeks.

“It’s petty.”

“I’ve always been a fiancé who was mean to the princess.”

“It’s really mean.”

“Thank you for the compliment.”

“It’s not a compliment.”

“I know.”

“······eww.”

Warak-

Rebecca tightened the arms that were holding me in anger.

It was clear that it was meant to be revenge in its own way, but in fact, it was just cute from the point of view of the victim.

It’s not like hugging a teddy bear.

Who the hell is talking about hugging the target to take off your anger when you take it off?

Except for the fact that Princess Munchkin’s power was stronger than expected, it must have felt like receiving a reward rather than a punishment.

“Why don’t you stop fixing it and grant my wish?”

“······What do you want me to do specifically?”

“Didn’t I tell you? Just as I praise the princess for her charms, you can compliment me as well.”

“How can you do that…”

how do you do that

how do i say that

Even though there was no obvious connection, it felt like I could hear the back story.

“Why can’t the princess do it? I’m talking like I’m eating.”

“but······.”

“It doesn’t make sense that the princess, the next Duke of Valencia, can’t do something that even a person like me can succeed easily.”

“······Okay. You can just do it.”

Whoa-

After speaking, Rebecca took a deep breath.

As if what he had to do now was a terrible ordeal for him.

“······Princess.”

“Why are you calling?”

“If you can’t do it, you don’t have to.”

Seeing that, I felt sorry for nothing.

I wondered if I was putting shame on my fiancée for no reason with a childlike mindset.

It was true that I wanted to see the cute side of Rebecca complimenting me, but I didn’t want to burden her.

Then, Rebecca shook her head as if not at all.

“No. I can.”

“······Until just now, you showed a lot that you didn’t want to do it.”

“Because, like you said, you can’t always express yourself to me.”

“yes?”

“I also want to express… the feeling of loving you…”

Rebecca’s confession that came out at an unexpected timing.

“…”

I was diligently organizing the sentence I just heard in my head.

I want to make sure I heard it right.

I wondered if it was true that such words came out of Rebecca’s mouth, who immediately blushed and turned her head when she heard only unfamiliar words.

It was the first time.

What Rebecca said she wanted to imitate me.

That said, he wanted to imitate me in the expression of affection, which he hated at first.

“So, just wait for now. I’m preparing my heart.”

“······Is that so?”

“Yes. At least until dinner.”

“It’s taking longer than expected.”

Of course, as I said, it may take longer than expected.

It didn’t matter how much.

I could have waited long enough.

Because it is natural for a fiancé to escort and wait for his fiancée.

“Are you dissatisfied with the long wait?”

“I can’t believe it. My fiancée, whom I love, is honored to give me compliments.”

“…”

“Instead, you’d better stop thinking about leaving this room until you compliment me like the princess said.”

“Are you proud to say that you will imprison your fiancé?”

“Yes. Do you have any complaints?”

“······I’m so proud that I have nothing to say.”

Rebecca shook her head as if she couldn’t stand it.

“I never thought my fiancé would dare to say he would commit a crime.”

“Then, do you intend to report ‘Alber Zernias’ to the imperial family as a criminal?”

“What can I do? I fell in love with this kind of person. I, who has a broad heart, must endure everything.”

“I don’t know what to do with the grace of a heavenly princess.”

“I think it would be better if you treated me with that thought on a regular basis.”

“Do you really think so?”

I know Rebecca’s words are a bad joke, but I’m curious.

Is Rebecca really wanting me to treat myself a little higher than I am now?

Maybe, maybe maybe, maybe I should change.

I asked Rebecca with some anticipation.

“Can I treat you with the formality of the princess like now?”

“You know it’s a joke.”

“It’s not like that, I can change it like that if you really want it like that.”

“Really?”

“of course.”

“Hmm…”

Rebecca’s clear red eyes turned to me.

It’s as if I’m trying to figure out if I’m suitable for the current question.

As if he were checking to see if his thoughts and the way I look now match.

Then, the gathered red lips opened in an instant.

“Hmm. I don’t think so either.”

“yes?”

“It means nothing you expect.”

“If it’s what I expect…”

“Unfortunately, Albert Zernias, whom I like, is not a person who adjusts himself to others.”

Rebecca’s red eyes were still looking straight at me, but at the same time they were shining like a mischievous child.

“A person who is always pissed off when they try to make fun of me, but that much consideration for me is embedded in every action.”

“…”

“Even if they seem to be just going out without thinking, when you get to know them, they are people who act after thinking deeply.”

“…”

“That’s the person I love, you.”

I thought that everything that I had been shy about until now was just ground work for now.

“Ah. Your face is red.”

“…”

“They always made fun of me for turning my face red. How does it feel when you turn red?”

Rebecca’s sentence this time made my face red.

I had no idea that the heartfelt words I had spoken without thinking were such powerful weapons.

“······I don’t know what I’m saying right now. Princess Gongnyeo is the same.”

“yes?”

“The princess’s face was also stained red.”

“…”

A weapon that is so powerful that it can damage you as well.

On that day, each other’s faces were stained so red.

Me and Rebecca held each other silently until Dorothy came to announce it was time for dinner.
