Chapter 50
Happy Monday and Happy Lunar New Year!
I had a bit of trouble editing this, so if you spot any mistakes, either grammatically or just translated wrong, let me know. Thanks as always.
Also, one of you readers mentioned to me that theres no wikia for this novel, so if any of you are interested in creating one for this novel, please go right ahead.
As always, I hope you enjoy this chapter.
Authors Note:
Liams POV will be included in the middle.
(There was another author note in this chapter about submitting ideas for the novels ending, but I didnt include it because 1. The author planned to end the story around 100 chapters, but the story has already exceeded that number, so that doesnt apply anymore, and 2. The deadline, Heisei 29 (2017) June 30th, has already passed. As such, it no long applies to us, but I thought some of you mightve liked to know this, so I mentioned it here.)
While I was whispering with Amelia, it became noisy behind us.
Theres no way that Kirika-sama would lose to that kind of barbaric human! Everyone, wake up! Isnt it obvious that he cheated!!
After that voice sounded, the noise became louder and louder.
I thought I heard that voice that was inciting them somewhere before, it was the guy that I took as hostage some time ago.
He was shouting at us from under the stage.
Hes the guy who tried to kill Amelia, even though I made him experience something that was more or less painful, he didnt learn.
Liam, how did he cheat just now?
Amelia bluntly said that while coldly looking down at him.
Yes, yes, his name was Liam.
I dont remember the names of ikemens.
That also included the hero.
As far as Im concerned, Amelia had become more imposing.
Thats good.
Instead of assertively coming out, Liam flinched at Amelias words.
Maa, thats because Amelias killing intent was incredible as well.
Especially since shes hungry right now, shes even more irritated.
I turned my back on Liam so that I could descend the stage from a different place.
It seems that you are also blind. Or should I say as expected of an unwanted child? You were still better back then, but as expected, you are an existence that will bring about a calamity to your brethren. Conspiring with humans.
I grabbed Liam by the collar, and dragged him up onto the stage.
Perhaps I used a little too much strength, Liam was down on the floor, coughing.
Without even waiting for his coughing to stop, I kicked his side and made him look towards me.
Guuu!? hiii!!!
The instant Liam saw my face, he gave a small shriek.
What a rude guy.
Wasnt I just strongly emitting killing intent with a bit of intimidation?
Aah, but, it seems like its been a while since Ive been so furious.
I havent lost my temper like this since, the time in middle school when my younger sister Yui encountered a pervert on the train.
I unexpectedly came across him that time, and I beat that perverted man until those around me stopped me.
As one would expect, they even contacted my mother and the school, and for some reason, my mother and I had to apologize to the man, but as soon as we got home, my mother praised me, saying I did well, and I was hugged by my younger sister.
Although my mother had a weak constitution, she had a merciless personality, but it seems that she was truly scared.
Because of this matter, I was still labeled as a siscon until I graduated middle school.
Now, it was a memory I fondly look back on.
Come to think of it, before I give this guy a good thrashing, I have to confirm something.
Naa, Amelia, who is this guy to you? Or to Kirika?
When I asked, Amelia thought about it a little, as if puzzled, and then opened her mouth after recalling it.
He was, my fianc. He was always by my side when I was little, but after being charmed by Kirika, he became Kirikas fianc.
hee, so this kind of guy was your former fianc.
Even though he used to be, it was somewhat unpleasant.
Because Amelia, was now mine.
Alright, lets beat him half to death.
Hi, hiiiiiiiiii!!
Now then, what did you say just now?
Seeing Liam extremely frightened and unable to speak, I looked over my shoulder at Amelia.
When I asked her if I was making such a scary face, she responded by saying that it was scary.
I was slightly shocked, when Amelia said that to me.
Maa, its fine. If youre that dissatisfied, then Ill have a duel with you, or if you cant fight, your substitute. With that, there shouldnt be any complaints.
I briefly suppressed my anger, and very gentlemanly talked to him.
Since it would make me more irritated if we dont finish this.
However, Liam was still groveling at my feet.
Perhaps I laid the intimidation on too much and he couldnt get up.
The match was already decided with this, but because too many were dissatisfied in the end, the king also acknowledged it, and its been decided that well have another match.
Incidentally, Kirika had not woken up yet.
It seemed like she would wake up at any time since I didnt use that much strength to hit her, but perhaps I made a mistake, or shes continuing to pretend to have fainted.
-Liams POV
Liam-sama, please let me be your substitute!
No, I will punish the human brat!
We must punish him for looking down on our goddess! I, the chief attendant of you, the fianc of Kirika-sama, will go!
While my attendants were all volunteering themselves, I didnt say anything and closed my eyes.
My memories, were spinning around one by one in my head, getting all jumbled together.
In addition, the words of my attendants were mixed in as well, it was too much.
Kirika-sama?
I was Kirika-samas fianc?
No, my fianc was Amelia-sama.
Living nobly and straightforwardly even when told that she would bring about a calamity, those beautiful eyes and hair were the treasures of the elves.
Certainly, Kirika-sama was also strong, and beautiful, but she could not be compared to Amelia-sama.
And yet, why were the scenes of me bullying Amelia-sama, making false accusations and exiling her from elven territory, and exchanging vows to be Kirika-samas fianc appearing in my head.
Kirika-samas distorted smile during the exchange of nuptial cups, flickered in my mind.
I see!
I was told by Kirika-sama that I was being called by Amelia-sama, and I went to that plaza.
No matter how long I waited, Amelia-sama didnt come, and when I finally got tired of waiting and was about to return, Kirika-sama appeared and kissed me.
I was not able to react to something so sudden, and because there was a difference in our status, I was not able to shake her off either.
After that, I could not think about anything except Kirika-sama..
Aah, I remembered. Ijust what did I do.
Aah, Amelia-sama, I am terribly sorry.
It was my mistake for not being able to notice Kirika-samas insanity.
My feelings for Amelia-sama gradually disappeared within me, as though submerged deep within the sea, and I, who, on the surface, thought of Kirika-sama, worked together with Kirika-sama and spread this thing that was like a curse.
Even for women and children, it was effective, though weak, and it reached that point where, including the king, the high elves, and everyone from the royal family all doted on Kirika-sama, and ignored Amelia-sama.
It was like, the Amelia-sama and Kirika-sama from before.
Kirika-sama certainly looked lovely.
However, no matter how much she looked like Amelia-sama, Amelia-sama was still more beautiful, everyones attention was all on Amelia-sama.
Was Kirika-sama, unable to take it anymore.
However, everyone acknowledged Kirika-samas abilities.
If Amelia-sama excelled in her studies, Kirika-sama excelled in martial arts.
Both sisters were exceptional people.
As expected of the royal family.
The two people were the treasures of us elves.
I needed to stop Kirika-sama.
No, I will go.
