The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

The princess forcibly apologizes.

For my remarks that could be said to be the most blatant in the world.

“Are you joking with me now?”

The princess looked excited. Well, Rebecca must have been sure she would win.

I didn’t even just lose, but because I was beaten by a cowardly move. If the fever went up, it went up, but there was no way it would go down.

But as the saying goes, the best defense is offense. It was clear that the person who could get out of this situation would not be the one who bowed his head, but the one who came out more brazenly.

So I decided to go out even more brazenly.

“No, I’m very serious right now.”

“Then, what about the words you just said…”

“That was also a very serious remark. Princess.”

“····.”

From the gaze of the princess looking at me, I could feel the meaning of ‘there’s something like that.’

How on earth can I be able to express my meaning with my eyes when I am full of those thoughts? I have to say that she is a Munchkin princess too.

“Think about it. Was there anything you said you shouldn’t do while I was explaining the snowball fight to the princess?”

“·······It’s not like that.”

“Then that’s the end of the story. What more would you like to say?”

“····.”

In my still brazen tone, Rebecca seemed to have a lot to say.

But Rebecca did not object. Because there was not a single gap in my words.

I never told the princess that she shouldn’t use cowardly moves, nor did she tell me before the snowball fight started.

If Rebecca was really serious about this fight, it was right that such rules should have been negotiated in advance. But Rebecca didn’t. This situation was Rebecca’s karma, which she deserved sweetly.

There are so many things I want to say, but I don’t really have the words to say. Rebecca’s current situation was a situation where there was no answer, to put it simply, there was no solution.

“Aren’t you going to apologize?”

“Ha, did you expect me to apologize after winning in such a cowardly way?”

Rebecca refuses to admit defeat, as if she would never apologize to me, who rushed to apologize.

But really sadly. This time, I had a plan.

“I have no choice but to use another method.”

“······other way?”

Rebecca looked at me sharply, as if it was something else this time.

That sharp gaze, which seemed to contain life, was at a level that an ordinary person like me could not bear.

My desire to win against that crazy little princess made me endure.

“If Princess Rebecca doesn’t apologize to me, I’ll leave this room right away and tell her that Princess Rebecca is a Jomsaeng.”

“It’s a little life. What nonsense is that….”

“What if it’s not a jomsaeng that doesn’t keep what he said?”

“····.”

After hearing my words, the princess seemed confused and mixed with all kinds of thoughts.

Perhaps, ‘What is that crazy guy saying?’, ‘I’m sure I’ll do that.’ Maybe you’re thinking something like this.

“…are you kidding me?”

“Are you kidding me?”

“No. I don’t think so.”

In my serious tone, is this really a joke? The princess appeared to be enlightened. Oh, he’s really crazy. Called.

It meant that I was suddenly treated as a madman by the princess. I didn’t regret it.

Basically, to catch a tiger, you have to go into the tiger’s den, and to catch a villain, you have to become a villain.

It’s common knowledge that you have to be a madman in order to catch a crazy princess.

“Yeah, do whatever you want. People will believe what I say as a princess rather than what you say anyway.”

Realizing that it was impossible to convince me, Rebecca seemed to have decided to change her strategy and use her influence.

It wasn’t a bad way.

I am only the son of the Counts, and Rebecca was the only daughter of the Dukes of Valencia, one of the only two duke families in the Empire.

It was also natural to say that if Rebecca and I were talking at the same time, there would be a lot of people who believed Rebecca.

But there was one thing Princess Rebecca overlooked. It was the fact that I was Princess Rebecca’s fiancée.

“If the princess says so. As she said, I will let people know that the princess has attacked me.”

“Wait a minute, what?”

Princess Rebecca asks if she heard something wrong. But unfortunately, there was nothing wrong with the princess’s ears.

“I heard rumors that the princess tried to attack me by force.”

“What nonsense… that’s a lie!”

She was a princess who rebutted me with logical words.

“What does that have to do with the fact that the princess and I are the only ones who know what happened in this room.”

“····.”

It was of no use to me, who had already boldly decided to go out to win this fight.

As I said, the only people in this parlor right now were me and Rebecca. No matter what I said, only Rebecca could say that it wasn’t true.

“······Do whatever you want. After all, there is no one in the Duke of Valencia who would believe that I did such a thing.”

The princess, who was driven into a corner, was assertive as before, asking who would believe it.

There was a subtle difference between before and now.

“It’s natural for the people of the duke to believe what the princess said, not mine.”

“You already know. So don’t do anything useless, just be quiet.”

“But what if I tell them to other nobles other than those of the Duke of Valencia?”

“····.”

It seems he hadn’t thought of that.

Awkward expression passed quickly over Rebecca’s face.

Nobles who like gossip can’t miss out on such a provocative subject, because Princess Rebecca can’t be unaware.

Social aristocrats are crazy people looking for fun more than anyone else, and they don’t care about other people’s privacy or other people’s shame.

Even if it is a false rumor that is not true.

Perhaps the princess also realized that she had been caught wrong, and the voices she had been proudly claiming until now had gone and changed to a timid, trembling voice.

“······I think other nobles will believe that······.”

“I’ll believe you. Aren’t you worried right now because the princess knows it too?”

“····.”

Seeing Princess Rebecca’s eyes trembling like an aspen made me feel pretty bad.

The coolness of my stomach and the sense of victory that I finally won the fight filled me.

In the end, the princess who had her eyes dropped like that raised a white flag.

“·······What should I do?”

“Didn’t you tell me already? You can sincerely apologize to me for what I said earlier.”

“······do.”

what. what did you just hear

Princess Rebecca must have said something. The voice was so low I couldn’t hear it at all.

Naturally, I asked the princess to apologize again,

“Someone who used to be good at making loud noises at me until now. Now you have a lower voice than the sound of an ant crawling.”

“····.”

“If you don’t apologize straight away, I’ll tell you to publish the news that the princess attacked me in the newspaper linked to our count.”

“······Sorry.”

Rebecca apologizes in a human-audible level only after hearing my warning.

But I had no intention of forgiving Rebecca this much.

“Exactly. What specifically are you sorry about?”

“…you have to do that…”

It was Rebecca, who looked at me with resentful eyes, as if she had to torment herself that much.

“newspaper.”

“····.”

The only word that came out of me was the newspaper company, and I had no choice but to shut that pretty mouth.

“I’m sorry I did.”

“What? I can’t hear you well. Princess.”

“I’m sorry that I felt bad as soon as I saw you!”

In the end, it was Princess Rebecca who shouted and apologized to me.

Perhaps it was such a shame that he had tears in his eyes.

‘Wow, I won.’

Of course, I was intoxicated with the fact that Rebecca had defeated Princess Rebecca without regard to her, and that she received a respectful apology from Princess Rebecca.

But it’s not over yet. If you get something, you have something to go. Wouldn’t it be polite to forgive if you’ve been apologized?

“I heard the Princess’s apology. I will forgive her, especially considering the face of her fiancee, Princess Rebecca.”

“····.”

“In such a case, you should say thank you. Princess.”

“········ Leave it alone.”

The princess’ body was trembling as if in anger.

Obviously, the words are cruel. I was not afraid at all as I talked like that with tears forming in my eyes.

I have to say it’s like the expression on a 6-year-old child’s face when he loses the toy he was playing with. Anyway, it wasn’t really intimidating.

“I want to see you again. I was moved. Princess.”

“····.”

Not forgetting to tease Rebecca until the end. I walked out of the drawing room.

“Confucius, our Rebecca…?”

When I came out of the drawing room, the Duchess of Valencia, who had left me earlier, greeted me.

“It has been resolved smoothly, so you can rest assured.”

“Really? I’m glad.”

I only reported the facts (?) that happened to the Duchess.

Since I got an apology, maybe it should have been resolved smoothly.

“The princess said I’ll see you next time.”

“Is that really true?”

“Yes. It really is.”

“That’s fortunate…”

Seeing the Duchess of Valencia looking so relieved, one side of her chest hurt.

At least there were no lies in what I said.

maybe.
